Chapter 28 Operational Planning

Although the small wooden box containing the ocean that Mr. Xiong sent him then was one size smaller, and the ocean that was packed in the small wooden box was a thinner layer, after counting the number of oceans, Na Jiu's originally gloomy face finally looked a little sunny. But not long after, Na Jiu's eyes looked at Xiang Youbao, there was a little uneasiness.

It was like a worm that was hibernating in Master Na Jiu's belly. When Master Na Jiu's secretly glanced at him for the third time, he smiled and said to Master Na Jiu's happy words: "My uncle, just put your heart in your stomach! These oceans are all earned by selling the Seven Killing Scorpions you served, and they have nothing to do with me!"

When she heard Xiang Youbao say this, Master Na Jiu's face rarely blushed: "You can't say that... You can't say that, thanks to this little bit of gold and stone, and the prescription for some gold and stone, you took it out. Logically, you have to count your dividend money no matter what...."

He waved his hand readily, and Xiang Youbao smiled at Master Na Jiu with a playful look on his face and said, "Then you think you are your junior nephew and I should pay the house and meals you should live in your house. If you are embarrassed to accept it, then you can give it to me and I will hand it over to my junior sister?"

As if he was stung by a scorpion, Master Na Jiu suddenly hugged the small box containing the ocean: "Why do you have to pay for that second time?! I have to save this ocean well, and it will be your junior sister's dowry money in the future!"

After hearing half of the conversation, Nalan, who walked into the house with two plates of dumplings, glared at Master Na Jiu with a angrily: "If you are so disgusted with your daughter, you are so obsessed with it? Then tomorrow, I will go out to the nest outside the city and go to the shed to mat the shed, so that you can't feel uncomfortable in front of you!"

He hurriedly squeezed out a smile at Nalan. Master Najiu completely lost his father's appearance: "Look at what my daughter said... If your father loses you, he will have to be hungry in the house and unload the tiles in less than three days, right?

With a forced face tense, Nalan originally wanted to say something else, but looking at Master Na Jiu's lazy look with a flattering smile, he couldn't help laughing: "Look at you, you are so old, you don't look a little serious?"

When she helped Nalan put the dumplings on the table, Xiang Youbao laughed so hard that he couldn't see her teeth: "It's better for my junior sister to love people, look at the food that is full of... I'll just eat this during the Chinese New Year?"

Pushing a plate of steaming dumplings in front of Xiang Youbao, Nalan put a few purple-skinned garlic next to the dumplings: "Why don't you eat it while it's hot? If you eat it, you can't block your mouth..."

Looking at the plate of dumplings that were obviously less, and then looking at the plate of dumplings that were piled up in front of Xiang Youbao, Master Na Jiu couldn't help but sigh in a strange way: "It's said that girls are going outward, and this is really said..."

A gentle snorted from his nostrils, Nalan shook his waist-length braid and turned toward the outside of the house: "I'll go and pour the hot three-liang Hengshui Laobai!"

He deliberately pretended to be anxious, and Master Na Jiu shouted at the top of his voice: "Don't..."

He reached out and pinched a few purple-skinned garlic and peeled it in his hand. Xiang Youbao didn't rush to move the plate of dumplings in front of him. Instead, he pondered at Master Na Jiu who had already started to wave his chopsticks and ate: "Uncle Master, I'll discuss a serious matter with you!"

He raised his hand and pointed to the empty dry pond in the courtyard, and then gestured to the surrounding rooms. The sound of the leopard was more or less a bit of bewitching: "No matter whether you are happy or not, if you are happy or not, if the Huozhengmen re-established the banner, you have already spoken out in front of everyone. There will be no fewer people coming to the door to cause trouble. At that time... are you going to use the Siheyuan where you live as the hall of Huozhengmen?"

With dumplings stuffed with mouths, Master Na Jiu blinked his eyes and responded to Xiang Youbao in a vague way: "You dead child...what are you doing wrong ideas?"

