Chapter 44: Black Clothes Covering the Sky

  There were as many as 400 to 500 people, far exceeding Han Yu's imagination. Moreover, there were men and women, old and young, it was like a big melting pot.

  As soon as they entered the inner office, Han Yu said: "Liang Huan, you go out and announce our employment rules. Those under 18 years old, over 40 years old, married with children, only child, drug addicts, and women are not employed. Remember these unemployable categories, and follow this standard in the future."

  "Ah?" Liang Huan and Chen Jiao's faces, which had been full of triumphant expressions, suddenly froze.

  "What's wrong? Do as I say." Han Yu said coldly.

  "Oh, yeah!" Liang Huan fiercely glared at Chen Xiao and turned around to run out.

  "Boss, drink some water."

  Han Yu took over the tea water that Chen Jiao poured and said without raising an eyebrow, "Those miscellaneous people are all found by you to make up the number, right?"

  Chen Jiao's old face suddenly turned red, and he said with an embarrassed expression: "There are also many who really want to mix in this way, so..."

  "So you brought them all to fool me into being happy? Look at those 15 or 16-year-old kids, they're still in school. What did you bring them here for? Those 40 or 50-year-old old men, can they even hold a knife?"

  Han Yu rolled her eyes in exasperation: "Go, help Liang Huan pick people out and send back those who are not suitable."

  "Yes." Chen Xiang hastily replied and ran out.

  "This kid's got some potential." Suddenly, Gu Ziwen spoke up and said: "I'll take him with me."

  Han Yu smiled and nodded: "That's really great, I was thinking of how to get rid of this kid to you anyway, so he'll be yours from now on."

  ……

  In the end, only one hundred and eighty people were left, of which one hundred and thirty-two were originally from the Bamboo Leaf Gang.

  Looking at these hundreds of Chinese characters, looking at them respectfully saluting themselves, Han Yu's heart was slightly moved.

  The first floor hall of Ximen Entertainment Hall is very large. Although it can accommodate nearly two hundred people, it does not feel particularly crowded.

  Han Yu and Gu Ziwu stood on the stage, while Chen Jiao and Liang Huan were standing behind them with excited faces. The two did not expect that Han Yu would invite them onto the stage, which undoubtedly confirmed their status among the crowd.

  "Welcome everyone to join Ze Tian. From today on, I am your boss, Hei Yi!" Han Yu found a place to sit down and said with a light smile.

  "See the boss." Chen Xiao and Liang Huan hastily led the way in greeting.

  "See you later, boss!"

  "Alright, alright, let's not be formal about this. Today is just a gathering, brothers getting to know each other. Everyone relax, I'm treating today, right here. Now give everyone five minutes to find a seat and get comfortable, because today we're going all out!"

  "Laodah is treating us, you guys mustn't be polite!" Chen Jiao chuckled and helped to warm up the atmosphere.

  Everyone responded with enthusiasm. The table was ready-made, and everyone found a stool to sit down on.

  The chef who had been ready for a long time started to serve dishes one by one, beer, white wine and red wine were brought out, Han Yu sat next to the table with them drinking and getting familiar.

  The emotions between men develop fastest at the dinner table, this is an eternal truth.

  When Han Yu was drunk and unaware, all the younger brothers recognized that this young man had single-handedly destroyed the Bamboo Leaf Gang, killed Xu Huaying, and now became their new boss, a much kinder young man than they had imagined.

  "Wow, this kid can really drink." Han Yu let out a belch, looked at his little brother who had mostly passed out on the ground, and smiled smugly before passing out himself.

  Although he had a great capacity for liquor, he couldn't withstand the sheer number of people. Just now he was still holding on, but seeing his own brilliant results, his mind relaxed, and how could he hold on any longer?

  The curtain of heaven was formed on such a winter afternoon, silently and quietly among a group of drunkards!

  At that time, they, including the sunshine, air and water outside, were all unaware that the Umbrella would really become an existence that could block out even the sky in a few years!

  However, not everyone was drunk. At least Chen Jiao and Liang Huan were still sober, while Gu Ziwen didn't even drink a drop of wine, so Han Yu was carried back by him.

  ……

  "It seems that this wine is really not drinkable!" Han Yu knocked on the back of his head, which was aching slightly, and recalled the blankness of last night, feeling as if his brain was about to explode.

  He slept for a whole night after getting drunk last night, and didn't even know how he got back until this morning when Murong Piaoxue gave him water to drink.

  "You didn't sleep all night, did you?" Han Yu asked weakly, looking at Murong Piaoxue's eyes with bloodshot.

  "No, I slept for a few hours. These past few days, my sleep hasn't been long. It's nothing." Murong Piaoxue handed the cup to him and watched as he drank it all up before asking, "How are you feeling now? Any better?"

  Han Yu nodded: "Much better. Where's Little Snake?"

  Murong Piaoxue's mouth twitched, and since learning that Gouzi Wen's nickname was Dark Night Snake Lord, Han Yu had privately started calling him Little Snake.

  Every time this happens, it's always Gǔzi Wén this little snake who gets the most angry.

  As expected, the door was pushed open and a middle-aged man with a hint of silver in his eyebrows walked in. He growled in a hoarse voice, expressing his discontent: "Either call me Dark Night or Snake King, don't call me Little Snake, I hate that name!"

  "Alright, Dark Night Serpents, what's their current situation?"

  Gao Ziwen's silver-white eyebrows twitched slightly, and he let out a cold hum, pretending to have heard nothing, saying: "Too weak, needs training."

  Murong Piaoxue heard them talking and walked out.

  Tang Ziwu stood at the window, his eyes alertly gazing outward: "And it's rigorous training."

  Han Yu nodded and said: "Their special training will be handed over to you. I believe that you can definitely make them change their ways."

  "How about you?"

  "I'm going to take a look in town." Han Yu said matter-of-factly.

  Everyone has their own strengths, and everything is used to its fullest potential. Although Gǔ Zǐ Wén is an assassin, a quite skilled one at that, someone of his caliber should be training other assassins rather than helping him train underlings, but unfortunately, the number of capable people under his command is just too few.

  So Han Yu could only let this big killer serve as a temporary instructor.

  PS: I've been a bit busy these two days, hehe, I guess everyone is the same, after all it's Chinese New Year, bear with me brothers, will be back to normal soon...
