Beginning from the world of Uncle Jiu, he tricked his master into enlightening him.

Chapter 124 Expansion Plan
After Lin Cheng returned to Yizhuang, he first reported the situation to Uncle Jiu.

"That's pretty much it. Master doesn't want to come back with me."

"I gave him a sum of money so that he could stay at the dojo safely."

After hearing the whole story, Uncle Jiu sighed and said:
"You've been so obsessed with saving face all your life, can't you figure out how many pounds you have?"

Having said this, Uncle Jiu paused and continued:

"Aqiang is very talented in martial arts. I, Mao Shanqiang, am talented in martial arts and have no corresponding accumulation in martial arts."

"I'm going to go to Daoyuan Pavilion to find a way for him to enter Taoism through martial arts."

I have to say that Uncle Jiu has true love for Mamadi.

After knowing that Mamadi refused to come here, he planned to train his disciples with all his strength.

You know, a trip to Daoyuan Pavilion is not cheap, and it is even more expensive to buy a copy of the exercises from Daoyuan Pavilion.

The starting price is 20 merit points.

Thanks to the booming Ming Coin business during this period, Uncle Jiu has indeed earned a lot of merit, but he can't bear to spend it like this.

When Lin Cheng heard this, he nodded first, and then asked curiously:

"Master, can anyone really enter Taoism through martial arts?"

Lin Cheng didn't know much about this aspect.

He knew that there was martial arts in this world, but he had never seen anyone who entered the martial arts through martial arts.

Lin Cheng originally thought that the martial arts in this world could only reach the level of Ip Man, that is, one can fight ten.

Just like the Four Guards.

Uncle Jiu heard this and explained softly:

"Martial arts and cultivation are the mainstream methods of cultivation in the world."

"Since the aura of the world began to dry up, that is, after the Age of Ending Law, both of them have been affected to varying degrees."

"And its influence on martial arts far exceeds cultivation."

Lin Cheng asked Uncle Jiu curiously:
"why?"

It is also the depletion of spiritual energy, so why should it have a greater impact on martial arts?

Uncle Jiu thought for a while and then continued:
"The path of martial arts requires one to be brave and diligent, and to be happy with one's grudges."

"That's why most people who practice martial arts have bad tempers. They often fight with swords, and it's common for them to have their hands and feet broken off."

"This is not a problem at all. The path to martial arts is to improve through battles and even life-and-death battles."

"In the past, with a large number of heavenly materials and earthly treasures as backing, warriors could use force and fight at will."

"But in the Age of Ending Dharma, the spiritual energy is exhausted, and the output of heavenly materials and earthly treasures is not as good as before."

"Without the treasures of heaven and earth, a large number of warriors were seriously injured and died, which caused the rapid decline of martial arts."

Lin Cheng suddenly realized that the root cause was here.

To put it simply, people who practice martial arts are a bunch of reckless people, and roaring when they see injustice is their standard action.

Because fights often occur, people who practice martial arts rely more on the treasures of heaven and earth than those who practice law.

Some people may say that since there are no natural resources or earthly treasures, why don’t we fight less and practice martial arts calmly together?
In fact, it really doesn't work.

The core of martial arts is competition and fighting.

Without the desire to be strong and competitive, no matter how hard you practice, you will always be a third-rate person.

Therefore, in the age of the end of Dharma, martial arts declined faster than cultivation.

You can practice law calmly in the mountains, but martial arts is not good. If you don't accept it, just do it is the motto of every martial artist.

However, although martial arts declined, it did not completely disappear.

In the subsequent conversation, Lin Cheng heard Uncle Jiu say that in the land of China, most people who are successful in martial arts are gathered in Shanghai.

The existing resources in China are only enough to support the development of martial arts in a place like Shanghai.

Despite the decline of martial arts, a group of martial arts masters have emerged in Shanghai in recent years.

They are very powerful, and the strongest ones can even rival the Heavenly Master!
This news actually made Lin Cheng more interested in Shanghai.

He had previously arranged eight county magistrates, one of which was the PD District in Shanghai. Well, strictly speaking, he should be called the district magistrate.

With the support of Lin Cheng's large amount of money, the district chief's development in Shanghai was pretty good.

