Chapter 129: Senior Brother Wu Monthly Ticket to Open the Altar
Chapter 129: Brother Wu opens the forum (please subscribe for a monthly ticket)
Wu Dong's life has actually been pretty good lately.
Don't look at him wandering around with his little brother, looking like he has no stable place to stay, but that's just out of caution.
The ten war horses captured from the official cavalry gave him and his subordinates enough mobility to move in immediately if they noticed something was wrong.
In other words, there are ten war horses for eleven talents, so it is a bit of a headache to allocate them.
After riding around on horseback all day long, what Wu Dong didn't expect was that his understanding of horse riding postures would actually reach a higher level.
In the past, zhanzhuang was zhanzhuang, and we exercised our bodies by transporting qi and blood according to our habits.
As for the effect, Wu Dong didn’t know it without the equipment to test it.
But now, through being in contact with war horses every day, he gradually started to feel like a horse galloping when he stood on the horse's stance.
Sometimes I am so absorbed in myself that I can even vaguely hear the sound of Qi and blood flowing through my body.
Tsk, that’s how the horse-stepping pile stands.
In his previous life, he had been staying in the main village of Evil Tiger Village and had no missions to go out, so he didn't have many opportunities to interact with horses.
As for being in the Once Upon a Time movie world, I had been living in the south and had few opportunities to ride horses. I didn’t want to be here in Yan Zhendong’s hometown, where I could ride horses every day and still have free time to figure out Zhuang Gong.
The originally astonishing appetite became even more exaggerated after the changes in Mabu Zhuangzhuang Kung Fu.
Without two or three kilograms of rice or noodles for each meal, there is simply not enough food.
This still has meat and vegetables, and on the premise of ensuring oil and water, it is a standard rice bucket.
These days, he and his little brother change places every day.
Speaking of which, those who entertained them were almost all Boxers under Senior Brother Li.
The tragedy that happened in Lizhuang spread quickly around the area.
Except for the unlucky Senior Brother Wang and Senior Brother Li, Wu Dong's reputation became unexpectedly loud.
For no other reason, the army raided Li Zhuang this time. Senior Brother Wang and local snake Brother Li were both unlucky, and only Wu Dong escaped safely.
Looking at the ten war horses he brought with him, as long as his brain was not filled with water, he would basically understand what was going on.
In addition, Wu Dong is already somewhat famous and is friends with Senior Brother Li, so what else is there to say?
When traveling around every day, he must spend the night in a village. Naturally, the young boxers in the village must treat him well.
It doesn't require them to pay, and they don't have the capital.
I only need to help provide a place to stay, and at the same time help purchase a batch of food privately, and even have two good meals along with me.
It can be said that Wu Dong has been hanging out with the boxers these days...
Of course he won't instigate anything, it's just normal communication, but his relationship with some boxers is actually pretty good.
Wu Dong had previously thought about whether there would be any problems or obstacles in using such human connections to join the Boxers.
Unexpectedly, when I fell asleep, Yan Zhendong brought me a pillow.
How could he be polite? He directly explained the conditions clearly to Yan Zhendong.
After all, he had been wandering around Yan Zhendong's hometown for a month or so, and basically knew everything he needed to know.
Wu Dong saw everything about the living conditions of the people at the bottom and how the gang of squire and landlords managed their business, and even recorded some of the situations.
Now that there is such a good opportunity, it is natural to discuss the terms carefully.
When Yan Zhendong heard that there was an opportunity, he ignored the doubts that flashed in his heart and hurriedly asked Wu Dong to tell him all his conditions and said that he would work hard to make it happen.
If you are one of us, you will naturally not sit with your butt tilted.
Wu Dong did not make any excessive demands. He just hoped that in the process of accepting the boxers, he would not cause trouble and at the same time give away some insignificant benefits.
Without saying a word, Yan Zhendong returned to the county town with Wu Dong's conditions.
"What, Master Yan is saying that your disciple Wu Dong is willing to take over the affairs of the boxers?"
"Yes, Mr. Chen, after much thought, Yan thinks he is the most suitable candidate!"
"There won't be any problem, right? I heard that this guy is very lawless, and the officers and soldiers have suffered a loss at his hands!"
"It's just self-protection. Didn't the officers and soldiers not pursue the case? What do you think, Mr. Chen?"
"Then does he have any conditions?"
Yan Zhendong was delighted when he saw it and hurriedly told Wu Dong's conditions.
"You really dare to speak, okay, okay, just reply to him directly, I agree!"
The Boxer issue is, after all, a troublesome matter. It should be dealt with as soon as possible. As for the other matters, we can wait until later.
Yan Zhendong did not expect Mr. Chen to be so easy to talk to. After confirming it again, he happily ran to Wu Dong's temporary residence to inform him.
Without saying a word, Wu Dong directly greeted Qing Zhuang, a boxer he was familiar with, and invited a group of boxers with some reputation and prestige to come over for a drink.
Yan Zhendong was worried about an accident, so he acted as a companion.
When the invited boxers arrived, Wu Dong started eating without any nonsense. It was not until the wine was full that he spoke slowly: "Brothers, can you tell me why you responded to Brother Li's call and became a boxer?"
