Morning.
Yin Ren came to the hall yawning.
Watching two people, one big and one small, sleeping on the table. He shook his head helplessly.
He was very confused as to what these two people were thinking. They would sleep here if they had a good bed. If they didn't have the energy to work and their wages were deducted, when would the 100 taels be returned to me?
He opened the door and kicked Chang Shou's calf:
"Wake up, waiter Chang, get up and clean the tables and chairs."
Chang Shou rubbed his groggy eyes, raised his head, and endured the pain in his body. The tables and chairs were cleaned.
"That's not right. The scary-looking stab wounds yesterday were just ordinary skin wounds. Today they look even more serious."
Chang Shou said nothing and continued to wipe the tables and chairs.
Seeing that Chang Shou didn't speak, Yin Ren didn't intend to go into details, but he accidentally caught a glimpse of the blood stains on Xue Qi's clenched fist, who was sleeping soundly. He still didn't understand why Chang Shou's wounds were aggravated. It must be that the little girl did not get a favor from her yesterday, so she spread all her grievances on Chang Shou.
Thinking of this, Yin Ren shook his head quickly. As expected, women are a taboo in the world.
After Chang Shou finished clearing the tables and chairs, Yin Ren was just about to go to the kitchen to make breakfast when he saw An Xin yawning and coming downstairs.
"Hey. It's so early, boss, and breakfast hasn't been made yet."
"No need to do anything, buy some buns and come back to make breakfast."
After speaking, he yawned and came behind the counter.
Yin Ren was confused and looked at An Xin's listless look and asked:
"Boss, it's not like you to wake up so early."
"It's nothing. Wasn't the Wudang Temple destroyed by someone? I got news that the Nanhai Guanyin Sect wants to succeed Wudang Temple as the leader of the Buddhist sect. Calculating the time, the Nanhai Guanyin Sect's world tour should be arriving in Xin'an Town today."
"Nanhai Guanyin Sect? What kind of cornered sect is this?"
"Um~ It's normal that you don't know. After all, your ancestor, Taoist Xuhai, tricked you into hiding the sect for 300 years three hundred years ago. As a result, there is very little information about them in the world. However, the big forces have some understanding of this sect. 2 In the late stage of dragon transformation, 4 in the middle stage of dragon transformation, and 7 in the early stage of dragon transformation, it barely reaches the level of a large sect.”
"Then why did they come to Xin'an Town?"
"Of course the nonsense comes to me."
Yin Ren was puzzled:
"Why are they looking for you? Do they need your consent if they want to join the world?"
"Of course they don't need my permission to go out to the world, but if they want to go out as the leader of the Shimen, they have to listen to the attitude of the world towards them.
Logically speaking, they should first visit Xingxu Palace to listen to their opinions. After all, Xingxu Palace is now the largest sect in the world. But Xingxu Palace belongs to the leader of the Taoist sect, so it is naturally impossible for them to agree to their return as the leader of the Shimen sect.
So they wanted to talk to me. After all, I am now the number one person in the world, and my words still carry some weight. "
Yin Ren was confused and scratched his head:
"So boss, you woke up so early to agree that they would be born as leaders of the Shimen?"
"No, I don't agree. I plan to trick them again and keep them closed for another three hundred years."
"Uh~"
“You don’t understand, no matter whether it’s the leader of the Shi Sect or the leader of the Dao Sect, such a title is of little use to a sect of the same level, but it is of great use to the sect’s promotion on the lower level.
In the past, people from Xingxu Palace and Dongdao had occasional frictions outside. People from Xingxu Palace never called them the leader of the Taoist sect in front of people from Dongdao. Because they knew that when they said these words, the people in Dongdao who couldn't protect Qi Dongdao would praise them and give them two slaps.
But if Xingxu Palace meets other people, he will always add the title of Taoist leader in front of the sect.
Now you know what I mean. "
Yin Ren shook his head like a rattle.
An Xin sighed, and just when he was about to explain, Chang Shou on the side seemed to understand something:
"Boss, you mean that the Guanyin Sect doesn't want the position of leader of the Shimen, but wants to compete for territory in the world?"
An Xin was stunned, looked at Chang Shou and smiled:
"I didn't expect you to understand? I'm looking down on you."
Chang Shou shook his head:
"As a low-level Jianghu person, I have seen this kind of tactics a lot. In the past, the county I was in was called Zhi County, and there were more than 20 forces, large and small, that were arranged to compete with each other. But in less than 2 years, this county has become The leader of the dominant White Tiger Gang used this trick to conquer 20 forces. "
Seeing everyone looking at him, Chang Shou continued:
"The White Tiger Gang is the most powerful sect in my county, but no matter how powerful it is, it can't attack all the forces at the same time, so the leader of the White Tiger Gang came up with a plan to set up a group called the "Zhi County Gang Council" and he served as the leader He serves as president. He also asks gang members to add this title when they go out to do business.
For a long time, people in Zhizhi County thought that this gang council was an official organization. If there is a child in Zhi County who wants to learn martial arts, they will immediately consider the White Tiger Gang.
The leader of the White Tiger Gang holds the resources of apprentices and tells the outside world that only sects that join the council will get more apprentice resources.
Zhixian County is not big, and there are only a few apprentices. The White Tiger Gang controls the resources of apprentices, so it is natural to attract people's hatred. But after all, interests are at stake, so it’s not a big deal for a few sects to join a guild just because they want to. So he joined the gang council. "
Chang Shou paused and continued:
"The White Tiger Gang recruited one group of people, and the other group of people naturally quit. They united to find a theory with the White Tiger Gang. As a result, the leader of the White Tiger Gang said that you only need to pay 50 taels to join the membership now.
Several sects thought about it and paid 50 taels to get part of the apprenticeship resources. Although the income was less than before, it was better than nothing. Then he took the money and joined the meeting.
The reputation of the gang council is getting bigger and bigger, and it is becoming more and more difficult for the few sects that have not joined the gang to survive. Finally disbanded helplessly.
The leader of the White Tiger Gang is smart. When a sect is disbanded, he immediately finds the leader of the sect and bribes him with benefits.
In this way, the White Tiger Gang became bigger and bigger, collecting money from apprentices and money from the sect. Now, even if there are outside forces that want to form a gang in Zhi County, they must obtain the consent of the White Tiger Gang. "
"Are these sects all fools? Are they watching the White Tiger Gang grow?"
The person who asked the question was naturally Yin Ren.
Chang Shou shook his head:
"If you ask this question, you must have never experienced the difficulties at the bottom. When I was young, I also learned martial arts in a small sect. Although the martial arts of the small sect was not high, there were many intrigues. At that time, several senior brothers in the sect were not familiar with each other. They all formed their own small groups to deal with it. When I started, I still thought about the principle of not offending anyone, so I didn't expect that I was the one who was targeted the most.
From this incident, I learned that it is very difficult to be a human being. If I join a small group casually, I will be treated like a dog by the senior brothers in that group. If I don't join, I will be ostracized by others as an alien.
The same principle applies to the White Tiger Gang's board of directors. Even if others know that joining is a trap, but if you don't join, you are wrong. "
