Chapter 209 Xiaowu, taking advantage of a favor and repaying it?
Less than ten minutes after leaving the Zhao Family Martial Arts Hall, Huang An suddenly stopped.
He suddenly turned around and asked Zhang Yi curiously:
"Old Zhang, do you have a brother with nimble legs and feet? I need the cultivation level of the Bronze Skin Realm!"
The relationship between Huang An and the fifteen Bronze Skin Realm warriors was slightly awkward.
Each one calls his own.
Because of their age and martial arts skills, Huang An called them brother.
Of course, Huang An called them this because he wanted to have a good relationship with these officers so that he could better direct them to do things.
Similarly, out of flattery to Huang An, Zhao Yan, and even their immediate superiors, they also called Huang An Ge.
Or, it may be because of Huang An's actions in Xialin Village and his attitude towards soldiers such as Zhang Rang, which made them admire and respect him.
For the title, the two parties argued no less than five times.
In the end, we simply let it go and let everyone do what they want.
At this moment, Zhang Yi heard Huang An ask him about his brothers who had flexible legs and feet and had a cultivation level in the Bronze Skin realm.
His eyes blinked.
Zhang Yi was stunned for a moment after hearing this, and then thought about it carefully.
"Ahem!"
He coughed suddenly, as if to hide his embarrassment, and finally managed a smile:
"Brother Huang, my legs and feet are very flexible."
After Zhang Yi finished speaking, he grinned, but it was easy to see on his face that he was a little shy.
This man had a certain degree of bravery and restraint in his dullness, which made Huang An look at him with admiration.
I didn't expect that the rough and arrogant man in front of me had such a lovely temperament.
Chen Yu, who was on the side and had a good relationship with Zhang Yi, knew that he was not lying. He looked at Huang An and Zhang Yi and laughed.
Huang An laughed. He shook his head, and suddenly his expression became serious.
"really!"
"really!"
Zhang Yi nodded with firm eyes.
From Huang An, he saw a new possibility for the future, so he mustered up the courage to recommend himself.
Now it seems that the choice I just made was the right one.
Judging from Huang An's reaction, he may get a certain task.
And this was his first step in "jumping jobs" to work for Huang An.
Before joining the Qianhu Office under the Firearms Department, he also spent many years in the border army.
Zhang Yi deeply realized that with his Bronze Skin Realm cultivation, it was basically impossible to go further.
To serve as an official in the imperial court or in Youzhou, martial arts cultivation is only a stepping stone, but relationships and background are the most important.
Since there is no future in the imperial court, why not defect to Huang An?
At this moment, Huang An didn't know that the dull man in front of him already had the idea of running towards him.
He focused his attention on Chen Yu who was standing aside, and noticed that Chen Yu was also nodding his head.
Huang An knew that what Zhang Yi said was not a lie.
With a blink of an eye, Huang An made a decision directly.
"Okay, then when we get to the City Lord's Mansion, the two of us will talk about something. I will arrange a task for you!"
Huang An's eyes were thoughtful and pointed.
Afterwards, he did not instruct Zhang Yi on his next actions. Instead, he turned around and looked at his subordinates Liu Long and Song Yang who were following him.
Turning his attention to Liu Long, who was cautious and steady, Huang An gave instructions again.
"You are from Dahuaishu Village, but you grew up in the city, so you must be relatively familiar with this place."
Huang An explained while watching Liu Long's reaction.
Seeing him nod, he knew he was right.
If that's the case, then it's him.
"Go and rent a carriage, oxcart or the like nearby, and wait for us here! We'll be back in a moment!"
While Huang An was speaking, he took out a money bag from his sleeve, pointed to a relatively empty alley not far away, and ordered Liu Long.
"This is the money you need to rent a carriage. It should be enough."
Liu Long weighed the money bag in his hand and knew that there might be five taels of silver in it.
This money is used to rent carriages and the like, which is too much.
I had the intention to withdraw part of it, but after thinking about it, I stuffed it directly into my sleeve.
Since the eldest brother believed in him, he should be more careful, keep good accounts, and finally return the remaining money to the eldest brother, which would be worthy of his trust.
Today, Liu Long does not realize that the way he thinks now is completely different from the way he thought half a year ago, or even two months ago.
In the past, he would try his best to save this money, but now, he wants to save some money and finally return it to Huang An.
"Then big brother, I'll be waiting for you here."
Although Liu Long was surprised by Huang An's order, he still agreed directly.
Like Zhang Yi, he had the same confused look on his face, not understanding what Huang An was going to do.
But this did not affect their execution of Huang An's orders at all.
"Okay, let's go!"
Huang An patted Liu Long on the shoulder, encouraged him, then turned around and left.
Zhang Yi and the other two people who were behind him looked at each other in confusion, wondering what the eldest brother Huang meant by his actions just now.
The three of them nodded towards Liu Long, then turned around and quickly followed Huang An's footsteps, heading straight towards the City Lord's Mansion.
The closer you get to the City Lord's Mansion, the more people you meet, and the excited gossip that comes from time to time makes Huang An smile.
