Ma Ji is only a short paragraph, which makes all the leaders want to cry excitedly..

To them, this cup of immortal tea was the best treatment. It was an unimaginable kindness..

But in Master Ma's mouth, immortal tea is just a trivial matter.

In the future, he would give them more benefits!

Would they be able to live a thousand years and fly in the air?

Of course, these things can be thought about once in a dream..

In real life, they never thought of it that way..

What benefits would Immortal Master Ma bring them?

Ma Ji said:

"We'll let you stay because you're the tycoons of all walks of life in our prefecture..

You control the economic lifeline of our city.

Real estate, banking, roads, waterways, communications, utilities, etc..

These resources should be led by the government, but we leave them to you to manage..

Lord Cao has already said that he'll split it 55/50 with you.

Some of you may feel that 55 cents is a bit of a loss,

Are you saying that now?"

"No loss, no loss, no loss at all!

Even if all our profits are taken away, we are willing!

We'll just be wage earners. We'll get paid enough..

Immortal Master Ma, Lord Cao, don't worry!"

It was indeed like this!

Now these gang leaders are obedient to Ma Ji. Ma Ji tells them to go east, but they will never go west..

Tell them to jump into the river, they will never jump into the sea.

Cao Cao quickly waved his hand and said:

"You misunderstood, I didn't ask you to work..

Of course I'm at ease. With Immortal Ma here, what else is there to worry about?

But rest assured, I will not take away your benefits and profits. Master Ma said that if we make friends with you, we will be equal.

We get our share, and you guys don't get the benefits you deserve,

Don't worry! Listen to Master Ma.

”

Ma Ji said:

"In fact, you have forgotten the most important point. Lord Cao just said 55 cents. There is also a condition that is tax exemption..

Do you think, 1 think, whether there is selling salt, no smoke, building roads, building houses, etc., what proportion of tax revenue accounts for profits? 3%, is it considered small?

So, we'll split 55 cents with you, and you're not losing a penny because you didn't pay taxes before, so you ignored that amount..

We take 50% now, and you take 50% too. This is to protect your interests to the maximum extent!"

When all the gang leaders heard Ma Ji say this, they all looked ashamed..

Hu Han3 wished he could slap himself and say,"Shame! I'm really blinded by lard. I can't even calculate this account clearly. I'm too confused!"

I apologize for letting down Master Ma and Lord Cao's kindness. I sincerely apologize!

50% is too much. One point, Master Ma. Just give us 30% or 20%..

”

Ma Ji smiled and said:

"No, I won't let you suffer.

I know you're all working hard, and what you're doing is fundamental to our entire city..

These industries are the lifeblood of our city.

You have done a good job in making every industry prosperous. This is where we feel very gratified..

Because there are only a limited number of people in our Yamen, so you are actually our Yamen's dispatched personnel..

Therefore, your actions will be protected by the Yamen. Don't worry!

Oh, just now Chief Hu said, what protection fee do you still have to pay?

I know that the situation in this city is rather complicated. Various forces exist and are intertwined..

All right, then, now, please tell us what difficulties you have encountered, what forces are oppressing you, and write down their names.

We'll send someone to deal with the people on these lists immediately..

I promise that in three days, all those who threaten you will disappear!"

After Ma Ji finished speaking, Cao Cao waved his hand, and a group of guards came out from the back hall. They all held pen, ink, paper and inkstone in their hands and gave them to each gang leader..

Ask them to write all the materials Ma Ji needs to write.

These gang leaders looked at each other. They didn't expect Master Ma to be so confident that he would eliminate all the local forces in Chang Yuefu within three days!

How capable was he?

Hu Han3 felt very embarrassed, because he knew that the protection fee he had to pay was very powerful, and his cultivation was much higher than Ma Ji's..

Therefore, Hu Han 31 face tangled said:

"Immortal Master Ma, let me tell you something, because the protection fee I want to pay is for the Heavenly Fire Sect..

”

：.

Ma Ji smiled and said:

"Sky Fire Sect? Is Sky Fire Sect very powerful?"

When the other sect leaders heard these three words, their faces turned pale..

Ma Ji could tell from their expressions that the Heavenly Fire Sect should be very influential in this generation..

Let these leaders be afraid of this.

Hu Han 3 says:

"Master Ma, you're new here, so you might not know..

The Heavenly Fire Sect is on Huding Mountain. Their territory is mainly on the side of Baisha Commandery..

But they always have people coming to us to collect protection money or rob homes..

Because our salt mine needs to be mined on Huding Mountain. This salt mine is within their sect's territory, so the Heavenly Fire Sect wants us to pay protection fees. We…we have no choice!"

At this time, Song Jiang couldn't help but speak:

Our Changsha Prefecture and the Baisha Prefecture have a boundary above Huding Mountain, and the boundary separates left and right from the top of the mountain..

That side belongs to Baeksha County, and this side belongs to our long sterilization..

According to the border regulations, it is impossible for our people to go to their side to mine salt..

And their people can't just come over here..

There are troops stationed on top of Huding Mountain.

Unfortunately, our army is short of personnel and its combat effectiveness is very weak. Therefore, we cannot stop those followers of the Heavenly Fire Sect..

They're constantly harassing our borders, killing and looting in the suburbs..

Some even swaggered into our city..

This is my…our negligence!"

Cheng Yaojin couldn't sit still when he heard this..

He asked in a muffled voice:

"What the hell is Heavenly Fire Sect? Is their sect leader very powerful? Could it be that he bullied our Chang Yuefu? Is there no one in our Bai Sha County who can cure him?"

At this time Hu Hanshan said:

"Oh, their leader is called Kill Tongtian..

I heard that his cultivation is very high. He's a big shot in the Soul Formation Stage..

Their Heavenly Fire Sect mainly uses fire..

He always burns our people..

There were cultivators on our side who fought against them, but they were no match for them. Moreover, they died very miserably. They were all burned to death by the fire..

”

"Oh, so it's a big shot in the Soul Formation Stage..

”

Ma Ji and Cheng Biaojin looked at each other and saw that they were full of fighting spirit from the eyes behind each other..

They're not afraid of killing Tongtian just because he's in the Semi-God stage..

Ma Ji asked again:

"Could it be that the princess of our Bai Sha County has not thought of a way to eliminate this scourge?

Is it possible that the army on Huding Mountain is also guarded by our Changyuefu army? Does Princess Yan not send his army to guard the border?"

Song Jiang spoke again:

"Oh, yes.

The border of this place is guarded by our local army, but Princess Yan has not allocated any funds or sent anyone to help..

Therefore, our equipment and combat strength are very weak. We can't block the fierce attacks of those fanatics from the Heavenly Fire Sect!

Our army is also just a decoration, we can only let them do whatever they want.

”

Ma Ji smiled faintly and said:

"That's very strange. Isn't Princess Yan afraid that the Heavenly Fire Sect will grow stronger and stronger and annex our Chang Yuefu?"

Song Jiang said:

"I am not very clear about the specific reasons.

After so many years of investigation, I found that it may have something to do with the Netherworld Sea..

Or King Mahu, he may have special instructions..

Because it's very illogical..

I didn't expect Princess Yan to make such an arrangement. What did he mean by that?"

Ma Ji nodded and said:

"Ah, so that's how it is. That's easy.".

Since the people of the Heavenly Fire Sect can come to our side without any scruples, then we can also go to their side?

The so-called coming and not returning is indecent!"
