In Xianwu, people evolve infinitely starting from the prince

Ma Yuanfeng.

Haizhou, Tiannan County, Yanghe County.

One of the three deputy gang leaders of the Jinhai Gang, he is nicknamed Haihu Scholar.

Sea fox, also known as mahi mahi, ghost head knife, flying fish tiger, etc., is one of the most cunning creatures in the sea.

Because the sea fox's appearance is too gorgeous, it is very inconvenient to hunt. Many of the prey in sight are aware of it before it approaches and run away.

Therefore, sea foxes have learned to cleverly use the terrain and surrounding environment to hunt. When encountering natural enemies, they will even lie on the seabed and pretend to be dead. They are not cunning, so they are called sea foxes.

As the saying goes: There are only wrong names, not wrong nicknames.

The fact that Ma Yuanfeng received the nickname "Sea Fox Scholar" is enough to know what type of person he is.

This person is the White Paper Fan of the Jinhai Gang, a think-tank-like figure.

Moreover, Ma Yuanfeng could step by step from a child of a small family in the county to become the deputy leader of the Jinhai Gang. Even with the help of his father-in-law, the elder of the Jinhai Gang, it was enough to prove his own talents.

After all, in this world of immortal martial arts, it is not easy to make a living.

Blacksmith need its own hardware.

If you are not a real talent, why would a wealthy family marry you?

In fact.

Don't talk about marrying a daughter from a wealthy family to you.

Even if I want to recruit you as my wife, you need to show sufficient value.

Ma Yuanfeng was able to gain the approval of a second-level martial arts master, marry the daughter of the chief elder of the Jinhai Gang, and gain important employment from the top brass of the Jinhai Gang, gradually climbing to the position of deputy leader of the Jinhai Gang.

From this we can know that his talent is genuine.

In particular, the deputy leader of Ma is only forty years old, but he is already a third-level martial arts master. If he is trained a little, he will not talk about becoming a first-level martial arts grand master in the future, but will work hard to break through to the second-level martial arts master. There is still hope.

Plus his father-in-law, the great elder of the Jinhai Gang who is a second-grade martial arts master.

If you can conquer this person.

Not to mention how much help it can bring to myself.

At least it can help him take down the Jinhai Gang and master the cornucopia of Haizhou water transportation.

Based on the situation of the Jinhai Gang in Haizhou, including salt, iron, smuggling and other businesses.

I dare not say more.

It's okay to pay yourself three to five million taels of silver a year.

This is undoubtedly a huge temptation for Yang An, who is impoverished and has no one to rely on.

After all, he is just a prince of Daqian. Even if he becomes the prince of Daqian, or even the prince of Daqian, he still cannot change the status quo that no one can help him.

No one is available.

That means you have to do everything yourself, and there is no way to quickly collect resources.

But when it comes to Yang An's level, ordinary innate warriors are incompetent at all. If you want to maintain your reputation, you must have a few third-level martial arts god transformation masters, or even second-level martial arts masters.

Even without the support of a first-level martial arts grand master, you are embarrassed to tell others that you are the Prince of Daqian, and you are not even qualified to compete for the position of Prince of Daqian.

The little grandmaster of the third level of martial arts and the master of the magic form of the second level of martial arts are not cabbage.

There are only a hundred or so Daozhous.

If you want to recruit them, you can't succeed by just talking.

You have to pay real money and get real benefits.

Now, Yang An is taking advantage of the King's Examination. If he can completely subdue the Jinhai Gang, he will gain the allegiance of a second-level martial arts master and several third-level martial arts masters.

This is much more cost-effective than a one-time deal.

Of course, Yang An also knew that it was not that easy to truly subdue a third-grade martial arts master.

Especially gangsters like Ma Yuanfeng, who are basically the "if you have breasts, you're a mother" type, it's simply impossible to completely gain their allegiance.

But Yang An didn't care about this either.

