Chapter 129: The Mystery of the Salt Gang's Ring
"This is the token that has been handed down from the day of the founding of my Haisha Gang, as long as you hold it, you can command millions of Salt Gang disciples in the world, think about the reason why those people are aggressively chasing and killing my Haisha Gang, is for this ring, right?"
Speaking of this, even Na Sha Lianhai couldn't help but show a hint of pride on his face, but this look was fleeting, but it was immediately replaced by a gloom on his face as soon as he appeared.
Since ancient times, salt and iron official camps. Whether in the past or now, salt, as a necessary thing for the people's clothing, food, housing and transportation, has been firmly controlled by the state machine, and it can be said that it is profiteering.
In the Jiangnan generation, there were often salt merchants who operated private salt under the temptation of huge profits, and these people gradually began to scale and institutionalize in the continuous development, and became the salt gang that has been famous since ancient times.
The salt merchants of the Salt Gang are often born in reckless people, and in order to resist the strangulation and suppression of the state apparatus, they gradually developed their own arms, and at the peak of their heyday, it can be said that they are known as tens of millions of disciples, and it can be said that they are a force that cannot be underestimated.
It's just that with the development of the times, the control of the state apparatus over salt has become more and more strengthened, so that the salt gang has gradually begun to decline, and finally it has completely disappeared in the dust of history.
"My Haisha Gang was the largest branch of the Salt Gang back then, with the continuous decline of the Salt Gang, the shili in the gang was gradually divided, and Zuihou, the leader of the Salt Gang, saw that the general trend was irretrievable, so he entrusted this ring token to his eldest disciple and asked him to hide incognito and hide in the recklessness, in order to regroup and revitalize the prestige of the sect in the future!"
I saw Sha Lianhai continue to say very lonely, as if at that moment he felt the anxiety and pain in his heart when the leader of the Salt Gang was irretrievable, and there was a faint helplessness in his expression.
At this time, Xiaolong couldn't help but be slightly taken aback, where did he think that the little Haisha Gang, which seemed to be just a trick, had such a big background!
Although I also know in my heart that the Haisha Gang is located on the coast, and it has such an income as operating private salt, if I want to trace back to the ten generations and eight generations, then it is inevitable that I will be involved in the interests of the Salt Gang back then, but I didn't expect it to be the descendants of the Salt Gang, and I thought that the Salt Gang, which was known as tens of millions of disciples, only had such a meager incense left at this time, Xiaolong couldn't help but feel a slight sense of embarrassment even if he was out of the way.
I think that although this salt gang will inevitably fall apart in the end, and all the disciples are either killed or hidden incognito, but even so, there are still about a million disciples left, who are still operating private salt for a living, and also run other businesses as a cover, and they are faintly echoing each other, and their hidden shili can be said to be extremely huge.
In this way, Xiaolong can be regarded as clear about the preciousness of the other party's Salt Gang ring, obviously the ring that was once the token of the head of the family definitely occupies an extremely important position in the hearts of those hidden disciples, and everyone is nostalgic for the glorious moment of the Salt Gang, it is estimated that as long as someone holds this ring and raises his arm, and with a series of ingenious means, then it is not impossible to condense the scattered shili.
Sure enough, just like the system's prompt, the preciousness of this ring is also in his symbolic sense, if anyone can hold it, then it can't be said to be equivalent to having a million Salt Gang disciples as powerful as Liliang.
However, the next question made Xiaolong very puzzled, thinking that this Haisha Gang not only has such a prominent identity as the head of the Salt Gang, but also has such a noble identity as the head of the family, but why have they been obscure all this time and just hide it deeply? Isn't that equivalent to guarding Baoshan and not knowing how to use it?
And Na Sha Lianhai had obviously already seen the doubts in the hearts of Xiaolong and the others, so he sighed slightly and continued to explain lonely.
"However, because the first leader of our gang saw the huge Salt Gang collapse and turn into ashes in an instant, it can be said that he was discouraged, so he strictly ordered his successors not to use this ring again, otherwise he would be like a traitor.
And although the previous leaders of the Haisha Gang are well aware of the energy contained in this ring, they tremble and abide by the gang rules and dare not have the slightest transgression, let alone the slightest thought, if it were not for the fact that I was blinded by lard and wanted to get my hands on the dragon slaying knife and leak the secret of this ring, I am afraid that the Haisha Gang would not have suffered such an ordeal!"
"Then I don't know what Brother Sha's arrangements will be in the future?"
Seeing that Sha Lianhai's expression was gloomy at this time, and he looked remorseful, Xiaolong couldn't help but immediately divert the topic and continued to ask about Fang Cai's topic.
"Ha! I think that my Haisha Gang has been in business for many years, and how can I completely destroy its foundation with a few killers?
Obviously, Sha Lianhai didn't have any scruples in his heart at this time, so he didn't hesitate to say what he thought in his heart under Xiaolong's questioning, and his expression was cold with a smile full of killing, but he completely rejuvenated the reckless spirit at the beginning.
Seeing that the other party showed some ambition in front of him, but Xiaolong couldn't help but pouted slightly in his heart, how could he not know that the other party wanted to win him over at this time? But Xiaolong was not the young man who was not deeply involved in the world, so he just arched his hand slightly towards Sha Lianhai.
"Then the little brother wishes the eldest brother a successful start this time and a great foundation!"
Seeing that Xiaolong didn't say anything except verbal politeness, Sha Lianhai couldn't help but feel a little anxious in his heart.
Although Sha Lianhai had some scruples about Xiaolong at the beginning and didn't dare to reveal his own secrets and discernment, how could he not see that Xiaolong not only had a good martial arts, but also faintly had a not weak shili behind him, and the reason why he had no choice but to shake out all the secrets was because he wanted to win him over, after all, with Xiaolong's martial arts, if he could join his side, then it would definitely be a big help.
However, at this time, seeing Xiaolong's calm appearance, Sha Lianhai couldn't sit still, and immediately after being slightly silent, he asked with a hint of inquiry.
"I don't know if my brother is interested in joining? I think that with my brother's martial arts and character, he will definitely do something in the future, and I can't say that I can really revive the prestige of the Salt Gang back then!"
"I'm just a grassy person, although I greatly admire the ambition of my eldest brother, but my personality is extremely lazy, as for this addition, don't mention it again, right?"
Xiaolong smiled and said lightly, and then stopped talking.
I didn't expect that under such a wooing, the other party actually gave such a soft nail, which immediately made Sha Lianhai slightly depressed, and when he was about to say something, he suddenly waved his hand, but signaled a few people not to make a sound.
Sure enough, after everyone quieted down with Xiaolong's gestures, they could only hear a faint noise in the courtyard outside, and Cheng Ying hurriedly rushed forward to open the door and look at it for a while, but turned his head suspiciously and said to Xiaolong: "It's a group of beggars!"
"Beggars?"
Xiaolong couldn't help but be slightly stunned, and then suddenly came to his senses, slapped his thigh hard, and then said to Cheng Ying, "Cheng Cheng, hurry up and open the door, it's the nobleman who is here!"
As he spoke, he stood up and rushed out of the chamber without saying anything, only to see that at this time, in the courtyard in front of the door, there were more than a dozen men dressed as beggars, surrounded by a big man with a mighty face who was walking towards this side.
"Brother Lu?"
Xiaolong recognized the identity of the other party almost at a glance, and even quickly shouted and hurried over.
And Na Lu Youjiao saw that the person walking towards him was the little dragon that he couldn't find, but he couldn't help but say a few words aloud, and then walked towards him as well.
