Cao Thief

Chapter 79 Cao Ji's Worries

The rain keeps falling.

The rainwater fell down along the eaves, forming a water curtain... The water droplets hit the gray stone, and the water splashed everywhere.Cao Peng sat quietly on the threshold of the Daxiong Palace, looking at the blurry world outside, but his soul had already left his body, and he didn't know where he was going.

A big hand patted on his shoulder.

Cao Peng was shocked and looked up, only to see Cao Ji sitting beside him at some point.

"What do you think?"

Cao Peng turned his head and glanced into the Daxiong Palace.Cao Nan was still sound asleep, Mrs. Zhang and Mrs. Hong were beside her, whispering.Dian Wei, Wei Yan, and Xia Houlan sat under the statue with their eyes closed and meditated.Deng Juye was boiling water, while Deng Fan and Wang Mai sat together.Deng Fan looked enviously at the iron halberd and snake spear in Wang Mai's hand, very envious.Wang Mai was silently wiping blood from the gunshot wound.

Deng Ji also came over.

The three sat side by side on the threshold, looking at the blurred world in the rain.

"I didn't think of anything."

"But do you think I shouldn't let you lower your status?"

Cao Peng was startled, but did not speak.In fact, it's okay for him to call Dian Wei 'uncle'.After all, Dian Wei's age is kept there, even if he calls him 'uncle', he won't die.But Deng Ji nodded, feeling that doing so would be a bit of a loss of status.

"When we arrived in Xudu, besides Brother Dian, do you know anyone else?"

Deng Ji shook his head, "I don't know."

Cao Ji lowered his voice a bit, "Uncle and grandson, you are scholars, I know you are serious about character. But this world can't be controlled by others... After we arrived in Xudu, we didn't know each other very well. Except Brother Dian, we didn't know anyone else. People. Brothers Peng'er and Dian have the grace to save lives. I don't know how long this kindness can last, but I think it can't last as long as your Uncle Meng..."

Deng Ji frowned, and although he was reluctant to admit it, he could only nod.

"In this world, there is no kindness that can last forever. Brother Dian can help us stand firm and give you a future... What about the future? When he repays this kindness, he will continue to help us and protect us Ah Fu is young, uncle and grandson with your body...we can't compare to that brother Wei. He has good skills, and he can always come out ahead as long as he is recommended.

Friends, uncles and grandchildren... You have to remember that this favor is hard to last.If you have the intention of asking for repayment, no matter how great your kindness is, it will not be able to withstand the use of our big family. "

Thinking about it carefully, it seems that there are indeed more people in the family.

Not to mention the five members of Cao Peng and Deng Ji, there are also three members of Deng Juye's family, plus Wang Meng and his son, this is ten people.

Cao Ji's worry was not unreasonable.

The ten people ate, drank and lazed, and they really had to rely on Dian Wei's support at the beginning.

That's right, Cao Peng saved Dian Wei's life.But Dian Wei also has the kindness to save Cao Ji's family of three.Counting the resettlement of ten people, Dian Wei may not owe Cao Peng any kindness.If it doesn't work out, Cao Peng will do the opposite and owe Dian Wei's love... If the favor is too much, the favor will disappear.With so many people in Lao Cao's family, how would they survive without Dian Wei's favor?

Cao Peng suddenly understood Cao Ji's intentions.

This is a kind of low-level society, the wisdom of small people.

Don't underestimate Cao Peng's "uncle". With such a title, Dian Wei will not stand idly by when Cao Peng and Deng Ji encounter problems in the future.

In fact, even Cao Peng didn't know what kind of character Dian Wei had.

His understanding of Dian Wei is more derived from the Romance of the Three Kingdoms.And what kind of person is Dian Wei in real life?
Cao Peng is also not sure...

That's right, despite the size of my family, it's really not as easy as Wei Yan alone.

He is good at martial arts, not to mention anything else, Dian Wei's arrangement of him into the Guards is just a matter of one sentence.But how should people like myself be settled?Deng Ji lost an arm, and Cao Peng was young and weak.Wang Mai can have a good future, but the question is, can the family always rely on Wang Mai?Through a change of address, Cao Ji allowed Dianwei and Cao Peng's family to have a long-term relationship.

Who said Cao Ji didn't know how to be flexible?
Who said Cao Ji was just a reckless man?
At this time, Cao Peng felt that the old man was really smart!
"Father, what are you afraid of?" Although he understood Cao Ji's intentions, Cao Peng still wanted to comfort Cao Ji.Otherwise, the pressure in Cao Ji's heart will be great... He said softly: "Father, you are also capable. It's just that your ability is different from Brother Wei and the others. Brother Wei and the others can go to battle and kill the enemy. But Dad, you can forge high-quality weapons... To put it bluntly, they will have to beg you in the future. Let's settle down in Xudu, and we don't need to bother Dian... Uncle. You have this skill, I'm afraid you will be hungry Is it untenable? Besides, the boy has come up with some gadgets along the way, which will definitely make us stand firm."

"stuff?"

"What gadget?"

Deng Ji and Cao Ji couldn't help showing curiosity.

"Hey, some gadgets that might make daddy famous."

Cao Ji still trusts Cao Peng.

