Chapter 51: The Thunder Gate of Wealth
When Zhuo Ling returned to the Batian Gang at night, he heard Zheng Jin commanding his subordinates to move things and make room before he entered the door. Looking at Zheng Jin, who was hurriedly directing the scene and looking around, she directly gave a punch to "say hello".
"What's going on? What kind of evil did you fall for today, like a thief with a weak heart. Zhuo Ling casually put his hand on Zheng Jin's shoulder, felt the curious gazes of the people around him, and proudly raised his chin and looked back.
"Ahh Zheng Jin was so frightened by her that he let out a low cry, and he didn't jump up because Zhuo Ling pressed his shoulder, "Oh, it's you." β
"What? What did you do wrong? Zhuo Ling inquired curiously.
Zheng Jin briefly talked about the afternoon's events.
"A boy named Yu Heng?" Zhuo Ling frowned and tried to recall, "Why does this name sound a little familiar?" β
"The point is not Yu Heng, it's Ji Shui without them!" Zheng Jin lowered his voice, "If the two of them realize that I am a woman, you can wait for the two of us to be swept out of the house together." "Someone has completely forgotten that their goal in the first place was to leave the Decepticons.
"I look at you, you just think too much and are too anxious." Zhuo Ling grinned, "I think if your secret is discovered, you can live a little better." β
Zheng Jin rolled his eyes at the sky.
"But I see how you stuff all the newly recruited people into the east and west side courtyards, aren't you afraid that the two hall masters will grow stronger and unveiled?" Zhuo Ling saw that his subordinates were busy cleaning up the wings of the Blue Dragon Hall and the White Tiger Hall, and he was slightly puzzled.
"You think I recruited those talents?"
"Oh~" Zhuo Ling realized, "There are many ways for many friends, and there are several more roads for multiple hall masters." β

On the second day, along with the eight new members, there was also a post from Thundergate.
"The Decepticons still have an intersection with the Thunder Gate?" Zhuo Ling stuffed the donkey meat from the Welcome Building in his mouth and muttered as he put the post on the table.
Thunder Gate is a very prestigious sect in the Southern Regions, originally a powerful family that supplied soldiers and fire to the previous dynasty, because the old dynasty collapsed, the head of the family swore to never enter the dynasty for loyalty, and then gradually recruited some masters of the rivers and lakes, and some in-law relations with the local assassin history, and grew strong in the south. Thunder Gate made a fortune with gunpowder appliances, naturally rich in family background, and the government to help, in the south of the roots are very deep, three years ago at the martial arts conference, Thunder Gate rookie achieved the fifth good result, but also directly shows the Thunder Gate based on the attitude of the rivers and lakes, comprehensive these aspects, at least in the southern region, Thunder Gate can be called a hegemon.
"Why don't I know if I have a relationship?" Zheng Jin picked up the post, the cover of the invitation was silver, and the gilded characters on it were "Respectfully Welcome", and the folded surface was opened, and the inside of the cover was made of Chengxintang paper, and the bottom painting was actually made with light ink. The title "Invitation to the Pre-selection of the Martial Arts Conference" jumped into my eyesββ
"At the time of the three-year meeting, the martial arts are prosperous, and now the heroes are invited, and the famous family is welcomed, and now the gate is fortunate to be the host of this session, and the peace faction is invited to Fuzhou to participate in the grand event. Thunder Gate respectfully. β
"Oh, it turns out that this year's small sect screening is the host of the Thunder Gate." Zheng Jin nodded knowingly. She also knows one or two about the rules of the martial arts conference, although it is a wide invitation to heroes, but in fact, the martial arts conference also has a threshold, how many countless small sects and factions in the huge rivers and lakes, whether it is for the martial arts standard or for the consideration of manpower and material resources, those small shrimps are to be screened. The peace faction has just been established, and the invitation that Thunder Gate can send is already "Corporal Lixian".
"The Deception Gang also submitted an application, I wonder if I received an invitation?" Zheng Jin seemed to be talking to herself, and seemed to ask Zhuo Ling, but she didn't hear Zhuo Ling's answer, turned her head to ask, and saw her staring at the invitation, showing surprise.
She seemed to be staring at ...... The back cover of the invitation? Zheng Jin looked at the letter again.
A few light strokes of ink were drawn on the paper, the shallow handwriting was not eye-catching, and the drawing seemed to be the outline of a town.
"The great family is elegant," Zheng Jin pointed to the handwriting, "Ordinary people don't get any invitations and make a picture." β
"Didn't you see it?" Zhuo Ling flicked her hand away, "This painting is the Thunder Gate!" Thunder Gate is located in Fuzhou, its family business is big, it is not a sect can be compared, people have a big reputation, strong financial resources, many disciples, directly under the town to do the sect, the name is Thunder Town. β
"Such a big deal!" Zheng Jin really felt that he was lonely.
"There is also this text, see the small seal in the upper right corner, this is the calligraphy and painting master Shang Min's Zhai number seal. Does Shang Min know? β
Zheng Jin shook his head.
"You," Zhuo Ling poked her head in hatred, "Shang Min is known as the most accomplished master of calligraphy and painting in this dynasty, good at writing and writing, and there was a couplet from his hand before, which was auctioned for 700,000 taels of silver in the auction house in the capital. β
"Seven hundred thousand taels? Who's going to buy it? Zheng Jin said this verbally, but he grabbed the post closer in his hand, and began to estimate how much this invitation could sell.
"Art is priceless!" Zhuo Ling saw her careful thinking and snatched the invitation in her hand, "If you want to sell, you have to wait for the martial arts conference, this is the future of the peace faction, you should be cautious." βγ
"I know, I know, I know." Zheng Jin slapped her hand away, staring at the word and looking at it again and again, "Don't rob me, go and notify the three hall masters to have a meeting!" β
