When he returned to Huayin, Yue Buqun sent his disciples around him back to the mountain first, and he came directly to the Chen family.
"Brother Chen, what do things happen in Hengyang are like?"
When Mr. Chen was led to the lobby and sat down, Yue Buqun asked directly.
With the strength of the Chen family at this time and the sending of close friends to participate in the Golden Basin hand washing, even Chen Ying, who was far away in the capital, heard the news, and it was unreasonable that Mr. Chen didn't know.
"I don't have any opinions, it has nothing to do with us!"
Mr. Chen was very cold and said bluntly: "I said to Master Yue, our focus is in the northwest. Don't blindly participate in Central Plains affairs!"
When I said this, my tone was not very good.
In recent years, the Chen family and the Huashan faction have joined forces, but have spent a lot of manpower, material resources and financial resources to extend their strength and tentacles to the hinterland of the northwest.
Even the Western Regions, which are no longer the territory of the Ming Dynasty, have two branches and strongholds.
During this period, in order to solve the obstacles that did not give face, whether it was the Chen family or the Huashan faction, many good players were sent to clean up.
Even Yue Buqun sometimes has to take action himself.
As the two forces spread to the Western Regions, the originally blocked trade route was forcibly opened, and the two companies naturally made a lot of money.
According to Chen Ying's plan, such a scale is obviously far from enough.
In the future, the two families will continue to invest their strength, and it is best to become the real overlord of the Northwest, which is the real century-old foundation.
Of course, there are other considerations, but the amazing economic interests alone are enough to tie the Huashan faction and the Chen family together to focus their main energy on the northwest and even the Western Regions.
The northwestern border is not calm. Not to mention the Mongolian forces that have been restless, the Tianfang Sect is not a fuel-efficient lamp.
After arriving in the Western Regions, the situation became more complicated, and even the powerful thief forces with the same combat power as the army may face it, and there is a huge demand for capable personnel.
In other words, the Chen Family Training Camp has trained a large number of joint warriors and can closely control this trade route.
If it were the Huashan School to operate alone, even if the sword energy dispute had not yet broken out, it would be impossible to control it carefully.
Therefore, in addition to paying special attention to court affairs, Mr. Chen was very interested in the Central Plains.
Even if the Central Plains River and Lake are unified, there will be only so many benefits.
There is nothing more than private salt and river shipping. How can you compete for those officials and gentry with other means of profit?
The situation here in the northwest is different, because they often fight with foreign enemies, and there are almost no powerful officials and gentry forces here, and the most powerful one is the border generals.
If you want to gain benefits, your methods are quite simple and crude, just look at who has a bigger fist.
The imperial court's control and influence in the northwest border was really very ordinary.
To be honest, dealing with General Bian is actually quite simple, at least Mr. Chen thinks it is particularly suitable for his appetite.
With the current size of the Chen family in Huayin, as long as the court does not deliberately target it, it will not take long to completely become the overlord of the northwest.
How can you compare the huge profits of border trade by playing private salt and shipping, as well as some means of making money that are not allowed to be used?
Not to mention, there is actually no shortage of salt ponds deep in the grassland.
In addition, various mineral resources are also quite rich. As long as the Chen family's power spreads, it is only a matter of time before it can be completely controlled.
In other words, Chen Ying did not have the intention to rebel, otherwise he would have been more radical and the strength of the Chen family could have expanded even more.
In this way, how could Mr. Chen look down on the Central Plains?
To be honest, in the next ten years, according to the speed and scale of the Chen family's training of good players, the number of incoming players in the entire Central Plains is not as high as that of the Chen family.
The grasslands outside the border and the Western Regions may be just remote places to others.
But in Chen Ying's eyes, it is a good place to create massive wealth and amazing resources.
Not to mention anything else, even simply selling cattle, sheep and horses can quickly become a wealthy person in the entire Ming Dynasty.
With a higher vision, I naturally feel dissatisfied with Yue Buqun's performance that he has the main battlefield of Jianghu.
"Brother Chen, it's Yue's fault!"
Yue Buqun was a little embarrassed and quickly bowed his hand to express his apology.
But he smiled bitterly in his heart. Some things he values are not worth mentioning in the eyes of Mr. Chen at this time.
Since this is the case, he naturally would not stir up Mr. Chen's anger. He changed his tone and said directly: "I heard that your mansion will have a big move recently?"
"Nothing, I just want to clean up the horse thief in the northwest!"
"Are you just a horse thief in the Ming Dynasty?"
"How is it possible? It's mainly targeting horse thieves from the outside world!"
"This is not easy to do!"
"You have to do it even if it is difficult to do it, otherwise the trade route will be often harassed, and there will be too much money wasted on it!"
"There are many good players among these horse thieves, and they are closely connected with many rivers and tribal forces in the foreign territory!"
"Whatever we do, we just need to catch them as a horse thief and chase them hard. There is no need to pay too much attention to the others!"
"I'm afraid that at that time, the foreign powers and tribal forces will pull the back and even stab the knife in the back!"
Mr. Chen smiled without saying a word, and looked confident.
