Chapter 168: Recruitment

The servants held the plates, and Steward Su personally gave rewards to the private soldiers lined up at the door. The privates didn't complain because they had waited outside for too long, after all, the money was almost for nothing, and they just followed along.

Zhang Yuan and Chen Qianyun walked out of the door, just watching some private soldiers who had received the bounty and left with a smile. He opened his mouth and was about to make a sound, but he thought that it would be embarrassing if no one cared about him, so he closed his mouth again.

Chen Qianyun bumped Zhang Yuan with his hand holding the tray: "Hey, aren't you looking for a private soldier to help you watch the Grange, why don't you speak?" ”

"Ahem." Zhang Yuan's face turned red all of a sudden, "What, I'm thinking, how to start, if those people don't bird me, won't it be very embarrassing?" What do you say I call these private soldiers, do you call them private soldiers or ......?"

Before Zhang Yuan finished speaking, Chen Qianyun couldn't help laughing, and after laughing, he glanced at Zhang Yuan and scolded: "Wasn't it okay for you to be at the city gate just now, and you are so timid and afraid of things at this time." Forget it, I'll help you out. ”

After Chen Qianyun finished speaking, he shouted loudly at the backs of the private soldiers: "Hey, there is still a reward to receive here." ”

Hearing that there was money to be taken, the private soldier who was leaving immediately turned around and walked back, and the person who had not yet received the reward from the housekeeper also stretched his neck and looked in the direction of Zhang Yuan through the crowd.

Just because of Chen Qianyun's voice, the scene in front of Zhang Yuan became even more embarrassing to him, and the worst thing was that the culprit was still touching him with his arm next to him, signaling him to speak quickly.

Since this is the case, Zhang Yuan also took a deep breath, and he was relieved: "I need someone to help me protect a place now, one person...... Qianyun, how much is the right amount for a person for this kind of thing? ”

"How do I know, you just give it at the price my dad gave. I haven't hired a private soldier, and Steward Su is next to me, so you don't ask him, but ask about me. Chen Qianyun gave Zhang Yuan another roll of the eyes.

"Well, okay, anyway, with so much money, two or three gold coins per person is nothing." Zhang Yuan didn't bother to ask the housekeeper, and shouted directly to the private soldiers: "If you are willing to participate, you will have two gold coins per person, and one gold coin after the matter is completed." ”

As soon as the private soldiers heard that there was so much money, they all gathered in front of Zhang Yuan, and you recommended yourself word by word. Zhang Yuan saw this battle, and immediately knew that his price was high, otherwise these people would not be so excited without inquiring about the details. But this is also to blame for not asking the housekeeper, how can he know that Chen Qianyun and his father are wealthy, and with a wave of his hand, it is two gold coins per person.

Zhang Yuan raised his finger and nodded in the crowd, picked two people who looked pleasing to the eye at random, and called him to him. Coincidentally, one of them was one of the two people he chose to be the first in the line when he entered the city.

"What's your name?" Zhang Yuan looked at these two eager guys and asked.

"Luo Yao."

"Trid."

Zhang Yuan looked up and down, Luo Yao was long, with a long round face and a slightly delicate face, if he changed the armor on his body and held a book, Zhang Yuan would not doubt his identity as a scholar. As for Cui De, he has a very different appearance and a well-proportioned figure, but when he looks closely, he feels that the smiling fat face is very kind.

Satisfied with the two of them, Zhang Yuan also said his request: "The place I want you to protect is a grange outside the city, there may be some danger, you two are okay, right?" ”

Both of them shook their heads, and Cui De said with a smile: "Don't worry, what we do is about life and death, even if there is danger, we will not be afraid, and we will ensure that we will complete the things you have explained." ”

"Okay." Zhang Yuan turned to Luo Yao again, "What about you, there's no problem, right?" ”

"Nope."

Zhang Yuan nodded: "Okay, I'll give you two hardware, and if things are done well, there will be another reward." From now on, you need to help me pick thirty people, and choose among the latter people, to be shrewd and capable, at least let me be worth two golden flowers. ”

Zhang Yuan is also self-aware, and knows that he will find professionals to select people, otherwise those private soldiers will be noisy here, and he will be dizzy from the noise.

The two temporarily appointed recruiters immediately began to get busy, but there was a small episode before the start, Cui De turned around and asked Luo Yao: "Hey, brother, should we recruit fifteen people by one person, or thirty people together." ”

"Well, whatever." Luo Yao hesitated for a moment, and finally pushed the choice to Cui De.

"Then let's recruit fifteen of them per person, so that it will ......be faster," Cui De made a small calculation in his heart.

Zhang Yuan's voice caught up: "No, you are together, if it weren't for the fact that two people were thinking of being stricter together, I would just find one person." ”

"Oh, okay." Triad spun a hundred and eighty degrees, bowing and smiling. However, his smiling expression only lasted for two seconds, and then it turned into a real smile, because Zhang Yuan walked over with a handful of gold coins.

Putting the promised hardware coin into the hands of the two of them, Zhang Yuan patted Cui De on the shoulder, turned around and went back to re-cover the red cloth that had been lifted from the corner. Trid inadvertently saw the glittering golden light in the tray, and his eyes straightened, and he almost forgot what he was supposed to do.

The recruitment of people is different, Zhang Yuan has nothing to do at this time, so he took a gold coin in his hand, threw it in the air and caught it again.

