Chapter 319 Expansion
The establishment of the Iron Blood Sect means that the competition for power in this area has officially begun.
Many people thought that the Iron Blood Sect would have great movements, but unexpectedly, the Iron Blood Sect did not move at all, as if nothing had happened, and they had not seen them recruit disciples or something. Now all the disciples are still dozens of people plus the people brought by the Eagle King later, and all of them were only about one hundred and fifty. This level of people can only ensure the self-safety of the entire Iron Blood Sect, but they do not have enough strength to do other things. In addition, the uneven personnel quality, kung fu, etc. are also directly causing them to not be able to form combat power in a short period of time, so they must be trained now, and the training matter was finally handed over to the Eagle King. It is naturally not an easy thing for the famous Eagle King to train them, but it also made the disciples of the Iron Blood Sect ecstatic. You must know that the Eagle King is famous.
As for the disciples of Xuan Dao Hall, they were still under the jurisdiction of Xuan Dao Hall, but they had limited the number of people, so the number was not large, and they could only maintain the daily needs of Xuan Dao Hall.
Countless pairs of eyes were staring at the Iron Blood Sect, but after looking, there was no movement in the Iron Blood Sect. In other words, the Iron Blood Sect seemed to be just established, and at first, it seemed that it would disappear at once.
"They are just strong outside and the middle!"
The main personnel of the Linhu Gang located in Fenshui Town are now among several gangs.
The Linhu Gang is also a major gang in this area. It controls at least three waterways leading to Taihu Lake and makes a living by collecting tolls. Unlike Feng Bingcun's Xuandao Hall, the Linhu Gang has not been established for only more than ten years. It is still quite famous for its fierce struggle in the local area. It also surrendered to the Wuhu Gang at the time.
However, there is a very obvious difference between them and Xuandaotang. Although Xuandaotang is a gang and has a huge power, in one aspect, their main means of making money is actually through industries. However, Linhu Gang maintains the development of the gang by collecting protection fees from passing ships and merchants around the gang.
In the battle of Xishan, Xuan Daotang was defeated and finally completely surrendered to the Iron Blood Sect, which really made the Linhu Gang feel like a great enemy. They also believed that the Iron Blood Sect's target was not only Suzhou, but also Xuan Daotang, but it was very likely that the entire Taihu Lake was the entire.
But I waited tremblingly for the establishment of the Iron Blood Sect, but found that after the establishment of the Iron Blood Sect, nothing happened, or did nothing.
The only thing I did was probably accept allegiance to some small gangs, such as the Jukun Gang.
The Linhu Gang was disdainful of the Jukun Gang. The reason was very simple. They had almost no combat power. The Jukun Gang was actually a gang composed of a group of fishermen. Their purpose was not to compete for territory. They just wanted to fish honestly, and then everyone bullied the fishermen. Even their gang leader had to fish by themselves.
A dignified gang leader doesn't manage gang affairs well, and he even catches fish by himself?
Therefore, in the eyes of many gangs around Taihu Lake, the Giant Kun Gang is just a joke. They surrender to the Iron Blood Sect, and many people also think that they have no combat power anyway, and surrendering or not surrendering has no impact on the Iron Blood Sect.
The surrounding gangs look down on the Jukun Gang, so they can survive in the slits in the gangs and the Taihu Lake with all the major trends.
The person who spoke was Su Yun, the second leader of the Linhu Gang.
She is only nineteen years old this year, and it has only been half a year since she was promoted to the second gang leader. She has been learning martial arts in the Lingnan Sword Sect before. She returned to the Linhu Gang two years ago. This gang leader Su Mu is her eldest brother. Many people who were promoted to the second gang leader were a little dissatisfied. You should know that she is a female, but many people soon dispelled this doubt. The Lingnan Sword Sect is not very famous in the world. One of the big reasons is that the disciples of the sect rarely travel to the world.
But after all, I have been practicing martial arts since I was a child, and it is not the sects who rely on brute force and then have a few crops to compare, so soon no one in the gang dared to object.
Su Yun didn't like to help with meetings or something, but this time he listened to the spy's report patiently, he came to such a conclusion, and then stood up and said, "Gangmaster, my sister has something to do, so I want to leave now. I'll notify me if I have anything to do."
