Chapter 414 Chen's Supervisory Agency Martial Arts Association Restarts

November.

Dulonggang outside Tianhe County is particularly lively.

A large number of workers were busy working, and there were various vendors pushing small carts to sell things. There was a huge flow of people coming and going, mostly people carrying knives and swords. They were generous with their spending and their consumption was particularly fierce.

The white silver and the clattering copper coins echoed in this building that was being built at a rapid pace.

Zhao Hu, who has bright red hair and muscular muscles, is using simplified figures to calculate the cement cost for this construction period. "Some numbers don't add up."

He frowned, and a fierce aura belonging to a warrior could not help but exude.

"Call all the contractors for this area."

The guard next to him ran out immediately.

Zhao Hu stopped writing, put his pen down, and looked at the door of the room with cold eyes.

soon.

The guard came back with a dozen people.

These dozen or so people are all businessmen who contracted the left half of the martial arts arena this time. They are more or less businessmen with connections and financial resources.

But after they arrived, none of them dared to be presumptuous. Instead, they all respectfully said to Zhao Hu, "Master Zhao."

However, there was no one trying to get close to him, and they could still tell that Zhao Hu looked wrong.

Zhao Hu knocked on the table and winked. The swordsman and penman next to him immediately handed out the paper, "Let's take a look."

The dozen or so people finished reading it in a short time, with different expressions and expressions. Only one of them looked as usual, without any change.

"Tell me, who did it and how to solve it?"

"Sir, this has nothing to do with us. In fact, the current labor price has always been high, and the delay in the construction period is foreseeable."

"Yes, there are still people in that gang who are misbehaving and blackmailing me!"

"There are damn human resources agencies inside that take the money..."

"..."

There are all kinds of reasons, some true and some false.

Zhao Hu frowned. He didn't like doing these people's livelihood affairs very much. He preferred to continue killing enemies on the battlefield, but the master put him in a place like this just to train him. He knew this very well.

Therefore, in order to live up to the expectations of adults, there are still some things that must be done~

Bang!

Zhao Hu slammed the table and glanced around with a pair of tiger eyes. His bright red hair even looked a little arrogant, "I'm not discussing with you, let alone listening to your complaints. Cost, expense, construction period, everything is counted. Clearly, if you can't solve the problem by pushing back and forth for so much profit, then it's because you can't do it yourself. If you can't do it yourself, then give way and replace it!"

"As long as it is beneficial, there are many businessmen in the world, and there is no shortage of you!"

The translation is, do it if you like it or get out of it.

More than a dozen big businessmen were stunned. No one expected that the barbarian in front of them would dare to talk to them like this.

To be honest, this kind of thing has only been said to the workers under them. I didn’t expect someone to say it today!

You must know that although they are scholars, peasants, industry and merchants, in reality the actual status of merchants is above workers and peasants. Only those scholars and warriors are above them, especially big merchants like them. Well, vendors and so on are not merchants.

Therefore, if it were any other time, they would turn around and leave, and they would even teach this person a lesson.

But it happened that the person in front of them had a background that they couldn't afford to offend.

Everyone's eyes were on the Chen-character seal on Zhao Hu's chest and the bronze medal with the character Zhao.

Chen Zizhang means that he belongs to a certain core figure of the Chen family. The bronze medal with his own surname is one of the three honors of heaven, earth and man. It is a military merit and has the same status as a low-ranking official. .

Since ancient times, there has been a saying that the people will not fight with the officials...

so……

Their eyes turned to one of the leaders, the man who had remained calm from the beginning.

"How about you give me some face and relax a little bit about this?"

He stood up, and although his tone was gentle, his arrogance could not be concealed at all.

"Who are you?"

The man raised his head slightly and said, "I'm not talented. My surname is Chen. I'm from the Tai family."

The group of businessmen behind them all smiled. This was the reason they dared to do this. What they did was not too excessive. They also pulled a child of the Chen family into the water in advance and gave him some gifts afterwards. They admitted their mistake and gave him enough. To save face, as long as the person in charge of the project knows a little bit about the world, this matter will be over.

This trick can be said to be invincible and quite useful.

Zhao Hu's face twitched, the situation he was most afraid of appeared.

