Chapter 173
The man's thoughts changed sharply, and he thought of a speech in an instant. Just as he was about to speak, he heard Qin Ranran's tone calm: "Needless to say, I don't want to hear it."

The words that just came to his lips were choked back in an instant, and the man lowered his head a little dejectedly: "Oh."

Qin Ranran walked to the railing and looked at the rolling sand river, and said with a smile: "I don't care about that, I just want to know, if I deliver a batch of goods to you, can you transport the goods from Suzhou to China safely?" Go to Beijing."

The man suddenly raised his head: "Little lady, ah, no, madam means you want to use me?"

Qin Ranran smiled and nodded: "It depends on whether you are available or not. If you are available, you will be the one who will travel back and forth between Suzhou and Shangjing for me. If you are not available, then go. Hey, where are you?" She turned Ask Lu Jiu.

Lu Jiu suppressed a smile and replied, "Red Desert Forest."

"If you can't use it, go feed the wolves in the Red Desert Forest." Qin Ranran's tone was very relaxed.

The man smiled wryly at Qin Ranran and knelt down on the ground: "Now that I'm in such a poor situation, I must obey my wife's order."

Qin Ranran nodded: "Those of your subordinates, choose two reliable people to help you, and the rest will be sent to the army."

The man didn't seem to have thought that the charming little lady in front of him still had the power to send people into the army. He was shocked, and after a while he shook his head again: "Don't worry, madam, I will definitely work hard for madam and repay madam's love for me." Thank you for your support."

Lu Chengan raised his eyebrows, seeing that this person was quite clever, he ordered General Lu Shi to keep an eye on him, and then called Lu Si across the boat, asking him to recruit him into the army.

The man knelt on the ground and introduced himself: "Ma'am, my name is Liu Lin. I was a tribute in the 16th year of Deqing. After I was admitted as a tribute, my family's ancestral property was suddenly forcibly bought by the local governor's brother-in-law at a low price. The money is still worthless." It was not enough for me to take part in the Juren Science Examination, so my parents went there in a fit of rage. In addition to learning the Four Books and Five Classics since I was a child, I also learned some boxing skills, so I went to kill the governor's brother-in-law and fled to the vicinity of the Yellow River. Became a water bandit."

"Where is your ancestral home?" Lu Chengan asked suddenly.

Liu Lin said confidently: "The governor was beheaded a few days ago, that is, the governor Huang in Jinling. I heard that it was a general surnamed Lu who killed him. If there is a chance, I will definitely have a good relationship with this general Lu. Just have a drink."

Qin Ranran turned to look at Lu Chengan, Lu Chengan said with a smile, "Ranran, let someone prepare a table of food and wine at noon, and Liu Lin and I will have a good drink."

Liu Lin stared blankly at Lu Chengan for a while, then suddenly came back to his senses, turned his head and kowtowed heavily at Lu Chengan: "General Lu!"

"Don't worry, general, I will definitely do well for Madam as Madam has told me!"

Lu Chengan smiled and helped him up: "I will not enslave your brothers, as long as they have made meritorious service on the battlefield, I will let them be officials according to the regulations."

Liu Lin's eyes were red, and he wiped his face: "General, I want to go back and tell them that my brothers are straight-hearted and loyal, maybe they will think that I am dead and against your people .”

Lu Chengan nodded: "You go, my subordinates are over there, you have a good talk with them, it's better to have a chance to make a contribution than to be this water bandit."

Liu Lin got up immediately, supported the railing with both hands, and jumped to the opposite side.

A group of elders under him were staring at Lu Si and the others.

"Da Niu!" He hurriedly called to stop the man who bumped into the most fiercely, "I'm still alive."

Da Niu's big copper bell eyes immediately turned red when he saw Liu Lin: "Brother Lin Zi, we all thought you were dead!"

"My lord, let me have a few words with them. I have already made an agreement with General Lu." Liu Lin stepped forward and bowed his hands to Lu.

When Lu Si heard him say that he had agreed with Lu Chengan, he made a gesture to tell his subordinates to back off.

Daniu and the others saw that these people let go of themselves, angrily slapped the dust on their clothes, and said to Liu Lin, "Brother Lin Zi..."

Liu Lin raised his hand to stop them, took a step forward, patted Daniel on the shoulder, and said, "Brothers, today we messed with someone we shouldn't have messed with, do you know who we snatched today? It's you guys General Lu, who is always on the lips and most wants to serve as a soldier with him!"

As soon as this remark came out, the crowd was excited and surprised.

Qin Ranran poked Lu Chengan with her elbow, "Hey, I can't tell, you're still famous."

Lu Chengan grabbed her elbow and pulled her into his arms: "Things seem to be going well."

Liu Lin continued: "I have confirmed the identity of General Lu just now, and the general said that he wants to drink with us today!"

Daniu and the others cheered for a while, the scene was extremely lively, they even gave a warm hug to Lu Chengan's men who were cold-eyed just now: "I'm sorry brother just now!"

"The general also said that we should serve as soldiers with him. We are not slaves, but serious soldiers. As long as we make meritorious service and follow the rules, everyone will be an official and marry a wife!" Liu Lin's tone was suddenly excited. Get up, "I've already promised for you, it's better than being a water bandit with me, I don't know when I will be surrounded by the government, I don't know when I will die in this muddy sand river, even you I can't even find my bones!"

"They are all men of seven feet, why don't they go to make meritorious deeds and honor their ancestors? Why do they carry the name of water bandits so that future generations will not be allowed to take scientific examinations or enter the barracks?"

Daniel and the others were silent.

After a while, someone suddenly dropped the knife in his hand and shouted loudly: "Brother Lin Zi gave me food when I was about to die of starvation. Now he says to be a soldier, so I will join the army! Listen to Brother Lin Zi." Yes, always right!"

"Yes, we listen to Lin Zige!"

The water bandits echoed one after another and dropped their weapons.

Liu Lin looked excited: "Brothers believe in me, and I will not harm everyone. When the brothers have made meritorious service and are promoted to an official position, remember to support me, Liu Lin."

Da Niu immediately widened his eyes again: "Brother Lin Zi, won't you join the army?"

Liu Lin said with a smile: "I promised the general's wife that if I want to run errands and do business for her, I won't be able to serve as a soldier, but if you become soldiers and become officials, it's not the same thing if you make money by doing business with me." Is it? When did our brothers separate you and me?"

"Brother Lin Zi is right!" Another big man said in a low voice, "It's the same among our brothers who are prosperous!"

"However, I still have something to say." Liu Lin's expression suddenly became serious, and he said loudly, "General Lu is a good official. We will follow him in the future. We can't do things that insult the general's reputation. If we do , don’t blame us for not recognizing him as a brother!”

 One more!After the new year, the weather is so cold... from the first day of the new year to today, the sun has been out for half a day
