Ye Qinghan was a little impatient and forcefully changed the topic. The Dragon's Lair kept harping on Renhuang Ye's portrait.
"Everyone, please state your intentions. I'm going into seclusion, so I won't have time to entertain you the next time you come," Ye Qinghan said calmly.
Tai Qingxuan immediately said excitedly, "Manor Lord Ye, on behalf of the Three Clear Divine Nations, I congratulate you on becoming a Manor Lord and a Manor Lord! You're from the Three Clear Divine Nations, so we're willing to grant you the title of King with a different surname. We'll reward you with three god crystal mines, tax free, and a high degree of autonomy. We'll also subsidize your military budget with thirty million mid-grade god crystals every year … "
Dragon Lair and Martial Polishing Chengfeng rolled their eyes. How was this recruiting Ye Qinghan? This was taking Insane Manor back and worshipping it like an ancestor!
Ye Qinghan nodded slightly and pretended to think about it.
Tai Qingxuan's cooperation was flawless. In order to give Dragon Lair and Martial Polishing Chengfeng hope, he added a difficult request at the end, which was to hand over a hostage to a Divine Nation.
Normally, a Manor Lord would hand over a hostage to a Divine Nation. Although it was called a hostage, it was actually just that the hostage couldn't leave the Divine Nation's main city. They had a high degree of freedom, which was even more comfortable than being a Manor Lord's successor. Most importantly, the Divine Nation and Manor Lord would provide them with a large amount of resources! In the end, none of the hostages were successful. They were all hopeless good-for-nothings.
Ye Qinghan decisively rejected Tai Qingxuan and said coldly, "Insane Manor doesn't need anyone to be a hostage. There's no room for negotiation. I want the Insane Manor to stand outside the rules. I do things based on my feelings. If I'm willing to do something, I won't force it. If I'm not willing to do it, no one can order me around. It's the same for the Divine Lords. As for things that have nothing to do with me, it'll depend on the benefits."
When Dragon Lair and Martial Polishing Chengfeng saw Ye Qinghan reject Tai Qingxuan's request, they were immediately interested. However, they also understood Ye Qinghan's bottom line. He didn't just want benefits, he wanted to stand outside the rules!
A Divine Nation would never allow a Manor Head to stand outside of the rules. This had never happened since ancient times. A Manor Head had to be bound by a Divine Nation. Ye Qinghan's request was something that the three Divine Nations could not accept.
"Could it be that the two of you are here for the same reason as the Sanqing Divine Kingdom? Do you want me to send a hostage over?" Ye Qinghan asked calmly.
His tone was calm, but it was overbearing and unquestionable. If anyone dared to mention the hostage, there would be no room for discussion.
"Well … My Emperor didn't make such a request. However, my Divine Kingdom isn't as wealthy as the Sanqing Divine Kingdom. But I can guarantee that if Brother Ye joins my Martial Divine Kingdom, you will be treated well!" Martial Chengfeng said in a low voice.
Ye Qinghan smiled indifferently. In this era, benefits were the most important. Even if you wanted to make friends, you also had to look at the other party. For people like Lu Zhan Tian, he would rather put in more effort. As for these princes, he didn't dare to flatter them. Between princes, benefits were the most important thing. They would even kill their own brothers, why would they care about outsiders?
"There's no need to talk about hostages. I believe in Brother Ye's character. Once you pledge your loyalty, you won't betray us. However, I don't think the three Divine Kingdoms will agree to this, right?" Long Nian frowned.
"Whether they agree or not depends on their sincerity." Ye Qinghan said calmly.
The four of them remained silent. But soon, Kuang Fu brought over a large amount of delicacies. Ye Qinghan even personally brewed some good wine. Although it wasn't much, it was enough to deal with the guests.
"I, Ye Qinghan, have just arrived at the Mythical Realm. I don't want to be enemies with anyone. I hope that everyone can understand that if I wasn't forced into a corner, I wouldn't have destroyed Gong Yang Prefecture. So, if you want to be friends with me, I will naturally treat you as a friend. If you want to be enemies with me, I, Kuang Fu, will not sit still and wait for death." Ye Qinghan said casually. What he wanted was an equal status. His words made Tai Qing Xuan break out in cold sweat.
Long Nian laughed. He was also shocked by Ye Qinghan's straightforwardness. If Ye Qinghan was an ordinary rogue cultivator, he would definitely be friends with him. Unfortunately, Ye Qinghan was a rising powerhouse of the new generation. He was destined to be glorious or die young. He had to be careful when interacting with him, so he was destined to be unable to become close friends with him.
Polaris Chengfeng narrowed his eyes at Ye Qinghan. He knew that Ye Qinghan had a powerful backer behind him. However, Ye Qinghan's backer was merely a Prefecture Master. The Scandinavian Nation didn't care about him at all. What the Scandinavian Nation was worried about was whether Ye Qinghan's backer was just a Prefecture Master or a powerful sect!
The three Divine Kingdoms had already investigated the battle in Kuang Fu. How could they not know that Grand Sovereign Shura and Ye Qinghan had called each other brothers?
"Come, come, come. Let's drink and eat. Even if business doesn't work out, we'll still be friends. I, Ye Qinghan, love to make friends and drink! I brewed this wine myself. It's called 'Drunken God Brew'. Have a taste. "Ye Qinghan stood up and poured a cup for the three of them. The fragrance of the wine assailed their noses.
Long Nian was overjoyed. He loved beautiful women and wine the most. He forgot his purpose as soon as he smelled the wine.
The moment the wine entered his stomach, a fiery and domineering energy swooped down on his sea of consciousness. Even the souls of the gods couldn't bear it. The moment the wine entered his stomach, the three princes' auras changed drastically. They became extremely domineering, as if emperors had descended. They felt as if they were Divine Lords!
