The destiny of all heavens begins in the Red Chamber

Being able to conduct a real money transaction with Jia Huan and his group is already quite good.

Anyway, it doesn't matter who we sell the medicinal herbs we've stockpiled in the village to.

Without the Xiangxi Twin Ghosts taking a cut, they could earn even more.

Indeed, by this time Jia Huan realized that the Xiangxi Twin Ghosts were not a front man put forward by the chieftains.

Jia Huan used this opportunity to establish connections with the Tusi (chieftain) forces in western Hunan!

The chieftains were very grateful for Jia Huan's actions and considered him a friend they could make.

Of course, this is also related to Jia Huan's revelation that it is possible to purchase local specialties from the village where the chieftain resides on a large scale.

The chieftains were delighted to have a stable and large customer, while Jia Huan was satisfied to be able to obtain a continuous supply of precious medicinal herbs at low prices—it was a win-win situation.

Anyway, after all the trouble, when Jia Huan and his party finally left western Hunan, it was a full five days later. They returned with dozens of packhorses laden with goods.

Fortunately, the Beggars' Sect was well-informed in Hunan Province, and Jia Huan and his group contacted Yuezhou in time, thus preventing a major disturbance due to the delay.

However, after leaving the Xiangxi region, the Beggars' Gang members who accompanied them began to complain.

They felt that Jia Huan was too generous. What was rightfully theirs had been taken away by 60%, which they felt was unfair.

Jia Huan, however, didn't seem to care and chuckled as he asked, "If we don't get any benefits, can we leave Xiangxi unscathed?"

"Yes, our martial arts skills are indeed remarkable, and we can fight our way out, but who among you would be willing to die there?"

"Don't think that those chieftains only have so few men. If we push them too far, they might call in the soldiers from the nearby Pacification Commissioner's Office. What will we do then?"

"What do we need so much gold and silver for? Wouldn't it be better to exchange it for precious medicinal herbs?"

"Anyway, Hua Rong Xiang Tang only needs these precious medicinal herbs to help the brothers improve their martial arts training speed!"

"Also, if we establish good relations with those chieftains, we'll have a stable source of medicinal herbs!"

"Even if we don't use them ourselves, as medicine dealers, as long as we can transport these precious medicinal herbs from the mountains of western Hunan to Jiangling, we can make at least double the profit!"

In short, Jia Huan's explanation finally put his fellow Beggars' Clan members at ease.

To say I was particularly unhappy wouldn't be an exaggeration, since there were almost no casualties this time, and I even managed to gain a considerable amount of gold, silver, and precious medicinal herbs.

The reason for complaining is simply due to greed.

There was a slight sense of resentment, as one could have received more.

Jia Huan explained so patiently because he didn't want to ruin his family's reputation.

This trip to western Hunan can be described as quite successful.

Not only did he reap a considerable amount of spoils, but his reputation also rose significantly.

At least in the Yuezhou branch, Jia Huan's reputation has been completely established.

This is one of the reasons why he took the initiative to invite the various incense halls of the Yuezhou branch, as well as the brothers of the branch, to participate. It can be considered as gaining both fame and fortune.

"You did a great job, very well!"

Upon returning to the Yuezhou branch headquarters, Zhang Jinbie, who had almost fully recovered, nodded in satisfaction.

Honestly, if he were leading the team himself, he probably wouldn't be able to handle everything so well; at the very least, a fierce battle would be inevitable.

But once casualties occur, whether it's the chieftain of Xiangxi or the Beggars' Gang brothers, it's simply impossible to end things peacefully like Jia Huan did.

Not to mention, Jia Huan also opened up medicinal herb channels in western Hunan!

As a high-ranking member of the Beggars' Sect, he naturally knew just how important this medicinal herb supply was.

If used properly, it can not only earn a considerable amount of money, but also help the Beggars' Sect brothers improve their strength faster and better.

To put it bluntly, the Beggars' Sect is a Jianghu gang, and what they value most is their own martial prowess!

As for money, as long as we have enough military strength, we can always acquire it continuously.

Jia Huan recounted the entire course of his trip in detail.

Finally, he took out 30% of the remaining spoils and handed them over without any hesitation.

As for Hua Rong Xiang Tang, they received 10% of the spoils and half of the precious medicinal herbs!

Neither Zhang Jinbie nor the other Beggar Clan members who participated had any objections to this.

After all, Jia Huan was in charge of this operation and was also the one with the highest martial arts skills. It was already quite remarkable that he could restrain himself like this. Could we ask for more?

After Zhang Jinbie distributed the spoils, and all the Beggars' Clan brothers who had participated left the hall happily, Jia Huan then brought up another matter.

He took out a martial arts manual directly from his pocket. The cover clearly read "Poisonous Fiend Technique," and just by looking at the name, you could tell it wasn't a proper martial art.

Before Zhang Jinbie could speak, Jia Huan said in a deep voice, "Master, this martial arts manual was plundered from the lair of the Twin Ghosts in western Hunan. It is an absolutely vicious martial art!"

