Xue Yong was taken to a room behind the restaurant by the shopkeeper and arranged for slaves to eat. The waiter took Xue Yong to a table with free seats and arranged for Xue Yong to sit down. Four dishes and soup, a pot of rice and a pot of steamed buns were already placed on the table. Xue Yong took a steamed bun, tear it off one by one and stuffed it into his mouth. While eating, he fell into deep thought.

In the Xue Mansion, there were more than 300 guard soldiers, among them, the best twenty became Xue Lian's personal guards. Xue Yong and Xue Qiang were both one of these twenty. Moreover, they were all born from family children. The family children were those who had been slaves in the Xue Mansion for generations. Of course, the other more than 300 were basically born from family children. Only a few were relatively outstanding low-level officers and soldiers selected by Xue Lian in the Beijing Camp, and they added to his guard soldiers. Of course, as long as they joined the guard soldiers, they must sell themselves to the Xue Mansion and become the Xue Mansion's family children.

Maybe readers have a question, why do they have good soldiers and become slaves in other people's families? In fact, in the Ming Dynasty, for ordinary people, being slaves in wealthy families was one of the best jobs. The whole family had no corvee service; the salary was high, and there were many extra money rewards (it can be seen from the previous article that Xiuzhu was only with Wu Shigong for seven or eight years, and she gave it to her parents every month, and Wu Shigong was very neglected by the Wu family. But even so, she

You can save up 18 taels of silver. In the Ming Dynasty, 18 taels of silver could allow the family of four to spend more than a year); birth, old age, sickness and death are guaranteed, and the children's work can be solved (continue to be a household slave). That is not a iron job but a steel job. The only drawback is that children cannot participate in the imperial examination. But how many children do ordinary people have to read? But on the other hand, as long as the master's family needs, these slaves must also work hard for the master's family (this can also be seen from Shu Mo's experience in the previous article).

As Xue Lian's personal bodyguard, Xue Qiang and Xue Yong and others have undergone very strict military training. Because their role is not only Xue Lian's bodyguard, but also when Xue Lian leads troops to war, they are used as officers.

Unlike Xue Qiang who was the guard of Wu Shigong, Xue Yong was personally selected by Xue Lian and his guard leader Xue Yongli. Because everyone, including other personal guards, knew that their son-in-law was a nerd, young and had no social experience. He also knew that his son-in-law was a stingy person and was more mean to his servants. Therefore, Xue Lian and Xue Yongli had to choose a steady guard with rich social experience to assist Wu Shigong.

Xue Yong is the most suitable candidate. He is older, almost thirty years old, and he is very steady in his work. He has a good temper and looks like a good person. Especially since he knows a lot of words and is more active in his mind. Of course, the other guards are also literate, but most of them are just blind and can understand some simple official documents. Xue Yong knows a lot of words. Although he is not yet able to write online novels at Qidian, his writing style is still acceptable.

Since yesterday, Xue Yong has been paying close attention to his son-in-law. Because this time the Wu family married into the son-in-law and went to the Xue family's bad character to spread among these guards, these guards vaguely looked down on their son-in-law, but Xue Yong sneered at the view of these guards. That's because, although Xue Lian is in charge of the Xue family and will also be the young marquis (Xue Lian's grandson and grandson) in charge of the family, the middle part must be their son-in-law. As a family child, Xue Yong does not have the problem of whether to surrender to Wu Shigong, because they were originally sharing honor and disgrace with the Xue family. But if they can maintain a good relationship with the son-in-law, when the son-in-law is in charge, at least his children will have a good future in the Xue family. From this we can see that Xue Yong's mind is indeed relatively alive.

Although the observation time was still very short, Xue Yong found that his son-in-law was actually very organized in his work. For example, the questions asked yesterday were basically asked about the ideas. For example, after being insulted today, the son-in-law did not immediately retaliate, but patiently understood the situation with Xu Limu and went to the restaurant to have a meal to deepen his friendship. This seemed to be inconsistent with the rumored son-in-law's personality. Could it be that everyone was misunderstood? Did the Xue family pick up the treasure this time? But the time of contact with the son-in-law was still too short. Xue Yong decided to look at the situation again.

Of course, Wu Shigong didn't know that Xue Yong was like a psychologist downstairs, and he was happily continuing to have a banquet and chat with Xu Limu. As a classic question that can be harmonious, Wu Shigong of course asked Xu Limu, "What are the hobbies you have in your spare time?" Unexpectedly, when he heard this question, Xu Limu's body was a little obscene and disappeared all of a sudden, showing an extremely excited and excited expression. It seemed that this question was tickling Xu Limu's itchy point. Wu Shigong looked at Xu Limu with anticipation, thinking that Xu Limu's answer would not be due to the range of wine, sex, wealth, and energy. Unexpectedly, he spit out three words from Xu Limu's mouth: "Play chess!" This almost dislocated Wu Shigong's chin.

But Wu Shigong's reaction was quick, quickly concealed his surprised expression, and said to his preference: "So, when will I have free time? I will kill you two games."

"It's okay to have lunch break. There will be chess in the room of the official." Unexpectedly, Xu Limu couldn't wait.

"Okay! OK!" Wu Shigong agreed with a smile. In his previous life, if Wu Shigong had any special skills, he really only played chess. He once became a member of the Youth City Chess Team in elementary school, received professional and systematic training, and also won rankings in the city competitions. Although he never touched chess pieces after he was in the society, Wu Shigong estimated that with his own skills and could not suffer any loss.

