Chapter 2353 2355 [A centipede insect, dead but not stiff]
?Subsequently, through the mouths of the Beggar Clan disciples all over the world, the news that Xiang Nan held a secret book trade fair on the first and fifteenth day of every month spread to the ears of all sects and heroes in the world.
After hearing this news, many people were quite moved.
?Although people in the world advocate benevolence, righteousness and morality, and even thieves and robbers claim that thieves are also moral, but when it comes to breaking the heavens, fists are the only justice.
Shaolin Temple, Wudang Sect, Emei Sect, Kongtong Sect, Qingcheng Sect, etc. are called famous and decent sects mainly because they are strong enough.
Otherwise, no matter how much you flaunt your benevolence and righteousness, if your strength is not up to par, you will only become a laughing stock.
As for the Five Poison Sect, Tiancan Sect, Feidao Sect and other evil sects, they advocate the law of respecting the strong and survival of the fittest.
?Hence, martial arts secrets that can improve one''s own strength are very demanding for everyone in the martial arts world.
Not to mention them, even though the Five Ultimate Martial Arts have reached their peak, they are still interested in the "Nine Yin Manual", fighting over it and starting a series of fights.
??However, martial arts secrets are not so easy to obtain. Especially the more top-notch martial arts secrets, the rarer they are.
Unless you are a famous sect, an elite disciple, or have profound blessings, you will not be able to inherit it at all.
?For example, the Duan family’s unique skill of Yiyang Finger could only be passed down to the Duan family’s children. No matter how much I want to learn other surnames, I can''t even think of it.
?For example, when the Xiaoyao sect recruits disciples, they must be smart, handsome, talented, and not ugly at all.
The key point is that this sect’s whereabouts are so secretive that they don’t even want outsiders to know the name of the sect. It’s almost impossible to get into its sect.
?So Xiang Nan is now holding a cheat trading fair. As long as you have money or secrets, you can come and exchange them with him. The threshold was already very low. Naturally, a large number of martial arts people soon rushed to Qixia Town.
I''m afraid that if you are quick, you will lose it, but if you are slow, you will lose it.
…
During this period, Qixia Town Yamen also received official documents from the court.
?Dongchangchang Gong Cao Jixiang has been dismissed, and the case of selling his official position and conferring a title has been concluded.
Six Doors was a great success, and its popularity once overshadowed that of Dongchang and Jinyiwei.
??Lou Zhixian will also receive an imperial edict for his merits in investigating the case, which makes him happy and his beard will stand up.
“My dear nephew, thank you,” Lou Zhixian said gratefully to Xiang Nan, stroking his beard.
"You''re welcome, uncle, it''s all what I should do." Xiang Nan smiled and said, "By the way, you have made such a great contribution this time, isn''t it your turn to be promoted?"
"Hey, don''t think too much about this kind of thing. Thunder, rain and dew are all your kindness." Lou Zhixian waved his hands and smiled, "No matter whether the court promotes me or not, I will serve as an official and benefit the country. I just have to have a clear conscience. "
"Uncle, what you said is so good." Xiang Nan said with a smile when he heard it.
Actually, he didn’t want Magistrate Lou to leave either.
After all, there are not many good officials like him in the world who are upright, honest, and forget their own interests. If there is another corrupt official who is corrupt, bends the law, and is only interested in profit, then the people of Qixia Town will suffer.
…
“Xiaomi, come on, come on, please sit down, please sit down. This is the dish I cooked myself, and the wine is Xinghua Village’s authentic Fenjiu.” Xiang Nan invited Xiaomi to have a meal.
“Big mouth, what are you doing? I’ve done everything you asked me to do for you.” Seeing this, Xiaomi asked warily.
"Hey, why are you so worried? If I want to harm you, why would I go to such trouble?" Xiang Nan curled his lips and said, "Sit down, I just want to ask you about the names of heroes from all walks of life and sects in the world. Just a message."
