Outside Taohu County, Yuanshui passes around the city.

In winter, when the dry season enters, the river surface narrows and many mudflats are exposed.

On the riverbed, there are many sand mining trucks going back and forth, dragging the river sand from the riverbed to a sand factory not far from the river bank.

These river sand are high-quality building materials. After processing in sand factories, they can be sold at a good price. Naturally, those sand factories will not miss the opportunity in winter and are rushing to prepare for the business in the coming year.

A sand factory next to the river bank is different from other sand factories and looks a bit deserted.

The sand like a hill is piled up everywhere in the center of the sand factory, and the innermost is a simple iron shed.

There were several people sitting in the shed, all of which were shaved with flat heads and looked bad-looking.

"Brother Yong..."

"Speak if you have anything, don't hesitate."

It turns out that these people are Wang Hongfei's brothers, one of the men with dark skin and medium height is Wu Yong.

"Brother Yong, we brothers think that Brother Fei has done a bit too much about the Ming Dynasty." said one person.

"It is certainly wrong for him to beat Brother Fei in Ming Dynasty, but Brother Fei did this a bit hurt the brothers' hearts." Another person continued.

Another person said, "Brother Fei is unreasonable. He treats Daming like this today, and maybe he can treat us like this in the future. Can he still call him brother when he is treated like this?"

Wu Yong held a pair of tongs in his hand and was fiddling with the charcoal in the brazier.

The charcoal fire was as bright as his face, and it was unpredictable.

"It's over, this matter is over, so don't mention it again in the future."

Wu Yong was also extremely annoyed by Wang Hongfei's behavior that day. Wang Hongfei was too chaotic and only cared about his own feelings, but hurt the hearts of the other brothers.

Even though Kong Daming was wrong, Kong Daming followed Wang Hongfei for many years and did so much for everyone over the years, but ended up being treated like this.

But from Wu Yong's standpoint, he must bond with these brothers and unite everyone closely, and never let these brothers be divided.

"Brother Yong, brothers can only count on you."

"I said, don't mention this in the future!"

Wu Yong spoke fiercely and stopped his brothers from making up for the plan to make the matter happen.

Everyone was a little embarrassed by his yelling. For a moment, everyone fell into silence and stopped talking.

"I'm sorry, I'm a little bit more serious just now. I know you have a lot of complaints about Brother Fei's approach to the Ming Dynasty, but Brother Fei has always been like this. Please be considerate."

“…”

Although Wu Yong took the initiative to apologize to everyone, everyone looked at the charcoal fire in the brazier with dull eyes, and the atmosphere was still dull.

"Yeah, there are people here, I thought there was no one."

Just when everyone was speechless, they heard a man's voice coming from outside the sand factory.

A man wearing a black cotton coat, a shiny big back head, and a shiny big leather shoes walked in.

"What are you doing?"

A little brother pointed at the person in front of Wu Yong and asked a question.

"Aren't you a sand factory here? I'll buy river sand."

"Now in winter, your family is still building a house?" the younger brother asked with a bad attitude.

"There are so many covers. I'm afraid that the sand from your sand factory will not be available."

"Why are we talking about it? Our sand factory is so big that we can't supply a small broken house?"

"Boy, don't be too arrogant, don't be too full of words."

Seeing that the man's face had not changed color and was not at all panic, and he was fearless when he heard his words, he guessed that the person's origin might not be simple, so he immediately stopped his subordinates and calmed them down.

When the man walked into the shed, Wu Yong thrust his chin at a younger brother and signaled to give up a stool to sit for the man in front of him.

The man was not polite, and moved a stool and sat down against the brazier.

“What’s the name?”

"The surname is Xu and Ming, you can call me Brother Xu, where are you?"

Before the words were finished, the little brothers around Wu Yong couldn't sit still and pointed at Xu Ming's nose and cursed, "What are you? How dare we Brother Yong call you brother?"

Xu Ming was not anxious or impatient, but just smiled faintly and said, "I didn't lose anything if I shout now. Besides, if I don't shout now, I will have no chance in the future."

Hearing Xu Ming's tone became more and more arrogant, the younger brothers couldn't help but take action.

Wu Yong glanced at him and drank his younger brother, "What are you doing! There is nothing you have to do here, go down first!"

"Brother Yong, be careful. This bastard dares to touch you. We can't let him get out of this door!" Several younger brothers gritted their teeth at Xu Ming, but due to Wu Yong's attitude, they did not dare to treat him, so they could only retreat in disappointment.

When everyone around and around had left, Wu Yong looked at Xu Ming several times and said coldly: "You are not here to buy sand."

Xu Ming smiled generously and said, "Of course, how much money is worth? If I really want to buy sand, I can't buy it, so why do you come to your small sand factory?"

"Then what are you doing?"

"I'll buy someone."

"What's the meaning!"

"Buy you."

After a conversation between the two, a layer of white sweat emerged from Wu Yong's forehead.

What does Xu Ming mean by "buy you" mean? Is it to buy Wu Yong's life or is it a different meaning? As the object of being bought, Wu Yong stared at Xu Ming without hesitation.

"Don't be nervous, don't be nervous."

Xu Ming raised his hands and waved it in front of him, indicating that he was not in danger.

"I have no malice. This time I came here just to tell you something for my boss. He likes you and wants you to follow him in the future."

"Who is your boss?"

"You don't need to know this. My boss never reveals his identity to anyone."

Wu Yong sneered: "I don't even dare to say the name, I'm embarrassed to let me follow him in the future? I think you are here to make a fool of yourself and deliberately find fault!"

Xu Ming was not in a hurry and smiled and said, "It seems that you are a little dissatisfied with Wang Hongfei. When I told me that our boss wanted you, you did not refuse immediately, but asked about our boss's origin."

"I asked if it was my business, what did it have to do with you? You don't have to use your speculation to press on me."

"Is that so? But why did I hear that you seem to have some objections to Wang Hongfei?" Xu Ming was still the same as before, not rushing, but instead broke down Wu Yong's defense line step by step.

"It's a fiction."

Xu Ming said again: "It seems that my news is inaccurate? It's not that you have any objections to Wang Hongfei, but that your brothers below have any objections to Wang Hongfei?"
