"Not long ago, the documents from the imperial court came down. The new general banner is Chen Jinshi, Mr. Chen. We three little banners pooled our share of the money and wanted to treat Mr. Chen to a meal. I came here to inform you."

Wu Dangkou didn't show off and said it very straightforwardly.

The sparkle in Wu Nian's eyes flashed away.

He was also keen on the position of the general flag. But before, he really had no money and no military achievements, so he could only look back and sigh. Unexpectedly, the new general flag would come out in such a short time.

Chen Jinshi, him, and Wu Dangkou were all small flags under the same general banner. This time, the small flag was raised to the general banner.

I'm going to ride on horseback tomorrow.

After Wu Nian thought for a while, he said to Wu Dangkou: "Brother, how much is the contribution?"

Wu Dangkou waved his hand quickly and said: "The money is enough. You don't need to pay."

Although everyone ostensibly called him brother, he also asked Wu Nian to call him his elder brother. In this hundred households, apart from Jin Mancheng's mental disorder, the officials from Li Kun to Zhu Xiaoqi all got along well with Wu Nian.

But in fact, except for Li Kun, everyone is afraid of Wu Nian.

This person is ruthless.

Li Ding wanted to seize Wu Nian's land, but died in mysterious circumstances.

Cheng Gao just wanted Wu Nian to kneel down, and then disappeared. Until now, the body has not been found. Cheng's family property was divided between Li Kun and Wu Nian.

Wu Nian is not a person, but a tiger, but a wolf. They have also discussed in private about such a person.

In a word: don't mess with them, keep them at a respectful distance.

The last time Wu Nian married a concubine, Xiaoqi and Xiaoqi all gave red envelopes, which were very generous. They were afraid that they would be short of money and suffer Wu Nian's hatred.

This time they simply gave away all their money without Wu Xiaoqi having to pay a penny.

I can't offend you, sir.

Of course, Wu Nian couldn't urinate in the same pot as this group of people. They were all officials, not generals and warriors.

Seeing this, he didn't insist. He cupped his fists and said, "That's really causing trouble for my brothers."

"No trouble, no trouble. The time is tomorrow at noon. Mr. Chen Qi's residence, don't be late." Wu Dangkou waved his hands again and again, very politely.

"Don't worry, brother. I won't be late for things like dinner." Wu Nian said with a smile.

"Hahaha." Wu Dangkou laughed, reached out and patted Wu Nian's shoulder, turned around and left with the light from the lantern raised by his entourage.

"They are all a group of officials." Zhang Jin crossed his arms, with a sneer and contempt on his face.

When he was a soldier, he was bullied by these officials, and finally went to Fenghuang Mountain and became a bandit who was not a bandit.

"No way. This is the way of the world, let's go." Wu Nian stretched out his right hand and patted Zhang Jin's broad back before entering the door.

There were thirteen of them and they had no place to eat. The slaves brought three square tables and set them up in the courtyard.

Wu Nian and Zhang Jin were at one table, and the others were at two tables.

The dishes are freshly prepared, but it will take some time. The slaves brought wine, peanuts, and cold dishes. Zhang Jin picked up the wine jar first, slapped off the mud seal with one hand, filled it for Wu Nian and himself, and the two of them exchanged cups.

Warm yourself up.

"Brother, tomorrow I will send someone to the city to buy war horses, leather, materials for making bows and crossbows, and have people make war coats. Don't worry about the logistics. You can train the two groups of soldiers. Every three

Practice once a day, and you can practice more at other times according to the situation. Don’t worry about food. I, Wu Nian, will do my best to get meat and eggs for them to eat."

Wu Nian peeled off a peanut and stuffed it into his mouth, patted his chest and said to Zhang Jin.

"Don't worry, sir. I will definitely be able to train my soldiers to be strong and brave." Zhang Jin also slapped his chest and said with a serious face.

He was also good at training soldiers, and he met Wu Nian, a man who did not deduct the soldiers' rations but instead subsidized them. He was very ambitious and must train his soldiers well.

"Brother, you should still call me brother Shun Er." Wu Nian shook his head and said dissatisfied.

"This won't work. Now there are differences between top and bottom, so we can't mess around." Zhang Jin also shook his head and insisted on his opinion.

Wu Nian sighed slightly and said nothing more.

After the two brothers had eaten and drank enough, Wu Nian staggered back to the back house. As for the brothers, just let the housekeeper take care of them.

Wu Nian's eyes glowed green and he pushed open the door of the east room. He saw Mrs. Chen already sitting on the bed waiting.

She untied her bun and let her sleek black hair fall down. She put a little rouge on her face, which made her pale skin turn red and her red lips were like fire.

Now that the weather is getting warmer, she did not wear a cotton-padded jacket tonight, but wore a light dress, which perfectly showed off her good figure.

"Sister, you miss me so much."

Wu Nian's eyes lit up and he rushed forward.

Mrs. Chen smiled slightly and allowed him to do whatever he wanted meekly.

Early the next morning, Mrs. Chen was still sleeping soundly in bed. Wu Nian got up in high spirits, turned around and told the red-faced maid to take good care of his wife.

After leaving the east room, Wu Nian saw his young and beautiful fiancée standing in the corridor, staring straight at him with a pair of watery eyes.

Even though Wu Nian was very thick-skinned, he couldn't help but blush slightly.

The noise at night was so loud, but this girl could hear it.

"Cough. Xiang'er." Wu young man coughed and called.

Liu Xiang didn't say anything, she just walked gently to Wu Nian, spread her arms and threw herself into Wu Nian's broad embrace, muttering: "Brother, when will you marry me?"

She is never jealous of Chen.

I just want to be loved by my brother and give birth to a fat boy.

She is seventeen this year. Other people's daughters get married at the age of thirteen, and have two or three children at the age of seventeen.

My brother is a big liar. He said he would marry me in a glorious way when he was rich.

Now, even if he is rich and is an official, he will not marry me.

Hum hum.

Of course Wu Nian was not snubbing her, but he felt sorry for this little girl. In modern society, a seventeen-year-old girl would still be at the age for fun.

He really loves Xiao Nizi and doesn't want to ruin her.

But he also understood Liu Xiang.

In this era, Liu Xiang is an older girl.

After Wu Nian thought for a moment, he smiled, stretched out his hand and pinched her little nose, and said softly: "When brother settles the new slave, we will arrange our marriage."

"Okay." Liu Xiang nodded happily, buried her little head in Wu Nian's chest, and smiled secretly.

Wu Nian and Liu Xiang had a sweet breakfast together. Then he called Li Sheng and asked him to take the housekeeper, a group of soldiers, and some followers to pull a cart and go to the county to buy supplies.

All the money must be spent.

But he has few hands and can only buy little by little.

After arranging this matter, Wu Nian performed a set of boxing and sword skills in the yard, and ran for a while. It was almost noon.

He took Zhang Jin with him and went to the new general banner's home for a banquet.
