"Your Uncle Qian asked you to come this time to give you a big gift." Qian Youren smiled. His eyes were so thin that his eyeballs couldn't be seen.
"Uncle Qian is too polite." Ye Kong never refused to take advantage of others. He hurriedly asked, "What is the big gift that Uncle Qian is talking about …"
Looking at Qian Youren's expression, the big gift wasn't money. Thus, Ye Kong could ask directly.
"Then listen to my analysis of the current situation." Qian Youren didn't talk about the big gift. He first talked about the situation of the world. Ye Kong wasn't in a hurry. He held his wine cup and listened.
Qian Youren said, "Nephew, the celestial realm seems peaceful right now. However, there are undercurrents. All the celestial emperors seem to be in harmony on the surface. Behind the surface, there is a lot of fighting. Everyone wants to fight for the position of the celestial master. All the celestial emperors have a certain area of influence and a large amount of resources. If a war breaks out, they can fight for a long time. "
"Nephew, you're at a disadvantage. Although you occupy the Iron Prison Mountain, it's a dead land. Not to mention the lack of resources, there are also so many criminals. Not only do you have to defend against external attacks, you also have to defend against internal chaos. If a war breaks out, the trade will be interrupted. The Iron Prison Mountain won't even be able to take out daily life-saving pills and all kinds of healing treasures. Let me ask you, how will you compete with others? "
Ye Kong had already thought about this. He nodded and said, "Uncle Qian is right. I've already seen this and I'm troubled. Unfortunately, I, Ye Kong, haven't been in the celestial realm for a long time. I don't have a strong foundation. "
Qian Youren smiled. "Nephew, since you've seen this clearly, I'll say it directly." He raised his wine cup and took a sip. "This time, nephew was attacked. Actually, from This Old Man's point of view, it's a very good thing. Nephew, you can use this as a pretext to take over the Zhai family's White Hair Region."
Ye Kong thought to himself, I've already thought about this. If this is your so-called big gift, then it's really not worth mentioning.
Qian Youren could tell that Ye Kong was being irreverent, so he smiled and said, "These are all superficial matters. I'm sure you've already seen through them and even have plans." He smiled faintly, sat up straight and said, "But let me tell you, the White Hair Region is not easy to fight!"
Ye Kong said, "The White Fur Region is surrounded by the White Fur Snow. It's easy to defend and hard to attack. But to be honest, Uncle Qian, I've stayed in the White Fur Region before, and I have some old connections and acquaintances that I can make use of. "
"I'm not talking about that." Qian Youren shook his head. "I'm talking about the big picture. The White Hair Region didn't take up much space in the Celestial World, but if it did, it would affect the entire Celestial World. Peng Batian definitely wouldn't let anyone touch the White Hair Region. He would definitely send people to participate in the battle. You don't have enough power, so you can only ask Chu Xiaoyu for help. But don't forget that Sikong Zhongping is eyeing her like a tiger watching its prey! "
When Ye Kong heard this, his heart froze. This Qian Youren's words made a lot of sense. If he attacked the White Fur Region, he would definitely need the North Thearch's help. But the East Thearch would not be idle. Once the East Thearch made a move, the North Thearch would be overwhelmed and would have to deploy troops to defend. Then, he would not be able to attack the White Fur Region.
"Then I wonder if Uncle Qian has any way to resolve this situation?" This time, Ye Kong was really humbly asking for advice.
Qian Youren smiled faintly, raised his cup, took a sip, and said, "Let's talk about the big gift that Uncle Qian is giving you …" Seeing that Ye Kong was in a daze, he then put down his cup and said, "The Southern Immortal Thearch Residence is willing to help you. We'll lend you 100,000 immortal soldiers, and they'll listen to your commands. They'll help you dominate the White Fur Region and wipe out Di Dongliang!"
"100,000 immortal soldiers!" Ye Kong, who had been worrying about not having enough soldiers, had his eyes lit up. This was really a big gift, a super big gift! If he suddenly had 100,000 immortal soldiers, the West Thearch and East Thearch would definitely be caught off guard and flustered.
What's more, with so many soldiers, he could completely wipe out the Zhai Clan's salt bandits and occupy the White Fur Region!
