Volume 1 Chapter 70 Unwritten Rules

  Bring Li Jing-shui and Wei Tie-zhu to the motorcycle, seeing two people sulking what's wrong with you? The two of them fought 12 rounds, didn't suffer a loss, and also showed their faces.

  Li Jing said gloomily: "We have violated military orders."

  Wei Tiezhu said: "We didn't protect you well."

  "Yes," Li Jing Shui said, looking at the bruise on my face: "And I almost took someone's life."

  I looked at the two of them, these two people were more seriously injured than me. Li Jing's eyes were cracked open and Wei Tiezhu was coughing non-stop. Out of a soldier's dignity, they refused the tiger's help. The two of them, one 18 years old and the other only 17... I felt a bit moved, and said to them: "Sit tight, brother will take you out for a drink."

  The two of them let out an "ah" in unison and said: "We can't drink!"

  "Sit down, what did Commander Xu say before he left? During this period, you must listen to me. Don't you want to avoid violating another military order?"

  The two men fell silent, and Li Jing knew that Dou Xinyan was not his match. Wei Tiezhu had been pondering the paradox: "No drinking in the army" versus "Obey my orders during this period".

  On the way, I told them not to mention having seen Liu Xuan for the time being. I took them to a bar, where Zhang Qing was standing at the entrance. As soon as he saw us three, he laughed: "Hey, have you guys been fighting?" I nodded, and led the two of them inside, found some medicine for them to apply. Zhu Gui and Yang Zhi didn't even ask any questions, in their eyes, killing people and setting fires were all trivial matters, this little injury was not worth mentioning.

  Zhang Shun and Ruan Jia brothers were also there, yesterday they were arranged by Ni Siyu's father to a boys' dormitory, I just found out that Ni Siyu was also there, she sat in the corner with a bottle of freshly squeezed orange juice, sticking out her tongue at me and smiling: "I'm here to play."

  I opened a few beers and handed them to Li Jing Shui and Wei Tiezhu, then grabbed one myself and sat down in front of the little beauty, smiling and asking her: "Have you learned anything?"

  Ní Sīyǔ said: "Teacher Zhang told me to forget everything I learned before, just like I couldn't swim. He also asked me to recall your appearance in the water and said that only by forgetting all the rubbish I learned before can I truly learn skills."

  I said indignantly: "It's too crowded, Xiaoyu. These few masters of yours are not good people, you'd better stay away from them."

  Ní Sīyǔ looked at the bruises on my face and smiled, "I think you're not a good person - are you guys going to watch a football match?" Ní Sīyǔ's home was near the stadium, often saw fans fighting, and today happened to be a match between Shanghai's certain club and the local football team.

  Zhu Gui chimed in from the side: "What's so great about that? Although Gao Jue isn't a good guy, he does kick better than those people."

  At this time, Zhang Qing carried a large plastic bucket in and excitedly said: "Brothers, good stuff!" I took a look and it was the "Three Bowls Not Over the Ridge" that I had packed.

  Zhang Qing said, opening the lid of the bucket and fanning it with his hand a few times. The large wine shop immediately wafted up with a faint scent of wine. The lazy good men suddenly stood up collectively and surrounded him, all shouting: "It's wine!" This remark was infuriating, could it be that this big wine shop sells only urine?

  Zhu Gui held a stack of steel cups and ran over, eagerly pouring wine to drink. After drinking half a cup, he smacked his lips and said: "The taste is slightly worse, but it's still passable." After finishing the sentence, he drank another cup, and Yang Zhi pushed him away with one hand while pouring himself a drink, saying: "You're not fully recovered, drink less."

  Zhang Qing said, "Don't rush, sit down. This bucket is enough for us to drink." He also called out, "Those two little brothers come too." Li Jing Shui and Wei Tiezhu were not used to drinking beer originally, they looked at each other, then looked at me, I said, "Go ahead, today you can let loose and drink." Firstly, young people love to join in the fun, secondly, this wine is really fragrant. These two probably had a craving for it since noon. They ran over excitedly, I thought: This is what they call 'bandits and soldiers are one family'.