The gang leader Su Mu was half lying on the gang leader's chair at this moment, and a young girl was sitting next to him gently pinching his shoulders. He waved his hand and waited for her to leave, then he slowly said: "There is no movement in the Iron Blood Sect now, which does not mean that there is no movement in the future. Let people closely monitor them. How can the wolf ambition of the Iron Blood Sect be just in Suzhou!"
"yes!"
Someone immediately agreed below.
Su Mu can take the position of gang leader and has some strengths. This person is cruel. If he offends, he will be revenge and will never leave any troubles. The second is that he is versatile. In this area, Linhu Gang is also a powerful person and bullies the market. There are countless cases of bullying and dominating the market. The local government turns a blind eye, which is somewhat due to the management of some.
There is indeed no movement in the Iron Blood Sect now, but it does not mean that there will be no movement in the future. You must be careful and know yourself and your enemy to be able to win every battle. Su Mu is very clear about this.
He slowly sat upright and said, "In addition, you should think about it carefully. If this Iron Blood Sect is really strong and we want to surrender, how can we deal with it?"
"What's there to deal with? Let's fight them!"
Immediately someone shouted loudly.
Su Mu suddenly felt a little unhappy. Fighting and killing, and going straight, perhaps it is a big characteristic of his own people. If he encounters brain-based things, it will obviously be a bit insufficient.
So he asked, "Fight with them? Even Xuandao Hall can't beat him. What do you use to fight with others?"
The people present suddenly became quiet. Many of them knew nothing about the world. They were like frogs in the well. Su Yun probably couldn't even rank the title in the world, but could steadily sit in the second-in-command position. This only shows that it would be fine if they bully the honest ordinary people and the businessmen who did not want to cause trouble in the past. As long as those experts in the world did not cause human lives, they were not extremely vicious or otherwise, they were usually too lazy to ask about it.
That's why we can gain a foothold here.
But if the Iron Blood Sect wants to grab territory, it doesn’t matter whether you are extremely vicious or not. Those who follow me will prosper and defy me will perish. This is the same thing as the world.
"But we can't just bully them like this!"
Someone whispered, "It seems that he can't swallow this tone even if he is bullied so forth."
Su Mu raised his tone slightly and said, "If you don't want to bully, then use your brain to think about how to deal with the Iron Blood Sect, don't know that the lights and wine are bright and you're doing nothing in one day! If you don't have this place, it's like drinking and having fun in the future, don't even think about it!"
After saying that, Su Mu got up and left, leaving the people in the room to look at me, and I looked at you, and someone suddenly said disdainfully: "Is the Iron Blood Sect so powerful? It is said that a strong dragon will not suppress the local snake. If he comes to our territory and causes trouble, they will definitely have the life to come and go back without a chance!"
"That's right, what are you afraid of? The people in Xuandao Hall are all soft persimmons, so they were caught and pinched. We all from Linhu Gang are not afraid of death. How dare he fight us with the Iron Blood Sect? I think the leader of the gang is a little worried!"
"This is to increase other people's ambition and destroy one's own majesty!"
"Okay, it's been scattered. Today, the restaurant on West Street opened. The shopkeeper sent an invitation a few days ago. Let's go together. How about going together?"
There are eight leaders of the Linhu Gang, and eight of them are here today. Apart from the leader and Su Yun, there are only six left. Since there is wine, no one refuses, so the group happily goes there.
Zhao Yuan is also in the town at this moment.
If this large and small gang really obeys the orders of the Iron Blood Sect, then follow the rules of the world, that is, the winner is the king. Zhao Yuan also attaches great importance to this, so he simply came here in person.
The one who came with Zhao Yuan was Wugang, and he didn't bring any guards, but thinking about it, Zhao Yuan didn't need to bring guards now. The guards brought them. I guess if something really happened, it wouldn't be them protecting Zhao Yuan, but Zhao Yuan protecting them.
“It’s still quite lively here!”
