I sold snacks in ancient times

The strong men found a restaurant by the side of the road and sat down in a swarm.Their strong and tall stature and menacing look scared the nearby diners to stay away.

"Shop waiter, bring me three catties of good wine! And some good food."

The leader, a strong man with a horse face, wanted to say something more, but the person next to him pulled his sleeve and said in a low voice, "Brother, we are almost out of money."

The burly man with a horse face patted his chest and said, "I can still afford this little money! No problem!"

Qi Yongfan watched from a few steps away and heard their conversation clearly.He sat by the side, called the waiter, threw a tael of silver, and gave some orders in a soft voice.

After a while, Xiao Er took the cup and tray to the strong man's table, bent down and put the food and wine on it one by one.

One of the strong men hesitated and said: "Brother, you didn't order pork, did you? Why are there two extra plates of pork head?"

The person next to him shouted: "This wine is definitely more than three catties...it's a big jar!"

Everyone exaggeratedly exclaimed, the table was full of gourmet delicacies, even when the Longmen Escort was at its peak, they had never tasted it.

The burly man with a horse face said calmly: "Xiaoer, you served the wrong dish."

"That's right." Xiao Er smiled and pointed to the side, and said: "These wine and dishes are all invited by that young master."

Everyone couldn't help but look to the side, only to see a handsome man in blue clothes holding a cup with a smile, facing them from a distance.

The man was extremely handsome, with regular facial features, like a bright moon and spring breeze, which made people feel a little bit more favorable.

The burly man with a horse face said: "Dare to ask the young master's name? I thank the young master for the hospitality on behalf of the brothers!"

"Qi Yongfan."

He got up and walked towards the strong man with a horse face, and someone immediately made room for him.

The burly man with a horse face clasped his fists and said, "So it's Mr. Qi, and my name is Ma Fengwo."

Hornet's nest?

The corner of Qi Yongfan's mouth twitched, thinking what the hell kind of name it was.

The strong man surnamed Ma is quite enthusiastic, probably because of the bodyguard, he is very loyal and treats people sincerely.Everyone exchanged cups and cups, and soon began to call Qi Yongfan brothers.

After drinking for three rounds, I don't know who opened the mouth, so I talked about the matter of escorting the government tribute a while ago but being robbed by bandits, so that the Longmen Bodyguard Bureau no longer exists...

Qi Yongfan said: "Why did the government punish you for your crimes, instead of sending troops to exterminate the bandits?"

Ma Fengwo said disdainfully: "If the government had this ability, they would have already sent people to escort them, so why would they hire us?"

The ancient Escorts were quite regional.For example, the Longmen Escort Agency can only take care of the business in Yuechuan County at a certain level.

If you go to other places and you are not familiar with the place, the strong dragon can't overwhelm the local snake, and you will definitely suffer.

This time, Ma Fengwo and others suffered from the region and did not contact the local bodyguard bureau in advance, resulting in the loss of the goods and ruining their reputation.

Escorts are all about noble business.Don't pay attention to ordinary people.Therefore, they earn more, and the corresponding risk factor is also high.If the brothers in a bureau encounter any danger, compensation and the like are essential.

Now the Longmen Escort Bureau has been ransacked by the government, and there is no money left. They have lost the chance to make a comeback.

Thinking of this, everyone couldn't help feeling a little frustrated.After drinking this glass of wine, maybe the brothers in the escort agency who lived and died together in the past will go their separate ways.

Someone asked Ma Fengwo, "Brother, are we really not going to open an escort agency?"

Ma Fengwo sighed, "I'm really sorry everyone, I can't even pay your monthly money now, let alone maintain a huge bodyguard agency..."

Everyone fell silent.If they are still young, maybe out of loyalty, they are willing to do nothing and start over with Ma Feng.

But now the vast majority of them have married, there are seniors and juniors, and it is absolutely impossible to have no money.

After Ma Fengwo drank a glass of wine, he looked down at the empty wine glass, feeling a little disappointed.In fact, there is still one thing he didn't say, that the Escort Bureau values ​​credibility the most.After ruining the escort of the government, which businessman will hire the Longmen Escort in the future?

Qi Yongfan noticed the depressing atmosphere, but he didn't announce the express delivery plan he came up with.

Let's take a look again, at least for now, he doesn't trust the other party.

Someone asked: "Brother, will you go back to be a catcher?"

Ma Fengwo said vaguely, "I don't know yet."

"Well...it seems that I can only go back to the village and work as a bricklayer."

"At least we still have strength. Brothers, don't disappoint, you will never die of hunger!"

Under the sumptuous food and drink, they ate and drank while feeling sad.Brothers who have been together for so many years may never see each other again...

"Young Master Qi, I'd like to offer you a toast!" Someone handed Qi Yongfan a drink, and said loudly: "If it wasn't for you, maybe we brothers wouldn't even have enough wine to drink, so why would we want to think about parting."

"It doesn't matter." Qi Yongfan smiled back with a glass of wine, "It's not necessarily parting, maybe we can get together again in the future."

"yes……"

"But I just don't know when."

……

Before returning to Nanshan Town, Qi Yongfan took the time to go to Xia Xing Tavern.

Wang Kui arranged all chores in an orderly manner, and even the decoration of the courtyard was his favorite style.

Since there is nothing serious, he intends to leave.

Before leaving, Wang Kui asked him, "Why did you buy a mule?"

Qi Yongfan: "Deliver the goods, or do you think that I will deliver the goods to the county every day in a horse-drawn carriage?"

Wang Kui pursed his lips, and said: "Be careful in the future, I heard that the government will recruit soldiers. My father helped me take care of it before, but don't get caught."

Qi Yongfan smirked, patted him on the shoulder, and said, "You are so cute, you still use the word "take away" in this age."

Wang Kui: "..."

Qi Yongfan: "Well, I'll hide if it's a big deal, it's okay. I'll go first, and you can write to me if there is anything in the store."

Wang Kui nodded.At dusk, he stood at the gate of the small courtyard, watching the other party leave with the gentle breeze blowing.

……

The door of the inn.

Yin Xu waited for a long time but still did not see anyone, turned back and asked Ye Zi: "Where is Qi Yong?"

Ye Zi: "I don't know either. The shopkeeper said he went out early in the morning and hasn't come back yet."

Yin Xu looked up at the sky, thinking that this guy is really unreliable.He obviously made an appointment to go back early, but now he has released his pigeons again.

He shouldn't be so relieved that the other party is wandering around alone.

After waiting for a while, Qi Yongfan ran back panting, bent over to catch his breath, and said, "I'm sorry, I was delayed by something just now."

Seeing his appearance, Yin Xu couldn't bear to blame him, and said lightly: "Since we're here, let's get in the car."

"Ah."

Yin Xu thought that Qi Yongfan was still busy with Xiaxing Tavern.In fact, he just went to find Ma Fengwo and gave him a letter.

If Ma Fengwo believed in him, he might come to Nanshan Town to discuss courier cooperation with him in a short time.

Shaking all the way, don't mention it for now.

Before getting off the car, Yin Xu suddenly said, "I want to eat the instant noodles you cooked."

"Okay, I'll bring it to you when it's cooked." Qi Yongfan thought for a while and smiled, "It's free."

Leaf chuckled.
