In more than a month, Xiao Ziyu's "Qingquan Wine Cellar" became famous, and its business spread throughout Shaanxi Province.
Of course, when your business grows, you will definitely encounter many people or forces who covet you.
Fortunately, the government had his own fight, so no one would covet his "Qingquan Wine Cellar" anymore. But this was the world of martial arts, so of course there were other people in the world who started to pay attention to him.
Of course, there was one thing that Xiao Ziyu did very well, which was to place this place in Huayin City at the foot of Huashan Mountain. This made many major Jianghu sects afraid to come and trouble him.
After all, this is the sphere of influence of the Huashan Sect, and other Jianghu sects cannot come here to snatch 'food'.
As for those loose people and desperadoes in the world, they are Xiao Ziyu's biggest threat. But Xiao Ziyu is not an idiot and of course he knows what to do.
He first called Zhang Qing and recruited all his Huashan disciples who were also from the outer sect. There were about eighty people.
Despite the fact that Huashan Mountain has been extremely weakened by the battle of sword energy, there are only three or two big and small cats in Inner Mongolia, but the outer disciples did not suffer much loss.
After all, all the inner disciples were involved in the sword energy battle at that time. Those outer disciples escaped unscathed.
These more than eighty Huashan outer sect disciples are not weak. Even if many of them have not developed their internal strength, there are still a few who have developed their internal strength at that time and have reached the level of the third rate in the world.
Therefore, at this time, "Qingquan Wine Cellar", because of their intimidation, no longer worried about others coveting it.
On this day, Xiao Ziyu finally went to Mount Huashan.
He brought several gifts and asked Zhang Qing and others to carry them, and slowly walked up the mountain. This time, he came to become a disciple.
Xiao Ziyu was also fully prepared. First he sent a greeting card.
But Yue Buqun, who received Xiao Ziyu's invitation, immediately called his wife Ning Zhongze.
"Senior brother, whose greetings are worthy of your being so cautious?" Hearing that someone had sent greetings, he found that his husband had a cautious look on his face, and at the same time there was some excitement on his face.
Ning Zhongze had a question in his mind and asked immediately.
"Haha! Madam, does she know about the 'Qingquan Wine Cellar' in Huayin City?" Yue Buqun stroked his beard and asked with a smile.
"Of course I know this. It seems that he came to our Huashan Mountain two months ago. And I heard that the business of 'Qingquan Wine Cellar' is very prosperous. The boss has made a lot of money."
Although Ning Zhongze didn't know what her husband meant, she still answered honestly.
"It's not that he has made a lot of money. At this time, he should be said to be the richest businessman in our Huayin City, and even the richest group of people in our Xi'an Prefecture," Yue Buqun said with some emotion.
"Really", Ning Zhongze suddenly opened his mouth slightly, obviously calmed by his husband's words.
"Is it this wealthy businessman who sent me the greeting card today?" Ning Zhongze, who suddenly noticed that his husband's expression was a little different, suddenly thought of something and asked.
"Well!" Yue Buqun nodded reservedly and said nothing, but his eyes were looking out the door of Zhengqi Hall.
"Senior brother, does he know why this wealthy businessman came to our Huashan?" Ning Zhongze continued to ask.
"I don't know about this anymore," Yue Buqun glanced at Ning Zhongze and shook his head. In fact, he had some guesses in his mind, but he wasn't sure, so he didn't say anything more.
After almost a cup of tea, Yue Buqun's ears twitched. After listening carefully, he suddenly heard the footsteps of several people not far from Zhengqi Hall. He guessed that it must be them.
Sure enough, after a while, under the leadership of the Huashan old man Bai Lao, Xiao Ziyu and his party entered the Zhengqi Hall.
As soon as Xiao Ziyu entered the righteous hall, he saw the middle-aged man sitting at the top with a five-willow beard and a face like a crown of jade. This man was dressed in a scholar's robe in blue. He was elegant and refined, and he really looked like a humble gentleman.
Next to him was a woman who looked to be in her twenties, with a simple bun and a girl-like skin. Xiao Ziyu guessed that this was Ning Zhongze.
Of course, when Xiao Ziyu was sizing up Yue Buqun and the others, they were also sizing up Xiao Ziyu. They saw that although Xiao Ziyu had an ordinary face, his temperament was extremely unique. He was well-informed and courteous. His appearance didn't have the flattering smile of those businessmen at all.
Xiao Ziyu gave them the impression that he looked very at ease.
