Chapter 178 The distinguished guest comes to the door
"The boss has returned to the village!"
"The big boss is mighty!"
The shouts of the bandits were like a triumphal ceremony. Leader Ma was at the forefront, followed by a carriage loaded with treasures. The gold and silver treasures shone brightly in the sun, causing everyone to howl like wolves and raise their arms and weapons to boo.
.
Chief Ma enjoyed the feeling of being surrounded by stars very much. Anyone who came forward to ask for a fortune would just say a few nice words and he would reward them with a small amount of property, which attracted everyone to work hard to please them.
But how high can the cultural level of a group of bandits be? Just two sentences are repeated over and over again. It will be fresh to find something out of those expensive words and rearrange them.
Surrounded by the brothers, he returned to the hall. Leader Ma ordered the brothers to prepare wine and meat for a lively celebration. He sat down on the tiger leather chair and secretly rubbed the purple wounds on his body.
"Brother."
A strong man came forward, looked at Leader Ma worriedly and said, "You are injured, why don't you go down the mountain and ask a doctor?"
"Third brother, are you crazy? What kind of business do we do? Do you dare to ask a doctor? Do you have the guts to come?"
At this moment, Leader Ma restrained the bandit leader's sharpness. He gently pressed the injury on his body, and while baring his teeth, he lowered his voice and said: "Just take some medicine and apply it. By the way, Third Brother, you will come back tomorrow."
When you go to the county, be careful not to disturb anyone."
The third child looked around cautiously, and then responded: "I know, brother, I'll get you some medicine."
...
On the other side, Qinggan Village was celebrating with a feast of wine and meat. On this side, Zhenwei Escort, whose escort had been robbed, was holding back his breath, unable to get up or get out.
News in this county spread very quickly. After a few days, everyone seemed to know that their escort agency had suffered a setback in Qinggan Mountain. The reputation of Zhenwei Escort Agency was severely damaged.
boom!
The elderly chief escort officer Hong Wuye slapped his hands on the table, and the tea cup trembled and fell to the ground and fell into pieces. The two escort chiefs present frowned, and one of them lost it this time.
The head escort, Chen, sighed and said, "It's my fault this time. Please punish me, Fifth Master."
"Old Chen, what you said is wrong. It was obviously Qingganshan's bullying that went too far. How could it be your fault?" Another middle-aged escort leader with a sharp face and eagle eyes said.
"But--"
"alright."
Biaotou Chen still wanted to speak, but was interrupted by Mr. Hong Wu who raised his hand. His piercing eyes swept over the two of them and said sonorously and forcefully: "Lao Yu is right about this matter. It's not your fault, it's Mrs. Ma's.
furious!"
The escort leader Yu hesitated for a moment and said: "Qingganshan is unscrupulous and had a bad relationship with us the year before last. It happened again this year. If it continues like this, the Zhenwei Escort Bureau will definitely become a laughing stock. But they have a large number of people. If
I'm waiting to come to ask for an explanation, but I'm afraid the outcome is uncertain, so why not... why not report this matter to the county?"
"No."
Captain Chen immediately rejected Yu's words and said: "The Jianghu is about the Jianghu. I have sought help from the imperial court this time. I'm afraid it will be difficult for me to raise my head in this Jianghu in the future."
After Hong Wuye pondered for a moment, he also said: "What I said is inappropriate. Don't forget that the bastard surnamed Ma is able to live freely today, not all because we, the county master, dare not take action to deal with it. If this matter is dealt with
If we report it, I'm afraid the county is just doing it superficially, and we are bringing shame on ourselves by doing this."
Yu Biaotou lowered his head with an ugly expression: "I was careless."
Just when the three of them were angry and unable to do anything about it, a person came in and reported: "The chief escort and the two escorts have guests coming to the door."
The three of them looked at each other, and Hong Wuye stood up and said, "I understand."
