009, join the magic door!
"Okay, I'll send you here and get off the bus."
When he was a few hundred meters away from the city gate, Chen Xuanfeng signaled Ni Kun to get off the car.
"Uh, it's already afternoon. Wouldn't Brother Chen and Sister Mei go to the city?"
Ni Kun said reluctantly.
The actual situation was that he was plundered by Chen Xuanfeng and Mei Chaofeng. He had nothing except a robe and a half-old clothes given to him by Chen Xuanfeng.
If you don’t have a single copper plate in your purse, what can you do when you enter the city?
Are you a part-time Beggar Gang disciple sleeping in the streets?
"It's still two hours before dark. We have to continue rushing, so we won't go into the city." Chen Xuanfeng said lightly.
"Okay then." Ni Kun jumped out of the car and looked up at Chen Xuanfeng.
Chen Xuanfeng had no reaction and shook the reins and urged the carriage.
Eh?
Ni Kun blinked his eyes twice: "Brother Chen..."
Chen Xuanfeng raised his hand:
"The road to the world is long, I'll see you again if you're destined to be together!"
Ni Kun said anxiously: "No, Brother Chen..."
Mei Chaofeng lifted the curtains, blinked his eyelids, and interrupted his words:
"Brother Ni, it really doesn't work. Just practice the Sunflower Book! Going to the palace to do things is also a way out."
"No, I mean..." Ni Kun raised his hand and asked to leave: "I'm penniless, can I borrow..."
"Don't go!"
Chen Xuanfeng waved his whip suddenly, and with a crisp sound, the horse spread its four hooves and ran up quickly, dragging the carriage and ran away.
"Goodbye, take care of yourself!" Mei Chaofeng waved his hand at him with a smile.
“…”
Looking at the carriage that was rising rapidly in the rising smoke and dust, Ni Kun looked confused and was messy in the wind:
"Do you want to be so stingy..."
In any case, Chen Xuanfeng and Mei Chaofeng had both gone far away. No matter how poor Ni Kun was, he could only grit his teeth and walk towards the city gate alone.
Speaking of which, he was quite grateful to Chen Xuanfeng and Mei Chaofeng.
If it weren't for them, he would have been blinded by the world. Now, he has some basic understanding and will not be completely confused.
"It's recruiting!"
When I was about to reach the city gate, I suddenly heard a gong sound, and someone shouted in the open space in front of the city gate.
On the open space outside the city, there were many men and women wearing shabby clothes and with vegetables. I don’t know whether it was a local poor family or a refugee who moved to Xiangyang to avoid war.
At this moment, when he heard the shouts, a large group of men and women suddenly became energetic and swarmed over.
"Recruit me, recruit me! I am a farmer, and I am not afraid of hardship!"
"I have the strength to recruit me. I only need two full meals a day to be able to serve as a cow for my boss!"
"I can farm, I am good at cleaning, cooking, washing, weaving, and cloth..."
In the midst of the noise, the poor men and women were about to rush around the gong-beating man, when several big men suddenly rushed out from behind the man, holding sticks and beating them around, driving away the poor men and women around.
The green hat, who was in his thirties, looked like a gong-beating man who was a big businessman, smiled, beat the gong twice, and said loudly:
"I am the manager of the Qiandalongtou Mansion in Hanshui. This time, I will choose a hero who knows how to fight, kick, and fight, and dare not be afraid of death! Farmers who do not have kung fu should not join in the fun! Those who have kung fu come to me first and wait for the choice!"
As soon as this said, most men and women retreated in disappointment and sat back around the open space helplessly.
Only a dozen men stayed in line in front of the Han River Sect’s manager.
Ni Kun was poor and had no idea about dinner today. He was naturally moved when he heard that the manager was in charge. He was about to come over and try to see if he could get a odd job and solve the survival problem first. But when he heard that it was the Hanshui school who was hiring, he had to stop helplessly.
He is a gentle and gentle scholar, but he can't be a gang thug who can fight and kill.
Besides, he also knew about the Hanshui Sect, which is the gang under the name of Qian Duguan, the richest man in Xiangyang.
Qian Duguan nicknamed "Shuangdao". He is not only a rich man in silk business, but also a martial arts expert with great martial arts skills. He is also quite talented in governing the country. The most important thing is that he is also an outsider of the Yingui Sect of the Demon Sect.
If Ni Kun wants to join the Yin Sheng Sect and use the Sunflower Book as a gift for offering, it is absolutely right to find money to keep you alone.
Although Qian Duguan is a member of the Demon Sect, he still has the identity of a businessman and the leader of the big gang. Naturally, he will not act as freely as the core disciples of the Yingui Sect, and he will not act as cruel and narrow-minded as the core disciples of the Yingui Sect.
