Northern Song Dynasty gangster: Start the game with a dog's head, and Mr. Bao spares his life

"Take your time, I'm telling the truth."

Only then did Cao Bin wave his hands and said, "Tell me, what is your relationship with Bai Yutang?"

The old Taoist immediately straightened up, taking it for granted:

"Young Master, you have to thank me. If I hadn't shot secretly, you would have died the first time you were assassinated by him."

The sedan chair said angrily: "You fart, it was Su Qiqi who blocked the knife for the young master, how can you have anything to do with it?"

The old Taoist glanced at the sedan chair, laughed and said:

"Then beggar Su is as fast as Bai Yutang's sword? If I hadn't helped him, by the time he made up his mind to block the sword, the young master would have died long ago."

Cao Bin felt cold in his heart and said:

"You threw him under the sword of Bai Yutang? What is your relationship with Bai Yutang? Are you taking human life too seriously?"

The old Taoist smiled and said:

"I just kicked him, and Fang Qiqi kept saying that he wanted to repay your kindness, so I will fulfill him! Didn't this also create the reputation of the young master as 'Xiao Mengchang'?"

Seeing everyone's strange eyes, he didn't care, and said with some pride:

"As for Bai Yutang, he has taught me the art of organs for a few years, so he can be regarded as half of my apprentice."

The sedan chair said angrily: "So you are the culprit. Then Bai Yutang is your apprentice, and you as a master must have abetted it."

As he said that, he increased his strength with his hands, and the old man's neck was deformed when he pinched it.

The old man hurriedly struggled and said helplessly:

"I'm so wronged. I warned him not to mess with the court, but he didn't listen to me."

Only then did Cao Bin understand the reason for his attack, no wonder he was scared of bloodshed and refused to let him go out.

So, he waved his hand, let the sedan chair let go of him, and continued to ask:

"Then why have you been hanging around my mansion? Do you have other purposes?"

The old Taoist glanced at Shi Qian, grinned and said:

"Young Lord, I am much more capable than this little thief. Why don't you give me the same wages, and what will I do with you?"

Shi Qian made a "tss" and said, "What are you capable of? Didn't you get caught by me?"

Cao Bin gave him a strange look, and said with disgust:

"Brother Shi is loyal and has the ability to leap from house to house, what do you have?"

When Shi Qian heard Cao Bin's praise, he immediately straightened his back.

The old Taoist bowed his waist and said flatteringly:

"What kind of skill is it to jump up and down the house? At most, you can be a thief."

"My old Xia is proficient in Qimen Dunjia, mechanism arithmetic, Western eight-treasure turning screws, and is omnipotent in various constructions."

"When it comes to the ability to build institutions, my old Xia dares to say that he is second, and no one dares to say that he is number one!"

"Let's just talk about the Marquis Mansion of the Young Master. If you leave it to me to reform it, it will definitely be a trap every step of the way."

"Young Master will no longer be afraid of being assassinated by assassins..."

Cao Bin was a little confused about the real purpose of the old man, but his ability really moved Cao Bin's heart.

Among the Three Heroes and Five Righteousnesses, Bai Yutang's tricks are admired.

Whether it is Zhanzhao Zhanzhao or Three Explorations Climbing Towers, they have all demonstrated the power of his tricks.

Seeing Cao Bin's hesitation, the old Taoist quickly took out a palm-sized wooden lion from his sleeve, fiddled with it for a while and said:

"Let the young master see my ability."

As he spoke, he pressed his finger, and the lion roared, then jumped up and began to shake its head.

In the end, the lion suddenly spewed out a fist-sized fireball before stopping, standing still like a puppet.

The old man looked at Cao Bin eagerly and said, "Young Master, is it fun?"

Shi Qian curled his lips in disdain and said, "That's what you can do? Are you treating Young Master like a child?"

Cao Bin was interested. Although the puppet lion looks simple on the outside, there must be many mechanisms inside. With some mechanical foundations, it can be so flexible.

However, his abilities were obviously used in the wrong place.

This wooden lion is fun, but it's all handmade by himself, and I don't know how much energy it takes.

Blindly pursuing novelty, Kit Kat, did not play the original function of the machine at all. If it can be used in people's livelihood and military equipment, its value is immeasurable.

Cao Bin temporarily let go of his fear of being a veteran, nodded and said:

"It's interesting. You can stay at the mansion in the future and worship like Shi Qian."

Xia Laodao suddenly became happy, and quickly bowed respectfully and said:

"Thank you, Young Master."

Cao Bin waved his hands and said, "I can warn you, if you collude with Bai Yutang and try to plot something wrong, I will definitely not forgive you."

Xia Laodao hurriedly patted his chest and said:

"Don't worry, young master, if that monkey boy wants to overthrow my old man's job, I'm at odds with him!"

Cao Bin was speechless, and asked someone to bring over the Zhuge Liannu he had exchanged, handed it to the old Taoist and said:

"Look at this thing, can it be imitated!"

The old man's eyes lit up, he hurriedly put the crossbow in his hand and said:

"Could it be that this is the legendary Zhuge Liannu? Isn't it already lost? Where did the young master come from?"

Cao Bin shook his head and said:

"Don't worry about where it came from, just imitate it. If it succeeds, I will reward you with 1000 taels of silver."

As a crossbow, the range must reach at least fifty steps to be considered qualified.

In fact, the craftsmen of the Song Dynasty can also produce Liannu, but the range and strength are not satisfactory, and the process is complicated, so they cannot be used for military use.

