The deal with Solid Mix was finalized in just one hour.
Ji Sian left, taking with him a deposit of 100 million monthly. Then, in the future, a steady stream of various animal pond equipment will be transported into Yunding Manor.
At the same time, what he left behind was the secret about the rebel dragon clan.
Ye Zhongming was silent while holding an incomplete star chart that could explain many problems.
He finally knew where the Rebel Dragon Clan was.
But... if there is this, why is it still wandering in the universe?
What Gu Bian gave Ye Zhongming was a star map. To be precise, it was a positioning map, locating a point in a certain star field. Once there, it would be close to the habitat of the Rebel Dragon Tribe.
And that point... is a star gate.
Stargate!
The meaning of this word can be known just from the literal meaning.
It turns out that the way to the Rebel Dragon Clan is through a door.
Over the years, this door has been getting farther and farther away, so that every hunt Gu Bian takes will take a long time.
Ye Zhongming looked up the trajectory of the Survivor Fortress and found that if they hadn't been running in an arc for so many years, this star gate might have disappeared into the vast universe long ago.
But the arc is not a circle. One day, this star gate will completely move away until it disappears.
Even now, it will take two months to arrive by the fastest spaceship. Fortunately, the information given by Gu Bian said that after entering the star gate, it is not too far from the habitat of the Dragon Rebel Clan.
, if everything goes well, one month of hunting is enough to capture several heads, and such a trip will take about five months.
Five months…
Although Ye Zhongming had previously speculated that Gu Bian was casting a wide net and playing chess in various places, but for him, he always had the feeling that the other party was willing to spend money.
Yes, there is actually a difference between spending money and being willing to spend money.
By now, he was sure that it was indeed an illusion, because as this star gate gets further and further away from the travel route of all races in the universe, its value is also gradually decreasing. If the other party takes it out now, it is a bit of a 'waste utilization'
suspicion.
Of course, this does not mean that this news has no value. To Ye Zhongming, on the contrary, it is still very valuable.
Ye Zhongming asked Jixu to make an estimate. If the direction of the Survivor Fortress did not change in a short period of time, it might take twenty years or more before the Star Gate was completely out of control.
Twenty years, at least Ye Zhongming felt, was enough.
After putting the exploration of the rebel dragon clan on the agenda, Ye Zhongming still had many things on his mind.
As for the existence of star gates, Ye Zhongming is very doubtful that there are other races or forces among all the races in the universe that have mastered other star gates.
If that's the case, the current situation in the universe may not be what I see.
At the same time, Ye Zhongming must also be prepared for the next large-scale cooperation with Solid Mixing.
Just like Gu Bian, Ye Zhongming doesn't want to put all the good things in the same basket. Secretly there is a good shipping channel, and the same is here for Gu Bian. This not only conceals his identity more
Being comfortable can also allow both organizations to reduce their suspicion and guard against Ye Zhongming.
Too much goods is too good, but sometimes it is not necessarily a good thing.
On the third day after Ji Si'an left, the first batch of animal pool equipment was transported to Yunding Manor, followed by a large number of technical personnel.
The beast pool is no longer a roulette device, but is made by all the races in the universe. The solid mix technology is obviously one of the top, and even Ye Zhongming thinks that it can be removed.
These technicians quickly installed the equipment and then trained relevant operators for Genting Manor.
Ye Zhongming asked the red makeup guards to learn from him.
Ever since his most loyal guards came to the universe, Ye Zhongming has never stopped cultivating them. Liang Chuyin, Yama Wangshu and the others went to the novice battlefield after they came up. At that time, Fu Leila was about two thousand, and finally got a double
First.
But before that, these people in the Red Makeup Guards had already reached this level.
Because of their talent and some previous basic problems, Liang Chuyin, Gao Yiyan Wangshu and others are after all special training targets. Up to now, everyone's Fu Leila has improved by leaps and bounds, and some have exceeded three thousand. Most of the members of the Red Makeup Guard have been left behind.
But even so, they are much stronger than when they killed the great masters.
Now the average number of players in the team has reached more than 2,500, and dozens of highly qualified members, such as Xiao Min and Dai Zhi, have reached around 3,000.
Progress was rapid, but Ye Zhongming felt it was not enough.
So he used various methods on the Red Makeup Guards before, and even established a system of going to the Library Palace to gain the strengths of other families. But he still wanted to make these warriors stronger.
He made tailor-made equipment for them, taught them exercises, taught them ancient battle formations, purchased various medicines and potions for them that could enhance their strength, and also purchased some war beasts for them that could cooperate with each other.
There are not many in number, only a few dozen in the initial stage. Each team can probably get one, and its abilities are the same as on Earth, and they can make up for shortcomings or develop their strengths.
As for their war pets on Earth, not to mention that it would be inappropriate to spend too much to acquire them, and their future potential is far inferior to the various novel life forms in the universe.
Now, let them learn various techniques of the beast pool equipment, and in the future they will cultivate the war beasts themselves.
To this end, Ye Zhongming once again ordered hundreds of war beasts specially customized for the Red Makeup Guards with Gu Bian.
