After a long time, Ye Tian was busy eating.

When he returned to his residence, it was already noon. Ye Tian ate two pieces of bread with water to fill his stomach.

During this period, Hu Dou came to him once and asked him if he wanted to change his taste. Ye Tian dismissed him with a Felkin.

Oh, I have to find a way to make some money. It would be funny if I ate dirt before Yao Zhe had any clues. Ye Tian stared at the 7 Felkin in his pocket in a daze.

...

Towards the afternoon, Ye Tian opened his eyes while taking a nap on the sofa.

Hearing the noise outside, he rubbed his numb forehead and walked to the window to look out.

There were two men in suits standing at the door of Randy's house, and a woman in a linen dress was talking to them. She looked like Randy's mother.

"Mrs. Marika, you know, our standard is 3 Fair Silver per week, plus the supplementary payment you promised last month, even if you only pay for one more week of protection, it will cost 9 Fair Silver."

"But I only have 7 Fair Silver on me. Can you take it first, and when I have enough money, I will make up the rest?" Marika's tone was full of pleading.

Zhou Ming scratched his slightly curly brown hair and apologized, "But our boss only pays the bills. You are making it difficult for us to do this."

"But..." Marian smiled bitterly. 3 Fair Silver per week is the standard for a family. She and Andy are only two people, and they have never caused trouble. It is a bit unfair to use the same standard as others, but she can't use these as excuses. For a while, she didn't know what to do.

"Hush~", a frivolous whistle attracted their attention.

Ye Tian held the handrail in front of the door, a cunning flash in his eyes: "What kind of work do you do?"

Zhou Ming and Baken looked at Ye Tian with some surprise, and then they knew that someone lived next to him.

However, this is a house managed by the Rose Tavern. They don't know whether Ye Tian has paid protection fees to a certain force, so they have no intention of further investigation.

Zhou Ming covered his chest with one hand and bowed slightly: "Hello, we are members of the Axe Gang, and we are collecting protection fees reasonably."

Although the other party used grammar that he didn't understand, he could still guess the general meaning.

Why is he so polite? Ye Tian didn't know how to open the plot for a while. It's impossible for others to greet him with a smile, and I will face him with a bad face, right?

"Protection fees? What are you protecting?" Ye Tian tapped the handrail with his fingers and asked jokingly.

Zhou Ming thought for a moment and said, "Generally speaking, we are responsible for the protection of items, personal protection and property.

"If there is a thief in your house, you can tell us. If a child or important item is lost, we can send someone to search for it if you provide clues. Being bullied, beaten and abused for no reason is also our business.

"Anyway, as long as it is conceivable and reasonable, we will be responsible."

Zhou Ming shrugged, indicating that this is all.

Ye Tian on the opposite side was stunned. My God, are you sure you are still a gangster? You are almost helping with everything, making me want to pay protection fees to experience it.

"Then is your protection fee compulsory?" Ye Tian glanced at Marika, always feeling that the other party was a little reluctant.

"Uh." Zhou Ming's eyes were stunned uncontrollably, obviously he didn't expect to be asked such a question.

Bakken touched the tip of his high nose and added: "It's okay for you to understand it this way. We are not good people and have no obligation to protect those who don't pay protection fees. You can look at the houses of those who have lived in gang-free areas all year round and see which one is intact."

Marika, who originally wanted to beg again, couldn't help but pale when she heard this. In fact, she also knew a rule, that is, if you don't pay protection fees for a week, you will be driven out of the gang's territory. At that time, she may take Randy to that dilapidated "wilderness".

"Is that so." Ye Tian touched his chin and couldn't help but have some interest in the Axe Gang.

It is normal to pay for protection no matter where you are, and the other party didn't force you to spend money, so what else is there to be dissatisfied with.

Thinking of this, Ye Tian's face was filled with joy: "Can I join you?"

Zhou Ming: ...

Bakken: ...

Marika: ...

"Just kidding." Seeing the other party was stunned, Ye Tian smiled and turned his head, hooking his hand at Huo Chuan at the door: "You, come here."

Huo Chuan was immediately startled,

He ran over at the fastest speed: "Boss, what do you want?"

Zhou Ming and Baken noticed Huo Chuan at this time. They looked at each other with a little surprise.

They knew Huo Chuan. He was a bad guy who could be hired as long as he paid money. He was notorious in District 86. Every gang sneered at him. Although they didn't like Huo Chuan, they would not underestimate him.

Because he dared to be alone in District 86 and still mixed well, he could be found by fingers. If they just faced each other, they might not be able to catch each other.

