Chapter 221: One Step
"Yes, I thought you wouldn't come." Hou Xiaoge looked at Niu Wa with a happy face and nodded with a smile.
"I promised the boss. I will definitely come after I get the boss's money." Niu Wa said loudly with his head held high.
"Yeah! That's right. I like children who are honest.
"Hey, are there any houses left? Give these kids two rooms and get some food." Hou Xiaoge said to the servant next to him.
"Sir, we do have some, but there's only a large bunk bed left," the waiter said with an apologetic smile.
Actually, there are houses, but these kids are too dirty and affect the hotel environment. The waiter doesn't want them to stay in a good room, otherwise he will be scolded by the owner.
"As long as there is a place to stay, it's up to you to arrange it! Here are two dollars as a reward for picking someone up." Hou Xiaoge took out two dollars and threw them to the servant.
"Thank you for the reward, sir."
"Niu Wa, you guys follow him! You've been traveling all day, so have a good rest at night." Hou Xiaoge instructed Niu Wa, who was standing aside timidly.
"Yes, boss!" Niu Wa said loudly.
After Hou Xiaoge finished speaking, a waiter led the way and left with a lamp.
"Let's go, little ones! Wash up first, then eat.
I don’t know what the big boss likes about you, to be so nice to you.” Another clerk muttered as he walked with a lamp in his hand.
At this time, most restaurants are closed and only the night market is brightly lit.
There wasn't anything delicious, so the guy asked the chef on duty to make a stew for the kids with the leftover meat and vegetables.
A large bowl was brought up, and the children ate it with rice, which was very delicious.
"I haven't eaten meat in a long time. It's so delicious!"
"Niu Wa, how nice it would be if we could eat rice and meat every meal in the future!"
"The boss will definitely let us have enough to eat!" Niu Wa didn't dare to expect to have rice every meal, so he just dared to say that he had enough to eat.
"You idiot, you are dreaming! I can't even think about having rice every day, and you little brats are thinking about it.
You little kids are lucky to be following a big boss, so be content.
The big boss doesn't run a charity, so having steamed bread every meal is a good life!" The servant who led everyone back said with a smile while eating rice in big mouthfuls.
"hey-hey!"
The children thought the same and stopped dreaming.
After eating and drinking, the servant led the children to the large bunk bed in the backyard where the people lived.
The big dormitory is a horizontal wooden bed that can sleep dozens of people. It is usually used by the servants of the inn owner.
Although the conditions are not very good, they are quite friendly to the group of orphans sleeping in the cave on the top of the mountain.
The children did not even uncover their own bedding and fell asleep on the thin, moldy quilt.
The next morning, Hou Xiaoge got up early and exercised in the space.
"The boss is up. Wait a moment. The water for washing will be brought in soon." After Hou Xiaoge opened the door, the servant waiting outside said hurriedly.
"Agui, find a tailor to make clothes for each of those children.
By the way, I'm looking for a dental clinic. I want to rent a small yard to accommodate the children." Hou Xiaoge said to the waiter after washing up.
"okay!"
After breakfast, Hou Xiaoge brought a group of children and followed the dental practitioner to a small courtyard with an entrance.
The monthly rent is five dollars, and the deposit is one month's rent, which is considered a rental of the house.
Hou Xiaoge went out and brought back 100 kilograms of rice and 100 kilograms of flour, which was considered temporary food for these children.
"Niu Wa, here are three dollars and this sign, take it.
I have other things to do and will be leaving in the afternoon. You guys stay here for the time being and don't run around.
At the latest, someone with the same badge will come to find you in half a month, and then you just follow them, understand?" Hou Xiaoge handed a Yanhuang League token to Niu Wa.
"Boss, are you leaving? Can you take us with you?" Niu Wa said with a confused and nervous look on his face.
"No, you'll be a burden if you follow me.
I am from the Yanhuang League. I passed by and saw you and felt sorry for you, so I decided to accept you as my disciples.
From now on you are members of the Yanhuang Alliance, so don’t call me boss.
Also, you must remember that the boss who saved you is the leader of the Yanhuang Alliance, not me.
As for me, my name is Han Li, and I am a Xiangzhu of Yanhuang League. I am responsible for helping the leader of the league to rescue orphans like you. You can call me Han Xiangzhu." Hou Xiaoge established his image for these children.
"I understand. Master Han Xiang." Several children nodded.
“I’m leaving, and when the tailor’s shop has finished making the clothes, they’ll bring them over.
Also, it's a mess outside, so just stay here for a few days and don't run around.
Here, Niu Wa, these are a few knives and a crossbow, take them. If someone bullies you, protect yourself.
Of course, if you leave after I leave before the Yanhuang League comes to pick you up, you will no longer be considered Yanhuang League disciples." Hou Xiaoge took a bag from his horse and threw it in front of the group, then left without looking back.
"Niu Wa, the boss is leaving now?" a child asked with a puzzled look on his face.
"Call me Master Han Xiang!" Niu Wa said as he looked at the weapon he carried.
"Niu Wa, Dong Ge and the others are still outside the city! The incense master is not a liar, shall I go find them?" said a little friend.
"Get it!"
At this time, Ma Wendong and his companions were still wandering outside the Fulai Hotel. They did not dare to go in or ask questions, fearing that they would be beaten out.
It was not until the servant who was seeing Hou Xiaoge off saw them and asked what they were doing that he showed them the way.
Ma Wendong and his companions could not read, so they could only ask along the way. When they arrived near the alley, they didn't know which house the door was, so they could only shout loudly.
"Niu Wa, where are you?"
"Dog, Ergou!"
"Chicken baby!"
Several people shouted around with all their might, hoping to get a response from that household.
"Crench!"
"Brother Dong, come here, we are here." Niu Wa ran out excitedly and waved to several people.
"Hey! I finally found you. Are you okay?" Ma Wendong ran to the door in one step.
"I told you that the boss is a good person, no, the incense master is a good person, but you still don't believe it, Dong Ge.
Look, this house was rented to us by the incense master for a month." Niu Wa said proudly.
"Wow, you guys, you've met a big boss. He'll rent a brick house for you directly." Curly and the others looked envious.
"hey-hey!"
After a tour, Niu Wa told the few people the details and then showed them the token of the Yanhuang Alliance.
Eighteen or nineteen years old is the age of middle school students, and the Yanhuang League is obviously a gang organization, and it is so rich. Ma Wendong and others' eyes sparkled when they heard it.
"Niu Wa, haven't you told Master Han Xiang whether you are still going to accept people?" Ma Wendong asked Niu Wa with a burning gaze.
"I didn't ask, and the incense master didn't say he wouldn't accept anyone." Niu Wa answered honestly.
"Then we also want to join the Yanhuang Alliance. I will go back today and bring all my brothers and sisters here, and then we will join the Yanhuang Alliance together.
Niu Wa, you must speak well to the incense master when the time comes! You must let us join." Ma Wendong said excitedly, pulling Niu Wa's hand.
"That's great, Brother Dong. I've always wanted you to join us so that we can fight together again." Niu Wa looked happy.
While a group of children were cheering, Hou Xiaoge also rode his horse towards Yu City.
As for rescuing Niu Wa, it was just a casual move for Hou Xiaoge. He had other important things to do and could not delay it for too long.
These orphans have no home, so after joining the gang, they can become die-hard members with a little training and care, which is definitely a good thing.
If he is unlucky, at most he will lose dozens of dollars, and he won't lose anything. He can just consider it as helping the families of the soldiers fighting in the War of Resistance.
I got the map yesterday and found out that Lu County is more than 100 kilometers away from Chongqing City, so I have to hurry.
