After listening to Du Qi's words, Xiao Yuanqi was silent. He also knew his situation.
Was he willing to be a bandit all the time?
Of course not!
But Xiao Yuanqi's heart was uneasy. Now on Mount Hengniu, he could do whatever he wanted. At least he didn't lack food and clothing. At least he didn't have to worry about food and clothing. However, if something happened after they left the mountain, or if the final situation was different from what Du Qi had said, then it would be bad.
Seeing Xiao Yuanqi's hesitation, Du Qi knew it was still not enough. But at this time, Xiao Yuanqi was already moved.
It was not difficult to persuade Xiao Yuanqi!
Du Qi continued, "Chief, if you are willing to go down the mountain and assist my father, I can't guarantee that you will be promoted. But I can guarantee that at least you won't have to worry about food and clothing, and you will have something to do. "
"My father, as the Deputy State Supervisor of the third grade, needs to recruit aides and arrange corresponding assistants."
"So, I can arrange for you to enter the officialdom."
Du Qi said, "As for your subordinates, they can all enter the system together. They will no longer be the bandit of Mount Hengniu that everyone despises, but an official that everyone admires."
Xiao Yuanqi was thinking after hearing this.
In fact, he didn't want to enter the officialdom.
Because of Xiao Yuanqi's nature, even if he was rough on the outside, even if he was capable, he was quite impatient. He was not a person who could survive in the officialdom.
Such a temperament was not suitable to be an official.
Xiao Yuanqi thought for a while, finally gritted his teeth and made a decision. But before he told Du Qi, he said, "Young Master Du, this is a serious matter. I have to gather my subordinates to discuss it. Young Master Du, please go to the side room and have a rest. I will gather my subordinates to discuss it, and then I will give you an answer. How about that? "
"No problem!"
Du Qi nodded.
At this point, Du Qi believed that Xiao Yuanqi had wavered, and even made a decision.
Du Qi turned around and went down. Under the bandit's lead, he went to the side room to have a rest. Xiao Yuan Qi, on the other hand, arranged for people to call the main generals under his command.
Facing his brothers, Xiao Yuanqi didn't beat around the bush. He got straight to the point and told them that Du Qi had come to the mountain and that Du Qi was going to recruit them down the mountain.
In the end, Xiao Yuanqi said, "Du Qi came to recruit us. What do you think?"
"Boss, what do you think?"
Someone spoke from the crowd below.
Hearing this, the others agreed because they were all Xiao Yuan Qi's brothers and were willing to trust him.
Xiao Yuan Qi said seriously, "When I was talking with Du Qi earlier, we talked about one thing. That is, the Wang family asked us to kill him. Du Qi's expression did not change. "Once he is killed, there will be no place for us in the Tang dynasty." I refuted Du Qi before, but I was rejected by Du Qi one by one. Moreover, what Du Qi refuted was indeed reasonable. "
Immediately, Xiao Yuan Qi said something that Du Qi refuted. Hearing this, the others all nodded in agreement. Because they all knew Du Qi's influence in the Tang dynasty.
If they really killed Du Qi, the Tang dynasty would never let it go. They would definitely be hunted down by the imperial court.
Xiao Yuan Qi continued, "Du Qi is recruiting us because his father, Du Ruhui, is going to Daizhou to be the governor of Daizhou. He wants us to help him. After we go down the mountain, we can all be officials. Do you want to stay on the mountain or go down the mountain? "
Hearing this, the others all started to discuss.
After a long discussion, they finally reached a consensus and all chose to go down the mountain.
Hearing this, Xiao Yuan Qi felt relieved.
It was good that everyone was willing to go down the mountain. Besides, they all reached a consensus, which meant that Xiao Yuan Qi would not encounter any disagreements and would not be in a dilemma.
Xiao Yuan Qi said, "Now that everyone has reached a consensus, we have decided to go down the mountain. But right now, I have one concern. "
Someone asked, "Boss, what's your concern?"
The rest of the people chimed in.
Xiao Yuan Qi said, "What Du Qi said before was that we should go down the mountain and follow Du Ruhui, and become his people. In this case, we can all be officials. "
"Although it's just a palm-sized position, it's still an official. But I've considered that we are all straightforward people, and it's hard for us to get along in the officialdom. "
"So, I have another plan, which is that we can follow Du Qi."