"You're so lazy, you have to pay someone to do this kind of thing. Come, if you're okay, take the money yourself, I've been holding it for so long, my hands are sore. Chen Qianyun said and pushed the tray over.

"You didn't snatch this yourself...... Ouch. Zhang Yuan's mouth fell, but he still honestly reached out to pick up the things in the other party's hand, but he didn't expect a pedestrian to come over at this time, and when he passed by, his shoulder hit Zhang Yuan's arm, almost causing him to knock over the tray in Chen Qianyun's hand.

Fortunately, Zhang Yuan stabilized and didn't pour all the gold coins on the ground, but the gold coins in his hand didn't catch them, and they fell to the ground with a clear sound.

The pedestrian apologized repeatedly, and as he spoke, he bent down to help pick up the gold coin and return it to Zhang Yuan's hand. Zhang Yuan took the gold coin, but he didn't speak immediately, he stared at the brown hood of the pedestrian for a long time before stuffing the gold coin in his fist into his pocket: "It's okay, everyone has a time when they are not careful." ”

Chen Qianyun looked at the pedestrians who walked away quickly, and then at Zhang Yuan, who had a strange expression: "What did you just stare at that person?" ”

"Huh? I didn't see anything, I was just wondering how this man wore a hood and was mysterious, and for a moment I thought he was a thief. By the way, you've been looking at the money. Zhang Yuan said and shifted the topic to money again, and his hand reached over and naturally took over the tray.

"Well, the money is in my hands, of course I'm watching." Chen Qianyun hugged her chest and said, as soon as her words fell, her eyes suddenly lit up, and she patted Zhang Yuan's hand: "Alas, do you see if it's Taimeng over there." ”

Tai Meng's side also saw Zhang Yuan and Chen Qianyun, to be precise, after chasing Yeluyang out of the alley, he saw the boss talking to the private soldiers at the gate of Chen's mansion. Yelu Yangsu dared to swagger out, he didn't have the guts, mainly because he saw that Zhang Yuan didn't look like he was arrested, so he hesitated and kept a wait-and-see posture.

Chen Qianyun pulled Zhang Yuan and wanted to go in the direction of Taimeng, but the latter broke free. Zhang Yuan raised his chin in the direction of Steward Su, which meant obviously, there were people here who couldn't leave.

"Hmph, if you don't go, I'll go alone." Chen Qianyun glared at the housekeeper who turned his head as he spoke, and was so frightened that Steward Su immediately turned his head back, pretending to be seriously rewarding.

"Alas, remember to tell them to be careful during this time, and tell them that I can't go back recently, so don't worry about me......" Zhang Yuan moved two steps to catch up with Chen Qianyun, who had not yet walked away, and whispered.

Chen Qianyun was very impatient: "I know, I know, don't be such a mother-in-law, I will say what I should say." Well, behind you, someone is looking for you. ”

"My lord, we've picked all the people." Still with a smile on his face, Trid walked over and said.

Zhang Yuan's gaze crossed over Cui De's head, swept over the dozens of private soldiers in front of him, and nodded with satisfaction after confirming that Cui De and Luo Yao were not so-so. But now it's time to take the money out, Zhang Yuan is in a difficult situation, how can he hand out the money while holding the plate, he already knew to let Chen Qianyun not go.

On the one hand, he was worried that the private soldiers would not be honest when they took the money, and on the other hand, he didn't want Cui De or Luo Yue to help with the money, so Zhang Yuan suddenly fell into a dilemma. At this time, Steward Su came over to help relieve the siege: "Master Zhang, I'll help you hold it." ”

Zhang Yuan raised his eyebrows, he could see clearly, behind Steward Su were the servants who were carrying the money and the janitor's private soldiers who were taking the money and distributing it. It seems that this housekeeper said that he was helping, but he actually came to see himself, but he didn't care, anyway, he didn't have the idea of running away with the money: "Okay, then thank you Steward Su." By the way, you don't need to call me an adult in the future, just call me Zhang Yuan. ”

"Then how can it be done, you are a distinguished guest in the house, and the master has also explained, we all have to call you Lord Zhang." Steward Su nodded and fought with Cui De on the side, but Cui De was born with that fat round face, so he naturally had a very friendly smile.

Okay, you can call it if you like. Zhang Yuan complained in his heart, others like to call themselves Lord Zhang, and they don't bother to care.

Now that Zhang Yuan's two hands were free, he began to send money to the private soldiers in front of him one by one, two gold coins per person, and there was no fluctuation in his own heart. After all, the money was directly asked for by Chen Enxu, and he even wished that he would spend all the money now and ask for it again.

Zhang Yuan also kept an eye on it, and secretly counted the number of people, except for the two Cairo Yao, there were indeed thirty people, and it seemed that no one came to claim it. These twenty people look well equipped, at least not like the kind that Zhang Yuan pretended to be last time, and the upper body armor has a defensive effect with a broken heart shield.

Of course, not only the equipment has passed, but the physical fitness of these people is not bad, and it can be seen at a glance that they are doing this business.

After the event, Zhang Yuan took four more gold coins and gave Luo Yao and Cui De two each: "Okay, these thirty people will be under your control during this time." It is the Taijia Grange outside the city that you are asked to protect, but there may not be any empty houses for you to live in, so you have to find your own way. Also, when the time comes, I will inquire about your situation, and if you neglect your duties, there will be no reward for you. ”

"Yes."

"Rest assured, we promise to get the job done."
