Chapter 41: Havoc in the Song Mansion
Of course, Shenwutang can't be considered a poor ghost, but it's really not rich.
Strictly speaking, Shenwutang is a loose organization, not only does it not have a strict organizational structure, but it also does not have a particularly stable way to make profits, and there are only two main sources of income in terms of finance.
The first is the appropriation of the national treasury, and the second is the donation of the powerful from all walks of life...... And even many times the latter is the big one.
That's right, because the treasury is not rich either.
Shenwutang is the gathering place of the Great Zhou Martial Arts Grandmasters, not only has extremely high authority, but also undertakes the task of cultivating elite martial artists, this part of the function is similar to the Guozijian who cultivates top students for the imperial court.
In addition, Shenwutang is also responsible for dealing with enemies that cannot be dealt with by the six gates, and is operated by the grandmasters who are stationed in Shangjing on a rotating basis, and also has some law enforcement functions.
It can be said that these two are the main tasks of Shenwutang, but unfortunately, whether it is education and supervision, it is destined to be difficult to carry out income-generating business, and the source of funds has always been a big problem.
Of course, this is not to say that the grandmaster is very poor, in fact, the grandmaster who founded the sect by himself and accepted disciples is rich one by one, and the poor are only the Shenwutang itself.
The current situation of Shenwutang is not a big secret, and it is more than one or two times to publicly ask for donations from all walks of life, and it is precisely when Song Yan understands this point that he makes the decision to "pay tribute" in the name of appraisal fees.
This is the result of Song Yan's careful consideration. From a business point of view, low-cost, low-threshold industries are suitable for small profits and quick turnover, because it will not be long before hot money will gather in and a large number of competitors will appear.
The industry with high cost and high threshold has the opportunity to earn high profits, as long as the market is large enough, and this is the reason why Song Yan has to pull into Shenwutang.
As for how to achieve this, Song Yan already had a plan in his heart.
......
Coming out of Wen Yiqi's house, Song Yan didn't get an answer immediately, the old man just asked him to go home first and wait for news.
After all, it was a cooperation involving a lot of money, and Wen Yiqi was not the decision-maker of Shenwutang, so he couldn't give Song Yan a direct answer.
The meeting with Wen Yiqi was quite successful, Song Yan was in a good mood, humming a little song and walking back to the Song Mansion, but before he could walk into the house, he saw a large group of people surrounding the gate of the Song Mansion.
Not far away, there was a shiny head, looking around.
Song Yan couldn't help but be happy, stepped forward and patted the man's shoulder, and said with a smile: "Senior brother, I didn't expect you to be a ...... who loves to watch excitement Where's your Qingqing girl?"
"Miss Qingqing is on vacation today...... Hey, junior brother, are you back?!" Of course, this bald head is the Pure Root Monk, and when he saw Song Yan, he immediately became excited.
"How?"
"These people...... I'm here to find you!"
"Huh?" Song Yan couldn't help but be stunned for a moment, he felt that he hadn't done anything bad recently, and then recalled it carefully...... Well, it really isn't.
Monk Jinggen didn't say much, ran to the side and pulled over a flat-headed young man, and said to him, "You." ”
Song Yan glanced at the other party, and still had some impression of this young man in his mind, this is a side child of the Song family, named Song Zhihuan, who has a good relationship with the original Song Yan.
After Song Yan returned to the Song Mansion in the past few days, Song Zhihuan also came to visit twice, which can be regarded as picking up the old relationship again.
Seeing Song Yan at this time, Song Zhihuan hurriedly said with an anxious look on his face: "Sixth brother, it's the Zhao family who is here...... The story of you and Miss Zhao has spread all over now!"
"Wait a while, what's going to spread all over the place?" Song Yan looked inexplicable.
Song Zhihuan saw that he still didn't know what he was doing, so he had to introduce the situation, and he opened his mouth with heavy news: "I just got the news in the morning, last night the fourth prince suddenly fell ill and canceled all activities outside, including the concubine on the fifth day of the new year......"
Speaking of this, he couldn't help but look at Song Yan and whispered, "Sixth brother, did you secretly run to see Miss Zhao during the Lantern Festival yesterday?"
"What do you mean by secretly, Young Master Ben is above board!" Song Yan said righteously.
