As soon as these words came out, the noise at the scene became even louder. Many people couldn't believe what He Lianyun said. Everyone in the world knew that He Lianyun was a idiot. How could such a person be behind the scenes of Famous Sword Villa? What about business manipulators?
Seeing everyone's confusion, He Lianyun sighed and explained: "My brother has been an extremely shrewd person since he was a child. Although he is not good at martial arts, he is very talented in business. The growth of Mingjian Villa over the years is obvious to all. , without the support of huge financial resources, it would not be possible to develop so well, and the business behind all this is run by my brother. He has several confidants, and they control the entire external business of Mingjian Villa.
To the outside world, everyone thinks that those few people are running the business, but in fact the mastermind behind the scenes is my brother He Liancheng.
The top master of Mingjian Villa, He Lianyun, is enough to steal the show. I don't want my younger brother with mediocre martial arts skills to become a business genius in front of everyone. There are countless people and sects who are jealous of Mingjian Villa. Once everyone knows that the financial resources and actual business of Mingjian Villa are in the hands of a person with low martial arts skills, he will definitely be in great danger.
So a long time ago, I asked him to pretend to be a dude outside, so that the threat to him from the outside world would be much smaller. No one would bother to target a loser who is nothing, and want to truly destroy the name. Sword Villa must target me, but my martial arts are very high, so I don’t have to worry about this. "
After a pause, Helianyun continued: "Although my brother looks naughty on the outside, he has always been very upright in his heart and has always united with me. There is no way he would do such a thing."
Having said that, the reason why He Lianyun was a little confused just now was that after listening to Lin Yu's words, he himself was not very confident, because Lin Yu was unlikely to tell lies in front of so many people, and he represented The court openly put this hat on He Liancheng's head. As long as the other party refutes him, there will be no way out.
"Brother, there is no need to argue anymore. Master Lin is right. I have been secretly working for the court these years, and a large part of the income from the family business is turned over to the court every year."
He Liancheng slowly walked out of the door, with a calm and calm expression on his face, which was completely different from his usual look of a playboy.
"Brother cute, huh?"
A sudden sound appeared behind the players, startling everyone. Looking back, the person making the sound was Feng Yan, who had never appeared.
"Don't be like that fool Yaoshui, you bastard, you don't seem to be normal to begin with!" It was Hanawa-san who complained.
"Master, why have you disappeared for so long? Did you arrange all this?"
Ye Du pointed at He Liancheng, who was walking out not far away. He was naturally referring to everything that was happening and reversing in front of him.
The five players and Feng Yan were now in a deserted corner, not far from the Qianshan Gate where the NPCs were confronting each other. Everything that had just happened and the NPCs' conversations fell into their ears word for word. middle.
Feng Yan said: "Don't worry, I've taken care of everything. Now I'll just wait for the plot to end and the copy to be completed. Of course, this is also thanks to your cooperation. On this day, I perfectly convinced Helianyun to adopt Confront the martial arts sect in a non-radical way."
Time goes back to when [The Soul of Play] and Feng Yan were separated in the palace.
Feng Yan: "At this point in the dungeon, the most difficult part is over. I am referring to the battle against Eunuch Li just now, but this is a hard mode dungeon after all. The battle just now can only be regarded as a passing battle. Difficulties, the final main quest has been announced, and I have some thoughts on how to clear this dungeon.”
The spirit of teasing said: "Don't waste too much time communicating with me. I already have part of your mind. I probably know what you think. Do you want me to get close to the emperor?"
Feng Yan snapped his fingers and said: "Yes, I want you to get close to the emperor and find a chance to chat with him alone. The content of the chat will revolve around what I understand to be the end of the martial arts world. Specifically, you have some of my thoughts. , you should probably know, let me give you a core point. I think the curtain call of the Wulin here is to resolve the dispute and let the Mingjian Villa submit to the court, rather than destroying the Mingjian Villa as the current system seems to have always recommended. The curtain call of the Wulin is quite sad. Do you understand the meaning of helplessness? Mingjian Villa is not the prosperous and powerful man we see now, but under the attention of the court day by day, he has become a serious problem and has become an old man. .
If Mingjian Villa fights with various sects, both parties will lose, and the court will have eliminated a major problem, but other than that, it will not get any substantial benefits. If Mingjian Villa can be persuaded to submit to the court, then this [Martial Arts Intelligence] 】 All the business of Mingjian Villa written in it can give a large part to the court. The setting of Mingjian Villa is so rich that the country can't be rivaled. A large part of the business is absolutely impossible for the court to refuse.
This can not only resolve conflicts, but also give a deep impression to the majority of martial arts sects and the entire martial arts community, that is, never go against the imperial court, and do not blindly think that the development of martial arts will be in harmony with the imperial court. It's absolutely impossible. "
After saying that, Feng Yan stopped, and the soul of the drama was silent for a long time and said: "Is this the real meaning of the martial arts curtain call?"
Feng Yan smiled and said: "This copy is to depict the fall of an era. The fall of this era is the curtain call of the martial arts world. Let the martial arts world truly come to a close. There will be 'jianghu' in the future, but there will be no 'jianghu' anymore. .”
