Chapter 47 Getting jealous
Seeing Li Chongjiu's words, all the people present responded in unison: "Good morning, Young Escort!"

The sound was so violent that it made everyone's ears buzzing, echoing everywhere, and the drinkers at the side all looked surprised when they saw this scene.Attracted attention for a while.

Li Chongjiu smiled slightly, and saw that there were many unfamiliar faces in the Li Family Escort in front of him. At this moment, Wang Mahan said, "Young Escort, many of the brothers are our newly hired helpers, and they are also the number one. See you next time, before you come out, introduce yourself to the young guard."

"Yes, Escort Wang. My name is Zhou Daniu, from Shangdang." "It's a pleasure to meet, it's a pleasure to meet!" Li Chongjiu clasped his fists and said.

Then another person clasped his fists and said: "I have met the young escort, my name is Niu Jin, and I am not married yet. I heard about the young escort, and I am willing to bow down."

As soon as Niu Jin finished speaking, Wang Mahan yelled and cursed, Li Chongjiu understood for a moment that Niu Jin was referring to the fact that he forcibly robbed Li Zhiwan to go to the cottage.

This Niu Jin was also a Hun who blushed and apologized to Li Chongjiu after being scolded by Wang Mahan for a while.

Li Chongjiu laughed, and said: "Niu Jin, don't worry, I will marry that lady of the Li family sooner or later."

Hearing what Li Chongjiu said, everyone laughed.

With such an encounter, the estrangement between everyone and Li Chongjiu has been resolved.Everyone stepped forward to salute one by one, and Li Chongjiu returned the salute with clasped fists.When he was in the mall in his previous life, Li Chongjiu treated people like a spring breeze, otherwise, how could he run such a large company with so many talents working for him.

And this time, the old and new brothers in Qiqianzhai saw Li Chongjiu's personal charm, and all of them felt that the young escort was kind, but respectful.

Everyone was having fun for a while, and now everyone gathered together to drink and chat.

Li Chongjiu first asked Wang Mahan about the situation of the Escort.

At present, there are about 200 brothers in Qiqianzhai plus the newly recruited men.

This time, Su Su, Li Hu, and Wang Mahan came to Luoyang with fifty brothers, while Sun Erniang took the rest to sit in the General Escort Bureau of Shangdang County.

In the Escort Bureau, according to Li Chongjiu's original division, it is divided into Escort Head, Escort Master, and Trip Hand.

The head of the bodyguard is Li Hu, Su Su, Wang Mahan, Sun Erniang and others, all of whom are highly skilled in martial arts, deeply trusted, and can take care of themselves.

The bodyguards are selected brothers who are proficient in martial arts, and they are responsible for protecting the safety of the bodyguards. If they encounter bandits who cut the path, they will come forward and send them away.

As for the troopers, they are the lowest level. They are generally responsible for shouting darts and helping caravans escort goods, which is hard work.If there is nothing wrong with the tripper, it usually takes two to three years to turn into a bodyguard master.

Of course, escorts, escorts, and troopers get different money and silk every time they go on a business trip, so this is also an incentive.

Then Li Chongjiu asked Wang Mahan where Li Hu and Su Su were going.Wang Mahan seemed to have a serious worry on his face, and said: "Both the Chief Escort and Su Escort went to Nanshi to discuss with the steward of the Jiuli Caravan."

Li Chongjiu heard that Wang Mahan looked unhappy, knowing that the matter was not going smoothly.

Wang Mahan probably told Li Chongjiu that it was Li Hu and Su Su who were bodyguards for several caravans this time. After sending them out of Mobei, they made a fortune and deducted [-]% of the shares for Shan Xiongxin. There is also a surplus of three hundred hanging coins.

All the brothers were very happy about this, and Li Hu gave the 150 guan money to the brothers to improve their lives, which made all the brothers in Qiqianzhai very happy.

Just when Li Hu was about to use the remaining 150 guns to expand the size of the bodyguard, they learned that his bodyguard was being targeted.

The reason is this, going outside the Mobei Great Wall is huge profits, so many big merchants are operating and monopolizing this trade relying on their own power.

