Chapter 33: A Way to Live
Teng Qingshan has read the "Land List" compiled by Vientiane Gate, and he also knows some about the masters of the world, in the land of Kyushu, like the White Horse Gang Hong Siye, he is an extremely powerful master in the peak of the day after tomorrow. He established the White Horse Gang, and there must be a group of masters with internal strength under his command.
"This Iron Mountain Gang dares to compete with the White Horse Gang, and there are also some masters of internal strength. However, horse thieves are horse thieves after all, and they can't attract real strong people, and I'm afraid that these are all masters of internal strength who came out to join the robbers and bandits when their respective sects were unwilling. Teng Qingshan is very aware of his strength.
Today's self is much stronger than the peak state in his previous life.
I'm afraid that even if these people's swords stab themselves, they can't break through the skin and muscles!
Qiang!Qiang!Qiang......
Thirteen sharp swords stabbed at Teng Qingshan, who was in the center, with a cold light. The spear in Teng Qingshan's hand danced suddenly, as if a whirlwind swept through the surroundings, and it even resisted all the sharp swords at the same time in an instant.
"Good marksmanship!" The eyes of the second leader of the Iron Mountain Gang, who watched this scene, lit up, "However, this marksmanship ...... I've never seen it before, what kind of sect is the marksmanship?"
These two masters are not well-informed, and he has seen the marksmanship of many sects, but he can't see through Teng Qingshan's marksmanship.
......
The clansmen of the Teng clan all watched this scene with their hearts, in their eyes, the long swords of the thirteen men continued one after another like a torrential rain, and they were afraid that Teng Qingshan would be stabbed if he slowed down a little.
"Aoyama. Mother Yuan Lan was very nervous.
"Mother, brother, he's the best. Qingyu next to her believed in her brother very much.
Not only are the Teng clan concerned, but the horse thieves of the Iron Mountain Gang also attach great importance to this fight, if they lose, it will be a shame. Teng Qingshan and the Thirteen Swordsmen fought with each other for a long time, and the second master who was riding on the red fire horse had a sinking face and shouted, "Hurry up and solve it." "After fighting for so long, Teng Qingshan has not been injured, which makes the second master a little dissatisfied.
Teng Qingshan has actually been observing the other party's swordsmanship, after all, when he came to this world, he has not really fought with the master of the inner family: "This swordsmanship is also extraordinary, one move and one style are like flowing water, they are connected to each other, especially after instilling internal strength, the power is really great enough." But it's obvious...... These swordsmen are still in the 'form' stage, and they haven't figured out the meaning of swordsmanship!"
Teng Qingshan's marksmanship seems complicated.
In fact, from beginning to end, he used the same trick - the mixed element one air gun technique!
Teng Qingshan's practice of guns is the meaning of practice.
Meaning, that's right, those random moves contain great power.
"Just these sword moves, the person who created this sword array is very good. But when these people use it, their power is average. Teng Qingshan said secretly in his heart.
"Chaotic sword style!" shouted one of the thirteen sword-wielding men.
Suddenly, the sword shadows of thirteen sharp swords, dense like thirteen silver flowers, covered Teng Qingshan.
Teng Qingshan, who was in the center of the sword formation, shouted suddenly: "Let go!"
The thirteen swordsmen only felt that the power contained in the spear in Teng Qingshan's hand was suddenly incredibly great, as if a boulder had smashed on their long sword, and they could only hear "Bang!", "Bang!", "Bang!", "Bang!......", "Bang!", There was a loud noise, and all thirteen long swords fell to the ground.
"How could it be ......?"
The thirteen swordsmen looked at Teng Qingshan in the center in horror, their right hands trembled, the tiger's mouth was torn open, and blood flowed.
Quiescence!
Many horse thieves on the martial arts training ground were stunned, almost all of the people in the Iron Mountain Gang who could ride blue-maned horses were masters of internal strength, and the thirteen masters joined forces and were defeated. It's incredible.
Teng Qingshan strode towards his own people, and those horse thieves were afraid to get out of the way, allowing Teng Qingshan to return to the clan.
"Good!"
"Well played. ”
A group of clansmen in Tengjiazhuang were jubilant, and they were very excited.
"Aoyama, well done. Grandfather Teng Yunlong also patted Teng Qingshan's shoulder, Teng Qingshan smiled, then turned his head, stretched out his hand and pressed down, and the people of Tengjiazhuang quieted down.
"Two masters. "The thirteen swordsmen were ashamed and whispered to the side of the second master, is the second master's face difficult to see?" The thirteen swordsmen immediately retreated to the side, but the second master looked at Teng Qingshan, but laughed: "Good, good, good marksmanship." ”
"Then if you hurt my men, you will stop it. The second master rode on the red fire horse, and said with a condescending smile, "You Tengjiazhuang, give us a sum of annual money from the Tieshan Gang, then we will leave immediately." ”
"New Year's money?" Teng Qingshan said, "Dare to ask the second master, how much money is this year?" It was also when he heard the thirteen swordsmen call him the 'second master', Teng Qingshan knew that this person was the second leader of the three leaders of the Tieshan Gang. Legend has it that the Iron Mountain Gang is the three masters, and the strongest is the big boss.
