Ma Dabiao is tall, strong, and bearded, giving people a very strong feeling.

Wang Xu didn't speak, looking this person up and down, until the other party was a little impatient, and then he spoke: "Have you ever killed a good person?" ”

"I don't know." Ma Dabiao tilted his neck, and said angrily: "The justice of the big boss back then, robbing the rich and helping the poor, should have never killed a good person." Later, I joined the 24th Division, I don't know if I killed it or not, I will do it if the commander has an order, and no one will explain anything to you. ”

If there is an order, do it, Wang Xu is very comfortable to hear.

He was also worried that Ma Dabiao's own situation was so complicated that he would be an unruly person, but he didn't expect that he would be quite good.

The second stunned man is good, Qi Jiguang trains the army, and he likes to use rural people as the backbone, and the second stunned person acts as the vanguard.

The former is obedient and easy to train.

The latter was stunned and didn't think too much.

Such a person is the most desperate to fight a war, and Qi Jiguang can suppress the Japanese Kou, which is really indispensable to the credit of these people.

"How much do you earn in a year in the barracks?" Wang Xu took a sip of tea and asked Ma Dabiao.

Ma Dabiao didn't realize that he was there, and replied honestly: "I am a platoon commander, and I have 10 oceans every year. ”

"I'll give you ten oceans a month, will you listen to my words?" Wang Xu swept the tea leaves with the tea cover, did not drink the tea, but looked at Ma Dabiao with the corner of his eye.

Ma Dabiao was overjoyed when he heard this, patted his chest and promised: "Ten yuan a month, I can't earn so much when I am a ringing horse, I will listen to what you say." ”

"Twenty dollars for you?" Wang Xu asked again.

This time, Ma Dabiao couldn't calculate the account, twenty yuan a month, isn't it more than 200 yuan a year, and there is not so much for ten years as a soldier.

Thinking that he had been born and died all these years, and he had not saved his family, Ma Dabiao was angry and shouted: "With so much money, my life can be given to you!" ”

"Okay, that's what I want." Wang Xu slapped the table heavily, took the banknote in his hand, divided half of it without looking at it, and handed it over: "Take it, this is the money to buy your life." ”

"Hey!" Ma Dabiao was not surprised, took the banknote and ran away, shouting: "Mother, I have money to say that my daughter-in-law, our family doesn't have to die, we have to have a good life!" ”

Ma Dabiao ran fast and quickly disappeared into the crowd.

The guard beside Wang Xu was a little stunned, and subconsciously said, "With so much money, he won't run away, right?" ”

"If you run, you run, this money is just a drizzle for me, if you don't run, you will make money." Wang Xu is not short of money, what he lacks is people, loyal and reliable people.

If Ma Dabiao is not an actor, his performance skills break through the sky, or he is really relatively good.

Wang Xu believes that it is the latter, because of Ma Dabiao's experience, if a person is smart, he can't just be a platoon commander.

You know, this is a troubled time, and power comes out of the barrel of a gun.

Ma Dabiao has been in the army for eight years, that is, he has raised pigs in the army, and he has not died after a hundred battles, so he should be promoted to a regiment commander over the years.

And listening to his words, Ma Dabiao also did private work for the above, such a person is a descendant at a glance. But he was just a platoon commander in the end, and if he didn't take the blame for people for a long time, he wouldn't believe it if he killed Wang Xu.

"Yang Ergou, what's the situation in this Ma Dabiao's family?" Ma Dabiao ran away, and Wang Xu could only ask others.

Yang Ergou is from this village, and he still knows about Ma Dabiao, so he thought about it and said: "Brother Ma is very good, two months ago, the next village grabbed a water well with us, and Brother Ma beat away more than a dozen of them alone, which is amazing." And my mother always said that Brother Ma is a filial son, let me learn from Brother Ma. ”

After listening to Yang Ergou's words, Wang Xu was even more satisfied, but he still said strangely: "He is so good, why are you so afraid of him?" ”

Yang Ergou couldn't answer, and no one around him spoke.

A moment later, a six- or seven-year-old child shouted, "My grandfather said he was bearded, not a good man..."

"Beard!" Wang Xu understood, it turned out that the problem was here.

Beard is a vernacular word, used to describe those mountain bandits and robbers, as well as the derogatory term of the green forest heroes.

