Chapter 1991: A Shabby Master

The seven of them looked at me and I looked at you, all of them were undecided. As Lin Feng expected, since they agreed to come with Lin Chiling and the others, it showed that they were not so stubborn. Of course, they don't have the qualifications to be stubborn. They are an independent sect, not those with family backgrounds. Those sects with rich families can live on rent and the like, but independent sects like them do not have this kind of income.

Basically, most people like them who have been practicing martial arts since childhood have no skills. Decent people are not willing to engage in such deeds as robbing families and homes. You can imagine the embarrassment of life. This time I came here just to rely on Lin Feng to improve my life. Not to mention for your own sake, at least you can't say that a big man has a bad conscience if he allows his family to suffer for all his hard work.

Therefore, these seven masters instinctively lacked confidence when facing Lin Feng. Regarding Lin Feng's proposal, or even a request, their warrior tradition wanted them to refuse, but the pressure of life and the hope of passing on what they had learned made them unable to refuse.

"Mr. Lin, we are willing to participate in this 'World's Best Martial Arts Tournament', but we have a request!" Mr. Xie made a request after talking quietly with everyone.

“Mr. It is a good thing to have requirements, but I am afraid that there are no requirements.

"Mr. Lin, once we participate in this martial arts competition, I am afraid that we will become the public enemy of the domestic martial arts and cause big trouble. Therefore, out of the responsibilities that a man, a husband, and a father should have, I I hope...I...I didn't want to say these words, but I have to say it. I hope you can give us a settlement allowance." Mr. Xie hesitated for a long time and finally said it. But as soon as he finished speaking, his whole face turned red.

Ashamed! Being lonely and arrogant, I finally faced the reality and had to lower my once extremely proud head. As Mr. Xie lowered his head, there were six other people. The seven martial arts masters were so ashamed at this moment. All this knowledge and decades of hard work have not given them anything that allows them to hold their heads high and be human beings. The wife works hard to run the house, and the children live frugally, all because they learn martial arts.

"Boss!" Wang Longhai handed Lin Feng a piece of information.

Lin Feng opened it and saw that there were information on these seven people inside.

Xie Xiaodong, male, 53 years old, learned the Northern Mantis Boxing from the Jiang Hualong lineage. He has a family and one son. My wife suffers from congenital heart disease and is resting at home. My son is studying in college. The whole family relies on Xie Xiaodong's daily odd jobs for a living. It’s okay not to mention how difficult life is.

Li Wu is the young man, 36 years old. He learned Xingyiquan from the lineage of Cao Jiwu. He has no family, but because of his upright character, he has offended many people. And once in Henan, he saw an injustice on the road and injured a bad boy, and he was wanted. Since his escape, his life has been difficult.

Even more so than Xie Xiaodong.

...

After Lin Feng read the information about the seven people, he let out a long sigh. These seven people, who can be favored by Wang Hailong, are obviously real masters. But the embarrassment of life is not as good as those who have only learned a little bit. It can be seen how harmful the traditional ideas in the Chinese martial arts world are. Of course, this traditional thinking has disadvantages as well as advantages. At least it is rare to hear of any martial arts master injuring civilians. I only heard that those urban management officers, bad guys, and the like beat and injured people.

"How much settling-in allowance you want, just ask." Lin Feng said.

These people are hardworking people and have learned extraordinary things. Unfortunately, in modern society, what they have learned is destined to be useless. Of course, if they were willing to be bodyguards or thugs, they would definitely earn a lot of money, but they don't want to do this. Now that they have spoken, as long as they don't go too far, Lin Feng will definitely be satisfied.

Xie Xiaodong lowered his head and thought for a moment, exchanging glances with everyone.

"Mr. Lin, we want 100,000 yuan! One hundred thousand yuan per capita." Xie Xiaodong's voice trembled slightly. When he mentioned 100,000 yuan, he didn't even dare to look at Lin Feng.

Not because of anything else, just because of shame. It is so shameful for people who practice martial arts to put money where their mouth is and even ask for it.

One hundred thousand? Lin Feng was stunned. This...this...is too little! According to what Xie Xiaodong and others said just now, this settlement fee is almost equivalent to the fee for selling one's body. They may have been thinking of being beaten to death in the ring. From Lin Feng's point of view, they still need millions of RMB to be able to afford what they have learned. As a result, they asked for 100,000, just 100,000. This was too cheap! When did martial arts masters become so cheap! If it was so cheap, wouldn't those bad guys be surrounded by martial arts masters?

"Mr. Lin, if it's more than 100,000, 80,000 is fine. The minimum cannot be less than 60,000." Seeing Lin Feng's shock, Xie Xiaodong thought that Lin Feng thought it was too much, so he kept cutting prices, and in the end he even gave away the bottom line of himself and others. Only said it. This once again proves that these people are very skilled, but their eloquence is really poor.

