Chapter 69: Qi Family
As soon as the sky was bright, Zhang's mansion began to be lively.
The reading aloud of "the beginning of people, the nature is good" in the East Chamber, and it does not stop around.
The sound of bamboo knives chopping on wooden stakes in the front yard and the sound of "hey, hey, haha" were higher for a while.
As soon as Zhang Chu, who had finished the night's work, opened the door, he saw Da Xionghou outside the door, holding a tray of toiletries in his hand.
Zhang Chu stretched his waist, picked up the water cup and fresh willow branches from the tray, dipped some fine salt into his mouth and brushed his teeth.
"Master Chu, where are you going today, go down and arrange the carriage. ”
Da Xiong wrung up the hot towel and handed it to Zhang Chu.
Zhang Chu rinsed his mouth, took the hot towel in his hand and wiped his face, "I'm not going anywhere today, stay at home and rest for a day." ”
Da Xiong bowed: "Okay, the subordinates will arrange for the brothers to go to the hall to inform the brothers on duty later." ”
Zhang Chu put down the hot towel and suddenly remembered something, "Didn't my mother arrange for someone to serve me, why are you still doing this?"
Big Bear took the towel and said sullenly, "I'm used to it." ”
Zhang Chu smiled and patted him on the shoulder, "You can't get used to it, you will also be the one who will go down to be a big brother in the future!"
Big Bear: "As long as I can follow you, it doesn't matter if I am a big brother or not!"
Zhang Chu didn't care, "Let's talk about it later." ”
He believes that what Big Bear says is what he says from his heart, but people's minds will always change, even if Big Bear's mind remains the same, he, as a big brother, can't help but plan for his henchmen.
As soon as he finished washing, a little man came in with a basket of steaming steamed buns, and said crisply: "Master Chu, it's too early!"
This voice sounded familiar, Zhang Chu looked at it and wondered: "Young lady, didn't you let you read and write? Why did you come here again!"
Li Youniang put the steamed bun on the table, crossed her ten fingers on her chest, tried to open her cute big eyes, and looked at him pitifully: "Master Chu, you are good, don't let me go to study and read and write, okay?"
Zhang Chu: "What's the matter, little black and white, they bully you?"
"No, no, little white and little black, they are very good to me......"
Li Youniang shook her head vigorously: "However, it's so difficult to read and read, and my brain is stupid, so I can't learn!"
"Haha. ”
Zhang Chu laughed unscrupulously and stretched out his claws, making a mess of her neatly combed bun, "If you can't learn it once, you can learn it twice, if you can't learn it twice, if you can't learn it twice, you can learn it three times, you can always learn it!"
"Chu Ye is not a good person!"
The little girl kicked Zhang Chu angrily, turned around and ran with two little short legs.
Zhang Chu sat down at the table with a smile, picked up a steamed bun and teased: "It seems that this person can't be too familiar, this little girl used to be afraid of me, when she saw me, it was like a mouse seeing a cat, and it was only a few days, so she dared to do it with me!"
Big Bear smiled innocently, "Who asked the old lady to support her?"
Zhang Chu smiled "haha" and beckoned: "Have you eaten it, you haven't eaten it together." ”
Da Xiong glanced at the steamed buns on the table, and said honestly, "Forget it, you don't have enough yourself, I'll go to the kitchen to find something to eat later." ”
Zhang Chu silently glanced at the buns in front of him that were piled up like a small mountain, and patted the table depressedly and sighed: "It's heartbroken, Lao Tie!"
Big Bear looked at him suspiciously: "???"
......
After early, Zhang Chu slowly turned to the front yard, and saw Li Gouzi with his hands behind his back, holding his belly that was not there at all, swaying in the plum blossom array.
"Work hard under your hands, have you eaten all the four white flour steamed buns you ate in the morning!"
"Stone, you hold the bamboo knife for Lao Tzu, fly one more, Lao Tzu will fly you out!"
His fifteen younger brothers, all standing in the plum blossom stake, grabbed a bamboo knife and chopped the stake.
These people have been practicing for six or seven days, and now they look the same.
As soon as they saw him appear, everyone in the plum blossom array received bamboo knives and greeted him, "Master Chu!"
Zhang Chu waved his hand casually, "Don't worry about me, everyone, continue to practice!"
"Okay!"
In response, the crowd diverged their horses and continued to split the stakes, roaring like thunder.
Li Gouzi slipped up to Zhang Chu depressedly and complained: "Master Chu, look at these rammers, my throat is hoarse on weekdays, and I haven't seen them work so hard, as soon as you come, one by one, it's like taking the wrong medicine!"
Zhang Chu smiled and beckoned him to sit down, "Are you still recruiting?"
"Recruit, why don't you recruit!"
Li Gouzi scratched his head depressedly: "But you also know that now all the big brothers in our Black Tiger Hall are recruiting, I here, there is not much money, it is not as good as other big brothers, who wants to come to me!"
