Honglouchun

Chapter 186 Silver Fox

At night, Yanyuan yamen, side hall.

Jia Qiang looked at two unattractive middle-aged men, one was honest like a farmer, and the other was dull and clumsy like an old soldier.

He was faintly disappointed.

That's it, can he compete with people like Qi Yun's Star Picker and Gui Jianchou who sound like top experts?

No matter how bad it is, Aunt Sun, who runs a brothel, still has the famous name of Avalokitesvara.

When these two people came, they simply reported themselves to their homes, and then stopped talking...

Naturally, it was impossible for Jia Qiang to show suspicion and distrust on the surface frivolously. He smiled and said, "Sure enough, people can't be judged by appearances. Who would have thought that Uncle Gao and Uncle Shang could have such abilities? From now on, Jia Qiang's safety will be determined by Please, two uncles!"

After all, Jia Qiang bowed and was about to bow down.

It's not that he is contemptuous, but from now on, he will entrust his life to these two people, and at critical times, these two people will use their lives to protect his.

Jia Qiang felt that paying homage to them was more meaningful than kneeling at Jia's so-called elders.

No matter whether they have star pickers or not, Ghost Sorrow sounds so powerful, Lin Ruhai and Han Bin recommended them, and they would not be ordinary small characters. Jia Qiang didn't think it was a disadvantage to save his life.

After all, life is the most important no matter what time...

It's just that Gao Long and Shang Zhuo never expected that Jia Qiang could do this.

It's not that the two of them have never met Li Xian Corporal, but the two of them have self-knowledge, they are far from being soldiers.

Gao Long has been running around with Han Bin for ten years, and he alone has saved Han Bin no less than five times.

But the most Han Bin could do was to say thank you with a bowl of muddy wine.

Even so, Gao Long was extremely moved, and he would risk his life to protect Han Bin's safety every time.

The reason why Shang Zhuo followed Lin Ruhai desperately was because Lin Ruhai helped him avenge his blood.

The merchant was originally a big salt merchant in Yangzhou, but 20 years ago, he had a conflict of interest with the Ma family, one of the eight largest salt merchants at that time, and was finally wiped out by the Ma family.

In the fire that burned almost half of Yangzhou City, only Shang Zhuo escaped out of more than 130 people in the business.

But even if Shang Zhuo became a top master, it would be tantamount to wishful thinking if he wanted to avenge him with his own strength.

The Ma family fire merged with the merchants, and the momentum grew stronger, and there were not many running dogs under the door.

Shang Zhuo came to the door several times, but he was almost caught by mistake. Only then did he understand that in this world, justice cannot be obtained with just a pair of iron fists.

Just inadvertently learned that Lin Ruhai was going to attack the Ma family, so he recommended himself to the door and begged Lin Ruhai to accept him as a running dog, just for revenge.

After following Lin Ruhai for three years, Shang Zhuo peeled off the skin of the Patriarch of the Ma family intact with his own hands. In the end, the Patriarch of the Ma family could even see clearly what he looked like without skin.

Later, Shang Zhuo threw him into the salt pond...

This method of death is called salt burial.

After getting revenge for his great revenge, Lin Ruhai wanted to let him go for nothing, but Shang Zhuo thought to himself that he was the only lonely ghost in the world with nowhere to stay, so he just stayed by Lin Ruhai's side to repay his favor.

During this period, Lin Ruhai had been rescued several times, but Lin Ruhai would at most toast him with a glass of wine to show his gratitude.

A scholar has the dignity and pride of a scholar.

Even Gao Long and Shang Zhuo thought that it was rare to be able to achieve this step.

Never would have thought that Jia Qiang would pay such respects.

Of course they couldn't let Jia Qiang worship, the reason is very simple, there is a difference between high and low.

It is impossible for Gao Long and Shang Zhuo not to know about Jia Qiang's coming to Yangzhou Mansion for more than half a month.

A person who has a status in front of the Supreme Emperor, to show such a great gift to the two of them, they are born in the grass and lakes, thinking in their hearts that their lives are too low to bear it.

