Chapter 134 Minion

The idea was good, but it failed to hide anything from the powerful mother clan. No matter where they were placed, on the counter, in a restaurant, in a warehouse, etc., they would be treated like a young master, which completely failed to achieve the purpose of training. , so they thought of a bad idea and sent the child to the North City Gate to be a doorman!

The condition is that all treatment is the same as that of other servants. If others eat chaff, he must eat chaff. If others are hungry, he must also be hungry. He must not be idle when others are working!

One month, I pay ten taels of silver in advance. If you do well, if this young master can change something, I will give you another ten taels of silver!

This is the strangest business that Lao Bai has heard of in his more than 40 years of life. It is also the simplest business. It is to insert a soldier into the city gate team. Such a trivial matter is not worth it to a low-class city gate official like him. Not worth mentioning!

No, early this morning, I found a well-fitting military uniform for this young master, not to mention armor, with soldiers embroidered on the chest and soldiers on the back. It’s just this kind of thing. It’s hot to wear in the summer and cold to wear in the winter...

Although the young master cannot be said to be particularly tall, his figure is very tall and straight, which is a sign that he has been well nourished since he was a child. Regarding this, Lao Bai, who is thin and somewhat hunchbacked, never says it, but in his heart he hates the world. Unjust, hating the injustice of God!

Usually you don't dare to show it. A little disrespect to these powerful families will cost you your job in a minute; but now you have such a legitimate opportunity to torment the rich family, and the more you toss, the more opportunities you will gain, so what can he do? Maybe let it go in vain?

The struggle began when the young master was led to the military station in the north of the city early in the morning. After putting on his clothes and boots, the other soldiers went to the city gate, but he, who came late, had to carry seven or eight poles on his back to the city gate. Door; In the halcyon years, people usually just didn’t carry a sword in their waist. Just to show off, many times they didn’t even have a knife at all. They just stuck a handle on the scabbard to fool people!

Although the knife weighing several kilograms is not heavy, it will still be very hard if it hangs for a day.

Therefore, no one would bring a spear to guard the city gate, and asking this young master to carry it was just torturing him!

Although the military station was not far from the city gate, it was still hundreds of feet away, and seven or eight long spears bundled together weighed dozens of kilograms. Even Lao Bai himself had to take a few breaths while carrying it under the sun on this hot day, but this The young master actually,

Never stopped!

Lao Bai couldn't help but admire that these people who had been eating beef and mutton since childhood were indeed different from those who had eaten bran-thick vegetables.

The young master's miserable days at Beichengmen began from then on. It cannot be said that the hard work was all his. Lao Bai also knew that he could not manipulate the young master badly, but basically he had to do what others did, without any preferential treatment. It's simple. Although the food is full, there is basically no meat. From the time the city gate opens at the end of the morning to the beginning of the Xu period, I have to stand for six full hours. Even if I do nothing, it is really too much for the average body.

The duty is also very simple, that is, to check the passers-by, especially strangers, to check the road signs, documents, origins and destinations, and whether they are criminals wanted by the government. When the caravan passes by, they also check whether they are carrying prohibited items and whether they are consistent with the documents. The goods written above are consistent, etc...

Of course, you have to control the scale yourself. How much money you can make depends on your own ability. If you have the ability to find something that someone has no idea about, you will be honored. If you can't find it, you can only let it go.

When doing this, you have to be an experienced person. The young master usually watches from the side. He doesn't like to talk, and his face is covered tightly with white cloth. This is very common in Pucheng, where the wind and sand are strong, and many people are like this.

Dress up, otherwise your nostrils will be clogged at the end of the day!

Lao Bai understood his thoughts even more. A respectable young master from Pucheng was guarding the city gate here. If those dandies saw this, wouldn't they laugh at him to death? So he had to cover it up!

The more they get along with each other, the more Lao Bai feels that this young master is not as unbearable as his family said. He is hard-working, taciturn, and can't kick a lot of shit. Most of the time, he just sticks up his spear and stares at the passing guests in a daze.



If all his soldiers were like him, Lao Bai felt that he would be much less worried. After a few days, he gave up the idea of ​​torturing him. Instead, he wanted to know which young master this was?

From the first moment they met, the young master had covered his face, and it seemed that he had never taken it off, which made him worry-free. There were also some bad guys among the soldiers, but the young master was very strong and never fought for his share of the benefits, so he gradually

I started to accept him!

Such days passed quickly, and boring errands seemed to torture people to death. Seven or eight boring people were hiding in the city gate, criticizing everyone who passed by. This person is a profiteer, and that person is a profiteer.

Shamin, this woman has a bad mouth, and that little daughter-in-law has very white skin, just to pass the boring time. This is a boring life, and someone has to do it.

The young master was always silent at this time, and his silence made people think that he was mute. Lao Bai suspected that he was a non-lineage young master who was not popular and marginalized in the family, right? Why was he so wilted?

A month later, it was almost Xu time. It was a beautiful dusk. The sunset and the desert were a perfect match. They set off each other and had a soul-trembling beauty. The young master liked to see this the most, although his companions had long been against it.

This is a common practice,

Two sand camels trotted over in a leisurely manner, and one person sat on top of the sand camels, with a thick cloth covering his head and face. This is not new, almost all people who come from the Gobi Desert in the north are dressed like this!

The time is quite right!

At the gate of the city, this man did not get off the sand camel, but just pointed his way up. Generally, people who do this are distinguished people, ordinary people would not dare to do this. The more this happens, the more careful the soldiers guarding the city will be.

, don’t dare to make mistakes!

There is no problem with the road guide. It comes from the prefectures and counties on the other side of the Gobi, a large place, and it is also stamped with the Zhaofu seal. Most people cannot reach this level.

Looking at the clothes and clothes, they are full of nobility and cannot be afforded by ordinary people. So Lao Bai handed over Lu Yin with both hands very respectfully, and waved his hands to let him go. As for closer inspection, there was no such thing. Let the noble man open his bag and show his face.

It's blasphemy!

But the young master, who had not spoken for a month, muttered a dull sentence behind him,

"The entrance fee is twenty taels of silver!"

Lao Bai and the other soldiers were surprised. Not only was the young master speaking for the first time, but the price was very high. Generally, only when a large camel caravan passed through the city would they offer one tael of silver to avoid trouble. For a single merchant,

, even if there is something wrong, just give a few dozen coins. If you charge too much, it will be reported to the government office, which will be troublesome for the soldiers guarding the city.

There is only one reason why I dare to ask for two taels of silver. This guest has something wrong with him!
