: ‘Overwhelming’ returns to the world

Not to mention how warmly Wang Ziteng received the female students and his party, Jia Rong was also ready to start in the capital.

Ahem, his vest is going to make a comeback and muddy the waters.

The target targeted this time was the Caobang they had just cooperated with.

It was not that he had a recurring temperament, but that he nipped the possible threat from the Cao Gang in the cradle.

At this time, it can be said that Caobang has unlimited scenery, and both black and white can take advantage of it.

With the largest private salt sales system in Daqian in hand, one can imagine how much the Caobang's wealth will expand in a short period of time.

With a lot of money, enough desperadoes, and a very solid background, once such a behemoth develops, I'm afraid even today it won't be able to sleep well.

There is a very popular saying in modern times, that is, capital eats meat.

This sentence is also applicable in the feudal ethics era. Once Caobang really develops and expands to a certain extent, external expansion is inevitable.

Then, Caobang, who controlled the entire private freight channel of the Grand Canal, found out that the section of the canal from Jinmen to Tongzhou was not under control. Adding to the previous grievances and interest disputes, what would Caobang do?

He will definitely be like a mad dog and pounce on him regardless of his own safety.

At this point, even if the four major families in Jinling unite, they may not be able to withstand it.

Unless Tianjin's interests are completely shared with the Founding Group, don't expect to get the full support of the Founding Group.

At that time, it is difficult to say whether Shi Ding is still the commander of the Salt Army or not.

In some coastal areas, there must be more than one salt field opened up. With Caobang's power and energy, it is not difficult to control several salt fields.

At that time, even if we wanted to threaten the sea salt quota, we couldn't do it.

Once they encounter a fierce attack from the Cao Gang, the four major families in Jinling will surely suffer heavy losses.

We can’t expect that Yuanchun in the palace will suddenly break out at this time and become the dazzling virtuous concubine in the story of the Red Mansion, right?

If you don't know how to strike first, then Jia Rong is out of his mind.

Besides, the momentum of Caobang at this time is amazing. Have you ever worried about it now?

He specially paid a lot of money to ask Dai Quan to help him talk about the situation now.

"If we hadn't had a good relationship for many years, our family would never have accepted such money!"

Dai Quan's face was quite solemn at that time, but he finally put the five thousand taels of silver notes into his sleeves.

The next time he left the palace, Dai Quan brought him a sure letter.

"Your Majesty, you probably didn't have any thoughts in this regard from the beginning!"

"When His Majesty was in a good mood, we casually mentioned it and said that Caobang is really powerful right now, and we don't know how much money we can make in a year?"

"Those courtiers who support the Cao Gang in court probably have a stable income of a large amount of money every year!"

"His Majesty was not in a good mood at that time. Although he didn't say anything, he must have remembered Caobang!"

Having said this, Dai Quan couldn't help but smacked his lips and asked curiously: "Are you going against the Cao Gang again?"

"By the way, didn't we join forces before?"

"People without thought, he must worry about!"

Jia Rong chuckled and said: "We almost had a fight with the Caobang before, but later we only cooperated because of profit, and naturally we can also fall out because of profit!"

Dai Quan is not interested in these things. As long as he is still on the throne and continues to trust him as the chief eunuch, no one will dare to underestimate him.

While serving tea to see the guests off, he made it very clear: For the sake of everyone's friendship, he would help and keep an eye on it.

However, it is impossible for him to continue to speak out and stir up trouble in front of today, no matter how much money is given to him.

Jia Rong expressed his understanding that this was Dai Quan's way of survival, and he would naturally not force it.

Fortunately, we have always attached great importance to public opinion in the capital city, so there is no need for Dai Quan to come forward in the future. One time is only five thousand taels of silver, which is too expensive.

There are some things that Dai Quan has not said aloud. Now he has sent his spies to inquire about the specific situation of Caogang.

Jia Rong actually guessed it, but didn't say it out loud.

In fact, there are many members of the Honorable Group in the spy organization under our command today. This is a very necessary precaution, and everyone knows it well but maintains appropriate silence.

After leaving a mark on today's heart, Jia Rong took action.

The novel he took out this time is called "The Grand Canal", which is a story about the intertwining of rivers, lakes and courts.

Soon, fresh "Grand Canal" storytelling appeared in restaurants and tea shops in the capital, as well as in some entertainment venues where storytellers were present.

Some listeners who like to hear stories told by writers were immediately excited and enthusiastic when they heard that it was an "awe-inspiring" new work.

"I've been waiting for a long time and finally today, I've been waiting for a long time and finally got a new book from the same family as 'A Mountains and Oceans'!"

"Yeah, how long has it been since the guy from 'Overwhelming Mountains' published a new novel?"

"If I didn't know where his family lived, I would have sent him a few long knives so that he could keep writing good stories!"

