Chapter 220: The Situation
Having repelled two strong enemies, the alliance of the four factions gathered again and entered Changsha City.
In the past, the alliance of the four factions was overwhelmed by the constant influx of rivers and lakes in Changsha City, but this time the situation was completely different. The four sects actually joined forces with the government and dispatched thousands of officers and soldiers, led by the masters of each faction, step by step, street by street to regain lost territory, and all the people they encountered were killed. When all parties in the city heard the news of the defeat of the Hengshan Pai Sect, they were frightened and demoralized, and they retreated one after another, and were finally driven out of the city.
It was only at this time that the chaotic situation in Changsha City for more than a month was calmed down.
After a great victory, the "Dongting Gang" and the "Three Evils" reoccupied the territory in Changsha City, and the properties and territories of the original small gangs were also taken into their possession.
Hua Bushi had just settled down many affairs in Changsha City, and was escorted back to Wuyang City by his father Hua Tianxiong and second uncle Hua Dihu. For Hua Tianxiong, it doesn't matter what kind of sect territory or the like, the offspring of the Hua family's cigarettes are the top priority, and it is really intolerable for the son to leave his new wife and not come home.
This time, Hua Bushi knew that he couldn't resist, so he had to obediently follow his father on the road. Also on his journey were Yang Jiangyi, Li Hu and Bai Yiling, Yu Qianli in the "Five Little Dogs", and Zhu Hong and Ximen Tong were left in the Changsha rudder.
After the Battle of Gejiabao, Sun Qiaoyun stayed in Changsha to serve Yu Qianli for a few days to recuperate from his injuries, but he also returned to Wuyang one step earlier.
To talk about the harvest of this battle, in addition to the pacification of Changsha City, Hua Bushi also got Chu Yiyi and "Qianhuafang". In the eyes of Young Master Huada, this harvest made him happier than getting forty blocks in Changsha City.
"Evil Dog Gate" following the five halls of Yanwu Hall, Jujin Hall, Shenbing Hall, Baiyao Hall and Dragon and Tiger Hall, the sixth hall "Feiyu Hall" was finally built, the priority of this hall is to find out information and intelligence, and the hall owner is of course Mrs. Yiyi.
Unlike the other five halls, Hua Bushi did not intend to intervene in the management of the "Flying Feather Hall", but handed over the hall to Chu Yiyi to take care of.
When it comes to intelligence gathering, there must be many secrets, including the identity of the eyeliner planted, the channels for transmitting information, etc., and of course the fewer people who know this secret, the better. "Qianhuafang" has its own unique management methods all over the thirteen provinces, and Hua Bushi does not want to change its original operation method, so he simply let Chu Yiyi handle all these affairs.
Therefore, "Feiyutang" has become a very special hall, although it is nominally subordinate to the "Evil Dog Gate", but it is an independent sect, "Thousand Flowers Fang" is still "Thousand Flowers Fang", and the relationship between the "Evil Dog Gate" and Hua Bushi is more like cooperation. The so-called employment is not suspicious, Hua Bushi got the help of Mrs. Yiyi, and he fully trusted her, so he would do so.
However, on the second day after the establishment of the Flying Feather Hall, Chu Yiyi found this young master of Hua University and gave him a big problem.
The problem is the cost of silver taels.
The upper-level organization of the "Thousand Flowers Workshop" was completely destroyed by the Demon Dao, but the eyelines scattered throughout the realms and the channels for transmitting news still existed, and it would take a lot of silver taels to incorporate and utilize these resources, and the future operation would also be a very large expense.
According to Chu Yiyi, if the "Evil Dog Gate" wants to receive all the eyeliner resources of "Qianhuafang", it must come up with at least 100,000 taels of silver, and the subsequent operating costs must also be 50,000 or 60,000 taels per month.
"Qianhuafang" had some accumulated wealth in the past, and there were a lot of industries under the sect, but this time the sect encountered a great disaster, and most of them were snatched away by the people in the Demon Dao, and all kinds of industries were definitely gone, and the remaining little silver taels were not enough to cover the expenses.
After listening to Chu Yiyi's words, Hua Bushi finally understood why "Qianhuafang" has been constantly doing business of selling news and reselling precious items, if there is no way to make money, it will not be able to support this information network all over the thirteen provinces of the Ming Dynasty. It's no wonder that Chu Yiyi was anxious to find a powerful gang to rely on, but Hua Bushi had a feeling that she had been ruthlessly calculated and became a wronged leader.
Yiyifu ** generously stretched out his hand to ask for money, and the young master could only give it generously. 150,000 taels of silver was sold, and even the master Mo Wentian, who was in charge of the money, was distressed for a long time, and the silver taels that could be used in the account of the "Evil Dog Gate" were almost exhausted, and they became poor and white.
This is also the reason why as soon as Hua Bushi returned to Wuyang, he immediately made an appointment with Li Zicheng and sold the weapons in stock. Just because if there is no silver in the account, even the monthly salary of the people under the door will be almost unable to pay.