Lin Feng shook his head helplessly. In this 21st century, what have these Chinese martial arts masters been forced to do?

"No, no, Mr. Xie, I didn't say this much. One hundred thousand is one hundred thousand. It's whatever you say. But this is not settlement allowance. It is considered as an advance payment of one year's salary for you! If you are injured during the competition, All the medical expenses and nutritional expenses are mine," Lin Feng said quickly.

These martial arts masters had already cheated on themselves at such low prices, and Lin Feng was unwilling to cheat on them again. The impoverished martial arts master can't afford to be hurt!

"Ah, Mr. Lin, what did you say? This is a year's salary. How can this be done?" Xie Xiaodong and others were shocked.

"Mr. Lin, although we followed Brother Wang because we believed in him and we also wanted to sell our art to the Emperor's family, we will never do evil or help the evil. Don't expect us to do bad things for you." Li Wu said in a rough voice.

The other martial arts masters also expressed their opinions and would never help the evil.

"Haha, look at what you said. I don't need you to do anything. After receiving this money, you only need to participate in this "No. 1 Martial Arts Competition in the World" and win glory for Chinese martial arts. Then you stay in the Martial Arts Alliance every year, teach martial arts, and teach everything you have learned." Lin Feng laughed.

The seven people looked at each other.

"That's it? It's that simple?"

"Yes, it's that simple!"

"Okay, I'll do it!" Li Wu was the first to agree.

"I'll do it too."

......

The seven martial arts masters agreed one after another. Just by fighting and then teaching martial arts, they can get a salary of 100,000 yuan a year. For them, there is nothing better in the world. At this moment, Lin Feng is the cutest person in their hearts.

"Okay, now that everyone has reached a consensus, let's toast to the first batch of masters invited to our martial arts alliance!" Lin Feng raised his glass.

"Haha, it's great. Today is probably the most comfortable day in my life. Everything is solved. Damn it, I don't have to worry about eating a few steamed buns anymore." Li Wu laughed.

"By the way, Li Wu, I will also help you solve the dispute between you and that evil young man." Lin Feng said with a smile.

"Haha, right, from now on, as long as it's not murder, arson, or anything wrong, you talk, I do it!" Li Wu laughed.

Everyone raised their glasses and ate and drank happily.

After eating and sending the seven masters back to the hotel, Lin Feng and Wang Hailong came to the tea restaurant next to them.

"Wang Hailong, are there only these seven masters? You should know that I plan to build 21 inns at one time, which means 21 martial arts halls. Even if each martial arts hall only sends one master to take charge, it will still require 21 masters, and there are only 7, which is not enough!" Lin Feng said, "By the way, are there any masters in this field among the retired Langya?"

"Boss, there is no way. There are only so many single masters at present. Some others are either missing or unwilling to come out. As for the "Langya", there are masters, but what they have learned are the killing boxing in the army, which is not suitable for teaching to ordinary students. What's more, most of them are disabled. They can serve as coaches in the martial arts hall, but they are probably not qualified to be the master in charge. Boss, you should know that although the Chinese martial arts world is now in decline, the prejudice of sects is still quite serious. And the phenomenon of kicking the hall is not absent. If the "Langya" people are not injured, they can still compete with these real martial arts masters. If they are injured, there is nothing they can do." Wang Hailong said helplessly.

The masters in the army are weaker than these traditional martial artists in terms of fighting. Add to that the disability, and it's even more impossible to compete. It's obviously unrealistic to let the "Wolf Fang" people sit in the martial arts hall. They are beyond their ability. Of course, if the overall strength is compared, the Wolf Fang people will definitely have the upper hand. After all, the competition is fair and square, and if the rules can be ignored, then these martial arts masters are not as good as the masters in the army.

Lin Feng pursed his lips. There are only 7 people, isn't that too miserable? There are still 14 people missing, where can I find them?

Fortunately, the "Wulin Inn" is still under construction, and it will take at least half a year to complete it. There is still half a year to find masters. And Lin Feng believes that after the "World's No. 1 Martial Arts Competition" is over, there should be more martial arts masters. Lin Feng doesn't believe that there are only seven lonely martial arts masters in the whole of China.

After discussing with Wang Hailong again, the two said goodbye and left.

But when Lin Feng just got home, he saw several girls sitting in the living room, not talking, and the atmosphere was so solemn, not to mention it.

"What's going on? What's going on?" Lin Feng asked in surprise as he entered the room. As soon as he finished speaking, he saw Ivanka turning around. She's here!

Why is Ivanka here at this late hour? What is she doing here? No wonder the girls are sitting in the living room, not talking, the atmosphere is so solemn!

(Tonight is a total lunar eclipse, don't forget it! There is another update, which will be updated later!)
