In the most famous Yingchun Building in Qingpeng Township, Lin Xiao was sitting by the window. In front of him, on a brown square wooden table that looked brand new, was a large casserole filled with steaming stew.
It is mainly stewed with pheasant, supplemented by wild ginseng, red wolfberry and other medicinal materials. It can be eaten by ordinary people to strengthen the body, and it can also be eaten by warriors to replenish their own consumption and benefit their cultivation.
For Lin Xiao, this is not only a supplement to himself, but also a delicacy.
In the past, when I was still in Qingtong Township, I was just a gang member, running around for a living every day, and saving everything I ate. But it is different now. Maybe I can’t be called that rich, but money is no longer
What's the limit?
Especially this time, as his status has been promoted to the position of protector, he can receive two hundred taels of silver every month. In addition, he has made great contributions. In addition to receiving a tribute of 50,000 taels, he also received a reward of 10,000 taels of silver. The province
Save money, but spend what should be spent.
Pour the thick soup from the large casserole onto the plump white rice. The strong aroma tantalizes the gluttons, and Lin Xiao feels a gurgling sound in his stomach, like thunder.
First, he took a mouthful of plump white rice topped with thick soup. The moment he entered the mouth, Lin Xiao felt a slight sense of satisfaction in his heart. Then he picked up a piece of chicken nugget covered in thick golden soup and stuffed it into his mouth.
, the stewed meat was so tender that it melted in your mouth, which further enhanced the sense of satisfaction that arose in Lin Xiao's heart.
Sometimes, happiness is so simple, it may be a bite of food, it may be a glass of water, it may be seeing the clouds flowing in the sky, or it may be having a good sleep.
Two figures walked into the Yingchun Building, one was slightly fat and the other was lean. They were both in their forties. The slightly fat man glanced at them and finally landed on the window seat. Zhengfengjuananyun was eating a big meal.
Lin Xiao had a faint smile on his lips and strode over. The lean man with a knife on his back followed him with cold eyes.
Feeling someone standing in front of the table, Lin Xiao looked up.
"What's the matter?" Lin Xiao was the first to ask.
"You are Lin Wuming, right?" The fat middle-aged man said with a smile, while the lean man pulled up a chair and sat down, staring at Lin Xiao coldly.
"No." Lin Xiao replied very naturally. The fat man and the lean man were startled and looked at each other with a bit of doubt in each other's eyes.
no?
"Lin Wuming, don't you even dare to admit your own name?" The lean man spoke, his voice cold and sharp.
Lin Xiao didn't pay attention, and just kept eating and eating meat, looking very unhappy. As for the two people, there were no obvious signs on their bodies to prove their identities, and Lin Xiao didn't bother to think about it at the moment.
"Lin Wuming, a young genius, shouldn't he even dare to admit his own name?" The fat man said with a smile again, and also used the provocation method.
"You're looking for Lin Wu Ming to do this?" Lin Xiao responded casually.
"Of course there is something good going on." The fat man smiled.
"Are you giving me money?" Lin Xiao's eyes suddenly lit up.
"Once you have status, you need money, money, and people." The fat man was startled at first, and then smiled.
"Unless you help me pay the bill, I don't believe it." Lin Xiao said, just as he was full and about to enter the checkout process.
The fat man's face was suffocated. He obviously didn't expect that he was facing such a player. He was thinking outside the box and couldn't keep up with the rhythm.
"No problem. If you can meet young talents like Brother Wu Ming, I can treat you ten times without saying a word." The fat man suddenly smiled, but his heart was silently exhaling: If you don't know what's interesting, then this one
The only meal I had was a decapitation meal.
"Haha." Lin Xiao smirked twice, believing you are a big-headed ghost.
This meal cost a full twenty taels of silver, which was not a small amount. Of course, for the current Lin Xiao, it was completely affordable, but he had to save what he could and manage his family well.
"Thank you." After saying that, Lin Xiao walked out of Yingchun Building.
The fat man and the lean man looked at each other in disbelief. Immediately, the lean man became more and more cold and stern, and almost drew his sword directly.
"Dragon Protector Zhou, don't be anxious." The fat man whispered and hurriedly caught up with him.
…
"You are from the Black Earth Gang, right?" Lin Xiao said casually as he looked at the two people chasing after him. Although they did not have the Black Earth Gang's logo on their bodies, it could still be inferred.
Who would come here specifically to find me, and be so sure of his identity, and even say something good? After thinking about it, I can't think of anyone else, except the Black Earth Gang.
The people of the Black Earth Gang knew that they were coming to Qingpeng Township. This was actually not a particularly secretive matter. They did not deliberately hide their whereabouts. They could find out through careful investigation. So, what was their purpose?
Doesn't it look like you want to kill yourself?
Recruiting!
Win over!
That's all.
Lin Xiao ducked into a small alley, and the slightly fat man and the lean man turned into the small alley and quickly caught up with Lin Xiao.
"Brother Wu Ming, please stop first." The fat man chased after him and said with a smile.
"What are the backgrounds of these two people?" Lin Xiao asked back. Although he had some guesses in his heart, it was just a rough idea. If it were other senior members of the Baiyun Gang, it would be easy to recognize these two people, mainly because Lin Xiao came here.
The time I spent in the main gang was too short, and I didn’t have a precise enough understanding of the important figures in the rival gang.
