Chapter 377 The Mysterious White-Clothed Scholar
When Ouyang Shuo offered a condition, Ji Yinghu instinctively wanted to bargain.
"Dealing with the [Star Alliance] is not an easy task."
Hearing this, Ouyang Shuo smiled dumbly. Jiyinghu looks cool, but he likes to beat around the bush when he speaks.
"You are wrong. To me, dealing with the [Star Alliance] is nothing more than a breath of anger and has no real benefit. But to the two of you, it is a great opportunity. The sacrifice and the reward are always in direct proportion, Isn't it?"
Ji Yinghu hesitated when he heard the words, he didn't expect that Ouyang Shuo was so confident.
Of course Ouyang Shuo is confident, if [Shadow League] doesn't cooperate, he can switch to another one. Until then, it was the two in front of me who felt uncomfortable.
He believes that Jiyinghu will never give up this cooperation.
Negotiation, as long as the bottom line of the other party is grasped, everything is easy to negotiate.
Seeing Ouyang Shuo sitting firmly on the Diaoyutai, Jiyinghu could only smile wryly, the feeling of being grabbed three inches is not good. He is also a decisive person. Seeing that things cannot be done, he immediately gives up, and when enough is enough, he nods in agreement.
So far, the cooperation between the three parties has been reached.
Ouyang Shuo has no intention of introducing [Shadow League] and [Yimenglou] to Guild Alliance. Even if he wants to introduce them, he will have to wait until they kill [Jian Qi] and [Star Alliance] in the capital.
On the other hand, [One Thread], under the recommendation of Ouyang Shuo, has successfully joined the Shanhaimeng Guild Alliance.
In fact, Ouyang Shuo didn't expect that [Shadow Alliance] and [Yimenglou] could really kill [Sword Qi], even if they could kill [Star Alliance].
[Sword Qi] How easy is it to rule the roost in Kyoto? The hidden family behind [Star Alliance], since they decided to be born, they will definitely go all out.
Ouyang Shuo's purpose was to let the guilds in the capital check and balance each other, dragging the energies of [Star Alliance] and [Sword Qi] and making them tired of coping with the civil war.
In this way, Ouyang Shuo is satisfied.
If you really want to clean up these two guilds, the Shanhai League will have to do it yourself.
After sending Ji Yinghu and Meng Yuntunding away, Ouyang Shuo just nestled in the courtyard and didn't go anywhere. He can sit on the mountain and watch the big drama that will be staged in Kyoto next.
That afternoon, a batch of elite equipment promised by Shanhai City, including 1,000 strong bows, 1,000 crossbows, 500 heavy swords, and 2,000 shields, all arrived in Kyoto.
Ouyang Shuo paid 44,000 gold coins and sold it to [Shadow League] and [Yimenglou].
For the price of the equipment, Ouyang Shuo added ten points to the internal price of the alliance. Even so, Ji Yinghu and Meng Yuntunding were extremely happy.
Such elite equipment, if sold on the market, would be at least five to ten points more expensive.
Ouyang Shuo withheld 20,000 gold coins from the equipment sales to make up for the investment in the addition of the Black Snake Guard last time, and kept the funds in his hands at 50,000 gold coins.
The remaining 24,000 gold coins will be assigned to the Finance Department.
This fund will be used as a special fund to expand the workshop of the Four Armies.
According to Shanhai City's plan, the military workshop area in the eastern district will be fully expanded eastward, extending to the canyon and river. Even the wharf located in the river course is included as part of the military wharf.
After the expansion, the area of the military workshop area is more than five times that of the previous one. After a year of cultivation, thousands of intermediate craftsmen have been born, and they will support the rapid development of the military industry in the territory.
With the support of Shanhaicheng equipment, [Shadow Alliance] and [Yimenglou] are full of confidence.
On April 4th, [Yimenglou] suddenly attacked the leveling team of [Star Alliance] on the third lap, [Star Alliance] was caught off guard and suffered heavy losses.
The main members of [Star Alliance] are still squatting in the prison at the moment, facing the pressing force of [Yimenglou], they are retreating steadily, and are forced to give up a large number of leveling points and resource collection points.
Seeing this, [Sword Qi Aspect] wanted to send reinforcements, but was intercepted by [Shadow Alliance].
Suddenly, the atmosphere in Kyoto became extremely tense.
On April 5th, the main force of [Star Alliance] was released. As soon as they came out, under the leadership of the hall masters, they launched a strong counterattack and fought with [Yimenglou].
[Yimenglou] Taking advantage of the opportunity, naturally not afraid, and brazenly facing the battle.
The flames of war in Kyoto have intensified, officially kicking off the prelude to the guild melee. The major guilds in China, like the previous territories, are ushering in a round of survival of the fittest.
The strong survive, the weak perish.
Affected by the war in Kyoto, challengers jumped out of the Nine Kingdoms one after another, trying to challenge the top ten guilds, no, it should be said that it is the status of the Nine Great Guilds.
With the withdrawal of [One Thread], one of the top ten guilds just happened to be stationed in every royal city. Players will wait and see who will fill the vacancy left by [One Wisp].
Taking this opportunity, the Shanhaimeng Guild Alliance officially surfaced.
Three top ten and one former top ten teamed up to bring the flames of war that had just ignited to a standstill for a moment.
The guilds in Jianye, Luoyang and Dali have all died down.
The withdrawal of the three cities only made the flames of war in other royal cities more intense.
