Bao Guowei nodded. Liu Qiwa was not an ordinary bandit. He not only robbed wealthy businessmen and squires who were domineering, but also took in homeless old people and children to the mountains. He was a chivalrous man.
"Don't worry! Mr. Liu is a good person, and we can't forget our roots."
That night, Bao Guowei and Lao Bao slept in the same bed. The father and son chatted all night long, as if they had endless things to say, just like when they were young and couldn't afford coal in the winter, Bao Guowei and Lao Bao squeezed into a small room and hugged each other to keep warm. .
The next day, Bao Guowei took the initiative to ask to see Liu Qiwa.
As soon as they met, Liu Qiwa smiled and helped Bao Guowei to his throne, and set up another position there just for him.
Bao Guowei naturally knew that there was recruitment intention in this. He originally did not want to have anything to do with the bandits, but Liu Qiwa saved Bao's father's life, not to mention that they did not do anything to harm the civilians. Zhao'an would also have methods in the future.
So Bao Guowei did not refuse.
"Then thank you very much, Master Liu!"
"What nonsense are you talking about? You saved my life. Why can't I do this position?!" Liu Qiwa laughed loudly.
"Master Liu, although your injury is okay for the time being, it is not completely healed yet. After all, what I used was earthwork. It only temporarily prevented the wound from becoming infected and suppurating. However, without professional medical treatment, there will still be infection. possible."
"Haha, if you live for a moment longer, you will make money. Look at that turtle bastard, huddled motionless in his shell. Even if he has lived for a hundred years, it doesn't mean he has any ability!"
"Alas! It's a pity that I, Liu Qiwa, have not yet made a career in this world..."
Liu Qiwa's remarks were so heroic that Bao Guowei felt that he was an ambitious man.
"Don't worry, Mr. Liu! I know there is a shortage of doctors and medicines on the mountain. After I, Bao Guowei, come down from the mountain, I will buy some for you and send them up to the mountain. You don't need a professional doctor for your current injury. You only need to change the dressing regularly. Can."
"Thank you so much, Brother Guowei! However, what Brother Guowei means is that you are not planning to come to Monkey Suan Mountain again?"
"Haha, where did you come from? I'll definitely come back when Guowei is free!"
As the two spoke a few words, they suddenly felt as if they were in another world. They both felt that the other person was a man worthy of close friendship.
Liu Qiwa brought Tian Erwa and Chen Hongliang in.
Seeing Chen Hongliang again and seeing him intact, Bao Guowei felt relieved.
Since Bao Guowei entered the house, he wanted to ask about the whereabouts of Chen Hongliang, but he was afraid that Liu Qiwa had grown up with Manager Liu, and people in the palace would inevitably be careful and suspicious. He was afraid that Manager Liu would be suspicious, so he never mentioned it.
"Brother Bao!"
Bao Guowei patted Chen Hongliang on the shoulder, "You kid, you make me so worried!"
"Brother Guowei, don't worry! I haven't treated Brother Hongliang badly at all."
Tian Erwa and Chen Hongliang are both good at martial arts. They hit it off immediately and were very close at the moment.
When Liu Qiwa saw them like this, she immediately became excited and suggested: "Since Master Tian Er and little brother Hongliang are so close to each other, it happens that brother Guowei and I are also the same as before. How about the four of us sworn brothers now?"
Tian Erwa scratched her head in embarrassment and said, "I'm just afraid of Brother Guowei..."
Bao Guowei knew that he was worried that he would mind if Bao Guowei was tied up by him when he went up the mountain that day, but how could he be such a stingy person?
Besides, what does it mean to recognize a brother? When you go out, you have many friends and many roads. If you are really desperate in the future, you may still have many opportunities.
Bao Guowei no longer hesitated, cupped his hands and said: "Then it's better to be respectful than to obey!"
Tian Erwa was overjoyed. It was a great honor to be called brothers to a hero like Bao Guowei!
Liu Qiwa immediately asked someone to go to the back mountain to take out two jars of wine that General Manager Liu had buried under the tree when he went up the mountain. He then took two male pheasants, wiped the male pheasants' necks with a hatchet, and put the wine below. The bowl caught the blood and mixed the strong wine into it.
Four people each have a bowl of meat wine.
Liu Qiwa raised the wine and said loudly: "After drinking this bowl of pheasant blood wine and bowing before Guan Gong, the four of us will become brothers!"
After that, the four of them drank it together.
The pheasant blood wine was poured into the throat. Due to the years of brewing of strong liquor, the aroma of the wine actually covered up the smell of blood. It did not feel unpleasant to drink, but had a different flavor.
The four kowtowed in front of the statue of Guan Gong, and they became half-brothers.
Liu Qiwa is the oldest and the eldest brother.
Tian Erwa was second, Bao Guowei was second, and Chen Hongliang was the youngest.
After nightfall, Liu Qiwa held a banquet, and the mountain was full of bustle. Many old people and children who were taken in by Housuan Mountain were able to get some wine to drink and some brown sugar to taste.
Another small banquet was held in Liu Qiwa's room. The four brothers were all there, as well as Liu Liumei, Tian Shi and Bao Fu.
Liu Qiwa could not drink more because she was still injured.
Although Bao Guowei drank a lot, he didn't dare to drink too much. Moreover, this wine did not need to be modern craft wine. It was very muddy and made his stomach hurt after drinking it.
Only Tian Erwa and Chen Hongliang drank to their heart's content. They were sent back by Tian's people when they were drunk.
Father Bao has been around for so many years that he feels uncomfortable sitting down to eat.
At the table, he only nodded and bowed when the "four gentlemen" said something.
Bao Guowei blamed him for saying that there was no reason for me to bend down for my son, but Bao's father didn't take it seriously.
He thought to himself: "I gave birth to my son, so what are you afraid of? My son is so promising and capable, so what does it mean for me to bend down for my son?"
But Bao Guowei saw that Lao Bao was uncomfortable, so he asked him to go back and rest first.
Suddenly, Bao Guowei, Liu Qiwa and Liu Liumei were the only three people left in the room.
Although they had been drinking for three rounds, both of them were sober and took advantage of Liu Liumei's opportunity to get the wine and hot dishes.
"Third brother."
"Huh?" Bao Guowei suddenly became alert when he heard that the tone was wrong.
"Recently, I found out about a piece of God-given wealth. I don't know if I should tell Brother Guowei..."
Bao Guowei smiled and said: "Although the world is sad now, I know that if Liu Da wants this wealth, he will not hurt the poor. But having said that, it will inevitably hurt people's lives. This is something I can't bear to see... "
"It's normal for my third brother to have concerns. However, for us, this is wealth, but for the poor people in this vast land, it is a great good thing!"
"Brother, it doesn't matter."
"This is it. I robbed a batch of goods a few days ago. They belong to the Guo family in Wusu City. The third brother is from Shuixiang Town. He should know that the Guo family is a foreign businessman in the dock. They flatter foreign merchants externally and bully the dock internally. Workers, in the fish and meat village.”
"Tian Erwa and I have long disliked him and wanted to kill him. Just a few days ago, we got the opportunity and robbed him of a batch of goods. I thought it was just foreign goods or something, but I never thought that it was a batch of goods. Guns and ammunition!”
"arms!?"
