Chapter 2: Enlightenment (II)

Zhang Xuanning didn't bother, and listened carefully, the more he listened, the more surprised he became, and a possibility came to mind more and more - if it was an organization like a gangster in the real world, he would despise it to the end, because the gangster would not be on the table no matter what, but the gangster in Su Ye's mouth was not inferior to gangs such as the famous Tiandi Hui and the Hong Gang in history, and even surpassed it, this Bamboo Flower Gang was just a regional organization according to the words, but the organization was very tight. Under the gang leader, there is a military advisor, followed by the four halls of 'wind, sunshine, rain, and dew', and the helmsman, incense lord and gangsters under the leadership of almost all the nearby counties, with a total number of more than 10,000 people, and a well-organized upper and lower level, and a large amount of wealth and industry, so it is not so much a gangster as a paramilitary organization.

While listening to Zhang Xuanning, he was already thinking about it, and when Su Ye finished speaking, he asked tentatively: "Master Su, what do you mean by this?"

"Don't look at me, I'm old and useless, I was an old man who followed the helper to break into the world back then, and then I was injured and disabled, and the helper still sympathized with me and left me a place in the hall, but when I'm old, I still go home to do things - but who in the neighborhood doesn't sell me a few points of Su Ye's face?" Su Ye said this, naturally with a long-lost majesty: "Don't say anything else, your boss Lao Feng is also taken care of by me, otherwise he has such a peaceful life?" I also know about your affairs for a long time, I have been paying attention to you for a long time, you have a good character, you are a talent that can be made, you are not a place to stay for a long time, a little gossip, and you are also wronged, you can read and write, and you have practiced martial arts, this is too wretched. ”

"Master Liu, do you want to take me in?"

"I'm too old to take you in, but I can introduce you to the gang, and even arrange for you to meet with the gang leader once, the gang leader will still give me this face, not to mention anything else in the future, it's more than enough to get a position of the deputy incense master in Yangzhou City, but we don't have any reputation now!" Su Ye said meaningfully.

Thinking like lightning, Zhang Xuanning immediately remembered this Su Ye's intentions, no matter how many old people were in the past, the influence of the gang would decline if he was half withdrawn, and his son was cut off early, when there was no future at all, because there was no suitable successor in the gang, so in order to keep his influence and leave a way back for his children and grandchildren, it was natural for him to move this thought.

"I understand Su Ye's good intentions, and the child meets his godfather. Zhang Xuanning's heart moved, and he immediately knelt down and bowed his head deeply to the ground.

This kind of simple decision also made Su Ye stunned, he wanted to accept an apprentice or something, but now this title also made him stay for a few seconds before laughing: "Okay, Wu'er, please get up, please get up." ”

After Zhang Xuanning got up, the relationship between the two was immediately different, in ancient times, the relationship between the godfather and the godfather was absolutely extraordinary.

After thinking about it, Su Ye said: "Oh, Wu'er, you quit your job when you go back this time, rush back to my house for Chinese New Year's Eve, although you have lost your memory, but seeing that your background is not necessarily mediocre, I dare not change your surname for you, just be a son with a foreign surname!"

"It's godfather, but I'm still done with my morning's work, it's a matter of loyalty to my subordinates!" Zhang Xuanning said this, and smiled in his heart, could he still plot to rob you of this bit of family property? At the moment, he still replied respectfully, and then looked at it to see that there was nothing wrong, and said a few words before leaving.

Changing the surname and not changing the surname is completely different in ancient times, not changing the surname, that is, the godfather belongs to the kinship between individuals, and has nothing to do with the clan.

Pulled the vegetable cart back to the store, although it is said that it is almost the New Year, but it is still considered that some customers do not say much at the moment, just pull the dishes back, and then hurriedly help.

"It's stormy......" After a few drinks, some of the guests who came and went from all over the world began to talk again, and they were much less restrained than the locals: "Isn't it...... Chen Cao, Liang Huishang, Li San'er, Zhu Xie, Guan Chong, and Lu Xingxing have all rebelled, and there are more and more bandits nearby, and the situation is not optimistic!"

"Yes, there are so many things in the world, hey, when we fight, we will be miserable...... I'd rather be a peaceful dog than a troubled world!"

Everyone sighed more and more: "I think it was much more peaceful than it is now." ”

Listening casually and doing things casually, he inadvertently turned his eyes to the outside of the store, but saw a young man who was almost fourteen or fifteen years old, and said with a smile: "Hello sister-in-law, I'll buy eight vegetable and meat buns!"

Originally, there was nothing, but looking at his clothes, his face was stained with oil, his clothes were ragged, and his face was frozen, he couldn't help but take a second look.

When the sister-in-law saw this young man, she first looked back worriedly, and looked back at Lao Feng and the eldest woman who couldn't be busy inside, and saw that they couldn't see the situation here, so she put her mind at ease.

While dealing with the other guests, she pretended to be coquettish and said, "I don't have the money to learn what buns to buy?"

The young man laughed and said, "If you have a delay, I will pay you back tomorrow." ”

Sister-in-law Zhen took four buns in the fastest way, hesitated for a moment, took two more, wrapped them in paper, stuffed them into his hand, and scolded in a low voice: "This is the last trip! ”

The boy cheered and withdrew from the pile, and as soon as his waist straightened, he immediately became more energetic, and before he had taken a few steps, another teenager snatched it out, grabbed a bun and stuffed it into his mouth, and ate it in a big gulp.

Looking at this appearance, Zhang Xuanning was still smiling, and Sister-in-law Zhen was really soft-hearted, but a trace of warmth emerged in her heart, and she also blocked the sight inside, intentionally or unintentionally.

But as soon as I paid attention to it, my heart suddenly lit up, and the scene in front of me was like lightning, illuminating the mystery in my heart for several months.

Suddenly shocked in his heart, he unconsciously stepped forward and carefully looked at the two teenagers in front of him.

The one who munched on the bun had broad shoulders and thick arms, rather thick ears, and the other was slightly taller and looked very likable, with long eyes and a high elf nose, a wide forehead, and a sunny smile on the corner of his mouth.

The two teenagers suddenly noticed that someone was looking at them, and when they saw that it was the guy in the store, they hurriedly retreated outside and avoided the crowd.

Seeing that Zhang Xuanning also looked at their sister-in-law, she shouted, "Come and help." ”

"Huh? Zhang Xuanning was startled, came back to his senses and stepped forward to help.

Although in the cold wind, Sister-in-law Zhen was still busy with fragrant sweat, and as she passed by, she whispered: "Just now, the two were the leaders of the little orphans who couldn't eat, and they gathered in the dilapidated houses outside the city, if he wasn't hungry, he wouldn't have come to me." ”

"Sister-in-law, you are so kind. When he said the word sister-in-law, he couldn't help but read the accent: "Do you know what their names are?"

"It seems that one is called Kou Zhong and the other is Xu Ziling, poor parents, both were killed by the rebels, and now they are orphans. ”

"Really?" Zhang Xuanning responded calmly, but his hand was trembling.

After a while, there was no one in the shop, and when the rest time came, he allowed his emotions to be exposed, and walked into the snow outside, which looked not too big and not too dense, like catkins floating lightly in the wind, as the wind blew more and more fiercely, the snow became denser and denser, and the snowflakes became larger and larger, as if weaving a white net, and he couldn't see anything in the distance. It was like a continuous curtain falling straight to the ground, and slowly the dark sky became one with the sea of snow, and nothing could be seen.

Zhang Xuanning was motionless in the snow, his mind was like countless thunderbolts, and there were only four words in his heart: "Datang Shuanglong, Datang Shuanglong......!"