Zhang Jinbie's expression turned solemn as he carefully perused the contents of "Poisonous Fiend Technique," his shock growing ever stronger.

Clearly, the contents of the manual surprised him quite a bit.

"Master, there's a Five Poisons Sect in the southwest!"

Jia Huan said in a deep voice, "I'm worried that the Twin Ghosts of Xiangxi are related to the Five Poisons Sect!"

"And the Five Poisons Sect is one of the main branches of the Demonic Sect, its strength should not be underestimated!"

"I was worried that things might get complicated if I waited too long, which is why I quickly reached a deal with those three chieftains!"

"After all, the Demonic Sect is not to be trifled with; it's better to be safe than sorry!"

"Your concerns are very valid, and you've done an excellent job!"

Zhang Jinbie closed the manual, his face showing a solemn expression. He first acknowledged Jia Huan's actions before slowly saying, "The Five Poisons Sect's poison skills are renowned throughout the world. The situation of the Twin Ghosts of Xiangxi seems to be related to the Five Poisons Sect. It's quite good that you were able to react in time!"

"Just keep this in mind!"

"When you do business with the chieftains in western Hunan in the future, you should carefully investigate and make sure you don't really provoke the Five Poisons Sect, otherwise it will be quite troublesome to deal with!"

"Don't worry, Master, I know what to do. There won't be any problems!"

Chapter 419 A Surge in Momentum (Please Subscribe)

After the events in western Hunan, Jia Huan clearly felt that his position in the branch had become much higher.

That's right. Who would dare to ignore something that can bring tangible benefits to the brothers in the branch?

In particular, his practice of exchanging 30% of the spoils of war for precious medicinal herbs only became apparent after the assembled brothers from the branch had dispersed.

After all, those were real supplies, and the branch leaders wouldn't dare to embezzle them privately.

If you want to win over your subordinates, you should take the initiative to help the brothers in the incense hall who have good martial arts skills to quickly improve their strength and combat power.

The brothers in the various incense halls who benefited from the deal, besides thanking the incense master for his generosity, would certainly also remember Jia Huan's good deeds. This is how the potential influence spread.

As for the one or two dim-witted or greedy individuals, they simply pocketed the allocated precious medicinal herbs and sold them at high prices.

Such a person, unless he is a relative of someone in the middle or upper management, has absolutely no chance of advancing further.

Jia Huan, on the other hand, remained calm and used his superb medical skills to transform all the precious medicinal herbs he had been allocated into resources for his brothers to rapidly increase their strength.

He himself doesn't need these deliberate additions!

The advantage of breathing exercises is that they comprehensively improve physical fitness and allow for greater efficiency in utilizing the grains and other foods we eat.

As long as the three meals a day provide sufficient nutrition, there is no need for other means of deliberately supplementing it.

Fortunately, at this time, Huarong Xiangtang did not lack money or food for food.

They can even eat quite well, with plenty of meat, eggs, poultry, and dairy products.

However, in order not to attract too much attention, the meals they eat every day mainly consist of coarse grains.

As for meat, it is basically replaced by soup!

Various herbs are added to increase nutritional value and enhance the tonic effect, but the taste is not as delicious as simply eating meat or fried eggs.

The effect is quite obvious!

After nearly a year of training, all the able-bodied young men among the formal disciples under Xiangtang, as long as they did not cheat or shirk their duties, had at least reached the entry-level standard in the martial arts world.

The vast majority of the young and middle-aged disciples have reached the entry-level level in the martial arts world!

Don't underestimate people of this level in the martial arts world. Basically, all the low-level martial artists who dare to roam the martial arts world are at this level. Five or seven ordinary big men are no match for them.

It can only be said that in the world of low-level martial arts, the level of "Laughing at the World" is not high.

Here, one can quickly master external martial arts and, once they reach a certain level, become a mainstream martial artist. This is the main reason why so many of the young and strong brothers in the Xiangtang Sect have become mainstream martial artists.

If this were set in the world of Heaven Sword and Dragon Saber, how could such a good thing possibly happen?

Even the Vajra Sect of the Western Regions, which is known purely for its external martial arts, will begin to generate internal energy from the outside in once their external martial arts reach a high level.

Otherwise, how could external martial arts like the Vajra Palm and Vajra Finger become one of the 72 Shaolin Arts?

Do you really think that without the support of internal energy, it is so easy to leave a clear fingerprint on silver with just physical strength?

In the world of Heaven Sword and Dragon Saber, to become a mainstream martial artist, one must at least achieve a minor level of mastery in external martial arts, and the martial arts one practices cannot be of common or uncommon quality.

It's just a pity that the time was still too short!

Moreover, for some unknown reason, cultivating internal energy in the world of Swordsman is extremely difficult.

Otherwise, it would never happen that Linghu Chong, who, having lost all his martial arts skills and suffered severe injuries, could instantly blind fifteen first-rate and second-rate masters of the martial arts world simply by relying on the Dugu Nine Swords.