At the subsequent dinner, Wu Shigong looked at Xu Limu's restless look and felt a little funny. He made Xu Limu feel at ease. After the dinner was over, they called Xue Yong and returned to the yamen. Xue Yong continued to look at the gate, and the two of them came to Xu Limu's room in the yamen, took out the chessboard and chess pieces, and then set off their posture.

In the first game, Xu Limu politely asked Wu Shigong to go first. But after three or five, Wu Shigong was defeated. Think about it, if you haven't played chess for so many years, what other way can Wu Shigong have? Then, in the second game, Xu Limu started with a turtle-back cannon. This was a rare start, with many tricks, but there were also big loopholes. However, what sadly for Wu Shigong was that he knew that Xu Li had a loophole in the beginning, but he couldn't remember where the loophole was? So he thought about how to deal with the moves, and the two of them fought evenly.

In fact, although Xu Limu is an amateur chess fanatic, his level is at most an amateur master, and he is one step behind the professional training Wu Shigong. After the previous hardships, Wu Shigong also picked up some chess paths. But after all, Wu Shigong had been born for too long, and if he was not careful, he fell into a trap, and the game of chess was defeated again.

However, the fierce confrontation in the second set made both of them feel excited and continued to the third set. When playing the chess, Xu Limu said apologetically to Wu Shigong: "If you play the chess, you will inevitably lose your composure and forget the superiority and inferiority."

"It's okay. It's okay." Wu Shigong thought to himself: Xu Limu is indeed a chess fool. When he meets a chess boss, if you play chess like this, he won't give you some shoes? "Practice your hands in the first two games, add some lottery tickets in this game, how about twenty-month?" Wu Shigong took advantage of his interest and proposed a small bet to please.

"Finish!" Xu Limu answered very simply. Such a small lottery ticket, in today's terms, is just a pack of cigarettes. And the boss is interested, why would Xu Limu not agree? As long as it was not the time to play chess, Xu Limu was still very smart. Then the two of them continued to play happily.

Gradually, the hundreds of households that Shu Mo had just summoned had already come. When they found out that Wu Shigong was playing chess with Xu Limu, they also came to Xu Limu's house, gathered beside him, and watched. Suddenly, someone rushed in outside the house.

Zhou Xun was the pride of his father since he was a child. He had become a famous teacher and had first-class skills in guns, sticks, fists and feet, and was known as one of the hardest fists in the Nancheng Military Command Office. Two years ago, Zhou Xun, who was only sixteen years old, was introduced to the Nancheng Military Command Office by his father, Zhou Shikun, deputy commander of the Nancheng Military Command Office, and quickly became his father's right-hand man with his own abilities. Because of his father's support and his colleagues' praise, he formed an arrogant personality because his abilities are indeed outstanding.

After the explosion in Wang Gongchang, the Nancheng Military and Ma Si had a vacancy of 100 households. After his father's efforts, he pushed him to this position (Zhou Xun did not know that it was Xue Lian's compensation for his father). Therefore, he became even more arrogant. Originally, he thought that with his father's ability and qualifications, the acting commander could not escape from his father's palm. Unexpectedly, the Ministry of War appointed a new acting commander, which made him unhappy. Later, he found out that the new acting commander was younger than him, so how could Zhou Xun, who claimed to be a young hero, bear this tone?

A few days ago, Ruan Xiong asked a few hundred households to talk to him, saying that the new agent commander had obtained this position because he married into the house of Yangwuhou. This made Zhou Xun jump immediately. When could a young man who was surviving a soft meal climb onto his head? Moreover, Ruan Xiong also encouraged them to say: To undermine the new agent commander. In that case, every month, the orderly bank paid by the hundred households was saved? With the help of interests, Zhou Xun jumped higher. He patted Ruan Xiong's chest and said: He wanted to give the new agent commander some color. After returning home, he explained Ruan Xiong's connection and his plans to his father. After thinking for a while, he acquiesced. With his father's support, Zhou Xun became even more unscrupulous.

So, after today's Damao, he made the thorn. He didn't think it was a big deal to do this thorn. Could this agent commander have the backbone of a man to fight with him? If he had backbone, he would not have married into his wife. As expected, it was not beyond his expectations. After slapping himself in the face, the agent commander did not respond, which made Zhou Xun proud for his accurate judgment.

After leaving the Bingma Si Yamen, Zhou Xun came to a gambling house in his jurisdiction. The Bingma Si did not have much input in the shop on the street, and all the oil and water were occupied by the factory guards (Dongchang and Jinyiwei), leaving only a little soup. In the past two days, Zhou Xun happened to contact the gambling house and became his big customer. The gambling house promised Zhou Xun that as long as the Bingma Si protects them, he would pay 80 taels of silver to Zhou Xun every month. Therefore, in the past few days, Zhou Xun personally guarded the gambling house to leave a good impression on the gambling house to protect this important customer.

Unexpectedly, a servant came just now and told him to arrive at the yamen in the afternoon. The acting commander was going to have a meeting. Zhou Xun could bear his breath and bring his several subordinates to the yamen. However, he heard that the acting commander was playing chess with Xu Limu. This made him furious.

Zhou Xun rushed into Xu Li's house, overturned the chessboard, and shouted at Wu Shigong: "If you have nothing to do, why are you asking us to play chess? You have a lot of space to play chess. What kind of chess? Do you think I'm very empty!"

Then, he saw a fist in front of him from small to large, which was an angry fist.
