However, although some people think it is inappropriate, who can have trouble with money? Everyone follows the rules and comes forward to collect the money.???
After distributing the money to the guys, Xiao Zhuo said again: "If you go home tomorrow, it's best to go with a few people when you go back with the money, otherwise it's easy to get into trouble, and you must not reveal your wealth." He laughed at himself again:
"Everyone has been working as a waiter for many years, so I don't need to remind you."
Then he continued: "Then, everyone is free to eat and drink. But those who have to rush home tomorrow to celebrate the New Year should not drink too much. It will not be good if it delays the trip."
Xiao Zhuo said a few more words, which heated up the atmosphere in the venue, and then he went around looking for people to drink with a bowl in hand. He was originally from a gangster background, and it was easy to get along with people. After a few bowls of wine, even the people he had just mixed
The guys who came here not long ago all became brothers like him.
Xiao Zhuo drinks a lot. Although he is not inebriated after a thousand drinks, he is still very sober after more than ten bowls of wine. He looked around and saw that no one was present. He asked the person in charge to maintain order, and then went to the backyard to find the man.
people.
Xiao Zhuo came to a remote small house, pushed the door open, and saw the person he was looking for in the house.
Xiao Zhuo smiled and said: "Why don't you go to the front yard to drink with everyone, but why do you want to stay here alone? I didn't say you would be on duty today, right? And if you are on duty, you are violating the rules. People on duty are not allowed to drink.
." This man also lit a small lamp, so Xiao Zhuo could see clearly.
The man said calmly: "I'm not used to being with others. I like to drink alone."
Xiao Zhuo walked over, sat down next to him and said, "I think you are also a person with stories. But I want to know what your name is? Xinlin didn't say your name when he put you here with me.
"
This man is the half-blind man Duan He mentioned before (Chapter 236). Because one eye is blind, he is called half-blind and also called the one-eyed wolf. Xiao Zhuo feels that he can be trusted, and
They saw that he was good at martial arts, so they transferred him to the Shanghai Shipping Department as a guard despite the objections of others.
In the past few months, he has made several moves, showing that he is really good at martial arts, so some people started to get close to him, but he didn't say anything to others and just did his own work. Gradually, everyone stopped paying attention to him.
.But Xiao Zhuo is still very interested in him.
The man said calmly: "I have no name or surname, just call me one-eyed wolf." His tone was that of someone who would reject him thousands of miles away.
But Xiao Zhuo did not give up, and continued: "Well, let's call you One-Eyed Wolf. Who did you practice this Kung Fu with? It's very good, even I can't compare to you."
"You are actually a swordsman, right? The calluses on your hands look like you used weapons. It's just that your calluses are different from mine, and they are also different from the calluses used to practice swordsmanship, spear training, etc., which makes me puzzled.
It’s not easy to use weapons to fight in Shanghai Shipping Department, so I still can’t see it.”
"You don't speak Chinese very fluently, are you a pure Han Chinese? Or maybe you went to the feudal country many years ago and grew up there."
"Forgive me for asking, why are you blind in one eye?"
…
Xiao Zhuo said a lot more, but the one-eyed wolf basically didn't answer. At most, when Xiao Zhuo raised his bowl to drink, he raised his bowl to drink with him.
Xiao Zhuo was not discouraged. He thought he had learned martial arts when he was a teenager and started to travel in the world. In the past twenty years now, he has moved from the world to the sea, and from the sea to the gentry class. He also interacted with the local people in his hometown.
The official admitted that he had seen all kinds of people, and the one-eyed wolf was not the most difficult person he had ever seen!
At least the one-eyed wolf is still willing to drink with him, so there is still a chance to pry his mouth open.
Of course, Xiao Zhuo will not accept everyone. He will not bother to care about those who are incompetent. He feels that the one-eyed wolf is highly skilled in martial arts. Since ancient times, the poor were poor in culture and rich in martial arts. People who practice martial arts are those whose families are relatively wealthy, or who have relied on them for generations.
People who make a living through martial arts, and One-Eyed Wolf's martial arts are so strong, he must be from an unusual background. If he was in a feudal country, he might be a big shot.
However, there is probably nothing to be gained tonight. It will not take a few days to pry open such a person's mouth. Xiao Zhuo drank a few more bowls of wine with the one-eyed wolf, said a few words, and then took out something from his pocket.
Twelve ounces of gold said: "One-eyed Wolf, you have been with us for a long time, and you have made a lot of contributions and put in a lot of effort. This is your New Year reward, take it."
The one-eyed wolf said: "I know that each of the guys in front of me only has ten taels of silver, combined with two taels of gold. But you gave me ten taels of gold, which is more than the little stewards. The other guards only have five taels each."
Gold, why did you give me so much money?"
"I don't contribute more than others. If you want to pry my mouth open with these few taels of gold, it's impossible. And if you want to pry my mouth open, the extra money shouldn't be used with public money.
, but with your own money.”
"Even if it's your own property, it's best to keep public and private property separate. What's more, it's not just your family's property, it also belongs to other people."
The one-eyed wolf said so much in one breath, and then drank a bowl of wine. It seemed that his throat felt dry after talking too much.
Xiao Zhuo smiled and said: "I have learned the lesson. Then according to the rules, I will give you five taels of gold from the father-in-law's money, and then use my own money to give you the other five taels."
Then he said: "You must have had a big ship at sea before, otherwise, why do you talk so much about public and private matters, and are you so clear about things?"
The one-eyed wolf didn't answer, and then put the twelve taels of gold he handed over into his pocket.
Xiao Zhuo said: "Hey, how could you really take all the money? According to the rules, you should get five taels of gold, right? How come you put the other five taels into your own pocket?"
The one-eyed wolf said: "The other five taels of gold were given to me voluntarily by you. You didn't have to ask me to do anything, and I didn't promise to do anything. So since I can get the five taels of gold without doing anything, why not?"
In fact, Xiao Zhuo didn't really care about the five taels of gold. What he said just now was just to induce the one-eyed wolf to talk more. After hearing what the one-eyed wolf said, he said: "What you said is right, and it's also right not to do anything after taking the money."
He is so confident and confident, and has the charm of a scholar."
The one-eyed wolf didn't answer and just drank.
Xiao Zhuo, because he was the biggest manager here after all, couldn't just stay with the one-eyed wolf tonight. After saying a few words, he left and went to the front hall. But he thought silently in his heart: 'We must pry it open.
The mouth of the one-eyed wolf knows what he did before.'
