"You can go now."
"You can go too."
"At least you know what's good for you. You can go now."
Ye Zichen sat on Zheng Anbang's back in the former Liu Family's territory, a dark gold-grade sword stabbed into the ground by his feet.
In front of him …..
Countless clansmen and elders of various clans, who were as silent as cicadas in winter, invited many people who had come to redeem their freedom through the Summoning of Friends Magic.
What?!
Didn't they have money?
Of course not!
Who were they?
Captives!
Everything a captive had naturally belonged to Ye Zichen. Di Zhou had plucked them clean, leaving them with nothing but a pair of shorts. Of course, the female friends can still leave their clothes intact, moreover their body search is also done by Yao Hua.
Less than two hours later.
The five clans had all been redeemed. The only ones left were the heads of the four clans, as well as the unlucky Feng Family elder who'd already died.
"What do you think …."
"You've pretty much thought it through, right?"
Ye Zichen twisted his neck and stood up from Zheng Anbang's lap, then grabbed the sword and kicked up some dirt.
Zheng Anbang looked tentatively at Ye Zichen ….
After confirming that Ye Zichen could stand up, he silently stood up and stood to the side.
When he'd arrived.
He'd been extremely domineering.
Now, he didn't even dare breathe too loudly.
The people standing in front of Ye Zichen all looked much older than him, yet they all stood before him like obedient children, their heads lowered.
"Senior."
"Hm?"
Ye Zichen narrowed his eyes. The one who'd spoken was the head of the Wei Family, Wei Yuan.
Seventh Star Level.
Standing beside him were two clan elders, as well as the white-haired former head of the ninth Star Level Family.
Just one look.
Everyone, including the ninth-level Star Body Clan leader, swallowed involuntarily.
They knew very well that this senior wasn't easy to talk to.
In just an hour ….
Quite a few people had died.
They'd all wanted to sneak away. Ye Zichen naturally wouldn't let them off the hook.
He'd let them escape.
What could he do about the others?
"Senior, please don't be angry," Wei Yuan hurriedly explained. In truth, he hadn't said much. All he'd done was respectfully call Ye Zichen "senior."
"If you have something to say, say it."
Ye Zichen scratched his face and looked at the hole Di Zhou dug.
Such a gaze instantly made everyone in front of him feel as if they had fallen into an ice cave. Their bodies couldn't help but tremble.
"Senior, we want to say …"
"Huh?!"
"Our Wei family has no objections."
When he saw Ye Zichen's unfriendly expression, Wei Yuan instantly corrected himself.
Originally, he wanted to see if they could negotiate. Ye Zichen's request was rather harsh, but when they saw Ye Zichen's expression, they didn't dare to bargain.
Two million Universe Dollars as tribute every year.
The clan had to pay 20% of the profits from the mining and herb gardens to the Liu family.
All the projects within the family were handed over to the Liu family for review.
Under such conditions, they could no longer be considered as vassals. In fact, they were not much different from slaves. Fortunately, they were still free on the surface.
Only the upper echelons of the family knew how sad they were.
"Very good."
Ye Zichen nodded in satisfaction at Wei Yuan. In truth, Yao Hua was the one who'd suggested the amount of tributes to be paid.
Ye Zichen didn't think too much about it …
Let's just do as she thinks.
"You can leave now."
"Yes, yes, yes."
"Don't even think about resisting. If you don't behave, then I'll wipe out your entire family. Got it?"
"Got it."
"You're actually losing out on following you."
Suddenly, Ye Zichen squinted his eyes and smiled at them.
The others smiled as well. No matter how unwilling they were, they didn't dare show it.
Not losing out?!
In the future, they'd have to split their income from household chores and pay tribute. Wasn't that a loss?
"What you have now is this town."
"In the future …."
"If you follow me, this entire area will be yours. Do you understand?"
With that, the expressions of the many family heads in front of them changed drastically.
Even Yao Hua and the others widened their eyes.
What Ye Zichen meant just now ….
Was he going to attack the other towns?!
"Senior, you mean …."
"Don't ask?! Just remember to follow me. I definitely won't let you lose out, "Ye Zichen squinted his eyes and smiled. Ye Zichen squinted his eyes and smiled. "Be my subordinates sincerely. I will never let my own people suffer."
"Understood!"
Wei Yuan's eyes flashed with joy.
If they really could expand into other towns, this was a completely acceptable price.
Not to mention losing out, they'd make a killing!
"Senior, from now on, the Wei Family will follow your lead. We'll do whatever you want us to do, "said Wei Yuan seriously.
The way he saw it ….
Ye Zichen absolutely had that kind of strength.
The Liu Family's position in Ye Zichen's hands was unshakable, but the other families were different.
The Wei Family pledged their loyalty in advance.
Once they conquered the other towns in the future, Ye Zichen might even give the Wei Family some more resources for their sake.
"Not bad. Let's go."
Ye Zichen naturally saw through Wei Yuan's intentions. He didn't dislike this sort of loyalty.
They nodded and bowed as they left.
Ye Zichen looked at the other family heads.
"Do you have any problems?"
"No!"
"Go on then."
He waved his hand, and they hurried away as if they'd been pardoned.
As he watched them leave, Ye Zichen cracked his neck and looked at Di Jie.
"What do you think?"
"Boss, I, Di Jie, am determined to follow you," Di Jie was beyond excited. He was the one who collected the ransom money just now. In just a bit more than an hour, he'd collected nearly twenty million galactic dollars.
From the looks of it …
Compared to Ye Zichen, the protection fees he collected from the brats in town paled in comparison.
Everything he did before was child's play!
"That's more like it."
Ye Zichen patted Di Jie's shoulder and squinted his eyes.
"I'll give all of this money to you."
"Really? Boss, I love you! "
Di Jie threw down the shovel and wanted to kiss Ye Zichen, but was pushed away mercilessly by Ye Zichen.
He wasn't interested in men at all.
Ye Zichen looked towards Yao Hua.
Yao Hua and co. felt a bit nervous when they felt Ye Zichen's gaze. At the start, they didn't know …
That uncle was actually Ye Zichen himself.
"Can you give me the money you promised me?"
Ye Zichen reached out his hand with a smile. Yao Hua quickly handed the money over without any hesitation.
Di Jie subconsciously looked up when he smelled the money.
His eyes immediately lit up when he saw the large sum of money.
Fortunately, he didn't think too much about it. He was someone who knew how to be satisfied. Boss had already given him so much, if he wanted to get more from Boss, then he would be too greedy.
What's more …
He firmly believed that Boss would definitely give him more in the future.
"Sincere."
Ye Zichen nodded with a smile, then put the money away.
At that moment, Yao Hua suddenly knelt on the ground and bit her lips.
"The Liu family is willing to serve the future lord!"