These big merchants have their own guards, so there is no need to hire escorts from the Li Family Escort Bureau to guard their goods. Therefore, Li Hu and the others are going out this time to gather several small merchants together, and there are even only one or two horses. Individual merchants with mules and horses were also organized together to escort them out of the fortress.

No one knows this, but it violates the interests of those big businessmen.So not long after, the government immediately put pressure on Li Hu and the others to force them to disband the escort agency.

In this way, Li Hu and the others had nothing to do. Although Shan Xiongxin's golden noodles could be enjoyed in the green forest, they could not compete with the government. I heard that this time they attracted the help of aristocratic families and used their strong connections in the government to put pressure on Li Hu.

Just when Li Hu was at his wit's end, the manager of a caravan named Jiuli came to his door, willing to let Li Hu and the others come forward to negotiate with these caravans and eliminate the disaster for them.

Of course, Li Hu knew that there was no such good thing, and when he inquired about the Jiuli caravan, he actually fell in love with the business of Li's bodyguard company.Wanting to take this opportunity to absorb the Li Family Escort, they only gave Li Hu and the others [-]% of the stock, and they took over the rest.

Hearing this, Li Chongjiu already felt that something was wrong, and he asked Wang Mahan for some specific details, and now he felt that the matter was even more strange.The Jiuli caravan happened to show up at this time, and the timing was too opportune.

When Li Chongjiu was suspicious, he suddenly said outside the door: "Chief escort, Su escort is back."

Li Hu and Su Su walked back to the inn with worried faces.

That's all for Li Hu, but Su Su couldn't help sighing a bit.Outside the inn door, Su Su discussed with Li Hu and said: "Chief Escort, I see that things have reached this point, and there is nothing we can do. We can't fight those people because our arms can't twist our thighs."

Li Hu squeezed his beard while walking, and said: "Don't say that, this escort agency is Xiao Jiu's painstaking effort, and I will guard it for him no matter what. I have to think of a way, and I need to deal with Jiuli Chamber of Commerce again."

Su Su nodded and said: "Yes, the business of the Escort Bureau is booming. If it ends like this, no one will be reconciled. Let's think of a way."

While the two were walking to discuss and think of a solution, they suddenly saw that the canteen inside the inn was full.

"Father! Fourth Uncle!" Li Hu and Su Su's eyes widened when they saw Li Chongjiu standing in front of them.

Su Su immediately stepped forward and grabbed Li Chongjiu's arms, and said, "Xiao Jiu, it's really you. I'm really worried about your fourth uncle since I left Erxian Zhuang!"

Li Chongjiu smiled and said, "Fourth Uncle, don't you see that I'm back?"

Su Su nodded, looked at Li Chongjiu and said, "It's good to be back, um, you've grown taller again, and you seem to have become stronger. Well, it seems that you have had a good life in the past six months. Those monks didn't Treating you badly, I thought the temple’s rules and regulations would torture people!”

Compared with Su Su's eagerness, Li Hu took it for granted, and he didn't look too excited when he saw Li Chongjiu, he just nodded and said: "Xiao Jiu, it's good to be back, remember to go to Shaolin Temple for a while, don't become a monk Monk, do you understand?"

Li Chongjiu was funny in his heart, and Li Hu was most worried that Li Chongjiu would become a monk and cut off the incense of the Li family.Li Chongjiu said seriously: "Father, don't worry, I will never become a monk, but your lungs..."

Li Hu raised his head when he heard this, and said: "Well, it's much better now, and if you take a few more medicines, it will take half a year and you'll be fine."

Li Chongjiu was overjoyed to hear that.

At that moment, Li Chongjiu looked at Li Hu and Su Su, and said, "Father, Fourth Uncle, what happened to the discussion at Jiuli Merchant?"

Hearing what Li Chongjiu said, Li Hu and Su Su looked at each other.Su Su reluctantly said: "Fortunately, everything is going well." The reluctance on their faces couldn't be hidden from Li Chongjiu, and Li Chongjiu said: "Father, fourth uncle, this Li's bodyguard bureau is our seven The painstaking efforts of the brothers in Qianzhai must not be taken away by others, as long as we get together, are we afraid that we will not be able to come up with a solution?"

Hearing that Li Chongjiu was so confident, Li Hu and Su Su felt a lot of confidence at the moment.