The Soul of Taunting: "The Emperor's head should be very easy to use. I will definitely agree with what you say, but how easy is it for you to get Mingjian Villa to submit to the imperial court?"
Feng Yan said: "Have you ever thought that He Lianyun, the owner of Mingjian Villa, is a famous martial arts fanatic. He is usually obsessed with practicing martial arts. Will he have time to run the business of the Villa? This requires a lot of time, and He is not a very close person, and it is impossible for him to entrust everything to him.”
The Soul of Taunting: "You mean He Liancheng?"
Feng Yan snapped his fingers: "Yes, the [Martial Arts Intelligence] said that He Liancheng was a loser, a dandy, but I think He Liancheng is most likely faking it, and he is the only one who controls the business behind the scenes. I am going to meet this person. If he can really secretly control the business of Mingjian Villa for so many years under the eyes of the entire martial arts world and the imperial court, then his mind and the city will be quite scary.
In the same way, if he is really such a person, I will persuade him to surrender to the imperial court. I believe that he can choose the right direction between the destruction of the family's great business and the surrender of the imperial court, especially since He Liancheng is set to be a brain. Martial arts are advanced but not very good. As a businessman, what matters more is how much money you can make, how much money you can continue to make, and how long you can continue to make money safely and worry-free. Of course, the most important thing is the rise and fall of the family and the disputes in the martial arts world. And status, I believe it is not that important to him.
Then you just need to convince the emperor to agree with our idea later. You can tell him our guess about He Liancheng... No, just say that He Liancheng is the businessman behind the scenes, and we have already convinced him. , then let the people in the court cooperate and give Mingjian Villa a hat in front of all the martial arts sects and people in the world, and then tell him that this is what He Liancheng meant. "
The Soul of Taunting nodded: "I understand, our idea should be to correctly complete the main task."
Feng Yan said: "The Emperor has no reason to disagree. Although he was forced to listen to you because of your hostage, under such great interests, he will consider it carefully."
Later, Feng Yan let the [Dark Gold Ghost Bat] fly towards the burning Cuixia Palace, and successfully found the emperor who was rushing towards him with his high-altitude vision. [The Soul of Play] had all the strength of Feng Yan, and was in the palace. Although Zhong is not a supreme master, it is no problem to hold him hostage in an instant.
Then he held the emperor [Soul of Play] hostage and told him the general meaning of Feng Yan just now. As the head of a country, the emperor knew everything about it. He instantly felt that what the guy in front of him said was so right, and he drew it up at the moment. One plan is to send Lin Yu and Zhao Zhan to the Jianshanzhuang platform with great fanfare. After [Dark Gold Ghost Bat] returns to Feng Yan and gives all the content of the dialogue between the Soul of Trouble and the Emperor, Feng Yan organizes his thoughts. Perfectly convinced He Liancheng.
After the emperor heard these words, the spirit of teasing would naturally be at ease. He only needed to act as a messenger for He Liancheng. Anyway, he would disappear after the copy was over. You can deal with him no matter what.
…
After listening to Feng Yan's explanation, Wuying said: "Brother Yan's understanding of the dungeon is really unique. From what you said, it seems that the dungeon should be over, and the direction should be okay."
Sure enough, as soon as Wuying finished speaking, the system prompt appeared.
[The main mission has been completed, and you will be sent back to the landing space after watching the ending]
Hanawa said: "This copy has a rather sad meaning in it. According to the arrangement you gave them, Helian Yun will either commit suicide or go into seclusion later."
Feng Yan nodded and said: "I think the probability of going into seclusion is higher. He still has three good friends who can accompany him. It's not a bad ending."
Liu Zheng said: "When did you talk to He Liancheng?"
Feng Yan: "I arrived at Mingjian Villa yesterday morning. What's worth mentioning is that He Liancheng actually had the same idea as me. It's just that he didn't have the opportunity or connections to meet the emperor. He knew very well that he wanted to resolve this incident. In a crisis, he could only choose to form an alliance with the imperial court...or surrender to the imperial court. So my arrival undoubtedly helped him a lot. He agreed immediately after hearing my arrangement. He would only come forward if someone from the imperial court came forward. Yes, he has no reason not to believe me."
Fat Tiger said: "Master, you arrived yesterday morning, why didn't you meet us?"
Feng Yan said: "When did you teach me a lesson about Taoism? You don't care about me."
Ye Du said: "Master, you won't do anything sexy again, will you?"
Feng Yan glanced at him and said, "I'll tell you later."
He Liancheng walked slowly to He Lianyun in front of the villa, smiled and said loudly: "My eldest brother is right, in order to prevent the famous sword villa from showing too much power, he and I have agreed since childhood that my eldest brother will erect it alone. I have the image of a master and a think tank, while I pretend to be a playboy. This is because my eldest brother is trying to protect me. I have been helping the court behind his back, and he doesn’t even know.”
As soon as these words came out, the people in the arena finally couldn't help but started to curse. They didn't dare to curse Jianshan Villa or the imperial court. He Lianyun was a really good character and wouldn't scold him, but Mingjian Villa did collude with the imperial court. The person who colluded was He Liancheng, and he finally found someone he could scold.
