Chapter 683: City of the Dead
Shen Lingyue thought for a while and said: "There is one more thing, that is, the Ouyang family, now the Ouyang family is ready to move to Los Angeles, I think the ancestors will help them when the time comes, so that they can stabilize their foothold in Los Angeles as soon as possible, after all, the Ouyang family was one of the four major families before, and its power is all over the entire Asahi Empire, if the Ouyang family helps us secretly establish a hidden force all over the country, then we will have a great chance of success in the future." ”
Gu Lao Zu said: "Girl, do you think the Ouyang family will help us? We have just kicked them out of the ranks of the four major families, and at the same time caused them to lose their general property. ”
Shen Lingyue said with a smile: "This ancestor can rest assured, now Ouyang Dashao is the patriarch of the Ouyang family, with my relationship with Ouyang Dashao, plus Ouyang Dashao is not stupid, he will naturally help us." ”
Gu Laozu said: "Girl, you think too simply, the Ouyang family can become one of the four major families, its background is by no means simple, and a big family like this, there are many factions, and the struggle for power is very fierce and cruel, although Ouyang Dashao is talented, it is the hope of the Ouyang family in the future, but after all, it is still young now, for the sake of power, the other factions of the Ouyang family are estimated to have begun to want to kill Ouyang Dashao now, so as to reduce their resistance to control the Ouyang family." ”
Shen Lingyue said: "That's why I asked them to move to Los Angeles, with your ancestor to help clear the Ouyang family, who would dare to make a mistake?"
Gu Laozu was speechless and said, "Girl, you shouldn't have arranged all this before attacking the Ouyang family, right?"
Shen Lingyue looked at Gu Laozu and smiled without answering.
What else is there not to understand about this? Gu Lao Zu exclaimed: "You are really a scheming little girl, if I were His Majesty Xuanyuan, after suffering a loss, I would never go against you again, because you are a demon." ”
Shen Lingyue smiled and said, "Ancestor, is this praising me?"
Gu Laozu glanced at her, "Naturally, it's a compliment to you, otherwise what?"
Here, Shen Lingyue had just arranged everything, and suddenly a light gate appeared, and Dean Pi walked out of the light gate.
Shen Lingyue hurriedly asked, "Dean, how are things going?"
Dean Pi smiled and said: "Do you have the ability to predict the future?" After the old man went to the palace to see His Majesty, after you refused to participate in the competition with the second prince of the Lanyue Empire, His Majesty was furious on the spot, and sent a message, saying that you are also a citizen of the Asahi Empire, and since you are a child of the Asahi Empire, you should represent the Asahi Empire to compete with the second prince. ”
Shen Lingyue smiled, this had already been expected by her, "Then what did you say, Dean?
Dean Pi glanced at Shen Lingyue, "How is it possible?" At that time, the old man said that since it was said that it was a mutual exchange, then people have the right to refuse to participate, not to mention that His Majesty was thinking about killing Shen Lingyue one moment ago, and asked others to work for you the next moment, Your Majesty's calculation is too good, right?"
After His Majesty heard this, his face was extremely ugly.
After a long silence, His Majesty asked the old man what he could do to let you fight.
The old man directly told His Majesty that before the old man entered the palace, Shen Lingyue explained that it was not impossible for her to participate, so it would depend on the price offered by His Majesty. ”
Shen Lingyue smiled: "Your Majesty is very angry?"
Dean Pi also smiled: "How can Your Majesty not be angry? But he has no choice, it turns out that the competition proposed by the two princes this time is nominally to learn from each other and see the young talents of the Asahi Empire, which is actually related to trade, if we win, then we will take a great advantage in trade, but if we lose, there will be a great loss, and this loss is not a loss for the Asahi Empire at present."
Girl, if you see that His Majesty wants to be angry but can't, you must be very happy. ”
Shen Lingyue said with a smile: "Even if you don't see it, the juniors can imagine it, Dean, hurry up and say, what does Your Majesty plan to do in the end?"
Dean Pi said: "After the last bargain, His Majesty promised that as long as you agree to participate and win, he will give you a piece of land. ”
"Land?" This was a bit of a surprise to Shen Lingyue.
"Yes, land. Dean Pi said with a serious expression, "The old man knows that you have big ambitions, so the old man has won a piece of land for you, and with this land, you can establish your own power." ”
Shen Lingyue asked, "I don't know what kind of land it is?"
Dean Pi said: "Naturally, it will not be a ready-made place of prosperity. ”
This is Xuanyuan Xi who suddenly spoke: "Dean Pi should fight for the place where no one dares to go, right?"
Dean Pi nodded and said, "It's that place." ”
Xuanyuan Xi said: "That's a good choice. ”
Shen Lingyue heard the brainless conversation between the two, and was a little confused: "Dean, what kind of place are you talking about? Is it really that good?"
Dean Pi said: "Whether that place is good or bad, it ultimately depends on whether you can control it." ”
Shen Lingyue was even more confused, but Gu Laozu's face changed slightly: "Old Pi, you can't be that place, right?"
Dean Pi said, "That's exactly the place. ”
Shen Lingyue hurriedly said, "What kind of place are you talking about, can you explain it to me first?"
Xuanyuan Xi said: "That place is not very far from Los Angeles, it is called Hades City, also known as the City of Death. It is a three-way zone, which can also be said to be a place beyond the control of the royal power, and it is inhabited by exiles and thugs, and most of the people in it are very strong. If you can control that place, it will be a great help in the future, but it is not easy to control. ”
Shen Lingyue lowered her head and thought about it, she had also heard of the City of Death, it was a city abandoned by the Empire, but all the people who committed the most heinous crimes and those who took refuge, once they fled into the City of Death, even the four major families did not dare to go in and arrest them easily, because the people there did not give any family face at all.
If you can really control this city and the people in it, it will indeed be a force to be reckoned with.
Moreover, it is easy to defend and difficult to attack, and even if it fails in the future, it can be used as a habitat for the time being.
Although it was difficult to control that place, Shen Lingyue still decided to give it a try, she didn't believe it, everyone has weaknesses, as long as she grasps the weaknesses of people there, she will definitely be able to make them surrender at her feet.
Dean Pi and the others saw Shen Lingyue bowing her head and being silent, knowing that she must be thinking about gains and losses now, so they all quietly waited for Shen Lingyue's decision.
