Chapter 47: Gift-giving

On the field, it gradually became full of people.

Hundreds of strong soldiers entering the village can still bring quite a shock. The hunters in these villages are not very afraid of the beasts in the mountains, but they are afraid of these soldiers who represent the official family.

Yu Jiansheng saw the person from a distance from the window, and his face couldn't help but change slightly, and said, "Haotian, how many people still know about your promotion to hunter." ”

Zheng Haotian hesitated for a moment and said, "Except for Daddy and the three of you, no one else knows." ”

Yu Jiansheng breathed a sigh of relief and said, "The three of you have remembered for me, this matter must not be leaked in the slightest, if I let me know that someone has spread it, it will definitely break your legs." ”

Yu Weihua and the three of them looked at each other, and they didn't understand why Yu Jiansheng did this.

The addition of a hunter in the village, and such a young hunter, is definitely a great thing, and if it spreads, their village's status in the vicinity will definitely improve. But Yu Jiansheng was secretive, and he clearly didn't want people to know, which made them feel extremely surprised.

Zheng Haotian opened his mouth, but when the words came to his mouth, he still swallowed them raw.

Perhaps because he saw through Zheng Haotian's concerns, Yu Jiansheng immediately said: "Haotian, you can rest assured, as long as it is more than a year later, after you turn fourteen, I will definitely send you into the city to learn skills in the martial arts hall." But until you are fourteen years old, you must not let anyone know that you are already a hunter. ”

Zheng Haotian nodded, his eyes were still blank. The three teenagers looked at each other, and they all felt that the world of adults was too complicated for them to see.

At this time, the only two old men left in the village had already greeted them, talked a few words with Zheng Chenglian and Steward Cheng, and then walked towards the village chief's house.

In a few moments, they were already in the room. Zheng Chenglian came to the bed in three steps and two steps, looked at Yu Jiansheng, who couldn't move like a mummy, and asked eagerly: "Village chief, how are you injured?"

Yu Jiansheng smiled bitterly and said, "I can't die, it's all skin injuries." ”

Two people entered the room back and forth, one was naturally a chubby steward Cheng, while the other was a tall and straight middle-aged officer.

The short face is equipped with a long neck and shaved shoulders, the front bangs are cut into the character style, the black crow is draped down with sideburns, the tips of the eyes are swept up, it looks a little like a golden mask, and there is a prismatic purple red mark in the center of the eyebrows, which is clearly a serious injury here. However, if he was injured here, he was able to save his life in the end, and it was already a fluke.

The two of them came in, and their eyes first fell on Yu Jiansheng on the bed.

Although his body was wrapped in thick bandages, Yu Jiansheng still smiled and said, "Steward Cheng, this general, please take a seat." ”

Yu Weihua's three teenagers hurriedly moved three chairs and asked them to make them. At the same time, the people of the village started to get busy, they started a fire, they started to grill and boil the wolf meat, and cooked it with noodles.

If it was normal times, they might not be willing to take out the best fine noodles to eat, but at this time, officers and soldiers came to the door, and everyone took out all the good things at the bottom of the box.

It's not because of respect and love, it's because of fear.

Hundreds of well-trained and tacit soldiers are a powerful fighting force, and if they are launched, they can definitely slaughter the entire village without any problem.

Although they came to rescue the village this time, if they didn't greet them well, it didn't seem to be very difficult for the soldiers to turn into fierce beasts.

Steward Cheng ignored the outside affairs, and behaved indifferently and casually in the face of Yu Jiansheng's hospitality, but was quite polite to Zheng Chenglian.

In his heart, the status of Zheng Carpenter, who has a skill and is appreciated by the master, is far higher than that of a small village chief. Even if this village chief is a beginner hunter, it's the same.

The officer's eyes were blazing, and it was clear that he was a battle-hardened person, and after he sat down, he said in a deep voice: "Village Chief Yu, this official Xu Jun, came to Dalin Village to expel the wolves on the order of the city lord. I wonder where those wolves are now?"

Zheng Haotian and the three of them secretly said in their hearts at the same time, you have obviously seen the wolf corpse, why do you still ask knowingly.

Of course, they are only thinking about it in their hearts, but they don't dare to show it on their faces. They still understand this basic common sense and human feelings.

Yu Jiansheng nodded and said, "General Xu, I'm sorry for you." There were dozens of wolves attacking this time, and they were all giant wolves in the mountains, so they had to ask the city lord for help. He first explained what had happened, and then said: "This time the wolves came to attack, thanks to Brother Zheng who arranged some mechanisms in the village in advance, we used the mechanisms to shoot more than half of the wolves, and finally everyone worked together, so that more than half of the wolves were killed, and the rest of the wolves also retreated." ”

Although he said it was an understatement, as long as you saw the blood stains that had not yet been washed outside, you knew how tragic the battle was.

Xu Jun's cold gaze turned around everyone's body, and said, "This official heard that during the earthquake in Xiongwolf Mountain two years ago, Dalin Village once hunted more than thirty black bears at once. Why are you so panicked in the face of some wolves this time? ”

Zheng Haotian's hearts were unanimously raised.

