Chapter 4 Recruitment
The sun is gradually passing halfway, after packing his luggage, Russell was about to say goodbye to Jack's butler, Jack suddenly pulled Russell aside, he took a bag, and said to Russell earnestly: "Young master, here is the three hundred dinars I saved before, you go out to find a helper now, you can't do without money, I am too old to walk, I am too old to walk, please accept this point!"
Russell subconsciously wanted to excuse himself, he looked at the old butler's gaze, and felt the housekeeper's concern, this is not only the friendship of master and servant, but also the love of an elder for the child he watched grow up.
Russell's eyes turned red, he took Jack's money bag and said, "Butler Jack, I won't waste this money, I will definitely find out the truth, and we will live together in the future." "Ah!" said old Jack with a gratifying smile.
Russell turned away, wiped away the tears that were about to flow, straightened his face, and shouted to Bauer, "Let's go!"
Although the two towns were not far apart, the two did not reach the town of Otai until the evening. Russell wiped the sweat from his forehead, remembered his confiscated horses, and made up his mind that when he earned money in the future, he must buy a sturdy horse to ride.
At this time it was time for supper in the town, and puffs of smoke rose from the houses, and even though the two had eaten at noon, they were now exhausted and hungry. Russell, a noble young master, had suffered this kind of hardship before, and he began to be a little impatient. Thankfully, they could already see the faint light of the tavern, which cheered Russell up and began to calculate.
"Russell, we're here, let's get inside, I'm going to starve!" Bauer pushed open the tavern door and walked in with Russell. Upon entering the tavern, Russell found that this place and the outside were two worlds. Everywhere I looked, there were drunks drinking everywhere, many of them were strong men with scars on their faces, and they seemed to tell others: "Lao Tzu is very difficult to mess with, be honest!" There are also people talking about things, from trivial matters in the neighborhood to the politics of countries in the world, and some people are laughing with the tavern maid, as if asking her to reduce the cost of drinking.
People came and went, bringing the sour smell of sweat and wine, which reached Russell's nose, Russell frowned, but thought that he still had something important to do, and forcibly adapted. Little Bauer walked to the bar, greeted the boss, and said, "Boss Tommy, bring us two bowls of mutton soup and two glasses of barley wine!"
The boss put on his faded brown yarke, touched his goatee, and looked at Russell with shrewd eyes: "This guest, do you want these warriors to convey your thoughts?" "No thanks!" Russell replied.
Russell's heart was half cold when he first came in, and in Bauer's mouth, these people seemed to be some capable people, but reality gave him a big mallet. These people are simply some drunkards, bullies and the like, and it's okay to fight, but their IQ doesn't seem to be as good as Ball's, how can they find out the truth!
The boss looked at Russell who showed a look of frustration, and said: "Guest, if you are not satisfied with these people, I actually have another person I can recommend to you, but he has a request." "What is required?" he said that if he was to be recruited, he would have to answer his question, and that answer would have to satisfy him. "This person is really interesting, Russell rubbed his chin, thinking, I vaguely remember that when people in their previous lives visited Xian and asked, those talents would set up difficult questions, as long as others answered an answer that satisfied them, they could get the assistance of capable people, and it really coincided.
Russell asked, "And where is this man?" The boss pointed to a dimly lit corner, where a man with shoulder-length blond hair who looked tall had his back to them, sitting alone in a chair, leaning against the table and pouring himself a drink.
Russell looked at the man's back and smiled confidently.
