Seeing that the thin boy had finished eating, Feng Zhou asked, "Do you want another bowl?"

The thin boy touched his mouth with the torn sleeve, patted his belly again, and said, "Go down one more bite, and this place will stretch out." ”

The two of them left the chaos stall together, and the thin boy had eaten his stomach, and became lively, and talked more.

It turned out that the child was also invaded south first, his father fought with the army, and died in Tumubao, and his mother pulled him to grow up to the age of twelve, and died of illness last year, and he was alone in the capital.

I asked him his name, but he couldn't say it, and he didn't remember it for a long time.

He smiled and said, "Everyone calls me bald, so you can call me bald." ”

Listening to him, Feng Zhou knew in his heart that this kid actually knew his name.

Not only that, but while his mother pulled him to grow up, she also taught him a lot of principles of life.

So although he was very hungry, he also knew that it was not good to disturb people to eat.

I also know that begging chaos requires the nod of the shopkeeper.

It's an indescribable backbone.

Without the upbringing of relatives, it is difficult to manifest it in a hungry little beggar.

How can children with such arrogance, all thirteen years old, not remember their names?

However, since he didn't say it, Feng Zhou naturally didn't ask, so he briefly talked about his life experience, of course, he omitted his prestige in Dingxing County, and only said that his parents died and came to the capital alone.

The bald man can live until now, his mood has been silent, a little heartless, when he talks about his life experience, he does not feel sad at all, listening to Feng Zhou's own life experience, he only feels very interesting, and said with a smile:

"We're both the same, we don't have our parents, we have to support ourselves by ourselves, but your father was an official at the beginning, and you have money to spend when you become a flower child. ”

Feng Zhou said: "I also have money, and if I spend it all, I will be hungry." ”

The bald man patted his chest and said, "It's okay, it's me! I guarantee that you won't die of hunger!"

Feng Zhou also smiled as he spoke.

Hearing Feng Zhou talk about the poor man just now, the bald man said: "You don't know this, the person who beat you is our second master." This street, from Fangqiao in the east to Guang'anmen in the west, is all his world. Whoever wants to beg for food on this street must first give him a greeting and worship him as a teacher. ”

Feng Zhou nodded and said with a smile: "It turned out to be a flower head." ”

The bald man said: "Don't take the land lord as a fairy, this person is powerful, there is an uncle above him, who is called Huazi who manages the entire East City, it is said that there is also a Li Ye above the uncle, who is in charge of all the dark shops in the East City, that is the big man." Not to mention that Li Ye, he is the uncle of our street, and even the government has his power. ”

Feng Zhou said: "He is also a beggar for food, how can he be the second master, and you can't be it?"

The bald man said deflatedly: "What about the second master, I'm like this, I can't even have an eighth master." ”

Feng Zhou nodded: "Indeed, if you want to be the eighth master, you have to have Cai Guoqing's appearance." ”

The bald man didn't know what he was talking about, so he continued: "If you want to be the second master, you have to have the approval of the uncle, and you don't have fifty or seventy taels of silver to give gifts to the uncle, so you can be the second master? Our second master has excellent martial arts, I heard that he was originally a caretaker for a large family, surnamed Zhang Mingkai, nicknamed 'Claw Eagle', because of gambling money with everyone, accidentally killed someone, and fled into the capital. ”

"He choked people by the throat with a pair of sharp claws, and he killed one by one. A handful of bones like me, but in response to the sentence 'wooden fish is not called wooden fish, it is a pimple when beaten', and he is still the second master!"

Feng Zhou laughed when he heard this, but after thinking about it, he imitated the child's tone and said, "Then you can't just hit someone!"

The bald man said: "It's not that he hits you casually, he sees you dressed like this, like ours, and it's not from his area, he naturally has to take care of it, and the second masters in various places are like this." ”

Feng Zhou looked at his clothes, smiled slightly in his heart, knowing that he had entered the door in the beggar business, and he was very satisfied.

Since you want to mix into the market experience, the more you think about it, the better, even if you command the underground forces in the entire capital in the future, no one will think about it.

So he said, "It's okay to see me like yours, but this street is so long, and there are so many flowers, can he recognize everyone?"

The bald man said, "That's why he asked you." ”

Feng Zhou nodded: "I see, he just retracted his hand into his sleeve and motioned to me, it turned out that he was asking me." ”

"That's right. The bald man looked around cautiously, and then attached to Feng Zhou's ear and said: "He stretched out his sleeve to ask you!" You put your hand into his sleeve, gently pinch it on his middle finger, and then pinch it lightly on his thumb, and then say 'Say hello to the second master', that is, answer him, he will know that you are a person from this area, and he will not beat you - you must not say this, otherwise the second master will know that I have leaked the organ to outsiders, and he will 'destroy' me. ”

Feng Zhou nodded: "I see!"

He asked him again, "If you know this mechanism, you won't be beaten anywhere else, right?"

The bald man shook his head: "Each section has its own code, and there are those who ask questions in words, and there are those who flash their eyes. For example, if he asks you, 'How's business today?' you have to follow their rules, and if you say it wrong, you look good. ”

Feng Zhou said: "Anyway, I've experienced it, and if I know the code, it must be useless." ”

The bald man said: "It's still useful." is not only the second master, but also the third master Wang Hu, the fourth master Zhao Jiu - he also has a nickname called 'General', and those who are not ranked as masters, no matter who you are, you have to ask when you see you, if you answer correctly, you will be safe. ”

Feng Zhou asked him, "Why didn't you ask when you saw me face to face?"

The bald man smiled and said, "You invited me to eat chaos and big baked cakes, how could I be embarrassed to ask?"

Feng Zhou laughed when he said it.

But the bald man immediately said: "Actually, I don't ask anyone, not to mention how old I am, they are all brothers in distress, it is not easy to find a bite to eat, why bother to embarrass people." ”

The two of them talked like this all the way, and it was already late at night. The bald man asked Feng Zhou, "Where do you sleep?"

Feng Zhou naturally didn't say that he had a courtyard, so he said: "I don't know where to sleep, I came from Dingxing during this time, and I have been sleeping open, with a sky covering it and a ground supporting it below, and that's it." ”

The bald man said, "If this is the case, you can sleep with me, I have a stone slab on top and a straw mat below, and it is warm for the two of them to squeeze together." ”

Feng Zhou nodded: "Okay, then let's go to your mansion for one night." ”

The two laughed and went to the bald man's residence.

The foothold of this bald man is actually the bottom of a stone bridge on the river, the stone tower base at the south end of the bridge protrudes a section, although it is close to the water, but it is light and flat, just the length of a person, you can lie down and sleep.

But there were already four or five asleep on it, and the bald man came back late, and the straw mat had been taken up.

The bald man pushed the man: "You don't talk like this, let me go, I have a guest tonight." ”

After such a noise, several people called Hanako woke up, and one of them shouted and scolded the street, but the others heard that it was the bald man's new friend, and it was quite polite, so everyone squeezed and gave way to a place, but at this moment, one of them said in the dark:

"Bald, you have made a fortune, I have heard the money. ”
