In winter, the farmers who farmed all paid their rent, exchanged the remaining surplus for some money, and bought some rough food by the way - of course, these things are not as good as those grown by themselves, but these things can make the whole family full and not be able to survive the winter.

Of course, a small portion will be left to be eaten during the Chinese New Year. Fine grains and white flour are the best rewards they use to celebrate the past year.

This year, these farmers will have a better life, but this only refers to the tenant farmers of the Shushan School.

"President Ye is such a good person!"

These tenants would say similar things after sending people to collect rent in Shushan Sect, because Ye Wen not only made the decision to reduce the rent, but also asked his disciples to check from house to house. If the situation is not good, Shushan Sect is willing to borrow some money to help him spend the winter, but the rent that this family will pay is slightly higher next year.

But even so, the rent to be paid is a little less than in previous years. Even so, these farmers are very happy and keep praising Ye Wen as a good person.

Is Ye Wen a good person? Although he thinks he is not a bad guy with a lot of evil deeds, he seems to be a little far from a good person. When Li Sen, who was in charge of these matters, asked him why he wanted to reduce the rent of the tenant farmers, Ye Wen only said: "If you want them to work hard, there is a prerequisite for them to survive!"

The expectations for tenants in this world are not high. As long as you can have a full meal every day and then the whole family can survive.

If the exploitation is too fierce and even survival becomes a luxury, then even if you still farm for survival, your enthusiasm will inevitably be much worse - you will not be able to eat enough if you work hard or not, and it is like torture every year during the winter, so someone will have the idea that it will be almost the same to deal with it.

The last influence was the Shushan faction, who was a landlord. Therefore, Ye Wen simply treated the tenant farmers well. He even prepared a series of assistance measures - such as providing farm tools and renting them to tenant farmers and oxen at low prices, as long as these guys work hard to farm for him. The more food they grow, the better his Shushan faction can live.

"But, in this way, the income of our Shushan School will probably be greatly reduced in recent times!" Li Sen's concern is not unreasonable. Although the Shushan School now has more and more industries, the scale of the sect has gradually grown. The vegetable garden on the mountain can barely provide vegetables, eggs, and fish and meat, but fish and other things need to be purchased separately - it is not okay for those who practice martial arts to eat meat. Ye Wen stipulated that even ordinary disciples must have meat in their daily meals.

Therefore, although the income is too much, the expenses are also very high. Fortunately, Chen Yizhong's clinic has been opened. Shushan County has always had only one clinic, and there is only one doctor in it. Ordinary people are sick and they will get over it. Now Ye Wen has opened a clinic, and the business is really booming. Considering that he has gained fame, he has free free medical consultations for the first three days, but those who are sick or not come to see him, which makes Chen Yizhong very tired.

After three days, the business was no longer so hot, but those three days of hard work brought Bao Zhilin enough reputation. People in Shushan County now have any headaches and fevers to come to Chen Yizhong. In addition, Chen Yizhong has been traveling around the country for so many years, and his medical skills are indeed good. After more than half a month, the people who were diagnosed and treated by Chen Yizhong were passed down by word of mouth, and Bao Zhilin has become the largest medical clinic in Shushan County.

"It's not enough. We have to find a way to drive these two shops to Linshan County!"

Ye Wen was not satisfied because Shushan County was still too small and was not a major transportation route. Only those who went to more remote borders to find furs or delivered goods to border garrisons would pass by. In addition, Shushan County did not have any special local products, so the population flow was not large.

Linshan County is different. It is a major transportation route between the north and the south, and it also has its own unique products. There are many merchants and wealthy customers from the south. If the store can be opened there and gain a foothold, it will be considered a real money-making transaction.

"You are so busy this year, so you will have a good rest in the past few months. When the spring is coming, you will have to run back and forth again when you open a branch in Linshan County!"

Li Sen quickly bowed: "This is what the disciple should do!"