Zhang Chu listened and nodded in his heart, this is indeed a problem.
He has the intention to divide the territory and manpower under his command according to their functions, those who are responsible for collecting protection fees honestly collect protection fees, those who are responsible for doing business concentrate on doing business, and those who are responsible for cutting people practice cutting people well.
Yu Er and Li Gouzi were his henchmen, so he started experimenting with the two of them first.
At present, it seems that this can indeed optimize the allocation of human resources, and things can be done more appropriately.
But the problem is also obvious...... People are higher animals that seek good fortune and avoid evil, Li Gouzi has made it clear here that the probability of casualties is the greatest, how many people who are not afraid of death will come to him?
If you can't replenish new blood, this sharp knife under Li Gouzi will be used up sooner or later!
Zhang Chu pondered, can the recruitment rights of the bigwigs under his command be collected in the hall, and the hall will recruit and distribute people in a unified manner?
But after thinking about it for a while, he gave up on the idea.
This idea is good, but it is too difficult to implement, and if it is pressed hard, I am afraid that it will cause his bigwigs to join forces to resist him, the hall master.
It needs to be slowly figured out.
Zhang Chu pondered for a while, and suddenly said: "Li Gouzi, from today on, you and your brothers will form a blood knife team, and you will be the captain!"
Li Gouzi was stunned, and nodded inexplicably.
Zhang Chu turned his head again and said to the big bear beside him: "Let go out with some rumors, in the future, my brothers in the Black Tiger Hall, whoever wants to be on the throne must come to the Blood Knife Team for a trip, and if I promote the eldest brother, I will only choose from the Blood Knife Team!"
Da Xiong nodded: "Yes, Master Chu, my subordinates will do it later." ”
Li Gouzi reacted at this time, raised a thumbs up at Zhang Chu, and exclaimed: "Gao, Master Chu, as soon as you let out this rumor, I will immediately become a fragrant dumpling that everyone wants to come here, and in the future, this group of ramming goods will definitely work harder!"
Zhang Chu Zhengse said: "Don't be too happy, you have a problem, I will solve it for you, but if you can't afford to bring this group of people, I will have to change someone to bring it!"
Li Gouzi immediately patted his chest, "No problem, look at me!"
Zhang Chu patted him on the shoulder: "This is like words, work hard, I will give you the opportunity to make meritorious service later, and when the merit is enough and you can convince the public, I will report you to be the deputy hall master!"
Li Gouzi's eyes lit up when he heard this, and he said shamelessly: "This is what you said, don't deny it when the time comes!"
Zhang Chu glanced at him and spit out two words: "Get out!"
"Okay!"
Li Gouzi is as good as a stream, and he will get out of the way when he says go.
But before he could take two steps, he rolled back again, "Master Chu, do you think that Bufeng will agree to exchange land with us?" Do you want me to take my brothers and go to the cattle and sheep market to give him some more color?"
"Be honest, don't make trouble for Lao Tzu!"
Zhang Chu scolded him, and then said firmly: "Bufeng will agree!"
Li Gouzi: "How can you be so sure?"
Zhang Chu smiled faintly: "Because he knows that he can't beat me!"
Li Gouzi bowed, turned around and grabbed a bamboo knife, and walked into the plum blossom pile.
Li Gouzi is out.
Zhang Chu turned his head and looked at the big bear beside him with a smile: "I gave all the opportunities to Li Gouzi and them, and my heart was unbalanced?"
Da Xiong's face was calm, "You must have a reason for giving Brother Dog a chance, and the brothers also know in their hearts that Brother Dog is the most dangerous team in our hall, and it is natural for you to support them!"
Zhang Chu nodded, "It's good to understand!"
He got up, walked to the east chamber, and said: "Li Gouzi is the captain of the Blood Knife Team, you are also the captain of the Guards, how the brothers under him are performing, you have to know what to do, you should be eliminated from the Guards, you don't have any scruples, you should be promoted, you don't hide it, the Guards and the Blood Knife Team are my closest henchmen, if you want a good position, you two must be close to you first!"
Speaking of this, he glanced back at Da Xiong: "When I speak, I always count!"
Big Bear nodded sullenly: "Subordinates understand." ”
While talking, the two walked to the vicinity of the East Chamber.
The immature and crisp sound of reading aloud echoed around here, which made Zhang Chu feel good.
Since he became the deputy hall master of the Black Tiger Hall, he has never stopped collecting little beggars and orphans, and now in his family, there are more than forty and a half children, the youngest is eight years old, the oldest is twelve years old, and there are boys and girls.
He provided food and clothing for these children, and also opened a private school at home, and invited a teacher to teach them to read and write, hoping to cultivate a group of backbones who can be literate and martial, and can be independent.
He lightly touched the window of the wing room that served as the classroom, and listened quietly.
