Chapter 2056: Sad reminder of the foursome
Qiqi's starting point is higher than that of everyone in the world. Since she was a child, she has been a little princess who has been loved by thousands of people. Anyone around her is a person who can walk around the ancient martial arts world. Of course, she cannot understand the bitter history of the small people at the bottom of the ancient martial arts world today.
In fact, these foursomes are also very lucky.
They are all casual cultivators. They occasionally have adventures, so they have been living in seclusion in the deep mountains and forests to prepare for the purpose of participating in the Qianlong Festival and becoming famous overnight.
For this goal, the Tianba foursome have been practicing and waiting.
Until this year, the age of the four of them happened to be stuck at the maximum age limit of the Qianlong Festival. At the age of 35, they lost the qualification to participate in the Qianlong Festival in another year. At this age, participating in the Qianlong Festival is the most advantageous, because they have practiced for more than ten years compared to those young people in their twenties.
So, the Tianba foursome came out ambitiously.
Originally, the plan of the Tianba foursome was very simple. You only need to get a good ranking at the Qianlong Festival, and you can easily find a financial backer in the secular world who is not short of money, and you will be rich and prosperous for the rest of your life.
As a result... It happened that the year they came out, the spiritual energy of the earth recovered and entered the era of national cultivation at a sprint of 100 meters. The number of ancient warriors showed a surge in popularity, which caused the employment pressure of ancient warriors to instantly increase by hundreds of times or even more.
This is like a college graduate.
College graduates in the 1990s were very popular and they didn’t lack jobs at all, but what is the situation now?
Throw a brick upstairs and hit at least seven or eight out of ten people with university diplomas.
In this case, your competitiveness will naturally become weaker.
The Tianba foursomes are facing such a dilemma.
The eldest among them - the one who holds the sword - has a very beautiful and refined thought. He saw the employment pressure brought by the endless emergence of ancient martial artists, and also saw the urgent need for the cultivation of ancient martial arts in today's society, so he came up with the idea of opening a martial arts school.
In fact, the boss’s idea cannot be wrong, because in the past six months, many martial arts schools, academic institutions, etc. have gradually emerged around the world, specifically targeting ordinary people in the secular world who want to practice martial arts and teach them to practice. The market is pretty good, and many people have made a lot of money because of the first wave of dividends.
From this we can see that opening a martial arts school is quite prosperous.
But they started a little slower.
The Tianba foursome did not realize that they were late to enter the industry, but were quite ambitious.
The four hit it off and each divided the work. The boss was responsible for the overall operation of the martial arts hall, which was equivalent to the CEO. The two strange-shaped ones in front were the third and fourth, who belonged to the executive level and would be the main instructor in the future. Tianba was the second, who could fight and kill, so he was the representative to participate in the Qianlong event, rushing to the national finals, and then gaining the reputation of the Tianba Martial Arts Hall.
For this reason, the shoulder pole fell down and was not sure it was a four-person group with the word "one". They gave the second son a domineering "stage name", which is Tianba. At the same time, they also named their martial arts hall "Tianba Martial Arts Hall" to achieve the brand effect.
The real name of these four groups reflects minimalism to the extreme, and is called Zhou Da, Wang Er, Zhang San, and Li Si according to the rankings.
It would be a embarrassing them to be able to give a name like "Tianba".
As a result, Qiqi punched her and cut off all the fantasies of the Tianba foursome.
There are so many martial arts schools now. Those martial arts schools either have long been famous masters, or have a dedicated team behind them to operate, or have strong capital to overwhelm advertising. In contrast, Tianba Martial Arts Hall has nothing to do except four young men. They can only place their hopes at the Qianlong Festival, but the result is shattered.
In today's society, the control of ancient warriors is very strict. The "true Qi detector" is everywhere, just like the "Sky Eye System" back then, which greatly limits the behavior of ancient warriors. Anyone who violates the ban by martial arts will not have a good ending.
So the Tianba four-person group could not be handled by the martial arts center, and the risk of going out to steal was too high, so it was really embarrassing.
.........
"Half a year ago, the martial arts hall opened well, and my brothers and I were ambitious. The Buddha blessed me, and people in the industry said that it is a dead end to run a martial arts hall now, but I don't accept my fate. I think it's up to you to make a decision on the poor or the rich. We will choose the way we go..."
Zhou Da sat on the ground, looked up at the sky, and sighed.
A teardrop slowly slid down from the corners of his eyes on both sides.
It’s not that I’m too sad, but... I’m beaten to cry.
That's right, Zhou Da was beaten to tears.
Among the four-person Tianba, the strongest Tianba is only in the middle stage of foundation building. The other three are in the early stage of foundation building. The four of them are shoulder to shoulder and are no match for Qiqi at all.
So, they were all knocked down.
It's really "down".
All four of them were lying on the ground, their mouths chewed to the soil, and their faces were covered with blood marks drawn from whips.
Don't dare to move or not.
I could only honestly tell them all the bitter experiences.
Qiqi sat on a raised stone next to her and listened, and anyone who moved would whip the Jiulong Whip on someone's body.
This thing hurts when you twitch it on your body.
Qiqi held her chin with her little hand, looked at the four-person group in front of her, and asked, "So, did you borrow money to raise all the money to open a martial arts school?"
"Yes, we have a total of 1,000 w loans, and we will need to pay 1,500 w loans in half a year." Zhou Da said bitterly, "But until now that the martial arts school has been losing money, and I haven't made a penny. The loan cannot be paid at all. It will be the next repayment day soon. We...ah!"
"Borrow ten million, pay 15 million in half a year? This is even worse than usury." Qiqi opened her mouth and sighed, "Didn't you think about stolen the debt?"
"It's not that I didn't think about it, but... I dare not." Zhou Da shook his head, "It is said that behind that lending company, there is a big family in the ancient martial arts world, that we can afford to mess with."
Speaking of this, the expressions of the four-person Tianba team became even more miserable.
I just feel that my future life is dark.
Seeing them like this, Qiqi couldn't bear it anymore.
In fact, these four teams are not too bad. At least, they did not rely on their own cultivation to commit crimes. Of course, this is also because of the popularization of true qi detectors and the enforcement of the dragon team that ancient warriors cannot do things unscrupulously.
And now when they come to Qiqi for revenge, they are completely forced to go to the fore. As the saying goes, cutting off people's wealth is equivalent to killing their parents, and they are indeed full of anger.
Qiqi pursed her lips and thought for a while, her eyes suddenly lit up and she asked, "Hey, where is your martial arts hall open?"
Zhou Da said: "Suzhou."
"Suzhou, it's very close to Longcheng..." Qiqi murmured, thinking about it in her heart, looking at the four of them and asked, "How about you four, how about working for me?"
"ah???"
The four-member Tianba blinked their ignorant eyes and looked up at Qiqi hard, not understanding.
Qiqi said, "Your martial arts school is likely to be unable to handle it anymore, but you have prepared the venue and infrastructure of the martial arts school, so you can't waste it. So, you transfer the martial arts school to me, and I will give you 20 million. In addition, you four are all staying in the martial arts school as teachers, I will pay you a salary, and you can also give you some equity dividends. It's better than working hard on your own, right?"
I have to say that the Tianba foursomes were a little moved.
