Chapter four hundred and forty seventh finding fault
It was a bright and cloudless spring day, and the warm sunshine was very comfortable on my body. It was a good day to go out for an outing.
A large house in the south of Gusu City was bustling with life. A group of men with extraordinary aura surrounded the house with its open door, shouting and shouting enthusiastically from time to time.
The owners of the house were also a group of wealthy people in the world. They were all dressed in fine clothes and had happy faces. From time to time, they bowed their hands to the fellow people who gathered at the door and said some polite words that everyone liked to hear.
One after another, well-known southern martial arts masters and representatives of well-known southern gangs arrived, bringing the already lively atmosphere to a new high.
The gangsters gathered at the door of the house are all a group of people who hang out at the bottom of the gangs and lakes. They are not qualified to enter and enjoy the treatment of guests. They can only gather around the door and exclaim and discuss from time to time.
They also did not expect that the newly established branch of the Shuilong Gang in Gusu Liqi would attract so many famous players from the south to celebrate.
The name of each arriving southern martial arts master was read out loud, which caused a burst of exclamation from the onlookers, and the atmosphere at the scene became more and more intense.
"The Shuilong Gang is the Shuilong Gang. It's really amazing. However, when a new church is established, so many southern martial arts heroes come to congratulate you!"
"Who says it isn't? It is indeed a famous gang in the south. It is very powerful!"
"Even the old rival Jukun Gang has come, and the leader of the group has come to celebrate. It's very surprising!"
"..."
The heroes gathered at the entrance of the house were shocked by the lively and majestic scene in front of them, and were amazed by the momentum of the Shuilong Gang, the owner of the house.
There is no way not to be surprised. You must know that in a short period of time, not only the famous lone masters of the southern martial arts came here, but also several large gangs with many families and powerful people sent important representatives.
For the men who have sneaked into the bottom of the world, such a scene is enough to shock their hearts and make their eyes red with envy and jealousy.
Isn't it just to seek fame and fortune by wandering around the world?
With fame comes profit, and the current Shuilong Gang is a good example of this.
The establishment of a new branch hall was so grand. This was a rare event in the southern martial arts world. In terms of the status and status of the guests who came to celebrate, there had never been such a lively scene in the past ten years.
Such a lively scene, and the appearance of a martial arts master with a well-known reputation in the southern martial arts world, made the heroes who were hanging around the bottom of the martial arts circles excited and excited. They wanted to go into the house to watch the excitement, and at the same time, they also admired the master's demeanor.
Looking around, the gangsters surrounding the door of the house were all low-class people, not even one of them had any reputation in the gangs and lakes.
In the eyes of Lao Jianghu, this situation is actually quite abnormal.
In such a lively arena scene, even those who are not famous or strong but have rich experience in the arena and have good connections will join in the fun.
Not to mention that you will definitely win the favor of the Shuilong Gang and sit down in the main hall. If you just give a bunch of rookies a chance to gain experience, or take your own children to broaden their horizons, you won't miss it easily.
The fact is that none of those veterans with some status in the world and rich experience in the world showed up at the door of the bustling house.
If there are veterans of the Southern Wulin, you will definitely find that in a restaurant a hundred meters away, there are many veterans of the Southern Wulin who have low status but are rich in experience.
I saw these old people sitting around at several tables, occupying the entire second floor of the restaurant.
Through the unobstructed railings, one can clearly see the scene of the Shuilong Gang's newly established base a hundred meters away.
"The Shuilong Gang is so powerful. People who don't know it would think they are the only ones in the southern martial arts world!"
An old man who was not very powerful but had a lot of experience in the world said disdainfully: "The bigger the noise, the less good the results will be!"
"Hehe, there's nothing we can do about it!"
Another veteran Jianghu said with a smile: "The Shuilong Gang's main business is selling private salt. Wu Houling is a big collector of private salt. He handles a lot of water every month. It's not safe if he doesn't establish a court here!"
It's funny to say that the official salt of the imperial court was not only expensive, but also of unsatisfactory quality. Except for the high-quality salt supplied to the bureaucratic class, the quality of the rest of the official salt was even inferior to that of private salt, and the common people simply could not afford it.
In addition, the North-South confrontation for many years and frequent wars have led to the proliferation of private salt. The people at the bottom can only afford low-priced private salt, making the private salt business extremely profitable.
Wuhou is one of the most prosperous places in the south. The people live a prosperous and happy life, and consume a huge amount of private salt every day. The Shuilong Gang, which specializes in private salt business, is a big customer and cannot afford to neglect it.
It's not that Lei Hu doesn't know how to make sea salt, it's just that the prosperity and wealth of the territory are quite eye-catching. If he can continue to provide high-quality sea salt, it will be impossible to think about peace by then.
This made it cheaper for several major private salt selling forces in the south. Their private salt sales in Wuhou Ling were huge, and Wuhou Ling gradually became the most important sales channel.
