The person who opened the door was a strong woman about seven and a half feet tall.
Liang Xiao immediately explained his intention and showed Mu Ping's letter of recommendation.
"Please wait!"
The woman took the letter and turned around to leave, leaving Liang Xiao hanging at the door.
Liang Xiao was not angry and waited quietly.
As Mu Ping said, these Yanyun heroes and their families are not familiar with the ways of the world.
In the courtyard, eighteen tall and tough men with muscles that seemed to be about to explode were sitting together, drinking to drown their sorrows.
The leading bald man was over nine feet tall, his arms looked thicker than the thighs of an average adult man, and he had a fierce look on his face.
It is none other than the leader of Yan Yun heroes, Lei Hong!
A strong man suggested: "Boss, why don't we go back to the mountains? Why do we have to suffer this bad attitude in the capital!"
Lei Hong nodded and said: "Hello in the mountains!"
"The father of the child has guests coming."
The woman was Lei Hong's wife. She quickly ran over to remind Lei Hong and handed over the recommendation letter.
Lei Hong glanced at it and frowned.
"Damn, how can I recognize so many words!"
He threw the letter of recommendation to the other strong men, and everyone looked at it with confused expressions on their faces.
They are all illiterate...
The wife explained: "Boss Liang means that General Mu recommended you to Boss Liang, who was recently ordered to form a cavalry team."
"Boss? Businessman?" Lei Hong was stunned and waved his hand, "Except for the Marquis Dingguo's Mansion, there are profiteers everywhere in the capital. Form a team of Mao and let him go back!"
The wife was helpless and returned to the door to explain the situation to Liang Xiao.
Liang Xiao smiled and said, "Can you take me in to have a look?"
Seeing Liang Xiao's sincere attitude, his wife hesitated for a moment and then nodded.
Liang Xiao passed by the corridor and found that there were dozens of old, weak, women and children sunbathing in the large house. Seeing that he was clean and tidy in white clothes, the children also cast curious glances at him.
Looking at these children with strong bodies and clear eyes, Liang Xiao was moved.
What a good seedling?
When Liang Xiao entered the courtyard, he found that eighteen people were still drinking and fist-fighting, so he stopped at the door and observed with interest.
These eighteen people, at first glance, are the toughest among tough guys!
And their looks are vicious enough.
Unlike me, who looks harmless to humans and animals, I may have to wear a ghost mask when going to the battlefield in the future to be a deterrent.
The strong men facing Liang Xiao soon discovered Liang Xiao at the door and reminded each other.
There are also eighteen gleaming long knives placed in the corner, obviously they are also good weapons.
Lei Hong and others also turned to look at the door and frowned.
"My dear, why did you bring him here?"
"It's Boss Liang who asked to come in..." the wife laughed dryly.
Without waiting for Lei Hong's response, Liang Xiao immediately announced his family status.
"Liang Xiao, my late father was the late Marquis of Lanling."
"The son of Marquis Lanling?"
The strong men put down the wine jars in their hands one after another, looked at Liang Xiao with curious expressions, and then all shook their heads in disappointment.
"I heard that you are a businessman and want to hire us?" Lei Hong asked.
"good."
Lei Hong said categorically: "Since he is a businessman, there is no need to talk about it. The Sa family and brothers are not interested in businessmen!"
Everyone agreed and urged Liang Xiao to go back and not to hinder them from drinking.
Liang Xiao was confused.
Mu Ping only gave him a letter of recommendation, and did not even arrange for him to be introduced by his subordinates. The reason was that he was not familiar with these Yanyun heroes.
But Liang Xiao vaguely felt something was wrong. Are these people so unkind?
"Are you illiterate?" Liang Xiao asked.
Being poked in the painful spot, Lei Hong said angrily: "Is it none of your business?"
Liang Xiao smiled.
"Boss, does this guy seem to be laughing at us?" Someone had already started shouting.
"For General Mu's sake, just let him go. Don't argue with him. We can't play with the businessman's schemes!" Lei Hong said impatiently.
Liang Xiao smiled even happier.
Lei Hong also slowly lowered his face and said in a deep voice: "You brat, what's so funny??"
Liang Xiao still smiled and said: "What is your ambition? Isn't it to build a career and make a wife?"
"Follow a businessman to build a successful career?"
There was a burst of laughter.
Liang Xiao then put away his smile and said: "You are the guilty ones. After I was a guilty minister, my late father offended too many ministers from aristocratic families, so you and I are essentially the same, and we are not treated by those aristocratic families." You see, doing business is a last resort, but now I have become a first-class imperial merchant, working for the emperor."
The laughter at the scene stopped abruptly.
"Businessmen always think one thing before others and another after others. They are either making ridiculous claims or just trying to trick people into following you. You are not as considerate as Gongyang Yunduo!"
Liang Xiao smiled slightly and walked towards a huge stone in the yard.
Under the shocked gaze of everyone, Liang Xiao picked up the stone with both hands, then shouted angrily, threw it up five feet, and caught it with one hand!
The scene was completely silent for a moment!
Everyone looked at Liang Xiao, who was holding the stone with one hand, with disbelief on their faces.
"boom!"
Liang Xiao casually threw the boulder on the ground. The loud noise woke everyone up and filled the air with dust.
A strong man said in shock: "Boss, boss, that stone weighs three hundred kilograms. This kid seems to be able to lift it more easily than you..."
Lei Hong came to his senses, stood up slowly, and looked at Liang Xiao again.
"As the saying goes, people should not be judged by their appearance. I only ask you now, do you want to drink wine and eat meat all the time? Do you want to drink horses with me one day, sweep across the desert, and become famous throughout the ages?"
Liang Xiao's majestic and bold question was like a thunderbolt from the blue, shocking everyone and making them unable to calm down for a long time.
Finally, Lei Hong took a deep breath and said excitedly: "It's not enough to have strength alone. Can Sajia try Boss Liang's martial arts?"
…
In the lobby of Dingguo Hou Mansion, Mu Qinxue curled her lips and looked resentful.
Mu Ping, on the other hand, sat there calmly and sipping tea, with a contented look on his face.
"Dad, you clearly know that they are illiterate, why did you only give him a letter of recommendation!"
Mu Ping frowned and said: "My father is just testing him, and I want to see your reaction. Look at you, is the fox's tail exposed? I really thought that your little trick could hide it from my father. Tsk, tsk, tsk... "
Mu Qinxue couldn't help but give Mu Ping a blank look, turned her back to Mu Ping, and sulked in anger.
Mu Ping's brows trembled, with a look of helplessness on his face.
His father, Marquis Dingguo, was in tears when he described to him how he was chased by his mother.
What his mother did was very similar to what this girl did.
Of course, the "mastermind" behind this marriage was Liang Xiao's grandfather.
For this reason, Marquis Lao Dingguo repeatedly warned his son to be careful of beautiful women, especially women who seemed powerless but steady on their feet.
He was careful.
But he didn't expect that his daughter would learn from her grandmother...
What a sin!
Now Mu Ping even doubts whether his father's motive in betrothing this girl to Liang Xiao is to repay a favor or to take revenge.
Now father and daughter have their own concerns.
After a while, the guard from outside came to report: "Master, Mr. Liang is here with those Yanyun heroes!"
