1495 Good Move (1/2)
In the City of Chaos, a piece of empty land was not as valuable as before. When the forces had done dominating the territories in the city, the price of land would definitely drop. Ye Xiao was definitely an important client to the Brotherhood Alliance at the moment.
Qiu Luo had been negotiating with the Brotherhood Alliance about the price for three days. He had figured out the floor price. Now that things were going to change soon, and he wasn't going to cut the price. The Brotherhood Alliance was absolutely overjoyed because they could still sell it for as much money as they had asked for. It was at war, and they needed as much money as they could get, so the deal was done!Find authorized novels in Webnovel,faster updates, better experience,Please click for visiting.
It was sold for one hundred and fifty thousand purple spirit coins.
Ye Xiao bought a huge piece of land that was three hundred and seventy-five mu, including over ten mansions, a wood, a pond, and some shops. Native people were living inside the area…
Ye Xiao gave an order, and the Dark Evil Spirt and Bai Long moved out together. They started to give the native people money so they moved out of the area in return.
It was a chaotic time in the city. Peace was no longer with them. Most of the native people wanted to run away, leaving this place. When a space ring full of white spirit coins appeared before their eyes, they couldn't refuse it!
It was quite an easy job to move the residents away. Other than the money, Ye Xiao promised the residents safety when they left the city. That was why it became so easy.
Nobody would resist it.
People knew that this city had become a place of war. Different forces would fight to seize ownership. It was a battle that wouldn't end in a short time. When the superior cultivators fought, ordinary people could easily get killed. It wasn't a rare thing.
No matter how they did not want to leave their homeland, they had to run for peace and safety. Life mattered the most. Running away from danger was the priority.
As long as they left, their houses would be taken.
Even if they would return to this city, it was difficult to claim their houses back. Why not just sell them for money? It was much better to carry more money with them! That was a more realistic choice!
…
Ye Xiao had cleared out the headquarters of the Monarch's Hall before noon. It cost him only half a day.
Over three hundred and seventy mu of land, there were only five men in it.
Ye Xiao waved his hand and gave the order. ”Rebuild!”
What he meant was to build the wall to enclose the land first, and then build what they needed inside.
He was going to enclose the three hundred and seventy mu of land with the one hundred high walls to cut off the connection between the Monarch's Hall and the outside world.
Because he bought the land from the Brotherhood Alliance, they provided protection as additional service.
After all, they had received a great deal of money. Before the construction finished, they should provide protection to keep their client safe…
However, the Brotherhood Alliance had made a clear time limit. ”We will only keep you safe for three months!”
Three months.
The Dark Evil Spirit, Bai Long, and Qiu Luo all weren't satisfied. 'How are we going to finish anything in just three months?'
Bu Xiangfeng had a different view though. 'That is too much!'
'With me here, the Brotherhood Alliance is not deeded!'
'You should all know who I am!'
Ye Xiao felt that it was roughly enough.
To rebuild the area, the Brotherhood Alliance helped Ye Xiao recruit workers, and Ye Xiao paid the money. The entire City of Chaos was at war, but this area, behind the back of the Brotherhood Alliance, was in safe construction… That was quite a miracle.
After the construction work started; Qiu Luo, the Dark Evil Spirit, and Bai Long were in charge of supervising the construction in the area. Ye Xiao and Bu Xiangfeng were standing on the highest fork of the tallest tree. They were having a conversation.
”The city suddenly fell into chaos. What is in your mind? Are you still thinking about a peaceful life in the world?” Bu Xiangfeng said with a smile.”
”Xiangfeng, please. When you talk to me, call me Master. Shouldn't you at least show some respect to your boss? I am giving you money after all. That is a basic rule.” Ye Xiao rolled his eyes up.
”Fine. I can call you Master as you want, but do not call me Xiangfeng ever again. You are not that close to me. Now, tell me, what is your plan? As your guard, I need to know what to do next!” Bu Xiangfeng looked at Ye Xiao, who seemed to be a useless young man.
”Okay, then I will call you Old Bu.” Ye Xiao said. He called him Bu Xiangfeng, Xiangfeng, and Old Bu from time to time. Now Bu Xiangfeng made the choice for him.
After signing the contract, Bu Xiangfeng spent quite some time to calm down himself. As he truly realized what had happened, he finally figured out that he was tricked! Ye Xiao had tricked him!
'Why would I be fooled by this young man?'
Therefore, in those few days, he was mad at Ye Xiao. He would seize every opportunity to satirize Ye Xiao. Ye Xiao seemed to be an honest man, but he always told lies when he talked. It was not easy to hide the lie in the truth as he did!
Ye Xiao humphed and blandly said, ”I will make my move when I get a good opportunity.”
”Opportunity? I know that the situation seems to be clear, but I don't think anybody could get an opportunity!” Bu Xiangfeng raised up his eyebrows and said, ”This city has become a target to all the forces. It is quite unique as a city in the Limitless Ocean… You will have to compete against the super powerful forces that have lived for thousands, tens of thousands, even hundreds of thousands of years… Do you really think you would still have an opportunity?”
Ye Xiao squinted at him and said, ”It is not your position to call. I will get the opportunity and seize it. You don't have to believe me, but you can stay and watch my glory arrive!”
Bu Xiangfeng shook his head and said, ”Stop being a windbag! You can't get me with your beautiful talks anymore. You can fool me once, but you actually dream about having me as your guard for my entire life! Cut it off! Be realistic!”
Ye Xiao smiled and raised up one finger. ”Old Bu, just watch me. I will do it… You will beg to stay in the Monarch's Hall!”
Bu Xiangfeng laughed and said, ”Good! I will wait! I will beg you… I will beg for a position to serve you! Really? Will I hold your foot and cry for the position? Hah hah hah…”
Bu Xiangfeng laughed so loudly as if he just heard about the most ridiculous joke in the world.
Ye Xiao was calm and didn't feel angry.
This conversation was such a prediction that would eventually be verified someday…
