The prince is very cruel

"I can do any job. I can even be a security guard. For a hundred taels, I'll work until I die!"

Guan Ning didn't know whether to laugh or cry: "Even if I work until I die, it's impossible for me to make a hundred taels. Look at the people in the market, how many of them make more than ten taels?"

The middle-aged man's tone became stiff when he heard this: "This is my price. If you think it is not suitable, you can look elsewhere."

Lou Xinyue frowned. Is he still so bad-tempered?

Just as he was about to speak, Guan Ning stopped him.

He squatted down and said with a smile: "I didn't say it was inappropriate."

The middle-aged man looked puzzled.

"Can you tell me what you used to do first?" Guan Ning raised his eyebrows and took a look at his knuckles, which were covered with calluses. People who often do rough work will not only have calluses on their knuckles.

Such people often hold knives.

"Master, don't worry. I'm not a criminal, nor a slave. I'm just short of money." The middle-aged man thought Guan Ning was worried that he had a criminal record.

Guan Ning shook his head: "Tell me what you do, and then I will decide whether to buy you or not."

The middle-aged man hesitated, and seeing that no one came to ask except Guan Ning, he had no choice but to say, "I used to be a heavy swordsman in the Western Palace Army."

Hearing this, Guan Ning's eyes lit up. Heavy swordsman?

No wonder!

He couldn't help but feel secretly happy. It seemed that he was lucky enough to meet the person he wanted as soon as he arrived.

"What's your name?"

"Shen Lei."

"Here are one hundred taels of silver." Guan Ning took out the money and Shen Lei's eyes focused instantly.

"But if you want to take it, you have to pass one of my tests."

"Test?" Shen Lei was confused.

"Right!" Guan Ning said with a smile, "Now attack me and let me see your strength. If what you say is true, I will buy you and the money will be yours."

Shen Lei's eyes flickered, a hint of joy, but also a hint of hesitation. Looking at the skinny Guan Ning, he couldn't help but say, "I won't hold back when I hit you. Do you want to find someone who knows martial arts?"

Lou Xinyue on the side laughed in silence.

"No, just come directly."

"You only have time for two sips of tea, otherwise I will take back the money." Guan Ning was calm.

Upon hearing this, Shen Lei became anxious and gritted his teeth: "Then I'll come!"

call!

He punched out, bringing with him a gust of wind.

Guan Ning dodged easily by leaning back, without even moving his hands or feet: "Too slow, not strong enough, don't think about showing mercy, otherwise I'm afraid I won't buy you."

Seeing this, Shen Lei's face turned serious. He felt that he had underestimated Guan Ning, so he gritted his teeth and stopped holding back.

"Come again!"

Another punch, obviously faster and with greater force.

Guan Ning dodged and avoided it successfully.

"Come again!" Shen Lei saw this and looked ferocious. He threw another punch with a very stable lower body. His moves were indeed from a military background, not from the underworld.

Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh!

Guan Ning dodged all seven consecutive punches, attracting many onlookers: "Look over there!"

"That lovesick guy got into a fight with someone!"

Shen Lei failed repeatedly, not even being able to touch his sleeves. He was a little angry and completely lost his temper, yelling: "Ah!"

boom!

He overturned a table with his bare hands and rushed out. Guan Ning clearly felt the murderous aura of the battlefield.

Whoops! !

He swung his arm and swept over like a big knife, covering a huge area and with a force comparable to Shengqi's. Guan Ning had nowhere to hide and could only block.

boom!

After a muffled sound, Guan Ning did not move at all, and then kicked out with a powerful force.

Shen Lei staggered back several steps and almost fell down the stairs, looking a little embarrassed.

"you……"

"I lost." He looked grim, unable to understand how he could have lost to a weak scholar. Although he was unwilling, he lost. He wanted the one hundred taels on the ground very much, but he was too embarrassed to ask for it.

If you can’t even beat your employer, why should you get paid?

Guan Ning smiled, and he was certain in his heart that this man must be a heavy swordsman in the army, and his character was also good.

"You have good skills and are considered a leader in the army. Why haven't you been promoted and are just an ordinary heavy swordsman?"

Shen Lei lowered his head and knelt in his original seat again, laughing at himself: "People like us can only rush to the front when we are ready to die."
