"Uncle Ming, where are we going next?"

Just at this time, Xu Li asked.

"The first thing we want to go to, of course, is the branch of the Lieyang Gang in Qinghe Town, North Street.

There should be a small assessment at that time, as long as you pass the assessment, someone will naturally arrange for you to do things. "

……

Sure enough, North Street is much more prosperous than West Street.

A restaurant with a height of three or five floors, a spacious silk and satin shop, the scent of rouge and gouache, overflowing from a shop full of ladies, and in a quiet bookstore, a group of scholars are all staring at each other...

Antique shops, calligraphy and painting pavilions, pawnshops, and even a theater...

Even though the sky had completely dimmed, the rows of lanterns on the shops on both sides of the North Street still illuminated the road very brightly.

Even Bai Ziyue, who considers himself well-informed, is dazzled when he sees many scenes similar to ancient times, let alone Xu Li and Zhang Guoyi, who are almost out of the village for the first time.

But soon, following Xu Ming's body turning, they left the block and came to a row of residential areas that looked like rich families.

After a while, Xu Ming stopped in his tracks.

The Lieyang Gang branch is here!

Chapter 5 Assessment

This is a branch that was obviously transformed from a mansion of a rich family. The stone lions on both sides are mighty and extraordinary, with a high gate and a small gate that can only be entered and exited by one person.

Xu Ming's status in the Lieyang Gang is not low, so he can naturally go through the door, but Bai Ziyue and others are not qualified, of course, it is not necessary.

So Xu Ming led the three of them along the outer wall for a while and entered through the back door.

Soon, Bai Ziyue and the others saw seven or eight children who were not much different from them in the backyard, standing obediently together.

"Go over and stand with them. I'll ask the steward here to say something. Don't worry, you can all pass the assessment based on my face."

Xu Ming said softly to Bai Ziyue and the others, and then left quickly.

Bai Ziyue took a look at these people. There were eight people in total, five men and three women. They were all seven or eight years old, and they should be the same children who were introduced as apprentices.

Perhaps Xu Ming's words were heard by them. When they saw Bai Ziyue and others approaching, their eyes were a little complicated.

In this regard, Bai Ziyue has nothing to say. He can successfully enter the Lieyang Gang and become an apprentice with the help of his relationship. Naturally, he will not give up.

After a while, Xu Ming strode back, but his face looked a little ugly.

Bai Ziyue's heart sank, and he had a bad guess.

Sure enough, his guess was quickly confirmed.

"Things are a bit difficult. The person who presides over the assessment this time just happens to be a little bit against me."

Xu Ming felt a little depressed, and even a little embarrassed. He had already made a promise, but unexpectedly, there was a twist.

Who knew that his opponent for the head of the wharf would change suddenly after leaving the wharf, and instead become the logistics manager of the branch of the Lieyang Gang.

"But don't worry, I'll watch the whole process later, and forgive Zhang Bo for not daring to embarrass you deliberately."

Seeing the obvious panic on the faces of Xu Li and Zhang Guoyi, Xu Ming quickly comforted them.

Bai Ziyue smiled wryly, he was afraid that you were here.

Uncle Ming is not around, and as the other party, it is not easy to embarrass these children, but Uncle Ming is by his side to protect, but it will make the other party take the opportunity to make things difficult.

It's just that even if he understands this truth, it's hard to explain it clearly, so he has to hold back and wait patiently.

Soon, a group of people stepped out of a house in the backyard.

The leader among them was a middle-aged man with a thin body and a fair face, but his eyes were small, and when he squinted slightly, there seemed to be a cold light flashing, giving people a feeling of extreme indifference.

Obviously, this is exactly the Zhang Bo Xu Ming was talking about.

Beside him, there are two young men, one fat and one thin. They are slightly behind half a figure, with a humble attitude and dare not go forward.

"This is the logistics manager Zhang of our Lieyang Gang branch, why don't you come over to see me?"

Beside Zhang Bo, the thin young man snorted coldly and said.

"Good job Zhang!"

All the children immediately stepped forward and said timidly.

"Hmph, pretending!"

Xu Ming snorted coldly, somewhat displeased.

Zhang Bo's face remained unchanged, and he looked at the first eleven children. Among them, Bai Ziyue, Xu Li, and Zhang Guoyi were relatively close to each other, and Xu Li looked at Xu Ming with pleading eyes from time to time. In addition, the faces of the two were somewhat similar, and in his heart There is a calculation.

"It's getting late, and I won't waste everyone's time. Do you guys know how to read? Stand aside."

Zhang Bo said calmly.

Hearing this, Bai Ziyue's complexion changed, and he couldn't help showing a look of helplessness.

He is literate, but it is written in the previous life. In this life, he naturally has no chance to read.

Knowing the importance of literacy, he once again decided to solve the problem of literacy as soon as possible.

But at this moment, a child took a small step with his calf, and then quickly backed away timidly.

"what are you doing?"

The thin young man stared.

"I... I can write my own name."

The child said timidly.

"What's the use of just two words? Stand still."

The young man snorted coldly and scanned everyone.

The child immediately didn't dare to make a sound, and the others also stood there motionless.

Apparently, of eleven children, none of them could read.

But this is also normal, who can read and write, which one is not wealthy?Naturally, it is impossible to condescend to come to the Lieyang Gang to apply for apprentices.
