The end of the military era

Zhou Xiaorong and Song Limin glanced at each other, and they couldn't help showing a hint of relief in their eyes. At least following such a person, even if they died in battle, it was worth it.

But Zhou Xiaorong pondered for a while, and reminded: "Major General, the garrison brigade and coastal defense fleet have already raised their salaries once.

Now the monthly salary of ordinary soldiers in the garrison brigade has reached 18 silver coins, and the monthly salary of ordinary soldiers in the coastal defense fleet is 22 silver coins, which has far exceeded that of other troops in Ganyang City.

If you increase the military salary..."

Before Zhou Xiaorong finished speaking, Zhou Rui interrupted, "18 silver coins are not enough.

Second Uncle, listen to me, from this month onwards, the salary of ordinary soldiers in the garrison brigade will be raised to 25 silver coins, and the salary of ordinary soldiers in the coastal defense fleet will be raised to 30 silver coins.

The salaries of officers at all levels of the garrison brigade and coastal defense fleet will be increased by 50.00% on the original basis. "

Chapter 43 Gambling

At around seven o'clock in the evening on July 7, Zhou Rui brought a large group of bodyguards to Wanhualou.

In the restaurant on the second floor of Wanhua Building, Wang Kui and Xie Dong had been waiting for Zhou Rui for a long time.

"Young Master Zhou, why did you come here? My stomach is almost empty." Wang Kui complained to Zhou Rui.

Zhou Rui sat down and said: "I'm different from you two guys who have nothing to do now, there are a lot of things waiting for me to deal with!

In order to have dinner with you two young and old tonight, I left the two female movie stars aside. "

Xie Dong smiled and said, "Young Master Zhou, is it true or not? Could it be that the two female movie stars you mentioned are Chu Yingying and Zhao Yan?"

Zhou Rui smiled proudly, "Of course!"

Wang Kui and Xie Dong immediately looked at each other, both showing surprised expressions.

Wang Kui swallowed his saliva, "Young Master Zhou, are you kidding me? Did you really take down Chu Yingying and Zhao Yan?"

"Hey, they will be my concubines from now on.

But they plan to continue to act in movies in the future, you just need to know about this matter, don't spread it to the outside world, and someday I will introduce the two of them to you. "

Wang Kui covered his head with his hands, and said sadly: "Zhou Rui, you are a guy with the opposite sex and no humanity!

You actually took the lover of my dreams as a concubine, I want to break up with you! "

Zhou Rui asked curiously: "Which of them is your dream lover?"

Wang Kui had a heartbroken expression on his face, "They are all! Every beautiful female movie star is the girl of my dreams!"

Xie Dong muttered indignantly, "Young Master Zhou, I need you to invite me tonight to make up for the wounded hearts of Young Master Wang and me. Ms. Chu Yingying and Ms. Zhao Yan are also the lovers of my dreams!"

Zhou Rui laughed and said: "No problem, I am happy today, you can order whatever you want!"

When Wang Kui heard this, the sad expression on his face disappeared instantly, and he said with a smile: "I'll just wait for your words!

Waiter, bring me 6 bottles of Gold Noble ice wine!Want 10 years!

Give me three more lobsters, all weighing more than 3 catties!

come again"

When Zhou Rui, Wang Kui, and Xie Dong were eating and chatting, a lazy voice suddenly came, "Isn't this the second young master of the Zhou family?

I heard that during the time I was away, Master Tuesday was very beautiful! "

Zhou Rui turned his head, and when he saw the speaker, the smile on his face disappeared immediately, "I haven't seen you for so long, I didn't expect that Master Cui San's mouth is still so stinky!"

The person who spoke was Cui Tao's half-brother Cui Xu, the third son of Cui Hong, the head of the Cui family, and also a well-known playboy in Ganyang City.

The playboys in Ganyang City are also divided into gangs. The group of playboys headed by Cui Xu have always had deep conflicts with Zhou Rui and their so-called "Four Overlords".

However, Zhou Rui knew that Cui Xu still had some military talents. After the Cui family joined Wei Jie in the previous life, Cui Xu also became a hero under Wei Jie's command and took the position of the main division commander.

"Zhou Er Er, keep your mouth clean when you speak!

Don't think that with a few more warships in your Zhou family, you can run rampant in Ganyang City! "

The person who said these words was Pang Du, the youngest son of Pang Yanqing, the head of the Pang family.

In addition to Pang Du, Cui Xu was followed by Dong Bizan, the second son of the head of the Dong family, Dong Zhong, and Wu He and Mi Quan, the children of the other two families in Ganyang City.

The Wu family and the Mi family, like Wang Kui's Wang family and Xie Dong's Xie family, are also considered big families in Ganyang City, but the Wu family and Mi family also do not have much military power in their hands, and their power cannot be controlled. Compared with the six major families in Ganyang City.

Wang Kui stood up "teng", and said to Pang Yanqing angrily: "Lame Pang, are you deliberately finding fault? Why don't you find a place to practice!"

Lame Pang is Wang Kui's nickname for Pang Yanqing. Two years ago, two gangs of dudes had a fight on the street. Pang Yanqing's leg was kicked and broken by someone in the scuffle.

Wang Kui saw Pang Yanqing limping, so he gave him such a nickname.

"Sunflower seeds, just practice and practice, I'm afraid you won't succeed!"

Sunflower Seeds is the nickname given to Wang Kui by Pang Yanqing.

As Pang Yanqing spoke, he rolled up his arms and sleeves, and Wang Kui was about to go up to him not to be outdone.

At this moment, Wan Ruyi, the owner of Wanhualou, appeared out of nowhere, "Oh, my young masters, my Wanhualou is open for business, but I can't stand the troubles of you all here. Don't do it! Don't do it!"

These dandies all knew that Wan Ruyi was backed by Shen Zhi. When Pang Yanqing and Wang Kui saw Wan Ruyi coming, they gave each other a hard look, but they had no intention of continuing to fight.

Cui Xu then sneered and said to Zhou Rui: "I heard that the young master bought a lot of slaves with high martial arts skills at the auction of the Nine Stars Hotel on Tuesday. I happened to go to Zeyang City in Yannan Town and brought back a few slaves. good hand.

I don't know if Master Tuesday dares to let your slaves compete with the few masters I brought back? "

Yanan Town is one of the six towns in the southwest of the Han and Tang Empires, and Zeyang City is the seat of Yanan Jiedu Mansion.

Zhou Rui curled his lips, "Sorry, I'm not interested, and I don't have slaves around me, they are all brothers who can block bullets for me."

As soon as Zhou Rui finished speaking, Dong Bizan behind Cui Xu sarcastically said: "Zhou Er Er, if you admit your love, you will admit it, don't talk about those useless things."

Pang Yanqing chimed in and said, "That's right, you don't need to find any reason to be a coward."

Wu He and Mi Quan also ridiculed Zhou Rui, despising Zhou Rui for not daring to accept the challenge.

Before Zhou Rui could speak, Xiong Da, who was standing behind Zhou Rui, suddenly said in a muffled voice: "Young General, I will compete with them!"

Zhou Rui was also furious at the words of Dong Bizan and Pang Yanqing at this time.

Now Xiong Da, Xiong Er, Xiong San, Xiong Si, and Hu Yi are all masters at the master level, and the strength of the four Xiong Da brothers is far beyond that of ordinary masters.

Zhou Rui didn't believe that there would be master-level masters around Cui Xu.

You are looking for death yourself, but you can't blame others!
