At night.

After dinner, Li Yun sat quietly in the living room, closing his eyes and contemplating.

Li Yunhan had already gone upstairs at this time, and she didn't know what stimulation she was in, it seemed that after graduation, she began to practice more attentively.

Time passed slowly.

Li Yun suddenly opened his eyes, stood up and walked towards the entrance, and under the induction of the wild ripples, he finally saw the person waiting.

Before the knock sounded, the door opened first, Li Yun raised his eyes and saw that outside the door, two people in black robes who couldn't see their faces clearly were on the spot.

"Come in. ”

Li Yun was not surprised by their dress, and after saying a word, he turned around and walked into the living room.

"Good. ”

"Brother Li, excuse me. ”

With two respectful responses, a man and a woman, the door closed behind them, and the two walked in.

When they sat down on the opposite side of the living room, the two lifted their black robes and revealed their true faces, but they were Zhang Li and Liu Yiyi, who had not been in touch for a while, and the two looked at Li Yun excitedly, as if they had a lot to say.

Liu Yiyi spoke first and bowed his hand to Li Yun: "Congratulations to Your Excellency for winning the first place in the graduation examination in Pingxi City, winning glory for the school and Jinhu Town!"

"You got it?"

Li Yun glanced at them, a little surprised.

"Brother Li, your news has spread throughout the town in the afternoon!"

Zhang Zhang smiled and said, "When we came over, there were banners hanging on the school gate. ”

“......”

Li Yun shook his head and said, "I didn't call you over because of this. ”

After subduing the Jewel Black Hawk, he was equivalent to having a messenger of his own, and immediately let it fly out of the school, contacted Zhang Zhang and the others, and told them to come over as unobtrusive as possible at night.

Of course, even if it doesn't attract attention, the reason why the two of them can enter the school is because Li Yun and the doorman greeted him in advance, after all, with his current status, no teacher and staff in the entire middle school dare not give him face.

Hearing Li Yun's words, the two of them also looked solemn, and couldn't help but glance at each other, but it was still Liu Yiyi who said in a deep voice: "Your Excellency, please command." ”

"There's no hurry. ”

Li Yun didn't get down to business immediately, but looked at Liu Yiyi and asked, "How is the mercenary group developing now?"

"Thanks to your prestige. ”

Liu Yiyi immediately smiled and said, "At present, the residence of the mercenary group is the small courtyard of the original Flying Tiger Mercenary Group, and there is a territory and a backer, so the development is very smooth. ”

"Moreover, I believe that after today, the mercenary group will inevitably usher in a blowout again!"

"Oh?"

Li Yun was a little surprised, "It's really going so well? What about the three mercenary groups that I cleaned up before? Don't you want to take revenge?"

"Your Excellency, rest assured, they are now grasshoppers after autumn, and they won't be able to jump for long. ”

Liu Yiyi replied with a smile, but her tone was full of disdain, seeing that Li Yun showed an interested look, she explained, "These three mercenary groups have already done a lot of evil in the town, and they have a bad reputation, and this time they were looted by Your Excellency-cough, all the treasury was collected, and after the war beast that was most of the combat power was slaughtered again, it was directly beaten back to its original form, and there was no capital to do evil." ”

"Not only that, but many small mercenary groups that have been bullied by them before, and even lone mercenaries, have also geared up to attack them after hearing their news, and they may not need us to do anything at all, and they will also perish and disband. ”

How did it go so well?

Li Yun looked at the smiling woman in front of him, who was nourished by power and radiant, and thought about it in his heart, but he didn't continue to delve into this topic.

"It's good if it's going well. ”

He changed the topic and asked, "Do you have a plan in mind for the future of the mercenary group, and what kind of business are you mainly engaged in?"

"In the early stage, it must still be in the beast material. ”

Liu Yiyi explained seriously, "When there are more people in the group and cultivate a tacit understanding, we will slowly transform to the capture of live beasts, whether it is selling them to the mercenary guild or the beast taming field, it will be extremely profitable." ”

"And when the guild accumulates more funds and can take greater risks, we will be like those big mercenary groups in the city, stretching out our tentacles to all walks of life, starting with the dart masters, striving to establish contact with those big families, and then buying some shops, mutually beneficial-"

"Alright. ”

Seeing that Liu Yiyi was getting more and more excited, Li Yun interrupted her words and asked directly: "You directly said that if the mercenary group develops to the third step, how long will it take?"

Liu Yiyi froze when she heard this, glanced at Li Yun worriedly, and then said, "If everything goes well, it can be done in five to seven years at the earliest." ”

"What if it doesn't go well?"

Li Yun immediately asked.

"It depends on how high you can reach in the future. ”

Liu Yiyi simply said bluntly, looking straight at him.

Li Yun looked at her quietly, and after a while, he said, "In other words, for at least five years, I won't get half of the benefits?"

On the side, Zhang Li seemed to be a little angry, after all, Li Yun didn't need to pay anything in the past five years, he just borrowed his name, and if he hadn't swept away all the spirit core funds, he didn't leave a single gold coin......

When he saw that Liu Yiyi was silent, he seemed to be a little embarrassed, and he felt a pain in his heart, so he couldn't help but say: "Brother Li, we also want to develop quickly, but the funds in the group can't keep up, and recruiting people is also-"

"I'm so sorry!"

However, before Zhang Zhang could finish speaking, Liu Yiyi suddenly interrupted his words and bowed to Li Yun and said, "The main thing is that the recruitment of personnel in the early stage is a little slower, I am pursuing the principle of preferring shortage to abundance, and there are many lone wanderers who are still waiting, but please rest assured, after today, the mercenary group will inevitably usher in rapid development!"

