The invasion of the abyss begins with the Laughing at the Ming Dynasty

Chapter 10 Fuwei Escort Agency
"Little brother, do you want to sell this tiger skin?"

After the Wang family left, a few unfamiliar faces who had not yet left the courtyard wall stood outside the broken gate of the Shen family. The big man in the lead clasped his hands and shouted.

"May I ask who your distinguished guest is?"

Seeing that others were so polite, Shen Yuanliang straightened his messy clothes and asked politely, but he remained alert, with the spear in his hand ready to go.

"You are not worthy of being called a distinguished guest. We are escorts from the Fuwei Escort Agency. You can call me Old Zhengtou or Escort Zhengtou."

"May I ask your name, little brother?"

Wearing a dark brown suit with the bat pattern of the Fuwei Escort Agency embroidered on the cuffs, Zheng, who had a slightly weathered face, seemed not to notice Shen Yuanliang's alert look and continued to speak with a smile.

Before, Shen Yuanliang had a stern expression on his face as he stabbed at the burly man brought by the young master of the Wang family, and killed him with one strike. His move was clean and neat, like that of a seasoned veteran, which made these bodyguards and porters, who were used to living on the edge of a knife, stunned.

Only when you have strength can you have status and be respected by others.

Shen Yuanliang demonstrated his worth through his actions, and the experienced Zheng Biaotou decided to make friends with Shen Yuanliang so that he would appear polite.

How about trying someone else? There is a huge gap between the Jianghu people and the lower-class people, and the status of the two is very different.

"So you are the hero of Fuwei Escort Agency. Nice to meet Escort Captain Zheng and all the escorts."

"My name is Shen Yuanliang. The 'Shen' in Shen Wansan, the 'Yuan' in the beginning of a new year, and the 'Liang' in the pure and kind character."

Shen Yuanliang scratched his head and introduced his name with a sincere expression, no longer as cold and ruthless as before.

"He has a good character, but he is not a good person at all."

The contrast between Shen Yuanliang's before and after was too great, which made Zheng Biaotou and the others a little uncomfortable. They awkwardly agreed and muttered to themselves.

"It turns out to be Brother Shen. Please forgive me for disturbing you by asking for a meeting without your permission!"

"In a few months, it will be the 50th birthday of Chief Escort Lin of our Fuwei Escort Agency. We are worried about what gift to give him!"

"This tiger skin in front of you is just right. We want to buy it as a birthday gift. Little brother, name your price!"

With a smile on his face the whole time, Escort Leader Zheng explained the whole cause and effect clearly without being overbearing. He also threw the price issue to Shen Yuanliang, handling the matter in a very sophisticated manner.

The escort business relies on "favors". You respect me and I respect you. Escorting is a job that involves crossing mountains and capturing villages, with blood flowing like a river and corpses strewn all over the place.

If that were the case, the Fuwei Escort Agency would not have spread across the two capitals and thirteen provinces, with its goods shipped all over the world, becoming the most famous escort agency in the world.

Of course, necessary force is also very important. It is the decisive factor for the existence of the escort agency. The strength of your force determines how much face the people in the world will give you.

"This tiger skin is well preserved, and the fur has excellent color. I got it with great difficulty."

"For the sake of Fuwei Escort Agency, one hundred and eighty taels of silver."

Shen Yuanliang lowered his head and thought for a moment, then gestured with his fingers and said without question.

Generally, the purchase price of a high-quality tiger skin like the one in Shen Yuanliang's hand is between one hundred and sixty taels of silver and two hundred taels of silver. Taking the middle price, one hundred and eighty taels is suitable for both parties.

"Brother Shen, it's really good! Just this price. Here, this is one hundred and eighty taels of silver."

"These silver notes can be exchanged at any bank in the world."

Upon hearing this, Zheng Biaotou's face became even brighter, like a blooming flower. He happily took out a few silver bills from his pocket and handed them to Shen Yuanliang.

