Confusion is only temporary. Zhou Fan knew from a very young age that if he didn’t even have the courage to solve problems and could only be an ostrich, he would have to wait to die.

In his previous life, his parents died very early, and only grandma took him and his sister. Grandma was old and weak, and still gritted her teeth to maintain the family life. Zhou Fan also inherited grandma's perseverance and unyielding character.

Zhou Fan's eyes quickly became clear. He looked at Zhou Yimu and said, "Dad, what should I do now?"

Zhou Fan was completely unfamiliar with the world. Gui Feng was weak in nature and was just an ordinary peasant woman. On the contrary, although Zhou Yimu was taciturn, he was very independent in speaking and doing things, so Zhou Fan could only ask Zhou Yimu.

Zhou Yimu was deeply relieved when he saw Zhou Fan calm down so quickly. In his opinion, it was important to be able to calm down quickly. This was the basis for whether Zhou Fan could survive. If he was panicked when encountering trouble, it would be difficult to survive on patrol.

It seems that his son's hair tie ceremony has matured a lot in an instant. Zhou Yimu thought to himself and quickly said, "You can't be anxious about this matter, we have to wait first."

Zhou Fan raised his eyebrows slightly, but he believed Zhou Yimu and did not continue talking.

Life has to continue anyway. Guifeng quickly cheered up from her sadness. She was busy making today's lunch. Zhou Fan wanted to go in and help, as a filial piety. After all, he couldn't say that he could only live for four years.

At this time, Muramamara Luo Litian arrived at the Zhou family.

"Yimu." Luo Litian said seriously. He always smiled, but he couldn't laugh when he came to the door this time, so he looked very serious.

Luo Litian is very experienced in dealing with such things. If his attitude is not correct, he may give the other party the opportunity to take advantage of the situation.

"Muramasato, please come inside." Zhou Yimu knew that Luo Litian would definitely come, so he was prepared.

Luo Litian was not polite and followed Zhou Yimu into the small hall of Zhou's family and sat on the wooden chair that was about to fall apart.

Zhou Fan went out of the kitchen and soon brought Luo Litian a glass of water.

Zhou Yinmu lit the dark red tobacco on the cigarette bottle and started sucking. He was waiting for Luo Litian to speak.

Luo Litian glanced at Zhou Fan standing next to him and wanted to speak but stopped.

"Mura Masaru, he has his hair tied up today, so he is not a child. I don't plan to hide the family's affairs from him." Zhou Yimu said lightly.

"Okay." Luo Litian nodded and said, "Yi Mu, this is the case. Children who have finished their hair tie must obey the village's arrangements and do things, and Afan is no exception."

"Recently, the patrol team urgently needs to be replenished. I think Afan is very smart, so I want him to join the patrol team and contribute to Sanqiu Village. What do you think?"

Zhou Yimu nodded and said, "No problem."

Zhou Yimu knew that Luo Litian asked him for his opinion, but he was just kind to say that Zhou Fan had such a low lifespan and could only join the patrol team, and he could not refuse.

"Then thank you for your understanding first." Luo Litian picked up the cup and took a sip of water, and his hanging heart fell to the ground.

Luo Litian originally thought that the Zhou family was the most troublesome to deal with. After all, Zhou Yimu is very popular in the village and is quite difficult to provoke. If Zhou Yimu did something for his son, Luo Litian would not feel surprised.

Fortunately, things went smoothly.

"When will he report to the patrol team?" Zhou Yimu asked with a puff of cigarettes.

"The patrol team is very anxious. The patrol team said that they will join the team in five days." Luo Litian showed an apology on his face, "so the time is temporarily set at the time of the Mao hour in five days, which is the sixth morning from today."

The hour of Mao is when the sun rises and dawns, usually refers to 05:00 to 07:00.

"Okay, I will let him report on time." Zhou Yimu simply responded.

Seeing Zhou Yimu agreeing, Luo Litian reached into his arms and then placed three light gold round holes and round coins on the wooden table.

The round money is engraved with tadpole-shaped runes.

"According to the rules, these three mysterious coins are the first rewards from the village to join the patrol team. From now on, Afan can receive a copper coin every month and a mysterious coins every year as his salary. I don't worry, the village will not treat Afan badly." Luo Litian explained warmly.

As Luo Litian was talking, he looked at the three mysterious coins, with a hint of greed in his eyes.

This is the money-making process of the officials of the Great Wei State, and it is a good currency.

Of course, no matter how envious he is, Luo Litian dares not be greedy at all, because this is money for life!

You can be greedy for any money, but you can't be greedy for this life-salary money. Otherwise, let alone those who are pursuing their lives, the strict laws of Wei alone can kill him.

Zhou Yimu looked at the three mysterious coins without any expression of happiness on his face, because it was a life-long money, which was equivalent to selling his son's life to the patrol team.

Zhou Fan naturally understood, and he sighed, feeling like he couldn't help it.

Zhou Yimu had made it clear to Zhou Fan that joining the patrol was his only choice, and there was no other choice.