Ye Wen nodded: "Let's go back and spend more money and have a good New Year! You don't have to run around during this period. Let's go to your master to give you some advice on your skills. Whether you want to go out for a walk or have a good rest for the rest of the time, it's up to you. Just remember to come back for the New Year's dinner during the New Year!"

"yes!"

Li Sen's family had long passed away and had no relatives in Shushan County. Now Ye Wen gave him such a big fuss, and he really couldn't think of where to go for a while. However, it's always good to have free time. In addition, he has indeed lost a lot of kung fu this year. He could have tried dozens of tricks with Xu Ping, but now he can never do it again.

"Well, let's go and find the master to practice kung fu!"

Ye Wen didn't know that Li Sen was already wary of his kung fu being lost. He was still thinking that if he opened the branch to Linshan County, Li Sen would definitely be responsible for it. If the two places were running back and forth, there would be no one to manage the industry in Shushan County.

Fortunately, these industries are not far away, so nothing will happen. They just need to send someone to take charge. Ye Wen thought about it and thought about whether he should release Yue Ning for experience?

Yue Ning followed him up the mountain since he was eleven years old, and now he is 14 years old. His figure is almost adult, and his whole body is on the same path as him. After checking a few days ago, he found that the Quanzhen Heart Method had been fully trained by him. In addition, he had fought with others when the siege of Shushan and gained practical experience, so he knew how to advance and retreat.

"At worst, I can call Zhou Dingye or Xu Ping to take a look from time to time!"

After thinking about it, Ye Wen didn't tell anyone. It would be better to talk about it later. Although Yue Ning was calm by nature, he was still a half-year-old child after all, and he was at the age of being so leaping. Now he told him, he probably wouldn't have the heart to practice.

A few days later, Ye Wen called Xu Ping over again. He did not teach any sword skills himself. He just made a statement and thought of some tricks of exercising strength in recent days, which should be of some benefit to his practice of sword skills, so he called him to listen to it.

Xu Ping was worried that his martial arts would never be diligent. He heard that his master had taught him, so why didn’t he listen? After listening for a while, he felt that what Ye Wen said was indeed exquisite and profound. He barely remembered it clearly, but if he wanted to understand it, he was afraid that he would not be able to understand it all in every three or five years. He immediately gave a deep tribute to Ye Wen and went back to comprehend these exquisitenesses.

Ye Wen felt relieved when he saw Xu Ping leaving with satisfaction.

These three disciples, Yue Ning, were basically practicing according to his current route, so he probably wouldn't be able to get rid of the internal force in the future. However, he didn't have his own adventures, and he would have to rely on time to achieve success in his cultivation.

The second disciple Zhou Zhiruo also had a general teaching method. Although he has practiced the Quanzhen Heart Method, his future development direction is probably to practice the junior sister’s little Wuxianggong. There is no way, if you can practice it to a profound level and suitable for women, he will be the little Wuxianggong in his hand.

Moreover, Xiao Wuxianggong is important in skills, so he is not the kind of skill that he is head-on. As a woman, Zhou Zhiruo has to consider this level.

There is no need to think too much about the moves. At present, the snow-piercing cloud palm, Mian Palm, Destroying Sword, Jue Sword is enough to use Zhou Zhiruo. The palm swords are all available. At the same time, the Mijue Sword is extremely killing, and there are all the tricks to defeat and kill the enemy. Ye Wen can't help too much in the future.

Only this third disciple Xu Ping, who wanted to practice sword skills and achieve the best sword skills, Ye Wen had a lot of sword skills, but his sword skills were only a little bit clear. Xu Ping's own mastery of the Five Tiger Breaking Sword is not considered a subtle skill, but Ye Wen had a lot of exquisite sword skills in his hand.

This situation is like a wooden barrel, half long and half short. In the long run, the sword and sword are just a joke. He really didn't want such a result, so he always thought of some ways to teach this disciple. Not only did he hollow out his brain to think about the little narrative of the exquisite sword techniques, he also helped the disciple come up with some ideas for cultivation from time to time - such as chopping paper and chopping wood tofu.

