Chapter 20: Far Wind City
"Young master, we are just such people, is it really good?" Looking at the group of people who were about to set off, Ye Qing said that the future was worrying. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info
Although there was a lot of reluctance in his heart, since he had already decided the path he should take, Ye Zhi would not hesitate to move forward with his mother-in-law, and he prepared everything early the next morning.
In fact, Ye Zhi didn't have many things to prepare, the most important thing was only one thing, that is, money, everything is easy to say when you have money in hand, what you eat, drink and use can be replenished halfway.
Money, before leaving, Ye Zhi extorted 200,000 gold coins from Francis IX as the cost of treatment in the early stage.
In fact, what Ye Zhi wanted to extort was a million gold coins, and as soon as Ye Zhi expressed this idea, Francis IX wanted to hack this hateful boy to death.
One million gold coins, although he is the emperor of the empire, although the treasury has a lot of money, but it is not his own private money, he can't use it indiscriminately.
The fact that the little dragon girl came to the human kingdom for treatment is confidential, and it must not be spread randomly, the little dragon girl is the daughter of the dragon emperor, and her importance is self-evident. Therefore, in order to keep secrets, the Francis the Great could not use the money of the state treasury, because there was no reason to use his own private money. And as a wise emperor, his own private money is really not much, in addition to various expenses, the money he has accumulated is only millions of gold coins, and Ye Zhi is one million gold coins as soon as he opens his mouth, isn't this a ruthless dig of a piece of his meat?
Ye Zhi blocked Francis IX back with only one sentence, isn't the cost of Xiaolongnu's treatment worth the price?
Value, of course it's worth it, let alone a million, even if it's 10 million, 100 million is fine. During the period when the little dragon girl came to the Osiris Empire, the value of the potions spent on her was already more than several million, but it was just ...... The money spent on the Potions Masters Guild was not his own.
In the end, after a series of bargaining, in the end, Ye Zhi only extorted 200,000 gold coins and five precious medicinal herbs.
Now that the money is in hand, all Ye Zhi needs to prepare is a carriage as a means of transportation and the personnel who will go with him.
The emperor must bring it, since the emperor mutated, it is getting smarter and smarter, and of course it is becoming more and more arrogant, except for Ye Zhi, the emperor doesn't bother to pay attention to other people.
In addition to the emperor, there is only one person Ye Qing that Ye Zhi wants to bring.
Ye Qing is now sixteen years old, and since he was eleven years old, he has been by Ye Zhi's side, obeying Ye Zhi's orders, and taking care of Ye Zhi. Ye Qing's talent is still very good, and now at the age of sixteen, he is already a fourth-order demon powerhouse.
But Ye Qing's strength was still too low, so the old prince arranged for a powerful butler to follow Ye Zhi.
There are only three people in total, one old, one young, one young, plus a cat, such a combination can really mix in the dangerous emerald green space? Ye Qing expressed great doubt, he didn't have any confidence at all, and he didn't know where Ye Zhi's confidence came from.
"Then how many people do you think is appropriate, a whole army, that's enough. Ye Zhi asked rhetorically, which made Ye Qing speechless, after all, Ye Zhi was going to take over a mess now, it seemed that there were too many people to bring, and a whole army was not bad, but this was not realistic at all.
Although Ye Zhi is now a third-class viscount and has his own territory, he does have the qualifications to cultivate private soldiers, but the maximum number of private soldiers he can cultivate is only one hundred and fifty people, and if there are more, it will not work.
Although he has this right, Ye Zhi does not have the ability to build his own private army for the time being, and the army is the most money-burning.
As the saying goes, raising troops for a thousand days and using them for a while, a well-trained army can by no means be built up overnight. I don't know how long the training will take, and during this period of training, you will be responsible for their food, drink, and armor, and the cost of it will be so fast that it is best to describe it as burning money.
Build an army of your own, Ye Zhi had such an idea, but definitely not now. Now he doesn't even have a little income, let alone a stable economy, how many people can he support with the 200,000 gold coins in his hand alone, and how long can he support him.
"Let's go, just follow your young master and me, don't think so much. Ye Zhi took the lead in getting into the carriage, and the old housekeeper followed silently, acting as a dutiful groom for Ye Zhi.
"Eleven, where are we going?" Ye Zhi went to the palace to pick up the little dragon girl first, and the little dragon girl who left the palace was very happy, because she could finally go to places outside the palace.
Although the palace is good, if you stay in it for a long time, you will feel bored, especially the deceitful atmosphere in the palace, which makes the little dragon girl who is simple and kind by nature feel not very comfortable.