Then he said to the other two people: "We will discuss this later. Let's deal with the matters at hand first."
"yes."
"clear."
The three of them came out of the courtyard together, and saw a young master standing in front of them. He was dressed in brocade and jade, wearing a white fox fur coat. He was holding a red lacquer heater with gold lotus in his hand. He was followed by a little girl with white teeth and red lips, wearing a white coat with a flying butterfly.
Looks very wealthy.
In this remote small county, such a beautifully dressed man and woman naturally attracted the attention of many people who didn't know where they were.
Master Hong Wu felt a sense of nobility coming towards his face. He quietly exchanged glances with the other two bodyguards, and each of them had an idea.
Although Zhenwei Escort Bureau is only famous in one-third of an acre of land, Mr. Hong Wu has gained a lot of experience in traveling around the country over the years. Judging from the clothes of these two people, if they are brother and sister, they must come from an upper-class family. If they are a master and a servant...
...It can only be said that the New Year's incense money was not in vain. Buddha appeared and sent this big deal.
"You two, please speak inside."
Hong Wuye immediately responded with great vigor. He invited Lu Hanjiang and Shangluo to the hall, arranged for people to serve tea, and said, "This house is simple and simple. I'm neglecting you two."
Lu Hanjiang picked up the tea and smelled it, but did not drink it but put it back far away. Although this rude move made Chen and Yu frown, it also made Hong Wuye more convinced that this was the case.
The two have extraordinary origins.
"I came all the way and heard about the great reputation of the Zhenwei Escort Agency and that all of its escorts are highly skilled in martial arts. I wonder if this is true?"
Lu Hanjiang's words seemed to be looking for trouble. The two dart leaders were already worried, especially when they had just missed a dart. His words were more like adding salt to the wound and mocking them.
But Mr. Hong Wu was the senior one in the end, so he sensed something was wrong in these words, and said with a smile: "Young master, if you have anything to ask, please feel free to ask. Our Zhenwei Escort Bureau is considered a time-honored brand in this hundred miles radius."
, a little late at night is nothing to worry about.”
"Hong is very happy."
Lu Hanjiang smiled slightly and said, "You must have heard of the bandits in the Qinggan Mountain area, right?"
"..."
Hong Wuye squinted his eyes. He was a little unclear about Lu Hanjiang's purpose at the moment, so he had to follow his words: "There is a group of bandits, and the leader is named Ma. He is good at swordsmanship, and his martial arts skills are probably not good enough."
Above me."
Pfft - Shang Luo over there couldn't help but laugh out loud. Seeing Mr. Hong Wu frowning, Lu Hanjiang said nonchalantly: "In this case, I wonder if Mr. Hong dares to accept this deal?"
.”
"Master, please speak frankly." Mr. Hong Wu asked calmly. At this moment, he had already guessed what Lu Hanjiang was going to say.
Lu Hanjiang rubbed the heater in his hand and said calmly: "That group of bandits is an eyesore. I can't stand it, but it's hard to get rid of it myself, so I want to ask escort Hong to help. You are in an embarrassing situation now."
, this can be regarded as getting rid of harm for your 'name'."
As soon as these words came out, Chen and Yu had different expressions. The former seemed to be moved, while the latter was slightly worried. However, it was Hong Wuye who made the decision. After thinking about it again and again, he declined politely: "Young Master, please
Go back, Zhenwei Escort Agency is not in the business of killing people."
"We haven't discussed the price yet, but the escort is going to kick people out. Isn't it right?"
With that said, Lu Hanjiang took out a token from his arms and slapped it on the table, and said to the stunned Hong Wuye: "There should be no shortage of gold and silver treasures for the bodyguards at this time, but I wonder if you don't want this reputation?"
The young master happens to have some friendship with the county magistrate. If you take this job, someone will secretly help you suppress the thieves."
Although Mr. Hong Wu didn't speak, his eyes were already shaken and his breathing was a little faster.