I don’t know if it was because of his heavy heart or what, as soon as the summoning began to begin, Ye Wen actually summoned a secret book of blood swords. Although the sword technique in this book was made by the evil sect in the original work, no one could recognize it here. In addition, the sword technique itself was extremely exquisite. If it weren’t for considering that he had not mastered sword techniques, he would have even taught this set of sword techniques directly to Xu Ping.

At present, he had to take out some essences from time to time to teach Xu Ping, and even consider that these essences can be universal, so he can feel at ease to teach them.

The Blood Knife and Knife Technique is worthy of the name of exquisite sword technique. Many of the exquisite principles of Ye Wen are very beneficial to him when he sees it. Even if he doesn't use a knife, the skillful power of the Blood Knife Technique is amazing. He has learned a lot from it and has increased a lot of martial arts knowledge.

In the original work, Di Yun's fingers were half broken and his pipa bone was penetrated. Although the magic of the Divine Raid allowed him to practice internal strength to attack the enemy, he could not use weapons.

However, the sword technique of the Blood Knife Sect can be practiced without any hindrance and is still powerful. It can be seen that this skill is indeed very magical. In addition, Ye Wen only has a secret book on the Blood Knife, which contains the essence of sword technique and some key points of exercising strength, but he has not seen any internal power or higher sword technique.

"I don't know if the Blood Sea Demon Technique and Blood Demon Sword Technique in the game are summoned..."

But even so, he was already happy enough, not to mention that when winter comes, it is the birthday of his and his junior sister. At this time, he got this secret book, and I don’t know if it was the ring to give him a gift.

Thinking of this, Ye Wen kissed his ring and forgot that he had called this thing too bad a few days ago and didn't give it all.

No matter what, having solved a big problem, Ye Wen can finally calm down and arrange the sect competition. He chose to hold the sect competition when winter was about to begin, which was just a coincidence.

It has been a while since the new disciples entered the sect. In addition, the year is approaching, and those disciples who went out have come back one after another, and only a few of them still live and have not returned. However, it does not affect the normal competition.

But then I thought about it, only when the year is approaching, the disciples will gather in the sect. It is indeed the most appropriate to have a big competition at this time, so I made a decision directly: "Compet every year in the future! The winner can pass on a few tricks of the exquisite martial arts of this sect, and the one who has made the most progress is also the same!"

Of course, the last and most important point is to see if there are disciples who can be absorbed into the inner sect. This is not easy to explain, and it will be fine if everyone knows it.

This year's competition starts on November 1st. Ye Wen doesn't know how many days it can compete. He will only know after this competition is over and have a general understanding in his mind.

Ye Wen watched this competition from beginning to end. Although there were no disciples from a few of them participating this time, these Shushan Sect’s highest-ranking students valued it very much.

At the same time, several personal disciples stood by, and they could also comprehend this time. Although these people's skills are not as good as theirs, looking at other people's battles is also beneficial to their cultivation. In addition, Ye Wen said: "Everything must be gone!" So no one dared to absent.

The girl Huang Rongrong also asked for a seat and sat down next to Xu Xian. She didn't think anything was wrong, but just thought she was a VIP invited by Shushan. She looked around and kept pointing at a disciple from time to time and said to Xu Xian: "That person looks very strong, maybe very powerful!"

Every time Xu Xian heard this, he was amused and laughed, and said one sentence: "The body shape has nothing to do with the level of kung fu!"

Huang Rongrong was about to refute it, but then she remembered that Shushan School seemed to have many good kung fu teachings, and those external disciples could learn a good set of internal skills. After understanding internal skills, it is indeed difficult to judge the level of kung fu from the body shape. Internal skills are not like external skills, and there are many requirements for body shape. Moreover, it is difficult for an extra master to practice kung fu deep into the depths. It can be seen from the body shape at a glance if you understand it.

After looking at it for a while, he saw Guo Aniu who was a little stunned. At this time, the boy stood in the crowd and looked around, and occasionally took a look at Ye Wen and the others. He did not realize that he was just a number in the eyes of many people.

