"So gangs are actually just little tricks?" Bai Lang thought to himself after listening to these words. In teahouses, restaurants, and even theaters, the reputation and power of gangs are very great, but in fact it is just because of these
It's just these characters that ordinary people come into contact with most. Bai Lang naturally met many people from gangs - when the imperial power was not in the countryside, the order at the bottom was basically that various gangs carried out operations under the control of the six gates.
Take control.
Almost all the people who can survive on this edge are small gangs, small gangs that are attached to the big gangs. The nicknames of these gang members who watch the scene are quite powerful. Fortunately, in most cases, these gang members are very harmful to ordinary people, especially those who come here.
Customers who spend money to eat, drink and listen to books have no influence - collecting protection money will not be charged to these people, otherwise they will be beaten to death by the big gangs above if they cross the line.
Bailang doesn't need to pay attention to the rules of the market. Anyway, what he needs now is to practice martial arts and collect information - modern people's minds tell him that most of the information is actually public. The key is that you have to know how to collect it. In this world
The media's communication capabilities are quite poor. There are no newspapers or radios, and all rely on word of mouth. Kong Huai, who is "ahead of his time in gathering news," can only hear the nonsense of writers.
Then go to the bookstore to see if there are any martial arts secret books for sale? Bailang knows one thing, that is, the bookstores are all in the city or close to the city, and those places are where big gangs are entrenched. "Have you been assassinated in the past?
"Bai Lang didn't intend to disguise himself. In fact, he doesn't have the ability. However, there is a way to find out in advance the areas where Liufenbantang and the gangs attached to Liufenbantang are active, and then go to the territory controlled by Jinfeng Xiaoyulou.
look.
This was relatively simple, and it didn't take long for Bailang to figure it out. However, the bookstore disappointed him because there really weren't any decent martial arts secrets for sale, and the popular ones were of no use to him. Really advanced martial arts is the style of martial arts.
I'm afraid there are no martial arts schools in the prosperous Jicheng City. These martial arts schools are the same as the Changle Gang, that is, they teach some introductory martial arts. It is already very good if they can reach the martial arts close to the Great Zhoutian. As for the martial arts after achieving innate skills
, that is not the case.
On this day, when Bailang was practicing martial arts in the mountain temple, someone came to the door. The person who came was quite polite. Even though the two temple doors in the front half of the mountain temple had fallen apart, he still knocked on the door.
, "Mr. Bai, are you here?" Bai Lang is currently practicing martial arts in the abandoned garden behind the mountain temple - it is just fifty or sixty square meters of flat land, and there is a well. If there were not mountain springs flowing to the left and right, this well would have been
There can't be water - although Bai Lang thinks it is superfluous to dig a well when there is flowing water, but who made this world have Feng Shui?
He heard the sound - he had already sensed it. Bailang noticed the man when he was two-thirds of the way up the mountain. When Bailang walked out, he saw a man wearing official robes, with two long attendants behind him.
, is also wearing an official robe. The official robe and hat look like a high-ranking police officer, but does the police officer have patches on his chest and back? The one in front of me has one, which means he is a high-ranking police officer, and the hat is still on the ears.
There are special feathers inserted, the two long tails are of the same style and color, and the one who speaks is of a completely different style and color.
Bai Lang's upper body was naked, but he only wore a pair of mid-length trousers on his lower body. His feet were bare, and his whole body was still covered with sweat from practicing. There was still a little bit of fat on his body... so his abdominal muscles were not very obvious, but they were.
What a big man. Especially the life in the mountains has made this guy grow a lot of beard. The length is probably an inch, and with the short hair and raised eyebrows, he really has a hairy head and a big head...
His long hair was suddenly shaved the last time Yuyu took him to wear it... Now Bailang is too lazy to keep it, and thinks that short hair is quite refreshing, but he doesn't know that this kind of dress makes him look more and more...
He was fierce. "He is indeed a good man, brave and fierce, and he really looks good for an official! What about Mr. Bai, do you want to be an official in the court?" The man also has an ancient appearance, but he is not tall, but his momentum is
Absolutely, I said this directly to Bai Lang.
"Be an official?" Bailang asked, asking these people to sit down at the same time - the front half of the poor mountain temple has not been renovated, Bailang only blew the dust away, and the tables and chairs were still broken.
He just moved a few big rocks and flattened them to use as stools. The man sat down without any concern at all and said, "I, King Garuda, respectfully serve as the fifth-rank guard of the Great Yanzheng... Oh, Bai
Sir, people generally call us Liumen, but in fact our official name is Weiwei."
When he said this, Wang Dao looked a little frustrated, but Bai Lang thought he was probably pretending. "Wang Weiwei came to me to be an official, but he also wanted to be this kind of guard? This guard of Dayan Kingdom
Is it possible that the position of lieutenant is under the imperial examination system? If someone recommends an imperial examination, you can take it?" Bai Lang was not in a hurry to agree or refuse, and asked curiously first.
Wang Dao was not in a hurry at all and answered Bai Lang's question calmly, "No, the position of this guard is not hidden from Mr. Bai. The imperial examination is one of the recruitment methods, but it can also be regarded as a legitimate background. This guard has the highest status."
If you reach the third rank, you can be regarded as a high-ranking official in our country..." Bai Lang also knew that the first and second rank officials in the imperial court are either empty titles or prime ministers. If they are the third rank, they are already among the top six bureaucrats in the court.
.
Bai Lang couldn't figure out the official system of Dayan. It seemed to be a combination of Song and Ming Dynasties. Anyway, it was quite complicated. However, the third rank had real power and was definitely among the top six.
"Mr. Bai is an innate master with a clean family background. He is exactly the kind of talent the imperial court needs. Please consider Mr. Bai's common people and join the imperial court. He will learn literary and martial arts and sell them to the emperor's family." Wang Dao winked and said, "That's the investigation above.
In the recruitment scene, the following is serious - Mr. Bai, joining the imperial court has great benefits!" The man began to talk about the benefits in detail, "First of all, it is money. This is not a big problem. Let's start with it.
Not to mention. Then there are various secret medicine materials used for cultivation. These are not only rationed by the court, but can also be exchanged and purchased..."
Bai Lang listened with a smile on his face, "Of course there are also secret martial arts and magical weapons collected in the imperial arsenal. These can all be learned and exchanged - of course, the ugly words are ahead, and this also requires Mr. Bai to work hard to complete the task.
The imperial court is full of masters, and the innate masters can teach martial arts, which is also a great benefit. And..." Wang Dao showed a smile, "I just want to do something of my own, but the imperial court is not well-informed.
What? The most well-informed place in the world is the imperial court of each country?"
