Volume 1 Life Experience Ups and Downs Chapter 63 Five Grandmasters and Three Mountain Gates
Ye Zhiqiu said: "In addition to our Ye family, there are also Jinyang Hua family, Changnan Li family, Guandong Xin family, Xijing Yue family, Wuzhou Xu family, Luzhou Meng family, Bozhou Xie family, Luozhou Tian family, Xin'an Wang family. ”
"What do these families do for a living?"
Ye Zhiqiu smiled and said, "These families have a lot of livelihoods, and all aspects of anyone's life are indispensable to deal with them. And it's not, a family does one thing for a living. ”
"For example, our Ye family is not only opening a bounty pavilion, but also the manufacture of force equipment, refining medicine, etc., our Ye family is involved. It's just that the Bounty Pavilion is the most famous. ”
"What are the other families most famous for?"
"The Hua family's largest industries are mining, smelting, and ordnance making, and at least one-third of the silver on the market comes from their family. ”
"The Li family in Changnan mainly produces porcelain, cloth, silk and other daily necessities, and is the richest. The Xin family has more than 1,000 farms all over the country, covering an area of tens of millions of mu, and is the largest grain merchant in China. ”
"The Yue family is the largest construction contractor, with projects in major cities in the Eastern Chu Kingdom, and they have also participated in the construction of many military fortresses. The Xu family is not only a big salt merchant, but also the condiments that the common people need for their lives, no matter the ups and downs, they sell the most. ”
"The Meng family is a family of poets and scholars, and the Meng family school was founded, which is the intellectual banner of the Chu State, and even the speaker Han Zhaosong is a student of his family. The Xie family is a big pharmacist, whether it is the medicine used by ordinary people or the medicine needed by cultivators, he sells the most. ”
"The Tian family is a big manufacturer, and half of the military steam cars are made by their enterprises. The Wang family is a well-known banker, and the money is as abundant as the water in the sea. ”
"Oh. Wang Xiaotian nodded and said, "These family cores have always been family children who have been cultivated since childhood, right?"
The implication is that the core of your family is your own people, and I am an outsider, what future can I get?
Ye Zhiqiu said: "If any organization wants to grow, it needs talents, and it needs a lot of talents. Although these families are family inheritance, it is certainly not enough to rely entirely on the children of the family, and it is inevitable to recruit talents from outside. ”
"As the old saying goes, 'If you can't bear the child, you can't trap the wolf'. If you want to retain talent, especially top talent, you can't be stingy. There will definitely be a place in the family core for these introduced talents. These families can be inherited for hundreds of years, and this vision and mind are still there. It's just that whether you can enter the core and participate in decision-making depends on your personal ability. ”
Wang Xiaotian nodded.
Ye Zhiqiu said again: "There is another way to retain talents. ”
"What's the solution?"
Ye Zhiqiu smiled slightly and said, "Turn him into your own." ”
Wang Xiaotian was puzzled. Ling Yanzi, who had not spoken, suddenly sneered and said, "It's a marriage." ”
She didn't target Ye Zhiqiu, she just remembered what happened to her, and she couldn't help but feel resentful.
Ye Zhiqiu was still young and couldn't understand the meaning of Ling Yanzi's sneer, so he said seriously: "It's not all. There are also acceptance as adopted sons, acceptance as disciples, alliances, and so on. Marriage and son-in-law are actually rare. ”
Wang Xiaotian nodded, thought for a moment, and said, "Thank you Miss Zhiqiu for solving our doubts." It's a pity that we can't promise you to join the Ye family. ”
Ye Zhiqiu was puzzled, "Why is that? Is there a better way out for you? Are you from other families?"
Wang Xiaotian and Ling Yanzi shook their heads, "No." ”
Ye Zhiqiu frowned with slender eyebrows, "It's not from other families." Could it be that you are the people of the Five Grandmasters and the Three Mountain Gates?"
Wang Xiaotian and Ling Yanzi were suddenly confused, they looked at each other and said in unison, "What are these?"
