Swish!
Ye Qinghan smiled coldly and reached out to grab Cui Geng's neck. He smiled and said indifferently, "It's useless even if you know the City Lord and the Supreme God. If I want to crush you to death, I can do it with a wave of my hand. If you want to live, you better work for me from today onwards. If you dare to have any disloyalty, I will place a restriction in your sea of consciousness and let you know what despair is!"
Swish — —
A strand of golden light rushed into Cui Geng's head and entrenched itself in his soul. It was impossible to refine it.
Cui Geng's face was ashen as he looked at Ye Qinghan furiously. Looking at those terrifying eyes, he finally panicked and slowly lowered his head.
"In the future, you will be the second-in-command of the pawnshop and assist Mr. Zuo Lengque in managing the Divine Treasure Pawnshop. If your performance is good, I will spare you. Otherwise, I will let you die without a burial ground." Ye Qinghan snorted coldly.
"Yes … Yes, Great Leader." Cui Geng no longer had any arrogance.
This kind of wretch had to be violent. Otherwise, he wouldn't know the immensity of heaven and earth.
Ye Qinghan smiled coldly and took out the certificate of ownership of the Divine Treasure Pawnshop. He handed it to Zuo Lengque and said calmly, "Take it to the merchant association to change the owner's name. Write my name."
"Yes, Great Leader." Zuo Lengque quickly took it.
Cui Geng followed and didn't dare to go against Ye Qinghan's will. With its certificate, changing the certificate of ownership would be much easier.
With Cui Geng as an example, Ye Qinghan began to forcefully take over the assets and took away 70% of the spiritual stones in the storefront. He only left the most basic spiritual stones for circulation.
Cui Geng had embezzled at least 300,000 Heaven Ranked spiritual stones. Ye Qinghan took away 90% and only left him a few tens of thousands of Heaven Ranked spiritual stones.
After this round of plundering, he obtained a total of 3,000 Mystic Ranked spiritual stones, 250,000 Heaven Ranked spiritual stones, and 400,000 Low Ranked spiritual stones.
Cui Geng's face turned green. 90% of his life savings had been taken away by Ye Qinghan. There was no chance for him to embezzle anything in the future, because he was no longer the manager! He still couldn't betray them. Otherwise, Ye Qinghan could kill him with just a thought.
…
With money to pave the way, the name on the proof of assets was quickly changed. Without any difficulties, Ye Qinghan really took over these assets. Although it was not much, it was enough to sustain Ares College.
Ye Qinghan arranged for all the villagers from Zuoyun Village to enter the shop. On one hand, they could learn how to do business. On the other hand, they could supervise these people. The salary was quite high, so they were naturally willing to stay.
After that, Ye Qinghan gathered all the shop owners of the big shops and some of the smaller shops. He promised them some benefits and asked them to help Frost Demon Stronghold run their shops without worries. He also asked them to share the profits with everyone. This way, all the shop owners would work harder to run their shops.
After everything was settled, Ye Qinghan gave each shopkeeper a Message Talisman so that they could contact him at any time. Then, he left the City Amongst the Clouds alone. He paid ten Earth-tier spirit stones to teleport to Black Sky County, and entered the Frost Demon Stronghold's territory.
As soon as he entered the Blacktiger Mountains, he encountered a few strangers, all of whom had powerful cultivation bases. Judging from their attire, they seemed to be subordinates of the prefectural magistrate of Blackheaven County. They were Titan Gods, and all of them were haughty and arrogant.
"You are the current leader of Black Tiger Mountain, Ye Qinghan?" the leader, a middle-aged man, asked coldly.
"Mm."
Ye Qinghan nodded indifferently and snorted through his nose.
"I don't care who is in control of Black Tiger Mountain, but our County Governor has said that our benefits cannot be reduced. Furthermore, the new faction will have to pay 30% more. This year, we have to hand over 30,000 Heaven Ranked spiritual stones, 300 beauties, and 30 supreme treasures and divine herbs …" the middle-aged man said coldly.