"Of course I won't be bullied by foreigners!"
"But as far as I know, before the foreigners have reached out, you brothers have been greatly oppressed by the local gentry!"
"What can we do? The world is like this!"
"Then do you think Senior Brother Li did a good job?"
"Mr. Wu, what do you mean?"
"What I mean is, as your leader, has Senior Brother Li helped you and made your and your family's lives better?"
"How is it possible? It's good to be able to guarantee your current living standard, but you still want to live a better life. Are you kidding me?"
After drinking, a group of young men who were somewhat famous among the boxers couldn't help but speak out their true thoughts.
As Wu Dong said, although the purpose of the Boxer organization is to resist the erosion and oppression of foreign forces.
But in fact, the area where Yan Zhendong's hometown is located has not yet felt the threat and oppression from foreigners.
As for Senior Brother Li, to be honest, he is a landowner in Lizhuang, a small landowner with a hundred acres of land in his family.
Compared with those landlords who exploited their tenants violently, Senior Brother Li was quite kind and his behavior was not that bad.
But it's not entirely clear how kind-hearted he was. From time to time, he would ask Boxer brothers to help with planting and harvesting, just to let the brothers who participated in the labor eat a few good meals.
Once these chatterboxes started, I couldn’t hold them back...
All things considered, Senior Brother Li seemed to have nothing else to do except lead them to practice boxing to strengthen their bodies, which made everyone feel a little confused for a while.
"Everyone, I want to sit in Senior Brother Li's position and become the founding Senior Brother here!"
Seeing that the heat was almost over, Wu Dong said straightforwardly: "If nothing else, if I can successfully open the forum to teach boxing, I will definitely not cause any disadvantage to the brothers!"
After a while of deception and the promise of benefits, a group of young boxers who were in a state of confusion were finally persuaded, so that they would not oppose Wu Dong as the opening senior brother.
As long as they don't object, it's victory!
Sure enough, three days later, Wu Dong held a boxing ceremony outside the city. He did not encounter any doubts or difficulties, and it went very smoothly.
With a good start, things will be much easier to handle later on.
As for Plum Blossom Boxing, Wu Dong had already learned the routines, and even the pile skills didn't take long to learn.
Speaking of which, he also felt very strange.
Plum Blossom Boxing can also be regarded as a pretty good internal boxing. At least it has the matching internal breathing method, and the secrets of the boxing method are quite good.
Plum blossom from the bitter cold!
Beneath the beautiful appearance, there is a deep coldness, and once practiced to a high level, it can be quite vicious.
It is quite strange that such a boxing technique is so popular among boxers all over the world, at least that's what Wu Dong feels.
In the cellar of Senior Brother Li's house, there is actually a boxing manual of Plum Blossom Boxing, which in his opinion is quite complete.
Unable to figure it out, Wu Dong was too lazy to think about it.
What Wu Dong needs to do now is to get the boxers to recognize him and quickly form a cohesion, otherwise problems may arise over time.
Fortunately, he has experience in this area.
He found Yan Zhendong and expressed his thoughts.
Yan Zhendong looked strange. After a while, he shook his head and said with a smile: "It's the same trick again. Aren't you afraid that the rich people in the county won't give you face?"
"Haha, hundreds of young people went to that station and asked him if he was afraid?"
Wu Dong sneered: "If we don't let the boxers see the benefits as soon as possible, the doubts in their eyes will not dissipate easily, and it will be difficult to say as time goes by!"
"Besides, that's not what the squires in the city said before. It's not even easy for them to do it?"
"Okay, I'll go tell them!"
Yan Zhendong said with a smile: "I'm just afraid that the supply of vegetables, meat and eggs in the city won't be able to meet the needs of so many Boxers!"
Yes, Wu Dong plans to play another trick of monopolizing the bargaining power of vegetables, vegetables, meat and eggs, but it has to be said that it is related to the vital interests of the people at the bottom, that is, the Boxer families, and they can best feel Wu Dong's methods and abilities.
Again, hundreds of boxers are a powerful force. If they are used well, they can easily accomplish something.
In the past, Senior Brother Li only regarded these boxers as capital to show off and as coolies to help with farming and harvesting. If he had not relied on the altar to create some sacred things to unite people's hearts, the young boxers would have disbanded long ago.
Without tangible interests as a bond, an organization can easily fall apart.
Yan Zhendong acted quickly and conveyed Wu Dong's request to the squires in the city, and soon received a reply: They agreed!
After all, the restaurants in the city supply vegetables, meat, and eggs to whomever they provide. As long as the price is fair and the goods are fine, what’s the point of giving them face?
Soon, Wu Dong informed the boxers of the good news, which immediately triggered a burst of cheers.
The ten confidants who followed me have long been familiar with this set of procedures. They personally took charge of the management, and it was easy to form rules.
Again, even though the vegetables, meat and eggs are inconspicuous, the quantity they can provide is large, and that’s a huge profit.
Wu Dong and his confidant only asked for hard-earned money for running errands, and the rest of the profits went to the Boxer family members, so naturally they easily won a lot of hearts...
