Chapter 123 The House of Four Seas!

Datang is the world of martial arts, at least not the world of ordinary people in Wang Chong's impression.

Because it is the world of martial arts, there are many warriors that can be hired. These warriors are of different heights, good and bad, and their employment habits are also different. Some of them only accept a single task, some plan according to time, at least a month or more, and some have all kinds of weird strings attached.

In addition, these people come from different backgrounds and have various reasons for coming out for employment. Some people have pure goals and actually want to make money, but some people have impure goals and have other plans.

In the past, it was not unheard of for hired warriors to deliberately kill their employers and plunder property.

Therefore, everything needs to be carefully screened by the employer.

"It's here!"

In the southwest of the capital, near the city wall, Wang Chong raised his head and looked at this ordinary, short and small tea house in front of him.

There are only four simple words on the teahouse:

"Family of the world!"

Plaque primer is chipped and looks old.

"Master, is it here?"

“This place looks so run down!”

Shen Hai and Meng Long frowned with doubts on their faces. It is said to be a tea house, but there are very few people coming and going. Moreover, the location is very remote.

In the case of a tea house, if there are no guests, it is absolutely necessary to accompany Ben.

"Don't worry. It's here."

Wang Chong smiled casually.

If it is really a teahouse, of course I have to accompany Ben. The key is not here. In the entire Tang Dynasty, none of the places where warriors were hired was in the downtown area, and the more remote the better.

The "Home of the World" that Wang Chong sees now is just one of the many places where martial arts masters are hired.

After beckoning to Shen Hai and Meng Long, Wang Chong led them into the teahouse quickly. Although the outside looks dirty and old, the inside of the teahouse is very clean.

Wang Chong went in and found that all the wooden ladders were spotless, and the paint on them was very neat.

In addition, the floor is also very clean. Although it can't be said to be gorgeous, it is definitely not as simple as it looks, at least it has reached a normal standard.

In the teahouse, there are quite a few tables, and there are many warriors with different clothes and different temperaments, lying or sitting, or closing their eyes to rest, or pouring drinks alone.

When Wang Chong went in, he found that there were still quite a few people here to hire. Many people were dressed as wealthy businessmen, so the appearance of Wang Chong and others did not attract much attention.

"Shopkeeper, who has the highest employment price here?"

Wang Chong didn't talk too much, and went directly to the fat shopkeeper behind the counter with a sloppy face.

"Hey, did you see the one in brocade clothes and blue crown? Calculated according to the mission, one mission will cost at least three hundred taels of gold. People give him the nickname, Blood-Dripping Sword. The swordsmanship is very fierce! He is a master of the first level of real martial arts. His level , it is more than enough to be a guard in the palace. This kind of person is quite good!"

Behind the counter, the shopkeeper rolled his eyes and glanced at Wang Chong, then pointed to a middle-aged man not far away, who looked well-dressed, stern, and looked like a master.

Shen Hai and Meng Long were greatly moved when they heard the words. If there is a real martial arts master to help, the safety of the palace will definitely be greatly increased.

However, Wang Chong was not very satisfied.

"Three hundred taels? Are there any higher prices?"

Wang Chong frowned.

The employment price of three hundred taels of gold may be enough to show his level of strength here, but what Wang Chong is looking for is not at this level at all.

In my impression, that person's price cannot be solved by three hundred taels.

"higher?"

The fat, fleshy shopkeeper suddenly sneered twice, and took a careful look at Wang Chong, as if noticing him for the first time:

"After a long time, it turns out that you are pretending to be confused. You came here to make trouble for me on purpose. Okay! The person you are looking for is on the second floor, the one in the corner! Don't worry, you will never make a mistake."

As the shopkeeper said, he stuffed his hands into his sleeves, turned his face away, and ignored him.

Wang Chong just smiled and thanked him. Then he walked up the wooden ladder on the second floor.

Wang Chong went up to the second floor, and finally understood why the shopkeeper said that he would never make a mistake. On the second floor of Yuda, there are clear divisions, half of which are occupied by other hired warriors, while the other half is occupied by a grey-robed warrior.

This grey-robed warrior was about thirty-four years old, with an unshaven beard and unkempt appearance, and his gray robe was a little torn. It seemed that he was very different from the other warriors around him.

But even so, his employment price is not low.

In front of him, there was a half-foot-long signboard with several dazzling numbers clearly written on it:

Five thousand taels of gold!

Seeing this price, Wang Chong finally understood why no one wanted to sit with him. This one is really expensive and has no friends.

Compared with others, his employment price is more than ten times higher. I'm afraid many wealthy businessmen may not be able to afford him.

"It's him!"

Wang Chong looked at the wooden sign on the table and laughed. This one just appeared in this teahouse not long ago, and the price of five thousand taels of gold is not considered high.

After waiting for a while, Wang Chong knew that the person in front of him might not be at this price.