"What a good man, but it's a pity that he is too old." Yue Buqun was very satisfied with everything about Xiao Ziyu, but of course there was a trace of regret in his heart.
"My dear Xiao Ziyu, a native of Yan'an Prefecture, Shaanxi Province, I heard that there is a Mr. Yue in Huashan who is highly skilled in martial arts, has a humble nature, is wise, filial and benevolent. He often fights against the strong and helps the weak. This young man is very pleased. Therefore, he wants to worship Mr. Yue as his teacher. I sincerely ask Mr. Yue to accept his teachings." The boy is his apprentice and he teaches him some martial arts to strengthen his body."
Before Yue Buqun and the others could speak first, Xiao Ziyu took the first step forward and knelt down in front of Yue Buqun to worship him.
"Little friend, please get up quickly." Seeing Xiao Ziyu kneeling down directly, Yue Buqun was also surprised, and quickly stood up and went to help Xiao Ziyu up.
"Please ask Mr. Yue to accept this boy as his disciple", but Xiao Ziyu knelt on the ground and refused to get up. And Yue Buqun did not dare to use any force.
So the two of them became involved like this.
"Senior brother, I look at the child. He is full of heaven, has bright eyes, and has good qualifications. Why don't you just accept him? Now our Huashan sect is also declining in numbers. Senior brother, accepting him as a disciple will also strengthen our Huashan sect."
Ning Zhongze saw that Yue Buqun and Xiao Ziyu were still in a stalemate, so he begged for Xiao Ziyu. After saying this, Xiao Ziyu was overjoyed and looked at Ning Zhongze with a grateful face.
"Well!" After hearing Ning Zhongze's words, Yue Buqun paused and pondered for a moment. Then he sat back in his seat, looked at Xiao Ziyu and said solemnly: "Little friend, are you really willing to become my disciple at Huashan?"
"Well," Xiao Ziyu asked after seeing that Yue Buqun had already relaxed. He must be accepting him as his disciple. Of course he was excited. A strange smile appeared on his face.
In the end, he gave his head a hard nod.
"Okay, since you are willing to be my disciple, you must abide by the seven precepts of Mount Hua. If you violate it, I will punish you severely."
"The seven major precepts of our Huashan sect are: first, to deceive teachers and destroy ancestors, and to disrespect elders; second, to bully the strong and the weak, and to harm innocent people; third, to refrain from being lustful and molesting women; fourth, to be jealous of fellow sect members and to treat each other. Kill brutally; fifth, refrain from being arrogant and offending fellow comrades; sixth, refrain from being unjust and stealing property; seventh, refrain from seducing bandits and colluding with evil spirits."
At the end, Yue Buqun became more and more serious.
At this moment, Xiao Ziyu felt that Yue Buqun's aura was definitely a master.
"Disciple is willing to accept the seven precepts of Mount Hua, and will abide by them from now on without breaking any of them." Xiao Ziyu said with a solemn expression and kowtowed three times to Yue Buqun.
"Congratulations, senior brother, for receiving a piece of beautiful jade." At this time, Ning Zhongze also happily complimented Yue Buqun.
"Haha!" After hearing Ning Zhongze's compliment, Yue Buqun laughed even more heartily. At this time, Xiao Ziyu immediately picked up the tea and said respectfully to Yue Buqun and Ning Zhongze: "Master,
Wife, please have tea."
"good!"
Then Yue Buqun brushed his beard with one hand, smiled and said the word "good". Then he picked up the tea Xiao Ziyu handed him and drank it in one gulp.
"Master, Master, this is the disciple's apprenticeship ceremony." After finally joining the Huashan Sect, Xiao Ziyu was extremely happy. Then he called Zhang Qing, took his gift list, and handed it to Yue Buqun and Ning Zhongze.
"hiss!!"
Yue Buqun and Ning Zhongze took a deep breath as soon as they saw what was written on the gift list.
‘Ten thousand taels of silver, five hundred acres of fertile land’.
"Ziyu, this is really too much." Yue Buqun was no longer calm at this time.
"It's okay, Master, the business of my wine cellar is okay, these are just my profits for more than half a month." Xiao Ziyu acted very grandly at this time, treating money like dirt.
Of course, Yue Buqun's face was even more shocked when he heard what Xiao Ziyu said. Although he had overestimated the profit-making speed of Xiao Ziyu's wine cellar, he never expected that the other party could make so much money in just half a month.
In fact, this is what Xiao Ziyu said. His wine cellar has made at least 70,000 to 80,000 yuan in one month. He only spent half of it on the government.