Except for Kyoto, which has been beaten to death, Xianyang has [Blood Romance] stationed there, and no one dares to attack it. Xiangyang's [Yanyun Eighteen Riders] has Chunshenjun's support, and it can be regarded as a firm foothold.
The [Jinyiwei] in Chang'an, the [Liuguang Pavilion] in Quanzhou, and the [Laojunguan] in Chengdu, these three top ten guilds that have not yet cooperated with the territory, have become the key targets of all careerists.
Especially [Laojunguan], which is ranked last, is also under the greatest pressure.
There was a little-known guild in Chengdu called [Huo Hua Society]. Its president Ming Ye, like Xingzhe Zhichen, was also a descendant of a hidden family. It is said that his ancestors were once members of the imperial family.
With the emergence of [Huohua Society], [Laojunguan]’s dominance in Chengdu has gradually evolved into a “two-hero club”. Rumor has it that [Huohua News Agency] has joined forces with Jianxia County in Chengdu.
As a result, [Laojunguan] will face even greater pressure.
The strong rise of [Huohua Society] has become the best portrayal of this round of guild melee.
Taking this opportunity, the Black Snake Guard also showed its talents, fished in troubled waters, and placed spies in the major guilds. Ouyang Shuo was sitting firmly on the Diaoyutai, who knew that he was the fuse that triggered this round of guild melee.
***********
April 6th.
Ouyang Shuo brought the white snake to the tea house again.
The waiter in the shop recognized Ouyang Shuo, and enthusiastically led him to the reserved seat.
"The young man in white hasn't arrived yet?"
"not yet."
Ouyang Shuo nodded and waited in peace.
About half an hour later, the scribe in white appeared at the door of the teahouse.
The shop waiter has been guarding the door, and when he sees the young man in white, he immediately greets him.
"Please come inside, young master!" After saying that, he led to the private seat.
The young man in white followed behind. Seeing that the destination was the private seat, he asked puzzledly: "Man, I just need to find a seat in the lobby, and I don't need to go to the private seat."
The shop waiter smiled and said, "To tell you the truth, my lord, there is a noble person waiting for you in the private seat."
"My lord? In Kyoto, I don't know anyone?"
"Young master, you will know when you enter!"
The young man in white was straightforward, "Okay, then I'll see you!"
Pushing open the screen of the private seat, I saw a young man making tea with a concentrated expression.
The young man heard the voice and looked up, it was Ouyang Shuo.
Ouyang Shuo put down the tea set, got up, straightened his clothes, and according to the ancient etiquette, crossed his hands with the backs of his hands facing outwards, pushed them forward and then retracted them to his chest, "I don't mean to say that I have no clothes, I take the liberty to invite you, my lord, don't blame me!"
The young man in white's eyes focused, obviously he knew Ouyang Shuo.
Among the historical figures, there are very few people who don't know about Ouyang Shuo's existence.
The young man in white was also frank, and returned a salute, saying: "Cao Min Wei Yang, pay homage to Marquis of Lianzhou!"
When Ouyang Shuo heard this, his heartbeat slowed down by half a beat, and he was even more surprised than Wei Yang.
Wei Yang, the famous Shang Jun in the Warring States Period, a representative of the Legalists, and the founder of Qin State's unification of the world. Any title is enough to make people awe-inspiring.
This time he "waited for the rabbit" was right.
"Please!"
White Snake stood up and sat behind Ouyang Shuo.
Wei Yang sat opposite Ouyang Shuo, his demeanor was calm. At this time, Wei Yang also recognized that the Marquis of Lianzhou in front of him was the young man he met on the stairs last time.
Come to think of it, Marquis Lianzhou made a special trip here to wait for him.
In an instant, Wei Yang had a clear idea of the cause and effect.
Both of them are smart people, and there is no need to mention a lot of things, everyone understands them. Now that the opponent's identity was confirmed, Ouyang Shuo was not in a hurry, and accompanied Wei Yang, watching the chess game downstairs with great interest.
In the lobby on the first floor, there is a huge chessboard. Every time the player makes a move, a special person will review the game, and put the corresponding special huge chess pieces on the chessboard for tea guests to watch.
Ouyang Shuo is not proficient in chess.
In his previous life, he was just an adventure player, so how could he have such leisure.
On the contrary, after Jiang Shang settled in Shanhai City, Ouyang Shuo would occasionally accompany the old man to play a few rounds of chess. Although he was killed every time, his chess skills improved rapidly.
Therefore, seeing the chess game downstairs, Ouyang Shuo could understand a thing or two. As for Wei Yang, he is a top player in the way of chess, proficient in this way.
A game of chess lasted for two hours.
The white snake sitting behind Ouyang Shuo couldn't sit still.
God is pitiful, as a mercenary, it doesn't matter if you let him go into battle to kill the enemy, or spy on him in disguise. But playing chess? God, it was torture.
Seeing the increasingly full chessboard, White Snake was no different from reading a heavenly book. He really couldn't understand, since Junhou had already recognized Wei Yang's identity, why he didn't invite him directly, instead he looked at playing chess.
Such inefficiency is not the usual style of a prince.
How did White Snake know that Wei Yang was different from the others. Such a great talent, unless he himself is willing to become an official, it is difficult to convince him.
With Wei Yang's style, he would rather linger in tea houses and restaurants than visit various places. Ouyang Shuo knew that Wei Yang might have developed the desire to go back to hermitage.
Therefore, on the surface, Ouyang Shuo seemed to be watching the game, but in fact he was always thinking, what is Wei Yang's need? How can we impress this representative of Legalism?
Difficult!
