Chapter 307: Recruiting a Disciple
The Flying Tiger Zhou You accepted a disciple.

After the news came out, an insider retorted, "What apprentice? He's obviously my brother-in-law!"

Qi Fengzhang valued this junior fellow apprentice and in order to win him over, he even offered him a clan daughter in marriage, making many young warriors envious.

There are even rumors that Lu Jianqing, who also graduated from Jianxiong Martial Arts School, once made a request to Qi Fengzhang, thinking that he could get the same treatment.

The one he has his eyes on is Qi Fengzi!

Unexpectedly, Qi Fengzhang decisively rejected Lu Jianqing and had no intention of winning him over at all.

Anyone with a discerning eye knows that Lu Jianqing is the successor of Wang Lao Hu and will inherit the martial arts school and even join a sect in the future.

The Qi family cannot bribe such a person, and there is no need to fall out with Wang Lao Hu over this.

Tiger Tai Sui's infatuation had to go to waste.

When people in the martial arts industry heard about Zhou You's story, they all secretly sighed that the kid was lucky. If they gave him twenty years, he would become a powerful warrior again.

Some people even unconsciously call Zhou You "little tiger" to distinguish him from Wang Lao Hu.

Wang Jianxiong opened a martial arts school in Gongliang City, and he had the support of a noble family behind him. Zhou You now has the same support as well. He has a close relationship with the third son of the powerful Qi family and is even going to become his brother-in-law.

Wang Lao Hu accepted the man from the Qi family as his disciple, and Zhou You also accepted one.

Comparing the two, the two are surprisingly similar. The path Zhou You is taking now is a 1:1 replica of Wang Lao Hu.

"It's a good thing that the master and the disciple broke up. Otherwise, in a few decades, there would be no place for our martial arts in Gongliang City. The Tiger Fist would dominate the martial arts world."

The owners of various martial arts schools sighed repeatedly, regretting that they did not have such talents among their disciples.

Not only did he improve rapidly in boxing, but he was also very good at scheming. After being kicked out of the martial arts school, he quickly climbed up the social ladder with the children of aristocratic families. Luckily for him, the person he depended on, Qi Fengzhang, had a turn of events and replaced his brother Qi Fengxiao.

With perfect strength, means and luck, he achieved a hundred consecutive jumps in a short time, surpassing hundreds of thousands of his peers in Gongliang City!

This is how the outside world views Zhou You.

When Zhou You’s parents heard the news from outside, they were in a daze and couldn’t believe it, as if they were workers who had won the first prize of the Double Color Ball.

My son is getting married, and his spouse is the Qi family, a wealthy family in the city. Oh my God, this must be a dream!

Everyone around them said it was true, and my son didn't deny it, but they just wouldn't believe it.

Alas, sometimes being too happy is not good!
Zhou You tried his best to persuade his parents not to worry, as the fate was still not decided.

He began to take the impact of this matter seriously, picked a day, and invited several relatives and friends to watch the ceremony.

"Look everyone, this is my apprentice, Qi Qingdi."

A small banquet was held at home, and only fellow disciples were invited, with no other outsiders.

The oil seller Song Fugui is now a wealthy boss with a mustache and a plump figure.

Although business has been bad recently, there is no sign of dejection on his face. He smiles whenever he meets everyone and looks quite festive.

He sent a jar of sesame oil as a gift, which was of the best quality with a bright yellow color.

"Brother Jiang Hua, I didn't expect you to be here too."

Compared to the last time they met, Jiang Hua's face was paler. His gift was a golden crown made of pure gold in the shape of a lotus.

He coughed and said, "I just came back from the capital. I came here when I heard the news."

After a few words, he emphasized to Zhou You, "Move as soon as possible. Fucheng is a good place."

He also received the message, reminding Zhou You to prepare for a retreat as soon as possible and move to the provincial capital before Gongliang City was destroyed.

