Chapter 9 Mohist Martial Arts School
"Brother Gu!"
After seven days, when Mo Qiu saw Gu Dan again, he seemed to have a thousand words to say.
For example, are you trusting me too much?
For example, isn't it too rash for you to just call people over and let me take charge of the renovation?
But he paused when the words came to his lips. Gu Dan trusted him very much. He kept asking questions like this. Was it because he didn't trust him or did he think Gu Dan didn't know how to judge people? Although he always felt something was wrong, Gu Dan's sincere love for him was not fake at all.
"Brother Mo, are you going to ask me why I just ignored it?"
Gu Dan took the initiative and said earnestly: "I know nothing about martial arts school affairs. Professional matters should be left to professionals. If I were here, Brother Mo would probably consider my opinion, which would be bad."
"Brother Gu's trust in me is really..." Mo Qiu felt a little speechless for a moment.
He considered himself to be an upright person, and it was impossible for him to hand over the family business to others without any interference.
"Okay, let's not talk about this anymore. Come out and see what I brought!" Gu Dan pulled Mo Qiu into the yard without saying a word.
I saw two people holding a huge plaque with four words written on it.
Mohist Martial Arts School!
"I specially asked the disciple of the chief steward of the Ministry of Internal Affairs to write this sign, and then I asked a craftsman to copy it. Although the imperial capital is big, it is obvious that few people would dare to cause trouble with this sign." Gu Dan said confidently.
As the saying goes, a man's reputation is like the shadow of a tree.
The Director of the Imperial Household Department was a second-rank official. Although the calligraphy left by his disciples might not be very precious, it symbolized an indispensable relationship.
When ordinary people go to do things, they can't help but be humble and look at other people's faces.
But he was wearing the uniform of a ninth-rank official, and especially since he was so young, no one looked down on him.
In addition, after introducing himself, I learned that Gu Dan had become a ninth-rank physician in the Imperial Medical Bureau at such a young age, and was specially promoted by the emperor.
For a moment, it seemed as if he was not the one asking for help, but was treated with great courtesy.
Everyone hates it when others use connections to get things through the back door, but when they use it themselves, they realize how damn convenient it is! When you get to a higher level, you will always meet more "good people".
Although the ninth-rank medical officer did not hold a high official position and had a low status, it was the Imperial Medical Bureau after all. No matter how poorly it was, its reports could be directly reported to the emperor, not to mention that Gu Dan had once caught the emperor's eye.
Although Emperor Zongming had forgotten him, others did not know! He had little interest in officialdom, but he was still happy to make friends with others.
You have feelings and I have intentions, so naturally both guests and hosts will be happy and everything will go smoothly.
"Mo Family Martial Arts School? This is your family business, how can you give it this name!"
It would have been better if Mo Qiu hadn't looked at it, but when he did, he almost couldn't breathe.
Why is his intention to usurp the throne becoming stronger and stronger? Could it be that Gu Dan is really his long-lost brother?
"It's just a word."
Gu Dan waved his hand nonchalantly, "Brother Mo has cleared out bandits twice and has made a name for himself. Borrowing your name to open a martial arts school will let people know our abilities. If I name it the Gu Family Martial Arts School, who would know who I am?"
"Even so, this is too..."
Mo Qiu, who was used to seeing many storms, was speechless for a moment.
When Gu Dan does things, there are always unexpected things.
And he always manages to say something that makes sense to cover it up, which makes him seem a little too pedantic for being so jumpy.
"I didn't inform Brother Mo about this matter before, so I hope Brother Mo won't blame me for acting on my own!" Gu Dan said immediately without giving Mo Qiu a chance to finish his words.
Naturally, he also has his own little thoughts.
Since Moqiu did not run away with the money, it proves that he is not tempted by external things and is trustworthy.
In this case, it is natural to tie Mo Qiu to his side. This is a big bodyguard! Not to mention that he also has to learn martial arts from Mo Qiu. Being good to Mo Qiu is a bet on his own future.
Compared to going to other martial arts schools and begging for help but not necessarily learning the true skills, what does this little effort count for? Return sincerity for sincerity! "Why would I blame you? Brother Gu is so sincere to others. I have never seen such sincerity before. I cannot compare to him." Mo Qiu shook his head and said with emotion.
"There's no need for you and me to flatter each other. I have accomplished more than just one plaque in these seven days."
Gu Dan pointed at another honest middle-aged man and said with a smile: "This is the chef I specially found. He is the direct disciple of the imperial chef in the imperial kitchen. We will have good meals in the future!"
Food is the first necessity of the people, and even more so for those who practice martial arts.
Nutrition is a must!
Ingredients are only one aspect, the chef’s skills are also of paramount importance.
At his age, beauty can come later, but not food. Not even one bowl less.
He found this royal chef through Andy Hui’s connections.
"Cook."
The middle-aged man was taciturn. He glanced at Mo Qiu, said his name, and stopped talking.
The word "庖" means kitchen.
The name Pao Sheng can be understood as a person who lives in the kitchen.
Pao Sheng was a disciple adopted by the imperial chef after his retirement. He even chose his name himself, which was simple and direct.
The latest novel is published first on Liu9shuba!
After another round of conversation, Gu Dan got down to business.
He also had to open his pharmacy, but he could no longer get medicinal materials from the Imperial Medical Bureau.
Going to the prison to provide treatment can be said to be preserving the country's manpower, and using medicinal materials from the Imperial Hospital is also natural. Even if someone finds fault with it, it's no big deal.
But the pharmacy is a real personal name, and there is no need to take risks for a little profit.
He still contacted the supply channels of the Imperial Medical Bureau. Compared with the Imperial Medical Bureau, what he wanted was not even two or three kittens.
But the other party was very polite and only asked for the cost price, just as a good relationship.
The so-called relationship is built step by step.
Although the dog emperor did not die a good death, he still held an official position and could do things openly!
Invisibly, it saved him a lot of trouble.
At this time, the entire house was under construction, so his pharmacy certainly could not be opened yet, but the plaque had already been decided.
Health medicine shop.
It wasn't a particularly original name, but it suited his taste perfectly.
In addition to these important matters, he also spent a small amount of money to let a group of children promote the Mohist Martial Arts School.
What? You don't know about Mohist Martial Arts School?
It's the martial arts school opened by the great hero Mo, who was nine feet tall and had the strength to move a mountain and pacified two thieves' dens within two months!
If he was not afraid of attracting too much attention and unnecessary trouble, he would even want to ask a storyteller to make up a story about "Mo Qiu's three battles with the bandits in the forest and the Mohist martial arts school's first display of power" and tell it several times every day.
Everything was on the right track, and he was finally able to start practicing martial arts as he wished.
Before that, I have to go to the Imperial Hospital and talk to Andy Hui.
After all, in name he is still Andy Hui's medical practitioner and will be living in the old house in the future, so he still has to say hello.
However, just as he walked out of the door, Gu Dan stopped.
He saw an unexpected visitor.
Alchemist, Qingpingzi.
"My friend, we meet again."
Qingpingzi had a smile on his face and his voice was bright and clear, making people feel like they were in the spring breeze.
Gu Dan's heart sank suddenly.