Traveling around the world, sleeping in the open air all day long, it is impossible for Zheng Biaotou and his men to carry a large amount of gold and silver from the south to the outside of the pass. After all, wealth should not be exposed. The best way to travel around the world is to exchange silver for silver notes and then hide the silver notes in a place unknown to others.

"Captain Zheng, does the tiger skin need to be tanned and processed?"

After taking the banknote and counting it briefly, Shen Yuanliang was very satisfied and straightforward after confirming it. As expected of a man of the world, he was efficient in doing things.

"Brother Shen, we will tan it ourselves when we get back, so we won't bother you."

"By the way, Brother Shen, are you interested in joining our Fuwei Escort Agency? The salary is negotiable."

Not only is he brave and resourceful, he is also very considerate and his way of dealing with people is impeccable. Escort Captain Zheng is even more satisfied with Shen Yuanliang and hopes to introduce him to Escort Captain Lin.

After all, the Fuwei Escort Agency was too big and they were short of escorts, porters, and even escort leaders.

Every year, Fuwei Escort Agency sends gifts and expensive gifts to all major sects in the hope that the outer disciples of the major sects will choose their Fuwei Escort Agency after they come down the mountain and provide them with excellent talents.

"Captain Zheng, I appreciate your kindness."

"The Later Jin is eyeing us covetously. There is constant war and chaos in southern Liaoning, and bandits are rampant. I cannot abandon my family and go to Fuzhou alone."

Shen Yuanliang could only refuse Zheng Biaotou's kindness, after all, it was impossible for him to leave southern Liaoning.

It is easy to fish in troubled waters and heroes emerge in troubled times. For Shen Yuanliang, the southern Liaoning region, which is about to fall into war, is a good place to make achievements.

In addition, Shen Yuanliang was unwilling to accept that his father's revenge had not been avenged and the Later Jin Dynasty had not been destroyed!
"Alas! That's such a pity."

"Brother Shen, if you have time to come to Fuzhou City in the future, you can come to Fuwei Escort Agency, and we will treat you well."

Everyone has their own aspirations, so Leader Zheng didn't say much. He picked up the huge tiger skin and left with his brothers.

"Brother Liang, Fuwei Escort Agency is the most prestigious escort agency in the martial arts world."

"With the recommendation of Escort Captain Zheng, it would be easy for you to join the Fuwei Escort Agency. This is a rare opportunity. Why did you refuse?"

Looking at the people from the Fuwei Escort Agency leaving, Shi Tou, with bruises on the corners of his eyes, touched his head, feeling very confused.

For ordinary people, even the lower-level gangsters, the Fuwei Escort Agency is a behemoth, a height that they cannot even hope to reach.

Joining the Fuwei Escort Agency would earn him several taels of silver a month and he would never have to worry about food and drink. This was a good thing for Shen Yuanliang at the moment.

"We've become rich by killing a white-browed tiger. Now the most important thing for us is to practice martial arts well and strive to break through to the third level of Qi Refining."

"Mother, we have money now. It would be best to redeem the fertile land and jewelry that we mortgaged as soon as possible."

Looking at Shi Tou, his mother, and Wan'er who were puzzled, Shen Yuanliang's ears turned red, he touched his nose, and explained vaguely.

Shen Yuanliang was not sure about the real reason. Should he tell them that the Fuwei Escort Agency would be wiped out by the Qingcheng Sect in the near future without leaving a single person alive?
Besides, a real man is born between heaven and earth, how can he be depressed and inferior to others for long?

After all, he is a unique "existence". Shen Yuanliang is very proud and does not take anyone in the world seriously. It is impossible for him to work under someone else in this life.

"Okay, it's all up to you!"

Seeing her son's insincere words, Shen Chenshi did not get to the bottom of it. It is rare to be ignorant in life, and one does not need to know everything.

Isn't it normal for Shen Yuanliang to have his own secrets when he grows up?