He reached out and handed the peeled purple-skinned garlic to Master Na Jiu. Xiang Youbao's eyes were circling quickly: "I heard from my master that when the banner of Huozhengmen was still poking, he didn't say that the filial piety of the people in the sect gave to the head during the festival. Those players who wanted to ask for a way to serve beasts would never have time to go to the door!"

After taking a bite of garlic, Master Na Jiu nodded in a depressed manner: "That's the case! Huozhengmen was a disciple of two hundred inside and outside the year, and there were eighteen who could hang the Huozhengmen beast teeth talisman on his chest. He was known as the Eighteen Arhats of the Huozhengmen back then! Thinking back then..."

Seeing that Mr. Na Jiu was about to bring the topic to the year when Pangu opened the world, Xiang Youbao quickly pushed another head of garlic to Mr. Na Jiu: "I heard from Master that someone raised a Hai Dongqing back then, but I don't know what happened, but he just didn't fly or eat, and he was about to lose. At that time, an old man in Huozhengmen took action himself, and he rescued the Hai Dongqing back for seven days and seven nights?"

Just ate a dumpling with garlic. Master Na Jiu waved his chopsticks and smiled disdainfully: "The difficult ones don't know, but it's not difficult for those who know! It's so mysterious. In fact, the old man Ji wants to continue this matter with more! Save Yu Hai Dongqing and took two big yellow croakers! It's still that master, who lives in Daxing now, is still playing with eagles. I heard that he has also taken many disciples... Oh my daughter, it's still you really love your father!"

He put the hot three-liang Hengshui Lao Baigan at Master Na Jiu's hand. Nalan ignored him and looked at Master Na Jiu with a flattering smile. He just sat down at the table and slowly ate it with a small plate of dumplings that had just been out of the pot.

After glanced at Nalan's plate of dumplings that were obviously much shriveled, Xiang Youbao said quietly to Master Na Jiu who had just drunk a small cup of Hengshui, "That's what I'm talking about! Think about it, if the banner of Huozhengmen was set up, it doesn't matter how many apprentices you have recruited. Just these players in Sijiu City came to our door to ask us for help, how much ocean can you get in that day? Regardless of the people who can serve these things, they are almost all who have a lot of spare money in their hands. How small can their hands be? If you calculate this, those oceans in your hands will not be anything at that time!"

Drinking the old Baigan of Hengshui squeakingly, Master Na Jiu slowly put down the chopsticks in his hand: "It's really reasonable..."

I pointed to the courtyard that was not too spacious while the iron was hot. The meaning of instigation in the words of leopards was obvious: "But when they came, they looked at the scene in our courtyard, and I was afraid that I would have to discount your ability first! The old sayings have been said that Buddha relies on gold clothes, and people relies on clothes. Since we have erected the golden signboard of the Fire Head Gate, then the scene has to be like that, right?"

Sucking her teeth, Master Na Jiu was obviously moved by Xiang Youbao's words, and hesitated to Xiang Youbao and said, "Then what do you mean...What's the charter?"

Smiling cunningly, Xiang Youbao reached out to fill the wine cup for Master Na Jiu: "When the banner of Huozhengmen was still there, what was that scene? Uncle Master, please tell me in detail?"

Originally, the amount of light and the amount of talk after drinking, Na Jiuye suddenly became energetic: "The Huozhengmen of the past was worthy of the 49th city! The entrance of the hall was poked on the street of Zhushikouer. There were eight red glass cage lanterns in front of the old varnished gate, which could still be wandering with the wind. Every night, the golden red candles made from the palace were lit in the lamp. Just look at the flames together, without a pot of smoke, the eight red glass cage lanterns were wandering around like meteors! The shadow paintings of the eight big beasts of snakes, scorpions, eagles, dogs, monkeys, chickens, rats, and cows were called the light of the big candle, and they could be vividly lit up and down a street!"

