"Mr. Murong, you're welcome." Huo Ming thought for a moment, then took the words from Murong Shu, cupped his fists and returned the greeting, "I've heard about Mr.'s name for a long time, and when I saw him today, he really has extraordinary bearing, and I can get to know Mr. It's really a blessing for Huo to meet each other."
After he saluted, he put down his hands slowly and continued: "As for what Mr. Huo just said about 'nuisance'... Huo is not talented. Just a few words."
When he said this, he paused, raised his eyes and glanced around, and then said: "Although our Cangzhou is not as prosperous as Jiangnan or the capital, we have to talk about it. If the trend of martial arts arises, we will do our part here.
“Huo dare not say all of you here today, but I believe that most of them are knowledgeable people who understand reason and understand the general situation... …Of course there is still some tolerance and hospitality.
"If Mr. Murong wants to say something or do something, you can speak out.
"Both of us, including everyone here...should have discussions. Measure, never hurt the harmony. ”
As soon as he said this, the surrounding spectators nodded and whispered in agreement. The noise that Murong Shu had just suppressed suddenly rose back a little, and the atmosphere at the scene also relaxed a lot. Less.
How can I say that Master Huo can build a top ten martial arts sect in just twenty years?
p>Compared with Murong Shu's domineering attack just now, Huo Ming's words were obviously gentler, but his control effect was undoubtedly better - not only did he perfectly catch Murong Shu's The words he came over also calmed down the innate hostility of many people here towards Murong Shu, an outsider, and all he used were just a few empty words like "knowing the general body and being able to tolerate people". .
As for his last sentence of "no harm to the peace", it can be said that he set the tone he expected at the beginning of this negotiation, and now it is up to Murong Shu to accept it.
“Oh? After hearing Huo Ming's first words, Murong Shu immediately thought to himself, "What a Huo Ming. He is not only the king of fists, but also a hero among men... I thought this negotiation wouldn't be too difficult. After all, with the current power of our Murong family, even if we finally make a few steps and give some benefits to these local sects to open the way, this matter can still be done... But I think this leader Huo may not be able to do it with money. My Lord, if he wants to fight with me for this hosting right, it’s really hard to say..."
Huo Ming also didn’t expect that his side would become more grand and kind...Murong Shu On the other hand, they feel that the negotiation is more and more difficult.
If Shao Dejin were to come forward to negotiate on behalf of Cangzhou Wulin, the process would probably be: Shao Dejin would say a few polite words when he opened his mouth, and then He immediately started haggling in a roundabout way, and then came up with a clever plan. The essence of this plan was to ask the Murong family to pay a small amount of "undertaken fee." After the fee was confirmed, Lao Shao would get 50% of it himself. Kickbacks on the left and right, and the rest will be divided.If it is given to other local sects, then this matter will be over.
Murong Shu is not afraid of this kind of development, and is even happy to see it... Because for the current Murong family, money is a relatively cheap resource. You and him Talking about money is simplifying things.
But what is Huo Ming talking about now? He doesn't talk to you about "Dao Le" at all, but talks about "Tao" with you, "gets acquainted" and "discusses with you"... This is complicated.
In those few seconds, Murong Shu's mind was running rapidly and he thought a lot before he replied: "Master Huo is not only a hero, but also a gentleman. I admire him." He also First use a compliment to cushion the blow, and then go on to talk about the matter, "According to what you said, since all of you here are heroes and heroes with knowledge and reason, then I will not tell lies in front of real people, and tell everyone a few words from my heart. ..."
He paused for a moment when he got here. He looked around first, then spoke seriously and loudly: "I miss the ups and downs of my Murong family, and the inheritance of hundreds of years. I don’t dare to consider myself a pillar of the martial arts world, but over the years, I have definitely made no contributions... I won’t mention the ones that are too far away. Let’s just say that the last time my Murong family was almost wiped out, it was the time I worked for him more than fifty years ago. It is caused by the Central Plains martial arts resisting the foreign enemy 'Wanyuan Sect'... I think all of you comrades here know a little bit about this matter..."
There is nothing wrong with what Murong Shu said. These people here are indeed Only 10% to 20% of people have heard of this matter, and many of them have heard it from their parents or even grandparents. As for the specific circumstances of this matter, only 10% to 20% of them know about it. , which can be regarded as a veritable "know a thing or two".