"Eh, don't care if it's secret, now most of the rumors in Kyoto are that it is the sixth brother that you and Miss Zhao have rekindled their old relationship, and His Royal Highness the Fourth Prince was angry and angry, and he wanted to cancel the marriage contract with the Zhao family in a fit of anger. ”
When Song Yan heard this, he couldn't help but roll his eyes and said: "Zhao Cen wants to repent of his marriage, why did the Zhao family come to me, can I still send Zhao Jinghua to the Four Princes' Mansion?"
Saying this, Song Yan actually had some doubts in his heart - the whole thing looked a little strange.
Of course, Song Yan knew that Zhao Cen was not sick at all, but his soul was injured and he had to recuperate for a period of time, and it was natural to postpone the concubine - Zhao Laosi's current state, I am afraid that he is even powerless to have sex.
But there is no reason for his own meeting with Zhao Jinghua to spread so quickly. The guests of Baixianglou may not know him Song Yan, Sun Yan is Zhao Cen's person, and it is impossible for him to come out and slap his master in the face...... Is it Zhao Jinghua herself?
Song Yan was just thinking about it, and Song Zhihuan next to him couldn't help but cough lightly: "Sixth brother, the Zhao family was the first to get the news yesterday, and Miss Zhao disappeared this morning, and now the Zhao family suspects that you kidnapped people!"
Missing?Missing a hammer, I only saw her at Wen Yiqi's house in the morning!
Song Yan connected all the clues in an instant, and the news was really Zhao Jinghua herself...... No, she doesn't have this ability, most of it is a good thing that Miss Yan did.
No wonder I saw myself in the morning when the wicked person sued first, and he looked weird.
Song Yan sneered in his heart, so he put aside the two people in front of him, walked directly towards the door of the Song Mansion, and pouted: "Go, the poor monk wants to see which of the Zhao family came out to beg for a beating...... I was just beaten up yesterday, and now the punching bag is here. ”
I almost lost my life last night, although I knew afterwards that Lin Jiamei was not an ordinary Jindan, but Song Yan was somewhat unconvinced.
"Childe, Song Yan is there!"
"That's right, that's Song Yan, I've seen his portrait!"
Song Yan took the two of them to the front of the Song Mansion, and after a few noises, the originally noisy crowd at the gate of the Song Mansion suddenly quieted down, and a passage was separated, and a young man in Chinese clothes walked towards Song Yan with a gloomy face.
"You are Song Yan, Song Hongwen?" The young man in Chinese clothes stared at Song Yan with a bad look.
Song Yan raised his head and said: "My name is Song Zhe, calligraphy, Song Yan is my most respected twin brother, who are you?"
The corners of the young man's mouth twitched slightly, and he couldn't help but say: "My name is Zhao Guang, I know Song Lixue, don't you like this...... Without further ado, Song Yan, where the hell is my sister?!"
"How do I know where your sister is?"
"I all know that my sister just ran away from home today after meeting you yesterday!" Zhao Guang is not very old, and he still has two pimples on his face, but his sister's tendency to control is already obvious.
Song Yan spread his hands and said: "It was your sister who came to me by herself, what does it have to do with me?" By the way, she said that Zhao Cen has violent tendencies and beats her all day long, she doesn't want to marry her as a concubine at all, and wants to get back together with me...... Of course, I refused. ”
Yan Danjue and Zhao Jinghua dared to use him as a shield, so don't blame him for pouring dirty water on the surnamed Zhao.
Song Yan not only has a level 100 Yi Jin Sutra, but also obviously a level 100 group taunt skill, Zhao Guang heard the green tendons on his head, and it took a long time for three words to pop out of his mouth: "You...... Look for death!"
As soon as the words fell, the young man couldn't help but smash his fist into the corner of Song Yan's eyes.
However, the next moment, he flew back backwards at a faster speed, directly crashed into the crowd of the Zhao family behind him, and then fell heavily to the ground.
"I can't help myself!"
Song Yan stepped forward with a sneer, lifted Zhao Guang's right leg with one hand, dragged him on the ground like this, and slowly walked into the gate of the Song Mansion.
A Zhao family warrior wanted to step forward to stop him, but he was directly pulled away by Zhao Guang, so no one dared to step forward again.
The gate of the Song Mansion was hidden, and many people inside could be seen standing everywhere, also wearing the clothes of the Zhao family, and the sneer on Song Yan's face couldn't help but be even worse.
