Chapter 6 Retreat Planning
In the early morning of the next day, according to the memory of the owner of this body, Guan Chang dug out the private money from the pond behind the cave.
The last time I went to look for the things left by the master, I just triggered the memories of these buried things. Guan Chang thought to himself that this little gangster Guan Chang really had a lot of eyes, and the money deducted from the master was sixty taels of silver!
In this era, it is not a small amount of money to have so much silver, and if it is all exchanged for grain and calculated according to the parity of the good year, its purchasing power is enough for these brothers to eat until they die of old age.
Guan Chang took out all the money as the starting capital of the sect, and he firmly believed that the money spent was meaningful.
Wang Qihe and Song Xiong have seen the world, and they usually have some broken silver on their bodies. The other juniors have been drooling since they saw Bai Huahua's silver. Jiang Tang and Li Siwen have never been out of this Yinling Mountain, although Ma Dadao has been an apprentice in a restaurant in the county, but after all, they are doing chores in the kitchen, and these people have never seen silver at all!
Guan Chang handed over all the silver to Song Xiong for safekeeping, which was very generous.
In fact, he had secretly observed these juniors for a long time, only Song Xiong seemed to be worth a lot of money, and a folding fan and waist ornaments alone were not affordable by ordinary rich people.
He didn't understand why the rich boy wanted to experience life with him, but he knew that Song Xiong must not look down on the silver, and it couldn't be better for him to manage the money. There is also the most important reason: among all the junior disciples, Song Xiong is the only one who can mentally calculate addition and subtraction within a hundred......
After Song Xiong and Guan Chang simply handed over this "huge amount", Guan Chang had to retreat in the cave for a few days.
Before the retreat, he also arranged a few days for each of them.
Wang Qihe went to the county seat to hire a few skilled blacksmiths, carpenters, and stonemasons, and paid them a high salary for their work during this time, even half of the long-term work.
Song Xiong went to the county seat. Guan Chang asked him to visit the house to learn about some mansions for sale or rent, but not to buy.
Li Siwen contacted the Li family, his cousin and cousin were good hunters, and they were very familiar with the mountains and landforms of Yinling.
Ma Dadao settled the money of the rented land with the patriarch, and got some ingredients by the way. He needed to prepare rations for the next few days.
Jiang Tang is responsible for collecting some sundries that can be used for hunting in the mountains. Some of the senior brothers' requirements are also quite tricky, what are the more than 20 axes of different sizes used for?
Several junior brothers were commanded by the senior brother in charge like headless flies, but Guan Chang was quiet in the cave......
Guan Chang traveled to a world with martial arts, and was full of curiosity about the various divine skills he once longed for.
His memory of his previous practice was too vague to give him any reference. Fortunately, the master also left him the foundation of the founding of the mountain and the secret book of martial arts.
Guan Chang carefully studied the "Lu Family Fist Book" and "Forging Body Activation Sutra" left by the master. During this period, there were many obscure places, but fortunately, the master still left a codex to solve his doubts.
"Lu Family Boxing Spectrum" is a set of practical boxing methods summarized by the invincible Lu Diao Diao on the basis of his ancestors.
Master Lu described the characteristics and realm of this fist technique in twenty words.
Raise your fist as a shield, punch like an arrow, close your fist like a bow, no fist intentional, fist invincible.
Raise your fist as a shield. Literally, a fist is the best defense. The first layer of Lu Jiaquan is almost all defensive and blocking moves, and it takes two years of cultivation with the "Forging Body Activation Sutra". If you reach a small level, you can continue to practice the attack moves later.
Punch like a point. Punch and attack like an arrow. The mystery of it is speed, which coincides with the high theory that "the world's martial arts are only fast and unbreakable". Arrows are not only fast, but also highly directive. This requires sufficient judgment and accuracy on the part of the practitioner!
This part of the cultivation of fast, accurate, and steady should take at least three to five years. If you don't have enough talent or are uncertain, you can choose to give up here. Master Lu's codex also mentions that the cultivation here can be combined with some secret weapon techniques.
Guan Chang looked at the fragments of several pages in the book titled "Exploring the Stars and the Moon", which used a large number of gestures to explain the basics of hidden weapon throwing. Guan Chang looked at the fingering on a certain page, thoughtful.
He suddenly reached out in the air, and quickly clenched into a fist, and then popped his fingers out. The candle flame flickered, followed by a crackling sound.
It turned out that Guan Chang had just caught a ladybug with the move of exploring the stars and catching the moon, and then accurately flicked into the candle flame and penetrated out. The poor ladybug hit the corner of the wall and crawled away strongly.
Guan Chang nodded, very satisfied with his skills. He has reached the end of his life at this level, and he is even quite accomplished in throwing hidden weapons.
Tighten your fist like a bow. When punching and retracting, like a bow, it must be able to immediately return to its original state. This sentence is talking about not procrastinating the switch between offense and defense, and the recruitment should be very agile to minimize flaws. If you do this layer of fist like a bow, you can have both offense and defense. Anyone who can practice this level of Lu family boxing is already a master in the martial arts.