But...even if Murong Shu made the Wanyuan Sect take the initiative to come to their house for surgery, as if they jumped out of the first barrier of the Central Plains Wulin, you cannot deny that they are indeed doing it for the Central Plains Wulin. He became a shield and bought some time and information for his martial arts colleagues, and also paid a very heavy price (in that incident, Murong Shu's predecessors died out of more than ten people, and only two people were left, and One is still disabled, and of course both of them are now dead. It can be said that the Murong family did not recover until Murong Ji's generation, so that it was in a state of decline for more than forty years.
Therefore, it is completely valid for Murong Shu to start with these words and give the Murong family a persona of "we have shed blood for the martial arts in the Central Plains."
"In the past few decades, although our Murong family has been in decline, we have never complained about others, nor have we done anything harmful to the martial arts. Until ten years ago, I cooperated with others to establish 'Huanyige', revitalized the family business, and achieved today's situation..."
In this paragraph, Murong Shu is very cheesy about how to "cooperate" with the civil servant group of the imperial court. "Things were dealt with in one stroke.
However, he also knew that this topic could not be avoided, so he then used this to talk about the matter: "I understand that many people nowadays think that we MurongThe family is involved in the officialdom and is no longer a pure martial arts family. I understand that no matter how much I explain, I won't be able to convince everyone.
"Therefore, I am bold and hope that by hosting the next Young Heroes Association, I can once again contribute my modest efforts to the martial arts world and show all my comrades through actions that I, the Murong family, are still the heroes of this martial arts world with everyone. ”
His tone is a bit high, but it is indeed necessary. Anyway, he first puts his motive for doing this to a high level of morality that cannot be verified or falsified by others. It would be much easier to talk about other things on the ground... Even if the conversation didn't end, he would still be invincible.
Of course, negotiations cannot just be high-profile. After the negotiation is over, you still have to land again before you can move forward.
Therefore, Murong Shu's next paragraph returned to this "place": "The reason why I decided to hold the conference in Cangzhou is because it is adjacent to the Bohai Sea in the east and Beijing in the north. Tianjin, with its flat plains and four distinct seasons... is a heroic land with outstanding people and beautiful scenery. I have no other ideas, and it is impossible to be disrespectful to the local heroes..."
That's it. At the same time, Murong Shu looked at Huo Ming again: "Now that we have talked about everything today and it has come to this point, I might as well speak frankly... If it is the head of Huo or the heroes here, to me and to the Murong family ... If you have any misunderstandings, or any opinions or conditions regarding our hosting of the Young Heroes Association... you can raise them and I will respond to them one by one without any ambiguity."
The words are unambiguous. After landing, everyone present started talking again. Many of them were actually a little convinced by Murong Shu, because the words of the head of the Murong family at least sounded sincere.
Of course, their opinions are not very important. There are many people who are also on the fence, but they are just a little bit resistant to "outsiders" taking over this matter. Do you really want the Baquan Sect to come? No matter what, they are not happy about it.
So in the end, the person who can really speak and should speak is still Huo Ming, or the Baquan Sect; after all, the reason for today's negotiation is that the Baquan Sect wants to "fight" for the hosting right. , Huo Mingsong didn't let go, that was the key.
And what is Huo Ming's state of mind at the moment?
Let's put it this way...he was ready to pop the champagne at halftime.
According to Huo Ming's intention, he only needs to say a few more words like "So that's it, Huo misunderstood you", "Of course Huo believes in Mr. Murong, I'll leave this matter to you." Don’t worry.” “Mr. Murong is a kindhearted man who has dedicated his whole life to the martial arts world. If anyone dares to make things difficult for you, you will be in trouble with my Baquan Sect.” If this is the case, then you can fast forward to the scene where everyone has a meal together. The link is over.
But who would have known that just when Huo Ming was about to follow this path...
"Since Mr. Murong said that if you have any questions, you can raise them as you please, so I am brave enough to do it." This is the last question." A very distinctive voice suddenly sounded..
Swish, swish, swish, everyone's eyes were instantly attracted to him. When they saw this person, who could it be if it wasn't Sun Yixie?
Others may consider it abrupt or overestimating what others say, but when this "Eastern Harmony" speaks, no one should take it seriously.
