According to Liu Meng's original plan, before Yue Buqun and others came to Fuzhou, he quietly sneaked into the Lin family's old house in Xiangyang Lane and secretly took away the cassock with the evil sword manual written on it.
It was all done without anyone noticing.
Unexpectedly, things changed. The Qingcheng faction actually noticed the Lin family's old house in advance and sent Hou Renying, one of the Four Best Shows in Qingcheng, to take charge. If they hadn't accidentally met Fang Fengnan, they would have obtained the title and demolished the house.
In the courtyard, the evil-repelling sword manual is theirs!
He had no choice but to kill him, but he had no choice but to hide his whereabouts, but forgot that Fang Fengnan was in the open. As a result, the Five Poison Sect's Blue Phoenix, a subordinate of the Sun and Moon God Sect, chased him. However, he had already obtained the evil-fighting sword manual, and he
If you are exposed, you will be exposed. If anyone is blind and wants to take advantage of you, just kill them directly.
After thinking about this matter, Liu Meng could not even think of killing Lan Fenghuang. He immediately smiled and said: "The reason why I pretended to be the Sun Moon God Sect is because I don't want to show up. Besides, killing harm for the people and eradicating bullies is the most important thing in the world.
It’s not a bad thing if it’s a good deed that brings great honor to you.”
Blue Phoenix flashed his big round eyes, as if he didn't expect the other party's reason to be so simple. But after careful investigation, he found out that the Qinglong Gang did all kinds of evil, and it really didn't do any harm to the reputation of the cult. So he said softly: "Thank you, Mr. Yiyi.
You have good intentions, but the theocratic religion has always disdained reputation and doesn’t care what others say.”
After a pause, Lan Fenghuang said coquettishly: "Now that the matter is clear, can you tell me your name, sir, so that I can go back and make an appointment." His painted eyes looked straight at Liu Meng, his tone was coquettish, and he had a little concentration.
Poor people are afraid that they will already be mentally disturbed.
Liu Meng smiled, turning a blind eye to her delicate manner, and said: "Hengshan faction Liu Meng. Thank you Miss Lan for your understanding. We will meet again later." After saying that, the ferry had docked, and Liu Meng hugged Lan Fenghuang.
Holding his fists, he took Fang Fengnan and his wife and drove away on horseback.
After crossing the Ganjiang River, it was much faster to take Yanling up to the main road. Ten days later, the group returned to Hengshan City.
It took exactly one and a half months to go back and forth. At this time, the weather was approaching early autumn and it was already getting cold in the morning and evening.
He went straight into the house outside the city. The concierge Lao Wu hurriedly came to help him unload the truck. He asked the housekeeper Huang Ping'an to clean out two houses, and then bought some daily necessities to settle Fang Fengnan and his wife. Liu Meng then went to take a bath and change clothes, and washed himself.
Travel dust.
"Master!" With a crisp cry, Qu Feiyan rushed over, hugged Liu Meng's arm tightly, and said happily: "Master, you are back!" The circles under his eyes turned a little red.
The little girl's family members are all dead, and her only support now is her master. She hasn't seen her for a month and a half, so naturally she misses her dearly.
Liu Meng smiled and patted Qu Feiyan's head, and said: "I brought you some fun things, they are all novelties from southern Fujian." Before Qu Feiyan cheered, he added: "But you have to first
Practice your swordsmanship and show it to Master. If you are lazy, you will have nothing."
Holding the long sword tightly, Qu Feiyan first took the stance of Nanyue Zhitian. Then his delicate body rushed forward, and the long sword stabbed straight out with a white sword, but halfway, he raised it with his backhand. The tip of the sword broke through the air and emitted a sound.
Screaming loudly.
That’s right! Qu Feiyan’s martial arts talent is indeed extremely high. He has reached this level in just two months, which is almost comparable to his original advancement. But he only relied on the cheating of the auxiliary training system to excel in swordsmanship.
