Chapter 57. Martial arts conference?
The banquet of hundreds of people was very lively, and at this time, everyone had almost eaten, and the atmosphere had reached a climax. Hou Ping stood up and spoke at Hu Yitong's signal.
"Ahem!" Hou Ping stood up, he cleared his throat, put one hand behind his back, and held his chest out as if he wanted to speak. Everyone subconsciously stopped talking and looked at him.
Hou Ping was very satisfied with everyone's reaction, and a smile tugged at the corner of his mouth, "Everyone must also know why Hu Zhaizi brought everyone together, so I don't need to say more." ”
He paused, glancing at the people seated, their faces more or less nonchalant. He didn't care, and continued to say loudly: "Panlongshan District has cultivated hundreds of acres of fertile land in a year, so you can imagine how strong the financial resources of Panlongzhai are. To put it mildly, I'm afraid everyone has never seen so much money in their lives. ”
He paused, looking at the expressions of these people, seeing that their faces were serious, he couldn't help but feel a little proud in his heart, and then continued to bewitch: "And the territory they occupy is far greater than everyone's territory, in order to win this piece of fat, we Baiyun Village are willing to send three hundred people to attack Panlong Village, I don't know what everyone here is going to do?" Explain in advance, the more the village contributes, the benefits of sharing, everyone must understand, right? There is no such thing as free food. ”
As soon as he finished speaking, the people sitting at the table began to talk to each other again.
"This... Lord Hu Zhai, we all know the sincerity of Baiyun Village, but the sincerity of Guizhai is really beyond our expectations. I'm afraid I still have to discuss with a few brothers before I can give Guizhai an answer. A man with triangular eyes stood up and replied.
Originally, some people who came to go through the motions, seeing that Baiyunzhai had made such a bloody investment, everyone wondered if there was a mountain of gold and silver in that Panlong Mountain? It seems that this time we really can't just go through the motions, and we have to weigh the gains and losses.
Hu Er's family was also a little surprised when he heard this, this Longzhai doesn't seem to have a grudge against Baiyun Village, right? Why do you have to put so much effort into fixing him? Could it be that Panlong Mountain really has gold and silver mountains?
Everyone was brought into a misunderstanding by Baiyunzhai for a while.
Hou Ping saw everyone's expressions, and he couldn't help but show a sinister smile where others couldn't see.
Hu Yitong sat on the main seat with a golden sword, and his heart was extremely proud. He was well aware of Hou Ping's thoughts, but he also had his own thoughts.
At this time, the imperial court was unstable, there were rebellions everywhere outside, and the government was too busy to take care of themselves, and they didn't care about their group of bandits at all. If he takes advantage of this opportunity, he weakens the few stockades below and finally takes them into his sphere of influence. When the time comes, these two provinces and three states will not have the final say? In the future, he can be a soil emperor in this realm at worst.
Therefore, in order to let these people fall into the scheme, he naturally had to let them see his sincerity, and then let Hou Ping say some words that were both copied and copied, misleading them to attack Panlong Village would have great benefits. So he didn't believe how many people could not be moved.
Anyway, he has people, and there are a lot of refugees outside, who can be recruited casually, and they will be pushed to be cannon fodder when the time comes.
"Ahem... This matter will be discussed tomorrow, everyone has a good rest, and it is not too late for us to talk about it tomorrow. Hu Yitong interrupted everyone's discussion.
Seeing that everyone was quite excited, he naturally couldn't show his eagerness.
"Okay! Then I will discuss it with my brothers, and I will definitely give a satisfactory answer to the master of Hu Zhai at that time. Lu Ergou, the owner of Haohan Village, got up and said.
"Okay! Then I will wait for your good news! As he spoke, Hu Yitong stood up with a wine bowl.
"It will live up to the expectations of the lord of Hu Zhai!" Everyone at the table also stood up and picked up the wine bowl and echoed it, and then raised their heads and drank all the wine in the bowl.
After eating and drinking, the owners of each village went to the resting house, discussed with one heart, and only after having Pu'er in their hearts did they sleep peacefully.
