Chapter 19: Licking the Dog to the End......
In the ranch walled city, the flying dragon invited Lao Diao to question.
"What is Lu Boy doing these days?"
"Well, it's his good look. I went to the town from time to time, and I didn't do anything else. ”
"No, are you sure you're staring at him all the time?"
"There is no guarantee of this. The main thing is that you know Lu Ye's temper. It's okay for me to follow in a small fight, but if I really stare at it. Then maybe you'll pull out a knife and cut me at some point. Over the years, Lu Ye's sword technique has progressed rapidly, and I'm afraid I'm no longer an opponent. ”
Needless to say, Feilong also understands. No one likes to be followed by someone who doesn't leave you. What's more, that person's force value is extremely high. He is so angry that he draws a knife and cuts people at every turn.
"What do you think of Lu Boy?"
"Master Lu. What did he say? The knife technique is first-class and powerful. The mind is not comparable to that of us coarse people. He's a powerful character, and I can't see it anymore. ”
"I can't see it, and I still don't dare to say it. Don't you think this kid has a strange temperament, and he doesn't seem to be a person from us? ”
"Lu Ye's temperament is indeed a bit strange, but if you want to say that he is not a person all the way, then it is not likely. In my opinion, Lu Ye is simply a person who was born to eat this bowl of rice. He has good kung fu in his hands, his personality is ruthless enough, and he is still smart. Much better than us old guys. ”
That's not what I said. I just feel like this kid is doing something behind my back. Are you sure you didn't find it? ”
"I can't guarantee that. Lu Ye has a bad temper, I don't dare to get too close. Lao Diao's answer was not leaky, and the flying dragon quickly became annoyed.
"Alright, alright, you go down. Get me two new kids. ”
I have to say that the intuition of the flying dragon is still very accurate. Lu Xiao has been working hard for him for nearly four years. Now that he missed a little thought, he immediately noticed it.
In fact, it wasn't just him, Lao Diao actually felt it. After all, among the horse bandits, he was the closest to Lu Xiao. It is also natural to sense that Lu Xiao is wrong. But Lao Diao thought about it a little more.
Although Wyvern is now in the prime of life, he can still fight for a few years. But compared with Lu Xiao, it is impossible to watch. Lu Xiao is too young, good at kung fu and good brain. Don't be too harsh on the people below. The point is, he is still a disciple of the Wyvern. It is also a logical thing to inherit the status of the flying dragon in the future.
Even if you can't stand the wait, it's completely understandable that you want to get on the throne early. They were bandits, and they weren't a legitimate profession. How common it is to kill the old one and take the position yourself. No big deal.
And Lao Diao is actually vaguely biased towards Lu Xiao in his heart. After all, this side is clearly more promising. It's just that Feilong's Yu Wei is still there, and he doesn't dare to stand in line directly.
.................
When Lu Xiao entered the city again, there were two more pendants behind him.
"Master Lu, that's really not what we meant. It's the boss who got the news that someone is looking for trouble with you. Let us protect you. Don't embarrass us. ”
These two people were originally "interviewed" by Lu Xiao. How could he not know Lu Xiao's ability, for fear that Lu Xiao would be angry and cut them down.
"Alright, just don't follow too closely. I'm going to talk to someone about business today, so come along. ”
Business? The two never knew that they still had business in the city. It's just that since they're new here, it's normal not to know. So, I didn't dare to ask more.
The business that Lu Xiao said is really business. Didn't you find a lot of people to rebuild the houses in the village before? Lu Xiao is here to settle their wages today.
In the teahouse. The foreman of the contractor who was promoted by those craftsmen sat in front of Lu Xiao with a worried face.
"Don't be so nervous. Although we are horse thieves, we also have a work ethic. Doing business with you, not buying and selling. Therefore, there will be no shortage of money. You count. ”
As he spoke, Lu Xiao directly threw a large bag of copper coins to the other party.
This made the old man on the other side tremble. I finally picked up the money bag and found that it was really full of cash.
To tell the truth, he came this time with the determination to die. As they worked, they found out. The group of people in the stockade were horse thieves. At that time, they thought they were going to die.
As a result, I didn't expect that not only did the person not die, but also had two meals of brown rice a day, and he was full. In these years, there are really not many people who can manage the work of making rice.
Those workers were thinking that one meal was one meal. I didn't think I'd come back alive after finishing my work. Even if I came back alive, I didn't think I would get paid. After all, it's a bunch of horse thieves.
The old man trembled and held the bag of money, and he didn't know what to say excitedly. After thinking about it, he simply knelt on the ground and kowtowed to Lu Xiao.
Lu Xiao looked at an old guy in his forties and kowtowed to himself, and his psychology was actually very unpleasant.
The other party worked, he paid, and this was originally a negotiation in a normal business field. But because he is a horse bandit, this natural scene is regarded as a gift by the other party. They both just did what they were supposed to do. But the picture in front of me is so glaring, so, what is wrong there?
However, Lu Xiao's heart was churning, but there was no expression on his face. It's still the same cold look.
"Get up, you don't know and think I bullied you? As I said, buying and selling is buying and selling, and business is business. These are two different things. Today, there are two things, one thing is to settle your salary. In addition, there is another job here, and you can't take it. ”
Leaving the teahouse, two pendants came up.
"Master Lu, your trick is really high. What is this called, putting a long line and catching a big fish? ”
"Shout, you're a good word. Ever read a book? ”
"No, no, it's just that when I was a child, I heard about the book."
"That's right. You're right, now they're just building the dwellings inside. I'm going to replace the outer walls with all the brick and stone. The bamboo was so fragile that it was all gone with a fire. Fence it with a stone wall, and you won't be afraid of anything.
But this job is too big, and ten or eight people don't work at all. So, you have to give them a little favor first. Let them know that this work can be done, and they will come to work for us. You can also bring neighbors, fellow villagers, and relatives to do it together. In this way, the wall can be completed as soon as possible.
If you kill them all now. Then we're going to have to go out and rob a hundred and ten young men and force them to work for us. One hundred and ten young people, and we only have more than fifty people. In the future, you don't have to do anything, just keep an eye on them every day. ”
"What Lu Ye said is true. We rough people will only cut people. To use your brains, you still have to come to Lu Ye. ”
"Needless to say, Lu Ye is the boss's personal disciple, which can be compared to us second-rate sons."
Lu Xiao didn't expect that the two new guys turned out to be two licking dogs. Although it was just a licking dog on the mouth, Lu Xiao still had some pity. It's a pity that the fate of the two followed.
Behind them, Ding'an had followed silently.
