Chapter 174 Guan Family
Chapter 174 Guan Family
The furnishings in the yard were hardly moved.
Ning Yuan brought seven or eight young men into the yard.
Chen Liangzi and his friends were playing mahjong in the house. When they heard some noise at the gate, they hurried out to check and happened to run into Ning Yuan and his friends who were walking in.
"Master Ning, why are you all here?"
When Chen Liangzi saw that it was Ning Yuan, he hurried over to greet him.
"Alright, Liangzi, now even the gate is not locked. You guys are much more confident. I still remember that I had to knock on the door for a long time every time I came to your place!"
Fatty Fan was sent by Ning Yuan to come to Chen Liangzi and others to make that iron vest last time. He also followed Ning Yuan when he came here several times before.
So he is really an old acquaintance in this courtyard, so he made a joke.
"Hey, Fatty, what are you talking about? Now, in the whole city, everyone knows our Master Ning and you guys. That's what we deserve!"
Chen Liangzi laughed out loud at the fat man's teasing, and then he gave a thumbs up to everyone while speaking.
"I'm not flattering you, Master Ning, Liangzi. A few days ago, my men, Xiao Si and the others, accidentally let it slip that our supporter is you, Master Ning. A group of colleagues who used to have a feud with us brothers wanted to treat us to a meal that evening to make amends!"
Chen Liangzi is just taking advantage of the power of others, but it is also the truth. As Ning Yuan's fame grows, mentioning his name is really enough in this city!
Ning Yuan interrupted Chen Liangzi with a smile and motioned him to go inside and talk.
Chen Liangzi quickly led the way and welcomed Ning Yuan and the others into the house!
The buddies who followed Ning Yuan in were invited by Xiao Si and his friends to sit at the table outside and drink water.
Ning Yuan asked Chen Liangzi to take him to the inner room.
"Master Ning, if you have any instructions, I, Chen Liangzi, will do them even if it means my death!"
Chen Liangzi is a very insightful person, and these words are a disguised expression of loyalty.
But everyone has vanity. Even though Ning Yuan knew that Chen Liangzi was good at speaking sweet words, he still felt relieved when he heard him.
After laughing, Ning Yuan said to Chen Liangzi: "Liangzi, you have a lot of connections. If there are any young people who have nowhere else to go and have been forced to become beggars, find a few of them for me!"
"Desperate Huazi?? Master Ning, what do you want them for? If you have anything to do, just tell me what you want!"
Chen Liangzi also understood his own position. He knew that the reason why he and his people were so valued by Ning Yuan was that he was sensible and gave away the good things in his hands early on.
Secondly, his group of people are useful to Ning Yuan. Whether it is gossip or a bunch of miscellaneous people from all walks of life, he can find the right one!
So when he heard that Ning Yuan intended to recruit some beggars, he felt that his position was threatened.
As we all know, throughout the dynasties, the Beggars' Sect has always been the most unfathomable gang, or group, in the world.
There are many people, many eyes and ears, they are well-informed and bold!
Even the rumor about the house in Xizhimen was spread by those beggars like Erlaizi!
So Chen Liangzi quickly spoke at this moment.
Ning Yuan straightened his expression, looked at Chen Liangzi and whispered, "I want to kill a few people. Can you help me do it?"
Chen Liangzi was shocked when he heard this. He swallowed and spoke nervously.
"Well, Master Ning, I, Liangzi, was so careless that I shouldn't have said anything! If it comes to this kind of thing, I've heard of a few suitable ones. I'll look for them over the next couple of days!"
Ning Yuan nodded and said to Chen Liangzi, "Don't be so nervous. Liangzi, you are the one I trust the most. Do your job well, and you will definitely get the benefits!"
Chen Liangzi did not deny this. Although he gave all the good things in his hands to Ning Yuan, Ning Yuan also got back more than 3,000 yuan in cash.
Now that I have my own house, I no longer have to go to the market every day and risk being caught, or to pick peaches in the wind and cold.
I stay at home every day, keep the stove burning, keep the house warm, have food and drink, and play mahjong with my brothers when I have free time!
I wouldn’t trade this day for anything even a god could offer.
Chen Liangzi and his friends had never lived like this before, they couldn’t even imagine it!
In the final analysis, all of this was really brought to them by Ning Yuan, so when Ning Yuan said that they would benefit from it, Chen Liangzi believed it very much.
After nodding, Chen Liangzi asked again: "Master Ning, after I find these people, where should I take them to see you?"
"Just take him to the house in Xizhimen. You know the way there anyway, so just take him there when the time comes. I should be there during this time!"
After Ning Yuan finished speaking, he remembered what he had said to Chen Liangzi and others before.
He asked Chen Liangzi and others to stop attacking the poor people, and these Buddhist masters actually listened to him!
(Of course, the money Ning Yuan gave them was quite a bit, enough for their expenses. Otherwise, if they had nothing to eat or drink every day, would they do anything? What kind of morals and qualities would they have? Could they even eat?)
Then the next step would naturally be for these guys to find some suitable Bannermen houses to practice.
It just so happened that Ning Yuan also needed money at this time, and he had no psychological burden in doing this thing of robbing the rich to help the poor!
Walking inside their two-courtyard house at Xizhimen and passing through the diagonal alley, there is a house with the same layout as Ning Yuan's house.
He also heard it from a few beggars who squatted at the entrance of the alley at Xizhimen every day, namely Er Laizi and his gang.
There were eight people, including three generations of grandparents and grandchildren, living in the house.
The owner's surname is Guan, which was changed after the Republic of China. The previous Manchu surname was really hard to remember, and it would be fatal for Er Laizi and his bunch of beggars to remember it.
However, Ning Yuan did know something about it, and it was most likely that it was a reformed branch of the Guwaljia clan.
It is said that this family had a very prominent background. They were driven out of the Prince's Mansion in the third year of the Republic of China and bought a house in Xizhimen to live in.
The old man smokes opium, and his son is a gambler and whoremonger. Only the grandson is a decent person. He went to school for a few years, but he has nothing to do now.
This family doesn't do any production and just lives like this every day.
Logically speaking, this kind of person should have been sent to labor camp more than ten years ago, but it is said that they found that person's way, and hey, she was saved.
(That’s probably the story. Think about it carefully, how did the royal influencers who are active on the Internet survive?)
(At the founding of the country, all the property should have been confiscated, so how could so much be left behind? Do you really think they started from scratch again??)
When Erlaizi and the others talked about other people's lives, they were so envious.
Unfortunately, they don’t have the intention or the courage to do so.
But isn’t this a coincidence?
I met a guy who has both the intention and courage to steal!
