Pushing open the gate to the courtyard, many hawkers had already set up their stalls on the street. There were those who sold vegetables, those who sold soy milk and youtiao, those who sold newspapers, and those who pulled carts. These people in small businesses are often among the earliest in the city, as they have been since time immemorial.

However, the first to enter Zhou Jian's and Wang Li's eyes was a wretched middle-aged man. He wore a round hat and a brown short shirt.

"Good morning, big brothers!"

Seeing Zhou Jian and Wang Li coming out of the courtyard, the man quickly went forward with a flattering smile.

"Who are you? Do we brothers know you?" Zhou Jian frowned and asked. He must be like Wang Li who could not think of anything. Looking at the man's face, Zhou Jian could tell that he was a hooligan who had no ambition.

"Yeah, do we know you?" Wang Li also put on a straight face, trying his best to act like he was a gangster.

Since yesterday, the two brothers were no longer the laborers on the dock. Now, they were the big brothers of the sword club. Although they didn't have any subordinates, it didn't stop them from showing off.

"Look at what you two big brothers are saying. You don't know me now, but you'll know me soon. " The smile on the man's face didn't change at all, it even became a bit more radiant.

Although Zhou Jian and Wang Li were much younger than him, the man still called them big brother intimately, as if the two of them were really his big brothers.

"Let me introduce myself to the two big brothers, I am Niu Sanguang. "There is no one here who does not know about me, Niu Sanguang." The man's voice was much louder, and his flattering face had a look of satisfaction.

"I have never heard of you before." Wang Li looked at the man with disdain.

The man's expression turned somewhat awkward. He didn't know what to say next. A smart and tactful person will often choke to the point of not saying a word when he meets a simple-minded person. But this middle-aged man called Niu Sanguang was obviously a smart and tactful person, while Wang Li was undoubtedly a simple-minded person.

"Niu Sanguang, is it? Tell me. What are you looking for us brothers for? " Zhou Jian looked at him and asked.

Although Zhou Jian's tone was not very good, it eased the man's awkwardness.

"Yes yes yes, I am Niu Sanguang. "My two brothers, today I have come to pay my respects to the lord who wields the sword."

"Is our big brother someone you can meet whenever you want to?" Wang Li tried his best to keep a straight face as he shouted.

Zhou Jian didn't speak, he only sized up Niu Sanguang.

Niu Sanguang was no stranger to this kind of situation. He took a few steps forward and held Zhou Jian's hand, "A small gift, no respect, no respect."

Initially, Zhou Jian had subconsciously wanted to push Niu Sanguang away, but when he felt the metal in his hand, Zhou Jian looked at him meaningfully and then put his hand into his pocket without batting an eyelid.

"You want to see our big brother, right? Wait here, we'll bring you in after we buy breakfast. " Zhou Jian said to Niu Sanguang as his tone became much more gentle.

Looking at the distant figures of Zhou Jian and Wang Li, Niu Sanguang was overjoyed, "I finally have a way!"

He had visited Long Qi a few times, but he couldn't even meet Long Qi face to face, so he gave up. Until he saw Li Ren yesterday, his heart had once again become restless. No one had ever thought this way before.

There were some people who knew their own abilities, so they often placed their hopes of rising to prominence on those who were capable. Niu Sanguang was such a person.

Thinking back to the story that the storyteller told him, he felt his blood boil.
