"What? Did you figure it out?" Mo Li chuckled.
"Nonsense, I'm not stupid …" Su Ran Xue rolled her eyes adorably, "However, this Brother Jin Hu is quite foolish. I still don't know why he made a fool out of me …"
"They're not stupid. They didn't react in time." "At that time, the brothers Jin Hu and Dong Fanchen probably didn't expect that Third Young Master Ye and Dong Fanchen would agree to their conditions so quickly." Mo Li sat on the stone bench and stretched. "At that time, the brothers Jin Hu and Dong Fanchen probably didn't expect that Third Young Master Ye and Dong Fanchen would agree to their conditions so neatly.
The encampment of the Feral Tiger Mercenaries was located on the south street of the Heaven Lake Town. The Ye Family and the Wild Lion Mercenaries were separated, but the northern half of the two streets was split between the Feral Tiger Mercenaries.
This time, Jin Hu had brought back quite a few men. Adding on his original strength, his strength was even stronger than the previous Feral Tiger Mercenaries. Many people in the Heaven Lake Town didn't understand why the Ye Family and the Savage Lion Mercenary Company still decided to give the Silver Tiger its territory. However, Mo Li knew what the Third Young Master and Dongfang Chen were planning.
You should at least send someone to guard the territory, right?
The territories given by the two families were equivalent to two times the original territory of the Feral Tiger Mercenaries. In addition, the territories given by the two families made it difficult for them to care for each other. This way, the Feral Tiger Mercenaries would be completely disbanded!
In addition, even though the Feral Tiger Mercenaries took up two of the new territories, the profits were not something that could be obtained in a day or two. This time difference was enough for the Ye Family and the Wild Lion Mercenaries to do a lot of things.
Thus, the Third Young Master of the Night and Dong Fanchen were both smart people. The two brothers had probably figured it out after a while, but it was impossible for them to give up on these two territories.
As the saying goes, "The sandpiper clams compete with the clam." Mo Li was trying his best to act like a fisherman. However, he still had to walk step by step. After staying here for a few days, what Mo Li wanted to do the most was expand the encampment.
Uncle Yan's ancestral home was empty compared to the previous Flying Yan Mercenary Group, but it still couldn't meet Mo Li's requirements.
"Uncle Yan, who are the people in the houses on the left and right side of the yard?"
Uncle Yan was puzzled by Mo Li's question. "They're all ordinary residents here, why are you asking this?"
"Is their house for sale? "I want to buy it to expand, this place is definitely not enough in the future …" Mo Li didn't hide anything.
"Is that so …" Uncle Yan frowned slightly. He hesitated for a moment, "North Street is originally a barren land. If the price is high enough, they should be willing to sell it …" "After all, buying a house in the center of town is much more comfortable than staying here."
"As long as the money can solve the problem, it's not a problem!" Mo Li patted his chest and grinned. He shouted towards the outside of the courtyard, "Yan Qi, Tie Niu, and Bao Zi, come here!"
Three figures rushed in from outside like the wind. If it wasn't for the fact that they were a little too large, they would have been in pursuit of the youth.
"What's the matter, Young Master? Is there a fight? " The iron bull, which was two meters tall, slightly bent its body and stared at Mo Li with an impatient expression.
He and Baozi were both brothers that had grown up together with Yan Qi. Before this, they had always been on their own, but now that they had returned to the Heaven Lake, Yan Qi had brought them closer to the Flying Swallow Mercenaries.
Before, the two of them were still in the martial realm like Yan Qi. It was only a few days ago that the three of them successfully broke through to the Profound realm with Mo Li's help. So right now, the three of them were truly dead set on Mo Li.
Yan Qi was simple and honest, while the iron bull liked to fight. As for the leopard's body, although it belonged to the type of brawny man like the two of them, its mind was clearly much more exquisite.
"You only know how to fight! Have you finished hacking the logs you hacked today? " Mo Li intentionally asked with a straight face.
After seeing Mo Li's skill, the three of them cried and fought to take him in as their master. Mo Li didn't dare to take him in as his disciple, but it was still alright to give them some pointers and make some training plans for each of them.
"Ah …" "There's still some left, I'll go now!"
"Come back! There's no need to go today. The three of you, go and help me collect the debt! "
"Collect money?" When the Steel Ox heard this, its eyes lit up even more.
"Un …" Mo Li nodded and said something that made everyone's scalps go numb, "That woman called Sister Hong doesn't pay Miss Xiaoxue the medical fee, a total of 50,000 gold taels. Go and get it back!"
"Puff …"
Su Ran Xue spat out the tea that she had just drank.
Tilting her head to look at the serious face of the man, Su Ran Xue wiped off the water stains on her skirt while sighing in her heart: This guy is as shameless as ever, whether he is in the snow region or the mortal world …
"What are you still standing here for? Hurry up and go! " Mo Li glared viciously at the three of them, who were hesitating on the spot.
They looked at each other, and in the end, Tie Niu still bit the bullet and said, "Um … Gongzi, stop messing with us … Hong Sis, that woman isn't so easy to mess with … Besides, how could the other party believe that you sent us there? If they were to accidentally beat us up … Even that Heart Forging Expert of the Silver Tiger was still recovering from the blow, with our small stature … I can't take it anymore... "
"Not to be trifled with?" Mo Li laughed. "It is perfectly justified for her to pay the medical fee for treating her! You guys go out and turn right about 500 meters. There's a vulgar man with a stall under that old locust tree who wants to take you guys there, but if that woman doesn't come back and tell me, I'll get Snowy to go up there and discuss this with her! "
The corner of Su Ran Xue's mouth twitched again.
"But …"
"Steel Ox …" Listen to the young master, we'll head there now! "
In the end, the leopard, who had been silent all this time, interrupted the iron bull and dragged the two of them out of the yard.
Seeing the three of them leave, Uncle Yan sighed with a complicated expression on his face.
"Uncle Yan, you don't have to worry. Yan Qi is still young now, and he has experienced little; it's a good thing he has a fearful heart!" Mo Li knew what Uncle Yan was thinking and tried to comfort him.
Truth be told, he was well aware of Hong Mei's resounding reputation in Heaven Lake Town. Coupled with the incident where she heavily injured the Silver Tiger, it was likely that her notoriety had far surpassed her reputation. It was normal for Yan Qi and the other two to feel fear in their hearts. However, if they didn't even have the courage to do so, then they didn't have the qualifications to be on their own.
"Hopefully! Although my Yan Clan is not a big family, as a father, who doesn't wish for their son to become capable? "I'll be depending on young master then..." Even the way Yan San was addressed had changed the way he was addressed. This meant that the people from the Flying Yan mercenary group were now completely determined to follow Mo Li.
