It took more than an hour to finish the meal. They had almost tasted all the special dishes in the Shanzhen Restaurant. However, the proprietor and the others were speechless and tasteless. No matter how Gu Yunzhong, Yanqing and the others were aroused, Wu Feng always maintained a nonchalant attitude about the topic, and the few people could not find out Wu Feng's exact identity until the banquet was over. On the contrary, a few girls had the same temperament and were chatting enthusiastically. After leaving the table, they were still gathered in a group of people laughing and talking.
As soon as he left the table, Wu Feng used the excuse that he was tired and needed a rest, and asked for a quiet room alone, pretending to be Xiao Mei, which made Gu Yan and others who still wanted to entangle them not have a chance, and felt deeply depressed.
"Tianxiong, what do you think of the Bashan Gu family?" The room seemed a little dark, Wu Feng leaned on the chair, gently picked up the cup and took a sip.
"According to the observations of my subordinates, apart from Gu Yunzhong, Yan Qing is probably the main brains of the Gu family. Although Gu Dengyun is young, he also appears to be capable and steady. He is considered a talent." Song Tianxiong knew that his master did not like to beat around the bush. , and stated his observations straightforwardly.
"Well, it seems that the Gu family has some talents, especially Yan Qing, who is probably the brains behind the Gu family." Wu Feng said while thinking slowly.
"Then since the Gu family can be considered a major sect in the Kansai region, they should be somewhat influential in the Kansai region?" Wu Feng's words had a profound meaning.
"The Kansai region is at the western edge of the empire, and the ethnic groups are relatively complex. The residents also have martial arts traditions and the folk customs are strong. The Gu family can play an important role in the martial arts in the Kansai region, so it naturally has considerable influence." Song Tianxiong said to Wu Feng I didn't dare to guess the meaning in the sentence, so I had to be vague.
"Well, then, go and ask Gu Yan and the others to come to my place. Just tell them that I have something to invite, and don't disturb other people." Wu Feng slowly stood up and said.
"Yes." Song Tianxiong bowed and retreated.
Another room in the inn.
"Third brother, it seems that this boy is really cunning. No matter how we ask, he can't tell the truth. I have asked Yunxia to explore the mouths of those girls to see if they can find out anything." Gu Yunzhong gently stroked the long beard under his chin. , a pair of eagle eyes are bright and shining in the slightly dark room.
"Elder brother, I always feel that this guy has an extraordinary background, but I can't figure out who this guy is. However, I dare to assert that the ** sect must rely on this person's relationship to gain a foothold in the northwest." White-faced Yan Qing He let out a breath of thick air.
"I really can't believe that Guan Yiming would still use this trick. I see that the housekeeper Nizi is no longer a virgin, and she is still dressed as an unmarried woman. After all, the housekeeper is also a member of the Hejian family. Look at that little Nizi But there is no evasion at all, this must be approved by Guan Yiming, the beauty trap really works." There was an indescribable sense of envy or jealousy in Gu Yunzhong's tone.
"If Yunxia makes no progress for a while, we will have to give up. But after we go back, we have to find a way to touch this guy's bottom." Yan Qing had a thoughtful expression on his face.
"That's natural." Gu Yunzhong also nodded in agreement.
"Tuk-tuk" Two knocks on the door interrupted their conversation.
"Master, Mr. Song just came to tell me that his master has invited the master and the third uncle to come and discuss important matters." The disciple outside the door responded respectfully.
The two people in the room exchanged looks in surprise, "I know, tell him we'll be there right away." A look of confusion appeared on Gu Yunzhong's face.
"Let's go, Senior Brother, maybe we will have unexpected gains?" Yan Qing said thoughtfully.
The door creaked, "Sir, you two are here." Song Tianxiong opened the door gently, "Please, my lord has been waiting for you for a long time."
Gu Yunzhong and Yan Qing were stunned when they heard Song Tianxiong's name for Wu Feng, and secretly wondered whether this man was really an important member of the Northwest Army
"Both of you, please take a seat." Wu Feng was originally facing the window with his hands behind his back, but now he turned around and said, "Excuse me, I'd like to invite you two to inquire about something."
Gu Yan and Gu Yan heard that Wu Feng's tone had changed, and it was no longer the same tone as before between a junior and an elder. They didn't reply, only waiting for Wu Feng to say the next thing.
"Actually, I think Erwei may have been guessing about my identity. Maybe I have some suspicions that have not yet been confirmed. My surname is indeed Li, and my cursive character is Wu Feng. I just concealed something, which may offend me." Wu Feng said the two sentences lightly.
"Li Wufeng? Mr. Li Wufeng, the Military and Political Governor of the Northwest?" A few words sounded like a thunderbolt in the clear sky. Gu Yan and Gu Yan stood up immediately after sitting down. I have never encountered such an unexpected thing.
The two of them looked at each other and suddenly realized that it was him! No wonder he has such momentum and grace! I just didn't expect that the famous imperial hero would be so young.
The two people hurriedly bowed and saluted, "Gu Yunzhong (Yan Qing), a common man, has met Mr. Li. Please forgive me for being rude before."
"No need to be polite. I'm just passing by here this time. You two don't need to be polite. Please sit down." Wu Feng raised his hands to indicate that there was no need to be polite.
After Wu Feng repeatedly signaled, the two of them suppressed their excitement and sat down.