"My surname is Cai, and I am the leader of the Black Tu Gang's Internal Affairs Hall. This is our Black Tu Gang's Protector Zhou." The fat man said with a smile, not intending to hide his identity: "Brother Wu Ming, why don't we find a place
Let’s talk.”
"It's quite quiet here." Lin Xiao smiled and said, "Tell me, what kind of price does your Black Earth Gang plan to offer to win me over."
"Brother Wu Ming is indeed a smart man. It saves trouble to talk to smart people." Hall Master Cai said with a smile on his face and his little eyes sparkling: "Your Baiyun Gang was attacked by a powerful enemy and suffered heavy losses. I believe in Brother Wu Ming's heart
It is very clear that our Black Earth Gang has never been attacked. We were originally close friends with the Baiyun Gang, but now, the Baiyun Gang is no match for our Black Earth Gang."
Lin Xiao remained calm and continued to listen.
"The Wuming Brotherhood came to Qingpeng Township, presumably to help the branch here and resist the attacks of our Black Earth Gang, right?" Hall Master Cai continued to say with a smile, but his bright little eyes kept staring at Lin Xiao,
Carefully pay attention to all the changes in Lin Xiao's expression, but Lin Xiao's expression is as calm as ever, which makes Hall Master Cai frown secretly, but he still continues to speak: "But all Ma Guangyuan's calculations are under the control of our gang leader, so we simply
We don’t plan to attack Qingpeng Township and Sheung Shui Township.”
"Then we are going to attack Qingtong Township." Lin Xiao suddenly realized, but he was not in a hurry. Wang Tianhua's grandson wanted to kill him at first. I, Lin Wuming, am a very particular person. I can't rush back to save my enemy in a hurry.
Isn't it worse than licking a dog?
What's more, Wang Tianhua himself is a beginner in martial arts training, and there is Wang Ran, who has perfected internal training. He is much more powerful than when He Mingshan was around. He should not be killed so easily. Even if he is really killed, it will be
He himself is unlucky.
Our ideological level is so high.
Hall Master Cai thought that the other party's expression would change drastically and he would leave in a panic, but unexpectedly, the other party still looked calm and calm. He couldn't see clearly and couldn't help but secretly have a headache. This is what a teenager should have.
Are you calm?
It was difficult to deal with. Immediately, Hall Master Cai cheered up, his little eyes narrowed even more, his sharp light became more condensed, and he felt as if he wanted to see through everything.
"The Baiyun Gang is no longer the opponent of our Black Earth Gang. Once the opportunity is right, our Black Earth Gang will immediately attack and defeat the Baiyun Gang. By then, the eastern district of Lin'an County will be under the control of our Black Earth Gang, and Qingpeng Township, Shangshui Township and Qingtong Township will naturally also
Under the control of our Black Earth Gang, Brother Wu Ming, you are young, but your talent is extraordinary and you are an outstanding figure among men. You really should not perish along with the Baiyun Gang."
"Continue." Lin Xiao suddenly smiled softly.
"What continue?" Hall Master Cai was slightly startled.
"Praise me." Lin Xiao smiled.
Hall Master Cai suddenly felt very tired. After what he said, he meant to win over Lin Xiao. At the same time, he was testing Lin Xiao to see if the Baiyun Gang had really suffered heavy losses, but nothing came out.
Protector Zhou's stern face turned even darker, and he almost drew his sword and split open Lin Xiao's forehead to see what the brain inside looked like.
"Haha, brother Wu Ming, our gang leader appreciates talents the most. He specially asked me and Protector Zhou to come here to find you and invite you to join our Black Earth Gang and conspire for great things." Hall Master Cai suppressed the complaints in his heart and was full of laughter.
He smiled eagerly and said: "In the future, our black soil gang will not only be able to monopolize the Eastern District, but even control the entire Lin'an County."
"I secretly joined your Black Earth Gang, and then continued to lurk within the Baiyun Gang, working together internally and externally to eliminate the Baiyun Gang." Lin Xiao said with a smile.
Hall Master Cai and Protector Zhou were startled for a moment, and then their breathing became a little quickened. If this were the case, the Baiyun Gang would be finished even faster.
"I wonder if there are any secret agents from the Black Earth Gang in the Baiyun Gang?" Lin Xiao asked.
"Since it's a secret move, of course it can't be done openly." Hall Master Cai chuckled.
"The Black Earth Gang wants to win me over, what price will they offer?" Lin Xiao changed the subject, wanting to know how much he was worth.
"What do you mean by Brother Wu Ming?" Hall Master Cai did not answer immediately, but asked rhetorically, as if placing the ball at Lin Xiao's feet and letting Lin Xiao take the initiative to kick it out.
"I don't have any ambitions, and I don't have any bold ideas." Lin Xiao said unhurriedly: "I just want to sit in the position of the gang leader."
When Hall Master Cai and Protector Zhou heard the first half of Lin Xiao's sentence, they secretly laughed. Since they had no ambitions or bold ideas, it would be easy to handle. Their expressions changed drastically when they heard the second half of the sentence.
Take a seat as gang leader!
Then don't you want to be a gang leader? This doesn't mean you have any ambitions, and you don't have any bold ideas. When you are a gang leader, how can I, the Black Earth Gang, ask you to be the gang leader? Isn't this idea bold enough?
At this moment, Hall Master Cai wanted to directly press Lin Xiao's forehead and ask sternly, if this idea is not bold enough, then what idea is bold enough?