This person has a pretty good reputation and is quite popular in Xiangyang City. If you trade with him with the Sunflower Book, you may have some guarantees.
However, with Ni Kun's current situation, it is impossible to meet him, let alone enter the house to make a transaction.
If you first become a disciple of the Hanshui Sect, you will have the chance to get close to Qian Duguan, but the problem is that they won’t want him!
Ni Kun stood aside, mingling among the poor men and women, watching the Hanshui faction's managers assessing the dozen men lined up.
The assessment method is simple, it is to fight with the Hanshui disciples brought by the manager. If you really have the skills to do it, you will know naturally if you move.
The man who was ranked first at the forefront asked the Hanshui Sect for a wooden stick, held the wooden stick in his hand, and fought with a Hanshui Sect disciple.
"Kung Fu is OK. Look at your sword technique, is it a killing method in the army? Are deserters? Don't be afraid. Our Hanshui Sect doesn't have so many taboos. We welcome the heroes in the army the most... You have passed! Next!"
"Well, your kung fu is a bit rough, but your strength is OK. Being a caravan guard is barely enough. Next one!...Hey, you kid can't do anything, but you dare to come over? Want to get away with it, am I blind to be an old man?"
"Okay, good, small, very strong, and not afraid of hardship..."
"Stop talking nonsense, my Hanshui school does not raise farmers..."
After a while, I passed away a few farmers who were lucky enough to try to get in, and picked out more than ten strong men with some skills. The Hanshui Sect manager beat the gong and said loudly:
"My Hanshui school still needs to recruit a few accounting documents. Can anyone read and write and know how to calculate? As long as you can read and write, you can get as many as you can get. The treatment is good, including food and accommodation, two new sets of clothes per season, and the monthly money is still above ordinary gang members!"
Nowadays, cultural knowledge is mastered in the hands of aristocratic families and great families.
Among ordinary people, nine out of ten people are illiterate, and the remaining one is mostly just big words that can barely recognize, and it is far from being able to read and write.
Therefore, those who can read and write and know how to calculate are considered talents, so it is natural that they are treated well.
Upon hearing this, Ni Kun's eyes lit up immediately, he hurriedly walked out of the crowd, raised his hand and said:
"I, I can read and write, and I know how to calculate numbers!"
The Hanshui Sect manager did not expect to encounter "talents" who could read and write among these refugees. He just shouted casually and blew his luck.
Seeing that someone came out to apply for the election, I was surprised. I glanced up and saw that although Ni Kun was dressed simply and old, she looked handsome and fair-skinned. Her right hand raised was slender and her skin was tender. She looked like she was not a bitter person. She smiled and said:
"A big-name young man like you also respects our Hanshui faction?"
Ni Kun shook his head sadly:
"What kind of big-name young man? He is just a person who is in trouble who is destroyed by the bandits and is only forbidden to avoid it."
Since the seventh year of Daye, Wang Bu, "Zhi Shilang" wrote the "Song of Death toward Liaodong". Since the first raising of the Yi Banner in Changbai Mountain, chaos has gradually arisen in the Sui Dynasty, and various rebellions have been on the rise one after another for five years.
In the ninth year of Daye, there was the Yang Xuangan Rebellion. Although the rebellion was quickly pacified, it greatly shook the rule of the Sui Dynasty.
To this day, the world has become a rebel army and bandits are everywhere.
I don’t know how many wealthy families were conquered by the riots. It’s not uncommon for rich young men to wander in the countryside.
Therefore, the Hanshui Sect manager did not doubt Ni Kun's statement and nodded with a smile:
"Since I am a big family, I think I can really read and calculate. Come here."
Later, he asked Ni Kun's name again. Ni Kun only said that he was from Jingling. After being defeated by the bandits, he was wandering here with the refugees to avoid chaos. The manager took out a volume of historical records and casually took out a paragraph for Ni Kun to recite. Ni Kun read it up in a slight manner. The manager wrote out several basic exams of addition, subtraction, multiplication and division. After passing one by one, the manager picked up his beard with satisfaction and signaled him to pass the assessment.
In this way, Ni Kun successfully joined the Hanshui faction on the first day after arriving in Xiangyang and became a glorious reserve accountant.
Although it seems that there is no future, at least the survival problem has been temporarily solved. There is no need to sleep on the streets hungry at night.
And to be honest, he is now an organized person-
The peripheral member of the Yingui Sect of the Demon Sect, "Shuangdao", Qian Duguan, is under the command of the Hanshui Sect reserve accountant. I will ask if you are afraid!