Although the wolves are powerful, if they are one-on-one, they are definitely not the opponents of the bears.

Dalin Village was able to kill more than 30 black bears in one fell swoop, but when facing a pack of wolves, it seemed so frightened that it immediately sent someone down the mountain for help.

Xu Jun didn't really suspect anything, but he was so experienced that when he encountered such an unreasonable thing, he couldn't help but ask more.

Yu Jiansheng let out a long sigh and said, "The general doesn't know, if we have enough manpower in Dalin Village, we won't be afraid of wolves." But the prime-aged hunters in our Dalin Village happened to go into the mountains to hunt a few days ago, and we don't know when they will return. Even if a certain person and these children are three-headed and six-armed, they dare not say that they can deal with wolves. ”

Xu Jun frowned slightly, and was about to continue asking, but Steward Cheng coughed lightly and said, "Commander Xu, what Village Chief Yu said makes sense, so don't ask about the east and the west." ”

Although Steward Cheng's words were very polite, Xu Jun immediately bent down slightly, and really didn't ask anymore.

Although he is the commander of a thousand people in the city, he can be regarded as a high-ranking officer. But Steward Cheng is the big butler of the City Lord's Mansion. Although the chief housekeeper does not have an official position, how dare Xu Jun offend this person.

He can put on an official posture in front of ordinary people, appreciate the submissiveness of others in front of him, and look like he is cautious. But in front of people with more status than him, he is as timid as a mouse, and he does not dare to disobey in the slightest.

This is a common problem of all people in officialdom, and no one is exempt.

Zheng Chenglian bowed slightly to the two of them and said, "Steward Cheng, General Xu, this time Dalin Village was able to expel the wolves, thanks to the timely arrival of the two leading troops, our village is naturally grateful." He turned his head and glanced at Yu Jiansheng.

Yu Jiansheng immediately smiled and said: "Yes, if the two of you didn't come in time to scare the wolves away, it would be difficult for our village to be saved." He was reluctant in his heart, but there was a smile on his face: "We will prepare the fur of these more than ten deep mountain giant wolves later, please bring them back and present them to the city lord." ”

Xu Jun's face looked better at this time, and there was a faint smile on his serious face.

He led the crowd to come for military merit. If you return empty-handed, it will inevitably make people laugh, but if you can bring more than ten wolf skins of giant wolves in the deep mountains when you go back, it is not only a lot of wealth, but also a credit that no one can erase.

After all, giant wolves in the mountains generally live in the mountains, and it is quite difficult to hunt one. There are more than ten wolf skins in the hands of the surname at one time, and it is definitely a matter of light on the face to pass it out.

A trace of resentment flashed in the eyes of Zheng Haotian and the others, but since this sentence was said by Yu Jiansheng, they did not dare to show the slightest resistance. Especially Yu Weihua, as soon as he saw his father's glaring eyes, his buttocks immediately ached, and he suddenly became honest.

Steward Cheng smiled slightly and said, "The two of you are too polite, this time we didn't contribute, and we deserve such a generous gift." ”

He said that he was ashamed, but the expression on his face was quite calm, and there was a little bit of guilt.

Yu Jiansheng and Zheng Chenglian hurriedly persuaded them in many ways, and it was not over until they finally let the two of them accept it happily.

Xu Jun's gaze fell on the heads of Yu Weihua and the others, and said, "Village Chief Yu, are the three of them your juniors?"

Yu Jiansheng hurriedly said: "The three of them are all juniors in the village, one is my son, one is my nephew, and the other is the son of Brother Zheng. ”

Steward Cheng said with a smile: "I heard that Little Brother Zheng's carpentry skills have been passed down by your father, but I don't know if there is such a thing." ”

Zheng Haotian bowed slightly and said, "You have won the award, the kid just got the guidance of his father and got a little bit of skin." ”

Zheng Chenglian laughed and said: "Steward Cheng, my son, yearns for martial arts, and follows the head of Yu Village to learn martial arts, but he has also learned a few points of the three-legged cat's dealer style, which makes you laugh." ”

Steward Cheng shook his head slightly, and said, "You have a good father, and if you have learned his craft, wouldn't it be far better than being a hunter." ”

Zheng Chenglian replied again and again, with a smile on his face.

Steward Cheng pondered for a moment and said, "It's embarrassing to accept your wolf skin, these three little brothers shouldn't have become official hunters yet." I think it's a good thing that you take them into the city for an assessment next month and get the title of a hunter. ”

A hint of joy flashed in Yu Jiansheng's eyes, and he said, "Thank you Steward Cheng, it's just that none of the three of them have reached the age of eighteen, you see......"

Steward Cheng's fat palm waved and said: "It is not easy for them to survive under the siege of wolves, let Commander Xu handle this matter." ”

Xu Jun laughed, he had gained a lot from coming here this time, so he naturally promised it with satisfaction.
