What do heroes in martial arts novels do for a living? What do they make money from?

Many people want to know: heroes in the martial arts world eat big meat, drink big wine and spend a lot of money everywhere. They don't seem to have jobs. Where did all this money come from? As the old saying goes, the poor are rich in weapons. Children from poor families can study literature at low cost. But if you want to learn martial arts, it will cost a lot. Therefore, many families who can afford their children to learn martial arts are rich. If you want to be a hero, you can't have money at home Besides, you make friends everywhere in the Jianghu. Who will play with you if you don't pay?

Some heroes will kill people in the Jianghu, gain some benefits and even become professional killers. Kill a person, how much money the employer gives, the price is based on quality, and the child is still alive. This is a way to make money.

There are some big sects in the Jianghu that need chivalrous men as their thugs, but this is a formal establishment. Chivalrous men work in Zhuangzi, landlords pay wages and benefits on time, and there are many things like rice, oil, salt, sauce, vinegar and tea. A chivalrous man with an iron rice bowl can go out to make extra money and build a cave or something. In the worst case, if you learn to move from time to time, you can steal the chicken that announces dawn in the restaurant, pull out some garlic sprouts, and mix two pence.

In addition, more so-called knights, their money mainly comes from gray income, or illegal income, such as robbery. ...

Of course, robbing the poor can't make money, mainly under the banner of "robbing the rich to help the poor" to rob big businessmen and big landlords. Take a bag of gold and silver and jump off the wall in the dark and windy night. Will they really give money to the poor? Individuals will, or give a small part to the poor, and the rest will fall into their own pockets.

None of the above are so advanced knights. Some chivalrous men are high-ranking officials, have great face in the Jianghu, or have made a fortune from scratch at the bottom. The old rich man around the landlord knew what he could do, so he wanted to curry favor with him and give him some money. In fact, he gave him protection money. Money snowballs, and the richer you get, the richer you get. Some heroes can't spend all their money at home.

The world in martial arts novels basically does not exist, but the martial arts rivers and lakes are real. It is absolutely impossible to wander the Jianghu without money, and the chivalrous man is on the edge of a society ruled by law, going in and out in black and white, making some white or black money. In today's society, there is no social soil for heroes to survive. So advise friends who still have martial arts dreams not to think about it.
