You, too, from past experiences know these little hoodlums are actually most loyal. Yet you still took out a piece of silver from your pocket and tossed it to five cents.
Five cents caught the silver and quickly said, "Old Shu, we..."
"Enough of the nonsense. If you take me as a brother, then shut up."
Your words moved the three of them to tears. For them, they are the lowest of society's hoodlums, without father or mother, unable to even have three meals a day. In the past, no one paid them any attention, except for you.
You stepped forward and patted the shoulders of the three five cents, earnestly saying, "Do well, once the matter is done, there's no need to leave, stay with Ah-Shui."
"Yes!" The three of them immediately responded, delighted.
"Old Shu, I'll lead them. I'm more familiar with the county than them, and I know the County Magistrate's habits well," Zhang Shui seemed worried the three might fail, and from your actions, it's clear this is a very important matter.
