Shennongmen is in the process of building soldiers and horses, and Baicaomen is also stepping up its training of disciples.
Especially when Lao Zhang's incident came out, both parties were basically brought to the edge of overturning the table.
Now everyone can see that Shennongmen and Baicaomen will eventually have a battle.
After these years of malicious low-price competition, the originally wealthy Shennongmen gradually lost to Baicaomen and was slowly squeezed out of the market. Except for a small number of high-end supplies, the sales of other elixirs were extremely bleak.
Shennongmen initially thought that its foundation was strong, so it started a price war with Baicaomen. In the end, the price war broke Shennongmen's muscles and bones.
Compared with Shennongmen, which takes the high-end route, Baicaomen is quite grassroots, but it is stronger than grassroots, with low life and easy life.
In the low-price dumping war, although Shennongmen had the advantage of having a strong foundation, due to its large business and large expenses, various hard costs could not be reduced. In the past few years, all the gold and silver were emptied.
It is said that destroying a person's wealth is like killing his parents. The price war has now reached the point where both sides are fighting with red eyes. If you want to win, you must think of some off-market tricks.
Some of the previous methods were still within the scope of commercial warfare, but when tactics like murder and framing were used, everyone knew that Shennongmen could not hold on.
Gong Guangjie did not expect to defeat the Shennongmen solely by relying on business wars. He knew in his heart that it was just like gambling. Not only did he have to win on the cards, but he also had to watch out for the red-eyed losers to jump over the wall.
The government has no hope in this matter.
First of all, the government does not look after the homes and homes of ordinary people;
Secondly, the government's management of private fighting other than banditry is very loose.
In fact, civil strife has often occurred in all dynasties.
Just talking about grain farmers, hundreds of people often organize fights between neighboring villages and neighboring villages for reasons such as grabbing water, and dozens of people are often killed or injured.
Before Huang Xiaoshi's time travel, this kind of large-scale armed fighting would have been a big deal that would have caused the sky to fall. But in this era, it's really not that big news.
From the perspective of the government, which adheres to the principle of "people do not promote, officials do not investigate", the fighting is like this. The bites between gangs are more like vicious dogs biting each other, and it will make your eyes dirty to look at it more.
That's why there are so many major martial arts events, such as the six major sects besieging Guangmingding, the six major sects besieging Heimuya, the six major sects besieging Perak Hall, etc.
For so many years, the Baicao Sect has been barely known as the Jianghu Sect, but it has never had a real armed force.
In the past, the only way to fight with those gangsters was to swarm in and fight with sticks. However, facing Shennongmen whose thugs are highly organized and professional, Baicaomen has suffered a lot in these years of conflicts.
That is to say, after Huang Xiaoshi learned Kung Fu, he managed to suppress the Shennongmen in the past two years.
Now it's time to reveal the cards. In order to prevent Shennongmen from overturning the table, Baicaomen urgently needs to improve its combat effectiveness.
Yes, Huang Xiaoshi is very good at fighting, but he is not a god. He can be invulnerable and can defeat ten thousand enemies with one person.
In front of a large number of organized and armed strong men, no matter Huang Xiaoshi or Gong Guangjie, they could only flee.
So fighting still depends on the number of people.
Huang Xiaoshi is now the instructor of Baicao Sect and is training the disciples.
In the courtyard of Baicao Gate, more than a dozen men in fine clothes were shirtless, holding steel knives in one hand and bamboo shields in the other. They were practicing the monotonous "one, two, three" command repeatedly.
Three moves.
Cut left, cut right, block.
"one."
"drink!"
"two."
"drink!"
"three."
"drink!"
After watching it for a long time, Gong Guangjie felt that this formation was good and the moves were solid, without any tricks that were either unsatisfactory or useless.
These are elite soldiers trained by Baicaomen.
Of course, there will definitely be more than just this group of people fighting. At that time, all the disciples and drug farmers will have to pick up their hoes and sticks to join in the fight.
These specially trained elite soldiers are used as key breakthroughs.
Gong Guangjie waved to Huang Xiaoshi and asked him to leave the disciple who was training and go to the backyard room. After Huang Xiaoshi closed the door, Gong Guangjie took out a rolled cloth from his arms and spread it on the table.
Huang Xiaoshi gathered around the table and took a look. It turned out to be a very rough picture with many annotations. If he guessed correctly, this was the top view of Shennong Gate.
In the past two years, Huang Xiaoshi has learned a lot from the old accountant, at least he has learned the traditional Chinese calligraphy. Now Huang Xiaoshi can write crookedly when he picks up the calligraphy brush.