Guan Chang read a book and gestured twice. He found that he had managed to barely close his fist like a bow, and it was counted as half at first, oh no—even three quarters of a master!
No punches intended. After a long period of training, the martial arts and their bodies have a wonderful fit, and finally form their own fist intent. In a realm, every gesture and even a look contains the momentum of the Lu family's boxing technique.
Guan Chang felt that this was a bit mysterious, and he preferred to use "conditioned reflex" and "aura suppression" to explain "no fist intentional". That is, let boxing become your own instinct, and let the momentum and personality charm honed by long-term martial arts practice be released.
Tsk, Yushu's "fist intentionally closes the master" is coming, and the enemy still doesn't run away from the wind? It's a pity that the head of the gate hasn't touched this layer yet...... Guan Chang coughed awkwardly as he made up for his future martial arts achievements.
Punches are invincible. This is the sublimation of the intentional realm of no fist, and it is also a stunt that can only be practiced by the invincible Lu Diao Diao. Guan Chang's memory does not have the picture of the master using a special move against the enemy, and he really can't make up for this layer in his brain.
But he had a thought lingering in his mind: it can't be a one-punch man, right? If you think about it, Master, his old man seems to be really bald!
The first few days of the retreat were all about martial arts, and the last two days were spent thinking about the next "tiger fighting plan".
His earliest idea was to take the villagers to get rich with some future black technology like other traversers. Climb science and technology first, and then push business.
But when he was making a big fuss, he was forcibly inaccessed by Li Siwen's child...... So "helping" Majiacun to get rich became "helping" Li Jiazi to fight the tiger and take revenge......
As Song Xiong analyzed, there are many benefits to fighting tigers, but what he wants is more targeted than Song Xiong.
What Guan Chang values most is that the team can understand the team, expose problems, and validate ideas.
I have some ideas for the construction of the sect, but I can't just rely on the idea and bury my head in hard work.
Guan Chang encountered this kind of project when he first started making games. A couple of planners have a good idea, and they do it based on the idea alone.
Ideas are always good, but there are a large number of factors that constrain the original idea when it comes to practice. There are even some ideas that seem cool that prove to be out of place after being tested by players and the market.
Once you find out that you have the wrong idea of the game in the middle of the project or even when you go live, it will be a fatal blow to the whole team.
In the early years of the development of the game industry, there were many projects that failed because the initial idea was not well verified. However, with the maturity of the industry, this dry method has long been eliminated. The verification of the idea is mentioned in the early stage of the project, and there is a special evaluation system! This increases the difficulty of the project, but it does improve the survival rate of the project.
Now that there are lessons from the past, before putting in the effort to roll up your sleeves and work hard, you must first verify these assumptions.
The first idea is about the practice of martial arts itself.
After a few days of retreat, he had figured out the process of his martial arts practice. He believes that some aspects can be simplified, which is not cutting corners and being lazy.
Guan Chang has mastered some of the modern fighting and physical training concepts that people of this era do not have, and he wants to try the effect of combining ancient and modern!
In addition, there are overlapping parts of the first three cultivations, and if they are practiced together in an appropriate way, they are likely to get twice the result with half the effort.
The second idea is about sect building.
Guan Chang must think of a way to make money for his sect, and the so-called financial good does not refer to his dozens of taels of silver.
In this era, there is huge room for improvement in clothing, food, housing and transportation.
"Clothing" and "food" are too constrained by the relationship between supply and demand and the cost of raw materials.
The "travel" aspect is mainly to improve road conditions and upgrade the means of transportation, so that the current ability to close the flow is directly excluded.
Guan Chang aimed at "living"! His second idea was decoration and furniture design, and he asked Song Xiong to do market research.
Both of his ideas need to be verified in this "tiger fighting plan" and the subsequent direction and plan will be adjusted according to the results. In other words, the first demo version of the large-scale martial arts sandbox game produced and planned by Guan Zhangmen - "Fighting Tigers on the Mountain" is about to be born!
Guan Chang decided to upgrade the tiger fighting party to a field training, and he and several junior disciples trained while marching, and carried out high-intensity martial arts practice in actual life. Usually open up mountains and roads to strengthen the body, and when encountering fierce beasts, they will fight in a team to hone their martial arts.
On the other hand, the artisan group he asked Wang Qihe to find would build several Orion huts along the road for supplies, which was really a big win. First, they can help other hunters to achieve the purpose of helping others, and secondly, these craftsmen will use these hunter huts to practice their hands and prepare for future money-making plans.
Craftsmen would use drawings drawn during the few days of retreat to build huts, as well as try to create furniture and fixtures that were not available in this era. In Guan Chang's plan, he planned to develop these craftsmen into the outer sect of his own sect, not responsible for practicing martial arts, only responsible for supporting his family!