As if he was recalled by the narration of Na Jiu, Nalan also put down his chopsticks and sighed quietly: "When I was a child, I also went to the hall to play! In the big house where I entered the inside and outside, there were so many things served by people, which were more lively than in the Wansheng Garden! I still remember that at that time, a player brought a golden monkey from Fanjing Mountain in Guizhou. It was almost gone, and the golden monkey was unwilling to eat it. I just mixed the chestnuts with medicine and coaxed the golden monkey to eat it..."

Looking at Nalan lovingly, the laughter of Najiu Master was full of pampering: "You silly daughter, I was so stupid that I was always guarding the golden monkey for three days, but my eyelids didn't even close! After three days, the golden monkey asked you to save it, but your little face turned into a monkey!"

Turning around her neck, Xiang Youbao looked back and forth at Master Na Jiu and Nalan who were immersed in the memories, and seized the opportunity and said in harmony: "Since the Huozhengmen had such a brilliant scene back then, uncle, don't you want to see Huozhengmen open the hall again at Zhushikou? Junior sister, you could have saved a golden monkey back then. With your current skills, how many good things can you save?"

He raised his hand to wipe the tears from the corners of his eyes, and Master Na Jiu sniffed heavily: "Today's old white dry in Hengshui... is choking! It's a good word, but when the Huozhengmen's scroll hall was dispersed, the entrance of Huozhengmen was also sold, and the money he bought was also called a few people in Huozhengmen and old. The original entrance of Huozhengmen is now... Daughter, what is the sale in that place?"

Frowning, Nalan thought and said in a low voice: "I have opened a soybean garden, but I don't know why, it was closed half a year ago. Now... it seems to be deserted, and every now and then, some people use the big house as a warehouse."

Looking at Nalan in confusion, Xiang Youbao asked inquiry: "Can the big mansion on the street facing Zhushikou'er have been idle for half a year, but they are only used as a yard every now and then? Are you remembering correctly, junior sister?"

Shaking his head gently, Nalan said with certainty: "You can't be wrong! I went out to buy tea this afternoon, and saw the big mansion tightly closed the door. However, there were a few green-skinned gangsters under Mr. Xiong standing at the door, and I don't know what they were doing?"

After pondering for a while, Xiang Youbao smiled at Master Na Jiu who was already half drunk and said, "If Uncle Master thinks it is appropriate... I will go and see what the situation is in the big mansion tomorrow. If it is really appropriate, then let's rent the big mansion first and then choose a good day to re-establish the Huozhengmen gate?"

With loud burps, Master Na Jiu waved his hand very proudly: "Just do it according to your wishes, don't ask me! You dead child... you have many ideas!"

After agreeing neatly, Xiang Youbao turned his head and looked at Nalan who was thinking intently: "Junior Sister Lao Jia, can you please give me two more garlic? I asked my uncle to eat them all..."

After twisting his body, Nalan pretended to be reluctant and slowly stood up: "The score is so big? You have to send someone a garlic, right?"

Having said that, Nalan still obediently walked out of the house. Taking advantage of Nalan's moment of walking out of the house, Xiang Youbao quickly grabbed the chopsticks and transferred seven or eight of the dumplings from his plate to Nalan's plate. However, he also transferred the obviously shriveled dumplings from the Nalan plate to his plate, and pulled his cheeks and chewed them. In just a moment, only three or four of the dumplings piled up were left.

He returned to the house with a few heads of garlic. When Nalan saw the leopard who was sucking her neck, she immediately said in a daze: "What are you doing? He asked someone to bring you garlic. Before the garlic was brought, you were eating it almost the same?"

She swept the last few shriveled cabbage-filled dumplings into her mouth. Xiang Youbao smiled silly and muttered to Nalan: "Isn't the junior sister good at craftsmanship? The dumplings with cabbage-filled dumplings can taste meat!"

Looking up at the few obviously plump vegetables and meat dumplings on his plate, Nalan suddenly turned red. He raised his hand and threw the two garlics into Xiang Youbao's arms. Nalan grabbed the table a few steps, picked up the plate and ran towards his house...
