Su Xin had killed half of the disobedient people in the Six Fan School of Jiangnan, which made the surviving chief detectives tremble with fear and did not dare to show any dissatisfaction.
Now they could see that Su Xin did not take them seriously at all.
He did not even consider whether killing them would affect the current strength of the Six Fan School of Jiangnan. Anyway, the Six Fan School of Jiangnan had been reduced to such a state. How bad could it be?
The other chief detectives were released by Su Xin, while the three strongest chief detectives, Succi, Zhao Yiming, and Liu Hao, were kept here.
The three of them looked at each other and did not know why Su Xin asked them to stay.
Su Xin knocked on the table and said, "Don't be so nervous. I asked you to stay because I want to discuss with you how to recruit people to fill the vacancies in the Six Fan School of Jiangnan as soon as possible.
There are more than 70 states in the Six Fan School of Jiangnan, but now there are only a dozen chief detectives of the Divinity Realm. This number is a little too few. "
The three of them complained in their hearts, "Just now you killed more than ten people without blinking, and now you think it's too few?"
However, they were just complaining in their hearts, and they were still thinking hard on the surface.
Succi shook his head and said, "With the conditions offered by the Six Fan School, we are not short of martial artists at the grassroots level. If we recruit any of them, those martial artists of the Acquired Realm will rush to us.
However, it is not easy to recruit the martial artists of the Innate Realm, especially the martial artists of the Divinity Realm, who are regarded as masters wherever they are.
However, even if they are rogue cultivators, they will not easily join the Six Fan School. After all, the name of the imperial court's dog does not sound good. Now that the Six Fan School of Jiangnan is weak, I guess there will be fewer people who are willing to join us. "
Su Xin raised his eyebrows and said, "Oh? So what do you mean? "
He said cautiously, "What I mean is that we should use the current resources of the Six Fan School to train our low-level constables with all our might. At the same time, we should recruit some warriors of the Acquired Realm to make up for the loss. As long as there are no accidents, we will have a new generation of warriors of the Innate Realm within ten years."
Su Xin shook his head. The method that Zhang Yi had mentioned was too steady. It was simply asking for no mistakes instead of merit. As long as they developed steadily, with the resources of the Six Fan School of Jiangnan, they could indeed recover slowly.
However, this was not what Su Xin wanted, nor was it what the headquarters of Six Fan School wanted. Ten years was too long.
Su Xin then turned his gaze to Zhao Yiming and Liu Hao. One of them was quiet and inflexible, just like Li Bo. The other was very lazy and was not good at this kind of thing. Naturally, he did not have any good ideas.
Seeing them like this, Su Xin knocked on the table and said, "The powerful Rogue Cultivators are unwilling to join the Six Fan School because of our bad reputation. Since that is the case, we can directly find those who have a worse reputation than the Six Fan School."
The three of them were stunned. They did not understand what Su Xin meant.
"Old Huang, give me the map," Su Xin said.
Huang Bingcheng immediately took out a map of Jiangnan and handed it to Su Xin. On it, Su Xin had marked many small dots.
Su Xin pointed to the dots and said, "These marks are the mountains where some fierce bandits in Jiangnan are. Our target is them.
Jiangnan's martial arts flourished, so the living environment of these bandits was very bad. Perhaps one day, they would be regarded as a target of chivalry by a young disciple of a gang and be directly annihilated. Therefore, it was very difficult for them to survive in Jiangnan.
However, because of this, although the number of bandits in Jiangnan was small, they were not weak.
In this case, if they were really weak, they would probably be wiped out in a few days. Those who could survive were all elites.
Each of the forces I've marked has at least a few Spirit Aperture and Divinity Stage martial artists. Do you think this force is enough? "
The few of them were stunned. They did not expect that Su Xin would suddenly want to recruit these bandits.
They were the first to object, "Sir, we can't do this. These bandits in Jiangnan have committed all kinds of crimes, such as burning, killing, and looting. Their reputation is very bad. We can't even wipe them out on a daily basis. How can we recruit them?"
Su Xin said, "It is because we need to wipe them out on a daily basis that we have to recruit them now. Haven't you heard of a term called enlistment?"
Enlistment was used very well by a dynasty in Su Xin's previous life. They would turn the originally troublesome enemies into their own subordinates and get them to attack another troublesome enemy.
This method of turning the enemy into one's own dog and then biting others was undoubtedly very clever. At least, it did not hurt one's own strength at all.
"Enlistment?" Confusion flashed in Succi's eyes, but he could guess the meaning of the term just by looking at the words.
However, Succi still shook his head and said, "Lord Su, it's not that we can't recruit those bandits, but if we do that, it will be bad for our reputation.