"Blackmail me?" Ye Qinghan sneered to himself. However, he did not look angry on the surface. He pursed his lips, but there was a smile in his eyes. He said indifferently, "No problem. In three days, I will bring all the resources to pay a visit to the County Governor."
"That's right. The County Governor likes people who know what's good for them." The middle-aged man's eyes flashed coldly as he stared at Ye Qinghan. He rubbed his fingers together as if he was asking for benefits.
Ye Qinghan sneered inwardly. He casually took out nearly 300 Heaven Ranked spiritual stones and gave them to the middle-aged man. He pretended to be respectful and said, "This is some money for tea for our brothers. There will be more in the future. I hope that you will help us a little."
"Hahaha, Leader Ye is too polite. Then I will kindly accept it. After all, I am tired from the journey and need some tea to relieve my fatigue." The middle-aged man took the spiritual stones and immediately smiled. He no longer had the cold expression on his face.
"Since you are tired, why don't you enter the stronghold to rest? I will serve you good tea and treat you to a feast." Ye Qinghan's brows twitched as he thought of a plan. He extended his hand and led the four Giant Gods up the mountain.
Ye Qinghan took out a large amount of spiritual wine from the Great Wastelands Monument. These were all of the best quality. Those who loved wine would definitely like it. This was especially true for these Giant Gods. How could they not have wine when they were seeking pleasure?
Ye Qinghan got all four of them drunk. As he drank, he inquired about the number of experts in Black Sky County and their deployment. He also asked about the County Governor's current cultivation level and where he was, as well as the relationship between the County Governor and the City Lord. Indeed, hard work paid off. After drinking to his heart's content, the leader of the group began to grumble.
"Motherf * cker, only our County Governor doesn't know how to do things. He actually offended the Third Young Master of the City Lord's Residence and caused us brothers to have to look at him when we enter the city. Now, the County Governor is thinking of how to curry favor with the Third Young Master." The leader was a little angry. It seemed that the County Governor had prevented him from entering the city to enjoy life.
Ye Qinghan laughed. However, he had a plan in his mind. Since the County Governor and the City Lord's Third Young Master had a conflict, then he would get rid of the County Governor and replace him. He would also offer some benefits to the Third Young Master. Presumably, the City Lord's Residence would not make things difficult for him.
"That's right. The County Governor is too stingy. He doesn't treat us as humans all day long. He orders us to exchange for things. If it wasn't for a tactful person like Chief Ye, we wouldn't even have the resources to cultivate, let alone the money to drink a cup of tea in the city." Another drunk leader grumbled.
Ye Qinghan took the opportunity to ask, "Oh? It seems that the County Governor doesn't treat you well. You don't seem to like him very much. "
"It's not just us who don't like him! Even the Great Commanders in the county don't like him. If he wasn't so strong, who would be willing to stay here and be ordered around by him? "The leader of the group said disdainfully.
Ye Qinghan was even more relieved now. He decided to assassinate the County Governor and secretly control the two Great Commanders of the Black Sky Guards in Black Sky County. Perhaps controlling Black Sky County wouldn't be a difficult task.
"Everyone has finished drinking. Do you feel weak in your limbs and want to rest?" Ye Qinghan's expression changed as he asked with an evil smile.
"What do you mean …"
Plop.
The four of them had a change in expression. They struggled to stand up, but before they could, they fell to the ground. They didn't have any strength left in their bodies. Their spiritual space was sealed, so there was no way they could control their spiritual power.
Shoo. Shoo. Shoo.
Ye Qinghan flicked his finger and placed a restriction on the four of them. He smiled and said, "I like smart people. I also like people who are tactful. The four of you have pretty good cultivation. Follow me and Black Sky County will be under your control."
The four of them had a drastic change in expression. They looked at Ye Qinghan with panic in their eyes.
"What do you want us to do?" The leader of the group asked in shock.
"Ask the two Great Commanders of the Black Sky Guards to come out. But don't alert the County Governor. Don't worry, I won't kill them. I will only control them. My final goal is naturally to eliminate the County Governor and replace him." Ye Qinghan said calmly.