No matter how good Ma Dabiao is, he is also from Xiangma, which is different from these people. It's like we know that there is a robber living next door, and even if he behaves well on weekdays, he is still a person of two worlds in our eyes.

"Ma Dabiao has been a platoon commander in the regular army and a veteran for many years, so it should be no problem to lead dozens of people. My escort team is not going to fight, but only transporting antiques from the Jinchaji region, and the number of people is about one hundred and eighty, and Ma Dabiao is enough to do it. ”

Wang Xu doesn't care if Ma Dabiao is a little flustered, all he cares about is whether this person's head is really sincere, as long as he has too many fancy intestines.

After all, he is not afraid of people, the escort force is not a revolutionary armed force, and the requirements for the commander are not high. With a gun, he can compete with bandits and puppet armies, Wang Xu is satisfied, and the most important thing is loyalty.

Ma Dabiao is a filial son, and there is an old lady on it, which is his weakness.

Wang Xu likes people with weaknesses, weaknesses mean that they can be controlled, such people will not see the intention of getting rich, and take his things away and fly away.

"Mr. Wang, who is Mr. Wang?" Ma Dabiao left only about ten minutes ago, and in the company of an old lady, he squeezed in from the crowd.

Wang Xu raised his eyes and saw that the old lady's eyes didn't seem to be very good, squinting and looking left and right, looking very struggling.

"Old man, are you looking for me?" Wang Xu took the initiative to greet him, and when he got closer, he found that the old lady's pupils were very blurry, which is only the case for people with cataracts.

"I'm Da Biao's mother, he took a lot of money home, saying that it was the salary you gave him, is there such a thing?" The old lady Ma has bad eyes, but her complexion is good, and the clothes on her body are quite new.

Wang Xu looked at the people around him and found that the clothes of the old woman Ma were more than one cut stronger than the people around her, and she felt a bit like a city person.

From this little thing, Wang Xu knew that Ma Dabiao was really filial, and he was an ordinary country man, and he was reluctant to add clothes to the old man if he had money.

"Auntie, I am Mr. Wang, you can use this money with confidence, I gave it to Da Biao."

Wang Xu hit the snake with the stick, and as the old lady called Da Biao, he said: "In the future, your son will be my buddy, I am in the antique business, and I am planning to set up my own escort team, and your son is the captain of the escort team, with a salary of twenty yuan a month." ”

"Twenty oceans!" The old lady was overjoyed to the limit, pulled Ma Dabiao's arm, and cried: "Mother, Da Biao, you finally have a chance, follow Mr. Wang to work hard in the future, if you let people drive me back, don't think I'm your mother." ”

"Mother, I see." Ma Dabiao knew that his wife was talking about being driven out by the Eighth Route Army.

Because of this incident, the old woman Ma did not sleep well for a few days and almost fell seriously ill.

Ma Dabiao was in a hurry, he didn't close his eyes for two days and two nights, and swore that he would never eat dog meat again in his life, and eating dog meat was really bad.

"Auntie, is there anyone else in your family?" The more Ma Dabiao cared about his mother, the more Wang Xu felt that it was necessary to take his mother away.

In fact, the old woman Ma is not very old, at most she is in her fifties, which is not enough retirement age in modern times.

It's just that people in this period can't keep up with nutrition, have no cosmetics to use, and have to worry about their livelihoods, so they look older.

"There is also a daughter in the family, who married into Liuzhuang Village, and when Da Biao was away, she served me." As soon as the old woman Ma said this, Wang Xu suddenly had an idea.

He turned the jade ball in his hand, looked up at Ma Dabiao, and said: "The old lady's eyes can't be delayed, I know a very powerful doctor in Tianjin City, it's best to take your old lady over, maybe your eyes can be saved." Moreover, if you wish, your sister's family can also come along, I also have a business over there, and it is better to beg for food by my side than to face the loess with your back to the sky. ”

"Okay, this is good..." Ma Dabiao hurriedly nodded in agreement, not realizing at all that his relatives went to Tianjin City, and his handle fell into Wang Xu's hands.

Wang Xu smiled with satisfaction, first the villain and then the gentleman, and the old woman Ma is his double insurance.

Of course, then again, as long as Ma Dabiao works well with him, why don't the old ladies enjoy the glory and wealth, can Wang Xu still treat them badly.
