Family practice: all members of the villain

Chapter 91 Searching for Martial Arts
After hearing what Lao Wu said, Hou Yuxiao now wanted to pick him up and give him a kiss. He racked his brains last night and didn't even think of what excuse he should use when showing these upgraded martial arts to the four of them today.

With incredible martial arts talent, this is a perfect excuse...

Hou Yuxiao didn't speak. Facing the extremely admiring gazes of the four people, he just smiled and said, "Keep a low profile. It won't do me any good if this matter spreads!"

The expressions of the four people immediately changed. Thinking of the fanatical pursuit of martial arts by various sects in the world, they immediately nodded solemnly, looked at each other, and secretly swore in their hearts that they must keep this matter in their stomachs from now on. .

But when they saw the third-rate martial arts in their hands and confirmed once again that these martial arts were really improved by Hou Yuxiao, the four of them still showed an unnatural blush on their faces, and their eyes were extremely excited.

Hou Yuxiao looked at the four people's reactions and did not show any surprise. He had already foreseen this scene.

It’s no wonder that the four of them were excited, the main reason was that top-notch martial arts skills were indeed too precious...

First of all, let's talk about the number. Tongling County with more than 200 million people is big enough. One family is second-rate and seven is third-rate, not counting the Hou family. According to the current understanding of each family, the total number of third-rate martial arts will definitely not exceed thirty. Counting that each family has less than four doors.

Of course, there will definitely be more Daluo Sect. After all, the requirements of the second-rate forces require three second-rate martial arts.

The second is function. Martial arts is a killing technique. It can be said that apart from cultivation, it is the strongest among warriors. It is also the best way to beat the opponent. In Yongzhou, there is rarely such a saying. Basically, once they face each other, That is a life and death fight.

A bottom-of-the-line martial arts that can be used to save lives...

Therefore, unless absolutely necessary, no matter whether it is a force or an individual, they will rarely sell first-rate martial arts. This is why a third-rate martial arts can be sold for a high price of more than 10 taels.

"Brother, did you get the Dragon Holding Staff technique by improving the Thirteen Black Dragon Styles?"

Hou Yuduan's question brought the other three people back from their thoughts. They all looked at Hou Yuxiao eagerly. When they saw him nodding gently, their excitement rose to another level.

"Then does this mean that our Hou family will have no shortage of martial arts from now on?"

Hou Yuling looked at the eight martial arts covering six types of weapons: sword, knife, whip, palm, fist, and stick. She suddenly realized that Hou Yuxiao's martial arts talent was not limited to stick skills. She immediately raised her head and asked in surprise.

The rest of the people reacted instantly and looked at Hou Yuxiao with him.

"There is no shortage. All martial arts can be promoted through my improvement. The current limit is second-rate martial arts. In the future, as my martial arts attainments deepen, it should be even higher!"

Hou Yuxiao still chose to keep a low profile and only said that he could be promoted to the second-rate martial arts. But even so, Hou Yucheng and the others were shocked. Even Hou Yuduan, who had always been calm, couldn't help but pace around. I muttered words.

"So, as long as it's martial arts, you can upgrade it to your elder brother. It doesn't matter if you're in the first or third rate, or even second or third rate, it will be useful to us. Maybe in the future, the higher your martial arts attainments are, the second rate can become a first rate, or even an underground one." Level, this...this..."

"I, Mr. Hou... are very happy!"

Hou Yuduan became a little incoherent and refused to say anything else. A rough voice next to him caught his words. It was the excited Hou Yucheng.

Looking at the excited four people, Hou Yuxiao did not suppress their excitement. He opened the fourth white petal in the county. When he learned about the function of martial arts promotion, his reaction was not much better than that of the four people in front of him.

After seeing the four people's faces slowly calm down, Hou Yuxiao spoke.

"Except for the Qinglong Stick Technique, the other seven martial arts have been entrusted to Yu Duan for safekeeping. After all, they are also mainstream martial arts and cannot be taught at will. I have drawn up the top ten leading martial arts of the Upper Hou Sect and the twelve highest rankings of the Lower Hou Sect. Leaders can choose two disciplines to practice, but as for the people under their command, each person can only choose one.

