After dinner, Zhang Rongfang continued to send people to guard Li's house.
This happened for three consecutive days, all the same.
It wasn't until the fourth day that a new attribute emerged again, and the Li family finally made some noise.
Li Guanyue came forward and asked Zhang Rongfang to meet and talk at the nearby Yunjing Restaurant.
Zhang Rongfang went happily.
Yunjing Restaurant is located in the outer ring of Citong. It is also a higher-end restaurant. The food and drink here are not very good, but the main thing is that the decoration is gorgeous and it looks quite decent.
The entire restaurant is three stories high, with different reception systems from top to bottom.
At the top level, only big customers who have spent a lot of money here all year round are eligible to make reservations in advance.
The middle ones are for regular prices, and the bottom ones are for cheap set meals for dine-in meals.
"Speaking of which, I also liked to eat here at Yunjing Restaurant a few years ago. The food is not very delicious, but the environment is good enough, the sound insulation is good, and the floor is thick, so it doesn't feel like walking around like other restaurants
The loud banging noise affects my mood."
In a large box on the third floor.
Li Guanyue and his eldest son Li Erchan were sitting at the large round table in the private room, talking to Zhang Rongfang and Zhang Zhenhai opposite.
Zhang Rongfang is still dressed as Zhang Jingrong, looking like a rich young man who likes to practice martial arts. He holds a white fan in his hand, wears jade in his long hair, and is wild and wild with a hint of heroism.
Next to him, Zhang Zhenhai was wearing a black mask, a black gauze hat, black slim-fitting clothes with blue edges, and was dressed as a maid escort.
"Master Li, why don't you tell me frankly, what conditions are required before I am willing to seriously train the Thirteen Taibao and teach them to me." Zhang Rongfang asked sincerely.
"This... is actually very simple." Li Guanyue smiled, his somewhat melancholy expression fading slightly.
"My Li family has a unique skill. You have to know that even in Dadu or Zhongdu, just give me a shout and countless experts will come to inquire about the price.
Therefore, the price of this martial arts teaching will definitely not be low..."
"That's easy to say. Master Li will give you a price and I'll figure it out whether it's suitable or not." Zhang Rongfang smiled and said, as long as you are willing to make a price, everything else is easy to say.
Li Guanyue laughed and patted the table gently.
"Mr. Zhang is so happy, I'll tell you straight away. If you want to learn my family's martial arts, you need to meet a number of conditions. The first of which is to pay a sufficient deposit."
"How much is the deposit?" Zhang Rongfang asked.
"This is the number!" Li Guanyue opened his hand and tied his index finger.
"It's easy to talk about. Is it one thousand taels? No problem." Zhang Rongfang said with a relaxed smile.
"Ten thousand taels!" Li Guanyue explained directly. "The deposit is at least ten thousand taels!"
In fact, he had no intention of teaching martial arts at all, but his family was really struggling to make ends meet, and he owed too much money for goods. In desperation, he could only think of cheating as much as he could.
Just offset the debt first and then talk about it.
"Okay!" Zhang Rongfang smiled without moving and nodded slightly.
hiss...
Li Guanyue was shocked. In fact, he was just talking like a lion. Who would have thought that the other party would agree immediately without any pause.
"Are you sure!?" He said seriously. But he understood in his heart that his martial arts might be more important in the other person's heart than he thought.
The price offered just now was too low... Li Guanyue knew immediately.
"Of course I'm sure." Zhang Rongfang nodded.
Although he has no money now, and he has been spending money on martial arts training, but with the money from the secret store and his previous savings, it is no problem to use this ten thousand taels.
I just didn't expect that the other party would ask for so much at once.
"Well, when can I sign the signature and collect the deposit?" Li Guanyue said hurriedly.
"Of course you can at any time." Zhang Rongfang nodded.
Not long after, the two drew up a signing agreement, agreeing that one party would pay the money, and the other party would teach the complete martial arts to others after meeting the other conditions.
Li Guanyue thought for a while and carefully added three conditions to the agreement.
"After paying the deposit, as long as you can meet the three conditions I mentioned, my Li family will definitely teach you this authentic martial arts with all your money!" He said solemnly.
In fact, if he hadn't done business before, the fleet would have collapsed and suffered losses. A large sum of money would still have not been repaid.
Now I won’t go out and exchange my martial arts skills for money.
Originally, he just wanted to get a few thousand taels in the name of teaching martial arts.
Who would have thought...
Ten thousand taels... The person in front of me actually took it all out without blinking??
With this money, he can even directly rebuild his previous fleet, which is even more than enough.
Immediately, Zhang Rongfang quickly took out 10,000 taels of silver notes, a total of ten 1,000 taels of Great Lingzhi Yuanbao banknotes, all of which were newly issued, and Zhang Zhenhai gave them directly to him at the side.
Li Guanyue suppressed the excitement in his heart and felt as if he was in a dream. After getting the money, he felt a little wobbly in his steps when he left the restaurant.
The suffering of these days seemed to have all passed at this moment.
Return home.
Several children gathered around him in a hurry.
"Dad! How's the situation!?"
"Dad, how did the conversation go?"
"Where is the money? Where is the money??"
The three sons and three daughters eagerly came forward, waiting for their father's reply.
"Don't worry, everything goes well...even smoother than expected." Li Guanyue laughed.
The long-term depression and discomfort are all relieved at this moment.
He told the story exactly as it was, and all the children suddenly exclaimed slightly.
"With so much money, that person gave it all at once?"
"Dad, are you really going to take the teaching seriously this time?"
"No rush, no rush... If he can really complete the three subsequent conditions, I will definitely be willing to teach him seriously." Li Guanyue nodded.