In this era, if you can write your own name, you are illiterate, and if you can read and write letters, you are an educated person.
It is said that gangsters are not to be feared, only that they are educated.
Now Huang Xiaoshi is a quasi-gangster with culture, ideals, pursuits, and martial arts.
Having said so much, the key point is that there is not a word on this picture, it is filled with all kinds of circles, dots and crosses.
This is a map that only Gong Guangjie and the secret agent can understand. Everyone else who gets it is blind.
Gong Guangjie pointed at the small circle on the picture and said to Huang Xiaoshi: "Shennongmen is reducing its manpower. During this period, more than thirty people have been added one after another. I think Shennongmen will start to take action in the next few days.
."
"Just these few days?" It wasn't that Huang Xiaoshi didn't believe Gong Guangjie's judgment. He deliberately raised the question to see if Gong Guangjie would reveal his intelligence sources to him.
Gong Guangjie nodded to Huang Xiaoshi and said, "Yes, just in the past few days. The informant I planted in Shennongmen said that the weapons have been distributed to the hands. I guess the other party will take action if they wait for another silver reward."
Huang Xiaoshi nodded and said nothing.
Gong Guangjie smiled and patted Huang Xiaoshi on the shoulder and said: "Shitou, we have worked hard for so many years. As long as we survive this month, we will be successful. As long as we can pass this assessment, we will have a stable backer."
This is the second time Gong Guangjie mentioned the word "backer" in front of Huang Xiaoshi. It can be seen that Gong Guangjie is in a very good mood now.
"Backer?" Huang Xiaoshi asked tentatively.
"Haha, yes, great support!" Gong Guangjie changed his past depression and said with a happy smile: "From now on, no one can touch us. Don't you like to learn martial arts? You don't have to stay in this chicken coop anymore.
I'm here. I want to spend some money to pass you up. As long as an adult likes you, you will have profound martial arts knowledge."
Huang Xiaoshi looked at Gong Guangjie, nodded with a smile on his face, and said, "Boss, what is the origin of this backer?"
Gong Guangjie glanced at Huang Xiaoshi. He leaned his head towards Huang Xiaoshi's face and let out the stench from his mouth: "Anyway, it's a big deal. I'll scare you to death."
Huang Xiaoshi looked at Gong Guangjie's happy ugly face, and felt moved for the first time in so many years.
Gong Guangjie saved Huang Xiaoshi's life, taught him a set of internal skills, and even let him work around as his second-in-command, but Huang Xiaoshi was never allowed to call him master.
This is because Gong Guangjie is worried about missing Huang Xiaoshi's future.
Now that Gong Guangjie had finally found a golden avenue for Huang Xiaoshi, he felt extremely proud.
Seeing Gong Guangjie laughing heartily, Huang Xiaoshi smiled with a mixture of curiosity and anticipation on his face, but there was a chill in his heart.
Big backer?
Humph, I know what this is even if you don’t tell me.
This big backer is not a good thing. It is hard to tell the good and bad.
After Gong Guangjie put away the map and went out, Huang Xiaoshi looked at Gong Guangjie's retreating figure and said silently to himself: "Old farmer Gong, I, Huang Xiaoshi, must find a way to give you a good death."
…
Huang Xiaoshi's greatest hope for Gong Guangjie is to give him a good death. This is not a curse, nor is it a curse.
But Huang Xiaoshi knew that if this development continued, no matter which direction the final incident took, Gong Guangjie and Baicaomen would have an extremely tragic ending.
It is said that when people are in the arena, they cannot help themselves. Gong Guangjie and Baicaomen were just snowflakes caught in the unstoppable avalanche, and finally smashed into pieces on the rocks.
Of course, whether you want to save yourself or save others, a very important condition is to become stronger.
Thinking of this, Huang Xiaoshi felt a little desperate.
In this world, it is really difficult for people without power to live a better life.
It has been three years since I came here. Those who traveled through time have unified the empire and built several wonders in three years. They may have begun to prepare intensively to conquer the aliens.
As for me, I'm still playing in the mud here.
Before time travel, Huang Xiaoshi's life was smooth sailing. As a rich second-generation only child with a family fortune of ten digits, Huang Xiaoshi could win in this life just by lying down.
After traveling through time, God seems to be serving all the dishes that were not served before. In the past three years, Huang Xiaoshi has experienced all kinds of hardships in the world and has seen through the harshness of the world.
However, so what, it’s not like you have to go to the knife for a few pennies here.
