Chapter 406 A Business
In early August of Douluo Calendar 2618, the Douluo Continent, which had been peaceful for nearly ten years, once again broke out into flames of war.
Just half a month after Ling Yi arrived in "Tian Dou City".
Ling Yi did not even wait for the summons from Emperor Xue Rong in the palace. He was entrusted by Prince Xue Ye to go to the rear of the Tiandou border army to assist the former Paoze, Count Artimos and others. Contribute to the logistics of the border army.
Of course, this is not free. In exchange, [Aoki Chamber of Commerce] can be responsible for a part of the logistics and procurement of Tiandou Frontier Army, which is about 20%.
Even though it was only 20%, according to the information Ling Yi had, it was only after Xue Ye's painstaking coordination with many parties that he could squeeze out the share.
The forces of the Tiandou Border Army, and even the entire [Tiandou Empire] military, are intricately intertwined and involve many people and families. Every border conflict is a gluttonous feast, waving Knives and forks, mouths waiting to share food, hundreds, thousands!
On the way to Fasnuo Province in [Tian Dou Empire], Ling Yi rode on Texue’s back, recalling the time when he was transferred by the [Shui Mu Principality], and how he interacted with Jiang Yuan and Li Zhi Several people, together with an army of ten thousand people, were sent to the front lines of the battlefields of [Tian Dou Empire] and [Xing Luo Empire], and scenes emerged before their eyes.
I still remember that at that time, Li Zhishu was still angry about some of the scandals committed by the Tiandou border troops.
Who would have thought that now I and others would be standing in the position of eating fish and meat with a knife and fork in hand.
A somewhat sarcastic smile appeared on the corner of Ling Yi's mouth.
It turns out that I am also a monster with a background~
Hate power, envy power, and become power.
At this moment, Ling Yi’s mental journey was quite exciting.
……
A few days later, Fasno Province, more than seventy miles east of "Clo City".
Walking in the familiar camp, before Ling Yi had time to feel anything, he saw several figures hurriedly walking from a distance.
"A Yi——!"*N
The voice came first before anyone arrived. Ling Yi raised his eyes and saw that it was Artimus, Lianlian, and Zhen whom he had not seen for a long time. Long et al.
The steps under his feet quickened, Ling Yi quickly met a few people, and laughed loudly: "Guys, long time no see, how are you?"
As they spoke, the two parties had already met, standing face to face, looking at each other with smiles on their faces.
Of course, Artimus and others were watching Ling Yi, while Ling Yi's eyes were moving back and forth on Artimus and others.
“What a boy——!”
Artimus stepped forward, slapped Ling Yi on the shoulder, laughed and said: “I didn’t expect that he would run away from the frontier army. Then, you actually made such a big splash——!”
I remember when we first met, it was October 2608 in the Douluo Calendar. At that time, Ling Yi was just a 2-year-old. The Great Soul Master Huan was a pawn who was openly and secretly ostracized by the [Shuimu Principality] officials and finally remained in the Tiandou frontier army.
Now ten years have passed, and the Ling Yi in front of him has transformed into the third master craftsman in Douluo Continent, the vice president of the [Blacksmith Association], the vice president of the Tiangong Advanced Soul Master Academy, and the Qingmu Chamber of Commerce. The president and the lord of "Lingyun City" is known as the "Seven Orifices Exquisite" because he is good at dancing and has a network of contacts from all directions.
In addition, according to the latest news, Ling Yi seems to have broken through to the realm of the Five Ring Soul King!
When the twenty-seven-year-old Five-ring Soul King thinks of this, Artimos and others, except Zhenlong, feel jealous.
You know, ten years ago, Artimos was the fifty-eighth level healing soul king. Now ten years later, his strength is the sixty-sixth level soul emperor. If you don’t count the tens of thousands With the first-level soul power increase brought by the sixth soul ring in 2008, he only increased it by seven levels.
But Ling Yi broke through three major realms in a row, reaching almost level 30! ! !
Facing such speed, even the rising star of the frontier army seemed to be overshadowed by Zhen Long.
Zhen Long, thirty-three years old, mutated martial soul "Mirage Dragon Eye", fifty-ninth level control system battle soul master.
Compared with when she was rescued by Ling Yi ten years ago, Zhenlong's soul power has increased by seventeen levels, which is quite fast.
Right now, Zhenlong is only one step away from level sixty. Even if you look at the entire Douluo Continent, he is still a very outstanding genius.
You must know that at the time, Jiang Yuan, as the main general sent by the Shuimu Principality to the front lines of the two empires, was a fifty-level soul king at the age of thirty-four.
Of course, there is actually no comparison between the two.