?Although he is at the top of the world, he is still unfamiliar with it. What sects are there in this world, who are the people in the sect, what martial arts are there, how many heroes there are, where did the heroes learn from, what are their special skills...
??He didn''t know any of this, and his eyes darkened. He saw that the trade fair was going to be held soon. When the time came, all the heroes from different sects would arrive, but he didn''t know any of them. If he made a confusing transaction, he would suffer a big loss.
"Oh, you told me earlier, you scared me." When Xiaomi heard this, he breathed a sigh of relief, sat down immediately, and said proudly, "I''m not bragging to you, if anyone in the world is well-informed, except for the imperial court , it belongs to our beggar gang.”
Xiang Nan nodded.
He chose to cooperate with the beggar gang for this reason.
?Although the Beggar Clan is not as good as it was at its peak, it is still a centipede, dead but not stiff. Just relying on its hundreds of thousands of gang members all over the world, it is still the largest gang in the world.
??Moreover, there are one hundred thousand Beggar Clan disciples all over the world, so they are naturally well-informed.
In "Wulin Gaiden", Xiaomi is the most important source of information besides Lao Xing and Yan Xiaoliu. During the Huashan Sword Discussing, he was the first to tell everyone about the plot against the three major sects by Yue Songtao.
He actually knows much better than Lao Xing and Yan Xiaoliu about the big and small things in the world.
"Then just tell me." Xiang Nan smiled and said, "When I make money later, I will give you 10% of the money."
“Really?!” Xiaomi’s eyes lit up, “Okay, then I’ll tell you.”
He had already guessed that the reason why Xiang Nan inquired about this information was to know himself and the enemy so that he could get the maximum benefit from the transaction, so he naturally wanted to get a share of the pie.
Unexpectedly, Xiang Nan took the initiative to mention it before he mentioned it, which made him feel that it was very cost-effective to cooperate with Xiang Nan.
Immediately, Xiaomi told Xiang Nan information about the various sects and heroes in the world, including the composition of the personnel, special skills, martial arts skills, relationships in the world, personality habits, etc.
Xiang Nan listened and nodded, adding a lot of information.
…
The next day, the first wave of people from the world of martial arts who got closer had arrived at Qixia Town.
?However, the trading days on the first and fifteenth day of the lunar month have not yet arrived, so they can only stay at Tongfu Inn and wait.
In addition, they also had to eat and drink, so Xiang Nan brought a lot of business to Tongfu Inn invisibly.
??Xiaomi, who was guarding outside the inn, had a clear view of these people in the world. Then he told Xiang Nan all their specific information.
Xiang Nan was naturally happy when he heard this.
??He originally liked Xiaomi''s well-informed nature, so he invited him to cooperate. Now it seems that this chess piece was used just right.
Information is money, information is life, it is true.
Another two days passed, and finally it was the first day of the Lunar New Year, the trading day.
Xiang Nan reserved a private room at Tongfu Inn early, and then invited heroes from all walks of life to come in one after another to trade.
“Da Xia Li, this is Wang Zhenshan, the head of the Ganzhou Zhenwei Escort Bureau. I have specially prepared five hundred taels of silver. I hope Da Xia Li can sell me a secret book.” Wang Zhenshan said respectfully.
“Five hundred taels of silver?!” Xiang Nan frowned.
?Five hundred taels of silver is really too little. Ip Man learned Wing Chun from Chen Hua Shun, but it cost him thirteen taels of gold.
"Wang Biaotou, with five hundred taels of silver, he can at most learn Luohan Fist, Tongjiquan, and Hong Fist. It is impossible to get high-level secrets." Xiang Nan curled his lips and said, "If you want to learn high-level secrets, at least It also costs five thousand taels of silver.”
“Yes, I once got a sword manual by chance, but it was incomplete. Do you think you can get some money for it?” Wang Zhenshan took out a yellowed sword manual from his arms and said.