Ye Zhiqiu was completely stunned at this time. You don't know about the Ten Families, it may be that you "don't listen to things outside the window with both ears, and concentrate on cultivating and advancing to the level", and you don't know that these business-related families are excusable.
The Five Grandmasters didn't even know that? That was the example of all cultivators, like the sun and moon in the sky, and you didn't even know that? Shouldn't you have been instilled by your elders from childhood to be a dazzling existence like the Five Grandmasters to cultivate hard and ascend to the top of martial arts as soon as possible?
As for the Sanshan Gate, it is also the Taihang Wangya of the cultivation world, who doesn't know which one doesn't know? Are you still not cultivators? Are you still not from the Eastern Chu Kingdom?
Ye Zhiqiu saw that the expressions of the two were not fake, so he asked suspiciously, "You really don't know the Fifth Grandmaster?"
The two shook their heads.
"I don't know about Sanshanmen?"
The two shook their heads again.
Ye Zhiqiu asked again, "Aren't you making fun of me?"
The two shook their heads quickly.
Ye Zhiqiu straightened the messy hair on his sideburns and said, "Okay, since you don't know, then I'll tell you what I know." Well, actually, I know some news on the side of the road, so you should just listen to it. ”
"The Five Grandmasters are the ones who make up the Supreme Council today, the five Rank 8 Force Grandmasters. Among them, there are two in the military, one is Marshal Xue Weifeng of the Territorial Defense Force, and the other is Marshal Yang Liren, honorary chief of the Military General Staff. ”
"The other three, there are Chen Yiping, the former sect master of the Sword Pavilion, and the two scattered cultivation masters Zhang Zijing and Hu Minghui. They have been famous for a long time, and many practitioners may not have heard of them. ”
"As for the Three Mountain Gate, it refers to the three most famous cultivation sects on the rivers and lakes: Sword Pavilion, Wufeng Mountain, and Kuaiyi Gate. ”
"These three schools of practice have been inherited for nearly a thousand years and have accumulated a vast number of cultivation techniques, which can be described as broad and profound. No matter what kind of talent you have, you can find suitable cultivation techniques from these sects. ”
Therefore, these three sects have attracted many young cultivators to join them. And enough fresh blood has further strengthened these sects, forming a virtuous circle. In addition to the Three Mountain Gate, there are actually many other sects, but they are not as famous as the Three Mountain Gate. ”
Wang Xiaotian thought for a moment and said, "What is the relationship between your Tenth Family and the Sanshanmen? Competition or Cooperation?"
Ye Zhiqiu said: "Of course, there is more cooperation. Sanshanmen takes apprenticeship as its business, and naturally opens the mountain gate and teaches it by collecting talents from all over the world. As long as you have the talent of the Force, have a clean background, can pass their exams, and pay the tuition, anyone can enter the mountain gate to study. ”
"Many of the disciples of the Three Mountains Sect are from the Tenth Family. Except for a very small number of these people, they choose to stay in the mountain gate for the rest of their lives, and the vast majority of them will go down the mountain to seek their own future after completing their studies. ”
"Those who come from a family or have an estate in the family will naturally return to work at home, and sometimes invite some brothers to work for the family. Some will choose to join the military or continue their education at a military school. There are many disciples of Kuaiyimen who choose to join the army, and they have faintly become a force to be reckoned with in the army. ”
"As for the competition, it is mainly the industries related to cultivation in the Sanshan Gate, such as alchemy, the production of Force equipment, and the research of Force equipment. Those worldly related industries are generally not involved in Sanshanmen. Most of the time it is done with the help of our family's workshops. ”
After listening to Ye Zhiqiu's description, Wang Xiaotian had a general idea of the Five Grandmasters, the Three Mountain Sects, and the Tenth Family.
The Five Grandmasters are the five Rank 8 Force Grandmasters at the top of the cultivation pyramid. It can be said that the mountains are uplifted, and the stars hold the moon.
The Three Mountains Gate is the university of cultivators, and it is the top one.