As long as he is strong enough, he is not afraid of betrayal and resistance from his subordinates.

After all, there is no such thing as 100% loyalty in the world.

The so-called loyalty is nothing more than insufficient bargaining chips for betrayal.

He only needs Ma Yuanfeng and others to be obedient and able to collect resources for him.

Anyway, there is no need to pay wages, there are so many requirements, and there is no need for a bicycle.

Yang Anxin thought about it for a thousand times, and in just a moment, he made the decision to kneel at his feet and sell out Ma Yuanfeng to everyone in the Jinhai Gang and all the dignitaries in Tiannan City.

"good!"

"I am very pleased that you can find your way back from your lost ways and atone for your sins."

"But as one of the leaders of the Jinhai Gang, if you want to reduce your sins with a ledger, it is definitely not enough."

"Over the years, the Jinhai Gang has robbed, bullied and dominated the market, controlled water transportation, smuggled salt and iron, evaded taxes, etc., which not only caused great harm to the people of Haizhou, but also caused great losses to the imperial court."

"If you can make up for the losses caused by the Jinhai Gang to the imperial court, eliminate the stubborn and lawless members of the gang, compensate the victims, and abide by the law and abide by the imperial decrees in the future."

"I don't mind giving you a chance to reform and see the consequences."

Yang An said leisurely.

Such words cannot be said to be unfair, glorious and majestic.

When Ma Yuanfeng heard this, he was inexplicably excited and said: "Thank you for your kindness, Your Highness. I will obey Your Highness's will. I will definitely make up for the losses of the court, change my ways, serve Your Highness, go through fire and water, and never give up."

He is a smart man, so he naturally understands Yang An's underlying meaning.

Oppressing the people, plundering, smuggling salt and iron, colluding with pirates, etc. are not big things.

What is really important is to give Yang An enough benefits, and from now on, he must obey Yang An's orders, and not be arrogant and high-profile like before, which will ruin Yang An's reputation.

Yang An listened to Ma Yuanfeng's words of loyalty, and said expressionlessly: "Okay, I will send someone to inform you later on how to improve it, and assist you in completing it."

"Your current task is to take people to the Imperial City Division to identify all the stubborn lawbreakers, including the leader of the Jinhai Gang, Yin Kaishan, so that the court can punish them and set an example."

"In addition, you need to appease all the dock workers and boatmen as soon as possible, maintain the order of Haizhou Canal Transportation, and must not cause too much unrest, understand?"

Originally, Yang An wanted to wipe out the Jinhai Gang and hand over Haizhou Canal Transportation to the Imperial City Division for management.

Now that Ma Yuanfeng, the deputy leader of the Jinhai Gang, has pledged his loyalty.

Then there is no need to completely wipe out the Jinhai Gang.

After all, it is better to control such a key and important place as Haizhou Canal Transport, where money comes quickly, in one's own hands.

Ma Yuanfeng certainly cannot be fully trusted.

But is it not the same for Wei Dayong of the Imperial City Department?

And compared with Ma Yuanfeng, the deputy leader of the Jinhai Gang, Wei Dayong, the military marquis who is in charge of the Haizhou Imperial City Department, is undoubtedly more difficult to control.

So Yang An thought about it and finally decided to hand over the Jinhai Gang to Ma Yuanfeng.

Ma Yuanfeng didn't know what Yang An really thought.

After hearing what Yang An said, he was shocked.

Because it was less than half an hour before the court strongmen attacked the Jinhai Gang's headquarters outside the city.

As a result, in this short period of less than half an hour, the court strongmen had broken the protective formation of the Jinhai Gang headquarters outside the city, and even the leader Yin Kaishan, who was a second-grade master of martial arts, had been captured.

This shocked Ma Yuanfeng completely.

Even the eyes looking at Yang An, the thirteenth prince of Daqian, became more awed and dared not look directly at him.

Is this the true strength of the Daqian court?

It is so terrifying.

Horrible, terrible!