Climb higher and higher.
The other four young men who received instruction, Qi Ayi, Meng A'er, Lu Acan, and Guo Asi, also practiced diligently and made progress after taking the exam. Liu Meng was naturally happy and asked Chef Sun to work hard at night.
After serving a delicious meal, one was to reward Qu Feiyan and the four disciples for their hard work, and the other was to introduce Fang Fengnan to everyone, because next, Liu Meng had another wonderful idea.
Including the butler Huang Ping'an, Xiao Zao in the kitchen is only responsible for meals for seven people every day. Chef Sun is very idle all day long. Apart from playing chess and drinking with the butler, he is also training his two apprentices in different ways. Now again
Coupled with the fact that a Fujian chef like Fang Fengnan is extremely skilled in cooking, it is indeed a bit wasteful.
Turning left when going out, there was a deserted slope not far from the road into the city. There were wild woods on the left and right, and there was a square pond below. Liu Meng went to measure it personally and felt that it suited his idea quite well. He asked the housekeeper Huang Ping'an to take it.
After receiving the famous invitation from Hengshan, he went to see the magistrate of Hengshan County and bought this wasteland at a high price.
Then he asked Fang Qianju, the steward of the sect, to come forward and hired a group of house builders from Changsha to build a garden on the barren slope. A large flower hall can hold more than ten banquets at the same time, which is used for disciple gatherings during the sect's annual festivals.
.Others include only a pavilion facing the pond, a small building with wind, a unique pavilion, and a three-story attic mixed with brick and wood.
All these constructions were sketched by Liu Meng himself and then handed over to the craftsmen for construction. Although the project was not huge, due to the exquisite materials required, the estimated cost was more than 8,000 taels of silver.
Of course, Liu Meng didn't care about the amount of money, so he gave Fang Qianju the 5,000 taels of silver notes extorted from Mingui Tower in Fuzhou with a smart move, and asked him to arrange for capable disciples to supervise the construction of the garden.
Then he went to Panxia's tavern near the west gate in the city of Hengshan. He invested two thousand taels of silver into the interior renovation. The tables and chairs were all replaced with expensive furniture, and the tableware such as bowls, chopsticks, cups, and saucers were also extremely luxurious. However, in the end, it was only open to the public.
Two lounges are open for business.
The name of the tavern is simply "Tavern". It specializes in high-end boutiques. It can open up to four tables of banquets every day. Each table of banquets has a minimum consumption of ten taels of silver, with no upper limit. The two chefs, Sun Yimiao and Shi Fengnan, take turns taking charge.
, ingredients, etc. are all transported back from Xiangtan, Changsha and other places by special personnel and fast horses.
Except for Liu Zhengfeng's lineage and several disciples of Lu Lianrong, the other disciples of the Hengshan sect are relatively poor and live in a very tight life.
At the sect meeting on Mid-Autumn Night, Liu Meng stated that he would use 50% of the tavern's net profits from now on, 30% of which would supplement the lives of Hengshan disciples, and 20% would be used to maintain the sect's daily expenses.
The development of a sect is of course inseparable from the support of money. And as the disciples grow older, it is necessary to find a place for those who are alone to spend their old age?
Therefore, Liu Meng took the initiative to ask Ying to take over all the Hengshan Sect's industries, which originally had only two Taoist temples and one incense and candle shop. He also made it clear for the first time that all the escort agencies, goods stores, martial arts schools, pharmacies, etc. that used the name of the Hengshan Sect in the surrounding prefectures would be handed over.
Reliable and smart disciples carry out investigation and rectification.
After one month, merchants who still want to use the name of the Hengshan Sect must obtain approval from the person in charge of the Hengshan Sect, and then pay a certain monthly protection fee based on the size of the Hengshan Sect. What difficulties will these obedient merchants encounter in the future?
, will be solved by the Hengshan Sect. As for those who continue to borrow their names without permission, I'm sorry, the long swords of the Hengshan Sect disciples are not for fun!