In order to allow the people to eat cheap salt, Lei Hu did not interfere with the sale of private salt and allowed the proliferation of private salt in the territory, benefiting both the private salt dealers and the people.
It's just that the interests are so exciting. The Shuilong Gang obviously wants to monopolize or suppress most of the private salt profits of the Wu Marquis, so they can't wait to jump out and set up a banner in Gusu City. These old guys who have been around for a long time, as long as they have the inside knowledge,
Enough sources can guess.
"Hey, it doesn't matter if the Shuilong Gang moves quickly. I haven't heard of them reaching an agreement with the Gusu government. I'm afraid they will suffer a loss if they act so haphazardly!"
Another old Jianghu shook his head and said: "The situation here in Gusu is no different than elsewhere. The government's control is quite strict. The local garrison and the Laoshizi Production and Construction Corps are not easy to mess with. The Shuilong Gang was careless this time!"
"I guess they have something to rely on, otherwise they wouldn't be able to attract so many southern martial arts masters to celebrate!"
There was also Lao Jianghu who had different ideas. He pointed out the juniors who were following him and said with a smile: "There are no powerful gangs in Gusu, and there are no powerful masters in charge. Is this the reason why the Shuilong Gang is like this?"
"Who said there are no experts in Gusu?"
Lao Jianghu, who was standing next to him, sneered: "Haven't you noticed that the Shuilong Gang has made such a big noise, and the people nearby are still amazed?"
After hearing this, everyone looked towards the entrance of Shuilang Gang's newly established hall, and sure enough they didn't find any local people watching. Occasionally, people passing by would just look out of curiosity and hurried away, as if they didn't care at all.
"What does this mean?"
After being refuted, Lao Jianghu said disdainfully: "Although the people in the city are full of energy and strength, they are just ordinary people. How can they dare to participate in Jianghu affairs?"
"Humph, this old man doesn't even think about it. Even if the people are so capable, how can the garrison in the city be any worse?"
The old Jianghu who retorted was obviously very familiar with the situation in the Wuhou Territory, and said coldly: "The Wuhou Territory has developed so prosperously, but up to now, no Jianghu gang has been able to establish a presence here. Doesn't that explain something?
?”
"I have heard that Wu Hou is very powerful, and his martial arts skills are probably not as good as those of Song Que, the Heavenly Sword, and Shi Zhixuan of the Huajian Sect, who have been in the limelight recently. In addition, he has powerful soldiers. This makes the forces in the world afraid to act rashly!"
Another veteran in the world said: "But he really doesn't have any powerful characters. Otherwise, he would have been famous in the world a long time ago. How could he still be unknown now?"
"You don't need to argue. There is a group of soldiers coming to the newly established hall of the Shuilong Gang. I'm afraid there will be a good show!"
At this time, an unknown veteran of the arena shouted, and all the veterans gathered on the second floor looked over.
Sure enough, I happened to see a group of soldiers disperse the men who were watching the gang, causing a small commotion.
"What are you doing? Why don't you let us watch the excitement?"
The Jianghu man who was pushed away by the soldier was very dissatisfied and yelled at the soldier who had just passed by, without any fear of retaliation.
boom!
The soldier who had just passed by stopped in his tracks, turned around and punched out, knocking the shouting charlatan to the ground and unable to get up for a moment.
Wow!
Seeing the menacing soldier, he actually took action, and his punches were fierce and powerful. He knocked the shouting charlatan to the ground with one punch. Anyone with a little bit of eyesight would know that this punch was not an easy one. He was already shouting.
The hungry Jianghu man immediately retreated and made a sound.
“When the military is doing things, it’s not the outsiders’ turn to comment!”
The soldier who punched spoke coldly, with a loud voice that made the eardrums of all the gangsters hurt, and said in a very unkind tone: "You can watch the fun if you want, but don't hinder us from doing things, otherwise we will make you look good!"
After saying that, he walked directly to the open door of Shuilong Gang's new hall without looking back.
The crowd of Jianghu men who were watching were silent for a moment. Feeling the tyranny of this group of soldiers, they couldn't help but shudder in their hearts and did not dare to make any mistakes!
Dare to take the initiative to come looking for trouble from the Shuilong Gang. Such people and forces cannot be offended by men who are at the bottom of the world. Moreover, these military men are obviously not good people, and they have a fierce aura, so they should avoid causing trouble.
That's wonderful.
"Who are you? This is the headquarters of the Shuilong Gang. You must not act recklessly!"
Hearing the commotion, the steward of the Shuilong Gang who was in charge of welcoming guests hurried over, as if he had not seen the military uniform on the soldier's body, and said coldly with a frosty face: "If you have nothing to do, please leave, you are not welcome here!"
What greeted the welcome steward of the Shuilong Gang was a huge iron fist from the leader of the army. He came roaring with a fierce fist and said coldly: "When did the garrison allow you to open a hall? Leave it to me!"