If it were the fifth family, or the Xiao family, or even the Ning family, he would dare to go directly against it, because they were just a family that became prominent after vassaling the Chen family, and even the Ning family was just the father-in-law's family, and they didn't move around much. , Therefore, having a hard head does not mean that it cannot be carried.

But if it's Chen...

Seeing Zhao Hu hesitate.

Display smiled, his expression becoming more and more proud. His status in the clan could only be said to be middle-lower, but outside, even officials with high rankings had to give him face.

But.

Zhao Hu took a deep breath, thinking of the mission given to him by Master Deng, and his sister beside Master Deng, his heart hardened again.

"What's your name?" Zhao Hu asked coldly.

"Um?"

Chen Chen frowned, "Zhen Chen, Chen Tailie, how are you doing?"

"Article 6 of the Chen Clan Rules: Do not collude with others to harm..."

"Article 9: You must not bully others by taking advantage of your power, violate laws or regulations..."

"..."

Zhao Hu's voice was cold, but Chen Chen's body was even colder at the moment.

This guy, how does this guy know the rules of my Chen clan?

what to do?

If he is reported back, the clan will definitely punish him severely.

Damn it!

"Your Excellency, which one do you think you have committed? Oh, by the way, I remember that County Magistrate Chen Dengchen once said that all the children of the Chen family who break the law will be guilty of the same crime. Do you understand?"

Zhao Hu stood up, moved closer, and stared at the display.

Display couldn't help but take a few steps back.

"That's all, I just came to take a look. I have no intention of interfering with your thoughts. Take my leave."

He said that he left in a hurry, regardless of the attempts of the merchants behind him to stay, his figure somewhat embarrassed.

Zhao Hu breathed a sigh of relief.

Although this guy is obviously inexperienced and half-new, the identity of the other party does put a lot of pressure on him.

Fortunately, I was fooled.

Now that the troublesome person is gone, it's time for some people to take a long time to remember.

Zhao Hu looked over coldly.

The businessmen forced a smile and said, "Um, sir, would you like some tea?"

…

Tianhe County Government.

Chen Deng enjoyed his concubine's service and rubbed his shoulders.

As a core member of the Chen family, in compliance with family policy, he married four wives, oh no, to be precise, one wife and three concubines.

There are three concubines from all ethnic groups. One from the Gu tribe is good at singing and dancing. She wears silver bells and other accessories and looks very lively. One from the Baiyi tribe is very capable and always shares his worries. When he returns home, He is obedient and obedient; he is a member of the Yan clan, passionate and heroic.

To be honest, as a scholar, he only practiced martial arts under the compulsory requirements of his clan and barely reached the level of flesh and blood.

Facing these four women, he sometimes really felt like he couldn't bear it.

So far, he has had seven children, nine if you count the two who died in infancy!

"Ah, Patriarch, Patriarch, why don't you accept a few more yourself?"

Chen Deng cursed a little.

Of course, he could understand it. After all, the patriarch had to take care of his cultivation, so he didn't have so much time for beauty. As for marriage, the Chen family obviously no longer needed it, and no one could allow them to marry.

In fact, Chen Deng didn't know how much time Chen Nuo spent playing with the servants Ning Hongye recruited for him. The song and dance troupe composed of the servants is still in Chen's backyard.

As for why I don’t take concubines…

It can only be said that the current Chen Nuo is no longer the weak one he was when he was a child. He lacks the link of sharing hardships and comes from poverty. Except for Ning Hongye and Wang Qingxuan, Chen Nuo does not trust other people beside him.

At this time, Chen Deng's concubine Zhao Li of the Yan tribe came over and said, "Master."

"Lili, what's wrong?"

Plop!

Zhao Li suddenly knelt down.

Chen Deng frowned, but did not rush to let the other party stand up. Instead, he straightened up and said in a deep voice, "Speak."

Zhao Li immediately told what her brother Zhao Hu had done.

She and her younger brother Zhao Hu both entered the Chen family when they had just established themselves and started looking for slaves and refugees to build cement roads.

Their family is from a village in the Yan tribe. Their mother, Zhao Ning, is the wife of the village owner. They are somewhat of a minor status. Unfortunately, due to natural and man-made disasters, no matter what, their family became refugees and suffered from hunger.