Luo Litian's mission to come to the Zhou family this time was completed. He stood up and said, "Then I won't disturb you."

"I'm making lunch, and I'll leave after lunch."

"No, there are still many things I have to deal with, and I'll bother me next time."

“…”

Zhou Yinmu sent Luo Litian out, turned around and walked back.

A soft cry came from the kitchen. It was obvious that Guifeng knew that the village Luo Litian was coming to send her life to pay for money, which made her sad and she started crying again.

Zhou Yimu didn't know how to comfort him in this kind of thing. He walked into the hall and Zhou Fan was frowning and staring at the three mysterious coins on the table, not knowing what he was thinking.

"This money is of great use to you, so I will leave it to me to deal with it for you, and you cannot use it indiscriminately." Zhou Yimu walked over, put away all three mysterious coins on the table, and said in an unquestionable tone.

Zhou Yimu was worried that Zhou Fan would be experiencing his birthday and wanted to give up on himself with money.

Zhou Fan just smiled and said, "I have no objection, but how much is the value of this mysterious coin exchanged into copper coins?"

"A Xuan coins are worth a total of one thousand coins, that is, a thousand coins of copper." Zhou Yimu explained, "but there is often a price but no market."

Zhou Fan nodded, and the village gave him three stakes of copper coins at once. This really surprised Zhou Fan, but when he thought that this was his life-long money, Zhou Fan felt that it was not too much.

After all, life is still the most valuable.

"I'll go and comfort my mother." Zhou Fan stood up and stopped asking about money. He believed that Zhou Yimu would make arrangements for him.

After lunch, Guifeng sprinkled some corn on the ground. The yellow-feathered chickens raised by the Zhou family gathered around and pecked the rice. She caught the largest old hen with one hand.

She tied the old hen's chicken claws with a straw rope, picked them in, and handed them to Zhou Yinmu.

"Dad, who are you going to visit?" Zhou Fan looked at Zhou Yimu curiously and mentioned the old hen.

In ancient times, raising poultry in rural areas was very consuming food, and I was reluctant to slaughter them for food. I kept them and laid eggs. I really thought about selling them if I didn’t lay eggs or slaughter them for celebration when the festival came.

"It's not me, but us." Zhou Yimu said correctly, "You go to Lukui's house with me."

"Lu Kui?" Zhou Fan frowned slightly.

...

...

As his name suggests, Lu Kui is very burly. He is about seven feet tall and not small in size. He sits naked on a wide mahogany armchair like a hill.

When Zhou Fan first saw Lu Kui, he took a deep breath. What surprised Zhou Fan was not Lu Kui's height, but Lu Kui's muscles all over his body, and each muscle was filled with explosive power.

During the process of coming, Zhou Fan learned from Zhou Yimu that Lu Kui was the captain of the patrol team, but Zhou Fan did not expect that the captain of the patrol team would be so... burly.

Before you report, it is not a strange thing to visit your peak, especially in a team like the patrol team that encounters danger at any time, so it is even more appropriate to visit the peak.

Zhou Fan agreed with Zhou Yimu's arrangement.

"Brother Zhou, you are so polite. I welcome you and Afan to visit, but don't bring gifts. It's not easy to raise this old hen. You will take it back later." Lu Kui laughed, his beard trembling, and he looked very generous.

Lu Kui sees that he is at most in his thirties, so it is natural to call Zhou Yimu, brother Zhou.

Lu Kui's wife Lu brought tea to Zhou Fan and Zhou Yimu and retreated.

Zhou Fan looked at the layout of the house and said that not to mention other furniture, the hall alone was twice as large as the Zhou family. Obviously, Lu Kui's family has a rich background.

Zhou Yimu was not good at such socializing. He just shook his head and said, "It's just an old hen, you can stay."

Lu Kui just nodded slightly. Of course, he would not get too entangled in such small things. He turned to say: "Brother Zhou came this time, and I also know why Afan joins the patrol team is not something I can stop, but Afan is also the one I have seen since I was a child. Don't worry, Brother Zhou is that in the patrol team, I will definitely take care of Afan."

Lu Kui said this in a calm tone, very skilled, and it can even be said to be somewhat formulaic.

Zhou Fan heard this, and Lu Kui probably said this to many people.

"Then I'll trouble you." Zhou Yimu nodded mutely, took out a mysterious coin from his arms and pushed it on the table.

Lu Kui stared at the mysterious coin without moving his eyes. He took a deep breath and looked at Zhou Yimu and said, "Brother Zhou, this mysterious coin is too expensive. You should take it back without any merits."

As the captain of the patrol team, Lu Kui can receive two mysterious coins in a month, which sounds quite a lot, but the dangers of the patrol team are well known, and the salary is not much.

In fact, Lu Kui has only been promoted to the captain of the patrol team for half a year, and his ex-executives have all died in office.

Not everyone can claim the mysterious coins, and Lu Kui is not sure how long he can claim the mysterious coins.

Every mysterious coin is fought back with all his life, and every mysterious coin is very precious.