"Have you heard? Lord City Lord, take out two taels of silver and ask someone to complain and redress their grievances. The Yamen of the City Lord's Mansion is very lively now."
"Really? You're not lying to us, are you?"
"It's absolutely true. My second aunt's sister-in-law's son had his arm broken. Just now my third aunt said that he has received two taels of silver!"
"..."
The plan worked.
The tense situation he has created will directly put pressure on families like the Li family.
He didn't believe it. Now the leaders of these aristocratic families in Feng'an City could still sit firmly on Diaoyutai?
Their hearts will definitely be confused, and as long as their minds are confused, they can easily find flaws.
Silver is indeed the best thing to break the situation. Huang An was secretly excited as he walked on the road.
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! When passing by the market, Huang An bought some household items such as eggs, duck eggs and fresh meat, and went to check on Xiao Wu.
Although when he sent Liuzi away in the morning, he had already made an excuse and ordered him to send a message to Xiaowu and explain to Xiaowu that he had returned.
Of course, Xiaowu most likely already knew the news that he had returned with Senior Sister Zhao.
However, he knew that Huang An had to send someone to inform him.
Xiao Wu has been a great favor to himself. No matter what the purpose is, since he has free time at this time, he must go there in person.
Letting Zhang Yi and the others wait while eating meat at the mutton restaurant next door, Huang An walked into the medicine shop carrying the wrapped gifts alone.
What makes Huang An happy is that Xiao Wu and his wife, who is brother Yu's niece, are both at the drug store.
The business of the drug store was good or bad. After Xiao Wu quickly met the customers' needs, he closed the door of the drug store directly.
He was very happy that Brother Huang came to see him.
Huang An was equally happy because Xiaowu's wife was pregnant.
When I met Xiaowu last year, his childish face still lingered in my mind. Now, in less than a year, he is already ready to be a father.
Huang An and Xiao Wu and his wife talked for about half an hour.
Before leaving, he once again told Xiao Wu to come to the martial arts studio tomorrow evening to do him a favor.
Xiaowu didn't ask anything and just agreed.
His mother-in-law, Ding, did not stop him either.
Finally, the couple personally sent Huang An out.
"You guys go back!"
After another round of courtesy, Huang An finally sent the overly enthusiastic Xiaowu couple back.
Looking at the backs of the couple, Huang An was filled with emotions.
In the Ming Dynasty, in Youzhou, and in Feng'an City, there were many evil people and fools.
But there are still such innocent people as Xiaowu and his wife.
He, Huang An, has lived for more than twenty years in his hometown on Earth, and there are only a handful of people he can be close to.
In just over half a year, Huang An had already regarded Xiao Wu as a true friend.
"Mean of kindness, rice of hatred. Xiaowu once sacrificed his little arm to save me, but he never asked me to repay the kindness. He never mentioned it, and Ding never mentioned it. The two of them did not
No matter how much money they asked me to give them, they didn't ask me for an official position..."
Huang An took a deep look at the Zhao's pharmacy where the couple were, and then shouted to Zhang Yi and others who had seen him coming out not far away:
"Follow me and go to the City Lord's Mansion to find someone!"
After finishing his words, he waved his big hand and led everyone away quickly.
The personalities of Xiao Wu and Ding made Huang An feel close to each other. The two of them could not make demands of him, but Huang An himself could not.
Repaying kindness is a character engraved in his bones.
As a couple, what they want is very simple. Huang An and Xiao Wu have known each other for some time, so they understand his philosophy of life fairly well.
In the words of his hometown, Xiao Wu is a salty person and has no big dreams.
A warm bed with a wife and children is what Xiaowu wants.
And this is what the people of Youzhou, and even the people of the world, want.
No matter what the character and moral character of the people are, this concept is common.
In this case, Huang An will respect his choice.
Based on this choice, we will provide you with the help you can.
Huang An disdained to encourage young people to grow, or force Xiao Wu to accept his good intentions, let him practice martial arts, become an official, or even move his family to Xia Lin Village or Youzhou City.
For Huang An, Xiao Wu is his friend, and his personal desires and thoughts are the most important.
The gate of the city lord's government office was really lively.
Although Huang An came to the City Lord's Mansion to find someone to help in the martial arts gym, he also made a special detour to the yamen gate where his senior sister was and took a brief look.
Still far away, he caught sight of Luo Feiyao, who was half leaning on the treetops.
The first moment he saw Luo Feiyao, Huang An was stunned, and then stopped.
Zhang Yi and others naturally saw it too. Luo Feiyao had her back turned to them and her eyes were staring straight at the yamen door, as if she was watching a show.
Huang An also planned to meet Senior Sister Zhao and have a few words, but since Luo Feiyao was also there, it was omitted.
This woman is too curious and may cause bad things if she follows him around.
He waved his hand to the four people beside him and behind him, and ordered in a normal tone:
"let's go!"
A group of five people left quickly, staying away from the crowd, and entered the city lord's palace through another door.
Luo Feiyao focused almost all his attention on the exciting cases in the yamen, and his back was turned to Huang An and his group, so he didn't notice that Huang An had just arrived.
