"Okay, sign the soul contract!" Ye Liuyun was also unequivocal.
Hearing this, the other elders were all amazed, they didn't expect Ye Liuyun to be serious.
"Hahaha!" The patriarch laughed instead: "You don't think about it anymore?"
"Does the patriarch need to think about it?" Ye Liuyun asked back.
"Okay, sign!" The patriarch readily agreed.
Therefore, he and Ye Liuyun directly signed the soul contract. At the same time, Ye Liuyun asked the first elder and second elder to sign a contract together, so that they would not accept it if they changed the patriarch.
With such a big Feng family, it is impossible to change the patriarch, first elder and second elder at the same time because of this.
Afterwards, Ye Liuyun said that he had to go back to arrange something, so he left immediately.
As soon as Ye Liuyun left, the businessman Wu Xiu immediately became proud.
"Young people don't know the heights of the heavens and the depths of the earth, so they gave us 100 billion high-grade spirit stones for nothing!"
The patriarch Feng Yunxiao looked at him and asked him, "Do you think he is joking?"
"Uh... Patriarch, you won't be intimidated by him too, right?" The businessman looked at the patriarch warily.
"You don't have to go for the time being. After two months, we will see the outcome. It's not too late to go again then!"
"Yes!" He agreed and stepped back.
"Where is this kid playing? Does he really have that ability?" the First Elder asked the Second Elder.
"It's hard to say! Anyway, he has done amazing things." The second elder is not sure, but judging from Ye Liuyun's previous actions, he is often a blockbuster.
At this moment, the patriarch interjected: "Maybe he has already had these ideas! It's just that he only brought them up when he met us. Do you think that at his age, he would think so much on the spot?"
When he asked this, both the First Elder and the Second Elder could not help but nod their heads.
Then he said: "No matter what it is, we should give him a chance just because of his arrogance. Our Feng family does not have this kind of disciple! Besides, no matter whether we win or lose this bet, we will not suffer!"
"Okay, let's wait for two months to see!" The Great Elder also agreed with the Patriarch's statement.
After Ye Liuyun returned, he immediately communicated with Qin Peng and Cyclops using the sound transmission talisman.
He asked Qin Peng to rectify the army and prepare to attack on both north and south lines. At the same time, let Cyclops prepare resources and make various investments.
"My lord, won't you come back to preside over such a big move?" Qin Peng and Duoyan were a little worried.
"I'll go back tomorrow, the day after tomorrow, you guys prepare first!"
Afterwards, Ye Liuyun found the fourth prince.
The fourth prince is on his way back to the imperial city at this moment. After the last witness card robbery incident, he did not return to the academy, but continued to rush to the imperial city.
The competition for the prince's succession is about to begin, and it's time for him to come back and prepare.
"I plan to expand the scope of the territory. I need to go to the north and south of the Demon Realm, and then take down a sphere of influence as large as the Demon Realm."
Ye Liuyun was not polite, and directly told the fourth prince her intentions.
"What are you going to bother about?" The fourth prince was taken aback when he heard that.
"To do business with the Feng family, I need a large enough sphere of influence." Ye Liuyun said frankly.
"It's okay to go north, it's a triangular chaotic area, and it's full of robbers, you go fight it yourself. To the south, you can rely on Ninghou's garrison and expand outward. I will first find out who are the princes in that range, and then I will reply you!"
"Okay!" Ye Liuyun agreed, and waited for his reply.
"Triangle chaos, isn't that Lan Ruobing's territory? Maybe it can be solved without sending troops!"
Ye Liuyun began to think about how to operate each step and what resources were needed.
Not long after, Ye Liuyun received a reply from the fourth prince.
"There are a few princes, if you are willing to pay some moving expenses, you can move them away. I am familiar with them, and I can help you. Anyway, you killed a lot of princes, and there are plenty of vacancies. There are two others I am not familiar with, you It's time to solve it by yourself..."
The Central Continent is different from the situation outside the region. There are many princes and princes in various places, relatively dense, but most of them have no real power.
The two that the fourth prince can't speak to are the forces of the seventh prince. Ye Liuyun immediately promised to pay the Seventh Prince a fee to transfer the two of them away.
In this way, Ye Liuyun only took out some spirit stones and settled the area.
Later, Ye Liuyun asked the fourth prince for a map to understand the situation in this area.
This area, in the northern part of the entire Central Continent, is only a small area, but it is the entrance and exit of the Central Continent to the north.
This area is not only strategically important, but also an important commercial center.
After reading the map, Ye Liuyun passed the map to Qin Peng, asking him to station troops at several key locations.
"My lord, with such a large territory, we may have to increase our troops again!" Qin Peng said worriedly.
"Then you can arrange to recruit troops locally!" Ye Liuyun agreed without hesitation.
It is impossible for him to stop this grand plan because of the cost of recruiting troops.
Fortunately, Qin Peng had just killed a few princes, and gained a lot, and there was no shortage of military supplies for ordinary soldiers.
During this period of time, Ye Liuyun also saved some money, so he didn't have a big need for funds for a while.
Cyclops also calculated the funds needed to invest in those large bases.
"The funds for infrastructure are enough, but the funds for purchasing medicinal materials and beasts are gone."
Ye Liuyun thought for a while: "That's okay! I have a lot of medicinal resources! We can catch some beasts ourselves. The rest will be invested by the Feng family!"
"That's good! But what about the business issues in the newly opened area? Can't all be given to the Feng family? And I can't take care of so many, and the manpower is not enough!"
Then, they discussed business issues in the newly expanded area.
Ye Liuyun immediately contacted Liang Xue again.
"Xue'er, I recently took over a large area, and I need to set up my own trading firm and intelligence network. There is really no manpower. You have managed the chamber of commerce before, can you come and help me?"
"Okay!" Liang Xue agreed without saying a word.
"I can help you with the affairs of the chamber of commerce. But I don't understand the intelligence network, why don't you ask Qingcheng?" Liang Xue suggested that Wu Qingcheng should prepare for the establishment of the intelligence network.
"Qingcheng has been a killer before, but she doesn't necessarily understand intelligence collection, and they are too far away from me, I don't have time to go!" Ye Liuyun is also very helpless now. What he lacks most now is time.
And as his sphere of influence grew, he became increasingly short of manpower, especially very reliable manpower.