Yue Buqun was a little surprised and tentatively said: "Can you have any support?"
"As long as we are strong enough, we don't have to worry about anything!"
Mr. Chen did not explain and smiled, "I heard that Linghu Chong went to Fuzhou. Did he get the Evil-Breaking Sword Guide?"
"It's got it!"
Yue Buqun admitted readily that Linghu Chong's whereabouts could not be concealed by the Chen family's attention, and there was no need to hide anything.
"Can you reach the innate realm directly?"
Mr. Chen became interested and said curiously: "Lin Yuantu was a world-class man for many years and was considered a top expert!"
"Haha, Lin Yuantu never broke through the innate until his death, otherwise he would not have passed away early!"
Yue Buqun shook his head and said calmly: "The Evil-Breaking Sword Score is not complete. Of course, its concept and route of exercise are very unique!"
Mr. Chen nodded and smiled, without saying anything nonsense about taking a look.
After having a meal at the Chen family, Yue Buqun said goodbye and left to return to Huashan.
...
The main hall of Songshan School was gathered together.
Zuo Leng Tea is the first in the high position, and its temperament is as solid as a mountain, making people feel very oppressive.
Not to mention anything else, the Thirteenth Tai Bao of Songshan sat quietly, not even dared to take a breath, and listened quietly to the commander's orders.
At this time, Zuo Lengchan's strength had reached its peak.
It is only half a step away from the peak of acquired nature.
Not only that, the powerful internal power of the ice he had figured out himself was definitely considered a unique skill of magic.
The success of his achievements made him a true master of martial arts.
If it were put in the original work, his cultivation level would definitely be enough to sweep the entire Five Mountains Sword Sect. I am afraid that the Five Mountains and Sect would have succeeded long ago.
Even if you face Shaolin Fangzheng and Wudang Chongxu, you are not afraid at all, and your strength may even be higher.
The Songshan Sect can definitely become an existence comparable to that of Shaolin Wudang under his leadership.
It’s just a pity that the current world is not strong enough in the top-notch strength.
Not to mention the two innate monks in Shaolin and the Eastern leader of the Sun and Moon God Sect, just Huashan Yuebuqun within the Five Mountains Sword Sect, it is not something Zuo Lengchan can handle.
This made him quite frustrated...
I felt a strong threat, and the position of the leader of the Five Mountains who are not good at Songshan Sect will be shaken.
Therefore, in recent years, the Songshan Party has been closely monitoring the Huashan Party.
Now, he summoned the Thirteen Taibao just to talk about the matter of the Huashan School.
"What's going on in Huashan recently?"
"Sect Master, everything on Huashan is as normal, and there is no major move at all!"
Zuo Lengchan frowned slightly and said unbelievingly: "How is that possible?"
It’s not his fault for judging others. If he really judges others by himself, if he had Yue Buqun’s strength and resources, he would definitely not be willing to be lonely.
"Is it possible that Yue Buqun took a group of disciples to Hengyang this time, just to go through the motions?"
Thirteen Taibao looked at each other. They really thought so in their hearts, and of course they would not take the initiative to say it.
"Senior Brother, the Huashan Sect has always been focused on the northwest. As long as they do not take the initiative to enter the Central Plains, we have nothing to worry about!"
"Yes, I don't know what the Huashan Sect is thinking. In short, there is basically no intention to spread the tentacles to the Central Plains in recent years!"
"I heard that the Huashan faction has had many conflicts with the local Jianghu forces and tribal forces in the northwest and even in the Western Regions. Yue Buqun put most of his thoughts there and had no intention of paying attention to the affairs of the Central Plains Jianghu!
”
"I don't know what Yue Buqun thought, but this move by the Huashan Sect is a good thing for us!"
"Yes, we can make arrangements calmly and find ways to get rid of Shaolin's restraint. We can't really ask Huashan to catch up!"
“…”
After listening to the Thirteen Taibao's comments, Zuo Lengchan breathed a sigh of relief. No matter how unwilling he was in his heart, he could only let go for the time being.
Originally, he wanted to join the Five Mountains Sect, so that the Songshan Sect could become a powerful force like Shaolin Wudang.
Unfortunately, the Huashan Sect has risen too fast and Yue Buqun's strength is too strong.
If we still insist on the Five Mountains and the Sect at this time, we might make wedding clothes for the Huashan Sect and Yue Buqun.
But he had always had thoughts in his mind, always thinking of using the power of the other Five Yue Sword Sects to achieve his goal in one fell swoop.
But at the moment, even if he doesn't admit it, he can't do anything about it.
Over the years, Zuo Lengchan has been monitoring the movements of the Huashan Sect. Zuo Lengchan saw that the development direction of the Huashan Sect was obviously not in the Central Plains. While breathing a sigh of relief, it was inevitable that he felt a sense of urgency.
Huashan School is very successful, and not to mention anything else, you can make a lot of money by relying on border trade alone.
All fools know that if you have money, you can recruit more disciples to train them. When the Huashan Sect completely recovers, the Songshan Sect will be in a bad situation...
