Although the property that Dan Jiahao bought in Shen Jiang was not big, and its location had nothing to do with the city, the down payment still made his heart ache. However, his action did surprise his brother, Dan Hongning, a little. He was surprised that his brother, who used to be immature, had grown so much. At least his decision was a sign of maturity.
"This kid is not bad. There aren't many young people who can make progress like this. At least he has the courage to take responsibility. " Lu Feng also appreciated Dan Jiahao's approach. He smiled and said to Lu Wenyi, "At least I dare say that 99% of the young people in Hua Xia rely on their parents to get married and buy a house. Even if their parents are just ordinary people, they will still choose to rely on them instead of relying on themselves."
Dan Jiahao's face turned red. "Don't praise me anymore. If you praise me again, I'll fly to the sky. I can be where I am today all because of Brother Yun. If he didn't support me at that time and give me a job as a security guard at the Medicinal Cuisine Hotel, and also give me the opportunity to manage the hotel, I wouldn't have been able to earn so much money to pay the down payment. Besides, I dared to buy a house because I know that if I follow Brother Yun, I won't be so poor that I can't even pay the loan. Otherwise, I wouldn't be so bold. "
"Is there anything worse than following me now? Today, I almost made you all lose your lives." Xu Yun said helplessly, "You're just confident in yourself. As long as you know how to shoulder your responsibilities, you'll be able to stand out no matter where you are. Even without me, I believe you'll still be able to live well."
"Without you, I would still be a gangster in a small county in Hedong." Dan Jiahao shook his head vigorously. "No, I should say that I'm just a small gangster. There's a world of difference between me and my brother, these big gangsters. Not to mention a house, even buying a car would take a lot of effort."
While everyone was chatting in the living room, they were slowly recovering from the frightening battle that had just taken place. No one wanted to think about what had just happened.
In the bedroom, Chou Yeon and Qin Wan 'er also slowly comforted the frightened Guoguo and Ruan Qingshuang. Compared to the past, Ruan Qingshuang's tolerance had improved a lot. In the past, she would be so scared that she couldn't sleep at night because of the fight between Xu Yun and a few gangsters in front of the medicinal cuisine restaurant. But now, she could learn to be calm after experiencing such a big storm.
"Who were those people?" Seeing that Guoguo had fallen asleep, Bu Feifan raised his doubts. "Aunt Shuang, what kind of trouble did you get yourself into?"
Ruan Qingshuang gently patted Bu Feifan's shoulder. "Children shouldn't worry about these things. Don't worry, everything will pass. Just don't go to school when school starts this time. I'll help you call the head teacher to ask for leave. "
Bu Feifan didn't care if Gu Xijiu could go to school or not. He didn't like school to begin with. What he wanted to know was who wanted to hurt Guoguo! He definitely wouldn't allow it! However, Bu Feifan knew very well that he alone was not enough to protect others. He was the one being protected. In the face of such danger today, he had no power to fight back at all. If Lil Dongbei had not stepped forward bravely, he would have been dead.
"Wan 'er, I know you're the most conflicted person right now." Chou Yeon said faintly, "There are some things I don't know how to explain to you. But … the police really don't have the ability to deal with people who want to harm us."
Qin Wan 'er nodded. Compared to before, she had learned what to do and what not to do. "I understand. You really don't have to worry about me. Just take care of Sister Shuang."
…
"Little Dongbei, let's talk?" Xu Yun was in the kitchen. Seeing that Little Dongbei was making supper for everyone with limited ingredients, he walked behind him.
Bai Liang turned around and saw Xu Yun. He immediately nodded and said, "Boss Xu … No, Brother Yun, if you have any orders, just tell me."
"You're so agile. Does your family know about it?" Xu Yun asked.
Bai Liang shook his head at Xu Yun as he served the supper. "My family doesn't know. I don't have the chance to show off in front of them."
"What does your family do?" Xu Yun was curious.
"My father is a pig butcher. Regardless of whether it's in the mountains or in the town, if anyone wants to kill a pig, they'll invite him. Although the money isn't much, my family lives well. We have pig head meat for every meal. " Bai Liang seemed quite satisfied. "My father doesn't have high expectations. As long as he can have pig head meat for every meal and drink some wine, that's enough."
"How did you come to Shen Jiang?" Xu Yun continued to ask. Of course, a pig butcher couldn't have taught his son to be so skilled. There must be someone else behind Bai Liang. This kid from the mountains must have his own story.
Bai Liang sighed. "Brother Yun, that's a long story. I dropped out of school when I was fourteen. It wasn't because my family didn't have the money to go to school, but because I didn't want to. To punish me, my father made me chop firewood in the mountains and sell it in town. This work isn't for humans. Firewood isn't worth much. Even if I work myself to death, I can only earn a few yuan a day. I want to learn how to kill pigs, but my father won't teach me. "
Xu Yun couldn't help but laugh. "You still want to pass on your father's skills and cultivate your Bai family into a family of pig butchers."
"It's not that I didn't have that thought." Bai Liang chuckled. "Later on, I really came across an opportunity."
Xu Yun knew that the main point was coming. He nodded and signaled for Bai Liang to continue.
