Bailang's mind was very clear. He understood that there was a huge element of luck in his position as a swordsman. Not to mention qualifications, it's even worse.
So as soon as Bailang came to power, he took advantage of the oppression of the Xicheng Sword Hall to gather strength and evade the Red Sword. Then seeing that the Kuang family's business income was good, the interests of the middle and lower level combatants in the knife shop won over people.
With these two measures taken and the support of the city lord's palace, Bailang could barely secure his position as the swordsman.
But these two measures are enough in other places, and the rest can be slowly taken root in the future. But this alone is not safe enough in a knife shop. At least not in terms of prestige.
Where does the knife studio’s prestige come from?
If you look at Bailang's journey, you should know that in order to be respected in the knife studio, in addition to being able to make money, you must also be able to kill people. Kill anyone who dares to oppose you.
As for Bailang, as a swordsman, the only thing that openly opposes him is the affairs of the Xicheng Swordsman's Hall across the street. In addition, when Tang Yan was still here, he also suffered a lot from the opponent. Now that the territory has been encroached upon again, this anger is not only felt by Yang Xiuyou, but also by everyone in the Xicheng Knife Hall from top to bottom.
In addition, Bailang also understood that the Xicheng Swordsmanship Hall would not give up after the death of Xiu Qi before. Everything now was just a temptation, and there would always be a thunderous strike. Rather than passively accepting attacks, it is better to take the initiative and strike first. Firstly, to see how strong the opponent is; secondly, it can also disrupt the opponent's arrangement.
Yang Xiu left happily. Be prepared to work out the strategy for the raid as soon as possible. At the same time, speed up the training process of combined attack skills for the middle and upper levels of waist knives.
Early the next morning, Yang Xiu handed the strategy to Bai Lang. From the slightly messy hair, Bai Lang was sure that Yang Xiu had not rested all night and had come up with this strategy overnight.
After looking at it carefully, Bailang asked: "Setting an ambush on Chuanzhu Street, are you sure it won't affect the surrounding area?"
"Don't worry, Zuodao. It's not peaceful at Chuanzhu Street during this period. There are many attacks and killings, and the surrounding merchants have stopped going out. As long as it's early morning or evening, you'll be fine."
Yang Xiu is full of confidence. He was very familiar with the affairs of the knife shop across from him. So I was very confident in my arrangement as soon as I opened my mouth.
"Li Guang seems to be vicious, but he has a very hot temper. He doesn't like to suffer losses, and he insists on never leaving a grudge overnight. We only need to deal with a few of his people on Chuanzhu Street, and there will be a rush to regain the situation soon. Come. Then one more round trip will successfully trigger a large-scale killing spree.
Generally speaking, nine out of ten killings in large battles are caused by this small conflict at the beginning. It will definitely not arouse Li Guang's suspicion.
As soon as Li Guang showed up on Chuanzhu Street, I would use my numerical advantage to surround him. The gray bag opened the way, first disabled their eyes, then threw a rope to catch them, smashed their heads and bloody them, and finally combined the attack skills to surround and annihilate them.
The subordinates estimated that the entire killing process would not take more than one meal. Then you can jump directly over the wall and rush to the nearest Qianfang in the West City. Break open the door, rush in, and burn the place down! "
At the end, Yang Xiu added: "But because Lin Yue has always been the one in Dongcheng, we will ask the sword to restrain Lin Yue when the time comes, otherwise the plan may fail."
Bailang nodded and closed the strategy handed over by Yang Xiu. Said: "Please order three more red knives to add to your plan. Try to shorten the killing time on Chuanzhu Street."
Besides, you said using fire, are there no residents around Qianfang? Can you count the reaction of the City Lord's Mansion? "
"Don't worry, Zuodao. Who dares to live in a smoky place like Qianfang? Even if there was one before, they would have moved away long ago. Wherever the place goes, the land price drops. There is still a big alley around it, and it is burned into a rack. You can't burn it anywhere else. Besides, the designated burns won't be clean. If you can mess up the place, you'll achieve your goal.
If there are three more red swords, the subordinates can try to shorten the killing time in Chuanzhu Street. But I can't guarantee how much it can be shortened. "
Bailang also laughed when he heard this, and said: "Yang Hongdao has seen things thoroughly. Very good. You know more about killing arrangements than me, and you are more experienced. I hope I can win!"
"Don't worry, Zuodao! Three days! Give me another three days, and I will be able to start taking action in the evening after three days."
"Go down and get ready. You are not allowed to leak any information before departure. You must be aware of this."
"My subordinates know!"
There is definitely Lin Yue's eyes and ears in the knife shop. This was evident when Tang Yan was injured. Therefore, Bailang is wary of the attendants in Ma Sheng Alley, and is gradually adjusting them. Currently, he is replacing them one by one. Now, except for the general manager Liu Hu, 80% of the other attendants have been replaced by new ones.
Bailang went home in the evening and passed by a tavern. He looked through the carriage window and saw a black pendant hanging on the canvas sign outside the tavern. If he remembered correctly, the pendant was still a white stone yesterday.
After dinner, he chatted with his brothers and sisters for a while. Late at night, Bailang returned to the house to meditate and practice. In the middle of the night, he jumped over the wall and left the house without disturbing anyone. He used the darkness to hide his whereabouts and returned to the place where he last met Wang. In the small courtyard of Lin's house.
"See Zuo Dao."
"What's the urgent matter?"
"Zu Dao, General Shan replied to the letter. When they heard that we didn't want to talk anymore, they refused directly. After they heard that we didn't want to talk, they immediately cut themselves off and took back more than half of the previous requests. They no longer asked for two berths, but they still hope How many more ships can you share each month?
In addition, their previous idea of getting rid of some yellow and white goods first has not been abandoned, but they are willing not to include this yellow and white goods in the subsequent negotiations, and are willing to use spiritual stones as compensation. A low-grade spiritual stone can take away a boatload of yellow and white goods.
This is definitely a rare high price for a sword! "
Wang Lin was a little surprised. Because the other party is not exchanging a shipload of yellow and white goods for a low-grade spiritual stone, but is willing to take a low-grade spiritual stone as toll for the channel. In addition, the price of yellow and white goods is very serious in the black market. If the toll is so high, does Wang Lin think General Shan and the others can finally get a 20% profit from the transaction?
This matter is urgent, otherwise Wang Lin would not have invited Bailang to have a secret meeting at night.
"Exchanging spiritual stones for yellow and white goods? What does General Shan want to do?" Bai Lang frowned. Although Lingshi and Huangbai also have exchange prices, generally speaking, they have a price but no market. Now that the other party has taken the initiative to use it as tolls, this shows that the other party is indeed not short of spiritual stones. At the same time, he is very eager to deal with the illegal goods in his hand, and is willing to pay more than normal price for this.
After thinking about it, Bai Lang said: "Don't answer them, just keep hanging them up. If they come to you again, just give them the same excuses as before. They seem to be far more anxious than I thought before." Much more.
If they delay a little longer, they might still have something to say. "
"What if it goes wrong?" Wang Lin felt that he had already made a lot of money. Worry about taking off.
"If it's yellow, it's yellow. Although the spirit stone is good, it is not what we urgently need at the moment. General Shan needs to take his time, not rush.
Also, how did you feel about the thieves' copycat thing that I asked you to ask about? "