This is a quagmire from which no one can clean themselves. If you don't eat people, someone will eat you.
Debt collection forced Lao Zhang to die, and Huang Xiaoshi felt very uncomfortable, but he knew that even if he already knew the outcome, he could not save Lao Zhang.
The day Lao Zhang chose to confront Baicaomen, his only end was death.
Either he was killed by the Shennong Sect or the Baicao Sect. In short, he could not escape death.
If you want to get rid of all this, you must first find a way to climb out of this big mud pit.
Shennongmen must be destroyed.
Only by destroying the Shennongmen can Gong Guangjie cling to that big backer. Only when he clings to that big backer can he climb up the vine of Gong Guangjie.
Huang Xiaoshi knew that Gong Guangjie was able to reveal his great supporter's affairs to him because of his extreme trust in him.
Because if even the slightest bit of news about this great backer leaks out, Baicao Sect may face the disaster of annihilation.
However, Gong Guangjie is right. Being favored by the backer is indeed a way out from the current point of view, although it is an evil way.
For a guy like me who comes from a humble background and whose identity is unknown, he probably only has this kind of "big backer" to rely on.
However, my current strength is still too low.
Huang Xiaoshi is now level 14. Through years of observation and analysis, Huang Xiaoshi has a relatively good understanding of the world's level system.
In this world, there will be a qualitative leap in the character's level every 10 levels, which is commonly used in martial arts.
Level 10, the first glimpse of the door.
Level 20, emerging.
Level 30, sharpened.
Level 40, first-class master.
Level 50, reaching the pinnacle.
At level 60, enter Taoism through martial arts.
This level 60 entry into Taoism through martial arts was not what Huang Xiaoshi said himself.
There are rumors in the world that if you practice kung fu to the extreme, you can enter the Tao through martial arts. The legendary hero Xiao Xiami is at this level. He disappeared after going to the temple. In fact, he went to the fairy world through the gate of the temple.
Of course, only Huang Xiaoshi knew that this rumor was pure bullshit. Xiao Xiami was a first-generation time traveler. After clearing the game, he traveled back through the gate of the temple.
The door to travel, this is Huang Xiaoshi's ultimate goal.
However, in order to open the door to the church, you must first have the church key.
Because Xiao Xiami's big mouth speaks without restraint, people in this world already know about the temple and they also know that there is a key to the temple.
After Xiao Xiami left, there was a battle between good and evil for the key to the temple, that is, the six major factions besieged the Perak Hall.
No matter which side you look at, that war was really chaotic, and the aftermath continues to this day, and is about to stir things up again.
Of course, Huang Xiaoshi definitely wanted to take advantage of the storm to be a troublemaker for a while.
However, if you want to stir up trouble, you need to be strong enough.
If you want to be strong enough, you need to cultivate higher-level internal skills.
Here, the monopoly of the gate valve is clearly demonstrated.
As long as you obtain the introductory internal skills and mental methods of any of the six current sects, and practice diligently, you can reach level 20 or above. The specific level depends on each person's qualifications.
As long as you obtain the secret internal skills and mental methods of any of the six current sects and practice diligently, you can reach level 40 or above. The specific level depends on each person's qualifications.
As long as you acquire any top-notch internal skills and practice diligently, you can reach level 50 or above. The specific level depends on each person's qualifications, and you can reach the full level when you reach the extreme.
However, it took a lot of effort for me to have an eighteenth-level internal skill and mental technique, and when I reached the full level, I was only at level 13.
What is this?
In this world, because practicing Kung Fu not only makes you stand out, but also allows you to gradually evolve from a human to a "super" person, people all over the world are filled with an unimaginable enthusiasm for practicing Kung Fu.
Under such circumstances, it is even more difficult to obtain inner strength and mental skills.
With Huang Xiaoshi's current strength, what's the use of joining a big backer, other than being cannon fodder.
However, how can we obtain better internal strength?
Huang Xiaoshi thought hard.
After a long time, Huang Xiaoshi opened his eyes.
Yes, only if you go to Luoyang, you may have the opportunity to travel around in Luoyang.
Of course, you can’t just go to Luoyang, you have to have money.
Although money cannot buy martial arts, you can make friends only if you have money.
Those people in the martial arts world are all big spenders. If they don't have enough financial resources, how can they be qualified to make friends with them?
When it comes to money, you must strengthen Baicaomen. Baicaomen is your real backer.
If you want to strengthen the Baicao Gate, you must unify Bashu. If you want to unify Bashu, you must kill the Shennong Gate.