"Shen Hai, go get a jar of the best wine over here."

Wang Chong said.

"Yes, master."

Shen Hai quickly left in response. Wang Chong also stepped forward and walked towards the gray-robed warrior under his feet.

"Did you see the sign on the table? If you are the one, if you want to drink tea and wine, go there, you are not welcome here."

The voice of the grey-robed warrior was very deep, with a sense of alienation, and he was born to be aloof. He said unkind words in his mouth, but he didn't lift his head at all. He poured himself a drink, drinking the worst wine that cost a few copper coins a pot.

"I'm here to find you."

Wang Chong smiled slightly, raised his head and gave him a wink. Shen Hai understood, and slammed a few taels of golden pine wine on the table.

Shen Hai patted the mud seal lightly, and a pine forest-like aroma of wine immediately wafted out from it. The aroma is light and elegant, not overpowering, but has a special sweetness. One sip makes people feel refreshed, as if they suddenly came from the busy city. Among them, it is like being in a quiet mountain.

"I gave you this. It's a humble place. It's the best wine we could find!"

Wang Chong laughed.

This is what he said sincerely.

For those who are truly capable, Wang Chong has always been stingy. So the Hyderabad contract was only 90,000 taels of gold, but Wang Chong gave Aluojia and Aluo Nuo more than 100,000 taels of gold. The secret group of alchemists needed 200,000 taels of gold to become a peripheral shadow , but Wang Chong did not feel distressed.

As long as they are truly useful and talented, Wang Chong will be very generous.

Sixty-seven taels of gold for a jar of wine is already very expensive, but to Wang Chong, the person in front of him is far more expensive than this.

Let him drink six or seven taels of gold wine, it is wronged him.

Seeing the green pine wine on the table, the eyes of the middle-aged man in the gray robe finally became sober. Although his face was still indifferent, it was not as distant as before.

"Tell me in advance that my price is not low!"

"Five thousand taels of gold?"

"per month!"

The gray middle-aged man is humane.

"Know."

Wang Chong laughed. Five thousand taels of gold a month is 60,000 taels a year! Such a high price, I'm afraid those wealthy businessmen and tycoons will find it hard to accept.

And the aristocratic family has its own warriors, and it may be difficult for them to accept such a high price to hire an outsider.

But Wang Chong didn't care.

Five thousand taels a month and sixty thousand a year are high for others, but nothing to him. What Wang Chong needs most now is a real master!

Behind the wine table, the gray-robed middle-aged man finally showed a serious expression. In this teahouse for so long, most of them either ridiculed him or alienated him.

Wang Chong was the first and only person he met who actually came to hire him.

"Let me start by saying that my employment is conditional."

"you say."

"First, the hire fee must be paid in advance. I don't accept credit."

"Can."

Wang Chong nodded.

"Second, I don't accept orders. After accepting employment, I'm only responsible for your safety. I don't care about everything else."

"Also."

Wang Chong nodded again.

"Third, I don't accept restraint. After accepting the employment, I can go wherever I want, and you are not restricted. As long as your safety is guaranteed, it is my business whether you show up or not."

Before Wang Chong could speak, Shen Hai and Meng Long's expressions were ugly.

"Can."

Wang Chong nodded again.

"Fourth, if I want to leave. I can leave anytime!"

The gray-robed middle-aged man made the last point.

"Are you kidding, is that still called employment?"

"Five thousand taels of gold a month, you can show up whenever you want, and go wherever you want? How can there be such a thing in the world?"

Before Wang Chong could speak, Shen Hai and Meng Long couldn't bear it anymore. Where to hire warriors here, it's like inviting an uncle.

This doesn't work, that doesn't work, but the asking price is so outrageous. Does this person really treat others as fools?

The gray-robed middle-aged man didn't say anything, he just turned his head and looked at Wang Chong beside him.

"Young master, absolutely not! If you want to act like him, is it still hired? What if something happens? Isn't the money spent by the young master in vain?"

Shen Hai strongly objected. As soon as the voice fell, there was a burst of laughter behind him.

"Just know!"

"Why do you think we don't sit with him?"

"This bastard treats himself like a master! His eyes are high and his hands are low!"

"Now you know how powerful it is. You guys just like to find trouble for nothing!"

...

There was a burst of booing from behind, and Wang Chong and the others noticed it as soon as they entered. This scene was completely beyond their expectations.

"Masters, we have quite a few masters here. How about we chat."

There were also people who tried their best to hook up, wanting Wang Chong and others to hire them.

"Can."

When everyone was laughing, Wang Chong finally spoke. Just two words, but it seems to have infinite magic power.

In an instant, everything was quiet, and everyone looked at Wang Chong in surprise.

Even the gray-robed middle-aged man, who had been indifferent all this time, had a look of surprise in his eyes.

The third chapter is expected at ten o'clock!