Secondly, those bandits are wild and difficult to tame. If they suddenly become constables of Six Doors, will there be more trouble? "
Su Xin sneered, "Reputation? We have already become the imperial court's dogs. What reputation do we need? So what if they are bandits? I can even tell those martial arts sects clearly that I am colluding with the government and bandits. Apart from talking big, do you think they would dare to come to the headquarters of Six Doors to help the weak?
Moreover, our real enemy has never been the bandits, but the entire martial arts world forces of Jiangnan. And the ones these bandits are most hostile to are the martial arts world forces of Jiangnan. It seems that we still have a common enemy. "
As he said this, Su Xin turned to look at Liu Hao, "You were born a bandit. You should be the one who understands the mentality of those bandits the best. If I recruit them with great sincerity, what do you think the success rate will be?"
Liu Hao thought about it seriously and said, "Very high. To be honest, other than those who are born cruel and murderous, who wants to be a bandit that everyone wants to beat up since birth? They are all forced to do so.
Especially in a place like Jiangnan, those martial arts sects might release a disciple to roam the Jianghu at any time. If you encountered such a sect's direct disciple who was chivalrous, you basically had no other choice but to escape. Even if you had the strength to defeat him, it would be useless.
These big sects all beat up the young ones, and the old ones come. Therefore, when they meet the disciples of these big sects that they can't afford to fight or provoke, the bandits can only keep moving and be chased like dogs.
I believe that many bandits have had enough of this kind of life. As long as you, Lord Su, can recruit them, those oppressed bandits will definitely come to you.
However, these bandits are really unstable, and each of them is extremely bold. If you really recruit them to Six Doors, it might really attract some trouble. "
Su Xin waved his hand and said, "Don't think about anything else. As long as you can recruit these people, it will be fine. As for whether they will stir up trouble in Six Doors, you don't have to worry about this. After entering Six Doors, they won't have a chance to show off."
Seeing that Su Xin had made up his mind, they didn't say anything else. Su Xin said to Huang Bingcheng, "Old Huang, go and organize people to send letters to the major martial arts world forces of Jiangnan. Ask them to come to Jiangnan Prefecture in ten days for a discussion."
Huang Bingcheng was stunned. "Again?"
Su Xin nodded and said, "We have to give them another chance."
Liu Hao and the others looked a little strange. They really couldn't guess what this lord was thinking.
"Okay, Old Huang, you're in charge of this matter. The rest of you, follow me to the territories of the bandits in Jiangnan and see how many people we can bring this time."
Liu Hao and the others cupped their hands and said, "Yes, Your Excellency!"
The next day, the news of Su Xin wiping out nearly half of Six Doors' forces in one day spread through the other martial arts sects in Jiangnan.
Some small forces secretly laughed at Su Xin. He was an expert in internal strife, but an amateur in external strife.
He had just taken over Six Doors in Jiangnan, and he had already begun to eliminate dissidents. He had directly destroyed nearly half of the power of Six Doors in Jiangnan. He didn't even know how to plan. It seemed that such a reckless person wouldn't amount to much.
However, the leaders of the major sects who were knowledgeable did not think so. They valued Su Xin even more.
He broke into the Nian Gang alone, took three attacks from Dong Buyi, and took back Six Doors' power of taxes and supervision. He was courageous.
He took advantage of the situation to eliminate dissidents and killed Lei Yuan and the others decisively. He was scheming.
It seemed that Su Xin was a courageous and decisive person. It was reasonable for Six Doors to make him, a Divine-Level martial artist, the chief of detectives of Jiangnan.
However, they soon received Su Xin's invitation, which made the leaders of the major sects sneer.
They had just thought that Su Xin was not bad, but they did not expect Su Xin to be so arrogant that he wanted to meddle in the affairs of Jiangnan's martial arts world.
'So what if you can take three attacks from Dong Buyi? Su Xin and Six Doors of Jiangnan's current strength are still far from being able to meddle in the affairs of Jiangnan's martial arts world! '
Therefore, many of the sects did not take Su Xin's invitation seriously and threw it away like it was trash.
Meanwhile, Su Xin was heading to the bandits' territory in Jiangnan under Liu Hao's lead.
It was said that Liu Hao was a rogue cultivator when he joined Six Doors. However, before he became a rogue cultivator, he used to be a bandit in Jiangnan for a period of time. Therefore, he was quite familiar with the bandit forces in Jiangnan.
Su Xin asked Liu Hao why he chose not to be a bandit. Liu Hao's answer was simple. Firstly, it was because he was lazy.
Being a bandit in Jiangnan was not an easy job. There were various powerful martial arts forces and rogue cultivators everywhere. It was very troublesome to investigate the other party's background before taking action.
Secondly, Liu Hao was afraid. Who knew when he would be punished by the disciples of the famous sects. He did not want to live such a precarious life for the rest of his life.
