Chapter 39: The Conversation
Lin Nei envoy said: "Since it is the largest underground force, why does the government not oppose my Haisha Gang, and also recognize the status of my Haisha Gang, do you have this question?" ”
Zhang Fang was just about to speak, and the change in his expression at this moment was seen by Lin Nei's envoy.
"It's worthy of Elder Lin, I really have this question below. ”
Zhang Fang stayed in Linshan County for a few days, and he also had a general understanding of the special treatment of the Haisha Gang by the government, and recognized the legitimacy of the Haisha Gang, but he was very hostile to other gangs and had many restrictions.
Usually gangs, such as privately formed violent organizations, are the source of unrest, but the government here recognizes the legitimate status of the Haisha Gang, which is puzzling.
"Actually, my Haisha Gang is an underground organization established with the permission of the imperial court, which is responsible for managing the intricate gang forces, which is equivalent to the managers and enforcers of the underground forces.
In peacetime, it is responsible for handling disputes between gangs and stopping conflicts between gang members and civilians, while gang members who commit crimes are handed over to our Haisha Gang to deal with, and the government is not allowed to interfere, and the power is extremely heavy. ”
Lin Nei Envoy took another breath and spit out a cloud of smoke, he twisted his beard and said, "Do you know that Fang Hongchang, the Jiedu envoy of Linshan County, was once a member of my Haisha Gang. ”
"And this?" Zhang Fang was surprised to hear this.
The imperial court was usually the supreme ruler of a place, with extremely strong military power and political status. Even the county guards, prefects and other court officials had to obey his orders.
Lin Nei said leisurely: "Yes, in the entire Linshan County, my Haisha Gang is a well-deserved number one gang. ”
"So it should be. Zhang Fang said with emotion.
Even the Jiedu envoy was once a member of the Haisha Gang, and the Haisha Gang's own strength is excellent, so it is unreasonable not to become the first gang.
"By the way, Elder Lin, you haven't asked me where to read the martial arts. Zhang Fang finally said his fundamental purpose.
"Hall Master Zhang, but do you need to refer to it?" asked the envoy casually.
"Well, this is also an important reason for me to join your gang, one of the nine major gangs in Yunzhou, with this resounding name, presumably the martial arts in the gang are extraordinary. Zhang Fang nodded and praised.
"That's right!" said Lin Nei with a hearty smile, he agreed with Zhang Fang's statement. "Since Hall Master Zhang said so, then I will talk about the situation in the martial hall. ”
"Wutang?" Zhang Fang asked, "Is this this..."
Lin Nei envoy said: "Yes, Wutang has collected almost all the martial arts of my Haisha Gang, but the qualifications for different levels of martial arts are also different. ”
"Oh!" Zhang Fang said, narrowing his eyes.
Lin Nei envoy said: "You also know that martial arts is the most important resource of the gang, and this kind of thing, if you want to get it, it is impossible to pay a price." ”
"Indeed, there is no love for no reason in the world, and there is no free lunch, and everything is done at a price. ”
Zhang Fang himself is a person who believes in equivalent exchange, and he agrees with what Rinnai Envoy said.
"If only you understood!" said the Rinnei envoy approvingly.
He added: "Everything in the gang speaks with contributions, and the contributions are insufficient, and strictly speaking, even the gang leader is not allowed to refer to martial arts at will. Although you are the hall master, your contribution to the gang is zero, and you are not qualified to refer to martial arts, but..."
Speaking of this, the Rinnai envoy paused, although Zhang Fang was calm on the surface, he was a little expectant in his heart about what the Rinnai envoy was about to say.
Envoy Rinnai said, "Considering that you just joined our gang, I can give you a special opportunity." ”
"Please also ask the elders to speak. Zhang Fang said, but he was guessing in his heart.
Lin Nei glanced at Zhang Fang and was very satisfied with Zhang Fang's calmness.
Rinnai said, "Borrow contributions in advance." ”
"Borrowed?" Zhang Fang was puzzled.
"Yes, it's borrowing, borrowing future contributions in advance, after all, the contributions you get in the future will definitely not be too small, enough to pay off the contributions, but this opportunity can only be once. ”
"This understands, but this benefit may not be too good!" Zhang Fang said with a smile, still very wary of this pie.
As soon as he joined the gang, he didn't make an inch, and the gang gave such a luxurious gift, which was simply the rhythm of smashing people, and only the legendary child of fate had such a good character.
"Master Zhang really understands that if you want to get, you must pay first, which is an eternal and unchanging truth. "Lin Nei admired Zhang Fang even more, and he also intended to make friends with Zhang Fang.
Borrowing the contribution of a gang is like taking out a loan in a previous life, it is a very high price, otherwise why would others lend it to you, and it is not a saint's compassion overflowing.
"According to the usual practice, all newcomers who borrow contributions in advance, according to the level of the position in the gang, will be forced to arrange a very difficult task in the next month, as for when this task will be issued, it is difficult to say. ”
Lin Nei Envoy patiently answered all questions for Zhang Fang and was very patient, which is one of the reasons why he can take on the important task of internal affairs envoy.
Unconsciously, the conversation between the two has been going on for a long time, and the sun has set, and the glow of the river is reflected into the pavilion and falls on the faces of Zhang Fang and the two, dazzling.
"It's not too early, Hall Master Zhang, the old man should also go, there are too many things in this gang, I don't hurry up to deal with the old man, I'm afraid the gang leader will be punished again!"
Zhang Fang nodded, and the two walked out of the attic together.
There were still two sword-wielding men left at the door, and it seemed that they had been specially left to wait for the Rinnai envoy, in other words, they were the henchmen of the Rinnai envoy.
There was a carriage waiting in the distance, and a bearded man was sitting firmly in the driver's seat, motionless, waiting for the envoy in the forest.
The Rinnai envoy stopped directly in front of the two big men, turned his head and commanded the tall and strong men among them.
"This is the new hall master of the Flying Shadow Hall, let go of Hall Master Zhang, let you lead the way for him, don't snub Hall Master Zhang. ”
"Subordinates obey!" said the big man respectfully, silently stopping to the side, not walking with the envoy of the forest.
Zhang Fang quietly watched Lin Nei make a walk away and came back to his senses.
At this time, a young man in a yellow shirt led a black horse, which was the black horse that Zhang Fang.
The fierce horse is untamable, and the temper is very great, and the young man has suffered a lot for the footsteps of these few steps
"What is this brother's name?" Zhang Fang said, taking the horse rope.
"Under Zhang Hu!, Elder Lin's guard. Dahan said heartily. His voice was as strong and hard as his muscular body.
"Brother Zhang Hu, tomorrow morning, you come to me in the innermost courtyard of Qianyue Street! Zhang Fang turned over and sat firmly on the horse's back and said loudly.
"I understand it below. Zhang Hu responded. As for Zhang Fang's residence, the Haisha Gang has already found out, and he can find it without Zhang Fang's words.
"So good!" Zhang Fang raised his whip and whipped it on the horse's stock, and the horse neighed like a gust of wind and ran into the distance.
Zhang Hu looked at Zhang Fang's disappearing figure, stood for a while, and after a while, disappeared into the afterglow of the setting sun.
