Starting from a short stick, becoming the master of the universe

Chapter 94 Meeting the Master

"How do you know that the stall fee is going to increase again?" Jiang Cheng looked at him in surprise.

"Of course it's gossip."

Lu Zicheng smiled bitterly, "Many people were saying this morning that after the Iron Fist Gang arrives, the booth fee will be raised to 2500, and some are saying it will be raised to 3000. By the way, not only the booth fee, but also the management fee will increase."

"The management fee will continue to increase?" Jiang Cheng's face changed.

He is a senior member of the boxing gym and is not affected.

But after Mrs. Chen came back, she had to pay on time, not a penny less.

"Yes, I heard that it will increase by 30% based on last month." Lu Zicheng's face also drooped.

Jiang Cheng's pupils dilated slightly. Doesn't that mean 2300 per month?

Based on the original 1,000 yuan per month, it has more than doubled?
But last month was a special case. The Wild Wolf Gang wanted to reap a temporary price increase before leaving. How could the Iron Fist Gang use this as a basis?

Isn't this leaving people no way to survive?

Suddenly, he thought of something and asked, "Are the fees for the streets managed by the Iron Fist Gang also so high?"

"No, it's the same as before. The booth fee is 2,000 and the management fee is 1,000. I don't think it's that high. I suspect someone is deliberately spreading false information to scare everyone."

Lu Zicheng whispered:

"Then when people really come, we lower the price so that everyone feels they are getting a good deal. I remember very clearly that before the Wild Wolf Gang came, they also used this method. It was all a trick."

"Yeah." Jiang Cheng nodded.

He also felt that these so-called rumors were most likely spread by the Iron Fist Gang.

But what is certain is that the money they ask for by then will definitely not be less than that of the Wild Wolf Gang.

The news continued to ferment. In the evening, when Jiang Cheng was pushing his tricycle back home, he heard many people around him sighing.

Who knew that the Wild Wolf Gang was so cunning and would run away just a few days after collecting the management fee.

After a few days, people from the Iron Fist Gang arrived and demanded another management fee, which was even more than last time!
In order to collect the last sum of money, many people scraped together money from all over. Now that they need another sum of money, what should they do?
Two days passed and no one from the Iron Fist Gang showed up. The tense atmosphere in the slums eased slightly.

Flying Eagle Boxing Gym.

In the training room.

Jiang Cheng held two sticks and fought with Zeng Zhiteng who also held two sticks.

After a few days of special training, Shuanggun's experience bar was reduced to half, and his skills also improved.

A few days ago, the two sides were basically 80-20, but now it is 40-60.

After a while, the two figures separated.

Jiang Cheng glanced at the clock on the wall and said with a smile, "Brother Zeng, let's stop here today. Thank you for your guidance this morning."

"You're welcome, Junior Brother Jiang."

Zeng Zhiteng took off the protective gear on his head and suddenly said, "Junior Brother Jiang, are you free later?"

Jiang Cheng nodded, "Yes, what's wrong, Brother Zeng?"

"That's great. I'll take you to see the owner."

"!!!"

Jiangcheng was caught off guard.

He was still thinking in his mind that if he maintained this efficiency, it might take him another week to master the double sticks. By then, he should be able to defeat this senior brother Zeng eight times out of ten. By then, he would be able to meet the owner of the gym.

As a result, it is possible now?
"Very surprised?"

Zeng Zhiteng smiled for the first time. "I did say that once you beat me with your stick skills, I would take you to see the master and let him teach you. But you have made great progress in the past few days. It may not take long for you to beat me. In that case, why do we have to wait until that day?"

"Senior Brother Zeng..."

Jiang Cheng was both delighted and moved when he heard this.

I didn’t expect that Brother Zeng, who seemed aloof, also had a flexible side.

Yes, the sooner you can meet the gym owner, the sooner you can get in touch with the secret weapon.

"Junior Brother Jiang, don't get excited yet."

Zeng Zhiteng shook his head. "Even if I can take you to see the owner, it's still unclear whether the owner is willing to guide you. It all depends on your own luck."

"Understood. Thank you, Brother Zeng."

Jiang Cheng expressed his gratitude from the bottom of his heart.

"Well, come with me. I've already said hello to the owner of the gym." After a while, the two men took off their protective gear, put down their weapons, and walked out the door.

"Junior Brother Jiang!"

"Junior Brother Jiang, would you like to have a meal together?"

Lin Quanliang and his companions had not left yet, and when they saw this, they all greeted them.

"No, Senior Brother Lin, you guys go eat, I have something else to do."

Jiang Cheng smiled apologetically.

"Anything else?"

Several people were confused.

It was not until they saw Jiang Cheng following Zeng Zhiteng up the stairs to the third floor that they all froze in place.

It was not until Jiang Cheng's back disappeared that the few people came to their senses.

"Junior Brother Jiang, has he gone up to the third floor?"

Lin Quanliang opened his eyes wide, as if he was talking to himself, or as if he was asking the people around him.

"Go up, are you going up?"

Tan Lei hesitated.

"And it was Senior Brother Zeng who brought him up." Sun Xiaoli also opened her mouth wide.

You know, she has such a good relationship with Senior Sister Bai, and she didn't dare to go up because of the rules of the boxing gym.

But Jiang Cheng went up.

"I understand. Senior Brother Zeng said that if Junior Brother Jiang's stick skills surpass his one day, he will take Junior Brother Jiang to see the master, so..."

At this moment, everyone understood.

I was shocked and envious, but the latter was more common.

"Junior Brother Jiang, is he going to be very successful?" Lin Quanliang asked in a complicated tone.

"Brother Lin, I'm afraid we really have to change our name and call him Brother Jiang from now on."

As soon as the words fell, the surroundings suddenly became quiet.

Jiang Cheng followed Zeng Zhiteng obediently, feeling a little nervous.

Will everything really go as smoothly as I imagined, and will I be accepted as a core disciple?
It should be unlikely. This kind of thing will definitely require a period of observation, but as long as it can attract the attention of the museum owner, there is hope.

The two came to a wooden door and could vaguely hear voices coming from inside.

"Master, I'm here with Junior Brother Jiang."

Zeng Zhiteng raised his hand and knocked on the door twice, saying.

"Bring him in."

A loud old man's voice sounded.

Jiang Cheng's heart suddenly rose.

"Click."

The door opens.

As soon as Jiang Cheng stepped in, he felt a sharp gaze staring at him.

"Master."

Zeng Zhiteng bowed.

"Greetings, Master." Jiang Cheng also saluted with his fists.

"Ah."

The old man nodded, retracted his gaze from Jiang Cheng, and looked at Zeng Zhiteng, "Is this the person you brought to me?"

"Yes, Master."

Zeng Zhiteng said, "Junior Brother Jiang is very talented. I have been practicing stick fighting with him these past few days. He has made rapid progress. In a few days, I think he will be able to surpass me in double stick fighting. As for the pile fighting, I heard from Senior Brother Zhao that it took Junior Brother Jiang more than two weeks to go from being completely clueless to being proficient in it."

"Oh? Let me take a look."

As the old man spoke, he walked over and reached out to grab Jiang Cheng's shoulder.
