Chapter 53: William's Choice
Stable, this position made Tang Qi a little confused, especially Cotton looked mysterious, as if he had taken advantage of it. However, the recruitment of the Winter family, even if it is a janitor, it is a good position, and there is no danger in raising horses, so what is not satisfied with him.
"I couldn't really do. ”
Donkey's answer, Cotton was not surprised at all, chuckled and measured, the news arrived, put down the teacup, got up and left.
When he was about to go out, he was seen by his mother, who had just come home, and when he got home, his mother immediately pulled Tang Qi to ask, Cotton was not dressed like a commoner, and the family crest on his chest showed that he might have something to do with the nobles.
When she learned that Cotton was a baron and not a noble retainer, her mother took a deep breath and her eyes flashed with vigilance: "What is he doing at our house?
Tang Qi couldn't cry or laugh, his mother had become a frightened bird.
Tell his mother the original conversation about Cotton, and the mother swiped it, and the potatoes she bought rolled to the ground, "Really! Winter Family!" She hugged Tang Qi in surprise, smiling like a girl.
Looking at his mother's unexpected gaffe, Tang Qi recalled that his mother had once said that she was a maid of the Winter family when she was young, and her father, who had been missing for many years, seemed to be the guard of the Winter family. Since it was just a dinner, my mother said casually, and I didn't think about it for a while.
Looking at it this way, my family is really related to the Winter family......
"Xiao Qi, the baron said that you will go to the Winter family to be a stable, this is a good position, the horse is in charge of the horse boy, you only need to supervise occasionally. And the key is that the stables often have access to big people, and the young master of the family will often ride horses, and if they raise their beloved horses, it is easy to be promoted. "Mother knows a lot about the situation of the Winter family, which makes Tang Qi a little surprised.
"Usually a stable will change to a good position in a year or two. Mother said.
So it seems that the stableman is really fat, Tang Qi said secretly, no wonder a baron recommended himself to go over.
"When will you take office?" asked the mother, frowning, as if she had suddenly thought of something.
"The day after tomorrow. ”
Tang Qi wondered, what else is there to pay attention to when taking office?
The mother looked anxious, put the potatoes in the ice drawer, and pulled him out of the door: "Go the day after tomorrow, you have to prepare a decent dress, you can't wear it casually, it won't be liked by others." ”
After that, despite Tang Qi's objections, he dragged him to a shop selling clothes on the street.
......
In the afternoon, the sun goes down and the hustle and bustle turns from the street to the houses.
The taverns are much more deserted than ever, and with late autumn approaching, people are stocking up on food for the winter, and there is not so much spare money to buy alcohol. The price of vegetables in winter is only affordable for the aristocracy, and if they don't buy enough food now, they can only nibble on black bread in winter.
Nowadays, a few decades ago, the southern border was a white hell in winter, and now, although it is still cold, you can survive it with some food.
Tang Qi and William clinked glasses, Felton had something, and this meal was for William to clean up. Willian didn't score many points after he and Eve left, but he still managed to get a good place by relying on the points he had scored.
"I heard that the Earl family is willing to recruit you, why didn't you go?" Tang Qi shook his wine glass and looked at William with a tired face.
"The other viscount has conditions that I can't refuse. William took a sip of wine.
"Viscount Mark, the explorer, I don't remember you like to explore. ”
William shook his head and nodded again: "It's him, I really don't like adventures." But don't underestimate this Viscount Mark, the nobles are all human spirits, do you know who the lord of the gravel town is?"
"Is it him!?" Tang Qi was shocked, and the wine was dissipated in an instant, the gravel town was the first stop for Winterfell to take the Gravel Plains, there are many evil beasts in the Gravel Plains, and the town will definitely become a world of adventurers and mercenaries, and become a trading town.
Such an important town, with huge potential, turned out to be the domain of a viscount.
The viscount title is actually not low, but Winterfell is the main city in the south, and there are many nobles, how could such a good thing fall on the viscount.
"It's a surprise. William coughed: "The reason is actually simple, the Crow Temple some time ago was found by Viscount Mark when he was exploring, he dedicated the location of the temple to the Winter family, and the reward was the town, he had no territory in the first place, and the Winter family actually agreed to this request." ”
"Doesn't sound reasonable...... Tang Qi ordered another glass of ale.
"Whatever, the most important thing is that I can open the shop in the town first. William patted the table and said, "As long as I can get a foothold in Gravel, my father won't be able to control me anymore." ”
"Unfortunately, if it weren't for the Reynolds gangsters, you would definitely be in the top three this time. William sighed.
In this regard, Tang Qi hesitated for a moment and told him about Cotton's recommendation. Knowing that Tang Qi was going to the Winter Family, William's eyes suddenly widened, and he couldn't say anything surprised, and finally beat his chest, "I even thought about comforting you, but I didn't expect it......"
"One more drink!
William said exaggeratedly, still sincerely happy for Tang Qi, and said that he would ask two tailors to help him customize a set of clothes.
"By the way, I didn't tell you something, I took the time to go mouse hunting at noon, and it turned out that the firetail rat tide was gone. William whispered.
"Probably migrated. ”
Tang Qi thought about it, the fire-tailed rat had already brought them an income of 6 golden dragons per person, which was a very high income, and it was indeed a little distressing to disappear now. William scratched his head, "I'll look for it again in the next two days, this is a good business, and it has become an important commodity in my shop." ”
"Stay safe. ”
......
Don Qi and William clinked glasses and had a good drink. After this audition, I and my friends have found suitable jobs, and from tomorrow, life will gradually start to change.
The sun clears and the moon sets, and the first two days before he leaves to take office, Tang Qi has spent time in cultivation, and he needs time to digest his recent gains, not only in cultivation, but also in experience. On the way, I also went to the Icewolf Martial Arts Hall to help people sparring and let the body remember the skills learned in the recent battle.
To go to the aristocratic family to get a job, the job in the martial arts hall had to be resigned, Tang Qi was a little reluctant, and there was still a lot of knowledge in the martial arts hall that he hadn't learned. Tang Qi is not very satisfied with his current martial arts skills.
Lack of systematic learning is my biggest shortcoming. At the same time, if you are not good at weapons, it is a big shortcoming, after all, fists and feet are weaker than swords.
Recently, I have been using daggers myself, all because the stinger is the best weapon at hand, and the use of daggers is all instinct.
It would be nice if there was a place to learn swordsmanship, Tang Qi thought to himself.
Compared to the dagger, of course, he is still the most handsome with a sword, wearing bright silver armor, holding a cold light sword, standing quietly in the snow, his broken hair fluttering, handsome and indifferent, and the enemy has a lonely conversation, and then the sword is light and the sword is ...... This is the style that Tang Qi is looking forward to.
Instead of the current style of stabbing people with daggers and sneak attacks, Tang Qi sighed.
......