But after hearing what he said, I couldn't help laughing, "Peng'er, with this ability, Dad doesn't want to have a future! If you can really come up with a good idea, you might as well help your brother-in-law. He reads a lot and has a lot of knowledge." Knowledge is better than me, an illiterate blacksmith."

Deng Ji lost an arm, which was a troublesome matter after all.

When Cao Peng heard this, he shook his head, turned to look at Deng Ji and said, "Brother-in-law, do you want my help?"

Deng Ji chuckled, "Just take care of yourself. When you get to Xudu, don't cause trouble. I can settle my own affairs."

After this series of changes, although Deng Ji lost an arm, he became more confident and composed.

Cao Peng tilted his head, "Father, look, brother-in-law doesn't want my help. And I believe that brother-in-law can make a good future without my help. Besides, the method I think of is only useful for you, not brother-in-law... …Hehe, dad, you don’t need to underestimate yourself. What’s wrong with being a hero? If you don’t fight a hero, it’s okay for Brother Wei or Dian… Uncle, don’t you have to go into battle with your bare hands? Besides, you are really good at fighting with a knife. That dragon sparrow, although it had a good foundation before, but without your masterful hand to rejuvenate, it is probably a piece of scrap iron. Brother Wei also said that the dragon sparrow you repaired, even if it is not a magic weapon, it can catch up with a precious sword."

"But that's not you..."

"Father, I just gave you an idea, but I don't have that kind of ability.

Among other things, we have the bellows in our hands, and the double liquid, with these two things, Dad can be a supervisor of the Shaofu... Brother-in-law, what do you think? "

Deng Ji nodded again and again, "Ah Fu's words are not bad."

Cao Ji looked at Cao Peng with a bewildered expression, and stammered, asking: "Well, what kind of house... did it, what did it do?"

"It is supervised by the Shaofu!" Deng Ji explained with a smile: "The Shaofu is one of the nine ministers. It is in charge of royal clothes, treasures, precious meals, income from mountains, seas and land, as well as handicrafts and other affairs under its jurisdiction. There are five departments and three supervisors. Among them, Zhuyejian is dedicated to making weapons for soldiers and farmers. Supervisor is an official position under Zhuyejian, and there are four people in total, with a rank of [-] stones."

Cao Ji swallowed involuntarily!
"Isn't that the same as the Sashi you were before?"

Deng Ji smiled and said, "Father, how could it be the same? I am a rank ratio of one hundred stones, but the supervisor is a rank of one hundred stones. And one is a small official in the county town, and the other is an official under the nine officials of the imperial court. .Father, you can distinguish clearly, the supervisor is an official, and the Zuo Shi is an official."

Cao Ji gasped suddenly.

"Friend, you want me to be an official?"

"is it not OK?"

"My ability..."

"Father, whoever dares to say that you have no skills, I will beat him to death. Uncle Meng also said that you have skills, but sometimes you are too stubborn and too careful. You always look forward and backward in everything, how can you fight for the future? Dad , I hope that in the future, you will not only be a supervisor, but also a supervisor, a supervisor, a young supervisor, and even a young mansion... In this world, as long as you think about it, some things can be done...

At that time, the father will be the nine princes, and the child will be able to enjoy some glory, at least he can have a good family background, don't you think? "

That's right, that's the truth.

But Cao Ji felt a little dazed!

Shaofu, Jiuqing?
Now that people like myself don't even have a place to stay, this kid actually wants me to be a Shaofu?
Even Deng Ji couldn't help laughing...but he had to admit that Cao Peng planned a sweet future for him.Thinking about the two-month-old child in Cao Nan's womb, Deng Ji felt that it was necessary for him to work hard.At least, for his unborn child, he must fight for a birth and a future!
"Boy, are you not sick?"

Cao Peng became angry when he heard this, pushed Cao Ji's hand away, and stood up, "Father, if you have ambition, you are not afraid of your background. You don't even have this ambition, how can you do great things in the future?"

"No, I just..."

Cao Ji stammered and wanted to defend himself, but he didn't know how to speak.

Cao Peng's voice also woke up the others.

Seeing that everyone was looking this way, Deng Ji quickly said: "Okay, okay...Father, Ah Fu is also kind, so don't blame him. However, I think what Ah Fu said is not unreasonable. How can you succeed if you don’t even dare to think about some things?”

Cao Ji scratched his head and did not try to defend himself.

He also knew that he seemed a little cowardly...

Yes, if you think about it without committing a crime, whether you can do it is another matter.

At least this also shows what my friend expects of me.Although I'm just a hard man, but if I don't try some things, how will I know the result?

A small seed was planted in Cao Ji's heart like this.

As for taking root and sprouting in the future, what kind of fruit can it bear?Even including Cao Peng, it is difficult to make an estimate...

Dian Wei suddenly stood up.

Picking up the pair of iron halberds, he strode out of the main hall.

Judging by his face, it seems very dignified.Wei Yan, Xia Houlan and others also got up one after another, and strode to the steps outside the hall.

"Dian... Uncle, what's wrong?"

Cao Peng followed closely and came to Dian Wei's side.

I saw Dian Wei standing on the steps, looking up at the continuous rain, with a cold killing intent in his eyes.

"The sound of hooves... It seems that someone is coming this way."

In a word, everyone showed nervous expressions.Wang Mai Xiahoulan subconsciously clenched the spear in his hand, while Wei Yan narrowed his eyes!
