After listening to the rules, Li Qi thought: This is quite interesting.
"If Shen Jingbing wins, he will definitely ask the chief helmsman to divide the territory of the Southern Sun Branch under his North China Branch... By then, all the people in the Southern Sun Branch will also be expelled from the Heroes Association." Song Longping said bitterly. He said with a straight face.
"Are you so sure that he will win?" Li Qi said angrily, "Whose side are you on?"
Song Longping was speechless for a moment.
Chun Sanniang said: "Sanniang is naturally on the side of the helmsman."
Li Qidao: "I didn't talk about you, I talked about them."
When Song Longping and others heard this, they looked at each other for a moment. After a moment, he said: "Of course I am also on the side of Captain Li..."
"I can't see it," Li Qi said, "None of you have ever really taken me seriously, and the reason I stand up this time is, firstly, to give Sanniang face, and secondly..."
Li Qi glanced around the crowd and thought: Grandma, let me work for you for no reason. I will not do it. This time, I will make you shed some blood no matter what you do.
"What's second?" Song Longping asked.
Li Qidao: "Let me tell you this, it will be easy for me to win this business fight, but what good will it do to me if I win?"
Seeing Li Qi's intriguing look, Song Longping and others couldn't figure out what he wanted to do.
"What benefits does the helmsman want?" Song Longping asked.
"Since you asked me, I'll tell you the truth." Li Qi pursed his lips and gestured with three fingers, "If I win this business fight, first, from now on, Sunan will be the helmsman of all I must account for the majority of the business..."
As soon as these words came out, everyone was stunned. The second-in-command who had been silent couldn't help but said: "Master Li, you are too loud, aren't you? We, the Sunan branch, have always been in charge of our own business. , you suddenly..."
"What? You don't want to? Well, just pretend I didn't say anything about it. There will be a business fight or something, and I will just admit defeat. Anyway, the dissolution of the Sunan Branch will not do any harm to me, and I will avoid being People remember grudges.”
With that, Li Qi stood up and was about to leave. Song Longping quickly grabbed him and glared at Lao Er: "Lao Er, can you shut up?"
Even if the second child was scolded, he would have a look of displeasure on his face and would not dare to say anything.
"Master, we promise you this," Song Longping said.
"If you say it naturally, it doesn't count. I'll write it down clearly in black and white in a moment," Li Qi said.
"Okay." Song Longping gritted his teeth and said, "Master, please tell me the other two conditions..."
Li Qi sat down and said, "Secondly, if I win the business battle, Chun Sanniang will become the elder of the Sunan Branch. When I am away, I have to listen to her on everything."
Chun Sanniang was a little surprised, and everyone gave her a complicated look.
"As for the third one, it's very simple. After the business fight, shouldn't you express your gratitude? Let's pool some money together and give me a big red envelope or something?" Li Qi rubbed his hands.
Everyone didn't expect Li Qi to be so direct and not blushing at all.
"Okay! It all depends on the helmsman!" Huang Longping said.
"Okay, leave the rest to me, everyone can do whatever they want," Li Qi said.
Every year, the Heroes Conference will be held for more than half a month according to the procedure. If there are some special events, it will be held for one or two months.
After all, bringing everyone together not only allows everyone to report their performance, but also divides some work.
Shi Lezhan would talk to people in major branches and explain some things.
This year is no exception. Branch helmsmen from all over the country are staying in major inns in Yuncheng, waiting for Shi Lezhan to call him over for a chat at any time.
But this year, in addition to these basic matters in the past, the business fight between Li Qi and Shen Jingbing has also become a hot topic.
Almost the entire group of heroes is discussing this matter. If you enter any restaurant in Yuncheng, you will find people from the group of heroes discussing this matter.
"The last business fight was several years ago, right?"
"No, it was all six years ago."
"I remember that it was a contest between the South China Branch and the Southwest Branch?"
"Yes, the Southwest Branch won brilliantly that time, and the South China Branch was almost disbanded. If the chief helmsman hadn't come forward, I'm afraid there wouldn't be any South China Branch today."
"So according to you, who has a better chance of winning this year's business fight?"
"Of course it's the North China branch."
"Oh? Are you so dismissive of the Sunan branch?"
"What's there to be optimistic about? Although Li Qi has a sharp tongue, I heard that he hasn't been in the club for a long time, and the people below him don't obey him. He doesn't have much ability..."
At this moment, a man suddenly came over and said, "What's the use of discussing here? You might as well go and place a bet."
Everyone looked at him in confusion and asked: "Place a bet?"
"Yes, the odds for this business fight have been announced, and the North China helm will pay you three for one."
"Where's the Sunan branch?"
"The Sunan sub-rudder pays thirty for each one."
"The gap is so big? Where is the handicap? Take us there quickly."
…
Li Qi glanced at a group of people hurriedly leaving not far away, and thought to himself: Grandma, I'll pay thirty for each one?
Am I so miserable?
"Xiaotian." Li Qi called to Tian Hangnan who was standing beside him, took out a silver note worth one thousand taels and handed it over: "If you know how to do it, go and bet a thousand taels for me. If you buy, I will win."
Tian Hangnan took the banknote and said, "Okay, Mr. Li."
Sanniang couldn't help but ask: "Master, why did you only bet a thousand taels?"
"One thousand taels is already a lot. If I win, it will be 30,000 taels. Besides, if I bet too much, the odds will naturally change."
After saying that, Li Qi stood up and said, "Let's go, let's take a look around."
"yes."
…
Yuncheng, Shifu.
"Sir, everyone who should be seen has been seen in the past few days. Shouldn't it be reported that the people from the Sunan sub-rudder are here?" A steward bowed and said to Shi Lezhan.
Shi Lezhan put down his tea bowl and said, "No hurry. How are things arranged at Shang Dou?"
"It has been arranged. The location of this business fight is in Shuicheng, a hundred miles away. The personnel have also been arranged, and the master can leave at any time."
Shi Lezhan smiled and said: "It's been a long time since I've seen such a good show... Just inform me and we'll leave for Shuicheng tomorrow."
"Yes, sir."
As soon as the housekeeper left, the corner of Shi Lezhan's mouth raised slightly: "Li Qi? Mr. Li? I didn't expect that you are still a member of my group of heroes. I want to see what you are capable of becoming a popular person around the prince..."
After the people from the Heroes Club received the notice, many people started to leave for Shuicheng. After all, everyone wanted to watch this good show.
That night, many people had already gone to Shuicheng to book inns in advance. The next morning, many members of the Heroes Association disguised as caravans rushed to Shuicheng.
