The underground black market on the second floor is actually an auction situation.
The items in this underground auction have unknown origins, so they may be true or false. The organizer is not responsible at all and only relies on personal vision.
There was already a group of people sitting on the chairs under the stage waiting.
Judging from their attire, it was obvious that they were all martial arts people.
Li Wenchan had already seen the martial arts in the south of the Yangtze River, mainly represented by Lu Chunsheng, Lin Chaonan and Master Huang.
As for the factions and forces in Jiangbei, he still doesn't know yet.
Seeing him observing, Qian Guangjun next to him understood it and quickly introduced: "Mr. Li, the martial arts people here in Jiangbei are mainly represented by Longhumen. Within Longhumen, I heard that there is an old master sitting in charge.
So it’s very strong.”
One or two hundred years ago, Longhumen was also a large sect with numerous masters and strong men. Its status in the martial arts world was almost second only to the two major sects of Buddhism and Taoism.
But then science and technology developed rapidly, and things like martial arts gradually declined.
Even the Shaolin of Buddhism and the Wudang of Taoism are declining, let alone the Dragon and Tiger Sect.
But a skinny camel is bigger than a horse.
Longhumen occupies this area of Jiangbei, and is the leader of the martial arts community here. Other small sects and sects all respect him.
"You don't seem to have much contact with the martial arts community in Jiangbei?"
Li Wenchan asked.
Although Qian Guangjun and Yuan Jiuling are all Jiangbei bosses who are in charge of one side, the people in their circle are all rich and powerful bosses.
On the Jiangnan side, people like Lin Chaonan and Master Huang still interacted with those rich people.
Logically speaking, people in the martial arts would be the guests of these wealthy people.
"It's like this. Here in Jiangbei, the martial arts circle and us are almost on a par with each other."
Yuan Jiuling knew the inside story and explained, "The main reason is the old grandmaster of Longhumen. He is relatively stubborn and conservative. He believes that martial arts is martial arts, and martial arts must remain pure and should not have anything to do with the secular world."
"In the eyes of the old master, we are just businessmen who smell like copper. He treats us with a look down on us. And other small sects do not dare to offend the old master, so
Usually they won’t have anything to do with us.”
"Even the two internal energy masters I invited were brought from other places."
"It's impossible to find martial arts masters as bodyguards here in Jiangbei. No matter how much money you pay, it will be useless."
"Oh? The Dragon Tiger Sect is so lenient? Even if there is an old master sitting in charge, aren't you afraid of causing public anger and being attacked by a group of people?" Li Wenchan asked calmly.
People in the modern martial arts world also have to eat and make money. For example, Master Huang has to make money by setting up formations for others.
If those small sects want to survive, they have to find ways to make money. To make money, they have to have relationships with the rich and powerful people in Jiangbei.
But Longhumen blocks this road, how can those small sects be convinced?
"Mr. Li doesn't know something. The reason why Longhumen has such great dominance in Jiangbei is not only because there are old masters in the sect, but more importantly, Longhumen has an ancient elixir that relies on that elixir."
, they have refined a kind of Dragon Tiger Pill. After taking this pill, it is of great benefit to warriors. It is said that it can increase the strength of warriors!"
Yuan Jiuling explained, "Other small sects, if they want this kind of Dragon Tiger Pill, they have to listen to the Longhu Sect."
"I see."
Li Wenchan suddenly realized.
In this modern era, elixirs have almost been lost. Where can you find any elixirs on the market? Even if they are available, they are basically scammers.
His Peiyuan Pill was popular in Jiangnan, which shows the scarcity of pills.
This Longhumen can make a lot of money by relying on ancient prescriptions like Longhu Dan.
Moreover, this elixir can actually increase strength. This alone is enough to make warriors flock to it.
It takes a long time for any warrior to develop external strength, but with the Dragon Tiger Pill, the time can be greatly reduced. Which warrior can refuse?
"Yuan Jiuling, Qian Guangjun, why are you even here? I thought the standards of this underground black market were so high, but it doesn't seem to be high-end at all."
Just as a group of people came in, someone noticed them and couldn't help but sneered and showed disdain.
The man who spoke had a body as majestic as a tower, his arms were thicker than the legs of ordinary people, his eyebrows were very thick and long, and his tiger eyes contained terrifying power.
He sat there like a fierce tiger, and even a casual glance made people feel uncomfortable.
"Why, you guys can come to Longhumen, but we can't. Are you the one who opened this place?"
Yuan Jiuling, the big boss, is also a figure who has dominated Jiangbei for decades. His momentum is not weak at all. He said coldly, "This underground black market, since it is an auction, isn't it just to see who has the most money? We don't have anything else.
But there’s plenty of money!”
"Mr. Li, this person is the current head of Longhu Clan, Yue Baichuan, and the old grandmaster has retired behind the scenes and rarely takes care of things now."
Qian Guangjun explained quietly from the side.
This group of people does not have a harmonious relationship with Jiangbei Wulin.
However, given their status, there is no need to be afraid of these martial arts people.
People in the martial arts world are powerful, but no matter how powerful they are, can they be more powerful than guns? They have many desperadoes under their command and have hidden many guns.
In the entire Jiangbei, the only one who is not afraid of guns is the old master of Longhumen.
As for the others, one by one, if they really dare to fight with them, they will dare to let their subordinates take out guns.
"this person……"
At this time, Li Wenchan looked at Yue Baichuan and felt a subtle sense of familiarity in him.
But this was his first time meeting Yue Baichuan.
So where does this sense of familiarity come from?
Just when Li Wenchan was looking at him, Yue Baichuan's eyes also fell on him. As soon as he came in, he walked in front of many Jiangbei bosses and a group of rich people, so he naturally attracted much attention.
"Yuan Jiuling, who is this kid? Why are you all following him like shit?"
Yue Baichuan said in surprise.
Li Wenchan is so young, but these Jiangbei bosses are all standing behind him obediently, like stars holding the moon. Such a gesture is impossible even for him.
"Yue Baichuan, I advise you to show some respect to Mr. Li!"
Yuan Jiuling opened his eyes and said with overwhelming momentum, "Mr. Li is a big shot from the south of the Yangtze River."
"Big shot? Just him? As far as I know, there seems to be only one Meng Jingxing who is so young and has a high status in Jiangnan. When did a boy named Li appear? This boy is so young. Has his hair grown?
