Yang Xuan fully agreed to Du Chengfeng's request.
This may trigger resistance among the clan members, and Yang Xuan has been prepared for this. After all, it is indeed a bit unbelievable to treat an outsider with such courtesy, even an outsider who has a grudge against his Yang family. It may even make people think that Yang Xuan is crazy. .
But Yang Xuan himself knew that it was all worth it.
People who can control the evil spirit of weapons are not extraordinary. People who can do this are all determined as iron. Even if such a person cannot achieve success and dominate the world, he is far from being able to provoke the little Yang Family Fort. Affordable. But now, the man named Du Chengfeng not only did not cause any trouble to his Yang family, he even asked his Yang family to help.
This was a far more reassuring answer than letting go of grudges with a smile. After all, the binding of interests is the most stable cooperation. Now that the other party is asking for help from the Yang family, doesn't it mean that the Yang family has overcome this disaster?
"So can you understand? This is actually an opportunity for me, Yang."
In the Yang Ancestral Hall, Yang Xuan, who was sitting upright, explained his thoughts to the clan members in front of him.
"If this strong man can be allowed to stay in our Yangjiapu, then first of all, our Yangjiapu's safety will be sufficiently guaranteed. Furthermore, Jizhou is close to Mobei and is the place where the Fourth War was fought. The folk customs are tough, and there are countless heroes fighting and killing on weekdays... Do you understand what I mean?"
"this……"
Hearing Yang Xuan actually talk about this, the Yang family's disciples gathered in the ancestral hall couldn't help but sit up straight.
They knew the heroes who fought and killed. After all, strictly speaking, Yang Sanlang in the clan could be considered one of the heroes. However, unlike Yang Sanlang, who is a local, there are some heroes who have no heel. They rely on their martial arts skills and the swords and weapons in their hands to commit crimes and make a living in this troubled world.
The reason why we use the term "conspiracy to commit crimes" is naturally because private fighting was strictly prohibited in the Chen Dynasty. Although some people were willing to find a place where no one was around to have a fight, no one would be able to control it. But if the incident happened, Or if the body is reported by passers-by, the predator responsible for maintaining law and order will still take action.
And this also means that it is difficult to find someone to help polish the vicious weapons in the hands of those heroes.
After all, most of the polishing craftsmen were affiliated with the imperial court, and some of these people worked in the military and were responsible for polishing weapons for the soldiers. The other part works with the predators. On the one hand, it removes evil spirits from the predators' weapons, and on the other hand, it is also responsible for detecting the murder weapons in those murder cases. If the wandering heroes killed someone, they naturally couldn't find these two families. That would be a sheep in the tiger's mouth, and they happened to be killed by the other party to receive the merit.
Although there are still a few craftsmen who can sharpen weapons living among the people, these heroes who are wandering around committing crimes cannot afford to hire them. As mentioned just now, those who can control the evil aura of swords and weapons all have a will as strong as iron. With such an indomitable and firm will, no matter which aspect you want to develop, you will naturally be able to make something of your own. career comes.
To put it bluntly, everyone has their own things to do. You can just say it's relatives and friends, but if it's a stranger, why should they waste their energy and sharpen their swords for you, a so-called hero?
Of course, it is not ruled out that there are people who really regard sharpening knives as a hobby, or they are just too busy, but such people are either extremely difficult to find, or the price is extremely high, but even so, those heroes in the world are still flocking to them. Even at great cost, these craftsmen must repair their swords completely.
After all, for many warriors, a common sword is as close as a sibling.
And now, in Yangjiabao, there is such a grinding craftsman who can control the evil spirit of weapons, but is not affiliated with the imperial court.
And the other party is also very willing to sharpen his weapons.
"I heard something a few days ago."
It was at this time that a young member of the Yang family remembered something and spoke.
"Just a few days ago, Liu Qingyun, the famous swordsman in our Jizhou, the fast-swordsman, went to Yanzhou in the south and found a reclusive old master to sharpen his knife. His knife was also very popular. You know, he hired a blacksmith in Ji Town, and the labor cost added up to a thousand dollars, which is always... But do you know how much he spent on sharpening the knife?"
Having said this, the Yang family member paused.
"Five hundred guan. It is said that the old master felt sorry for him and charged him a cheap price."
"hiss……"
The rest of the Yang family's children couldn't help but take a breath of cold air, and even the old Yang Xuan almost broke his beard.
They have also heard about similar things. People who practice martial arts attach great importance to weapons, and everyone knows it. But spending five hundred guan to sharpen a knife worth only one guan, isn't it too...
Should I say luxury? Or should I say waste?
"Maybe that sword is as important to him as the ancestral sword is to my Yang family."
Yang Xuan sighed, barely understanding the matter.
But the rest of the Yang family's children are not focused on this aspect.
They subconsciously looked in the direction of the dilapidated courtyard, as if they saw a palace made of gold.
Even if they don't do anything about intermediary pumping, as long as they publicize this matter, when the flow of people comes, Yangjiabao will be able to make a lot of money!
"Uncle Clan is right! We should let him stay! We should provide for him like we provide for our ancestors!"
I don't know which of the Yang's children was the first to shout, and then more and more Yang's children nodded in agreement.
At this moment, they felt that they finally understood Yang Xuan's wisdom. Sure enough, an old man in a family is like a treasure. It was this clan uncle who endured humiliation one after another and opened up a glittering road for the Yang family in Jizhou.
But at this moment, voices of opposition suddenly came out.
"No! Absolutely not!"
Yang Sanlang, who was seriously injured, appeared at the door of the ancestral hall.
"The ancestral sword of my Yang family in Jizhou is still in his hand. This is a great shame and humiliation for our Yang family. How could you..."
"The ancestral sword is such a treasure, it should be kept by the virtuous!"
Hearing Yang Sanlang say this, some young Yang family members stood up immediately.
"Since the sword fell into the hands of that strong man, it means that he is a virtuous man, and the sword should belong to him. What is your name here?"
"I……"
Yang Sanlang wanted to say something more, but he was pushed out by several Yang family disciples who were guarding the door, and was locked back in the bedroom, under the pretext of recuperating from his injuries.
The remaining Yang family members started chatting excitedly.
Although it is not a trivial matter for an ancestral sword to be in the hands of an outsider, they are already prepared to enshrine that person as their ancestor, and rounding it off can be regarded as enshrining the sword. As long as the person can stay in Yangjiapu, it doesn't really make any difference. If it doesn't work, just move the clan ancestral hall to another place, which is not unacceptable.
What's more, as that person said before, if the knife is really returned to them, can they pick it up?
It would be better to maintain the current situation. At least the ancestral sword has truly become a fighting force in defending the Yang Family Fort, instead of just being offered on a shelf like before.
"If you think so, that would be great."
Having said this, Yang Xuan couldn't help but look in the direction where Yang Sanlang was dragged away, and let out an inaudible sigh.
But immediately, Yang Xuan calmed down his emotions and showed a solemn expression.
"Now that you understand everything, let's take action."