Zhou You nodded and said, "See you in the capital city in the future, and have a gathering with Senior Brother Jiang again."

Hearing this, Jiang Hua knew that Zhou You was not going to fight to the death. Then, the lazy tiger Shi Gaofei also came.

The senior brother was carrying several kilograms of dark dried meat. "Junior Brother Zhou, sorry to bother you. Here you go."

Zuo Twelve, who was standing by, came forward and took the dried meat he brought, taking a few more looks at it out of curiosity.

Zhou You was also curious. This Senior Brother Lazy Tiger dared to come to his house. Wasn’t he afraid that Wang Lao Hu would find out and punish him later?

After Shi Gaofei took his seat, Zuo Shier quietly reminded Zhou You, "What he gave was a tiger whip."

Those long, wind-dried strips of meat were actually tiger penises.

There are as many as forty or fifty of them!
Zhou Youzhuan turned his head and looked in the direction of Shi Gaofei. The other party noticed it and nodded at him, indicating that he could enjoy it.

It is not easy to get so many tiger penises, and it is also a token of my thoughtfulness.

Soon, all the invited guests arrived, except Shen Sijing, who had something going on at home and sent someone to deliver a gift.

"Qi Qingdi, you are my Double-Body Tiger Form Fist, the first disciple of the sect. These are your elders. Come and toast to them."

All the guests felt a little uncomfortable. The other party was a member of the Qi family, whether from the direct or side branch, and his status was far more noble than theirs.

Fortunately, Qi Qingdi was also sensible. He raised his glass and saluted with a very sincere attitude.

The atmosphere gradually became harmonious!

At the banquet, Zhou You thought of Shen Sijing and said, "It's a pity that Senior Brother Shen is not here..."

As soon as these words came out, the atmosphere suddenly became a little cold.

Zhou You sensed something was wrong and asked hurriedly, only to find out that the Shen family's business was in trouble, and it was a big trouble.

Recently, there have been rebel troops sweeping in all directions outside the city, attacking manors and towns, almost like locusts.

Gathering points everywhere fell one after another, wealth was looted, and the people became refugees.

At the most dangerous time, standing on the top of Gongliang City, you could see the bloody scenes of rebel soldiers burning settlements and executing rebels.

The rebels were about to reach the outside of the city.

The two great families issued a "war order", and the resources and manpower in the city were allocated in a unified manner. They were required to obey the overall situation, and those who disobeyed would be killed.

Anyone holding the order to go to war is qualified to guard a section of the city wall and allocate resources in the city.

"An order to start the war."

Zhou You thought of the token in his sleeve and remembered that this thing was called this?
Anyone who could get the order to go to war was a powerful person in the city. For example, the owners of martial arts schools like Wang Lao Hu and Mao Lao Liu had disciples and followers who could be organized into an army. They were good at working together and had great combat effectiveness.

Next are the major guilds, which have sufficient resources and manpower and are also qualified to accept the war order.

As a member of the Shen Family Trading Company Chamber of Commerce, it would be enough to provide some money, food and manpower.

However, in troubled times, order is broken and it is common for big fish to swallow small fish.

The Chamber of Commerce was allocated 3 war orders this time, and the holder of one of them intended to annex the Shen Family Business.

This company is called Hongmao Trading Company. The owner is named Zhang Hongmao, who is in his early fifties. He once wanted to marry into the Shen family, but his only son was mentally retarded and fat, and the younger sister of the Shen family really disliked him and refused.

There was no unpleasantness at that time, but I didn't expect that Zhang Hongmao was a vengeful person and he endured it until today.

In the name of declaring war, he has forcibly confiscated the Shen family's business and taken away the Shen family's shops, funds and warehouses.

That's not all, the old man proposed to "renew the old relationship", and this time it was not his silly son who was going to marry the younger sister of the Shen family, because his silly son had already married, and he would be the groom.

The old guy is dreaming of having both wealth and beauty, but his heart is still young.
