The Heavens Start to Reverse Fate from Martial Arts

Chapter 63: Guest, Backlash
Wang Yi raised his eyebrows, glanced at the silent Zhang Shan, picked up the teacup and played with it with a faint smile.

Only a fool would believe these words.

The world, what a huge piece of cake!
Unless all the members of the Hongmen are saints who have no desires or ambitions, when the selected potential dragon has the hope of ascending to the throne, some ambitious people will jump out and try to reap the fruits of victory.

The so-called hidden dragon is nothing more than a chess piece carefully selected by the Hongmen, a chess piece that consumes the luck of the Qing court.

As long as they can achieve the goal of depleting the Qing court's luck, the Hongmen will not care about the life or death of the pawns.

If Qianlong could really overthrow the Qing court, it would not be difficult for him to turn the tables. After all, by that time, who could tell how many of Qianlong's subordinates were members of the Hongmen?

Throwing a brick to attract jade, killing someone with a borrowed knife, sneaking through Chencang, watching the fire from the other side of the river, laying eggs with borrowed chickens, turning the tables... this series of strategies are really eye-catching.

Seeing that Wang Yi did not respond, Kong Da frowned slightly and said seriously: "If you have any doubts, just speak up. This is a mutually beneficial matter. Both parties get what they need and there is no priority."

At this point, he paused, organized his words in his mind, and continued, "The Hongmen influence is spread all over the world, with a hundred thousand disciples, most of whom are in the lower nine classes, and there are also core members in the upper nine classes. Its tentacles are spread all over the Qing court and overseas, and it is a huge network. If this can be accomplished, it will be a great help to the development of Limin Commercial Bank and what you are doing in secret."

After saying that, he raised his glass and took a sip, staring at Wang Yi without blinking, not missing any change in the other's expression.

Wang Yi put down the teacup in his hand and said meaningfully: "Compared with the Hongmen, the difference between Limin Commercial Bank and Hongmen is like the difference between a firefly and the bright moon. With such a gap, no matter how pure the purpose is at the beginning, as the situation develops, it will eventually collide violently like water and fire colliding."

Kong Da slowly waved his folding fan and smiled, "Limin Commercial Bank is not just a firefly. The power behind you is more than just the commercial bank itself. It also has wisdom and courage, potential and ambition, skill and strength, as well as the martial arts talent that attracts attention, and the Guoshu Weekly that can change the world with a single word. The cooperation between the two sides is a matter of mutual benefit and mutual benefit, and there is no question of water and fire."

Wang Yi's eyes flashed with surprise. He was indeed a lobbyist sent by the Hongmen. His eloquence had some of the meaning of a strategist. He concealed the expression in his eyes and smiled faintly, "The current Limin Commercial Bank is not much stronger than Yinghuo. We will discuss this matter later."

Upon hearing this, Kong Da smiled immediately. As long as the other party did not refuse outright, it would be fine. This matter could not be rushed. The Qianlong Plan was not something that could be accomplished overnight. Many things did require long-term consideration.

He straightened his clothes, clasped his hands and said solemnly: "I came here this time, in addition to the Qianlong plan, there is another matter to discuss with you."

Wang Yi raised his eyebrows slightly and motioned Kong Da to continue.

"Old Wu Longtou sincerely invites Master Wang to serve as a guest of our Hongmen."

This boy is too talented, especially after the publication of the Ming Jin and An Jin chapters of Chinese martial arts, his status in the martial arts circle is even catching up with Guo Yunshen, the great master of Hua Jin.

The owner of Limin Commercial Bank, the founder of Guoshu Weekly, the number one person under Huajin, the youngest master of Anjin throughout history, the person who has the greatest hope of discovering the secrets of Danjin...

For a Renjie like this, even if the Qianlong plan fails, he must be made a member of the Hongmen. This is the consensus of all the top leaders of the headquarters.

"Guest official..." Wang Yi was really surprised this time. Did he realize that he was not very willing to join the Hongmen and deliberately used a more subtle way to invite him in?
"Yes, it is a guest official. The status of a guest official is equal to that of a sitting official, second only to the chief and deputy leaders. When you travel around the world, you can use this status to dispatch the forces of the Hongmen branches along the way."

