When Lin Tailai came to the Juyi Hall, he saw about twenty people standing under the steps of the corridor.
It can only be said that Hall Master Lu really thinks highly of Lin Tailai. I wonder if he is worried that Lin Tailai will start a fight on the spot, so he has deployed so many manpower for defense.
However, the eyes of these club boys looked at Lin Tailai with admiration.
In the minds of the club boys, the fact that he directly defeated the eldest brother of the opponent's hall leader with two punches was almost equivalent to the miracle of Guan Yu killing Yan Liang and Wen Chou among thousands of troops.
Lin Tailai, a time-traveler, really has no sense of belonging to Tangkou. If he were in a state where he could feed himself and the whole family, he would have run away long ago.
But it is a pity that people are social animals, and Lin Tailai can only suffer in the hall for the time being.
The Lin family's land is on the territory of Anletang. Because he works in Anletang, the family can reduce losses when paying the protection tax, which is very precious for a poor family with many people and little land.
But if he ran away, there was no telling whether his family would suffer retaliation from the society.
There are three leaders sitting in the Juyi Hall, the hall leader Lu Yibin is in the middle, the second leader Song Quan, and the third leader Xu Dasheng are on the left and right.
Several other leaders with slightly lower status were probably sent to the countryside to collect tax arrears, which was Tangkou's main business.
Lin Tailai cupped his fists and saluted, saying, "I've met the hall master, I've met all the leaders!"
Hall Master Lu coughed and said seriously: "This time when you went out to negotiate with Heyi Hall, you firstly disrespected your elders, secondly, you took matters into your own hands and caused trouble, thirdly, you carelessly accepted the hall's affairs, and fourthly, you ordered a five-yuan powder without permission.
, in short, violated several church rules!"
Lin Tailai listened indifferently. Ever since Hall Master Lu thought about selling him last night, he had no respect for this Hall Master in his heart.
What is the use of an elder brother who cannot stand up for his younger brother and even sacrifice his life?
Besides, Lin Tailai is now confident in all aspects, and he is not afraid of what Hall Master Lu will do to him.
As a rising gold-lettered double-flower red stick, and having just eliminated the association's biggest enemy, if Hall Master Lu openly attacks himself, it will be tantamount to destroying the Great Wall, and the association's hearts will be scattered.
"If you are punished as usual, you should be removed from the hall!" Hall Master Lu shouted majestically.
Can he escape from this garbage club? Lin Tailai suddenly opened his eyes wide and said in surprise: "There are such good things? Okay, okay!"
Hall Master Lu: "???"
What does this mean? Has Lin thought about moving to another place?
The second leader of the Song Dynasty quickly added: "My dear nephew, don't misunderstand! What the hall master means is that if you worship the hall master as your father, you can be exempted from the punishment according to the hall regulations!"
Lin Tailai's eyes widened again. Others call him Hengtang Lin Fengxian. Why doesn't Hall Master Lu give up? Don't you think it's taboo?
"What do you think of my nephew?" Leader Song asked again.
Lin Tailai refused without hesitation and said: "I don't want to!"
Three words, chatting to death. The last time Lin Tailai refused, the wording was very tactful, but this time it was even more tactful.
Hall Master Lu twisted his beard and said thoughtfully, "That way there will be no escape from punishment."
Lin Tailai answered: "Master, don't go through the process, just tell me the results!"
Hall Master Lu: "."
The leaders looked at each other in confusion. Does Lin Tailai have emotional intelligence? Can't he give the leaders a little face? How can he make the leaders step down by talking like this?
There was no choice but Uncle Song came forward to smooth things over. He racked his brains to think of words and persuaded the hall master: "Nephew Lin finally defeated Wu Yikui and made a huge contribution to the hall.
Concerning the merits and demerits of Nephew Lin, we need to look at them in two. My suggestion is 70% to 30%, 70% to merit and 30% to fault."
Hall Master Lu took a deep breath, and first reminded himself that he was old and needed to have a stable temper, and then said: "In recognition of your meritorious service to the hall, I will reward you by being a coward and going to see the prostitute's den!"
