Rebirth of the Forbidden City: The Troublemaker in the Courtyard

Chapter 190 Recruitment



Chapter 190 Recruitment

Jin Changqing also quickly reached out.

Now that the matter is settled, let's go our separate ways.

Although Ning Yuan and his men did not get the red-lettered iron certificate after all this mobilization, they did get two boxes of cloisonné jewel-inlaid gemstone covered bowls, which was still a considerable gain.

The most important thing is that a path has been opened up.

He thought that he could collect more folk items in the future, and sell more folk items at auctions, mixing in one or two imperial artifacts each time.

And you can leave yourself a lot of assets.

After returning to the courtyard of Xiebian Hutong, Ning Yuan asked a few of his friends to take the cloisonné porcelain bowls in the two boxes into the inner room.

Although the box is old, it is not of much value, so I'll just keep it to store some things.

Back in the inner room, Ning Yuan put all sixteen sets of cloisonné porcelain bowls into the space.

In the yard, Zhang Haiyang and his friends have already started thinking about what to eat for lunch.

Ning Yuan didn't have any extra money to ask Donglaishun or Lao Mo to do this these days.

Just cook some daily meals in the yard.

Chen Liangzi and the others didn't leave either. Ning Yuan kept them on purpose.

While the brothers are busy outside, let’s have lunch.

Ning Yuan called Chen Liangzi into the house.

"Master Ning!"

After Chen Liangzi followed into the house, he took the initiative to ask questions.

"It's okay, Liangzi. Why are you still so reserved? Sit down and talk!"

Ning Yuan asked Chen Liangzi to sit down before continuing.

"A couple of days ago, we talked about finding some people who are desperate or can't make a living. Have you made any progress?"

Ning Yuan was also helpless about this matter, as his circle was just here.

He is surrounded by people from wealthy families. Although life may be a little difficult at the moment, they all come from respectable backgrounds. How could they just become Ning Yuan's white gloves?

Although Bian Hongqi and his men do not have the financial resources of Ning Yuan, they are surrounded by lonely young men whose families have been destroyed. Even if they do not need support, they are all ruthless people who are willing to sacrifice their lives!

When Chen Liangzi heard about this, his expression became a little confused.

"Master Ning, I've actually found out about a few of them who have ruthless personalities, but they're not easy to contain!"

Ning Yuan also became interested after hearing this.

"What's going on? Liangzi, tell me in detail. I really don't believe that having money can't win people over!"

When Chen Liangzi heard Ning Yuan's words, he could only explain with a wry smile.

"Master Ning, west of Zhengyang Gate, in Xiushui Hutong, there's a young man named Wu!"

"His father used to be a soldier in the national army. After being exposed last year, his parents and his eldest brother died that same day!"

"That is, he didn't go home. Otherwise, it would probably be..."

Ning Yuan frowned, sighed, and then asked.

"Then why didn't he join Bian Hongqi and his men?"

When Chen Liangzi heard this, he was stunned for a moment and seemed to be speechless, but he quickly continued the conversation.

"Master Ning, you might not have realized that his family belongs to that powerful group. Bian Hongqi and his gang may be reckless, but they'd definitely avoid people like him!"

After hearing this, Ning Yuan immediately slapped his forehead. According to his family's situation, he should be at least a military officer of a high rank! He was indeed thinking about it and didn't react.

"So what's his situation now?"

"Master Ning, this guy was said to be working for the pair of brothers who died in Yuyuantan some time ago. His name is Wang Shuanghe!"

After hearing this, Ning Yuan roughly understood.

No wonder this guy can survive with such a background, it turns out he has found a backer.

Ning Yuan put himself in his shoes and suddenly felt that this boy named Wu was really not simple.

His entire family was wiped out, leaving him as the only one, and he had this kind of background.

Ning Yuan couldn't imagine how humble his life was, but he could roughly guess it from the fact that he later joined the group of people who killed his parents.

Although it was not Wang Shuanghe and his group who attacked his family, you see, people like Little Bastard, Bian Hongqi, and Liu Chuanwen directly hate the entire veteran community.

I think it was because neither side could tolerate him and he really couldn't survive, so he submitted with hatred.

Ning Yuan became more and more interested and asked.

"Have you ever come into contact with this guy? What does he mean?"

Chen Liangzi scratched his head and said with a frown.

"I asked someone to ask him, but there was no reply. He's really a cold person and doesn't trust anyone at all!"

Ning Yuan nodded. He could understand it. After all, he had such experience of relying on mountains and water for survival. If he was not cautious, how could he survive?

"I guess we can't invite him. Do you know where he lives now, Liangzi?"

"Master Ning, it's hard to say right now. He used to live on Zhushikou East Street, which is pretty close to our little courtyard. But after the incident at Yuyuantan a few days ago, I haven't seen him much!"

Chen Liangzi was telling the truth. The guy surnamed Wu was very vigilant. As soon as his backer got into trouble, he immediately lay low and didn't show up at all.

Ning Yuan felt more and more that this kid had the talent to be a professional killer.

After thinking about it, Ning Yuan said to Chen Liangzi.

"Liangzi, arrange for a few of your brothers to take turns guarding Zhushikou and see if you can run into him. This guy is quite interesting. If you run into him, don't get into a fight with him. Just tell him that it's me, Ning Yuan, who wants to recruit him!"

Chen Liangzi listened carefully and nodded.

"Are there any other candidates? The people I want are no ordinary idiots. Just one or two tough guys like this won't be enough!"

Ning Yuan saw that Chen Liangzi was concerned, so he turned around and continued asking.

After what happened, Chen Liangzi had nothing bad to say.

"There's another one, Master Ning. That kid is a scoundrel who grew up on the streets. Years ago, he was nearly beaten to death by a group of hooligans. It was Xiao Si who passed by and couldn't bear it, so he took him to the clinic, saving his life!"

Ning Yuan frowned when he heard this.

"Can you trust a scoundrel like that? I want a man who's brave enough to kill but can still hold his tongue!"

Chen Liangzi nodded quickly and continued.

"Master Ning, I believe I have some confidence in judging people. If Liangzi hadn't suffered these misfortunes, he would still be a scoundrel. I wouldn't dare mention him to you, but since he had a near-death experience last year, his temperament has changed drastically!"

Ning Yuan nodded doubtfully.

"Since you said so, then bring him here for me tomorrow! You should also take care of that other guy named Wu!"

After listening to Ning Yuan's explanation, Chen Liangzi nodded repeatedly.

I felt relieved because the guy he mentioned later had just come to my house the day before yesterday.

Ning Yuan is behind Chen Liangzi, and Xiao Si saved his life.

So after that kid experienced life and death, he finally came to his senses and became so calm that he was completely different from before!
