A month has passed since the autumn festival, and it is a little colder in the south.

Today is a special day, and a special ceremony selection is over. It's really nice to say that it is special, but the selection rules that have been maintained for decades have suddenly changed, and the nobles have specially welcomed the returning participants.

All of Winterfell knew what that meant, and the nobles would give this selection a high reward.

Being able to get a good position in a noble family is a great benefit in the eyes of the common people, and it is not an exaggeration to say that it is a step to the sky, just like the Joseph district where Tang Qi's family lives, a baron's housekeeper is a big man here.

Therefore, when the selected blue list is posted on the street, the whole street is boiling, and people are scrambling to see the list.

The blue list is a dark blue list, with black letters in gold edges, and a snowflake emblem at the top, with a clear name. Tang Qi relied on his strength, squeezed to the front of the crowd, looked up and looked on the blue list, and soon saw William's name, well, 180, not too high or low, it should meet his father's requirements.

There were less than 300 names on the blue list, and everyone else was eliminated because they didn't score 100 points.

Tang Qi looked up and saw a few familiar names:

1st place: Natalie Scarlett

2nd place: Ward Hertis

3rd place: Los Ian

......

5th place: Suvi Heather

Fifteenth place: Fern Crowder, this guy relies on the tavern business to follow them closely, which is considered the first echelon, and it is a strange thing in the top rank......

Looking at the list, Tang Qi breathed a sigh of relief, Herthis did not get the first place, so that Eve's goal was achieved, this result was unexpected but reasonable, Herthis is indeed stronger than Natalie, it can be seen when the misty lizard was at the beginning, but Natalie organized 300 people, and in the end, the ruthless score should not lose to Hertys.

It's a pity that there is no news from Eve.

Tang Qi sighed, he confessed to Bit to find someone, relying on cotton clothes to buy, under the homeless man's intelligence network, there was no trace of Eve. Luckily, William had a bit of a gain in Gravel, and someone was on a lookout mission when he saw Eve and a man leaving side by side in the direction of Winterfell.

Because of Tang Qi's demon name, he was more impressed with Eve at that time, so he was sure that it was Eve.

Leaving side by side shows that they are not enemies, and knowing that Eve is safe, Tang Qi is not in a hurry.

"My child is on the list, 280!"

"There are 260 in my family, hahaha! Soon my son will be a big man!"

......

There are a lot of people who came to see, and when they heard who was on the list, they were all compliments and praises, Joseph District is a small neighborhood, people are not rich, and there are really not many people who can be on the list, and a few families have become the object of everyone's stuttering, Tang Qi is not suitable for this kind of scene, and turns to leave.

Tang Qi did not go home directly, but went to the barracks, and after listening to the carriage driver complaining about his son who had escaped from the selection all the way, Tang Qi got out of the carriage.

Today I came to learn about joining the army with Felton, and I have visited many nobles in the past few days, but no one is willing to accept it, or only willing to accept it as a guard, it seems that I can only join the army.

Knowing Tang Qi's intention, Felton was silent for a moment:

"It's not difficult to join the army, but it's hard to get military merits, if you want to be promoted in a short period of time, you can only go to the rangers, they have the fastest military merits, but they are very dangerous. ”

The Rangers, who roam the wilderness for a long time, hunt evil beasts close to the city, detect the direction of large groups of evil beasts, and face the test of severe cold, all make the Rangers the most elite but most dangerous troops.

In the end, Felton hoped that Tang Qi was thinking about it, and he was willing to try to help him contact the nobles and help build a line, after all, Tang Qi had the strength of the late stage of the source qi, and under the hands of ordinary nobles, this was also the backbone.

After chatting for a while, Felton had something to say goodbye. Recently, the weather has turned cold, and many villages and towns have been attacked by evil beasts, and several legions in Winterfell have gone out to help, and the military camp has become busy.

After drinking all the tea, Tang Qi said goodbye to Darcy, did not take the car, and walked home.

Before he saw his home, Tang Qi saw his mother at the corner of the street, and his mother, who usually doesn't go shopping, went out today and chatted with a few friends. It's all her old friends, and a few of them are old neighbors.

In the distance, Tang Qi heard one of them with a woman with her head on her head and a voice as high as a trumpet.

It's hard to listen to it or not, Tang Qi smiled bitterly, sure enough, women of this age can't chat without their children, this proud woman, her son is famous on the blue list, and she is specially looking for sisters to show off.

The mother and the other women were a little impatient to hear her endless boasting about her son, but they wanted to hear how she educated her child, so they had to listen patiently to her show off.

In this regard, Tang Qi made a decisive detour and secretly returned home.

His own small building came into view, there was a figure hovering in front of the door, looking carefully, Tang Qi's eyes were round, the figure was a tall man with a beard, rough appearance, but a dress of expensive fabric, revealing his identity.

Tang Qi had seen him, wasn't this the nobleman who came to the rescue of the Misty Lizard on that mission...... It seems to be called Cotton.

What is a nobleman doing in front of his house? Tang Qi stepped forward with doubts: "Your Excellency Cotton?"

"Oh, you know me, to the province introduced myself. Cotton said and glanced at the door, "Don't mind if I go in and sit down." ”

"Of course, please come in. ”

Although he didn't know the nobleman's intentions, Tang Qi did not refuse.

Inviting him into the living room to sit down, Tang Qi made a pot of tea and brought it, sat down opposite, and no one spoke. Waiting for Cotton to take two sips of tea, he sighed: "Since becoming a nobleman, there are more and more bad habits, and the tea is good." ”

"I don't like their process, so I told you directly, I came this time to give you a big opportunity. ”

"Opportunity?" Tang Qi asked with a little caution, most of the pies in the sky didn't taste good.

Cotton took a sip of tea: "As a judge of the selection, I have a right to recommend, I recommended you to the Winter family, and they agreed to recruit you." ”

"What!" Tang Qi was shocked, but asked immediately, "Why?"

Recruitment and employment are completely different conditions, recruitment represents valuation, and employment is a purely transactional relationship, regardless of treatment or status. And it's the Winter family, the master of the South.

Such an identity is more noble than being a butler of a small noble.

"Why, one reason is that if you don't suddenly abstain, you will definitely be in the top three, and another reason...... Probably because you helped me earn a good sword. Cotton laughed.

Tang Qi was confused, but he cared about another thing: "I...... What kind of work are you going to do?

Cotton shook his head and said mysteriously, "I won't waste a recommendation for such a promising position as a guard." If I'm guessing correctly, your job should be...... Stables. ”
