Chapter 32

Zhang Muzhi is dead!
Died on the side of the road, on an ordinary weekday in late October.

The body was discovered in the morning, and the police immediately arranged for the body to be collected, and the matter was left alone after that.

Of course, it wasn't that no one came to make trouble. Li Yong heard from Zhao Bingjun that a local bookseller in Tianjin came to the police station to look for him, and he was talking about Zhang Muzhi.

But soon Zhao Bingjun gave that place a taste of the iron fist of feudalism. The bookstore was closed as soon as it was closed, the factory was directly seized, and the bookseller was naturally imprisoned.

This wasn't Zhao Bingjun's intention to trouble him. Although he took advantage of Li Yong's suggestion, it was indeed his side that found the problem.

In fact, if you think about it, you will know how a businessman who can come up with such commercial espionage methods can be so clean. It is fine not to investigate and no one cares about it. If you investigate, you really can't help but investigate.

And it's true that he has backers, but I heard that Zhao Bingjun personally handled it, and those so-called backers have all died down.

Zhao Bingjun is not just Zhao Bingjun, not to mention that he may also represent Yuan Shikai behind him. He also has his own network in Tianjin. If others want to put pressure on him, they have to consider whether they can handle this at the same time. Network, especially if they are in the wrong.

And taking advantage of this opportunity, Zhao Bingjun just took the opportunity to rectify Tianjin's publishing industry, and even "New Novels" were affected.

Of course, if there are people with face or money, things will be fine soon, otherwise, regardless of whether the problem is found in the investigation, the skin will basically be peeled off.

Regardless of Zhao Bingjun's prestige by doing things like this, the matter finally settled with Zhang Muzhi's death.

Although the result was somewhat beyond Li Yong's needs, he still had to thank Zhao Bingjun out of reason, so he naturally treated him well at Guyuelou.

Well, the farm boss pays the bill.

Whether it is Huo Yuanjia or Nong Jinsun, after hearing about this incident, they also know that this incident must have something to do with Li Yong.

It's just that they were originally on Li Yong's side, not to mention Zhang Muzhi did something wrong.

Moreover, Li Yong promised to give him a chance, and there was no need to lie to him, so it was obvious that his greed finally killed him.

Of course, this incident also caused some troubles. Although the booksellers who cooperated with Zhang Muzhi were punished, there were also some people who either simply couldn't stand "Tianlong" or were jealous after seeing the profits of "Dragon". He actually used this matter to challenge Li Yong.

Although Zhao Bingjun took this opportunity to cause a wave of troubles, it is impossible for him to offend everyone severely, and sometimes he may even need to give them a proper vent.

They had nothing to do with Zhao Bingjun. Naturally, they could only use Li Yong, who was pushed out by Zhao Bingjun, to "sacrifice the flag", even if it was just to disgust him.

Newspapers even published news that the two creators of "Dragon" parted ways due to differences, and one of the authors died as a result.

The inside and outside of the words lead the suspicion to Li Yong, the "biggest beneficiary".

Especially in the latest issue of "New Novel", "Tianlong" directly stopped an issue, which almost confirmed this point, which also intensified the suspicion of "Golden Hero".

After all, how come you can't write a book once another creative partner dies? Could it be that you just put on a name, but in fact you didn't write it at all?
Then he killed the real author and replaced him, but he couldn't think of what to write, so he had no choice but to stop writing.

Fortunately, this incident has little impact on "New Novel", because a capable person named Wu Jianren came here recently, and his denunciation novel "Strange Situation Witnessed in 20 Years" was immediately well received as soon as it was released.

Unlike "Tianlong", 20 years ago, it can be regarded as the preference of the original audience of "New Novel". At the same time, it also attracted many new readers with its spicy writing and targeted narrative.

Probably only readers like Yuan Kewen who only want to read "Tianlong" will send a special telegram for this purpose. It is said that he was in Shanghai recently, and went to meet guests on behalf of Yuan Shikai, which can be regarded as an opportunity for him to exercise.

It just so happened that a telegraph communication had been established long ago from Shanghai to Tianjin, and he sent it directly to the police station, and then Zhao Bingjun came to the door and urged him to make an update on the spot.

Others would definitely listen to rumors, but Yuan Kewen certainly wouldn't.

Of course Zhao Bingjun would not, and even he would like to see this kind of situation.

And probably because he was worried about Li Yong's objections, he even came over to ask Huo Yuanjia and other martial arts masters to go to the police station in advance to "visit and provide guidance" as a way to compensate Li Yong.

But he was really wrong, Li Yong really didn't care about this.

Regarding his reputation and the like, although he has actively integrated into this era and society, he still clearly knows that he is just a passer-by here.

Therefore, I am very open about money gain and reputation.

This disposition even surprised Huo Yuanjia and Nong Jinsun. After all, even Huo Yuanjia now has the cultivation base and disposition of a master, and he dare not say that he can do this. self-sorrow".

Li Yong just smiled at this, and didn't know how to answer their questions.

However, this trip to the police station is still very necessary for Huo Yuanjia and the others.

You must know that in the past, the profession of martial artist was a bit looked down upon.

In fact, you can see where Huo Yuanjia's original disciples hang out later. Those who practice martial arts are only those who are not in their prime. It is said that they are "poor and rich in martial arts", but rich people practice martial arts as a hobby. , The poor want to rely on this to get ahead.

Speaking of which, in the previous society, these martial artists were counted as one, but they were all considered "unsettled elements", and they were naturally opposed to the court tolerance like patrolmen.

Now they have to enter the police station in a grand manner, which really makes them feel a little unbelievable and a little excited.

Of course, only the head of the police station like Zhao Bingjun would dare to make such a move.

Besides him, there are two consultants, one from Germany and one from Japan, both of whom have great ideas about traditional Chinese martial arts, so naturally they would not reject such cooperation.

After this time, I believe that in the hearts of those martial arts masters, the status of masters and disciples Huo Yuanjia and Li Yong will be elevated again.

Now Huo Yuanjia has become the leader in the minds of people who practice martial arts in Tianjin, and Li Yong, as a nominal "big disciple", has also risen in status.

In this case, who would care if he plagiarized and killed his collaborators?

Even if it's true, it's one size fits all, not to mention this kind of gossip, people who have contact with him will definitely not care.

"By the way, are you looking for a new martial arts address?"

In addition to coming here to visit and guide, they also got another good news from Zhao Bingjun.

It turned out that a German diplomat's term of office was up and he was about to hand over. At the same time, he also planned to sell his mansion. It happened to be in Zhao Bingjun's jurisdiction and he happened to have a relationship with a German consultant, so he naturally got the news.

"The mansion..." Li Yong and Nong Jinsun looked at each other, then nodded, "Then let's go and have a look in the afternoon..."

Zhao Bingjun laughed and said, "Yes, I will go with you when the time comes."