"I hope this guy's level won't drop. I haven't heard any wonderful stories for a long time. The same old routines are really boring!"

"Yeah, there were guys who imitated the 'overwhelming' writing model and style before, but the novels they wrote were bullshit, and they didn't even know what they were writing about?"

"That's right, it's obviously a story of struggle, but it's written as a love story of a young master. I'm so fucking confused. I haven't touched a woman for who knows how long. Are you so horny and unbearable?"

"Haha, I have read "Kaifeng Mansion" which was written before "Surprise". Anyone who still believes in the love story of the young master must be out of his mind!"

"Who knows if the young master in the story is fake? There are too many bad people in this world. If you are really talented, let's show him first!"

"Forget it, I was still a novelty for a while, but I found out that it's nothing. It's not as interesting as listening to those old stories!"

"It's so funny. If you want to say a novel, it has to be 'overwhelming'!"

"..."

With a conversation like this, almost every audience member who heard the beginning of a new story couldn't help but start talking.

It cannot be said that the entertainment life of this era is not exciting, but it is still somewhat lacking in terms of novelty and variety.

For example, in terms of novels, most novel authors are poor scholars who write books just to make ends meet.

These guys have mediocre experience, plus they are obsessed with the imperial examination, and they also yearn for "awakening the world and lying drunk on the lap of a beautiful woman". The most written stories are those love stories between poor scholars and rich ladies.

Even some other types of novels are quite average because of their own experience and ability to see problems.

Compared with the three novels written by Jia Rong's Ma Jia, the gap is not as big as usual.

With enough fame as a foundation, the new book "Grand Canal" has been sought after by many audiences as soon as it came out.

The plot at the beginning of "Grand Canal" is indeed exciting enough.

The time point of the novel is the period between Emperor Yongle and the Ming God of War.

Zhujiao is a businessman who has lived a happy life with no worries about food and clothing since he was a child.

Because he didn't like reading, he had no talent in reading, and he also liked to dance with guns and sticks. His father simply spent a lot of money to hire a well-known local boxer to teach him martial arts.

This guy really likes martial arts and is actually able to endure the hardships of practicing martial arts.

Although it is only a chapter describing the growth experience of Pig's Feet, it also makes the audience listen with interest and feel immersed in it.

In one chapter, the practice of practicing pig's feet is described in detail.

From the beginning of the horse stance, to the beginning of the footpath, the lower body is stable, the muscles and bones are strengthened, and the strength is greatly increased. The description is detailed and not procrastinating.

After that, there is the stage of entering the palace, then the stage of minor success, and then the stage of perfection, which is just like practicing and upgrading, and it is full of refreshing feeling.

Such detailed descriptions of martial arts training and various realms made the audience full of curiosity, and the refreshing feeling of advancement was quite strong.

It’s not that there weren’t stories about martial arts heroes before, but few authors could describe the process of martial arts training in detail and wonderfully.

Firstly, it may reveal the secret of one's own martial arts training, and secondly, there are very few novel authors who are true martial artists.

Jia Rong describes the strength of each stage based on the actual performance of martial arts, allowing the audience to have a clear understanding and a full sense of involvement.

For example, after getting started in martial arts, your muscles and bones will be strong and your strength will increase greatly. After you enter the palace, your fists and feet will be so sharp that even three or five big men will not be able to get close to you.

These are all real things and are not exaggerated.

When the martial arts reaches the minor stage, the blood and qi are strong, the muscles and bones are strong, and any punch or kick can have a force of hundreds of kilograms or more. At the same time, the speed, reaction ability, and physical fitness have been greatly improved.

As for the state of proficiency, he was already considered a master of martial arts at that time, and it was not a problem to defeat dozens of people with one, so these were described side by side with short stories.

In short, although it is only one chapter, it gives the audience a very clear understanding of the martial arts of pig's feet and the practice of martial arts.

Pig's feet is quite talented in martial arts, and with the strong support of his family, he not only invites famous boxers to teach him, but also eats big fish and meat every meal, and also supplements his diet with medicinal herbs.

From time to time, you have to take medicinal baths to cleanse your body, so that you can fully express the "Fuwu" of Qiongwen Fuburi.

He was also quite diligent and hard-working. He did not slack off at all during the winter training and the summer training. By the time he reached the age of eighteen, he was already at the stage of minor success in martial arts.

During this period, in addition to practicing martial arts and upgrading, under the guidance of the boxer, I competed with the masters of the martial arts gym in the town where my family was located. I did not encounter any troubles, and there was no plot of chivalry.

It can only be said that at this time, Zhujiao is just a happy young man who has successfully practiced martial arts.

At that time, the social order was good, it was the heyday of the Ming Dynasty, and the Pig's Foot family was quite powerful in the local area, so they did not encounter anything bad.

However, when Pigfoot becomes an adult and his parents get older, he must take on the responsibility of taking care of his parents and taking over part of the family business.
