Elder Ye said, "As long as he doesn't cause trouble in the country, he can do whatever he wants. Guess, if he really wants to play, where will he make a move first?"
Elder Nie directly said, "The biggest threat to him is probably the remnants of the four clans in the Land of Mercenaries. If they're still alive, they will only take revenge on the country and Xu Cheng. So, I think if Xu Cheng wants to have a good time, he must get rid of this thorn in his side first."
Elder Guo: "Rather than getting rid of them, it's more like recovering them."
Elder Ye shook his head. "Recovering them is impossible. The four clans had so much financial resources back then that they could support the mercenaries they adopted. Not to mention taking back four mercenaries, Xu Cheng would have to spend a lot of money just to keep a foothold in the Land of Mercenaries. Don't forget that the Land of Mercenaries is a battlefield that countries all over the world have their eyes on. Other than nuclear weapons, that area is basically a place where every country uses weapons to challenge each other. Every mercenary group has the support of a country, or else the King of Mercenaries wouldn't have stayed in that chaotic area for so many years. So, I don't think he can take over the entire Land of Mercenaries. Even if Xu Cheng took over his mother's money, it would still be very difficult for him to get into the Land of Mercenaries. "
Elder Zhou nodded. "Also, only two of his old comrades are willing to follow him. I've asked around about them, and they're the weakest in the Dragon Division. Going to the Land of Mercenaries wouldn't be of much help to that brat."
Elder Xing: "Even if they could help him, who doesn't want to make a living in that area? If you don't have money, who would want to follow you? This is a practical problem. I've seen Xu Cheng, and his strength is great, but I don't dare to compliment his ability to make money in the financial industry. "
At this moment, Elder Ye said, "Did you guys forget about his wife? This time, she went to the M Nation to study finance. She's a smart woman, and she took the initiative to lay out a plan for Xu Cheng. You can't trust others to support a financial empire, so this woman went to learn it herself. Looks like she's ready to be the mistress of the family business in the future. "
Elder Guo nodded. "Before, I only thought she was a pretty face, but now, it seems like she's also very smart. I knew it, how could a woman who went through that with Xu Cheng look so simple? "
Elder Xing laughed and said, "Just think about it, what kind of place is the entertainment industry? That place was a dye vat that could instantly turn a swan black, but this woman, Lin Chuxue, was able to calmly fight for fame all these years without being contaminated. This in itself was a kind of ability! This woman indeed has her own way of integrating into any unfamiliar place. Just like how she was able to come to Huaxia with Xu Cheng without hesitation, she was able to quickly adapt and get along well. "
The other elders nodded.
But at this time, Elder Guo still shook his head and said, "If this kid wants to be a real player, he must first establish a country! It wasn't easy in this era! If it's just buying an island to establish a dukedom, that's easy, but you can't become a player. "
Elder Ye said, "I understand my grandnephew. Have you never thought that he would unify the Land of Mercenaries?"
The other four elders said in unison, "That's impossible!"
Elder Guo said, "That area has been at war for more than a decade, and the King of Mercenaries, Kutcher, appeared. However, he was only able to create the most powerful mercenary group in the world, but he couldn't unify that area. The mercenary group created by the M nation's Blackwater Corporation, the mercenary group created by the warring nations, the mercenary group created by the European coalition, and the reactionary forces of the current regime. The reason why the King of Mercenaries is the King of Mercenaries is that he was able to create the most powerful mercenary group among those big countries. He balanced that area, but he couldn't unify it. If he wanted to do that, the M nation would be the first to kill him at all costs, including us! Because that area can't fall into the hands of any country, it must always be a place of evil and depraved. Even the M nation doesn't dare to rule it and offend the entire world! So, in my eyes, if Xu Cheng really wants to make that area his first stronghold, then he will lose! He has no chance of winning. "
Elder Ye nodded. "It's fine if he loses, he can just come back to China with his tail between his legs. That way, he will be much more stable in the future, and he can just focus on being the Dragon King. But, I still think everything is possible."
The four elders looked at Elder Ye and laughed. "Brother Ye, you haven't known him for long, how can you be so confident?"
Elder Ye shook his head. "It's not that I'm confident in him, I just think that Brother Zhang Chenfeng has good foresight. Just when he felt like he was about to give up on the plan, Xu Cheng pulled it off in one go. Thinking back, if Xu Cheng was replaced by any other master with the same strength as him, they might not have been able to pull it off so perfectly. Brother Zhang Chenfeng was even stronger than Xu Cheng before he died. If he was asked to kill his way over, he wouldn't even have the confidence to do it, but Xu Cheng did it. We have to admit that this kid has a meticulous plan. "
Speaking up to this point, Elder Ye said thoughtfully, "About the Wei Nation incident, have you thought about how he did it so seamlessly? In fact, we neglected a problem from the very beginning. It's not what he did, but how he did it! "
Elder Guo: "If his first goal is really to deal with the remaining mercenaries of the four clans, then let's make a bet. First, let's bet on whether he can wipe out or take over the four mercenary groups. Then, let's bet on how long he can sustain these mercenaries. Then, let's bet on whether or not he has the confidence to take down the King of Mercenaries and replace him."
"A bottle of 50 years old wine. I bet he can do it first," Elder Ye immediately said.
Elder Guo stared at him and laughed. "I was waiting for you to say that."
Elder Zhou: "Brother Ye, he drank all the wine, and he knows you hid a lot more, so he's setting a trap for you."
Elder Ye also laughed and said, "I know he doesn't have a lot of wine, and it's torturous to only drink one sip a day. So, when I win an entire bottle of wine from him, I feel great just looking at his miserable face."
At home, Xu Cheng sneezed.
He rubbed his nose and said in confusion, "Who's talking behind my back?"
Then, he looked at Ye Xiu, who was eating at the dining table. The latter coughed and said, "Why are you looking at me like that?"
Xu Cheng: "Why are you so nervous?"
Ye Xiu: "You call this nervous? I clearly didn't cover myself with the quilt last night and caught a cold. "
Speaking up to here, he looked at Lin Chuxue with a hint of bitterness. Seeing the other party's sharp gaze, Ye Xiu quickly sucked up to her. "Sister-in-law, your cooking is really delicious, it's even better than some chefs in some countries. Come, give me another bowl. Just looking at these dishes makes my appetite grow."
Lin Chuxue glanced at Ye Xiu and then said to Lin Dong, "Little Dong, add another quilt tonight."
Ye Xiu: "Give me two bowls!"
