In the sixth year of Kaitai, I graduated from the Taishan School, and I was eighteen years old when I was opened. The first job was as a nursing home in Zhang Xiucai's house, with a monthly salary of 500 yuan, including food and housing.

Actually, I could have been officially out of the school, but in the graduation competition, there was a little accident. According to the rules of the Taishan faction, the Taishan faction learns to become a teacher, and it is necessary to pass the four arts examinations of boxing, soldiering, royalty, and mathematics, and obtain the middle evaluation.

Originally, it was not a difficult matter, the Taishan faction 36 sets of boxing methods, except for the Storm Boxing and Wuyue Boxing that only the disciples of the descendants can learn, I have practiced most of the boxing methods. But the interview was unlucky, and I was able to draw the boxing skills that I learned at the beginning.

This set of boxing methods has a total of eighteen styles, and I have not reviewed them at all when preparing for the exam, and after a set of comparisons, I have forgotten seven or eight styles. According to the senior brother who graduated last year, this is not a big deal, you only need to give the examiner a red envelope after the comparison.

But unfortunately, I drank with my brother the day before the exam, thinking that I was about to leave the school to break into the rivers and lakes, and I was full of pride, and at the instigation of my brother, I wrote a love letter to Su Wanqing, the goddess of the Taishan faction. As a result, the love letter was given to the examiner's old virgin Sun Boyun, and the result can be imagined, so he left his school in a daze.

The Taishan faction is not a famous sect such as Shaolin, Wudang, Qingcheng, and Emei, and the apprentices taught by this sect have been recruited by the imperial court, the army, or major families before they have left the school. The Taishan faction is only a branch of the Wuyue faction, and it is even more difficult for an apprentice like me to find a job.

As a fledgling, I just wanted to learn from the rangers who had come to Taishan to visit, fight the sword rivers and lakes, and visit the rivers and lakes, the original intention was to go to the capital to find a job and earn some entanglements, and when I arrived in the capital, I took refuge in a senior brother Wang Qinian, who came out of school last year.

It's not as good as I thought in the capital, and I hit a wall everywhere when looking for a job. The senior brother said that there are too many famous families in the capital, and the four major gates do not accept the teachers, that is, the outer disciples of the eight great families, and any one of them picks out martial arts will abuse me for eight streets. A small sect like ours can't find too many jobs in the capital, so we can only do work as bodyguards, security guards and the like, and even the chengguan doesn't have our share.

Senior Brother Qi Nian is now doing some collection work in a money bank, earning 800 wen per month, and the bonus dividend is calculated separately according to the collection situation. I stayed in Beijing for more than a month, and the two taels of silver on my body were clean, and it was not a way to rely on Senior Brother Qinian every day, plus he recently talked about a girl, so I moved out.

After a few years at another brother's house, Brother Qi Nian came to me and said that he had introduced me to a job in the casino in charge of a housekeeper in King Yongding.

When I arrived at the gambling field, the person in charge saw my resume, and when he saw that it was not the four major schools and eight major families, his face was unhappy.

Sect?

Tarzan.

Oh, Tarzan pie, Muay Thai, you?

I have black lines in my head.

What are the relationships in Beijing?

There are five or six senior brothers.

What for?

When I introduced them, he shook his head and refused.

I don't accept it, you haven't tried my martial arts, why do you reject me?

The steward sneered, what era is this? It doesn't matter if you are in the capital, you don't have good looks, and we are not the Red Cross, so why do we want you?

What's wrong with my appearance, although I am not a beautiful man, but I also have clear eyebrows and beautiful eyes, and I am a talent.

The steward said, do you think you are a happy boy? We are gambling, and Liu San at the door is more handsome than you.

I rubbed and was despised. Although I was poor and white, I still had a little backbone, so I came out. glanced at Liu San at the door, with a cross-faced face and a scar from his forehead to his eyebrows. That's so handsome.

After this incident turned yellow, I no longer had hope of finding a job in the capital, and when I was about to leave, I saw a piece of paper on a wall on the side of the road, and Zhang Xiucai of Jinan Prefecture was recruiting a nursing home.

Zhang Xiucai is a native of Jinan Mansion, after losing the imperial examination, his family spent money to donate an official, the mansion was just completed, and I went in for an interview. The housekeeper asked me what I could do. I had a heart and said, "I'm going to break a big rock in my chest." The other party asked if you would uproot the weeping willows? My face was slightly red, and I beat the tiger with my bare hands, but I have done it a few times.

gave me a two-hundred-pound stone lock, I lifted more than a hundred in one go, and the housekeeper looked at it, okay, the strength is not small, it's you. 500 wen per month, including food and accommodation.

I said, I'm here for the three words "food and shelter".

Okay, start work tomorrow.

Big housekeeper, can you not do it today?

What's the matter, I want to work so much, and I have a good attitude.

Oh no, I don't have a place to stay at night. Dinner hasn't been settled yet.

The first job was decided in this way, and this year, the price of rice in the capital was 200 Wen.

This job is said to be a nursing home, but in fact, it is a house, and the main job is to run errands, do chores, receive guests, and be responsible for the night guard work by the way. This job is extremely boring, and it is far from what I imagined when I first came down the mountain.

After the first month's salary, I invited a few of my classmates to have a meal in Zuixian Building, and spent 200 Wen. complained about this kind of life with his peers, and there was a senior brother Sun Debiao, who was walking darts in the Longmen Dart Bureau, and boasted to me about his knowledge of going south and north in the past few years, which made me blush. So he asked if he could introduce me to the Dragon Gate Dart Game.

Senior Brother Sun's words flickered a little, and he didn't agree directly, but he told me that the Central Plains Dart Bureau was recruiting, and my martial arts were so good that I could try it. I listened to it in my heart.

After inquiring with someone, it was easy to find out about the place of the Central Plains Dart Bureau, a dilapidated yard with grass growing on the walls. The Central Plains Dart Bureau was one of the four major dart games 20 years ago, and then once because of the escort tribute was robbed, the head of the dart board was questioned by the imperial court, poured all the family wealth, and ended up with the end of the distribution of Liaodong, after that, the Central Plains Dart Bureau declined. The current four major dart games are Longmen Dart Bureau, Mighty Dart Bureau, Zhenyuan Dart Bureau and Nanhai Dart Bureau.