And such a person was respectful to this strange man.

Ye Tian gently pinched Huo Chuan's shoulder with his fingers, and looked at him with a smile on his face, which made Huo Chuan feel a little uneasy.

"Do you have money on you?"

"Ah?" Huo Chuan's nervous eyes suddenly determined. He almost thought that Ye Tian was going to do something bad to him, but he didn't expect that he just asked this.

He replied with a look of doubt: "Yes."

"Well, then you should be kind enough to help your neighbor pay the protection fee." Ye Tian gestured to the other side, and Huo Chuan immediately understood and hurriedly ran again.

"How much?" Huo Chuan asked with a trembling mouth before he came back from the trance of facing Ye Tian's eyes.

Baken saw Huo Chuan's appearance and secretly jumped his eyebrows. Who is the other party that made Huo Chuan so scared? He planned to report to the boss when he returned that there was such a person next to their territory, and they didn't notice it.

Marika didn't expect that this new neighbor would help him so much. She looked at Ye Tian with gratitude, and then whispered to Huo Chuan: "Only two Fer silver coins are needed. I will try to get more business next time, and I will pay you back when I make enough money."

Huo Chuan always felt that Ye Tian was watching him from behind. His hearing was a little reduced due to nervousness. He didn't hear clearly how much the other party wanted. He took out several Fer silver coins and stuffed them into Marika's hands: "Is it enough? If not, I have more."

Marika saw the five Fer silver coins in her hand and said in surprise: "Ah, too much, just two coins are enough."

"Do you want two more?" Huo Chuan reached into his waist pocket again in a panic, but was stopped by Marika.

"No, no, you have given enough, and there is still a lot more."

"Enough?" Huo Chuan confirmed with a dazed look.

"Well, that's enough." Marika was a little worried when she saw Huo Chuan's condition was not normal, but before she could ask more questions, Huo Chuan turned back and left her hand empty.

"Boss, do you have any other instructions?" Huo Chuan stood behind Ye Tian, ​​looking ready to go at any time.

"Well, you did a good job, go back and continue standing." Ye Tian did not turn his head to look at him.

"Okay."

Back at the door again, Huo Chuan's nervous mood slowly calmed down, as if only here could bring him a sense of security.

Huo Chuan's series of actions once again refreshed Baken's cognition, and made him evaluate Ye Tian again: This person must not be easily provoked, before finding out his details.

After Zhou Ming received 9 pieces of Fair Silver, he took out the notebook under his armpit, wrote a line of words carefully, and then prepared to leave with Baken.

Seeing Ye Tian still holding the handrail, he hesitated for a moment and said, "Hello, if you are interested in our gang, I can mention it to the boss to see if he has any intention of recruiting people."

Bakken, who was a step behind him, was surprised by Zhou Ming's boldness. How could you invite such a dangerous person directly when he hadn't checked it yet? So he frantically gestured to Zhou Ming, asking him to stop talking.

"Oh? Of course I'm interested." Ye Tian smiled euphemistically.

Zhou Ming ignored Bakken's gesture, thought about it and asked again, "Can you leave a name?"

Name? Ye Tian hesitated for a moment and planned to continue using the name Ye Zi, but then he thought that he didn't need to be so careful now, and considering the purpose of his coming here.

After a few seconds of silence, Ye Tian raised his dark eyes and said calmly, "My name is Ye Tian, ​​the night of the night, the sky of the sky."

This is the first time he has used this name.

And if nothing unexpected happens, this name will cause a big wave here.

"Okay, I'll remember that." Zhou Ming nodded politely, and then walked away with Bakken.

Bakken didn't stop until they were far away, looking at Zhou Ming, and said with a little anger: "What are you thinking? You just dragged an unknown person into the gang. What if something goes wrong?"

Zhou Ming shook his head and exhaled: "The Black Tiger Gang has been getting more and more brazen recently, and we can only rely on the boss to support us."

Bakken understood what he meant, but still felt a little

Regret: "But you shouldn't tell him so clearly. If the boss doesn't recruit him, wouldn't it be like provoking an enemy for nothing?"

Zhou Ming didn't care: "This is not what we need to consider. If he really wants to join, the invitation just now is sincere enough. If he has other ideas, what's the point of relying on us to stop him?"

Bakken was speechless and sighed: "Okay, okay, you always have the right. Anyway, I will report to the boss truthfully when I go back."

Zhou Ming nodded: "Of course, everything is decided by the boss."