Zhao Yuan was dressed up as a young man at this moment, and said with a white long gown, holding a white paper fan, watching the people coming and going on the street, and said sincerely that it is natural to think about it. Since ancient times, the Jiangnan region has been relatively wealthy. In addition to the good climate to ensure grain production, the dense water system network is also a big reason. Moreover, since ancient times, people have found places to live by water.
Wugang dressed up as a servant and said, "Indeed, this place was originally an important town."
Zhao Yuan said: "What is the reputation of Linhu Gang here?"
Wugang said: "We have found out this point clearly. To be precise, the Linhu Gang is a local bully here, which is a ruined redundant praise."
"oh?"
Zhao Yuan asked in confusion, "What do you say?"
Wugang said: "The Linhu Gang was established for about ten years. The first five people relied on their kung fu to collect protection fees in the local area. Later, they won over a group of unemployed vagrants and so on. Therefore, they have such a force. They now control their peers on several rivers. All passing ships, no matter how big or small, have to be charged tolls. If they are not given, the mild ones will be beaten, and the severe ones will be burned. People around them dare not speak out. In addition, they have some collusion with the government, which makes them accomplices here."
Zhao Yuan sighed and said, "It's not just a collusion between officials and bandits. It's still the same rule. When we want to take action, we will send someone to say hello to the government here, so that they'd better turn a blind eye!"
Wugang said: "Yes, young master!"
Zhao Yuan nodded and walked slowly forward. Just as he was thinking, a noisy sound came from the front. The two looked forward and saw that the two men from the gang were facing an old woman: "As long as you set up a stall and sell vegetables in this town, don't you know that you can pay for it?"
There were probably two ducks in front of the old woman, and her clothes were also ragged. He begged after hearing this: "You two adults, please give me some money. The old woman really... I don't have money. The old man is sick and has no money to see a doctor."
"I care whether you are sick or not. As long as you do business here, you have to pay!"
The two of them obviously didn't take that trick.
The old woman said, "That old...that old woman won't sell it!"
"If you don't sell it, it's not that simple!"
One person said, "I look at the ducks, too."
As he said that, he reached out to rob, and the old woman hurriedly begged: "Two guys, this..."
Zhao Yuan's face slightly darkened, and Wugang quickly said, "Young Master, it's better not to disclose your whereabouts on someone else's territory."
Of course, he actually knew in his heart that Zhao Yuan would never listen to his advice.
Zhao Yuan said: "We practice martial arts just to help the weak, and to turn a blind eye and listen to it. Wouldn't we be useless to practice martial arts?"
While speaking, he walked up and smiled and said, "Two, I like these ducks, why don't you give them to me?"
The two people in front of me are the members of the Linhu Gang. The Linhu Gang is powerful here and no one dares to provoke him, so all the people around him dare not speak out.
The two of them turned around and looked at Zhao Yuan in front of them. Suddenly someone came to destroy their good things. They were immediately unhappy and said, "My master, why do you give it to you?"
Zhao Yuan smiled and said, "Since you two like you, you can give it to you according to the market price and trade fairly!"
The two of them looked at Zhao Yuan like an idiot. One of them sneered: "Just, my master, where do I want? When did I give money? Do you meddle in other people's business!"
Zhao Yuan said: "You have parents too. Don't say that this old man is your parents, you have more than your mother-in-law. Is it inappropriate to bully an old man like this?"
The man suddenly got angry and said, "It seems you are here to find fault. Why? In the territory of our Linhu Gang, do you still want to make trouble?"
Zhao Yuan said: "I am not here to make trouble. Now I am just explaining to you. Even if I bully someone, don't bully an old man. Are you not ashamed?"
"Shame?"
The man sneered, rolled up his sleeves, and said, "I think you are here to find fault! Give you some lessons and memory!"
While speaking, he punched Zhao Yuan.
"stop!"
Suddenly someone shouted.
When the fist was still one inch away from Zhao Yuan's face, someone suddenly shouted.
The person who punched turned his head and looked at it, immediately lowered his head and said, "The Second Chief."
Su Yun came, so she slipped out first. She originally planned to stroll around the street, but she knew that she had encountered someone from her own gang fighting with someone else, so she came forward to stop drinking.
This person probably never expected that Su Yun's timely appearance would save him. If his fist was next to Zhao Yuan's face, his hand would be completely useless.