This point proposed by Liu Meng has been implemented by some powerful sects and gangs for a long time. However, the Hengshan sect has always prided itself on being an upright sect and is not good at competing with the people for profit. In addition, the management ability of the leader Mo is really not good.
This has led to today's tight situation.
All the disciples have already experienced enough hardships, and they are all happy and excited when they hear it. Lu Lianrong, the golden-eyed eagle, has great ambitions, and of course he agrees with the expansion of the sect's power. And the leader, Mr. Mo Da, has personally said that he will delegate power to
Liu Meng, even though he felt something was wrong, could only nod in agreement.
Investigating and rectifying businesses that borrow the name of the Hengshan School is simple to say, but not so easy to do.
The Hengshan Sect itself already has great prestige, and the Five Mountains Sword Sect has joined forces to create a huge momentum. Which family that travels around the world doesn't want to make friends? Besides, the leader Mr. Mo Da, Golden Eyed Eagle Lu Lianrong and the deceased Liu Zhengfeng Liu Sanye
, behaves in an extremely low-key manner. If he doesn’t celebrate his birthday, doesn’t marry a wife, and doesn’t marry a daughter, there are many people who want to make friends, but where can they find the way?
Nowadays, some people who use the banner of Hengshan Sect are more or less closely related to Hengshan Sect. If they are to be stopped by force, it will inevitably damage the loyalty of the disciples of the sect.
Mi Weiyi, the second apprentice of the late elder Liu Zhengfeng, died in the service of his master. Can the tea shop opened by his brother-in-law report the name of the Hengshan sect when the government collects taxes? Is it possible?
The father-in-law of Fang Qianju, the sect manager, runs the largest medicine shop in Hengyang. He claims that the Hengshan sect exclusively supplies medicinal materials with guaranteed quality and no falsehoods. Is this an exaggeration?
.........There are others, who are related to the disciples of the Hengshan Sect, and they use various tricks and banners.
Even Grandma Sun, who often sells tofu pudding at the gate of Nanyue Palace, asked someone to sew a banner saying "Delicious tofu pudding. A gift from Master Mo" and hung it at the door of the shed. But the real situation is that Mo Da has been selling tofu pudding for more than ten years.
I just had a bowl of it at Granny Sun's stall before.
Faced with this situation, what can you do? Let the disciples destroy the tofu stall, or order Fang Qianju to capture his father-in-law immediately? Or ignore the resentment of Liu Zhengfeng's followers and force Mi Wei's righteous brother to change his banner.
?
In the eyes of the slightly shrewd disciples of Hengshan Sect, these problems are as difficult as climbing to the sky, and they are still messy if they can't sort them out. Even Lu Lianrong, the golden-eyed eagle, and his family are secretly enjoying themselves, waiting to see the good show of this young elder.
Performed.
However, how could Liu Meng be as ignorant as them? Since he proposed this plan, he was naturally well prepared mentally.
First of all, it was ordered that all the 14th and 15th generation disciples in Hengshan City, except for those who are out on business or injured, must go to the courtyard outside the west city where they live every day to light the knot. Anyone who is late will be warned.
Those who do it twice will be punished with ten lashes, and those who do it the third time will be punished with ten sticks.
If he fails once, he will be punished with twenty lashes; if he fails twice, he will be severely punished with twenty sticks; if he fails three times, his legs will be broken; if he fails four times, he will be punished by having his martial arts skills revoked and expelled, no matter who intercedes.
Out the wall!
Mr. Mo Da was usually extremely strict with his disciples, so no one dared to test Liu Meng's order easily.
Every morning, Cheng Qingshan, the 14th generation disciple of the Hengshan sect and the first disciple of Mr. Mo Da, performs the tapping. Zhang Baifan, the second disciple, follows behind with a whip and a tigerish face. Such power is undoubtedly a message to all the disciples.