Jiang Yuan is the genius of [Shuimu Principality], but [Shuimu Principality] is too small. Even Jiang Yuan’s own qualifications are not much lower than Zhenlong, but with [Shuimu Principality]’s Due to his size and resources, it is difficult for Jiang Yuan to progress at a speed that reaches the upper limit of his talent.
With the help of the Tiandou Border Army, Zhenlong can enjoy various training resources and even the teachings of strong men, which are not comparable to Jiang Yuan.
While reviewing the various things they had worked together in the past, and sharing their experiences over the years, the two parties quickly dissipated the sense of unfamiliarity after a long separation, and became more familiar with each other than they were ten years ago.
Although the two parties have rarely met each other over the years, Ling Yi has always maintained contact with these people in the Tiandou border army through letters.
Just like a few years ago, Ling Yi used the name of Artimus to visit the Ninth Prince Xuexing. He had also greeted Artimus in letters beforehand.
Without Altimus’ approval and notification, where would Ling Yi learn about the intimate relationship between him and Xuexing?
Even if he found out by himself, without Altimus’ acquiescence, Ling Yi would come to the door in the name of the other party. Looking back, Xue Xing and Altimus would find out that Ling Yi With Yi's behind-the-scenes calculations, the impression will inevitably deteriorate.
The group of people walked and chatted back to the main tent. After retreating to the left and right, there were only four people left in the tent: Artimus, Lianlian, Zhenlong, and Ling Yi.
“Ahem! Ayi, when you come this time, His Highness the Prince has already greeted you in advance~”
Artimos first looked at Lianlian and Zhenlong. Seeing that both of them had a "you tell me" look, he could only glare at them angrily, then coughed lightly and said to Zhu Lingyi said:
"Now, we would like to ask, what arrangements are you going to make over there? Do the [Aoki Chamber of Commerce] have enough manpower? Do you need our help?"
< br>"If you have any difficulties, don't be polite to us. We are old friends..."
At this point, Artimos' face flashed with a bit of unnatural astonishment. color.
In this regard, Ling Yi's face had no strange color, and it was still the gentle and gentle smile.
"Your Majesty the Earl..."
"Hey!"
Before Ling Yi could say anything, Artimos raised his hand to interrupt and said with some dissatisfaction: "Didn't I tell you before? , why do you still call it that?” “Uh~~” Ling Yi hesitated when he heard the words, then chuckled and shook his head: “It’s my fault, it’s my fault, I taught you a lesson~”
< br>
“That’s right~”
Upon hearing Ling Yi's change of words, Artimus immediately slapped his thigh and said with a smile.
"Okay~"
Lianlian next to him spoke at the right time and said warmly to Ling Yi: "Ayi, go on and tell me what you think, and ignore this damn fat guy."
After saying that, he gave Artimos an angry look.
In response, Artimos gritted his teeth, but thinking about the other party's soul emperor husband and soul saint father, he finally just gritted his teeth.
"Brother, Sister Lianlian, and Brother Zhenlong, please tell me first, from whom did the '20%' that His Highness the Prince told me come from?"
Ling Yi calmly asked the question that made Artimos and the three of them feel uncomfortable at the same time.
About an hour later, the camp fell into silent silence.
Ling Yi frowned slightly and tapped the armrest of the chair under him with his right index finger, silently thinking about something.
The Artimos trio across from them had relaxed expressions on their faces.
The three of them had some friendship with Ling Yi and were promoted as exchange representatives. They have always been mentally burdened.
In the past hour, they had revealed to Ling Yi the intricate network of interests in the border army. Naturally, they felt much more relaxed now. They were just waiting for Ling Yi’s response. As a result, It has little to do with them.
Although Ling Yi is only a healing soul king now, in terms of realm alone, he is still under Altimus, the healing soul king, but who said that the relationship network behind Ling Yi is too strong? Woolen cloth.
Even if we don’t mention the [Blacksmith Association General Assembly] and [Tiangong College] far away in the [Star Luo Empire], just Ling Yi’s own [Aoki Chamber of Commerce] and [Lingyun City], Ming There is also a control-type seven-ring battle soul saint, the 'Jade Phosphorus Snake Emperor' Dugu Bo on the surface.
Not to mention, according to the latest news from spies stationed in "Lingyun City", just last year, two father and son named Chen settled in "Lingyun City".
Although the specific strength of the father and son is not yet known, they should be seven-ring soul saints or above!
Many people can't understand how the mere "Lingyun City" and the mere Ling Yi managed to get a Soul Saint level powerhouse to join their ranks willingly?
In the front there is the ‘Jade Phosphorus Snake Emperor’ Dugu Bo, and in the back there are two father and son named Chen.
It's okay for Dugu Bo to say that after all, he and Ling Yi have been friends for many years when he was still Soul Emperor, and his son Dugu Xin is Ling Yi's little fan. It makes sense to continue to support Ling Yi after breaking through to Soul Saint. .