"I wonder what you can tell me about recruiting ordinary people?" Gu Yunzhong asked, suppressing his excitement.
"I can't talk about it after seeing you. I've heard about the name of the Gu family for a long time, and today I met some of the heroes of the Gu family, and they are indeed well-deserved." Wu Feng said in an official tone.
"Your Excellency, this is ridiculous. Our sect has only a small reputation. How can we deserve your praise?" Gu Yunzhong was humble but also quite proud.
"However, I heard that your faction seems to have encountered some troubles in recent years?" Wu Feng changed the topic.
The two looked at each other. They didn't expect Wu Feng to know about these situations. "I didn't expect Mr. Li to know so much about the situation of our sect. Yes, Mr. Xie, the guardian of Bashan City, seems to have misunderstood and prejudiced us martial arts people. Although our Gu family has a long history, He is innocent and has never violated any law or discipline, but he is not favored by Mr. Xie. It has indeed had some influence in recent years." Gu Yunzhong did not hide it either.
"I wonder if your Excellency can..." Yan Qing stared at Wu Feng.
"This Kansai area is not under my jurisdiction, so I really can't help." Wu Feng still didn't understand what they meant, and shook his head slightly.
Their expressions suddenly darkened.
"However, the Gu family already has such a foundation, why not leave Bashan and find another place for development?" Wu Feng half-squinted his eyes and smiled.
Gu Yunzhong had a bitter smile on his face, "You don't know something, sir. Our Gu family has been based in Kansai for nearly a hundred years and has such a foundation. Gu originally wanted to do something in his career, but Xie Chengshou had a deep hatred for people in the world and it was difficult to change. Not only in Bashan, he also intentionally restricted martial arts disciples from engaging in all walks of life. He also wrote to the county governor to inform neighboring prefectures that branches could not be opened in various places without the approval of the government where they were registered, deliberately restricting the development of martial arts sects, and the entire Kansai region. The government had no choice but to give him some face due to the feelings of colleagues. You also know that without the permission and support of the local government, it is difficult for martial arts sects like us to survive and grow."
"Then you can get out of this *** in Kansai." Wu Feng said with a smile.
The words woke up the dreamer, and the two of them were pleasantly surprised. "Your Majesty, do you agree with our sect to develop in the northwest?" Gu Yunzhong's voice was trembling, and he was obviously a little excited. If he gets the approval of the northwest king, then he will go to the northwest. The future of development is bright.
"If the Gu family intends to develop in the northwest, I certainly have no objection. However, there are already many martial arts sects in the northwest. Is it too late for the Gu family to enter now?" Wu Feng said with a smile.
"You don't have to worry about this, sir. As long as we can get your consent, our sect is confident of establishing a firm foothold in the northwest." Yan Qing, who had always been calm, was also a little excited.
"Actually, there is another land. It is now a treasure land waiting to be developed." Wu Feng paused intentionally.
Both of them were stunned. For a moment, they couldn't remember which Feng Shui treasure place it was. Song Tianxiong next to them reminded them: "My lord has just returned from Northern Luzon."
Could it be that Northern Luzon has been controlled by the person in front of him? The two of them were shocked but overjoyed at the same time. If they agreed to allow the Gu family to develop in Northern Luzon, it would be far better than the northwest. After all, there were already many powerful sects in the northwest who had already established a foothold. The Gu family had already left. Backhand. Both Gu and Yan's ecstatic eyes fell on Wu Feng.
"Yes, Northern Luzon is now under my control. It has a vast territory and a large population, not only us Tang people, but also many other ethnic groups. Our Tang River martial arts is extensive and profound and has a long history. I also hope that some imperial martial arts sects can go there to promote it. Tanghe martial arts, a treasure of the Tang people, will let more people across the mainland know about it." Wu Feng's words were full of heroism.
Gu Yan and Gu Yan couldn't sit still anymore, and stood up to salute at the same time, "Your Excellency is so kind to the Gu family, and the entire Gu family will never forget it for generations to come." Gu Yunzhong couldn't suppress his joy, and his contentment was evident in words. He knew that he could Expanding the power and influence of the Gu family beyond the empire is a good thing that all sects dream of. Gu Yunzhong has always been the leader of the Gu family, and is even willing to give up everything. Now that he has such a good opportunity, how can he not be overjoyed.
"Sir, I would like to take the liberty to ask, why did you choose our Gu family? The Xiang family is not bad." It was Yan Qing who calmed down first. As soon as these words came out, Gu Yunzhong also calmed down from the ecstasy and looked at Wu Feng, let’s see how Wu Feng responds.
Nodding his head appreciatively, Wu Feng said: "There is no other reason. First, it is fate; second, the Gu family is famous for its strict sect style in the imperial martial arts world. The disciples in the sect have a good reputation and have never heard of any violation of law or discipline. I don’t want those mixed sects in Beibei Luzon to ruin the reputation of our Tanghe people. As for the ** sect, they have just entered the northwest, do they have that much energy?”
"Your Excellency, I, Gu Yunzhong, have never said thank you for your great kindness. If you are asked, the children of the Gu family will go through fire and water without hesitation." Gu Yunzhong's words were resounding.
"Very good, but although your Gu family is the first martial arts sect that I have agreed to enter Northern Luzon, it is not the only one. I think there will be more in the future. I hope you can seize the opportunity. Besides, I don't want to hear anything. Things that are unpleasant to my ears have reached me..." Wu Feng's tone became serious.