However, Ye Kong's joy only lasted for a moment. Following that, countless questions surfaced in his heart.
Although his relationship with Fairy Zhining was not bad, all this while, the South Thearch had not been friendly to him. Don't forget, back on the Salt Head Planet, the South Thearch had even sent people to capture Ye Kong and bring him back to the South Star.
This Qian Youren had suddenly turned from a villain to a good person. This really made Ye Kong suspicious. As the saying went, those who were unaccountably solicitous were hiding evil intentions. This Qian Youren was helping him like this, so he probably did not have good intentions.
Ye Kong's expression did not change much. He only raised his eyebrows slightly. Following that, he calmly raised his wine cup and said with a smile, "I wonder what you're after, Uncle Qian?"
This fellow actually did not look surprised when he heard that he wanted to lend him 100,000 immortal soldiers? Qian Youren thought to himself that this Ye Kong was indeed not an ordinary person. His vision was extraordinary, and his mentality was also extraordinary.
Ye Kong's question was actually within Qian Youren's consideration. After all, if someone was helping him like this, anyone would also ask, "What are you after?"
These Immortal Emperors were all extremely shrewd. Everything they did had a motive. If one said that Qian Youren was helping him selflessly, then Ye Kong would definitely not believe it. He would also not dare to use his troops!
"What am I after? Good question. " Qian Youren laughed and said, "Actually, the six of us are all dragons among men. In terms of cultivation, I'm not as good as Big Brother Hong. In terms of craftiness, I'm not as good as Second Brother Sikong. In terms of shamelessness, I'm not as good as Fourth Brother Peng. In terms of forbearance, I'm not as good as Fifth Brother Chu. In terms of killing intent, I'm not as good as Sixth Brother Cao … However, there's one thing that all of them combined cannot compare to me!"
Ye Kong said, "Uncle Qian, you have more money than them."
"More money?" Qian Youren laughed and said, "Having more money is not considered a skill! Being able to earn money is a skill! What This Old Man is best at is doing business! Just like what you said just now, investing in a shop is a small business. Investing in a person is a big business! "
Qian Youren drank a mouthful of wine and said, "Back then, I invested in Hong Dingfang. That's how I got the position of South Emperor today. This business is not bad. It's fun and exciting. I originally thought that I would only invest once in my life. I didn't expect that I would have another chance now! "
Speaking up to this point, his small eyes opened and radiated light. He looked at Ye Kong with a burning gaze and said, "I want to do this kind of business again! Invest in a person again! "
Obviously, Qian Youren meant that he thought highly of Ye Kong and wanted to help Ye Kong so that he could reap benefits in the future. Just like how he helped Hong Dingfang back then.
Hearing Qian Youren's words, Ye Kong's heart calmed down. It seemed that this Qian Youren was really sincere. There was a reason for his change! Since there was a sponsor investing, Ye Kong was still very happy.
"Uncle Qian, thank you for thinking highly of me, Ye Kong." Ye Kong also stood up and cupped his fists, saying, "If Uncle Qian helps me, this matter will be very promising. I believe that Uncle Qian will not suffer a loss in this business. However … I believe that I can't give more than Uncle Hong in return for my investment. I hope Uncle Qian can understand. "
Indeed, Qian Youren had invested in Hong Dingfang and obtained the position of Immortal Emperor. If he were to invest in Ye Kong now, Ye Kong would not be able to give him more.
Qian Youren smiled faintly and said, "This kind of investment is very risky. It could also be a huge gain, a gain that we can't think of at the moment. Therefore, I don't want to ask for too much now. If that day really comes, I believe that Nephew Ye will not treat me badly. Oh, also, after we take over the White Hair Region, all the salt sales and exclusive rights in the White Hair Region will be given to me. "
Qian Youren was indeed a businessman. He said the crux of the matter. Giving him the exclusive rights was equivalent to monopolizing the entire Immortal World's salt industry. His request was not small.
However, Ye Kong thought about it. Compared to Qian Youren sending 100,000 immortal soldiers, this request was not too much. Therefore, he said, "Let's do as Uncle Qian says!"
Qian Youren was instantly overjoyed. "Alright, then let's toast uncle and nephew. Cheers!"
