A few years ago, when he could only eat one meal at a time, it was already good enough to have a bowl of porridge during Chinese New Year.
Now that he was not short of money, he could not continue living like that.
Shopping for Chinese New Year goods was a must. After walking around the streets, Li Yi could not carry all the things he bought with his two hands.
"Martial Uncle, let me carry it." The girl who insisted on becoming Ruyi's disciple hurried over and said.
Unknowingly, he had grown up a generation. Li Yi enjoyed being called "Martial Uncle", but he still shook his head to show his refusal.
Although the girl seemed to want to be Ruyi's disciple, her "master" did not agree. As the Martial Uncle, he could not overstep his boundaries and do things for her.
Miss.Liu did not agree, nor did she chase her away. The girl simply followed them. She did not put down the sword in her hand, but the small bag on her back was left at home.
Without a third hand, when they walked to another street, Li Yi could no longer carry anything in his hands.
He bought a fish from the fish shop and was going to make sweet and sour fish at home. The girl took the fish from Xiao Huan at the right time and held it in her hand, then retreated to the back without saying a word.
The young maidservant glanced at her. She only knew that this young lady wanted to become the Second Young Miss' disciple, but the Second Young Miss had not agreed yet. It seemed a little inappropriate to let her carry things. Just as she was about to refuse, she turned her head and saw Li Yi, who was covered in things.
"Young Master, let me help you carry some." She hurried over to help Li Yi. After all, Xiao Huan cared for him, unlike Miss.Liu who was carefree and only wanted to buy the things she liked, but her hands were always empty.
Since he already carried a fish, he did not mind letting her carry more things. With half of his luggage taken away, he felt much more relaxed and had the energy to think about other things.
The creation of the Wulin Hero Ranking was naturally not done on a whim, nor did it take up too much of a factor. As for Zhao Yuanwai, he was just randomly assigned a position. It was believed that it would not be long before he was kicked off the ranking, but before that, something unexpected might happen to him.
The people of the martial arts world loved fame. The brothels would try their best to perfect their information. Yesterday, Hero Wang of Anxi County carried an old man in his eighties across the river. The next day, it would become a topic of great interest to the people. Hero Zhao molested a woman in the streets of Qing 'an Prefecture. Within a few days, this scandal would spread throughout the martial arts world …
Of course, to achieve better results, he had to pay more attention to the details.
Shocking! Men would be silent while women would cry. What did Hero Chen do to cause the wrath of the heavens and the people? Was it the distortion of human nature or the degeneration of morality behind this incident? Welcome to Old Sun's Commentary on Jianghu. I'll see you there tomorrow.
Ancient people who had not been poisoned by the circle of friends would not be able to resist such a title.
The more righteous a person was, the more they cared about their reputation. Heroes used their martial arts to break the law. Most of the evil deeds were done by people with high martial skills. As the Lieutenant of a county, Li Yi had to do something to maintain the peace and order of the area under his jurisdiction.
Of course, this method would not work on the infamous bandits in Jianghu who did not care about their reputation. Instead, it would spread their bad reputation even further and increase their arrogance.
At this time, it was necessary to bring some positive energy to the murky Wulin.
Master Zhang, who was ranked 36th on the Chivalrous Leaderboard, broke into a bandit's lair alone and killed more than ten bandits with his own hands. He got rid of a big scourge in Jianghu. According to the latest strength assessment, Master Zhang's ranking rose by two places and became 34th on the Heavenly Leaderboard …
The Qingzhou caravan was kidnapped by bandits. Master Chen and Master Li saw injustice and wiped out the bandits. However, they were seriously injured and almost lost their lives. This kind of selfless and fearless spirit was worth learning by everyone. Master Chen and Master Li were named as the stars of Jianghu because of this. They were one of the top ten figures in Jianghu. The leader of the caravan rewarded them with a lot of gold for saving their lives. The magistrate of Anxi County, Lord Liu, personally came to visit …
Positive news like this could be publicized more.
Of course, this was a very complicated and tedious job. Old Sun and the others were still in the exploration stage. Li Yi gave them sufficient funds. Seeing how important this matter was to Li Yi, Old Sun had already assigned many people to take care of this matter.
Old Sun had a very big dream. He wanted to revitalize this industry so that more and more actors and actresses could eat their fill. This dream could not be realized by himself. Li Yi had now become his hope to realize this dream.
One day, their brothels would be built in other prefectures, or even the capital, or even the entire Jing Kingdom …
Every time he thought about this, Old Sun's old face would glow.
…
…
The ranking of the Chivalrous Leaderboard was updated very quickly. Yesterday, Chuzhou's Zhao Yuanwai, who was ranked 40th, had three of his ribs broken by Qingzhou's Pound, who was ranked 41st. The next day, their rankings were switched.
Those who were ranked at the bottom of the Chivalrous Leaderboard or those who were not on the leaderboard seemed to have found a breakthrough. They all expressed their desire to challenge Zhao Yuanwai. In view of his injuries, in the spirit of humanitarianism, everyone was willing to give him half a month to recuperate.
It was said that in order to decide who would be the first to challenge, a few heroes fought. The scene was very intense. Some of them were even more seriously injured than Zhao Yuanwai.
After that, the Zhao family's old house in Chuzhou became empty.
More than half of the Zhao family's property was sold. Only a small portion was left for the old servants to take care of. As for Zhao Yuanwai, who was ranked 41st on the Heavenly Leaderboard, no one knew where he went …
Wu Er was the one who told Li Yi these things.
Wu Er had now become Old Sun's Martial Arts Consultant. He received a monthly salary of five hundred copper coins. All he needed to do was to ask his friends in the Martial Arts Community to pay attention to the big and small matters in the Martial Arts Community. The more valuable the information he provided, the more rewards he would receive.
After Old Sun's team organized the information and told it to the people in the Martial Arts Community, they received a large sum of money. A small portion of the money was used to put up rewards …
It seemed that he had underestimated Old Sun. With his efforts, this great cause was becoming more and more prosperous. Almost all the poor actors in Anxi County had been integrated by him. Spacious brothels were also spreading to further places …
Due to the declining business of Ruyi Dew and hard liquor, the family's income, which had been decreasing every day, increased again.
Even Li Yi had to admit that he had underestimated the huge potential of the brothels.
…
…
After lying in the courtyard for a short while, Xiao Huan had already come to complain twice.
The target of her complaint was, of course, the girl named Yangliuqing, who was still begging Ruyi to take her as a disciple.
The girl was young, but she was very persistent. Since Ruyi did not agree, she would come every day before dawn to clean the courtyard, boil water, and chop firewood. After she was done with these chores, she would take a rag and wipe every place in the house until it was spotless …
Most of these chores were done by Xiao Huan, but they were all snatched away by her. The servant girl had never been so free in her life.
He had told her several times not to come anymore, but she never listened. She did not say a word and only knew how to work hard. Even Li Yi was a little touched by her.
"Young master, say something about her. She does all the chores, and Xiao Huan has nothing to do …" The servant girl looked at the girl who started to clean the courtyard with a broom in dissatisfaction and said while hugging Li Yi's arm.
"Isn't it good to have nothing to do …" Li Yi knocked her head lightly and said, "Go play with Sister Xu and the others. Let her do these chores if she wants to."
Before Xiao Huan left, Li Xuan walked in from outside and pointed at the unfamiliar girl in the courtyard suspiciously. He looked at Li Yi and asked, "Who is she? Is she your new concubine?"
Clang!
With the sound of a long sword being unsheathed, a sword light slashed over.
