Xiao Qiang smiled and said, "In terms of the goods themselves, even in the rich Gangnam-do, it is not cheap. It costs about six to seven thousand taels to get it. In addition, when you go to Jiangnan from Beiliang, you have to deal with all kinds of bad guys, so it is impossible to get it without ten thousand taels of silver. But if you go to Beimang, you can sell it for thirty-five thousand taels of silver. When you get back to that official's son, after deducting all the expenses, you can't escape earning sixteen or seventeen thousand taels of silver. This money is like a rolling snowball, always rolling bigger and bigger. As long as you have the capital, connections, and background, you don't have to worry about money. These descendants of military families, while their fathers were busy collecting the wealth of the people, they weren't idle either. To be honest, these young masters aren't all idiots. When it comes to networking, ten of these boorish men who only know how to fight and kill can't even compare to one of them. "
Liu Nerong sighed and said, "The Fish-dragon Gang missed the best opportunity. If they could be ruthless twenty years ago, they might be the biggest gang in Lingzhou today."
Xiao Qiang said helplessly, "So Nerong, don't blame the old gang leader. He tried so hard to introduce you to the son of the Lu family of Yuliang, not just because he coveted the other party's family background so that he could help the Fish-dragon Gang. The old gang leader only has one granddaughter, how could he be willing to push you into the fire pit? I have seen the young man of the Lu family with my own eyes. He is a bit arrogant, but his character is not bad. After all, he has already obtained scholarly honors. Not to mention the Fish-dragon Gang, even the daughter of the biggest sect in Beiliang, the Dragon Gate Sect, may not be good enough for him. Although what I said is unpleasant to hear, it is the truth. "
Liu Nerong was silent and pursed her lips tightly. Xiao Qiang knew that his disciple was cold and indifferent. Once she went into a dead end, even ten horses would not be able to pull her back, so he did not force her. After all, this was the Liu family's private matter. He was an old man who was about to leave the martial arts world to enjoy his life, so he did not overdo it. But Xiao Qiang knew that whether his life would be comfortable and stable in the future would be directly linked to the power of the Fish-dragon Gang. Naturally, he hoped that Liu Nerong could marry into a good family. Twenty years ago, the Lu family of Yuliang was just a poor family. Although they were rich, not to mention the big families, even the small families had to look down on them. But they took the opportunity to get on good terms with a powerful figure in the Beiliang army, and rose in the smoke of war. The Beiliang army was a towering tree, with its roots intertwined, the Lu family was a small family. but of course, compared to the top ten families, of course, of the family, there was still a big family. of the Lu family. But how could Liu Nerong, a woman of Jianghu, be able to associate with those prestigious and influential Indescribable Noble Clans?
Liu Nerong remembered something and exhaled deeply. With a fascinated face, she said, "Master, I heard that the new leader of Wudang is the reincarnation of an immortal, who once rode a crane to Jiangnan. Also, Old God of Sword Li fought with Wang Xianzhi on the East Sea of the Martial Emperor City. Later, he killed two thousand and six hundred cavalrymen on the Guangling River with only one sword. Then, the Peach Blossom Sword God Đồng Thái went to the Taoist Master's Mansion alone and did not stop until he was stopped by Xiao Lu Zuqi Xianxia and a descendant of the Taoist Master's Mansion. Is this true?"
When Xiao Qiang heard this, his face was also full of reverence. He smiled and said, "I have never seen any of these immortal figures in my life, so how can I know if it is true or not? As for the flying sword, although I have been practicing the sword for thirty years, I have not even scratched the surface of flying swords, so I am even more confused. But I would rather believe that the two Gods of Sword are immortals on earth who can ride their swords from a thousand miles away to take a head. In any case, it gives us, the slow-witted juniors who also carry swords, a beautiful thought. Just like how we cannot afford to eat the delicacies in the Beiliang Palace, just thinking about it can make us salivate. "
Xiao Qiang laughed loudly, and Liu Nerong's eyes were shining.
Liu Nerong caught a glimpse of a young man beside her from the corner of her eye, and she frowned subconsciously. This young man was dressed in clean clothes and had a simple sword on his waist. Liu Nerong only knew that he was sent by the heir of a general's family, but did not reveal his identity in detail. He was responsible for supervising the transportation of goods, and his job was probably to keep an eye on them. He was afraid that the Fish-dragon Gang, who had never seen the world, would secretly steal some inconspicuous but expensive small things from the piles of goods. How could the proud Liu Nerong like him? The appearance and bearing of the young man with the saber were not bad. The dozens of robust members of the Fish-dragon Gang were not stupid enough to think that he was just an odd-job worker from a fourth-rank general's mansion. After all, he was someone who could accompany the Fish-dragon Gang to Northern Mang. Along the way, there were many guesses. Some said that he was the son of a certain steward in the strict general's mansion. Some said that he was a distant relative of the general who had received training and came here to gain experience. But more people viciously thought that this embroidered pillow, who was so good-looking that it made people jealous, was the lover of the general's son. Hey, who could say for sure about the affairs of a rich and noble family? How could there be any lack of dirty secrets and scandals?
Liu Nerong's mind was clear, so of course she didn't understand why the gang members were looking at the young man with such a playful expression. In any case, the past ten days had been peaceful. Since that person didn't cause any trouble, she naturally wouldn't find trouble with him. She had privately asked her master, Xiao Qiang, about this unfamiliar man's martial arts skills. Xiao Qiang only said that he couldn't tell, so she was relieved. Most likely, he was a bored person who used his saber as an accessory. In any case, the rich and powerful young people all liked this kind of thing. They were obviously weaker than scholars who had no strength to truss up a chicken, yet they liked to carry a saber and a sword.
The man with the sword kept a clear distance from the Fish-dragon Gang.
Seeing Liu Nerong's peeping gaze, he responded with a smile.
Liu Nerong turned her head with a cold face.
