"Senior brother, have you heard that this year's emperor's draft of girls, the country's five thousand show girls entered Beijing"

"Brother Wei has already heard about it, and he knows that you and the Chengxiang County Lord Sect kicked each other's balls, and it finally fell on your two sisters."

"I need to arrange manpower in the capital, now the court situation is chaotic, as soon as I enter the palace gate, it is as deep as the sea, since I can't stop it, I want to protect the safety of my two sisters, after all, there are too many unclear things in the palace."

The senior brother nodded in understanding, he knew that Li Jing and his two sisters were close. The feelings are very deep, and it is not surprising that Li Jing has this thought. It should be the truth.

"In addition, Jingshi is also a good place to develop the sect, where there are nearly two million people, and the prices are very expensive, and the shops are monopolized by the powerful, civil officials, and generals, and it is difficult for ordinary people to gain a foothold in the capital, and the goods can only be sold to these people, and they sell them at a high price to obtain huge profits. Let's go directly to open a shop, there is no problem in making a small fuss, if it becomes big and affects the financial path of some people, I am afraid it will not be good. Therefore, I plan to engage in underground shipping sales organizations, one-line contact, direct distribution of goods, in addition to rice and salt, there can also be cloth and ironware. ”

"Understood, looking at the current situation, it is very likely that the new emperor will reactivate your Li family, you want to lay out in the capital and establish an underground force, the sect can earn a huge amount of silver, and a large number of elite disciples can be screened out from it. There is no harm in all gains. Your Li family can establish their own roots in the capital, listen to intelligence, and form forces. Urgency is available. At the same time, it also avoided direct conflict with the magnates and dumped your Li family's goods to the north, and the magnates in the north lost their interests but could not find opponents, and they were all very scattered direct/sales, and the people involved were extremely large. It can't be destroyed at all, and because of the ties of interest, these people at different levels can be used by your Li family" Senior Brother quickly sorted out the clues.

"That's right, as long as the level we designed is strict and the one-line connection is connected, there is no way to destroy it at all, and entering and exiting the city gate is also an ant moving, and it is impossible to check it in small batches. In particular, salt and iron are very expensive, and a person who brings them into the city at one time will not arouse suspicion at all. There is no way to prohibit it, it can be said that the current Ming Dynasty has no way to do anything about us in this way. Senior brothers don't have to worry about implicating the master, because these people don't know who is operating behind the scenes, and only the people at the top have the whole situation. All resources can be mobilized. If you don't use your identity as a sect to get in touch with real information about the outside world, it's absolutely safe. ”

Senior Brother thought about it for a long time, and felt that there was no problem, this method was indeed beneficial to the sect and Li Jing, everyone took what they needed, the sect could get a big development, someone had money, and the Li family could get a huge force and intelligence organization all over the north. And as long as it is well organized and well designed, it is not dangerous to leak secrets, and this kind of organization, if part of it is destroyed, will soon replenish other branches, and there is no way to destroy it. The court is in the light, the sect is in the dark, so there is no need to worry about it.

Since the basis of the existence of this group is to use Li Jing's cheap goods to break the monopoly of the northern magnates, it is inevitable that the entire group will be controlled and led by Li Jing and the Li family, which is a matter of no doubt, and the sect really works for the Li family. However, the benefits obtained by the sect are also huge, and the senior brother knows that the Li family transports thousands of tons of rice from Nanyang to the Yangtze River for sale, and if this business is done, it will definitely not be a problem to sell two or three hundred thousand taels of silver a year. Such huge interests also made him tempted, he didn't have much ambition, he just wanted to fulfill his master's last wish and revitalize the Southern Sect. But there is no one, no money, how to revitalize.

Senior Brother pondered for a long time and said: "Senior Brother, I will gather all the senior brothers and sisters, and everyone will study it, after all, the Everbright Southern Sect is the master's last wish, and the nine of us are all responsible." ”

"By the way, the closed disciple of the head master, Senior Sister Xing and I are here, Senior Brother, please see if you can arrange a time to meet our senior brothers and sisters of the Southern Sect."

"This should be, although the master was not on good terms with your uncles and uncles back then, and ran away angrily, but no matter what, they are all the same family, the father and the son. After all, there is no contradiction in our generation. Please come and live in the Taoist temple. It's good to live with your senior sister Nina Xin, and when you get here, you can be regarded as home. ”

Li Jing immediately went to the canteen with his senior brother to have breakfast with his senior brothers and sisters, and at the same time, discussed these things together. The senior brother sent his eldest disciple to take Qingfeng Mingyue's two apprentices and grandsons to the Li family to invite Xing Jiaojiao to go up the mountain.

In the past two days, in addition to studying the specific matters of establishing a new sect with his brothers and sisters, he took the little senior sister to visit Chai Mountain. Senior Brother has now renamed this place Lingxiao Mountain. The little senior sister and her classmates are also very happy, she is good-looking, and she is very liked by Li Jing's classmates.

Most of the fellow disciples saw that there was something wrong with the relationship between the two, and they all seemed to be smiling, which made the little senior sister embarrassed, but the senior brother shook his head behind his back and the senior brothers and sisters, the gap between the identity and status of this little junior sister and Li Jing is too big, the Li family is a gentleman family, and the relationship with other big clans is intertwined, the old lady and the clan elder have great power, Li Jing is the eldest son of the eldest son of the eldest son, and his marriage is not up to his own decision, he is not optimistic about these two.

Leaving the little senior sister to live in the mountains, she took the four maids and Bai Yu with her, and began to inspect the mines and workshops in various tributaries on the Black Pearl. The focus is on several reservoirs built near Meihuawu, especially the concrete arch dam built between the two mountains on the north bank of Meixi, the reservoir is very large, the drop reaches 30 meters, and 30 impact waterway pipelines will be built in the future to drive hydraulic turbines, as a power source for industry, the Hanjiang River basin does not freeze all year round, and can produce day and night every day throughout the year, only three shifts of personnel are needed.

Li Jing inspected Wang Laosan's iron workshop, at present, with the help of more than a dozen biochemical engineers sent by Li Jing, Wang Laosan led more than 300 apprentices, and has almost made all kinds of primary machine tools, there are also some blast furnaces here, but mainly for smelting special minerals in the Hanjiang River Basin, at present, tungsten ore, manganese ore, iron-rich ore, and various rare ores are selected and transported to be smelted here.

Li Jing and the fifth uncle conspired for a few days, planning to build a dock fort at the mouth of the mine, and at the same time support the children of the Li family to donate a group to practice in the entire Hanjiang River Basin, the entire Hanjiang River Basin 30,000 square kilometers and Dayuan Island is about the same, there are 17,000 square kilometers in eastern Guangdong, and 13,000 square kilometers in Jiangxi and Fujian provinces, which are basically mountainous. It is completely resistant to typhoons. Flood shocks.

When a large number of reservoirs and hydraulic workshops are built on various tributaries, the summer floods of the Hanjiang River will be effectively controlled, and the main roads in and out of the mountainous areas of the Hanjiang River basin will be densely covered with watchtowers and fortresses, and the regimental training in various places will be controlled in their hands, and the Li family will control the entire Hanjiang River basin like an iron bucket, and this will be the real foundation of the Li family.
