Chapter 10 Fighters and Followers
Bliss' eyes were red and his face was blue. He was squatting on the edge of the flower bed in front of the Green couple's house, his body was still shaking slightly, and there was some water on his clothes. It seemed that this brat from Brape was waiting downstairs. Almost the whole night, the weather is slowly entering autumn now, even if Bliss is a young man in his thirties, it is not so easy to stay up all night outside.
Seeing Zhang Tie come out, Bliss stood up, walked over, knelt down in front of Zhang Tie, looked at Zhang Tie with tears in his eyes, "I will always obey you from now on, I will do whatever you tell me to do!"
After Bliss went back last night, he didn't even dare to go home. He hid outside for most of the night. Originally, he wanted to leave Brape right away, but after leaving this familiar place, and the chaos outside, he didn't want to. Knowing where he can go and what he can do, and if he stays in Brape, Bliss knows that as long as those people's legs heal last night, what awaits him is a doomed tragic end. After much deliberation, Bliss realized that his only way out was the place where he picked up the iron rod last night. Among all the people he knew, the young officer who sent him to hell with a single sentence was his only one. where the hope lies.
Since that person can let him die at any time, then he can also let him live at any time. He has nowhere to go.
For Zhang Tie, after what happened last night, he has an instinctive fear. Hooligans need to use a knife to kill, but Zhang Tie only needs to use his mouth to kill. He naturally knows who is more powerful.
"It seems that you are not too stupid, do you understand?" Zhang Tie asked him.
As soon as Zhang Tie opened his mouth, Bliss' awe of Zhang Tie increased by another level. It turned out that this person already knew what he was going to do. Bliss swallowed and nodded.
"Then come with me!" Zhang Tie walked towards the alley. Bliss quickly stood up and followed behind Zhang Tie.
...
Zhang Tie went to a restaurant in the neighborhood to have breakfast, and Zhang Tie also ordered a breakfast for Bliss, as well as a glass of warming brandy, which made Bliss feel flattered, even though he was sitting at the same table with Zhang Tie. But Bliss is as obedient as a primary school student, no matter whether it is drinking or eating, he dare not make a sound.
Zhang Tie ate his food on his own, neither talking nor looking at Bliss. It was only after breakfast that he wiped his mouth with a paper towel and put down the knife and fork in his hand.
Seeing Zhang Tie put down the knife and fork, Bliss, who didn't dare to make a sound, quickly swallowed the food in his mouth and put down the knife and fork. With both hands on his knees, he obediently listened to Zhang Tie's speech.
Zhang Tie's age is less than half his, but in front of Zhang Tie,
Bliss is as well-behaved as a rabbit in front of a tiger.
"Your name……"
"My name is Bliss..." As soon as Zhang Tie opened his mouth, Bliss was afraid of being slow to answer, so he rushed back.
"Yeah!" Zhang Tie glanced at him casually, "I told you to beat me up last night. How much did that guy promise to give you?"
"Two... two gold coins!" Mentioning what happened last night, Bliss wriggled on his chair a little uneasy. If that bastard Bais wanted to trouble a Norman Empire officer, he would kill them. , They didn't dare to come, it's bad luck for that bastard Bai Si, who didn't even know the identity of others, but wanted to show off his prestige, and everyone was killed by that person.
Two gold coins? Zhang Tie was slightly stunned. Last night there were at least a dozen gangsters. Did these guys work hard for two gold coins? Think so. Zhang Tiecai found that his mentality was a little different from before, especially when it came to money.
Two gold coins are just a small amount of money to Zhang Tie now, but to these little people living at the bottom, it is a lot of money, if you count carefully. If beating yourself can get everyone more than ten silver coins, why don't these people come? More than ten silver coins are not a small amount to the villagers of Chefli Village and these gangsters. Isn't it also joyful to get two silver coins after being beaten up by the fat man a few months ago? At that time, in order to save a few copper coins, I was even reluctant to take the bus when I was going to school. How is it like now?
Zhang Tie, who was slightly recalling his previous life, froze for a moment, and when Zhang Tie came to his senses, half a minute had passed, and Bliss looked at him nervously, not daring to speak, perhaps worried that he was getting angry.
"Don't be nervous, I just remembered something from the past!" Zhang Tie smiled and comforted Bliss, "Do you know what you are going to do now?"
"No... I don't know!" After saying this, Bliss added another sentence flatteringly, "I will do whatever you ask me to do?"
"Go to Bai Si and get back the money you worked so hard for!"
"Ah..." Bliss opened his mouth in astonishment, never thinking that Zhang Tie asked him to do this.
