Gao Wuming: From Dockworker to Physical Achievement

Chapter 112 Let's polish it up

Hearing Huo Qing speak so highly of Wen Xueyun...

Choi Yoo-gong silently labeled the girl with a tag that emphasized ingratiating himself.

This person might just be the second greatest martial artist in the world after Master Huo.

He continued playing chess with Huo Qing, occasionally pouring him tea, acting like a servant.

However, Choi Yoo-gong also had his own principles of conduct. If he needed someone's help, he should not worry about saving face and should never be pretentious. He should try to please them as much as possible.

He was even thinking about how to give Wen Xueyun a gift later.

Girls of this age would probably like gold and silver jewelry, cosmetics, and the like.

Even though the other party seemed to only care about martial arts, he would still care, so he had to choose the best to send.

Just then, the sound of car wheels came from outside.

They stopped outside the bamboo grove, and then footsteps came from outside.

"Who is this person who has come to Master Huo's place?" Cui Yougong frowned.

Although Master Huo was in Tianhai, only a handful of people knew his exact whereabouts.

"Grandmaster, I'll go take a look."

Without Huo Qing needing to speak, Cui Yougong immediately stood up and strode out.

He wanted to see who had come looking for Master Huo and whether he could send them back.

After all, the other party's purpose in coming to see Master Huo was definitely to curry favor.

He can handle this kind of thing on his own; how can he let a second person try to please him?

Before he could take more than a few steps, a person jogged in from outside the bamboo grove.

Cui Yougong focused his gaze on the other person's face and recognized his identity.

It turned out to be Vice Governor-General Wang Ping.

Why is this guy not licking the boots of foreigners in Tianhai, but instead coming here to do something else?

Cui Yougong frowned.

His mouth just started to move as if he was about to speak.

As soon as he saw Wang Ping jogging, he bent down and knelt on the ground, using the momentum to slide to Master Huo's side.

This resulted in a sliding kneeling motion.

"Please, Master Huo, save my life!" Wang Ping knelt before Huo Qing and immediately began to weep profusely.

Huo Qing knew several of Tianjin Tianhai's senior officials.

He also knew that Wang Ping was close to foreigners.

He frowned. "What could possibly make a deputy governor act like this? You have no backbone at all. Besides, why are you looking for me? Why don't you go find a foreigner?"

"Foreigners are foreigners after all. Those who are not of our race will surely have different hearts. I didn't understand before, but now I finally understand. I beg the Grandmaster to give me a chance. From tonight onwards, I will definitely put all my heart into the Great Xuan and the people."

Wang Ping shouted, his face streaked with tears, appearing extremely sincere.

After all, he was an official of the Great Xuan Dynasty, the Deputy Governor of Tianhai.

Huo Qing didn't press the matter, but instead asked, "What exactly happened, and who wants to harm you? Is the Fighting Association going to kill you?"

But you have a good relationship with foreigners, don't you?

Wang Ping said, "He's not a foreigner, but a very powerful young man. I offended him in some of my previous business dealings, and he might take my life."

Huo Qing became interested and said, "What kind of young man is a deputy governor who could frighten you?"

Cui Yougong was originally thinking that Wang Ping would compete with him in trying to curry favor with Master Huo.

Unexpectedly, they came seeking help.

My curiosity was naturally piqued.

Although Wang Ping was the deputy governor-general, he managed the governor-general's office so well that he could even sideline Wang Ping.

Although he came to this remote place every day to curry favor with Master Huo, he did not care about anything else.

But it also shows that Wang Ping is capable.

What was the situation of that young man who frightened him so much that he came to Master Huo's side?

There are plenty of martial arts practitioners in Tianhai, so why bother asking Master Huo for help?

For a long time, Cui Yougong stopped paying attention to Tianhai's affairs, whether it was daily business or various events that happened in Tianhai.

The last time I read a newspaper was when I accompanied Master Huo on a trip to Tianhai.

The above-mentioned dock has a group of people who are on strike and demanding better treatment from the foreigners.

Normally, such things would definitely be suppressed.

Although the request is reasonable, it disrupts the situation and cannot be ignored.

But he wasn't in charge at the time, so he just glanced at it and forgot about it without looking into it carefully.

Unexpectedly, only two months had passed, and a situation arose that forced Wang Ping to kneel down and beg for help.

I don't know who they are.

Wang Ping took a deep breath and began to speak.

He had already prepared a draft in his mind when he arrived.

So, when you talk about it, it's very smooth.

The story of Chen Yi begins at the docks, progresses to killing martial arts instructors, replacing the Green Gang, going on strike, eliminating opium dens, executing opium den owners, clashing with the police, and killing foreigners.

Ultimately, they clashed with the foreigners at the dock.

He told Chen Yi everything he knew without embellishing anything.

After all, these things can be seen from the newspapers later.

He concealed his own situation and persuaded Yuan An and Chen Yi to take action, providing information to the Fighting Association.

These are things that few people know, and the Westerners would never publicize them.

Regarding his conflict with Chen Yi, he only said that he had turned a blind eye to the White Opium Den.

Seeing Chen Yi's murderous intent now, he fears that Chen Yi will kill him later.

"I'm afraid it's more than that. You also get a share of the profits from the White Tobacco Pavilion, don't you?" Huo Qing said.

Wang Ping gave an awkward smile and said, "What the Grandmaster said is true. I also profited from those brothels, but I will never tolerate them again."

Huo Qing remained noncommittal.

He said, "That young man is named Chen Yiyao. When I saw him organizing the strike, I thought he had done a good thing. I never expected him to do so many things later."

While what he did was understandable, his methods were a bit too harsh. However, he is still young and his temperament is not yet settled; he needs further tempering.

Stability is what he likes.

Although Chen Yi is a promising young talent, his actions are too extreme and his desire to kill is too strong.

Huo Qing didn't really like it.

Especially since the other party has some martial arts talent, but doesn't focus on martial arts, instead forming gangs.

This is completely putting the cart before the horse.

If you truly want to serve the Great Xuan, then diligently practicing martial arts is the right path.

"Have the martial arts world pass a message to him: don't touch you, but you also need to remember what you said," Huo Qing said.

In fact, Chen Yi might not have known that Wang Ping had accepted the money from the opium den, and he might not have killed Wang Ping.

He sent someone to deliver a note, intending to use this incident to put pressure on the other party and temper their character.

Let him rein in his current extreme temperament.

Otherwise, even if he achieves success in martial arts in the future, he will only be another scourge.

Hearing Huo Qing's words, the heavy weight that had been weighing on Wang Ping's heart finally lifted.

No one dares to disobey the words of a grandmaster.

Once the grandmaster spoke, no one dared to touch him anymore.