"really?"

"Seriously!" Kongda looked extremely serious.

Wang Yi crossed his fingers and said calmly: "I've taken a fancy to the water transport hub in the North China Plain..." Seeing Kong Da's sudden change in expression, a faint smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.

Not to mention Kong Da's expression changed color, even Zhang Shan, who was standing next to him, had a look of shock on his face.

This statement was intended to start a war between the Hongmen and the Qingbang.

Kongda's face changed again and again, and he opened and closed his mouth again and again, but he could not give a clear answer for a long time. Tap tap tap...

The three looked in the direction of the voice and saw Li Hu leading the dusty Li Yuan towards them.

Zhang Shan immediately stood up and greeted him: "Master..."

Li Yuan raised his hand to signal, glanced at Kong Da in the pavilion, frowned and whispered: "What's going on?"

"The lobbyist sent by Old Sect Master Wu came with a great cause, so I can't just reject him."

"Are you so impatient..." Li Yuan frowned, walked into the pavilion and sat down next to Kong Da, tilting his head and glancing at him with a gloomy expression.

Kong Da looked normal, showing a familiar smile, and bowed, saying: "Deputy Captain Li, how are you? It's been a long time since we last met. Your old body is still as strong as ever..."

Li Yuan snorted and interrupted without any courtesy: "What does the headquarters mean? I am not dead yet."

He really didn't expect that the guys at the headquarters would bypass him and contact Wang Yi, which showed that they didn't take him seriously at all.

Kong Da's smile froze slightly. He knew that Li Yuan was making trouble for him. Fortunately, he had been mentally prepared before coming and had already thought of an excuse to shirk responsibility.

With a wry smile on his face, he stood up, picked up the teapot, poured a cup for him personally, and explained, "Deputy Captain Li, you are too polite. I have always respected you. But Elder Wu personally said so, and with the pressure from the chief and deputy chiefs and the various sitting halls... I had no choice but to go through this."

Li Yuan's face darkened, and he said coldly, "Very good, the headquarters really doesn't consider the feelings of us old guys at all. I have devoted most of my life to the Hongmen, but in the end I have ended up like this. I wonder if other old guys like me will be disappointed when they know about this?"

Kong Da sighed in his heart. This poisonous monkey Li Yuan was really difficult to deal with. He smiled and said, "Deputy Captain Li, please calm down. This is related to the Qianlong Project..."

Li Yuan stared at Kong Da with a sharp gaze, and said, "Do you think I am old and confused?" He smiled coldly, ignored Kong Da, turned to look at Wang Yi, and said in a deep voice, "My friend, what do you think?"

Wang Yi smiled and said leisurely: "I have my eyes on this water transport hub in the North China Plain..."

"Hmm?" Li Yuan was slightly stunned and turned his head to look at Kong Da. Looking at his hesitant expression, he immediately understood the deep meaning of Wang Yi's words, and his mood inexplicably improved.

Kong Da took a deep breath and said in a serious tone, "This is a matter of great importance. I need to report this to Elder Wu and discuss it with the headquarters before I can give you a reply."

If he really took over the water transport hub of the North China Plain, it would undoubtedly be a declaration of war on the entire Green Gang. As the leader of a branch, he did not have the right to make such a major decision.

Wang Yi showed disdain on his face and sneered, "The Hidden Dragon Project, what a bold idea! How can you retreat when facing a gang of Jianghu forces? What great things can you accomplish if you are hesitant and cautious?"

After saying that, he waved to Li Hu outside the pavilion.

Li Hu understood, walked slowly to Kong Da's side, and gestured with his hand: "Master Kong, please come in!"

Kong Da looked unhappy. He took a deep breath and said, "This is not a decision that I can make. I will report the news to the headquarters as soon as possible. Prince Wang, please stay in Guangping for a few more days. After the headquarters has made a decision, I will come and give you a reply as soon as possible. Goodbye."

After saying that, he turned around and left without wasting any more words.

Li Hu followed Kong Da silently and sent him out of the courtyard.