Why did the father and son at the back choose to settle in "Lingyun City"?
Although it is just settling down and not joining "Lingyun City", what is the difference between this situation and joining?
If possible, ninety-nine percent of the forces in Douluo Continent would be willing to offer extremely generous terms, as long as the Soul Saint father and son came to settle down.
The Soul Saint is, after all, the strong man who has stepped into the upper echelon of the Douluo Continent’s martial soul system.
In this era where Titled Douluo has become a legend and Soul Douluo suddenly appears, Soul Saint is the public face in the mainland.
Just like the brothers Tang Xiao and Tang Hao, it was only after they became Soul Saints that they traveled across the continent together and gradually made their names.
Behind the various forces that can take advantage of the 'hidden rules' in the war between the two empires, there are people from soul kings to soul saints. According to their respective strengths, some will take more and some will take less. .
But this time, Ling Yi suddenly came out and wanted to take 20% of the share. This was cutting off everyone's flesh.
If it weren’t for the Contra Iron Buddha behind Ling Yi, the [Po Clan] behind Yang Shirley, and the [Min Clan] who have ongoing transactions with [Tiangong Academy], [Blacksmith Association General Assembly] Honorary Vice President Tai Tan, the leader of the [Force Clan], has a direct relationship with three of the four single-attribute clans, and the existence of the [Haotian Sect] cannot be ignored. Don't look at the [Aoki Chamber of Commerce] and [Lingyun City] "With Dugu Bo's support, all forces in the Tiandou border army may not let Ling Yi reach the border army alive.
It’s just the Seven-Huan Soul Sage. Who among the Tiandou frontier troops eats the lion’s share and doesn’t have their backs?
The top ones among them even have Contras, but they usually don’t show up at all.
Ever since Qian Daoliu and Tang Chen swept away the older generation of titled Douluo-level beings, the top combat power of the Douluo Continent's soul master world has fallen into a period of inactivity.
Under this situation, almost every Contra is looking forward to whether he can become a new Titled Douluo?
In addition, although [Haotian Sect] Tang Hao's reputation has only begun to become louder in the circles above the Soul Saint level in the past year or two, Tang Xiao's prestige began several years ago. Established.
How was it established?
Hit it with the "Haotian Hammer" in my hand!
No one wants to be a challenge target for the Tang brothers, especially when the possibility of being defeated is high.
Although these two brothers are still just Soul Saints at the moment, and usually only challenge Soul Saints, and will hardly dare to challenge Soul Douluo, everyone knows that in a few years, these two brothers will Breakthrough to the Contra realm.
The Soul Douluo currently on the Douluo Continent have all witnessed with their own eyes the years when Tang Chen hammered the Douluo Continent.
No one wants to be a stepping stone for the two Tang brothers, so they all choose to practice in seclusion, not only to truly pursue breakthroughs, but also to avoid being targeted by the two Tang brothers.
In this case, the force represented by Ling Yi wants to take a big bite in the new confrontation between the two empires. Contra will not come forward unless necessary.
In this way, facing Ling Yi, the city lord of "Lingyun City" with three soul saints behind him, all the forces chose to make contact first.
As for His Highness the Crown Prince, as long as Ling Yi can negotiate well, I think His Highness the Crown Prince will not care about these small details.
Of course, if Ling Yi's negotiation is not good, then they will not do anything. They will just hand over the corresponding share according to the instructions of His Highness the Crown Prince.
Those who stand in high positions will not eat less. Ling Yi’s share must be cut off from those Soul King and Soul Emperor level forces.
In addition, the two empires are at war, and the war is fierce and dangerous. Ling Yi is just a healing soul king with no power to restrain a chicken. Maybe one of them is not careful, and suddenly everyone is gone, and the frontier army is fighting against the sky. It is understandable that all parties are beyond their reach and are powerless.
Thinking about it, His Highness the Crown Prince would definitely not blame them.
As for the three soul saints, Dugu Bo, the 'Jade Phosphorus Snake Emperor', and the father and son of the Chen family who have settled in "Lingyun City", even if they want revenge, they will have to find the [Star Luo Empire] military to imprison them in the Heavenly Dou. What's going on with the friendly troops on the border, right?
With various information flowing in his mind, Ling Yi quickly deduced various possibilities, his brows slowly calmed down, and a faint smile appeared at the corner of his mouth again.
'That's right~'
'If you can't count it here, Xue Ye, you will really let me down, and this game of chess will be too boring——'
Thinking of this, Ling Yi turned to look at Artimos and the others, and asked with a smile: "You three, are you interested in joining me to do a business with millions of soldiers from the border army?"
Good night everyone~