When Brother Sun said these words, Murong Shu was already convinced that Shuangxie was a member of the Ba Fist Sect, and secretly sighed: It seems that compared to my son, he is still that good. Huo Ming's close disciple Lei Buji has a strong friendship with these two brothers.
But on the other side, Huo Ming was caught in doubt. He thought to himself: Aren't you "Eastern Harmony and Western Poison" invited by Murong Shu? As for Murong Shu's words...I didn't mention anything, so what question do you two ask? Did I misunderstand something?
So, Sun and Huang came over to watch the fun, how could they be singing?
This has to go back to a moment ago, when Murong Shu had not finished speaking...
At that time, Sun Huang only listened to the beginning of Murong Shu's entire paragraph. , they already knew that what followed was almost exactly what they had predicted in advance.
However, the two of them did not know about the debt in Huo Ming's heart, and could not calculate it. Therefore, from the perspective of Shuangxiong, the next step is "Huo Ming's turn", and then both sides All kinds of scrambling and pulling will begin.
Then they don’t have to wait for Master Huo to say anything else, they can just start implementing the strategy they just decided.
"Hey, hey, Master Shao, do you think the head of the Murong family is exaggerating a little too much?" Sun Yixie turned his head sideways while Murong Shu was speaking. On the other hand, he whispered to Shao Dejin, who was not far away from him, "Who hasn't made some contribution to the martial arts? They were obviously beaten by others, but they only survived in the end, and yet they can boast as if they did it themselves. It's the same thing. Those who don't know think that it was not Wudang who drove away the Wanyuan Sect, but them."
At this moment, Shao Dejin basically treated Sun and Huang, especially Sun Yixie. There was nothing to be wary about anymore, because after Sun Huang persuaded Shao Dejin and the abbot to leave, Sun Yixie immediately launched a series of flattery and friendship offensives against Shao Dejin...
Brother Sun was not only in front of Shao Dejin He scolded the abbot for his words and deeds on the spot, and told Clan Master Shao not to be like this kind of person. He also said that thanks to Clan Master Shao's reminder, he must be wary of Lin Yuancheng in the future.
Then, in order not to be suspected by the other party because of his excessive enthusiasm, Sun Yixie left for the time being and went back to chat with Huang Donglai and Lei Buji.
But after a while, when it was time to choose a seat, Sun Yixie deliberately sat next to Shao Dejin, whispering to him from time to time, as if he was very familiar with him.
As we said before, the double harmony is the focus of the audience. After Brother Sun's operation, Shao Dejin also got the benefit of the money.
People like Lao Shao are quite affected by the "admired" looks around him and Brother Sun's fishmonger-level flattery.After using it, he soon became a little dissatisfied, and he also quickly developed some affection for Sun Yixie.
At the moment, Sun Yixie quietly handed Murong Shu such a sentence while he was speaking. Shao Dejin, who was already a little carried away, did not act and responded directly: "Huh, isn't it... this If he is just trying to gain fame and put money on his face, it’s not like he said it so righteously.”
“That’s right, if you ask me... these are all false, don’t they just have some bad money. What's the point of doing business now? Those sects didn't have that much money in the past, so wouldn't the Young Heroes be able to do it together?" Sun Yixie then said, "In the end, we People in the martial arts world don't rely on their strength to speak in the end? I'll ask him soon and tell them not to push, and let's see if they dare."
"Hiss——" Shao Dejinyi. He listened, thought about it for a few seconds, and then said, "Nephew (his name for Brother Sun has changed after this period of communication), are you... sure? Although Murong Shu is famous for his gambling skills, I'm afraid his martial arts skills are not low."
"Hello, I didn't say I would challenge him in a duel." Sun Yixie said, getting a little closer, and then raised his hand. Shao Dejin muttered in his ears for a while.
Shao Dejin nodded repeatedly as he listened, and a smile appeared on his face unconsciously.
After hearing this, he smiled and said: "Oh? If the wise nephew's plan can really work, it would be really interesting. Who will win when the time comes... we don't know yet."
Sun Yixie took a look and said, OK, this guy has bitten the bait, so he can take the next step.
It was also at this time that Murong Shu finished speaking, and ended with "Everyone can put forward opinions and conditions at will."
So, Sun Yixie took advantage of the situation and stood up before Huo Ming could respond... The transcoding has been serious recently, which makes us more motivated and updates faster. Please do it. Little hands exit reading mode. Thank you
