The court lackeys of the eight-hour workday

Chapter 102 Quarrel
As soon as Cang Feifeng said this, the room suddenly became quiet.

Those who can come here to have this meal are all presentable people, so how could they really come here just to eat?
Although Cang Feifeng's move seemed a bit out of line, it actually matched the opinions of most people in the room. For a moment, everyone put down their chopsticks and looked at Yin Minjun.

Yin Minjun smiled and said, "Master Cang is quick to speak and indeed generous. This makes my Hengshan Sect look unhappy."

Cang Feifeng waved his hand and said, "Elder Yin's hospitality was good, and we all remember it in our hearts. But this matter has been delayed for so long, and more and more people have come. It's not certain that a demon or thief will sneak in and steal the magic skills. That would be bad."

"That's why I came here. No need to be polite. Let's decide what the rules are for tomorrow, shall we?"

As he spoke, he turned to look at the leaders of several major sects, including the Beggars' Sect, Qingcheng Sect, and Kongtong Sect.

The leader of the Beggars' Sect, Lao Qifeng, also spoke up and said, "Since Master Cang has already spoken, let me first talk about the Beggars' Sect's ideas. Let's not get into all the details about the rules. It would be more convenient to keep it simple."

"No matter which sect or force, those below third-rate will be kept outside."

"Half of those above third rate will be kept outside. No matter who comes later, they will be stopped. The other half will go in, each based on their ability."

"That's it, how about that?"

As soon as he said this, the head of the Qingcheng Sect snorted coldly: "Master Lao, you have a good idea. Everyone knows that you Beggars' Sect has a lot of people and the most experts here."

"If we send half of our people in, I'm afraid that the Beggars' Sect will have the final say. How can we have a say?"

"In my opinion, at least the number of people from our families entering should be about the same, so that we can say 'it all depends on our ability'."

"You!" Lao Qifeng was embarrassed for a moment when his thoughts were exposed so bluntly.

People from other factions also spoke up, each with their own plans. For a while, the situation became deadlocked.

They said they would have dinner together tonight to settle the matter. But if it was so simple, why would they delay the matter until now?

Yin Minjun did not participate either. She walked to Li Miao's side and whispered in his ear, "Sir, that's it."

"They keep arguing, and even though they know there will be no result, they are still unwilling to give in."

"And some are noisy."

Li Miao smiled.

Yin Minjun is talking without any concern, she is just a person who is only fifty steps away from the truth.

If Li Miao hadn't said that the Wedding Dress Magic Skill was useless to ordinary people, and that the Jinyiwei would back up the Hengshan Sect, so that they wouldn't lack martial arts in the future, she wouldn't have been watching the show like this, but would have started arguing with them long ago.

However, this is also human nature.

Like Liu Baiyun, after he defected to Li Miao, didn't he also show his ruthless face in Taishan?

I can only say that after I climbed ashore and saw the people still struggling in the river, I couldn't help but feel a sense of superiority that "I am no longer a nobody". I just said a few words behind their backs, which was considered restrained.

Yin Minjun looked over there and said, "Sir, it's too early to argue and come to a conclusion. You must be tired after traveling all the way."

"I have set up a tent in the back, would you like to go and rest for a while?"

Li Miao closed his eyes and replied, "No hurry, just watch the fun."

Yin Minjun just stood aside and said nothing more.

The quarrel lasted for most of the hour.

Lao Qifeng was talking so much that his mouth was dry, so he stepped back and poured a cup of tea to moisten his throat. As he was drinking, he glanced at the Hengshan Sect and was stunned.

Yes, the quarrel tonight was so intense that they almost came to blows, so why didn't the host, Hengshan Sect, make any noise? He glanced around to see what Yin Minjun was doing, but he saw Yin Minjun pouring a bowl of tea for Li Miao, and then standing beside him like a servant.

Lao Qifeng was a little puzzled: "Who is this person? What is Hengshan Sect planning?"

"Besides Deng Baixuan, the most senior person in Hengshan Sect is Yin Minjun. Judging from his appearance, he is only in his early thirties and doesn't look like a senior master. Why is he so respectful?"

As soon as he thought of it, he said, "Why doesn't Elder Yin say anything?"

"You are the host of the Hengshan Sect today, so you should be the first to make a decision. Why are you just standing by and watching?"

He intentionally drew everyone's attention to him, and he used his true energy when he said this. The shed was not big, and the sound spread out in a short time, causing everyone to turn their heads and look at Yin Minjun.

As the second most important person in Hengshan Sect, Yin Minjun was already used to this kind of situation. He immediately smiled and said, "We in Hengshan Sect have no objection."

When everyone heard this, they all frowned.

"Why are you pretending to be so noble? You, Yin Minjun, made a lot of noise in the past few days, right? Now you are pretending to be fine. Does it show that you are from the Hengshan Sect?"

"After we're done arguing, you can come out and act as the peacemaker, the one who has the final say, right?"

The head of the Qingcheng Sect spoke up: "Elder Yin, now is the time to gather ideas. Your Hengshan Sect is also a big sect that has a say in the southern martial arts world. What's the point of standing aside and watching the fun?"

"If you have any ideas, please speak up. Otherwise, we will set the rules later and we will not allow your Hengshan Sect to change its mind."

Yin Minjun smiled and said, "I don't mean to watch you guys having fun."

"Now that we have come to this, let me tell you what my Hengshan Sect means."

She turned to look at Li Miao, and seeing that Li Miao had no intention of speaking, she continued.

"My Hengshan Sect will not be involved in this matter."

"What!?" Everyone was surprised.

"Are you joking, Elder Yin?" Lao Qifeng frowned and looked at Yin Minjun.

You Hengshan sent so many people, and you, the second-in-command, spent more than half a month here, spending so much manpower and material resources, and now you say you won't participate? Who would believe it?
Could it be that he was planning to let us go in and fight to the death while he himself stayed outside to preserve his strength so that he could reap the benefits?

They didn't know that Yin Minjun's words were actually a retreat in order to advance.

As expected, looking at the suspicious eyes of the crowd, Yin Minjun sighed: "We in the Hengshan Sect just heard that something happened here, and we are afraid that there will be trouble, so we came to take a look based on the principles of Jianghu ethics."

"Since you don't believe me, let me tell you about the Hengshan Sect's rules."

Yin Minjun stretched out her hand and drew everyone's attention to Li Miao.

"Tomorrow, only three people from my Hengshan Sect will go in. And we will definitely not compete with you. I'll put this here, and you can all bear witness to it."

"The three people who went in were me and two of my friends from the Hengshan Sect."

"With me inside, you don't have to worry about my Hengshan Sect doing anything outside."

Everyone looked at Li Miao.

Lao Qifeng clasped his fists towards Li Miao and said, "I think this person went in with Elder Yin."

"My friend looks unfamiliar, why didn't you ask for advice?"
