The sunken middle-aged man, of course, also has a name. His name is Lu Badan. He has been living a rough life. His mother passed away when he opened his eyes, and his father is unreliable. He never goes home for many years under the banner of doing business.
He was raised by his capable and lively sister who was ten years older than him.
My elder sister's daughter worked hard and married into the Chen family, a wealthy family in the city.
If one person achieves enlightenment, all his family members will benefit.
As the youngest son of the elder generation, he has that much seniority, but he would never dare to act like an elder in front of his smiling nephew-in-law.
This is because my nephew's husband is from the Chen family, a wealthy family in the city, and he owns three or four shops and workshops.
Therefore, this time his nephew's husband, who was older than him, told him that he had recommended him a lucrative job - he only had one task, which was to find out what secrets the Jingxian shop was hiding, what its core business was, how much money it made, and which stores and businesses it did business with.
To put it bluntly, he's just a spy.
The nephew's husband also taught him, "You have to use your status as an elder to pressure others. This works. If they don't obey you, you are unfilial. Anyone who is unfilial will be punished. No matter who they are, they will not survive!"
In today's world, filial piety is the most important thing.
Few things are more useful than filial piety.
But what if they don’t buy it?
He had questions, but he didn't dare to speak them out.
As a result of living under someone else's roof when he was young, he was very good at judging the situation, and knew how to bully the weak and fear the strong and go with the flow.
Likewise, like now.
Lu Badan stared in astonishment at the current shopkeeper who was arrogant but not justified, and deeply realized what it meant that a strong dragon could not defeat a local snake, what it meant that the boat had sailed through thousands of mountains, and there was no cloud except Mount Wushan, and what it meant that in my territory you have to listen to me.
"You...how dare you!" Lu Badan pointed his trembling fingers at Xianjin, "I sue..."
Lu Badan realized belatedly that once his communication channels were cut off, he would be really helpless!
Do you want him to send a letter by carrier pigeon?
He can edit books.
Pigeon, where are you?
"I...I quit! Let me go back first!" Lu Badan said bravely.
Xianjin spread his hands and said, "Jing County, this is a teahouse?"
Lu Badan tried to straighten his chest and said, "What do you mean?"
Xianjin smiled and said, "Since it's not a teahouse, how can you come and go as you please?"
Xianjin smiled like a pyramid scheme leader in later generations, "Now that you are here, you must work hard. You must work if you can, and you must work if you can't! Break a day into sixteen hours! You are not allowed to rest until you go to bed!"
Lu Badan was shaking all the time.
Xianjin continued, "Don't be fooled by the fact that there are only the old, weak, and sick here. We have six or seven thugs in our store! You run around and get beaten up, you crawl around and get beaten up! If you have any evil intentions, I'll dig out your heart and feed it to the dogs!"
Lu Badan felt a warm sensation in his trouser pocket. He was about to lose control of his bladder, so he forced himself to shout, "You... is Jing County a lawless place?"
Xianjin laughed strangely, "Without some special means, how do you think a little girl like me could survive in Jing County?"
Chen Jianfang: …
I'm sorry, my dear female gangster boss.
Chen Fu bit his lower lip, trying to make his smile less obvious.
Lu Badan was shaking so much that he almost shook his head off.
Xian Jin raised his hand calmly with a calm expression.
Lu Badan saw the fat black maid and the thin widowed old woman behind the female devil, grinning grimly, rolling up their sleeves, dragging him straight out of the yard, turning left after leaving the house, and dragging him into a shop.
"Snap" he let go!
When he looked up, he saw four or five shirtless young men surrounding him.
"The accountant from Xuancheng!" the fat black maid yelled, "The shopkeeper asked you to take care of it!"
Lu Badan hugged her shoulders, trembling like a newly married girl, waiting for the strong man to lift up her veil.
A sturdy black man strode forward.
Lu Badan screamed and covered his face.
"Cleaning? How? Put it in the hot water tank and scrub it clean?" Zhou Ergou picked up Lu Badan. "If you wash this little chicken twice, even the skin and bones will fall off!"
Lu Badan: Ahhhhhhh——
——In the end, no one washed him.
Several employees from the old store in Jing County placed him in a small room in the inner courtyard, provided him with a bed and a table, and even brought him dinner.
Everything is harmonious.
But at night, the sturdy man who picked him up stared at him fiercely for several times, and said meaningfully, "...We are going home, you can live here, don't fucking think that no one will take care of you - there are whistles on the tree and the roof, and the beating dog in the outer yard hasn't eaten for three days. When you go out, you are giving it meat!"
Lu Badan was trembling with fear.
He seemed to have entered some extraordinary place!
He must escape...write a letter...escape to the government...he doesn't want this job anymore, he doesn't want to do this anymore...
Zhou Ergou seemed to see through his thoughts and gritted his teeth and said, "Don't even think about escaping! Once you come here, you are Chen Ji's man. Chen Ji can kill you or blind you if he wants you to!"
Zhou Ergou raised his palm as big as a palm leaf fan and said, "Let's see, can you run faster, or can I slap your head off faster?"
Lu Badan took a deep breath, holding his breath back, not even daring to breathe.
Zhou Ergou pretended to raise his hand to slap him again.
Lu Badan's neck shrank back, and the tears in his eyes were all the tears that entered his brain when he agreed to be his nephew's son-in-law...