Some people even asked each other: "Who met Guo Aniu? Isn't that the same thing for nothing?" - In order to reduce the time of the competition and give everyone the opportunity to play, Ye Wen of this competition directly came to a single-game elimination system. Everyone went to draw a note, and then based on the note, they looked for where they were in the match and compete with them.

So when the lottery was over and the group of people asked each other, they would inevitably hear, "Oh, I actually ran into him! I'm done this time!" "Oh? I don't have to fight in the first round. What a lucky thing!" "Wow, I'll win this time!" "I'll go, you actually met a stupid bull, you're happy this time!" "Hehe!" and so on.

Ye Wen could hear clearly there, but he didn't say anything. He just said in his heart: "It's not a climatic thing!" Before the fight started, these people were like this. He was so impatient that he would probably be an outer disciple for the rest of his life.

But he was sitting there with a tense face, showing his majesty, but he did not directly scold him, but directly ordered Xu Ping, who was in charge of the competition: "Start!"

As the referee, Xu Ping supervised every competition, and when necessary, he would rush in and separate the two of them, so as not to be able to stop the fist and foot, causing serious injuries to a disciple. In addition, Chen Yizhong's apprentice who stayed on the mountain also stood aside, holding a golden sore medicine in one hand and holding a life-saving pill in the other, ready to go on stage for first aid at any time. Anyway, as long as he hangs it in one breath, Ye Wen can save the person. This is also because these disciples are in a low skill and cannot cause too serious injuries.

As Xu Ping stepped into a stone slab flat ground as a ring in advance - this stone slab with five feet on all sides was planned when the Shushan Sect was built and was located in the square where the martial arts practice was practiced. If the disciples wanted to compete, they would choose here, just like a stage for the Shushan Sect.

This competition is also here. Xu Ping went up and said a few words casually, and then announced the start of the competition directly.

"Not at all the talent of a host..." Seeing Xu Ping approaching the subject so directly, Ye Wen muttered casually. However, Ning Ruxue next to him heard it and asked puzzledly: "Senior Brother, what are you saying?"

Since Huang Rongrong yelled for a while and felt that he had treated his junior sister a little unfairly, Ye Wen always smiled when he saw Ning Ruxue and spoke softly: "It's okay, but this competition, the junior sister can take the opportunity to see if there are any disciples he likes, so that she can also get in the door!"

Ning Ruxue just umbrella casually and didn't care. She just said that if she followed Ye Wen in the future, she would not care about whether she would accept her personal disciples. Ye Wen's disciple was her disciple, so she would teach her with all her heart! So she had already put aside her thoughts of finding a disciple.

The two were talking, and the winner was decided on the field. Ye Wen kept paying attention to the field. He saw that the disciple who used the sword used his sword to chop Huashan with one move and directly chopped off the sword's disciple's sword's sword, then crossed the sword and said, "Thank you!" But he directly believed that he had won.

In fact, it was almost the same. The disciple who used the sword to use all his weapons to fight with the man with a pair of flesh palms? He had to hold his fists and salute him, and then walked down in depression.

The disciple who passed the first level of the sword was very satisfied and raised his head and started talking with his familiar friends.

"I actually used a long sword to force a long sword? I don't know what this disciple thought!" Xu Xian shook his head and sighed. He originally wanted to find another disciple to teach him. Seeing this, he thought to himself: "If it's all at this level, I'm afraid there will be no chance in my plan!"

Thinking of this, he suddenly turned his gaze to Liu Muyan standing beside him and found that this person actually had a horse stance, and his right hand was flat as if he was pinching something. He knew that he had made progress with Ye Wen during these days, and he was very concerned about practicing these basic skills. In addition, he couldn't improve his nature when fighting on the field, so he simply started practicing by himself.

Xu Xian saw that although he felt that Liu Muyan was a little old, his perseverance was extraordinary: "Why would you rather be an apprentice at the disciple?"

Just as she was thinking, Huang Rongrong next to her chattered and attracted everyone's attention. When she turned around, she found that it was Guo Aniu who was on the field.