"Two taels of silver for one person. The two masters said loudly.
"Two taels of silver! This, isn't this cannibalism? ”
"Why is it so high. ”
"Don't let us live. ”
The people of Tengjiazhuang were in an uproar, and even Teng Yunlong, Teng Yongfan and others also changed their faces greatly, two taels of silver per person, and the proportion of money this year was too exaggerated. It must be known that the White Horse Gang also charges one and a half taels of silver.
"Two masters. "Teng Qingshan's face is not very good, is it too high?"
"Is it high? Your Tengjiazhuang is a well-known and wealthy Zhuangzi around, and there should be more than 2,000 people in one of your Zhuangzi. However, I will count it according to 2,000 people. Two taels of silver per person, it shouldn't be difficult for you to take out four thousand taels of silver. The second master sneered, "That big Li Zhuang and some other poor Zhuangzi, we all accept two taels of silver per person, today, I am giving your little brother face, so I only accept you two taels of silver." ”
Teng Qingshan finally understood why Heimuzhuang refused to hand over and led to the slaughter of the village.
Because, this Iron Mountain Gang is too greedy.
To know......
The treasury of the Tengjiazhuang clan is estimated to be about 20,000 taels. And, of course, ferret and wolf king skins. But if it weren't for Teng Qingshan, there would be no ferret skin, wolf king skin, and even the business of Yangzhou salt merchants would be swallowed up by 10,000 taels of silver.
The living conditions of the Tengjiazhuang people are good, and they usually consume a lot, so there is not much money left in the clan.
Collect 4,000 taels of silver at one time, and after a few years, Tengjiazhuang will tighten his belt and save money. In the future, I will not dare to eat the meat, and I will have to sell the meat for hunting, and I will not dare to buy cloth to make new clothes, so I will save money.
"Two masters. Teng Qingshan said loudly, "You should also know that we mountain people only earn a little silver a year, and a family earns a dozen taels of silver a year." It's already good. But normal eating and drinking costs half of it. And a family, there are generally four or five people. You, the Tieshan Gang, will receive two taels of silver for each person, and you will receive nearly ten taels of silver for that family! The White Horse Gang will collect the New Year's money, how much more money do we have left?
Teng Qingshan is the leader of the hunter team in the clan, and the monthly salary given by the clan is ten taels of silver, which is one hundred and twenty taels a year. This is the highest in the entire Zhuangzi. The leader of the hunter team, the master of marksmanship, and the first blacksmith, the three of them are the highest in the month.
And the average strong man in the clan has only one tael of silver per month, twelve taels a year. This is not bad among civilians.
And in a family, a strong man has to support women, children, and the elderly. When a woman farms, in addition to providing food for her family, she can also get two or three taels of silver. A family's annual income is not high. Past...... Just by paying the money of the White Horse Gang, the clansmen of Tengjiazhuang can still live a good life.
But if you pay the high annual money of the Iron Mountain Gang, then in the future, it will really be a problem to eat and drink.
"Don't talk nonsense here. The second master who was sitting on the horse sank, his face sank, "That big Li Zhuang, one person can afford two taels of silver, so you can't afford to pay it?"
"Aoyama. Teng Yunlong pulled Teng Qingshan's arm, approached Teng Qingshan, lowered his voice and whispered, "This second master is too strong, and he will knock off the gate of our Zhuangzi with a hammer, he definitely has ten thousand catties of strength, and it is not easy to provoke." Four thousand taels of silver, let's bear with it for the time being, and hand it over first. The White Horse Gang and the Iron Mountain Gang will definitely be separated one day. ”
"This old man is right!" the second master laughed and said, "Our Iron Mountain Gang and the White Horse Gang will definitely be separated, and when the time comes, when the White Horse Gang is finished, our Iron Mountain Gang will also reduce the annual income, and we also know how to go a long way." ”
Teng Yunlong's face changed, and he lowered his voice, thinking that the two masters couldn't hear it. I didn't expect the other party to hear it clearly.
"Wait for the White Horse Gang to finish, and then reduce the annual money?" Teng Qingshan felt a burst of anger in his heart.
Who knows how long it will take for the two major gangs to decide the winners? In the past history, gangs have competed for more than 10 years, and it is not unprecedented.
"Second master, this time, we can endure it, we can make up for it, and make up such a sum of money, but what will we do next time we Zhuangzi?" Teng Qingshan's body rushed from his legs into the earth, rushing in the direction of the horse thief.
Suddenly, the ground shook violently.
"Boom~~~" From the foot of Teng Qingshan, the ground cracked and stretched in the direction of the horse thief. The war horses jumped up in shock, "Law ~~" The war horses rushed wildly, and many horse thieves were thrown off their horses. There was a panic in the group of horse thieves, but the second master's face changed slightly, and he said secretly: "This kid has such strong internal strength." ”
The crooked cracks on the martial arts training ground look very hideous.
Teng Qingshan stared at the second master, his eyes were sharp, and his voice was low: "Second master, I hope you can give Tengjiazhuang a way to live!"