After listening for a while, he suddenly heard a young boy say, "Master, you said that human beings are good at the beginning, so why did so many villains beat me when I used to beg for food on the street? ”
"This question, you have to ask Hall Master Zhang, why are there so many bad people on the street!"
"Master, don't say anything bad about our Chu Ye!"
"That's it, you can't speak ill of our Chu Ye!"
"Shut up! Huangkou Ruzi, dare to question the old man's words? What the old man said is the truth, if you don't believe it, you go and ask your Chu Ye, ask him, are all the bad people around here under his control!"
"Bang. ”
Before Zhang Chu could say anything, Da Xiong had already kicked open the door, walked in with a black face, grabbed the placket of the teaching gentleman's clothes, and lifted him up on the spot like a little chick, "What do you want to ask our Chu Ye?"
"Big Bear, let go of Master Liu!"
Zhang Chu walked in and said lightly: "Take him out and settle his remuneration...... By the way, I would like to say hello to my brothers, I don't want to see this person on the territory of our Blue Dragon Gang in the future!"
"Understood!"
Da Xiong strode out with this teacher surnamed Liu in one hand.
The teacher surnamed Liu came back to his senses at this time, and tore Da Xiong's hand in horror and shouted: "No, Zhang Chu, no, you can't be like this, how can you let my family live without the cattle and sheep market!"
Zhang Chu's lungs are about to explode, can't he yet?
Why not?
Lao Tzu paid for you to come to class, and served with good wine, meat and tea all day long, I don't expect you to say many good things for me, but you can't serve my bowl and smash my pot, right?!
Grass fuck old puff!
If it weren't for the fact that he didn't want to leave a bloody impression on these half-grown children, he really wanted to kill this old horseman on the spot!
At this time, he was constantly glad in his heart, fortunately, he found it early, otherwise he would have contributed money and efforts, but he would have raised a group of white-eyed wolves, but he would have lost a lot!
The old man's wailing gradually faded away, Zhang Chu walked up to the podium and asked gently, "Who asked the question just now?"
"Me. ”
A boy in Tsing Yi, who was about eleven or twelve years old, raised his little hand timidly.
Zhang Chu glanced at the child and felt that the face was tight, not the little black and little white he was familiar with...... There are so many children, except for the few who were quite familiar to him at the beginning, how can he know all the others.
He smiled and asked softly, "Very well, what's your name?"
"Master Chu, I don't have a name, everyone calls me Ergouzi. ”
"Yo, isn't this Li Gouzi's long-lost brother?"
Zhang Chu laughed and made a joke.
"Hahaha. ”
The children in the room burst into laughter, and the cheerful atmosphere suddenly replaced the tense atmosphere.
Compared with the elusive Zhang Chu, these children are more familiar with Li Gouzi, who is giggling all day long and has no shape.
After they finished laughing, Zhang Chucai said: "Ergouzi is very hard-working, the knowledge that the master gave him, he knows to reflect on his own experience, everyone should learn more from him!"
After speaking, he took the lead in applauding the second dog.
"Bang Bang Bang ......"
The room suddenly burst into warm applause, but it made the second dog blush, hanging his head, and no one dared to look at it.
"The question of the second dog just now is very good, let's discuss it together. ”
Zhang Chu slowed down his speech and tried to make himself gentler, "At the beginning of people, nature is good, this sentence, I understand this sentence, when everyone was born, they were all very kind, just like you, you are all children now, who do you think is the big bad guy and the big bad guy?"
A room full of children, you look at me, I look at you, hesitated for a while, and shook their heads.
Dozens of children get together, of course, it is impossible to have no friction at all, but in their eyes, these small contradictions and small frictions are still too far away from the word "bad guy".
"Then why do some people grow up to be bad people?"
Zhang Chu spread his hands and threw the question to them to think about for themselves.
Someone raised their hand.
Zhang Chuding looked at it, and he was still a second dog.
"Ergouzi, say it!"
Ergouzi stood up, his fingers wringing the corners of his clothes, "Because they learned badly from the bad guys." ”
Zhang Chu clapped his hands, "That's right!"
"This is the next sentence of 'the beginning of people, the nature is good', 'the sex is similar, the habits are far away', habits are formed, good people and bad people, they are also learned little by little, follow the good people to learn good, follow the bad people to learn bad...... Do you want to learn from the good guys or from the bad guys?"
A little child with a swarthy face stood up and said with a grin: "We want to learn from you, if you are a good person, we will learn to be a good person, and if you are a bad person, we will learn to be a bad person." ”
This little guy is Xiao Hei, Zhang Chu was the first to receive his little bean ding.
He is familiar with Zhang Chu and Li Gouzi, and he has learned Li Gouzi's skinless and faceless bastard, and he has learned ten out of ten.
Zhang Chu glared at him angrily, "Yo, you are really a little clever ghost!"