It's just that he didn't quite believe it when he heard it.
It's not like no one had the idea of passing down martial arts to his family before, but he blocked them all.
The reason why I agreed this time was because my family really couldn’t bear it any longer.
In addition, aren’t there three conditions?
At that time, as long as that person fails to meet the three conditions, he can definitely teach him martial arts in large numbers, and just pass on some family martial arts skills, and everything will be over.
He is simply not too familiar with this kind of routine.
And he is not the only one who has used it like this. There are countless people in the Li family who have done this.
Otherwise, where did those degraded versions of Thirteen Taibao Henglian on the market come from?
While comforting his children, Li Guanyue began to figure out how to use the money to quickly rebuild the fleet.
He was unwilling to fail like this.
People just get up wherever they fall.
So he wants to make another comeback.
But he didn't notice.
Among his children, the youngest daughter Li Huansha, who has always been the most sensible and gentle, was looking at him slightly worriedly.
In fact, the reason why they came to Erythronica to make a living was because they had defrauded others of a large sum of money elsewhere, and then used it to buy a fleet of ships, hoping to become the boss of the ship.
Otherwise, in this day and age, no one would be willing to move around with a family of so many people.
But if you use this method too much, something will eventually happen...

Dozens of miles away from Citong Port, there is a wild coast.
On a rugged and steep rocky beach.
Zhang Rongfang, dressed in black, and Zhang Yunqi stood alone on two rocks facing each other.
There was no one around except them.
There were no rebels, no idle fishermen, and no subordinates around Zhang Rongfang.
The sea breeze blows and the waves hit the rocks.
The two of them were more than ten meters apart, and their bodies were standing straight.
"After more than half a year, the young master's strength has grown significantly. It seems that it won't be long before he can surpass this old man like me." Zhang Yunqi sighed.
"Why did Uncle Yun Qi say this? I still have a long way to go before I can reach your level. I may be able to do it in the future, but I'm still far behind now." Zhang Rongfang said modestly.
"Just think that you are comforting me." Zhang Yunqi smiled, "This time we have continuously encircled and suppressed the induced spirit loop, which has attracted the attention of many forces. Especially in the past six months, the frequency of our actions has become higher and higher.
It’s getting faster and faster, and I’m afraid it has alerted others.”
"Is it Lingting, or..." Zhang Rongfang frowned slightly.
"Someone from the Xizong and the Tantric Sect have come to Citong. Both sides seem to be planning something. They are both fighting for control of the fleet." Zhang Yunqi sighed, "Now we are only following your lead. I wonder what your plans are?"
"Just sit back and watch what happens. From the beginning to the end, our goal is to preserve ourselves and continue to wait for the future. The conflict between the Xizong and the Esoteric Sect, what does it have to do with us?" Zhang Rongfang replied.
"I understand." Zhang Yunqi nodded.
"Actually, there is another reason why I called Uncle Yun Qi out today." Zhang Rongfang continued, "That is, I just happened to have a breakthrough in martial arts, and I wanted to find someone to try my hand at, but there was no suitable opponent around, so...
..”
"Okay, then let's practice with the young master." Zhang Yunqi was actually very curious about the strength of this human race young master.
This Mr. Zhang Ying is rumored to be the Taoist priest with the highest literary qualifications in the history of Taoism.
But in terms of martial arts, I only know that he was once the spiritual envoy of the Golden Wing Tower, and I know nothing about the rest.
In recent times, I have only seen this person practicing in the east and practicing in the west, rarely focusing on teaching martial arts. It seems that he is not doing his job properly.
This time I can take a closer look to see what his martial arts skills are.
Only in this way can we better allocate our forces to protect the opponent in subsequent actions.
"Then, I'm offended." Zhang Rongfang cupped his fists and bowed.
"Young master, please." Zhang Yunqi is Sankong. Although his physical fitness has declined due to not worshiping gods, Sankong's super-class strength is matched with his own extremely high martial arts attainments.
In terms of technique, the speed and strength of the descent more than make up for it.
The two of them concentrated and held their breath, looking at each other.
Suddenly, two figures rushed out and rushed towards each other at the same time.
Zhang Yunqi's martial arts practice is a bit mixed. Sometimes his strikes are as sharp as a blade, and sometimes as gentle as falling leaves. It all depends on personal choice.
But this time, he chose to be quick.
In the blink of an eye, the two passed each other and exchanged moves instantly.
There was no contact, just at the moment when he was about to be injured, he stopped his hand at the same time and passed by.
The speed of the two exploded, and they were almost the same.
Zhang Yunqi was shocked. He remembered that in the past, this Taozi's martial arts were only at the level of external medicine, but now he actually...
Without any time to think about it, his body shape changed, he turned around and stepped forward, unfolding a set of Bagua Iron Heart Palm like a flowing cloud.
This set of martial arts is the advanced martial arts he uses most when he is not holding a sword. It is characterized by balanced attack and defense, sharpness and dexterity.
In the face of any sudden outbreak of martial arts, it has a strong fault tolerance function.
Zhang Rongfang, on the other hand, started with the Dao Taoist Talisman Technique.
Daojiao's martial arts are peaceful, balanced and diverse. They are also excellent martial arts for dealing with various strange martial arts.
This kind of martial arts is tenacious and broad. No matter what strange moves you face, you can find the corresponding solution from a large number of moves and techniques.
The Eight Diagrams Iron Heart Palm on the opposite side has dexterous movement, and its palms are powerful and explosive.
Zhang Rongconveniently responded with the lighter and more balanced Hunyuan Talisman and the Vigor Talisman.