"But it's not two gold coins, but twenty gold coins. You go to Bai Si and tell him that this is the price for someone to beat me up. I let you go, and he will definitely give you the money!" Zhang Tie took a sip of juice leisurely.
Bliss suppressed the shock in his heart, swallowed again, "Do you want me to get the money back for you?"
Zhang Tie laughed, and looked at Bliss playfully, "Do you think I'm the kind of person who would beat people up with such things, or am I really short of these twenty gold coins?"
"Oh, no, of course not, I'm just, I'm just..." There was a thin patch of sweat on the forehead of the eager Bliss.
Zhang Tie interrupted his explanation, "No need to explain, I know what you want to say, I don't need this money, this money is for you, this money is arranged by you, you take this money, Go to those companions whose legs were broken by you last night. This money is considered as their medical expenses and settlement expenses during this period. Tell them that you are doing things for me now and let them follow you. Such a simple thing does not require me Let me teach you!"
There was a burst of red light on Bliss's face, and then he thought of something, and the red light on his face dimmed again, "Then...boss, boss...what should I do?"
"Boss?" Zhang Tie didn't understand what Bliss meant for a moment, and when he heard the word "boss," Zhang Tie immediately thought of Reinhardt.
"It's the guy who rushed at you first last night, the one with the nose ring, he's the boss of us, his name is..."
Seeing the mocking look in Zhang Tie's eyes, Bliss's voice gradually decreased, and finally he didn't dare to look at Zhang Tie at all...
Zhang Tie didn't say anything, just looked at Bliss quietly. Bliss felt as if he was sitting on pins and needles. After being watched by Zhang Tie's silent gaze for more than ten seconds, Bliss gritted his teeth and drank the brandy in front of him in one gulp. "I know what to do..."
A few minutes later, Bliss left the restaurant. Before leaving, Zhang Tie explained to him the secret contact information between the two, and asked him to inquire about Brape's arrest of those Sun Gods recently. Messages of lurkers and dangerous elements.
After what happened last night, Zhang Tie found that he was too weak in Brape. This is not Heiyan City. He can still have many friends and brothers, and he can take care of each other. Last night, If Mr. Green hadn't come out to remind him quietly, maybe he would have suffered a big loss under the hands of these gangsters. Judging from the performance last night, among those gangsters, there were two people of the second level and three people. There is one, and the others are all first-level characters. On the premise that the chain of bondage cannot be used, if you are besieged by these people with your current body, you might really suffer...
Feeling the crisis, Zhang Tie made arrangements for the next scene last night. These guys may not be able to do anything big, but if they can be caught, sometimes they can do a little favor for themselves, so that they have a few to command. The people who are so good at this will not make such a joke that other people can just find a group of people to show themselves some color by paying two gold coins.
These people are all unemployed in Brape. They usually hang out in several beer hotels and low-level entertainment venues in Brape. They make a living by charging a little viewing fee and occasionally solving small troubles for others. Their lives are poor. It's unbearable, I can barely get enough food and clothing, and I belong to the kind of gangster who may use a knife with others at any time for a few dozen coppers and a little quarrel, and then send his life away, just like last night. The business of two gold coins is the biggest business they have received in the past six months. The money these people earn in a month may not be enough to buy a pond of earthworms in Chevri Village.
Gathering such a group of subordinates, as long as you throw two or three gold coins to them every month, you can make these people obediently do things one by one, even if it is more than a dozen low-level thugs, running errands is no problem, right? Is he still short of two or three gold coins every month?
...
The atmosphere in Brape is still not slack today. The number of soldiers standing guard and on duty in the whole city is no less than yesterday. Zhang Tie thought that maybe the fact that he killed those people last night has not been discovered, so the city’s vigilance has not yet been lifted. Relax.
Zhang Tie showed his face in the equipment department again today, hitting the clock for a day. Whether it was communicating with Second Lieutenant Pepin or taking off his military uniform and lying on the ground in the maintenance workshop to learn the skills of repairing cars, Zhang Tie felt that he could do it. Allow yourself to learn a lot.
Meeting such an officer who loves to learn, has no airs, and can chat with everyone, the experienced technical non-commissioned officers in the equipment department all surrounded Zhang Tie, pouring out their experience and skills in repairing various vehicles teach. In this way, on the one hand, the most experienced people are teaching, and on the other hand, there are a lot of ready-made vehicles with various problems in front of Zhang Tie. Combining theory with practice, Zhang Tie learned a lot here in a day. There are more things that many people can learn in school in one month.
