Currently, Su Xin only had nearly five hundred subordinates, so it was more than enough to arrange for these people to stay in the Merry Forest.
After everyone was settled, Su Xin called Huang Bingcheng over and said, "Old Huang, go and bribe two of the people from the Yongle workshop. I want those who are clever, so you don't have to worry about spending money."
"Boss, do you want to make a move on Sha Yuandong?" Huang Bingcheng asked.
Su Xin shook his head, "What move? I don't need to make a move on a waste like him. He can play himself to death. I asked you to bribe these two people just to inquire about the news.
However, the news must be sent in time. Normally, two messages will be sent in the morning and one at night. If there is an emergency, the news must be sent out immediately. "
"Alright, no problem." Huang Bingcheng nodded.
Bribing two people was not a difficult matter. Currently, the people from the Yongle workshop were newly recruited by Su Xin into the Flying Eagle Gang. Naturally, they had no loyalty to Su Xin.
However, they had no loyalty to Sha Yuandong. As long as the price was right, bribing two people was not a problem.
After instructing Huang Bingcheng to do this matter, Su Xin let Li Bo continue to train his subordinates.
These nearly five hundred people were the core fighting force of his subordinates. They were worth the effort to train.
Although the income from the Yongle workshop was gone, he still had the Merry Forest.
Su Xin was not like the other bosses, stuffing money into his own pockets. The dividends from the Merry Forest were enough to support the nearly five hundred gang members.
After arranging everything, Su Xin returned to his courtyard to cultivate. Apart from sending Xin 'er to the private school every day and listening to Huang Bingcheng's report about the Yongle workshop, he almost never left the house.
Sha Yuandong could do whatever he wanted in the Yongle workshop, so Su Xin could take advantage of this time to consolidate his foundation.
Now, he had the Purple Cloud Divine Art for internal cultivation and the Dragon Elephant Prajna Art for external cultivation.
These two cultivation techniques were not the type that could be learned quickly. Therefore, he needed to concentrate on cultivating to be able to build a solid foundation.
Moreover, he had drawn three bottles of elixirs from the previous lottery. With the assistance of these three bottles of elixirs, his strength would definitely skyrocket by a large margin when he came out of seclusion.
Not to mention Su Xin, who was wholeheartedly cultivating, Sha Yuandong was currently very proud of his success.
He had never been in charge of a gang before. Firstly, he was too young and Sha Feiying was afraid that he wouldn't be able to handle the situation.
Secondly, at that time, all the power of the Eagle Gang was in the hands of the team leader and the three Hall Chiefs, so there was really no position for him.
But now that he was in power, Sha Yuandong immediately felt the taste of power.
Every day, his underlings would respectfully call him Young Gang Master, and he would swagger around the streets every day. Those merchants would also bow and scrape to him, which made Sha Yuandong very satisfied.
However, after feeling good, Sha Yuandong suddenly felt that he should do something.
In the past, Su Xin had set some rules in Yongle Market, but who was in charge of Yongle Market now? He, Sha Yuandong, was in charge! All the rules that Su Xin had set in the past had to be broken!
In the past, these rules that Su Xin had carefully set were all for the future development of Yongle Market. It was fine if Sha Yuandong didn't want to use them, but he didn't ask for Xu Chang's opinion and directly made the decision himself.
This action directly led to chaos in Yongle Market for a period of time, and the first unlucky one was the Hall of Skill Transmission.
In fact, after Su Xin's people left, the Hall of Skill Transmission only existed in name.
Although almost all of the Eagle Gang had learned Su Xin's "Quanzhen Sect's Primary Internal Strength" and "Broken Version of Dog Beating Stick Technique", whether it was internal strength or martial arts, if you wanted to learn it by yourself, you also needed to have talent. If you met a stupid person, even if you self-taught for a lifetime, you wouldn't be able to learn anything.
The original Hall of Skill Transmission was under the charge of Su Xin's subordinates, Li Qing and others. They were all old subordinates of Su Xin, and their strength was close to the early stage of the Houtian realm. Moreover, they had rich combat experience, so it was more than enough for them to teach the new people.
And who were Sha Yuandong's subordinates? Apart from the new people that Su Xin had given him, the rest were some of the gang members directly under Sha Feiying's command.
These gang members could not be said to be weak. In fact, in the past, their strength was second only to the existence of the Hall of Battle.
Although they had also practiced the "Quanzhen Sect's Primary Internal Strength" and "Broken Version of Dog Beating Stick Technique", it was only after Su Xin announced the establishment of the Hall of Skill Transmission. They came to learn from him for two days, and then the Hall of Skill Transmission was taken over by the gang.
It could be said that they did not understand it themselves, so how could they teach the other gang members?
Moreover, previously, Su Xin had asked the gang members who came to the Hall of Skill Transmission to come in batches. This could prevent too many people from overcrowding in the Hall of Skill Transmission, and also improve the quality of teaching, so that a large group of people would not be in a mess. The person in charge of teaching the martial arts explained for a long time, but in the end, no one below the stage could hear him.
But now, with Sha Yuandong's order, all the members of the Flying Eagle Gang who wanted to learn the martial arts could come to the Hall of Skill Transmission at any time. Now, the entire Hall of Skill Transmission had completely turned into a wet market. There was no order, and it was a mess everywhere.