Helian Yun shook his head and said, "You are not such a person."
He Liancheng ignored the abuse everywhere and still smiled and whispered to He Lianyun: "Brother, these words from you are worth everything. I have already contacted the people in the court secretly, and I promise them to become famous swordsmen from now on." The Villa submitted to the imperial court and gave 70% of its business profits to the imperial court. In exchange, the imperial court stepped in to help us resolve the crisis. At this juncture, if we do not do this, Mingjian Villa will inevitably be destroyed. I will not allow this. situation happens, and I don’t want you to have any accidents in this dispute.”
He Lianyun said: "My name, Jianshan Villa, is not a person who is greedy for life and afraid of death. Even if I am destroyed, I will compete with these thieves."
He Liancheng raised his voice seriously and said: "Brother! At this time, you still can't see the current situation clearly? Mingjian Villa has developed so powerfully that it is a thorn in the side of the imperial court. All of this was planned by the imperial court. In front of you, These guys want to annex our villa because we are too powerful. Even without the intervention of the court, it will be a matter of time before they unite to deal with us. By then, lives will still be devastated and many innocent people will die.
This is not their fault, nor our fault, it is the fault of this world and all the bonds created by interests. What we have to do now is to resolve the dispute and prevent our brothers and these innocent disciples from being injured or killed.
Why must people die? "
Helian Yun was silent for a moment and said: "I can't bear the infamy of Mingjian Villa just to avoid casualties."
He Liancheng shook his head: "Brother, you won't bear infamy, and neither will Mingjian Villa. Over the years, Mingjian Villa has been philanthropic and has trained many masters in the martial arts. This is obvious to all. People in the martial arts and the imperial court are at odds with each other. , this is an unchangeable fact. The reason why they are scolding me now is temporary, and most of them are directed at me.
When they understand that Mingjian Villa and Mingjian Villa's business are actually two different things, they will no longer curse Mingjian Villa and you. Sooner or later, they will figure this issue out. The business of my Mingjian Villa is transformed from the reputation accumulated over the years. What does it have to do with the martial arts, and what does it have to do with the world?
Brother, business is business, don’t talk about other things. As long as we can achieve win-win cooperation without losing the bottom line, what business can’t be done? We have never done business with foreign vassals, nor can we talk about betraying the country for profit. Now we have a business with the imperial court. Giving 70% of the profits to the imperial court will not only protect the Mingjian Villa, but also continue to be protected by the imperial court. Under the protection of the imperial court, our business will grow bigger and bigger, and even lead the entire country to become rich and powerful. What's wrong with that? "
Seeing He Lianyun's expression changing constantly, He Liancheng continued: "Brother, if the court wants to govern the entire country, it is inevitable to have entanglements and conflicts with martial arts sects and people. This kind of grudges cannot be eliminated by any dynasty. We As long as the pattern is large enough, it is completely possible to figure it out. Even if I have been doing business with the imperial court before, there is no collusion, right?"
"Brother, think about it carefully. Over the years, the emperor has worked hard to make our country rich and powerful. General Zhao led the soldiers to fight back many armies through life and death. I really don't see any conflict between the imperial court and our martial arts. If it is just because I am the dominant one in Mingjian Villa, If I arouse the fear of the imperial court and the emperor, then I, He Liancheng, am willing to surrender to the imperial court in exchange for the emperor's peace of mind, and I only want the peace of the country and the people."
Liu Zheng smiled when he heard this and said: "This guy's setting is really interesting. I guess Helianyun should compromise now."
Sure enough, He Lianyun heard He Liancheng's last few words with a very decisive look on his face and said: "You have suffered a lot over the years, but the world is not a business, the world is the world, and it cannot be compared with your ideas and plans. If you mix things up, I can only choose to retreat into the world and live in seclusion with my three brothers. There is no way I can continue to protect you, brother."
He Liancheng seemed to have heard the answer he already knew. He smiled calmly and said: "Brother, the imperial court will protect me from now on. You don't have to worry. I will bear the infamy alone. Brother, you can go back to the countryside and roam around as you like. Leave the whole family to me."
Helianyun pondered for a long time and said, "It seems that you have already realized it."
He Liancheng said firmly: "Brother, you and I will both be a speck of dust in the torrent of history. Don't think too much. Live in the present moment. A century-old foundation cannot be destroyed in your hands. There is not much we can do. That's it. As for right and wrong, you and I have already made a difference in our hearts, so why should we care about other people's opinions?"
When Helian Yun heard the last sentence, "Why care about other people's opinions," he seemed to realize: "I understand."
At this time, everyone's eyes went dark, and the next second they switched to God's perspective, and a paradise-like scene appeared in the screen. It was a small village with mountains and water, and peach blossoms blooming ten miles away. Helian Yun The four of them, Yue Wuhen, Chu Muran and Bai Yexin, were sitting at a square table with wine and food on it.
The four of them were talking, laughing and drinking, creating a picture of a beautiful life.