The mother was even ready to sell herself to the overseer just for a bite to eat. At this moment, Chen Deng appeared like a god descending from the earth and chopped off the overseer's head with a knife. (Dragon Snake Rises Land Scroll Chapter 13)

From that moment on, she made up her mind to marry such a hero.

After years of hard work, she succeeded.

And his younger brother also successfully became Chen Deng's confidant because of his meritorious service in the army.

But what her brother did this time frightened her. He was a child named Chen!

I am just a concubine...

Therefore, in panic, she decided to be honest and let Chen Deng lose his temper.

Chen Deng's brows softened slightly after hearing the whole thing, and then tightened again.

He didn't think Zhao Hu was wrong, he just discovered a problem.

Questions about Chen.

Zhao Li, who was still kneeling, couldn't help but tremble a little.

As a member of the Yan Clan, there is no sense of security.

For a long time, the Yan tribe had no right to speak. They were a nation that relied on the Yue people to gain a foothold. There was no way around it, because apart from being stronger, their tribe had no foundation.

Therefore, the Yan tribe can be said to be the Yue people, or the best vassal nation of the main dynasty in the Central Plains.

This also created the inferiority complex of this nation at certain times.

Seeing Zhao Li shivering, without any of her usual heroic demeanor, helplessness flashed in Chen Deng's eyes, "Okay, stand up, it's okay."

"I know Chen Chen, that boy has no ability, but now he is using his status to show off his power. Haha, impetuousness has been rising in the family recently."

"Tell Zhao Hu and let him do it with confidence and boldness. The Tiannan Martial Arts Arena was personally ordered by the clan leader. It is to be built as a future economic building and a publicity and cultural building. Anyone who dares to cause trouble inside will be punished. Gotta die!”

"As for me, it is necessary to go to the clan leader now."

After saying that, Chen Deng stood up, straightened his clothes and walked towards the Chen residence.

soon.

The Chen clan issued a policy and established an organization.

The clan law department, which was established by several prestigious and old-fashioned elders and some young martial arts disciples, was specially established to investigate clan members who used the Chen family's name to show off their power and make illegal profits. Once caught, they would be severely punished.

Of course, they would not die, but they would suffer physical pain, imprisonment, and punishment.

As soon as it was launched, thirteen clan members were arrested, including young and middle-aged people. For a while, all kinds of people came to plead for mercy. After all, they were clansmen, and they were all relatives. They could always find someone to plead for mercy.

Even Chen Yong was the best person to touch the relationship!

As a result, Chen Yong slapped the man out with a slap.

The core clan members were not confused. They knew that the clan leader was serious this time, otherwise they would not have established such an organization.

Anyway, he would not die, and his family would not worry. He would be punished. He deserved it.

Therefore, this incident did not cause much disturbance in the clan. Instead, it brought many benefits. It corrected the family tradition and restored the clan's reputation. Many hidden dangers that could have been solved at the beginning could be solved at the beginning.

As for this institution itself, Chen Nuo would check it from time to time to ensure its purity.

So far, no one dared to use any tricks in the construction of the martial arts arena.

At the end of November, it was finally completed.

A large martial arts arena covering an area of ​​nearly 10,000 square meters and accommodating tens of thousands of people was completely completed and stood on Dulonggang.

Chen Nuo personally wrote the four characters "Tiannan Martial Arts Association" on its plaque, painted it in gold and hung it high.

And announced the restart of Tiannan Martial Arts Association!

The construction of this large martial arts arena mobilized all the slaves and construction teams of the Chen family, and even many warriors participated in it. It took more than a month to build it.

If it were not for the warriors, who were thick-skinned and could break rocks, the construction period would have to be extended to at least half a year.

In fact, there are still some parts of this building that are not perfect, but it is basically completed and can be put into use.

The main body of the martial arts venue is rectangular, or parallelogram, but the core part inside is mainly circular, and there are large empty areas reserved for accommodation areas, commercial areas, etc.

It is still empty at present.

But Chen has been preparing to auction it off, and this move is not surprising. It is welcomed by the business community and major families, sects, and gangs.

Anyone with a little foresight can see how much money this building will attract. If you open a shop in such a place, you can make money no matter what you do!

Absolutely prime location!

Naturally, people will start to scramble for it.
