The next day, in the city of Guangzhou, the abnormality was clearly felt.

The Shahe gang that used to run rampant on the streets disappeared, and it was not until an hour or two later that they reappeared on the streets to show their existence.

It wasn't until the afternoon that the merchants in the city learned that the Shahe Gang had changed its leader.

Some merchants are inevitably worried that the new gang leader will come to power and will have to collect protection money again.

But before they could feel at ease, the entire city fell into a storm because of the sudden outbreak of big news in the capital.

"Galeries Lafayette has an order: 'Lion King Contest' will be held in the capital! Three months later, lion dances from all provinces will gather in the capital, and a thousand lions will compete for hegemony and raise the prestige of our country! Those who pick up the youth will be awarded the 'Lion King' gold medal by Zuo Zhongtang himself, and Lafayette will personally encourage and reward them!"

A piece of news from the government made the entire city of Guangzhou boil.

Several martial arts halls have already spoken out and performed lion dances, and they are swaggering, wanting to experience a battle in Guangzhou first.

There was a chaotic situation, but because of Cixi's order, there was a deformed liveliness.

Ye Shu was equally happy, and in this order, he saw an opportunity.

An opportunity to take advantage of Cixi's contradictions with the Western powers.

The Qing Navy had just been sunk, and the reason why Cixi held the Lion King Contest was to "show the national prestige", show the hardness of the bloody men of the Qing Dynasty, and deter foreigners.

If something happens at this time, the government will probably not pursue it.

It sounds incredible, but Cixi often did this kind of thing, and later the White Lotus Sect "Fu Qing to destroy the foreign" and the Boxer Movement were secretly supported by the Qing court.

I can't beat the foreigner's father on the surface, so I secretly support these non-governmental organizations and conflict with the foreigner.

This also has a strange consequence:

The government is afraid of foreigners, foreigners are afraid of the people, and the people are afraid of the government.

This point is also reflected in "Once Upon a Time 2".

Ye Shu judged that if he did something by himself at this time, or even killed some foreigners, or even Xueyi and boxing to kill foreigners, the government might secretly support it.

After all, this is more than any "lion king competition", which can "show the divine power of our Qing Dynasty", which makes the great powers jealous and rely more on the government to live in various ports.

"This is interesting, if you can take advantage of this and have a stable force, the world of "Once Upon a Time" can be set to return to the world......"

Ye Shu sat on the second floor of the "Begonia Courtyard", looking at Yan Zhendong who was performing on the street, thoughtful.

Miss Qingwen's eyes flashed, she sat next to Ye Shu, and said with a smile: "This performer is stinky and hard, and he is arrogant, otherwise he wouldn't be able to get mixed up in Guangzhou City." What's the matter, Gang Master Ye has a heart of love?"

Ye Shu glanced at her, this Qingwen in front of her had an extremely unnatural expression, "White Lotus Spy", it should be the identity she just obtained.

He suddenly took charge of the Shahe Gang, which made the forces in Guangzhou City a little unresponsive.

"Go, please come Master, I'll invite him to drink!"

The Shahe gang next to him immediately obeyed the order and left, and it didn't take long for Yan Zhendong to come over with a strange face, the corners of his mouth moved woodenly, and finally he just hugged his fists and saluted, saying "Brother Ye".

Ye Shu invited him to sit down, and he didn't say anything else, just ate food and drink, and talked about kung fu.

This made Yan Zhendong relax, and while munching, he talked about boxing with Ye Shu.

This time, Ye Shu obviously felt that what the other party said was much more profound than last time, and it was also a rare secret skill in other ordinary boxing gyms.

Ye Shu emphasized and asked him for marksmanship practice, which was quite rewarding.

"Brother Ye hasn't seen him for two days, not to mention his great progress in kung fu, he has already dominated the city of Guangzhou, congratulations! Sure enough, he is a jinshi who can go to stay abroad, both civil and military! I salute you!"

After drinking all the wine, Yan Zhendong looked lonely, looking at himself in dusty and tattered clothes, and secretly saddened.

Ye Shu's physical breakthrough is rare in his opinion, but it is also normal, and it is far from himself.

I have a lot of kung fu, eagle claw skills, iron cloth shirts, hard qigong, I have traveled all over the world, and I haven't seen a few who can beat me, but I can waste half my life, don't say that the martial arts hall is famous for the Yan family, and I haven't even mixed food and clothing.

"Master Yan, I also want to take a look at this 'Lion King Competition', I wonder if you would like to come to be the head of the martial arts instructor of the Shahe Gang, nod and dance the lion at the same time, and go to the capital for a while?"

Yan Zhendong was overjoyed in his heart, but then hesitated, or hugged his fists and whispered: "Brother Ye is high-righteousness! It's just that I have a family motto, and I want to carry forward my Yan family's boxing skills, and I can't be a ringing horse or join a gang, please forgive me!"

Master Yan is a master of martial arts, he would rather sell his art, not steal or rob, not bully, and have both ability and political integrity, he is a model of my generation of martial artists, where can I blame you?

It's just that the group of people under me don't even have some kung fu foundation, Master Yan just needs to teach them some basic kung fu, and I also have a lot of boxing skills I want to ask. How about raising money for these ten taels of silver?"

There is a bug in the original play, Dayang appeared in the first year of Xuantong, that is, after Cixi died and Puyi ascended the throne, but after the Shahe gang leader took refuge with foreigners, he used silver dollars to buy Yan Zhendong.

Yan Zhendong hesitated for a while, thinking of the pain of his hunger in the past two days, and then thinking about Ye Shu's two banquets, the sumptuous wine and meat he invited, plus Ye Shu's tall "Liuyang" status, and treating himself with such courtesy, he finally stood up, put the silver ingot in his arms, and hugged his fists to thank him.

Qingwen, who was on the side, found an opportunity to report the news to the boss of the Qinglou.

"It's okay! This Yan Zhendong is arrogant, he speaks straightforwardly, he doesn't know the severity of his actions, he looks down on the younger people the most, and he joins the Shahe Gang, which will definitely make the Shahe Gang feel resentful, even if it is for the sake of his own status and peace, Ye Shu will expel him, and it will not affect my White Lotus missionary cause!"

……

Ye Shu has always sat up and walked up, and after washing the dust for Yan Zhendong, he took him directly to the warehouse and gathered the helpers.

"Master Yan, he will be our martial arts instructor in the future! He has excellent kung fu, if you want to learn skills, you must listen to his teachings and treat him as a teacher! If anyone dares to be contemptuous, it will be like despying me!"

As soon as the strict order was issued, two lazy helpers in the crowd coaxed: "Helper, Master Yan, I know, it's the Begonia Courtyard performer! What ability does he have to be the head of the group? Why don't you let Master Yan perform a ......?"

"That's right, Master Yan will break a boulder in his chest! I'll help get a sledgehammer!"

These guys who run rampant on the streets on weekdays and have empty eyes treat Yan Zhendong as a monkey.

Ye Shu smiled and called the two proud helpers to the front: "If you are not convinced, then compare with Master Yan!" Master Yan, these two people do not obey my orders, you teach me a lesson, let them see what kung fu is!"

Speaking of this, Ye Shu glanced at the two who had failed to shake their wit: "Master Yan, just don't hurt their lives!"

The Shahe gang is evil, and Ye Shu likes these people.

Because, there is no need to scruple about packing it up!