This cup of Drunken God Brew. A mouse would fight a cat after drinking it, and a prince would call a Divine Lord brother after drinking it. The taste was too domineering, too wild, and intoxicating to the soul!
"Good wine! This is the strongest wine I've ever drunk in my life. It's worthy of being called Drunken God Brew. Even a superior god would get drunk after drinking it, let alone an intermediate god! "Long Nian's face was red, and his body was burning. He couldn't think straight.
"This wine is also called Drunken Spirit. I brewed it for the prefectural army generals. I only have a few jars left. You'll be the first to drink it!" Ye Qinghan was a domineering and wild person. This wine was originally meant for generals like Lu Zhan Tian to drink. Once it was sold, a jar would be worth ten thousand Divinity Crystals! If it was auctioned, Long Nian would probably be willing to pay a hundred thousand Divinity Crystals for it.
"Princes, how much can you sell this wine for?" Ye Qinghan asked calmly.
"It's hard to get! I'm willing to pay one hundred thousand Divinity Crystals! "Long Nian looked at the jar in Ye Qinghan's hand and smacked his lips.
"It's too domineering. Normal people wouldn't be able to handle it. It's indeed suitable for an army. If it's a bit less intense, ten thousand Divinity Crystals would be enough to buy it. I wonder if Brother Ye can sell the recipe to me …" Powu Chengfeng seemed to have found a way to make a fortune. Powu didn't have any mineral resources. With this wine, would Powu Divine Nation still lack Divinity Crystals? Would they still lack Divinity Crystals?
Ye Qinghan shook his head and suggested, "Of course I won't sell the recipe, but I can work with the three princes and earn money together. I'll stand outside the rules while you guys sell the wine within the rules. The profit will be split 40-60. I'll take 60%, you guys take 40%."
Having the princes of the three divine nations work for him was the perfect plan. Of course, the Three Clear Divine Nation didn't need Tai Qing Xuan, and he didn't have the qualifications to be the agent of the Drunken God Brew. If he wanted to be the agent of the Drunken God Brew, he had to have a high status in the divine nation and a wide network of connections!
"Oh? Do business? " Long Lai frowned. He didn't expect Ye Qinghan to stand outside the rules and build a business empire that would be on equal footing with the three Divine Nations!
"That's right. I can divide the intensity of this wine into nine levels, suitable for all kinds of people. As long as you guys help me promote it, why worry about not making money?" Ye Qinghan said indifferently.
"Why is everyone fighting for power and profit? Isn't it all for resources? With Divinity Crystals, what resources can't you buy? " Ye Qinghan tempted. As long as this place was built into a business empire, it would naturally become a territory outside the rules. However, to build a business empire, one had to have the support of the princes of the three Divine Nations. Furthermore, they had to be of high status. For example, even Long Lai and the prince of the Sacred Dragon Divine Nation had to give some face. As for Powu Chengfeng, he was the toughest hawk in Powu Divine Nation. Usually, no one dared to offend him.
Powu Chengfeng was interested. Long Lai might not be short of money, but he was short of money! If he could cooperate with Ye Qinghan, Divinity Crystals would come rolling in. He would no longer be restricted by resources!
"If Brother Ye likes it, I can help you promote it." Long Lai saw that Ye Qinghan was not keen on war, so Ye Qinghan would not take sides. It was a good choice to let him be in the middle as a buffer for the three Divine Nations. After all, the Sacred Dragon Divine Nation was rich in resources. No one lacked Divinity Crystals or resources. Who would be willing to fight?
"I'm willing to represent Powu Divine Nation in selling wine!" Powu Chengfeng's eyes flashed. He had a way to make a fortune, but he did not say much.
Long Lai loved wine. It was not bad to be a prince selling wine. However, he did not care about money. What he cared about was the painting of Medusa. Therefore, he pointed to the painting and said, "Daoist Ye, I don't want a share of the profits. Just give me 30%. However, you have to give me that painting. How about that?"
Ye Qinghan was speechless. 10% of the profits in exchange for a painting of Medusa!
"I can't make the decision. You should discuss it with my wife," Ye Qinghan said helplessly.
At that moment, Emperor Ye was strolling around the residence with the divine bird and cloud beast. When he heard Ye Qinghan's summons, he lifted his skirt and walked to the grand hall. The three princes were all people who had seen beauties before. However, when they saw Emperor Ye, they were stunned.
"There is actually such an otherworldly woman in this world! She is indeed like a fairy who walked out of a painting. Brother Ye is so lucky! "Long Lai said enviously.
Emperor Ye smiled. Before he could express his gratitude, the divine bird said disdainfully, "Have you never seen a beauty before? You call such a brat beautiful? "
Long Lai immediately spat out a mouthful of wine and looked at the divine bird. After a while, he reacted and angrily said, "Spirit-Devouring Parrot, have you seen a woman more beautiful than this fairy?"
"Tsk tsk, this country bumpkin is ignorant. This divine bird will find a beauty from my divine bird clan another day. I have no interest in looking at trash like this little girl … However, your dragon bloodline is so thick. Shouldn't you be more interested in the uncouth dragons?" The divine bird mocked.
It was no wonder that Long Lai was infatuated. At this moment, even Tai Qing Xuan and Powu Chengfeng were shocked. Emperor Ye might not be the most beautiful, but his temperament was the most otherworldly. He did not seem like a human at all. He was a fairy, a fairy, and flawless.
Emperor Ye curled his lips and looked at the divine bird with disdain. He then said to Ye Qinghan, "Master, why are you looking for me?"
