C646 Valuable Team
He took a lot of business from those footmen. He wanted to teach him a lesson. They didn't expect that after punching and kicking this guy, they would think that he would be taught a lesson for a few days no matter what. In the end, it was as if this guy had copper tendons and iron bones, but at that time, his body was covered in bruises. After a day or two, there was not even a trace left. He was completely fine.
Moreover, when he was hit, he only curled up into a ball to protect his vitals, and did not retaliate. After such a long time, those footmen could only let him go. Sometimes, if he needed help, he would call him, and he would immediately run over. No matter what.
Just like that, he stayed by the river alone. In the blink of an eye, half a year had passed. Although he had been bullied and toyed with many times in the past, he was still alive and well.
"My name is fish boy!" The super big guy looked like he could crush a few young men into meat paste with just five fingers, but he only lowered his head and muttered in a low voice.
"Alright, alright, it's more important to do the right thing. Is there anyone else who wants to join my valuable team? Opportunities don't wait for people! If you don't have the ability, you don't need to come out and cause trouble. If you delay my money making, then you'll have something good to see."
This Xue Zhiqian didn't want to offend those young men. Looking at their arrogant manner, looking at the angry and silent expressions of those men beside him, he knew that they were either from some local gang. They were either the second generation of the government officials. There was no need for him to offend them. However, he still had to say a few words. He could not let others look down on him for no reason.
After the appearance of those young men, the scene was obviously much quieter than before. There were even some timid ones who had already run away with oil on their feet. Of course, most of them were reluctant to part with the liveliness under their eyes. They were still surrounding and watching, but some of them could not see. Then they moved back a little bit, wanting to change from the audience in the first row to the second. However, the people behind them didn't want to stand at the front, so they also backed off. In the blink of an eye, the circle of the audience expanded by a large circle. As for the few youths, because they retreated, they stood out from the crowd. However, it seemed like they were already used to this kind of situation. They didn't feel that there was anything wrong with it at all. Instead, they were proud of it.
When the youth in front saw that no one was willing to come out to register again, he seemed a little bored. He looked around and suddenly noticed Zhang Jingxuan and the others in the crowd. Zhang Jingxuan and the others were not outstanding among the crowd, but the crowd retreated like a receding tide. This made Zhang Jingxuan and the others stand out like rocks on the beach. Zhang Jingxuan and the others found it very interesting, so they naturally did not want to retreat into the distance like the others who were afraid of trouble. When the young man in the lead saw that these people were not afraid of him, he seemed to feel a little ashamed. When he saw that one of the five people was even thinner than him and his brothers, he immediately became interested.
"Hey hey! The two of you, right, it's the two of you. The skinny guy and the servant beside the skinny guy. The two of you go up and count. Once you have four people, hurry up and start. Otherwise, how long do you want me to wait!?"
Zhen Tieqie and Shea Tongren saw that the other party had pointed their fingers at them, so they looked at Zhang Jingxuan at the same time. That young man actually had some insight. He saw Zhang Jingxuan, Muyan Wenying, Murong Lingyun and a few others. The man had an imposing appearance, and the woman had a beautiful face. He didn't look like someone to be trifled with. He would start with their servants first. If they were not to be trifled with, he might not be able to afford to offend them. There was still room for negotiation. A person who was qualified to be called a silkpants had to have the ability to be a silkpants.
Zhang Jingxuan smiled. "Neither of my partners are qualified. Can we join the 'Valuable Battle Team'?"
"If I say we can, then we can. If we don't have enough people, how can we let others see us as monkeys?"
It seemed like Xue Zhiqian's heart was really big enough. This youth was like a skinny monkey, but his words were not pleasant to the ears. And Xue Zhiqian acted as if he didn't hear it. He turned around and cupped his hands towards Zhang Jingxuan and the others, then he said, "Young master, with just one look, you can tell that he is a dragon among men, and his companions are also extraordinary figures. It is my great fortune to have two of you join my 'Valuable Battle Team'."
Xue Zhiqian was a man who was used to the Jianghu, and his eyes were full of sand. He didn't want to offend that young man, but after looking at Zhang Jingxuan and the others... He knew that these people were people he couldn't afford to offend. Especially the man in the middle who was wearing the Han Prince uniform, he looked like a dragon amongst men. Xue Zhiqian didn't want to appear too rude, so he greeted them. After that, he turned to Zhen Tieqie and Shea Tongren. This was called breaking through in a roundabout way, focusing on attacking. Besides, there were no weak soldiers under a strong general. It seemed like these two people were wearing the uniform of servants. They also had their own abilities.
Zhen Tieqie and Shea Tongren felt that they were being valued by others, and their impression of this man called Xue Zhiqian instantly increased.
"Alright! Since that's the case, we'll play with you two."
Zhen Tieqie had thought that calling himself "old man" would be better than others since yesterday. Now, this title had finally come in handy in front of others. He didn't hesitate to add more weight to Shea Tongren's name.
"Don't talk nonsense. If you continue to talk nonsense, the sun will set." The young man shouted impatiently.
However, the crowd still felt that this was the first time this guy had said something that could win people's hearts.
"I have something to say first. All of you, one by one, cannot secretly cheat. If you hurt my elephant, none of you can afford to pay. In a few days' time, my elephant will go to the palace to perform for the old emperor of Qing."
The man from Tianzhu was indeed a wily old fox. With just one sentence, just like that, Zhen Tieqie and the others' thoughts were blocked. Zhen Tieqie had planned to give the elephant a knee joint without anyone knowing. At that time, the elephant wouldn't be able to stand stably. Could it be that the few of them still couldn't pull the limp elephant? However, after hearing what the Tianzhu had said, once the elephant was injured... If he was blamed by the Emperor, he was afraid that he would kill the elephant. A transaction that would cost one's life was not something that could be done.
"How much do you plan to bet?" This was what the people of Tianzhu cared about the most.
"Ten taels of silver per person. I'll bet on this. If you win, I'll give each of you two thousand taels of silver. If you lose, just write an IOU and slowly pay me back. The profit is three cents!" Xue Zhiqian said passionately with a solemn expression. There was a strong wind blowing and a cold wind blowing. Zhen Tieqie and the others were unknowingly influenced, and it seemed like they were not good at mathematics. They felt that this captain was born to be a leader. They had completely forgotten that he seemed to be completely disregarding other people's generosity.
The four mermaids stood together. One end of the rope was as thick as an arm, and it wrapped around the elephant's nose. The other end was in the hands of the four of them.