On the second day, everyone had breakfast, and they didn't move their buttocks, and after everyone was ready, Hu Yitong took the brothers to discuss with everyone again.
The crowd had just begun, and after a while, a boy ran into the council hall.
"Report! The second master of Panlong Village is here! The man shouted all the way and ran all the way into the council hall.
Everyone was shocked, this... They can't help but feel a little weak in their hearts.
"Hahaha...... Everyone's here? I'm also here to join in the fun! The owner of Hu Zhai won't be unwelcome, right? "Before anyone arrives, the voice arrives. I saw two tall men striding into the door of the council hall. He was followed by more than a dozen younger brothers.
These two people are the tallest and strongest second masters in Panlong Village, Ge Zhuang, and the fifth master, Guo Huai. The two of them were already tall, and standing in front of the people sitting on the chairs made them even more imposing.
Hou Ping saw the people from Panlong Village swaggering in, staring at a few people viciously with a pair of eyes.
The moment Hu Yitong saw the two of them, he couldn't help but scold his mother, mother! What are you doing in Panlong Village? How can this be talked about? While thinking, he stood up and smiled: "It turned out to be Ge Er and Guo Wu!" Fortunately, I will be glad to meet you! ”
The others also stood up to greet the two men.
"Oops! You're uninvited, we don't have a place for you here! The second master of Baiyun Village sneered.
"Heh......" Ge Zhuang smiled sarcastically, "We are all a group of bandits, we don't need to be poor, just move two chairs." ”
As soon as the words fell, the subordinates behind him immediately moved two chairs from the side and placed them on the lower right of Hu Yitong, which was opposite the location of Heiyun Village.
Ge Zhuang and Guo Huai nodded with the people from Heiyun Village and sat down arrogantly. "Baiyun Village is so lively, we can't miss Panlong Village! I don't know what's going on? Who's going to tell me? ”
There was silence in the council hall, everyone was dumbfounded, and their eyes couldn't help but look at Hu Yitong.
Hu Zhai master's heart is 10,000, damn, what do you want me to do? I'm afraid he doesn't know that Lao Tzu called you to discuss how to fight Longzhai?
When Hou Ping saw this scene, his eyes rolled, and then a gloomy smile appeared. He made a quick eye exchange with Hu Yitong, and then said, "We are holding a martial arts competition. The heroes in the room can ask for advice from the people they admire. You Panlong Village came ...... time. Before he finished speaking, he was abruptly interrupted by Guo Huai.
"What? Martial arts conference? Guo Huaihe exclaimed exaggeratedly. He turned his head to look at Ge Zhuang with remorse on his face, "Oops! Second brother, we should have brought a few more people a long time ago, let's bring these two people, we really can't join in the fun. ”
Guo Huai's appearance seems to have missed hundreds of millions.
Hou Ping naturally wanted to take advantage of this opportunity to teach Panlongzhai a lesson. didn't expect Guo Huai to not let him finish his words. When it comes to this, they don't want to go too far. Just as he was thinking about how to pull Panlong Village in, Ge Zhuang spoke.
"If you want to play, the owner of Hu Zhai can't stop you from playing, but you can accept the challenge of a few people, but you have to make it clear to everyone first, lest there are too many people who admire you, and everyone will come to ask you, you will not be killed, but you will also be tired to death. I'm not going to help you then. Ge Zhuang looked helpless about his little brother. Turning to everyone, he bowed his hand.
"Master Hu Zhai, everyone here, my fifth brother is naughty, you have to be merciful."
When it came to this, Hou Ping didn't want to say anything, he stepped aside, and Hu Yitong nodded generously, "Since it is a martial arts competition, it naturally has to be fair and just." ”
He glanced at the people below, and was extremely satisfied with Hou Ping's suggestion. First, he can use this opportunity to test the strength of everyone here.
Second, there are more or less dirty disputes between these villages, and this martial arts competition can also intensify the contradictions between the various villages and reduce their strength by the way. Contribute to the implementation of his plans later.
"So be it! To be fair, a person can only accept three challenges. What do you think? The lord of Hu Zhai looked at the people below.
Everyone is sitting down below, how can they have this opportunity to avenge their personal revenge openly?