The 10th family and the military are the workplace.
Practitioners study at Sanshanmen (University), and after completing their studies, except for a few, they stay in school to teach or do research, and most of them have to enter the workplace to work hard. Among them, the Ten Families and the Army are the best choices.
The Tenth Family is similar to the top 100 enterprises, and the military is a state-owned enterprise with iron jobs.
Wang Xiaotian suddenly thought, what is he like this? Self-taught?
Ye Zhiqiu saw the reaction of the two and said, "Since you are not disciples of the Five Grandmasters and Three Mountain Sects, why don't you want to join our Ye family in Kwun Tong?"
Wang Xiaotian has too many secrets on his body, and he doesn't want to be too involved with any forces. Therefore, he can only find a reason to shirk the past first.
So, he said, "Thank you Miss Zhiqiu for solving our doubts." It's just that we already have a teacher, and we need to serve for the teacher in the future, so we can only live up to the girl's good intentions. ”
Ye Zhiqiu's face showed disappointment when he heard this.
Cultivation is not easy. For practitioners, the family is more important than the worldly family. Since the two of them have a teacher, they naturally will not easily change their courts, otherwise they will be spurned and severely punished by the teacher.
However, Ye Zhiqiu is not without opportunities. The master is only responsible for training, and when the two of them leave the school, they will continue to stay in the master to serve. At that time, she can still think of recruiting the two of them.
Thinking of this, Ye Zhiqiu's heart was slightly calm. She suddenly saw the firearm Wang Xiaotian was carrying, and said in surprise: "Huh——。 In the Bounty Pavilion in the morning, I didn't see you carrying the Force Gun. This shot ...... It's weird, can you lend me a look?"
Wang Xiaotian nodded and handed the gun to Ye Zhiqiu. Ye Zhiqiu took it and looked at it repeatedly, and said, "Where did this gun come from?"
Wang Xiaotian felt that he hadn't done anything bad, so he told him about his experience, but he just hid the part where the egg scumbag teased Ling Yanzi and was broken by Ling Yanzi.
After hearing this, Ye Zhiqiu sighed with envy: "I knew that I didn't wait for the equipment, and I followed you." In just half a day, so many wonderful things have happened, it is a pity to miss it. ”
Wang Xiaotian shook his head secretly, it seems that this girl is also a master who is not afraid of things, if she was there just now, I don't know what kind of situation it will turn into.
He hurriedly changed the topic and said, "Miss Zhiqiu, is there a problem with this gun?"
Ye Zhiqiu looked at the Force Gun and said, "This is the army's standard weapon. ”
Wang Xiaotian nodded and said, "It should be." ”
Ye Zhiqiu saw that he still didn't understand, and said: "How much do you lack social common sense? If you wander around with a military standard weapon, you will be interrogated by the sheriff, and if there are no legal procedures, not only will the gun be confiscated, but people will also be arrested." ”
Wang Xiaotian was stunned, "So serious?"
Ye Zhiqiu nodded, and said, "It's so serious." However, it will be no problem to modify it. Or you sell it to the Bounty Pavilion and buy another civilian one. ”
"And how much is this gun worth?"
Ye Zhiqiu handed over the gun and said, "I estimate that it should be about 200,000." However, because there are no formal procedures, you have to discount it. If you can trust me, when you return to Shangyang, I will change you to a civilian one. ”
Wang Xiaotian took the gun and put it on his back, "That's good." I'll look for you when I get back to Shangyang. ”
Ye Zhiqiu said: "Aren't you going back to hand in the task now?"
Wang Xiaotian said: "I just won some compensation for the residents of the settlement, and I plan to go to the settlement first to see what they need and use the money to buy it for them." ”
"Ahem, what are you doing so much. Ye Zhiqiu waved his hand angrily, "Give them the money and let them watch it for themselves." I gave them a sum of money just now. ”
Wang Xiaotian looked at Ye Zhiqiu in surprise, "Just now, did you go to the settlement and gave them money?"