In addition, we must also set rules. Except for children, if anyone dares to teach to others privately, he will be regarded as a traitor to the Hou family. For nine days and ten places, no matter where he hides, our Hou family will also kill him! "

Hou Yuxiao's tone was very serious. The other four people, even the kind-hearted Hou Yuduan, did not refute his words, but showed signs of agreement.

Martial arts is indeed a very sensitive thing. The Hou family is not the first to establish the rule that it cannot be spread privately. This is true for every sect in the world.

"Currently, the clan's warriors are placed in four places, namely Houmen, Zhaoyang Iron Guard, Zhaoyang Escort Bureau... and Qinglonghui!"

When they heard about the Qinglong Meeting, both Hou Yujie and Hou Yuduan showed doubts. When Hou Yucheng saw this, he remembered that they had not gone to the county town, so he stepped forward to explain to them, and then they understood.

"Yucheng, your Zhaoyang Iron Guard is the largest, and the most junior warriors in the clan will be the first to join your side. The Hou Men, Zhaoyang Bodyguard Bureau, and Qinglong Society are related to the clan's industry, and they must be equipped with elite warriors, so they will all Select someone from your side. Currently, it only depends on their cultivation level. Once they reach the third level, they can be sent to the Houmen.

From now on, when there is no shortage of people, you will have to worry about the selection. It will not only look at the cultivation level, but also other aspects. For example, the Escort Bureau needs talents who can travel abroad; the Qinglong Society needs talents who are proficient in assassination. There is emphasis. "

After thinking for a while, Hou Yucheng understood what Hou Yuxiao meant, nodded to him and said, "The Hou family is led by the second and fourth sons. What about the Zhaoyang Escort Bureau and the Qinglong Society?"

Hou Yuxiao glanced at Lao Wu and said: "The escort agency is currently in the hands of Wang Gong, and the Qinglong Association is in charge of Gao Cheng. They are all staying in the county. Since these two items are family industries, they will naturally generate profits. Yu Duan will be responsible for this." Responsible for handing over to them.”

Hou Yuduan immediately understood what Hou Yuxiao meant and nodded towards him.

The finances of the clan are all under his control. Since there is profit, he must have helped with these two industries.

"In addition, the Qinglong Society is an assassination business, and it is easy to be hated by others. It is not appropriate for people to know its relationship with the family, so as not to attract criticism. You must keep this in mind and not disclose it to the outside world."

Assassination is about money rather than people. Generally speaking, as long as you have enough strength and enough money, you will dare to kill anyone. This kind of indiscriminate attack is indeed easy to be hated by people, so generally assassination organizations are hidden from the light. of.

The four of them naturally understood these things and nodded solemnly.

Hou Yuxiao finally calmed down and checked the merits of the Divine Lotus in his mind. In the county, he was promoted to the second-rate martial arts of the Thirteen Black Dragon Styles. Last night, he mastered the Three Techniques of Rapid Rain Sword Jue, Kuai Dao Jue, and Rainbow Shadow Whip Technique. The sect's martial arts was promoted to the third level, and he knew the merit points consumed by his martial arts promotion.

It is very cheap to be promoted from a non-class martial artist to a third-class martial artist, requiring only 300 merit points. However, to be promoted from a third-rate martial artist to a second-class martial artist is more than three times the amount and requires 1000 merit points.

Fortunately, when he came back from the county town, his merit surged to 3268 points. Counting his promotion to three martial arts schools yesterday, he still had 2368 points left.

Thinking of this, Hou Yuxiao glanced at Lao Wu first, and then said to Hou Yucheng and the others: "I don't expect to deliver the promotion documents and the family bronze seal until next month. In the next month, you will Collect low-quality martial arts in the city and send them all to me.

Seven third-rate martial arts schools are still a bit shabby..."

When the three of them heard this, their expressions suddenly became excited. After searching for low-level martial arts, Hou Yuxiao was going to be promoted to third-rate martial arts in large numbers.

There are so many martial arts in the world, and everyone has different strengths and talents. Take the five members of the Hou family as an example. The eldest brother Hou Yuxiao is good at sticks, the second child loves swords, Hou Yuling loves whips, Hou Yujie specializes in swords, and the fifth child is good at swords. , don't mention it...

It can be deduced from their five brothers and sisters that the only Qian warriors under the Hou family must have their own focuses. If they have enough martial arts, they will have a lot of room to choose, and it will be easier to find out where their talents are. This will help improve their strength. The help is not small.