But no matter what, it is difficult for the two of them to feel moved.

Gao and Shang stepped forward to stop Jia Qiang, then knelt down together, Gao Long said loudly: "Since you have been ordered to come here, since then you have served as the servants of the young master, how dare you not do your best to serve the young master? "

Shang Zhuo also said in a deep voice: "From now on, I will protect the young master comprehensively, and I will not hesitate to do anything! There is only one matter, and the subordinates have to speak up."

Jia Qiang hurriedly said, "Uncle Shang can just speak up about anything. I want to entrust my life to the two uncles. You can speak up to me about anything and everything."

Shang Zhuo said: "Although the young master has the heart to respect both of us, how dare the two of us be called elders? It's a violation of the rules. Even if the young master respects both of us, he only needs to call us by our names. Otherwise, I feel really uneasy. "

Jia Qiang hurriedly helped the two of them up, and said with a gentle smile, "Forget it, if I call you a senior, you will probably feel uneasy. That's not as good as this. From now on, I will call you two big brothers. I also hope that the two big brothers will agree to me." one thing."

After Gao Long and Shang Zhuo looked at each other, they cupped their hands and said, "Dare to ask what is the matter?"

Jia Qiang smiled and said: "That is, no matter what the two eldest brothers think, what needs they have, whether it is gold or silver, or a house, or want to get married, or when they are tired of running around and want to When you settle down, you can talk to me. I am not afraid that others will buy you. If the two big brothers are greedy for fame and fortune, how can they follow Banshan Gong and my uncle, and never change their ambitions after going through hardships? It’s just that I am different from the two elders. People who live a good life, so I hope everyone around me can live well.”

When Gao Long and Shang Zhuo heard the words, there were some smiles on their faces, and they bowed their hands in agreement.

No matter what the new owner thinks, being able to say this is enough to give them dignity.

Jia Qiang said again: "In the future, I may have a lot of things to do, and there will be a lot of important places that need to be taken care of. Therefore, if there are only two elder brothers, the manpower is still too small. I don't think it is better than this. The defense team around me, with The two big brothers are the absolute core. The two big brothers each recruit eight reliable brothers, together with the two big brothers, the eighteen guards are the core guards that I rely on to survive. , to recruit another 36 people, and we also need trustworthy and reliable brothers as the outer guards. Among the 52 people, Big Brother Gao will lead 26 people, and Big Brother Shang will lead 26 people. How to schedule and rotate is up to you. How many people will you need? You can talk to me directly about money, or what relationship you need to find someone, or you can tell Li Jing the same. In short, no matter what relationship is used or how much money is used, from now on, my personal safety must be guaranteed. Do it all right!"

He is not afraid of being laughed at, he is afraid of death, so he is willing to spend a lot of connections and wealth to build an absolutely reliable guard.

And the reason why he trusted Gao Long and Shang Zhuo so much was not so much trusting them, but trusting their former masters Han Bin and Lin Ruhai.

Even though Han Bin wanted to plot against him several times, and wanted to use him, a good minister of the Supreme Emperor, to break the situation in the south of the Yangtze River, but Han Bin had no self-interest in his heart.

Han Bin is truly dedicated to seeking the country, so Jia Qiang believes that the person he gave as a gift is worthy of trust.

Jia Qiang did not believe that Han Bin would leave a "back door" on Gao Long. If so, it would not be a problem of means, but a problem of character.

And how could such a person sacrifice his life for the country?

Gao Long and Shang Zhuo did not expect that Jia Qiang would place such a heavy responsibility and trust on them.

As a man, how could he not have a heart to be in power?

It's just that in the past, in front of Han Bin and Lin Ruhai, it was very difficult for masters like them to truly stand alone.

But I didn't want it to happen here with Jia Qiang.

The two also knew that Jia Qiang divided the two into two groups, which could not only urge the two to compete, but also allow the two to check and balance each other.

But so what?

They were already prepared to do things for Jia Qiang, even if there was competition, it was just an interesting thing, not a bad thing.