"Although Du Qi is just a county official who founded the country and has no official position, it's not bad to follow Du Qi. After all, Du Qi is not as bad as Du Ruhui. But there's also a problem if we follow Du Qi. That is, we're all nobodies, and we're just going down the mountain to follow Du Qi. "
Xiao Yuan Qi said, "I'm a little hesitant about these two choices. Which one do you want to choose? "
Hearing this, everyone was a little hesitant.
They all trusted Xiao Yuan Qi and his judgment. If even Xiao Yuan Qi couldn't make a decision, then they were also hesitant.
Someone else said, "Boss, we'll follow whatever you choose. We have a lot of brothers, and we'll follow you. It doesn't matter if we're nobodies or nobodies. As long as we follow you, there's no problem. "
"Yes, just follow you."
"We're willing to follow you. We don't care what position we're going to be."
"Boss, you decide."
…
One by one, they all spoke with a solemn look on their faces. They were all willing to believe Xiao Yuan Qi and his judgment. After all, they were all Xiao Yuan Qi's men.
Seeing this, Xiao Yuan Qi was moved.
He raised his hand and the others stopped talking. Pairs of eyes fell on Xiao Yuan Qi again.
At this time, Xiao Yuan Qi said again, "Since you're willing to believe me, I won't talk nonsense. My plan is to follow Du Qi. Although we don't have an official position, at least we don't have to worry about food and clothing, and can do things honestly. "
"If we follow Du Qi, we won't have to worry about food and clothing. That's enough!"
"What's more, Du Qi is in need of people now. I believe that following Du Qi won't be a bad choice. After all, although Du Qi is young now, the ability he has shown is far beyond Du Qi's. "
Xiao Yuan Qi said, "That's my plan."
Hearing this, the others all agreed.
They didn't have to hesitate anymore. After all, now that there was a chance to wash away the banditry on them, they were naturally happy to do it.
Xiao Yuan Qi didn't say anything more after making the decision. He immediately asked someone to call Du Qi over. And this time, he didn't ask them to leave. Instead, he asked them to stay here.
Not long after, Du Qi came in.
Du Qi was now more than 160 centimeters tall. He was thin and didn't look weak. He faced the crowd and smiled faintly, saying, "Boss and brothers, I think you've already discussed it well. I wonder what the First Master thinks about this? "
Xiao Yuan Qi said in a deep voice, "All of us are willing to go down the mountain. But there are preconditions for us to go down the mountain. "
Du Qi said, "What conditions?"
Xiao Yuan Qi said seriously, "We go down the mountain, not to follow your father Du Ruhui, but to follow Young Master Du. After we go down the mountain, we will follow Young Master Du and work for him. If Young Master Du is willing, it's settled. If Young Master Du isn't willing, it's over. "
Pairs of eyes fell on Du Qi.
They were all waiting for Du Qi's decision.
Du Qi smiled and said, "It's my honor that you're willing to follow me and believe in me. If you're willing to follow me, I have no objection. It's settled. I wonder, when will Boss follow me down the mountain? "
Xiao Yuanqi said, "I need one or two days to pack and arrange everything on the mountain."
"No problem!"
Du Qi said, "These two days, I'll stay on the mountain. On the one hand, I'll wait for my father to come. On the other hand, I'll wait for Boss's arrangement. "
Xiao Yuan Qi and the others were willing.
Du Qi was willing to stay, not because he looked down on them, but because he respected them.
Xiao Yuan Qi changed the topic, "Young Master Du, the Wang family asked me to deal with you. Even if I'm not here, I'm afraid there will be someone else. Young Master Du, the Wang family won't let it go. How do you plan to deal with it? "
Du Qi said, "I'll deal with it as it comes. There's nothing to be afraid of. I'll deal with it for now. When we arrive at Daizhou and settle down there, I'll think about other things. "
Xiao Yuan Qi nodded and didn't say anything more.
Now that they had surrendered, Xiao Yuan Qi's subordinates were no longer restrained. Some asked about the Romance of the Three Kingdoms and the Investiture of the Gods, some asked about the Yanmen Pass battle and so on.