"Go to my territory, in my territory, it's much easier to help you see a doctor, by the way, this is for you, come back to me after eating." Ye Zhi took out another bottle of elixir and gave it to Xiaolongnu, and at the end of the sentence, he didn't forget to improve, "If you don't feel anything after eating, remember to tell me, and I'll see your physical condition when the time comes." ”
"Oh, I see. Suddenly, the little dragon girl noticed the existence of the emperor and couldn't help but want to tease it, "What a cute kitten." ”
"Meow~" Although the little dragon girl turned into a human form and concealed her true identity, ordinary people can't detect it, but the emperor, as a mutated magical beast, its natural instincts are clearly told to it. The girl beside her is not human, she is very dangerous, and she must not go near it.
The emperor wanted to escape, but the emperor's strength was too low compared to Xiaolongnu, and he was caught all of a sudden.
"Meow meow~" The emperor shouted with his teeth and claws, desperately asking Ye Zhi for help, otherwise Ye Zhi looked helpless, shrugged and said: "You can accompany the little dragon girl well, settle down on the way, and you can only move freely when you reach the territory." ”
After hearing Ye Zhi say this, the emperor suddenly hung his head, and even his own master didn't help me, he was so pitiful and wronged.
Ye Zhi ignored the emperor's pitiful appearance and said to the housekeeper: "When everyone arrives, then let's go and go to my territory." ”
"Yes, young master. ”
The carriage moved slowly, heading towards the western border of the empire, the Emerald Green.
From the imperial capital to the emerald green land in the west, it also takes more than half a month to travel non-stop. Ye Zhi was not in a hurry, and stopped along the way to appreciate the scenery of the city, the customs and local snacks.
Ye Zhi likes snacks very much, so Ye Zhi will stop in every city and go shopping for a day first. The little dragon girl who was with Ye Zhi also liked this feeling of eating wherever she went, and the little dragon girl had a lot of fun along the way, and her laughter never stopped.
Far Wind City, when Ye Zhi walked to Far Wind City, it was already nearly a month after he set off.
When I arrived in Yuanfeng City, there were only a few days left before the Emerald Greenland, and it was getting late now, so Ye Zhi found a restaurant, ate something first, and rested for the night.
Ye Zhi and a few people had just ordered a table of dishes, and before they could start eating, a group of mercenaries came in bustlingly.
Mercenaries, as long as there are people, there will be rivers and lakes, as long as there are rivers and lakes, there will inevitably be struggles, and mercenaries, people who lick blood on the knife, are also born because of this.
It is not uncommon for mercenaries to haunt places such as restaurants and taverns, but what is strange is that when they came in, their eyes hit Ye Zhi's body for a moment. Although it was only a very brief moment, Ye Zhi still keenly felt that kind of look was called confirmation, what were they confirming.
Himself, or the little dragon girl?
No, it won't be the little dragon girl, their eyes are more on themselves, that is to say, their goal should be themselves.
The goal is yourself, why?
This question just turned in Ye Zhi's mind, and then Ye Zhi said, "Is there another courtyard?"
"Yes, there is only one annex in our restaurant, this noble young master, do you want it?" The owner of the restaurant nodded and said, the annex of the restaurant is like the presidential suite of a five-star hotel, and the cost of staying for one night is at least thousands of gold coins, which is just the price of an ordinary restaurant, like the annex of the Imperial Capital Restaurant, it is not surprising that one or two thousand gold coins a night is not surprising.
"Of course, prepare it for me. ”
"Yes, the little ones will do it immediately. The boss had a joy on his face that could not be concealed, and immediately went to clean the courtyard for Ye Zhi with his subordinates.
"Young Master. The old housekeeper Lao Ma couldn't help but remind Ye Zhi, along the way, Ye Zhi has spent a lot of money, and now he is still so messy, you really don't know how expensive firewood and rice are, according to your squandering like this, the money that the old prince and Princess Shuxian gave you is estimated to have been completely spent before it reaches the territory.
"I know what I'm doing, and I can't be miserable when I'm away. Okay, hurry up and finish eating, and after eating, it's time to get to my territory as soon as possible and take over my territory, hahahaha. Ye Zhi laughed and laughed, listening to this laughter, he felt a little villainous.
Show off, no, Ye Zhi is not showing off, but confirming something. After those mercenaries heard Ye Zhi's words, they paused for a moment in their original actions of drinking and eating vegetables, and then continued to drink and eat vegetables and chat. But their performance, in Ye Zhi's eyes, was really clumsy.
Now it's certain that they're here for themselves, for some reason, but they're aiming for themselves, and that's right.