  Everyone sat around the big table, waiting for Zhang Qing to pour wine. Suddenly, Zhang Shun turned his head and said: "Xiaoyu, what are you doing? Come over and have a drink."

  Ní Sīyǔ said pitifully: "Huh? I don't drink."

  Ruan Xiao'er had some wine and didn't care about being shy anymore, saying loudly: "If you can't drink, how can you swim on land?"

  "Does...does it matter?" Ni Siyu asked cautiously.

  "When you get drunk and are thrown into the water, if you can still float up by yourself, then you're considered a master."

  These people got drunk, showing off their arrogance, shouting and yelling. Ni Siyu was stunned, biting the mouth of her orange juice bottle. I told her: "Now you have two choices, one is to go back to drinking with them, to please your masters, or hurry home, don't mix with these rascals - I have your phone number, we can contact each other privately."

  Ni Siyu glared at me, took a deep breath, and resolutely walked into the middle of them to sit down. Zhang Qing poured her a large cup of wine, she picked it up and sipped a mouthful, immediately widening her eyes and saying: "Hmm, really good!" As she said that, she drank another big mouthful, and all the bandits cheered...

  Alas, an innocent girl has been ruined.

  I was applying an ice pack to my face when Chen Kejia called, and the first thing she said was: "Manager Xiao, you're really capable!" Before I could respond, she continued, "Liu Xuan has already resigned from me, so let your two friends take over as manager for now."

  Although her tone was quite sharp, I could tell she wasn't really angry, but rather a bit relieved. I said: "What do you mean by 'first', are you planning to find another one?"

  Chen Kejiao heard it was very noisy on this side and asked: "Where are you?"

  "Bar - I'm in charge, right?"

  Chen Kejiao said discontentedly: "Manager Xiao, you'd better not make my bar a mess. Someone told me that recently it's like a thieves' den."

  I looked around and found that Shi Qian was nowhere to be seen. I also said unhappily, "Miss Chen, please mind your words!"

  It's possible that no one has ever spoken to Chen Kejia in this tone before, or maybe she was used to my playful smile. Anyway, I stunned her with what I said, and then she hung up the phone.

  I took a glance at the crowd drinking over there, Zhu Gui left in a rather unscrupulous manner, and afterwards it was embarrassing to return home, so he scooped out some money to support educational undertakings...

  "Why did he have to do it himself? Couldn't he just donate the money and build a few school buildings for elementary schools instead? Are you talking about Holland or Henan?" Baozi wasn't stupid.

  Qin Shi Huang finally couldn't help but say: "How can you not make money? He was the first batch of students to gain fame, and later on, even if he charged tuition fees, wouldn't more students still come?"

  It seems that the fat and wealthy are also politicians, with sinister intentions and a long-term vision. The Qin army was invincible in its time, not only because of the ferocity of the Qin people, but also because of the generous rewards in the Qin military system. The military merit system had 20 levels, and the conditions for joining were very lenient, similar to "signing a contract". Then, based on the number of heads cut off, titles were granted. Even if one was only a second or third-rate soldier, they could still make a living. Once they became a "white gold warrior", being enfeoffed with 10,000 households was not far away. Therefore, whether it was the heavily armored infantry of Wei or the iron cavalry of Zhao, neither could compare to the "joyful warriors" of Qin's armor.

  But, as it turns out, what he said is also a good idea. Once the 300 Liangshan heroes are all sent away, my Yucai Wenyi School may actually become a regular school. With two classic battles against Zhu Tong and Lu Zhishen, this school has already gained some fame even before its official establishment.

  Li Shishi tapped the table gently with her chopsticks and said: "Elder brother, I also want to find something to do."

  I said: "Didn't we agree that you would become a teacher when school starts?"

  "Besides this, I also want to do something else, such as making movies."

  "What?" I was surprised why she would have such an idea.

  Baozi swallowed a mouthful of vegetables and said: "I support you Ha Xiaonan, just because of your appearance and temperament, you will definitely become popular!"

  I glanced at Li Shishi and said, "Brother, I have two pieces of advice for you: First, don't take on any roles from Wong Kar-wai, this guy takes at least a few years to make one movie, or else you'll end up breaking your promise and he'll come after me for compensation. Second, whatever you do, don't get '潜规则'...