"Yiyi. ”

Zhang Zhang looked at her in astonishment, but saw that Liu Yiyi didn't look at herself at all, his eyes turned, and he saw Li Yun's playful gaze falling on him, his face suddenly turned red, he figured out some of these joints, and stopped talking.

Li Yun looked at the tension between the two of them, shook his head in his heart, knowing that he had almost been tamed by Liu Yiyi, and it was completely ruined, so he stopped paying attention and looked at the real person of the mercenary group.

"You said before that the war beast business is very profitable?"

Li Yun asked.

"Yes. ”

Liu Yiyi nodded, looking at him with some hesitation, still not knowing Li Yun's plans.

"How much money does it take, how long does it take to earn a million gold coins?"

Li Yun asked again.

In fact, if the spirit on his body is calculated, he is only about 700,000 gold coins away from his sister's tuition, and he doesn't want to wait until he goes to the city to earn this money, after all, he is not familiar with life at that time, so it is better to find a way to get it together while he is still in the town.

"A million gold coins?!"

Liu Yiyi let out a low breath and stared at him with wide eyes.

"Why, is it hard?"

Li Yun said strangely, "If I catch a first-order ninth-order fierce beast and then tame it into a war beast and sell it, how much money can I have?"

Liu Yiyi looked at him even more incredulously, and only reacted after a while, and said helplessly: "Your Excellency, let's not talk about taming a fierce beast into a war beast, it must be a special condensation period martial artist to do it, not just a simple force can do it, just a first-order ninth-level war beast-"

She shook her head, "It's hard to measure its value. ”

"What do you mean?"

Li Yun frowned at her.

Liu Yiyi saw that Li Yun was unfamiliar with this aspect, thought about it, and said, "I'd better tell Your Excellency about the market situation of war beasts first." ”

"Ordinary first-order and third-order war beasts, just like the common green-maned grass lizards outside, the price is generally stable at five thousand gold coins, and further up, the price of first-order and fourth-order war beasts is between six and eight thousand gold coins depending on their role. ”

"As for the first-order and fifth-level war beasts, because this level has surpassed most of the mercenaries, coupled with the strong physique of the war beasts, it is an important combat power that cannot be underestimated, so the price is also extremely high, according to the strength of the combat power, at least 10,000 gold coins, and the highest can even reach 20,000 or 30,000 gold coins!"

Speaking of this, Liu Yiyi swallowed her saliva before continuing: "And the first-order sixth-level war beast, this is actually the top-level war beast among the mercenaries, and the price is-"

"Wait, the top war beast?"

Li Yun interrupted her at this time and said strangely, "Why is it the sixth level of the first order?"

Liu Yiyi smiled bitterly and asked, "Have you ever seen any mercenary with a first-order sixth-level or higher war beast?"

Li Yun thought about it carefully, and really never encountered it in his memory, but the mercenaries he had seen were not highly cultivated, so he didn't think about it...... Wait, isn't your cultivation high?

His eyes suddenly appeared, and Li Yun looked at Liu Yiyi: "I almost understand, that means that even if you sell a first-order sixth-level war beast, there is no market, let alone value?"

"That's pretty much it. ”

Liu Yiyi nodded, and added, "It's not completely out of demand, but it's really difficult to form a market demand, because martial artists, especially mercenaries like us, once they break through to the sixth layer of body refining, they can do their best to try to refine and refine qi and advance to the condensation stage." ”

"If the promotion is successful, then naturally there is no longer a need for a first-order war beast, and if it fails, then for most mercenaries, it may stop at the sixth level of body refining in this life, and it is impossible to break through again......"

Li Yun said curiously: "If you refine the sixth layer, you can still find a higher-level war beast, right?"

Although it can't be like the celestials, it can be several levels different from the war beast and won't be devoured, but if it's only a small class, it's still okay.

"Some mercenaries at the fifth level of body refining will indeed choose first-order and sixth-level war beasts, but that is because they are confident that they can continue to break through. ”

Liu Yiyi said, shaking her head again, "But for those martial artists who may stop refining the sixth layer for the rest of their lives, if they find a war beast whose cultivation is too much beyond themselves, once it takes a long time, there is also a great possibility of backlash." ”

Li Yun was surprised, thinking that he still wanted to domesticate a few first-order ninth-order fierce beasts to make a big vote, he immediately laughed, gave up this plan, and asked instead: "What is the price of that first-order sixth-order war beast?"

"At least 40,000 gold coins!"

Liu Yiyi seemed to have finally determined something from Li Yun's attitude, excitement flashed in her eyes, and she forcibly suppressed her excitement, and said quickly, "If it is that kind of war beast with extremely high combat power, it can even sell sixty or seventy thousand gold coins!"

"So little?"

Li Yun frowned when he heard the number.

"Your Excellency. ”

Liu Yiyi immediately reminded, "Seventy thousand gold coins is almost half of the net worth of the original Flying Tiger Mercenary Group!"

The net worth here is, of course, all assets, including land.

Li Yun was stunned when he heard this, and then suddenly remembered that he seemed to have scavenged thirty first-order spirit cores in the Flying Tiger Mercenary Group, plus the gold coins and golden tickets in that place, which might add up to less than 100,000 gold coins, and immediately shook his head again and stopped talking.

From this point of view, maybe the war beasts he killed at that time were the biggest assets of the mercenary group, and each one should be worth no less than 20,000 gold coins, but because of the spirit cores worth 2,000 gold coins, they were all beaten into pulp by him......

"Forget it. ”

Li Yun sighed, and finally got down to business, "I remember that the Mercenary Guild has a lot of secret techniques that can conceal aura, change appearance, and even change body shape?"

"Yes, Your Excellency is—"

Liu Yiyi's eyes lit up and said excitedly.

Li Yun didn't play dumb riddles either, and said directly: "Help me exchange some, bring it tomorrow, and ask for the best!"