After happily putting the silver ticket in his pocket, Chu Yiyi immediately resigned to Hua Bushi. She has to go to various realms to contact the eyeliner laid by the "Thousand Flowers Fang" so that she can collect it, and maybe she can also find some of the remaining masters of the sect to use.
The wrongs have already been done, and if the pretty woman changes her mind and wants to abscond with the money, there is no way. Young Master Hua had no objections, and asked affectionately whether Mrs. Yiyi needed him to send someone to protect her on this trip, but Chu Yiyi said no, it was enough to have Meng Huan by her side.
So, Hua Bushi and Chu Yiyi agreed to meet in Wuyang City three months later. Just because three months later, it was close to the time of the legendary "Wanyi Conference", and Hua Bushi would definitely not let go of this opportunity.
Thinking of the "Wanyi Conference", Hua Bushi's desire to earn silver taels was even more urgent. If you don't have enough money, even if you have the opportunity to participate in this 30-year secret trading conference, it will be difficult to buy the ideal thing. And finding a suitable "Zen Sect Internal Strength" for Yang Jiangyi to practice is the goal that Hua Bushi must achieve no matter what.
Another important expense in the current "Vicious Dog Gate" is the training of "Qingyunwei".
In the first battle of Gejiabao, Yue Hanshan broke into battle with a single sword, stabbed six people in a row, and also broke six or seven people. Of the six people who were stabbed, three died on the spot, and the other two were seriously injured. There was only one of the luckiest left, although the injuries were not light, but the sword wound did not cause permanent damage to the body meridians, and after healing, he could still return to the "Qingyun Guard".
In the rivers and lakes, it is a day of licking blood with knives, and it is not uncommon to die or be disabled in the fighting. Hua Bushi had no other way than to give generous condolences to the families of the dead and wounded. The five people lost by "Qingyunwei" had to be recruited and trained again to fill the vacancy of Jianzhen.
The surviving teenagers, after this battle, have all grown a lot, as if they already have a fearless momentum!
Only by not being afraid of injury and bleeding can you become a real warrior, and only by going through life and death can you gain confidence and courage. If they encounter a strong enemy again, even if it is a stronger opponent than Yue Hanshan, these "Qingyun Guards" will definitely perform better than in the first battle, and they will never be so easily affected by the enemy's tactics again.
After this battle, Hua Tianxiong and Hua Dihu looked at each other for "Qingyun Jianzhen", and before that, they did not take these teenage teenagers Jianzhen in their eyes, thinking that it was just a game of children playing at home in Hua Bushi. Especially the second uncle Huadihu, when he heard that "Qingyun Jianzhen" was able to defeat Yue Hanshan, he also went to the martial arts training ground to watch Jianzhen's drills.
After looking at it for a long time, Huadihu was amazed by Jianzhen. Although Hua Bushi's second uncle is as timid as a mouse and never fights with others, he is extremely obsessed with martial arts, and he is also very knowledgeable.
The second uncle, Hua Dihu, was in the name of the master of the Yanwu Hall, and before Hua Bushi opened his mouth to plead, asking him to study a martial art that could be practiced by disciples with more ordinary qualifications. Now that a few months have passed, he has achieved nothing, and he can't do anything, but seeing that Hua Bushi got such exquisite swordsmanship and jianzhen out of nowhere, it really makes him a little old-fashioned.
Hua Bushi didn't seem to care at all, and said bluntly that the second uncle didn't have to be anxious, he could start slowly, and it was not too late to succeed in ten or eight years. Hua Dihu's face was even more unbearable, and his face sank at the moment, and he threatened to create a martial art comparable to the "Qingyun Seven Swords" within half a year, and turned around and left after finishing speaking.
Hua Bushi saw that the plan was achieved, and he was secretly happy in his heart, and hurriedly gave the "White Crane Soaring Palm" from Sun Qiaoyun that day to the second uncle. This set of palm techniques in the "Thousand Gong Diagram" is already a C-level upper-level martial arts, plus the previous "Pin Gong Pavilion" hidden in several C-level lower-level ** cheats, I think that with the second uncle's martial arts attainments and knowledge, with these many martial arts cheats as a reference, it is not impossible to create a new martial arts.
In order to make up for the loss of five people in "Qingyun Jianzhen", Hua Bushi recruited another 20 teenagers for training.
Among the teenagers recruited this time, there are still no people with good qualifications, and they are even inferior to the 100 people recruited last time. There are countless martial arts practitioners in the world, and there are many young people who want to become famous in the rivers and lakes, but people who really have enough qualifications to practice superior martial arts are really rare, and they can not be found.
It was so difficult to recruit talents, Hua Bushi couldn't help but have the idea of opening a martial arts gym in his heart.
The disciples in the martial arts sect, of course, there are also those who have been apprenticed to the master since childhood, such as Yang Jiangyi is an orphan who was adopted by Huaqing Zhenren since he was a child, but such situations are rare.
The vast majority of martial artists are fourteen or fifteen years old, and after they have practiced some basic martial arts, they will go to the sect to join the master. In the "Seven Great Schools of the Central Plains", there is an endless stream of Jianghu people who come to learn art every year, and they have to go through many examinations, and only those with excellent qualifications will be accepted under the door.
