Chapter 1095
The reason why Ye Xiao was shocked by the conversation between Zhang Yuge and the disciples in the martial arts arena was because he heard Zhang Yuge tell the other party, ‘After today’s performance, everyone can receive 10,000 Cotton Country currency.’
Even the dozen or so disciples were all temporarily found by Xiong Annan and Zhang Yuge to make up the numbers. This shows how desolate the Cotton Country Wu Ji is. At that time, Ye Xiao almost wanted to run away directly.
It seems that I was too naive before. I thought that I only needed to lead the team to Cotton Country. Even if there were obstacles, they would be against M Country and Neon Country. I never thought that the Cotton Country Wu Ji would be so rotten.
Ye Xiao also didn’t believe that his parents didn’t know anything about this before. He was definitely being cheated again!
Hearing Ye Xiao’s words, the expression on Xiong Annan’s face suddenly froze. In an instant, his mind was full of thoughts, but he couldn’t say a word.
"You, how did you know?"
Zhang Yuge stared at Ye Xiao in amazement, as if he had seen a ghost in broad daylight.
He believed that his arrangement was flawless! And the master's injury, he pretended so well, how come Ye Xiao saw through it at a glance.
Ye Xiao ignored Zhang Yuge, but stared at Xiong Annan with a sharp gaze and said: "President Xiong, I hope you can tell me honestly, what is going on? Don't treat me, Ye Xiao, as a three-year-old child."
Hearing Ye Xiao's words, Xiong Annan couldn't help blushing. He stood up and paced hurriedly in the courtyard with his hands behind his back.
After a long time, he sighed and said, "Elder Ye, do you know how difficult it is to open a martial arts school in Cotton Country?"
"No money, no people, and being excluded by local martial arts forces."
Ye Xiao sneered, "No money? Doesn't the headquarters give you funding?" Ye Xiao knew that all branches of the Wu Ji Association received a subsidy from the headquarters every year.
"No people? As a martial artist, can't you rely on your own strength to recruit disciples?"
"Excluded? Where is there no competition?" Ye Xiao refuted them one by one in a stern voice.
"President Xiong, these are not reasons you can use to defend your incompetence."
"Shut up, Mr. Ye, you don't know how bad the local situation is." Zhang Yuge pointed at Ye Xiao and scolded him angrily.
"I admit that we just lied to you, but my master has tried his best. If it were someone else, they wouldn't be able to stay here for a month."
"Do you know how long my master has persisted?"
"Ten years."
Hearing this, Ye Xiao frowned.
"Yuege, sit down!"
After Xiong Annan reprimanded, he turned around and continued to say to Ye Xiao: "Elder Ye, the subsidy you mentioned from the General Association can only pay the rent of the land under our feet. Moreover, Cotton Country is not like Dragon Country. It has the strong support of the local government and can also start some side businesses to compensate for income and expenditure."
"You said recruiting disciples. I brought ten disciples from South Island in the first year. Do you know how many disciples we had in the second year?"
"Only Yuege!"
"Not only can we not recruit people, but even our own disciples all ran away because of the difficult conditions."
"And the original martial arts school forces in the local area are more powerful than you can imagine. Their status is equivalent to our Wu Jihui in the mainland. If they want to suppress us, what can I use to compete? "
Hearing Xiong Tiannan's words, Ye Xiao couldn't help but be moved.
Without investigation, there is no right to speak. What he just said was indeed a bit subjective.
"Chairman Xiong, since the Cotton Country Wu Ji Association is in such a difficult situation, why don't you explain the situation to the General Assembly and ask them to send people to support. "
"Alas!"
Xiong Tiannan sighed helplessly, "The General Assembly did send people. Before you, three elders had been sent, but the longest one only stayed for half a month and left because he couldn't stand it. "
"I also proposed to the General Assembly to resign, or directly dissolve the Cotton Country Wu Ji Association. Do you know what the General Assembly said? "
"They asked me to wait for three years, saying that they would let me go back after the three years were up. "
"And I waited for three three years, and they actually asked me to wait for another three years. Infernal Affairs is over! "
"This..."
Ye Xiao was completely speechless.
It sounds like it's not all Xiong Annan's fault. In such an environment, anyone who comes here will probably complain!
No wonder Xiong Annan and Zhang Yuge, the master and apprentice, are so enthusiastic about his arrival. They are planning to let him be the 'receiver'!
"Elder Ye, since we have talked about it, it's up to you to decide whether to stay or leave! I won't force it." Xiong Annan said in a deep voice, stiffening his neck.
In fact, Ye Xiao also had his own reasons for taking this step. Otherwise, how could he say that he would give up this place where he had devoted more than ten years of hard work?Let go of the hand.
"Master, no! We can't stay in Cotton Country anymore, they..." Zhang Yuge was anxious when she heard Xiong Annan let Ye Xiao go.
Xiong Annan raised one hand and signaled Zhang Yuge to shut up, then said in a distracted manner: "Yuge, I have made up my mind. Since the things here are caused by us, let us bear the responsibility ourselves!"
Hearing the conversation between the two, Ye Xiao couldn't help but raise his eyebrows.
"President Xiong, are you in trouble now? You can tell me, I will try my best to help you solve it."
In fact, after contacting this master and apprentice, Ye Xiao found that neither of them was a wicked person. He guessed that the other party should have encountered some difficulties.
Although Ye Xiao looked down on the master and apprentice for teasing him, they were all fellow disciples of Wu Jihui after all. Since he met them, he naturally couldn't turn a blind eye.
Moreover, his parents entrusted him with the task of leading the team to participate in the martial arts exchange meeting. Even if the pit was a bit deep, since he had taken over, he could not give up easily.
"You?"
Zhang Yuge sneered, "You don't know a shit about the situation in Cotton Country. What's the point of telling you?"
"Mr. Ye, I think you should stop talking nonsense here. Pack up and leave!"
At this time, Zhang Yuge felt very complicated about Ye Xiao. He felt a little guilty and guilty about being seen through. At the same time, he also knew that the Cotton Country Wu Ji Association would encounter great troubles.
Even they who had a foundation in Cotton Country for more than ten years could not solve it, so naturally they did not believe that Ye Xiao had the ability to do so.
Maybe the master's approach was not wrong. They should bear it themselves and not implicate Ye Xiao, who was innocent.
Ye Xiao ignored Zhang Yuge's ridicule. He stood up and looked straight at Xiong Annan and said, "President Xiong, I am the elder of Cotton Country appointed by the Dragon Country General Association. My mission is to lead the Cotton Country Martial Arts Association to participate in the Nanyang Martial Arts Exchange Conference."
"I will not leave Cotton Country until this goal is achieved."
"I say, why are you so stubborn?" Zhang Yuge was annoyed by Ye Xiao's words and scolded him harshly.
"You have seen the situation here now. There are only two disciples, me and my junior sister, in the entire Cotton Country Martial Arts Association. We can't even meet the minimum registration threshold. What can you use to participate?"
"And do you know how difficult it is to get a place to participate in the Martial Arts Exchange Conference? There is only one martial arts hall in the entire Cotton Country that can get the qualification. Do you think we can compete with other martial arts halls?"
Zhang Yuge's words were both a cold water pouring on Ye Xiao to dispel his ridiculous idea and his helpless bowing to reality.