"I met an old man in the mountains. The old man said that as long as I brought him two taels of pig head meat and a bottle of wine every day, he would teach me a set of pig butcher knife skills. I said, do you need to learn knife skills to kill pigs? When my father killed pigs, he knocked them out with a club and stabbed them in the neck to let them bleed. But the old man told me that the knife skills he taught me could not only kill domestic pigs, but wild boars as well. " Bai Liang laughed foolishly. "If it were now, I wouldn't believe him. But at that time, I was still young and immediately kowtowed to him. For the next two years, I stole pig head meat and wine from home every day. Just to learn how to kill wild boars. "
Xu Yun knew that Little Dongbei was lucky to have met an expert. To be able to train a child to such a level in just two years, he definitely wasn't an ordinary person! Although Little Dongbei didn't train his state of mind, he was able to kill those three experts with just his quick movements. This showed that the old man he spoke of was definitely a very powerful person.
"Then what was his name?" Xu Yun asked.
Bai Liang shook his head. "I asked, but he didn't say. He told me to just call him old man. I called him old man, and he called me Little Dongbei. I stole pig head meat and wine for him for two years, and he taught me knife skills for two years. "
"And then? Why didn't he continue to teach you? "Xu Yun continued asking.
"My dad found out that I stole wine and meat," Bai Liang said helplessly. Bai Liang helplessly said, "Then I could only confess everything that I needed to confess. My father felt that I had met a swindler who was trying to cheat me of the pig head meat, so he didn't let me go out to the mountains. In the past two years, I had indeed stolen too much pig head meat and sorghum wine from home. My father calculated for me and was shocked. In the past two years, I had stolen nearly 150 catties of pig head meat and 280 catties of sorghum wine!"
Without Xu Yun asking again, Little Dongbei took a deep breath and continued, "My dad beat me up and then locked me up for a week without letting me go out. Later, I seized the opportunity when he went to the county to kill pigs and ran out. I was going to the mountains to find the old man and ask him what happened. In the end, I couldn't find him. On the way home, I was really unlucky. I actually met a wild boar. Usually, when the old man was around, I couldn't find a wild boar to practice with. Now that the old man was gone, the wild boar appeared. I was really scared at that time. "
"In the end, you still killed the wild boar?" Xu Yun was really surprised. A teenager killing a wild boar. If it wasn't for the guidance of an expert for two years, the wild boar would have pierced hundreds of big holes in his body.
Bai Liang didn't deny it. "Yes, I had no choice. I could only fight. It was my first time killing a wild boar. After I dragged the beast home, I weighed it and found that it was 600 kilograms! When my dad came back, he didn't believe that I killed the wild boar. He thought that even if it was a dead wild boar, it would be impossible for me to drag it back. "
Xu Yun smiled bitterly. If he was his father, he wouldn't believe it either. A 600 kilogram dead wild boar! How much strength did it take to drag it back home?
"After that, my dad thought that my brain was damaged. Coincidentally, my uncle was a construction worker in Shen Jiang. My dad asked my uncle to bring me to the big city to learn how to cook. He felt that no matter how bad a chef was, he wouldn't starve." Bai Liang said it very casually. "Then, my uncle asked his boss's boss for help. The boss was in a good mood that day and introduced me to Xingkai Hotel to be an apprentice."
When this kid first arrived at Xingkai Hotel, he must have been very excited.
"Sigh, it's a pity that good people don't live long. My uncle was such a good person, but he fell to his death in a construction accident a few months ago." Bai Liang shook his head helplessly. His expression was a little sad.
Xu Yun didn't know how to comfort him. He could only pat him. "That was just an accident. No matter what, good people always live longer than bad people."
"Brother Yun, I was really scared today. I was really afraid that I would kill people to save everyone … and then the 'organization' would shoot me …" Bai Liang exhaled. "To be honest, I didn't feel anything when I killed the three people today because I felt that they didn't have any human aura. They were similar to animals like wild boars. Other than killing intent, there was only killing intent. I was forced to do it."
"The 'organization' has already forgiven you." Xu Yun smiled. "I can see that you're not a bad person. I also believe that you definitely don't want to do something like killing people. The three people you killed today all had a blood debt on their hands. What you did was just to make them pay with their blood. "
Bai Liang smiled slightly. "Brother Yun, I'm going to follow you in this life. I really like chatting with you. Why do I feel so relaxed when chatting with you! Brother, you're a good person. In the future, I'll do whatever you ask me to do. I'll listen to you! "
"Little Dongbei, how's the preparation of our supper? We've prepared the wine. We're just waiting to toast to you and thank you! "Dan Jiahao hurried over from the living room.
Bai Liang pointed at the simple supper prepared and said, "You only have these things at home. I'm just an apprentice. Can I just make do with it?"
"Okay! This is already very sumptuous! It doesn't matter what we eat. What's important is that we have to thank you for your righteous actions today! " Dan Jiahao smiled as he helped Bai Liang pick up the not-so-sumptuous supper. "All of us owe you our lives. From now on, you're our brother. Even though you're still young, we still have to give you a proper toast. Brother Yun, go sit. We can't let you carry the dishes! Wenyi, come over and take the dishes from Brother Yun's hands! Why are you so blind?! "
