Chapter 1835 The Beggars' Sect Leader Becomes Famous

They were a pretty good benefit, and they paid quite a bit. I asked them, "What if those geniuses didn't want to leave?" They said they generally wouldn't. After all, those with parents around wouldn't want to go to the city to work. They hadn't taken care of their parents yet, the crops they grew each year were fixed, their elderly parents couldn't work anymore, and their younger siblings were still young. Even if they wanted to venture out, they couldn't leave. If they did, their families would be completely starving. The family would still have to cover the rations and grain payments, unless their parents were all dead and there was no one left to support. After all, it was impossible to get a household registration in the city. Going there meant begging for money, and if they couldn't even support themselves, how could they possibly go home? Zuo Chenwei suddenly had the idea to pick some people here and bring them back as beggars, paying for their own income. I agreed. After all, they'd already been causing us so much trouble. If we didn't have a few powerful people under our wing, it was hard to believe they could just slowly recruit people from the city. But if we directly poach people from here and give them benefits that are twice as much as being a genius, will those people voluntarily bring their children here to beg? We also set up a company and a group, and use the money to support those people. It’s not that we have money and nothing to do, but we want to let those people know who is the real boss. It does take money to win people’s hearts, but it also takes sincerity to impress them. After being here for a long time, the villagers also think of us as family. Sometimes they give us food for free, but we don’t want to. Not only do we help the villagers with work, but we also find ways to recruit those people to come to the city to beg. After entering the city, they can join the Beggars’ Gang. They are not the kind of small beggars who are alone outside, but there are groups. Even if there is no food today, as long as they join the Beggars’ Gang, they will not starve to death. If they want to survive, they still have to be better off than they are now. I asked Zuo Chenwei curiously, how can those annual rations be exempted? It is impossible for these people to be exempted from their annual quota. They still have to do as much work as they are supposed to do, but he didn't say so. There is a way to exempt this family from their annual quota, and that is to spend money. The money they want to spend is indeed not a small amount, but we now have a large consortium, that is Zhang Yue. He has a household registration and can still make money. Now he has made a lot of money relying on his connections. In many cases, family background is also very important. It is worth it to make this friend. Since the establishment of the Beggars' Gang, this money has been enough to support these people. Now, as long as more people are taken away, the income created in the future will roll back hundreds or thousands of times, which is like a snowball. We could immediately think of how much money we could make in the future, and we were a little excited. We all chatted happily here, thinking about what to do next. We just wanted to develop the Beggars' Sect well. Soon, many young people joined the Beggars' Sect because of our reputation. The title of the leader of the Beggars' Sect was also very popular for a while, but it was always suppressed over there. Fan Qian meant for everyone to be more restrained and not make such a big fuss. Zhang Yue was only responsible for making money, not for anything else, while Wu Peng was responsible for teaching those people some methods and self-protection abilities, how to practice a set of martial arts unique to their own practice system in a short period of time, so that everyone can strengthen their body. The death rate of beggars is very high, but after joining our Beggars' Sect, those who starve to death, freeze to death, and die of exhaustion no longer exist. The weak can also slowly change their physique through practice, so that at least they will not die because of such a small thing. Even if they encounter danger in the future, they will die in the charge, not from starvation or exhaustion. We now have a military advisor in our team, and the Beggars' Sect also has one. Fan Qian's suggestion is to be more restrained and not to be so ostentatious, otherwise those people will come and attack us. Wu Luanpei disagrees. After all, he has experienced many wars, big and small. He believes that we should seize the opportunity to pursue those people. The more they dare not act, the more they think we are powerful and the more they think their fate is almost over, the more we should charge and turn the world upside down. Zuo Chenwei listened to what these two people said and thought it made sense. He asked me to make a suggestion. I said, "Give them a push with the money, but be more restrained when it comes to recruiting soldiers."