Not to mention iron armor, even leather armor can't penetrate, the price/performance ratio is too low.

However, the Liannu that Cao Bin exchanged from the Time and Space Mall can shoot through leather armor within [-] steps, and the bullet speed is extremely fast, so it is very precious.

Cao Bin, as a child of Wu Xun, will fight on the battlefield sooner or later, so he can be considered as a rainy day.

Xia Laodao held the crossbow and looked back and forth for a while, Fang said:

"The materials for this crossbow are very rare, and I'm afraid it's not easy to imitate."

Cao Bin waved his hand and said, "Don't worry about the material, I can arrange someone to find it for you..."

In the next few days, Cao Bin also understood the purpose of Xia Laodao's seeking refuge in him.

This guy is simply lazy by nature, he hired two little maids himself, and used the lack of materials as an excuse to enjoy himself leisurely every day.

As long as Cao Bin didn't give orders, he wouldn't bother to move for a day.

Where is this for work?It's clear that he's looking for someone to take advantage of and come here to take care of him.

When Cao Bin saw him like this, his mind was full of black lines. In a fit of anger, he arranged many research and development tasks for him.

Tell him clearly that if you can't make something useful, let him pack up and leave.

And Cao Bin himself began to be busy with the affairs of Wa Si.

After more than a month of construction, Caoduwasi has begun to take shape.

In the first phase of the project, Cao Bin intends to attract customers with gambling houses and theaters as the core.

People in Song Dynasty like to play lottery, no matter what they do, they take it for fun.

Cao Bin came up with many new things such as poker and mahjong.

With these things, Cao Bin believes that he will be able to attract a large number of customers.

However, there is no such thing as patents in this era, even if Cao Bin first develops these game projects, it cannot stop others from imitating them.

The fresh way of playing may give Cao Duwasi an upper hand, but it cannot overwhelm other Wasi in one fell swoop.

Therefore, the focus of Cao Bin's creation is still on the theater.

As long as he cultivates a group of core actors, he can form a fan effect and make Cao Duwasi's competitiveness last forever.

What pleased Cao Bin the most was that, for some unknown reason, Li Shishi agreed to audition on the opening day of the theater.

With the blessing of her first name, Cao Bin believes that his tile shop will be a hit on the opening day...

The building of Wasi has been basically completed, and Cao Bin began to recruit high-level acrobatic troupes, storytellers, folk art troupes...

He is also preparing to perform in person, rehearsing repertoires such as The Legend of the White Snake.

At that time, there were no complete operas, only Sanqu and Zaju, and Cao Bin was considered a historical precedent.

It's just that the more well-known teams have fixed performance venues, and if they want to open directly and quickly, they have to poach other people's walls.

Under Cao Bin's large amount of money, various teams also hired seven or eight.

But the theater troupe performing miscellaneous dramas stumped him.

These people are the pillars of other tile houses, so it is not easy to dig them out.

And because of Cao Bin's reputation, no one knows how long Cao Duwasi can last.

No matter how high the price Cao Bin offered, the troupe was unwilling to take risks.

If Cao Duwa Si suddenly closed down after they quit, it would be a waste of time.

Although Cao Bin intends to train opera actors himself, he also needs to train people who have a certain foundation in drama.

If you start cultivating from a pure and clean, you don’t know how many years it will take to become a talent, and the day lily will be cold by then.

On this day, Uncle Fu suddenly brought a well-mannered middle-aged man to Cao Bin.

"Master, this is the head of Yinu's troupe, Mr. Feng!"

"He intends to bring the troupe to our Cao Duwa Temple, but he is still a little worried and wants to meet the young master in person."

Cao Bin has been worrying about the troupe these days. "Yinu Troupe" is a very famous troupe in the capital.

Unexpectedly, they came to the door.

Cao Bin suddenly became interested, stretched out his hand to invite Mr. Feng to take a seat, and asked politely:

"Mr. Feng, if you have any worries, just tell them. As long as you can bring your class to me, I will take care of your worries."

Mr. Feng gave a deep salute, and said with some fear:

"Don't dare to be, the young master has flattered him. What is the status of a villain? Don't dare to be rude in front of the young master."

As he spoke, he cautiously fought in front of Cao Bin, cupped his hands and said:

"Being praised by the young master, we are naturally willing to come to the tiles of the young master to listen to his teachings, but there is a troublesome matter, and we dare not report it to the young master in advance."

Cao Bin asked: "What's the matter, just tell me and listen."

Mr. Feng gritted his teeth and said:

"Wa Si, where my class is now, is run by Gao Taiwei's mansion. If we change the door, I'm afraid it will bring some troubles to the young master."

Then, he said with some shame:

"It's just because the little boy Yinu looks like a woman, and Gao Yamen are entangled, and the villain has no choice but to trouble the young master."

"My family has only Yinu, a single seedling. I expect him to inherit the incense of the Feng family, and I dare not let him damage the foundation..."

Good guy, I thought that Gao Yanei would compete with him for Prime Minister Cao's inheritance, but I didn't expect him to have such a wide range of hobbies.

For a while, Cao Bin was a little ashamed of himself!

But Cao Bin didn't care about it, not to mention that he had a big backer Pang Taishi behind him, so he was not afraid of Gao Qiu at all.

Anyway, what happened last time has already offended Gao Qiu, so it doesn't matter to offend him again this time.

It's worth it to make money!