The end result was that after those gang members came once, they did not come again.
Some of the gang members in charge of teaching the martial arts did not even understand the martial arts themselves. Who was teaching who? Moreover, the scene was so chaotic. Were they here to learn the martial arts or to chat and reminisce?
In less than three days, the Hall of Skill Transmission only existed in name.
It was fine that Sha Yuandong had destroyed the name of the Hall of Skill Transmission, but Sha Yuandong's next move had directly caused public anger in Yongle Road.
After learning that Su Xin had taken over the Perpetual Joy Market, he had increased the monthly allowance from 30 taels of silver to 50 taels of silver. Sha Yuandong had actually increased the monthly allowance to 100 taels of silver. This move had caused all the merchants in the Perpetual Joy Market to be dumbfounded.
Originally, when they learned that Su Xin's territory and power had been taken away by the Flying-eagle Gang, they were secretly clapping their hands in joy, thinking that the overbearing Boss Su was finally gone. When the time came, they could put in a good word with the new Young Gang Leader and give him some money. Then, they might be able to reduce the monthly fee back to 30 taels.
But the final result was that after Sha Yuandong knew about this, he directly decided to double the monthly allowance.
In fact, Sha Yuandong's mentality at that time was very simple. When Su Xin became the owner of Yongle Road, he increased the monthly allowance by 20 taels, and if he doubled it, he would naturally appear to be much better than Su Xin, so he increased it.
But at that time, Su Xin had the confidence to increase the monthly allowance because he was confident that he could restrain his subordinates from taking advantage of the big businessmen, so that Yongle Road would see that the extra 20 taels of silver they gave was not an injustice. That was why, although there were occasionally complaints, no one continued to stand up against it.
And after Sha Yuandong doubled the monthly allowance, the group of businessmen from Yongle Road suddenly realized that the environment of Yongle Road did not become better, but became worse than before.
Su Xin's subordinates were strictly restrained by him on what they could do and what they could not do.
If anyone had the guts to take advantage of the businessmen in their territory and pocket their own money, Li Bo, who was in charge of the punishment, would not be lenient.
And Sha Yuandong did not have the consciousness to restrain his subordinates at all. He just let them do as they pleased and let them take advantage of the big and small businessmen. The more daring ones even directly extorted them.
These people used to be Sha Feiying's direct subordinates and were sent by Sha Feiying to support Sha Yuandong. Unfortunately, these people did not manage to do so, but they were very good at squandering.
Those businessmen complained to Sha Yuandong. On one side were businessmen who had no status in Sha Yuandong's eyes, and on the other side were direct subordinates sent by his father. There was naturally no need to say who Sha Yuandong sided with.
Those businessmen who complained did not do anything to the other party, but were directly chased out by Sha Yuandong. As a result, the next day, those people directly came to their door and extorted even more, almost forcing those businessmen to go bankrupt.
That was not all. After Su Xin left with his men, the entire streets of Yongle Road were left unattended. All kinds of petty thieves and ruffians appeared.
In the past, when Su Xin was around, the entire Yongle Road had to follow its own rules. Whoever dared to cause trouble on the streets, Su Xin's men would directly bring them to the hall for tea. It was even more timely than the constables patrolling the streets.
These guys were all organized. In the past, when the Green Bamboo Gang was in charge, they did not want to easily provoke them, so they just let them be. For example, Old Wolf of Black Water Street.
However, when Su Xin just took over Yongle Road, he beat Old Wolf into submission. He was the most powerful underground force in Yongle Road. When the others saw that he was convinced, they immediately became obedient.
But now that Su Xin had left, they immediately started to cause trouble again.
These guys were the kind of people who were like troublemakers. Other than those like Su Xin who directly suppressed others with their strength, they did not care about others, even the government officials.
In their eyes, Sha Yuandong only had a good father. They were not afraid of him!
Indeed, Sha Yuandong did not care about them. After all, they were harming the merchants and commoners of Yongle Road. What did it have to do with him?
The patrolling constables of Yongle Road were also disturbed because of these guys. If they were to arrest these people, they would not be able to do so. If they did not arrest them, some people even reported them to the prefectural magistrate, making them lose face.
Constable Little Zhang also went to look for Sha Yuandong, but unfortunately, it was useless.
The constables of the government were indeed not to be offended. Xu Chang had warned Sha Yuandong that it was best not to offend these people.
In the end, although Sha Yuandong was very polite to Constable Little Zhang, he did not take Constable Little Zhang's words to heart.
Indeed, the constables of the government were not to be offended. But if a word from you, the young master of the Eagle Gang, were to be executed like an imperial edict, then what would I become?
These words were useful to Heartless Tie. After Constable Little Zhang finished speaking, Sha Yuandong still did not care.
In less than ten days, the entire Yongle Road was full of complaints because of Sha Yuandong, but he still felt good about himself.
The news about the Merry Forest had never stopped. When Su Xin received the news, he only sneered in his heart. Some people were courting death, so there was nothing he could do.
He did not need to add fuel to the fire. He only needed to watch the vermilion building collapse. That was enough.
