Kou Zhong immediately said: "Boss Li, this is very simple, I think we should set up a gang to suppress the Zhuhua Gang, then in the future, the entire Yangzhou will be our final say, and we can receive a lot ............of protection money at that time."

Li Yizhi's head is full of black lines, the little gangster is really still the little gangster, even if his temperament has changed, his nature still can't be changed.

Looking at Li Yizhi's sinking face, Kou Zhong's smile froze directly, and he couldn't go on with his imagination later.

Xu Ziling was more discerning, and he was clever, so he hurriedly said: "No, Zhong Shao, Boss Li told us before that it is impossible to be reckless in the rivers and lakes, so there is no future in collecting premiums." Boss Li, I heard that selling smuggled salt is very profitable, and the Song family can make a profit of tens of thousands of taels of silver with a boatload of sea salt. If we can monopolize the sea salt in the whole south, it will be a lot of money. ”

Li Yizhi nodded slightly, and said: "Ziling is to the point, but the private salt in the south has basically been divided between the Song family and the Haisha Gang, and behind the Haisha Gang is the Yuwen Valve, so although this business is very profitable, it is not suitable for us for the time being." ”

Gui Xiliang pondered for a long time before saying, "Boss Li, why don't we open a martial arts hall, your martial arts are so powerful, you will definitely be able to recruit many disciples." When the time comes, we will open martial arts halls all over the country, won't we have both money and people? ”

Xin Rong continued: "I feel that we can be a trading house, and then raise a lot of guards, and then the business will be all over the country, and we will also have both money and people." ”

Kou Zhong's face collapsed, and he felt that he had spoken the worst.

Li Yizhi smiled slightly, nodded and said: "Well, you all said it very well, but you all ignored one point, that is, according to your development model, it will take a lot of time, at least more than ten years, and at that time, it is impossible to say that the world has been unified." ”

The four of Kou Zhong pondered, then they all nodded and asked, "Then what can Boss Li do?" ”

Li Yizhi said: "Who knows the most in this world? ”

"Outcasts!" Kou Zhong hurriedly said.

Li Yizhi said: "Yes, it is the homeless, and the homeless can also be called by another word, that is, beggars, we target them and take them for our own use." Think about it, how many people can be recruited at that time? ”

Xu Ziling's eyes lit up and said: "This is true, if there is chaos today, there are homeless people everywhere, as long as they are given a bite to eat, they will definitely be willing to follow us to work hard." But we don't have that much money, do we? ”

"That's why I use another term 'beggar', because for beggars, they are all capable of supporting themselves, so they basically don't need to be paid. As long as we organize them, we will be able to gain a powerful force out of thin air. ”

Li Yizhi said slowly: "And with these beggars, we can do some business to make money, and then take care of those beggars who are dying of hunger, so as to expand the scale and form a virtuous circle." Another important point here is that there is no force that cares about beggars at the moment, so we have no competitors. ”

In fact, Li Yizhi also has a plan, that is, to open a money bank and issue currency. Because of all the industries in the world, there is no industry that can make money as well as issuing currency.

However, this plan requires high preconditions, otherwise it will just be fat in other people's mouths, so there is no need to be too anxious for the time being.

Kou Zhong and the four of them admired in their hearts that they could grow as quickly as a snowball when the time came, and they said, "Old Li, then are we going to set up a beggar gang to rule the beggars in the world?" ”

Li Yizhi nodded and said, "Not bad." You used to be at the bottom of the city, and you should be no strangers to beggars. So I gave you a task to find out the situation of beggars in Yangzhou City, and then report it to me. ”

"Yes, Boss Li."

The four of them hurriedly stood up and said, their fighting spirits high.

"Well, you clean up the dishes and chopsticks, I still have some things that I need to go out for, and I may not come back in the evening."

Li Yizhi stood up, dropped a word and went out.

He was going to find Shi Long this time, firstly to learn martial arts, and secondly, to understand the cultivation situation of this era and see if he could find the next direction of cultivation.

In the original book, Shi Long is only a dragon character, and his only role is to provide Shuanglong with the secret of longevity.

But it is undeniable that as the first master in Yangzhou, the other party must have real talent and learning.

The only misfortune is that I met Yu Wenhua at the beginning, so life is tragic.

Therefore, Li Yizhicai chose Shi Long's goal, he has real talent and real learning, his martial arts are not too high, and he is good at cultivating, his personality should be relatively gentle, and it will be more convenient to communicate.

On the outskirts of the southern part of the city, at the foot of a mountain, there is a small manor.

Although Shi Long opened the Shi Long Dojo, he was taken care of by his disciples on weekdays, and he lived in seclusion here for more than ten years, concentrating on the "Secret of Eternal Life" day and night.

The manor was very deserted, and Li Yizhi knocked on the courtyard door for a while before he heard footsteps.

Soon, a middle-aged man with a green beard and a handsome face opened the courtyard door, and it was Shi Long.

He looked at Li Yizhi and asked suspiciously, "What does this son have to do?" ”

Li Yizhi clenched his fists and asked, "May I ask if it's the Shilong Stone Daoist?" ”

"Yes, I'm Shilong." Shi Long nodded.

Li Yizhi smiled and said: "Shi Dao Chief, there are guests coming to the door, isn't it a bit rude not to invite guests in?" ”

Shi Long made a joke and said, "I'm sorry, this son, this is Shi's retreat, it's really not good to see guests, and it's not strange." ”

Li Yizhi: "Since this is the case, then I'll say it directly." In Xia Li Yizhi, he came to learn martial arts from Shi Daochang. ”

Shi Long glanced at Li Yi strangely, but he really couldn't see any trace of the other party's martial arts.

He shook his head slowly and said calmly: "I'm sorry, Li Gongzi, I have been retired for many years, and I don't want to use force with others, so please go back." ”

When Li Yizhi heard this, he had no choice but to say three words: "The secret of longevity!" ”

Immediately, Shi Long's eyes sharpened, and the whole person exuded an extremely majestic momentum, as if it was overwhelming, pressing towards Li Yizhi.

He said coldly: "Gongzi Li is here to snatch the secret of immortality? ”

Li Yizhi shook his head and said, "The secret of immortality is of little use to me. I'm just learning to go down the mountain, so I want to find someone to talk to see how many catties I have. ”

Shi Long naturally didn't believe Li Yizhi's words, he said in a deep voice: "Since this is the case, then Li Gongzi will invite in, I also want to see what Li Gongzi is hiding." ”

Bang!

The courtyard door closed, and the two came to the courtyard and stood opposite each other.

"Shi Dao Chief, please advise!"

When Li Yi's words fell, as soon as his mind moved, the Void Pill vibrate, and the majestic blood and qi filled his body, making him burst out with a strong momentum.

Faintly, a trace of blood-colored qi overflowed from the pores, but there was no trace of blood, but it gave people a very pure feeling.

Shi Long's pupils shrank slightly, although he had already prepared, but Li Yizhi's burst of momentum still frightened him. And there is also the flesh that is like nothing, making people feel like they are facing an oven, burning with blazing flames.

Such an anomaly is simply unheard of.