At least it has established a firm foothold and has a certain influence in Shanghai.

It was through his matchmaking that Lin Chengcai was able to cooperate with local forces and prepare to open Sitong Bank.After discussing with Uncle Jiu, Lin Chengcheng returned to Ren Mansion. After paying his wife the public rations, he summoned Captain Ah Wei feeling refreshed.

Lin Cheng now has four teams under his command. In addition to being the captain of the third team, Ah Wei is also responsible for recruiting reserve team members.

Lin Cheng came to him because he wanted to discuss with him the expansion of the escort team.

Shanghai is the economic and cultural center of the entire Chinese region. If you want to gain a foothold there and expand the Mingbi business, you must have enough force to lay the groundwork.

Therefore, Lin Cheng felt that it was time to expand the escort team.

Lin Cheng decided to expand enrollment by 8000 people at one time!
After this group of people is trained, he will send them to various counties to strengthen the security of Temple City Street.

Among them, he plans to send 3000 people to Shanghai alone.

Shanghai is a hard bone, but as long as you can bite the bone, you can suck out a lot of marrow.

Lin Cheng was determined to crack this difficult bone even if his front teeth were knocked out!

Ah Wei didn't let Lin Cheng wait any longer, and quickly arrived at Ren's house, nodding and bowing, waiting for Lin Cheng's instructions.

During this period of time, Ah Wei admired Lin Cheng.

Under Lin Cheng's series of operations, the size of Renjia Town more than doubled.

Moreover, a large number of people come to Renjia Town to settle down every day, and the local residents of Renjia Town also benefit from it.

Wasteland that was originally worthless can be sold for sky-high prices.

Ah Wei also followed and made a small fortune.

Therefore, the local residents of Renjia Town have formed a tacit understanding. They will resolutely support whatever Lin Cheng proposes, and resolutely fight against anything Lin Cheng opposes.

Anyway, you are right to follow Lin Cheng. If you follow Lin Cheng, you will have meat to eat!
Seeing Ah Wei's fanatical eyes, Lin Cheng was a little amused. He motioned for him to relax before speaking out his thoughts.

After hearing this, Ah Wei fell into deep thought for a long time.

Lin Cheng also knew that it would be difficult to expand enrollment by 8000 people at one time.

After all, the entire Renjia Town only has a population of over 20.

Well, what we are talking about here is the entire Renjia Town, including all the villages to which Renjia Town belongs.

There are only about 8 residents actually living in the town.

This is already prosperous enough, and many counties cannot reach this level.

The reason why Lin Cheng asked Awei to be responsible for the recruitment work was because he was the local leader of Renjia Town, with the most contacts and the most clever ideas.

It would be most suitable for him to recruit people.

After Awei thought for a while, he said:

"Boss, based on the situation in Renjia Town, I estimate that at most 3000 people will sign up voluntarily. If there are 8000 people, we may only have to recruit them by force."

Ah Wei has never been a good person, he doesn't care about the life and death of the people at all.

Lin Cheng shook his head and refused after hearing this. He didn't want to rebel. At most, he just wanted to set up a security company.

How can you do such a thing as pulling a young man?

Ah Wei frowned and thought for a while, then said:
"If that's the case, we'll have to choose from among the prisoners."

prisoner?

Lin Cheng was stunned when he heard this. Can these people use it?

Ah Wei understood what Lin Cheng meant and took the initiative to explain:
"Boss, in fact, there are many people everywhere who cannot pay taxes and are arrested."

"Most of them are strong and very good soldiers."

"And he is also loyal and honest, and will almost never betray."

Lin Cheng nodded suddenly.

He still had some understanding of the situation Ah Wei mentioned.

In this troubled world, all kinds of exorbitant taxes and levies are too numerous to count.

Moreover, warlords from all walks of life are replaced faster than cuckolds. The new officials ignore the old affairs, and they will not care about the taxes that the previous one has already collected after 90 years.

Taxes will only be collected under various names.

As a result, a large number of "unruly people" who cannot pay taxes have emerged.

In order to scare the monkeys, a large number of "tricksters" are arrested every year and starve to death in prisons.

These people are a ready source of troops.