Besides, I have traveled around the world and have many skills, but I have never heard of anyone looking down on those who have more martial arts knowledge.

"Okay, you three will go down first. Now, you all have errands in Houmen and Zhaoyang Iron Guard. You can go down and make up the rules yourself. It is up to you to figure out how to manage them. If you are really in trouble, come to me again, and don't make any mistakes in the future!"

"yes, Sir!"

All three bowed and left, leaving Hou Yuduan alone.

"You should take this money first!"

Hou Yuxiao took out a wad of silver notes from his arms and handed it to Hou Yuduan's hand.

Hou Yuduan took the banknote and was stunned for a moment. Hou Yuxiao brought a lot of money and goods with him this time, but the problem was that the county's expenses were not low. He had heard from his second brother and third sister that it was just a matter of taking care of things. The Daluo Sect spent one hundred thousand, and bought so many health-opening pills, and each of the four of them bought a Fanpinzhen and other weapons. He originally thought that the eldest brother might not have much money left. .

"40 million taels?"

Hou Yuduan finished counting the banknotes, and a look of surprise suddenly appeared in his eyes. The money Hou Yuxiao brought this time, even including the goods and gold, totaled more than 90 taels, but not talking about other things, the amount he had just brought The money that comes to mind should be half spent in total. If you count other places, you will definitely have to spend money.

How come there are still 40 taels...

"Okay, put it away. With these 40 taels, plus the clan's monthly income, there won't be any problems with the financial situation, right?"

Seeing Hou Yuduan's surprised look, Hou Yuxiao couldn't help but smile. It was really tough to spend money in the county this time, but it was really helpful to be unable to hold back the gold.

Moreover, the 5 taels he bet on Sacred Heart Residence also brought him a profit of 20 taels, so as of now, he still has more than 50 taels of silver left on him, and there is also a box Gold, he hadn't even exchanged it yet.

Hou Yuduan did not intend to ask so clearly, he immediately showed a smile, nodded and said: "According to the rules set by the eldest brother, the monthly consumption of the clan is 7 taels.

At present, the family's monthly business income is 4000 taels. Taking into account the share of the more than 20 businesses in the county that the third sister mentioned, about 1 taels can be accounted for every month, which adds up to 4000 taels.

Next, it depends on whether the Qinglong Society and the Escort Bureau can fill the gap of 6000 taels. If they can fill it, then the balance of payments will be achieved. If they can exceed it, the family will still have a monthly surplus. "

As soon as he came back yesterday, Hou Yuling explained all the business conditions in the county to him. After all, he was the accountant, so Hou Yuduan needed to know these conditions, so when Hou Yuxiao asked, these numbers came out naturally, and while talking to Hou Yuduan, Yu Duan's face also became happy.

When he was managing accounts in the past two years, he was not so well-off, but now he can have a surplus, so he is very happy.

Hou Yuxiao did not interrupt Lao Wu's happy expression, and waited until his face gradually calmed down, then he stared at Hou Yuduan's face and slowly asked: "Lao Wu, have you done anything recently? I?"

"No, I have been in the city all the time. I have nothing to hide from you, brother..."

There is definitely something wrong with this kid!

Although Hou Yuduan answered quickly enough, Hou Yuxiao still caught the fleeting panic on his face when he just asked.

It is impossible for merit to increase by more than 3000 for no reason. Even if Hou Yuduan is improving the lives of the people in Zhaoyang City, it will only increase by more than ten points every day. When Hou Yuxiao came back yesterday, he secretly checked it. He originally thought that Hou Yuduan had done some great good deeds. , it has increased so much, but after checking around, I found that it did not.

I just asked this question on purpose today. I didn’t expect that this guy wouldn’t tell the truth...

Hou Yuxiao watched him for more than ten breaths. Seeing that the expression on Hou Yuduan's face remained the same without any change, he smiled and said: "Okay, I remembered it wrong. I originally planned to ask your second brother, then You go down first!”

Hou Yuduan nodded, then said goodbye to Hou Yuxiao, turned around and left.

Returning to Hou Mansion Yaxiang Garden, Hou Yu entered his room, closed the door, and sat on the chair with a clang, a trace of sadness appearing on his face.

"Brother doesn't know, right? It shouldn't be... It shouldn't be... He has been staying in the county and has never come back. There is no way he knows..."
