Chapter 176 The Four Stewards
It was autumn and it was drizzling.
The entire Nan'an County City is shrouded in white mist, and the bustling streets and alleys that have passed by have become deserted and desolate.
The ancient Dian Garden is the largest theater in the city. It is closed for less than three days from the beginning of the year to the end of the year every year, and almost every venue is full. There is no need to worry about selling tickets for stands. It is the most common place for high-ranking officials and nobles in this world who lack entertainment.
However, today, the boss of Gudianyuan under great pressure pushed all the guests, including the distinguished guests who had already made an appointment, to clear the venue, leaving a servant who should be called to listen to it.
The theater is actually not very different from the theater troupe, but the theater has a fixed performance occasion. If people from all over the country want to listen to the song, they can only go to a special theater to buy tickets.
The opera troupes are different. They travel around the world, from princes and nobles to the people in Guizhou. As long as they have money and channels, they can be invited to perform at designated occasions.
It is hard to say which one is better, but it is unquestionable that the troupe is more difficult. Therefore, for people in the troupe, it is the best thing to be able to sing in a fixed theater.
The ancient Dian Garden is the most famous place in Nan'an County. There are nine opera troupes on stage regularly. There are six famous actors who are popular in Jizhou alone, which shows its strength.
It is naturally not simple to clear the people who can make such a powerful Gudian Garden clear the market at the risk of losing customers. Even if they are down and out now, they still have the strength that the owner of Gudian Garden cannot refuse.
The ancient Dian Garden was painted gray-brown, and outside the extremely heavy gate, in the drizzle, several sharp objects stood up. The anxious man in yellow looked towards the long street from time to time, hoping and disappointing again and again.
"Look, the person is here."
One of the men with long faces had sharp eyes. When they saw a huge black shadow approaching in the white mist, their steps were messy. They knew that it must be the person they had made an appointment with by their master. They hurriedly ordered the people next to them and prepared to greet them.
Just opposite the gate of the ancient Dianyuan, Kong Wu's powerful sedan chairman was moving slowly and quickly in the drizzle and cool breeze.
Meng Zhao sat in the red-topped sedan chair in the middle without any bumps.
His eyes slightly closed, his fingers slightly tweaked the jade Buddhist beads, and he murmured something in a low voice. Occasionally, he could hear words such as "The gods guard the Kun Palace, and the fire transforms into qi... concentrate on the Qianding, and the yang qi gradually accumulates and thickens, crystal clear, and brightly up and down". It is obvious that he is studying the mind and martial arts.
A Vajra Bodhi Seed on his chest, strung with red lines, emits a cool air that makes people feel clear and clear. It keeps moving back and forth between his chest and Bodhi Seed, making his thoughts look like lightning and his spirit shine, as if he is several times smarter.
I have to say that with Vajra Bodhis, he was indeed as helpful as a god in studying martial arts. In the past, some places where he had only a few knowledges, but now he has carefully thought about it and has learned it even more.
When the sedan chair landed, the long and thick curtain in front of the sedan door was lifted up, bringing a gust of cold wind, which made his mind turn back from the martial arts world.
"The fourth young master, I've arrived in Gudian Park."
Meng Zhao opened his eyes and saw a slightly mediocre face, eyebrows, nose, lips, and each part seemed so mediocre, and it was even more mediocre when combined.
Note that this is completely different from Louis Koo's mediocre meaning, and there is really nothing surprising.
Putting it in a crowd is definitely the one that attracts the least attention.
However, facing this person, Meng Zhao did not dare to be negligent. He quickly bent out of the sedan door and said with concern,
"Uncle Yang, just ask your servant to notify me. How dare you trouble you to end up in person? It's a terrible disaster to Meng Zhao."
As soon as he walked out of the sedan chair, the man named Uncle Yang opened a painted colorful oil paper umbrella and placed it on top of Meng Zhao's head to prevent him from getting wet by the rain. At the same time,
"The fourth young master is serious. I am the main person in my family to protect the fourth young master to prevent Hu Baiwan from jumping over the wall. I dare not neglect it.
If you go in later, it is best for the fourth young master not to drink tea, snacks or something inside, so as not to get stuck."
Meng Zhao nodded, not feeling impatience because of this person's preaching, but instead showed a humble manner of being taught.
"I know, Uncle Yang doesn't worry."
Those who can be called uncle by Meng Zhao are naturally not simple characters, and those who have this status in the Meng family are rare.
As mentioned before, the Meng Mansion has four major butlers, the second butler Wang Tianlei and the third butler Liu Qiankun, all of whom are highly powerful and powerful. Yang Jiu is the last butler of the Meng family.
On the surface, they are the managers of two small chambers of commerce under the Meng family. They have more civil positions than military positions and have weak presence. They are far less powerful than Wang Tianlei and Liu Qiankun. Their visits are fearful.
However, in fact, he is the leader of the famous killer organization Meteor in Jizhou.
Yes, in addition to armed forces such as martial arts halls, escort agencies, and large and large gangs, the Meng family has also established and cultivated violent organizations that are specifically designed to make money by killing people. It has been established for nearly a hundred years. Yang Jiu is the helm of the latest meteor.
When Meng Zhao first learned about this, he was dizzy.
In terms of force, the Meng family is really very careful.
The position of General Meng Jizu's military commander can directly mobilize 40,000 elite troops of the Northern Third Battalion of Jizhou. The Meng family owns the martial arts center, escort bureau, and gang armed forces, which are spread all over Jizhou, with countless people.
This is enough to make you afraid of it. As a result, there is another killer organization that has been established for hundreds of years. It is a golden sign. I really don’t know what the ancestors of the Meng family thought.
If one day it was revealed that the Meng family had a deep connection with a certain evil demon, Meng Zhao would probably not be surprised.
Let’s talk about meteors.
All killer organizations are notorious, and customers pay, they are responsible for killing people. No matter good or bad, good or bad, or identity background, they only have money first.
The same is true for the name of meteors. In Jizhou, it is in the three-legged equine with the dark sun and the lone wolf. It is the existence that the nobles hate, fear, yearn for and expect the most.
According to legend, as long as the money given is enough, even if it is a master, the three major killer organizations dare to send people to assassinate.
Of course, in today's era, even if you search through the entire Da Yong Dynasty, you can't find someone who can afford such a price.
It is beyond doubt that Yang Jiu's ability and loyalty can be the leader of the killer organization and help the Meng family manage such an important violent organization.
Few people know his identity.
Only Meng Jizu, Meng Hongdao, and Meng Zhao knew about the entire Meng family. Perhaps the other butlers had some guesses, but they were just speculations.
From this we can also see that Meng Jizu and Meng Hongdao have already consciously cultivated Meng Zhao, and his position will inevitably be indispensable in the core level of the Meng family in the future.
However, Meng Zhao has more than that. Therefore, although he did not deliberately please him, he always showed his best side when facing this killer organization boss who appears to be harmless but is actually full of blood.
There is a saying that goes, the king chooses his ministers, and the ministers also chooses his kings.
