Chapter 29: Taking Advantage Together

  Chapter 29: Taking Advantage Together

  For hundreds of years, the national people's hobby of watching excitement has not changed. A large circle of people gathered around the two, pointing and pointing, and as soon as they heard that Jiang Feng decided to accept an apprentice.

  Outside, there were people applauding and shouting "good", this is how it has always been in the capital.

  Jiang Feng looked around at the people and suddenly felt a bit awkward, clearing his throat to shout:

  "Take a good look and then scatter."

  The people around finally realized they were watching two Imperial Guards having a heated argument and didn't dare to stay, instantly scattering like birds and beasts.

  In the old days, the relationship between a master and his apprentice, especially in martial arts, was not just close, but extremely intimate. After taking on an apprentice, Zhang Liang immediately felt that the distance between him and Jiang Feng had narrowed significantly, following closely behind him saying:

  "Master, will we go to Liu Xiansheng's house next?"

  Jiang Feng hesitated for a moment, and from his memory, he knew that Zhang Liang's family had been serving in the Imperial Guard for generations. He understood this relatively well, so he asked the other person:

  "Does it matter if I don't go?"

  Zhang Liang indeed said with a big laugh:

  "Master, they'd be delighted if you didn't go. They think we're eunuchs are just spying on them and causing trouble, so they wouldn't even have time to be happy if you didn't go."

  Jiang Feng smiled and said to Zhang Liang:

  "Alright, apprentice follow master to take care of some things."

  Zhang Liang took a look and had just entered the sect, he was called to help with things, this clearly didn't treat himself as an outsider, excitedly said:

  "Master has an errand, I follow him running, what's the big deal?"

  "Get out of the store!!"

  Leading Zhang Liang through several streets, at the intersection, Zhao Xiucan and Tie Dan were waiting there. Jiang Feng casually introduced them, saying, "This is my apprentice, Zhang Liang."

  Zhao Xiucan looked at Zhang Liang, who was slightly shorter than Jiang Feng, and they exchanged bows. In his heart, he couldn't help but marvel that his master's actions were truly unexpected - in just one day, he had taken on an apprentice! Zhang Liang also thought to himself: "Wow, our group of people are all poor and struggling, how did Master suddenly get a steward and servants? It's really not the same, it's really not the same!"

  Four people walked on the street, this road was the one Jiang Feng patrolled before his transfer. The street was quite prosperous, but in Jiang Feng's memory, except for the first day he came to work, all the shops along the way had given their respects to others.

  This time, the destination was Huifeng Tower, where Jiang Feng had his first bowl of white rice in the Ming Dynasty. After a morning of fuss, they arrived at the door just at noon, which was mealtime. However, there were still no people to be seen at the entrance, and the two doormen apparently remembered Jiang Feng, who had eaten white rice in their store without any skill.

  Seeing this thug, leading several people who were clearly not good standing at the door, suddenly became anxious. Last time, because of their unscrupulous discussion there, they were not only taken advantage of by this ruffian, but also got themselves into a lot of trouble and scolding.

  Then it was said among the shopkeepers on the street that Ma Jia brothers, who had always been tyrannical and lawless, were beaten by their former sworn brother Jiang Feng, and they really changed into different people.

  Brocade-clad guards are people who must avenge their grudges, and the two of them knew that offending someone once was not something that could be settled with just one meal. They were both anxiously waiting in their hearts, and today they finally came, bringing with them a tall and sturdy brocade guard (Zhang Liang). One looked like a strong robber (this was Tie Dan), and another looked like a treacherous-looking scholar who was an apprentice at a pawnshop (this was Zhao Xiucai).

  Who can't be afraid, but hiding now will definitely not work, the two of them hurriedly accompanied with a smile and went to greet him, loudly calling out:

  "Hey! Isn't this Boss Jiang? You've got some free time and have come to our humble shop with a few friends, please come in, come on in."

  Two waiters in their hearts said: Hurry up and invite them inside, there are Xiao Er and the boss who will entertain them, we don't have to bother with this trouble.

  What delighted them was that Jiang Feng really didn't want to bother with them, and walked straight inside. As soon as Jiang Feng entered the door, he furrowed his brow - it was just lunchtime, but there wasn't a single person in the main hall of the restaurant, showing just how dismal business was.

  As soon as he entered the door, the shopkeeper and the boss were about to greet him, but they were both startled. However, since he had come in and couldn't afford to offend him, they couldn't not entertain him, so they hastily welcomed him in.

  Before the tea was served, Jiang Feng led a few people to choose the middle table and sat down with a big fanfare. Zhang Liang, being the apprentice, stood behind Jiang Feng with an air of authority, while Tie Dan originally wanted to sit but was lifted up by Zhang Liang.

  Jiang Feng slammed his hand on the table, startling the shopkeeper so much that he jumped in fright. Then Jiang Feng loudly said to him:

  "Shopkeeper, where is your master?"

  The shopkeeper was puzzled in his heart, but still respectfully replied:

  "Our master is sleeping in the backyard, are there any instructions here?"

  "Call him over, I have something to discuss with him!"

  The shopkeeper was a middle-aged man in his forties, who looked puzzled upon hearing this and hastily asked with a smile:

  "Mr. Jiang, I don't know what business you have with our master?"

  Jiang Feng had not yet spoken, but Zhang Liang, who was standing behind him, let out a loud shout and pointed at the shopkeeper, yelling:

  "You're such a killer, why so much nonsense? My master told you to go shout, just go shout, or else beware of my fist."

  The shopkeeper was startled by Zhang Liang's loud shouting and quickly ran to the backyard, Zhao Xiucai sat next to Jiang Feng, somewhat dissatisfied with Zhang Liang's behavior earlier. In his opinion, did he have to show off his rough tone all the time to get things done? Just as he was about to speak up, Jiang Feng unexpectedly nodded in approval towards Zhang Liang.

  Jiang Feng's eyes shone with approval, implying "well done", this is my disciple Jiang Feng, Zhang Liang stood up straighter after receiving the praise. Zhao Xiuzai could only smile wryly and drink tea in silence, saying nothing.

  The master of Huifeng Building was a man in his fifties, not very tall, wearing a half-new satin long gown, thin and dry, with wrinkles all over his face. Jiang Feng's mind was puzzled, wasn't it said that people who open restaurants are always fat? In modern times, the belly of their restaurant owner was almost as big as a hippopotamus.

  The old man looked at Jiang Feng and others sitting there, hurried over to bow his hands, and the shopkeeper introduced:

  "This is our landlord."