Anletang has two self-operated businesses in Hengtang Town, one is a prostitution den and the other is a gambling house. Both are illegal businesses, but no one is in charge.
It is not possible to support the society by just collecting protection taxes for the government in the countryside. There must be other inputs to subsidize it. This is the same for every society.
It's much easier to go to the town to watch the sex scene than to go to the countryside to collect taxes, so it's a good job. If you don't mind watching the prostitutes' den, you still have the opportunity to drink some oil and eat some meat.
But Lin Tailai said without hesitation: "I won't go!"
In the eyes of Hall Master Lu, it was a kind of reward to be responsible for watching the scene. Unexpectedly, he was flatly rejected by Lin Tailai, which was a bit shameless!
But Lin Tailai has great ambitions and plans to achieve fame, and he doesn't want to leave such a stain in his life!
If I become prosperous in the future, my history will definitely be dug up. If I am found out, I was born in a small town prostitute den, are I afraid that I will die in society?
Now even Uncle Song was angry and shouted: "Do you still want to go to the casino? I'm not afraid of killing you!"
"I won't go to the gambling house either!" Lin Tailai said firmly.
Hall Master Lu couldn't bear it and said: "This won't work, that won't work either. What on earth do you want to do? Let the Hall Master do it for you?"
Lin Tailai suggested: "How about Tangkou build a private school in the town, recruit some teachers and students, and I can sit in the school?"
Hall Master Lu's heart ached a little. What a mess. What serious society would set up a school?
It’s too difficult to take care of the rookie boy. I’m tired, so let’s dismiss him!
The leaders were all in trouble. In order to convince the crowd, they had to give Lin Tailai a promotion. They couldn't let him be a minion. But Lin Tailai always refused to accept it, which was difficult to handle.
Moreover, there are only so many locations in Anletang, so there are no more choices for Lin Tai.
Xu Dasheng, the leader of the three who had not spoken much today, suddenly interjected: "Why don't you let Lin Tai come and sell fish?"
For a moment, Dr. Lin couldn't help but feel a little confused. Did Mr. Xu travel through time after watching "Hurry Up"?
There is a fish market at Xujiang Wharf in the south of Hengtang Town, which is the largest fish market around Suzhou City.
Although this is an official market and not Anletang's self-operated property, it is entrusted to Anletang to inspect the venue and charge fees.
When Leader Xu San talks about selling fish, he means going to the fish market to see what’s going on.
Hall Master Lu had no desire anymore and waved his hand feebly: "Go if you want to!"
Under Uncle Song's glare, Lin Tailai accepted this "reward", otherwise he would not be able to step down.
The town is so big, and the Xujiang Wharf Fish Market is not far from the Anletang headquarters. Immediately, Uncle Song was ready to take Lin Tailai to the fish market to take up his post.
"Now you are in the limelight and will be stable for a few days! Just go and check out the scene." Song Quan warned.
Lin Tailai nodded casually. Although he was not interested in club work, he still had to do this job for the sake of living.
Song Quan continued to warn: "The wharf of Hengtang Town is located at the intersection of the Grand Canal and Xujiang River. There are many dignitaries coming and going. You must be careful and don't ignore it."
Then Song Quan asked again: "Is there anything else you want to bring? Bring it with you."
"Bring some books." Lin Tailai replied. Since he wants to take the imperial examination and achieve fame, reading is still necessary.
As the intellectual director of the society, Song Quan answered very professionally: "I have a copy of "The Art of War" by Sun Tzu."
Lin Tailai flatly refused: "Instead of reading "The Art of War" by Sun Tzu, I want to read "The Analects of Confucius", "Mencius", "The Great Learning", and "The Doctrine of the Mean"!"
Song Quan: "."
Nephew Lin is really crazy!
Although it has less than 30,000 words, it currently ranks third on the historical new book list and the top 50 on the total new book list. Thank you all and please continue to support!