However, Ye Zhongming knew very well that it was not impossible for his subordinates to maintain rapid progress, but that would require a large amount of monthly salary support.
He is indeed very rich now. He used to earn a sum of money from selling equipment and a sum of money from selling medicines. Shops all over Dark Strip City can now also earn a sum of money. Husky and other hidden stakes outside can also provide a sum of funds regularly. Newbies
There is also some income from places like the Battlefield Planet Hunting Ground, and there is also a little income from the mining planets, and the money gained from secretly going there is a lot.
However, he also spent a lot, and had more than a thousand men who were "intensively" raised. Now he still has to worry about the affairs of the Star Eye Clan. The master-level White Dragon Horse and Leilei Bird also need to improve, and they also need money. Ye Zhongming himself
I still need to practice, and I have tried my best to control it, but it still costs a lot of money.
Now I have purchased a large amount of equipment and war beasts from the beast pool. Even if I use two circulating medicines to pay for it, it is still a huge sum of money.
This does not include the cost of maintaining Genting Manor and the fleet in the universe.
Ye Zhongming has now entered the ranks of the poor again.
It would be fine if he could sell equipment in large quantities, but the current situation is that with dwarves looking for him all over the world, he no longer dares to let large quantities of equipment enter the market for fear of being traced to the source, or even even
I secretly ordered a high-quality Lenny class mission there and didn't dare to accept it, for fear of meeting ghosts if I walked too much at night.
This is tantamount to cutting off Ye Zhongming's biggest source of income.
Seeing that the money on hand was decreasing significantly every day, Ye Zhongming even considered asking Yaohansu and Beiyin for a loan.
But he knew he couldn't do this.
The current situation outside seems to be nothing, but undercurrents are surging beneath the surface. The Sioux and Hall people are facing great pressure. These pressures are not just psychological, but are everywhere.
Both super-rich clans need to spend countless amounts of money on such small conflicts and confrontations that occur almost all the time.
If they invest huge sums of money in Ye Zhongming, they may have problems themselves.
Therefore, finding money has become Ye Zhongming's number one problem.
Faced with this situation, there are only two solutions.
Externally, Ye Zhongming needs to find sources of income. Internally, he may need to increase revenue and reduce expenditure.
Equipment cannot be sold, and there is basically nothing that Ye Zhongming can do to outsiders. If he wants to get a large amount of funds, the most likely place is to start the war on the planet hunting ground this year. In this way, not only will the bonuses from winning the battlefield to novices be paid out, but the income from it will also be paid out.
There will be quite a few.
However, we can’t count on it now. First, there is still some time, even if it is only a few months, it still cannot quench the thirst. Second, this newbie battlefield will not be like the last one, and it is very likely that racial conflicts will break out.
In a fierce conflict, let alone hunting, everyone who goes up may suffer heavy casualties.
So... Ye Zhongming suddenly had an idea.
What if you build a place similar to a planetary hunting ground? Hunt a large number of parasites and obtain monthly gold?
This is definitely the most direct method, but such a planet is not easy to find. If you find it, it may not be suitable for hunting. Either the number of parasites on it is too small and it is not worth taking action, or there are too many parasites on it. If you go there, you will just deliver food.
It's too difficult to find a suitable place. If there is such a place, it has either become a hunting ground for the planet, or it has become a forbidden area for super rich families, and it is not the turn of a small cloud top.
For a time, the external approach fell into a situation where there was no clue.
Internally, without reducing everyone's cultivation resources, we can probably only tap our potential internally and work hard to develop the economy of Dark Strip City. No matter how well we do it, we may have immediate results.
As Ye Zhongming settled the payment for goods with Guban, Ye Zhongming could count the money on hand at a glance. If there is no more income, it is estimated that Yunding Manor can only last less than twenty days.
This was the first time that Ye Zhongming felt helpless in this regard.
Under such circumstances, Ye Zhongming could only start to find another way.
First, he focused on the equipment from the red dwarves of Talos.
The equipment he made himself could not be sold out, but the ones made by the dwarves could. For this reason, Ye Zhongming purchased a large number of such equipment from the races in Dark Strip City, and then renovated and repaired it to a certain extent before selling it out.
to earn the difference.
Speaking of risks, there are also risks in doing this. After all, each craftsman has different techniques, and if you investigate carefully, you can always find some suspicious places. At the same time, if you put it into the market in large quantities, there is also the possibility of abnormalities being discovered.
In order to reduce the risk, Ye Zhongming did not use these weapons and equipment through the previous channels when selling goods to the dwarves. Instead, he handed over the goods to the Sioux and Musk Stars and sold them in stores in their main city.
Due to cost-effectiveness issues, the sales of these equipment will definitely not be as popular as those made by Ye Zhongming himself, but after all, the items are not bad, and they can still sell some every day. The two super wealthy families also know that Ye Zhongming has been under a lot of pressure recently.
Basically, the payment will be made promptly the next day, which relieves some financial pressure.
Secondly, Ye Zhongming also had to sell some of his family assets.
Among them, there are various medicines from Changxu Aquarium, solid mixture is the main shipment target, and some very high-end medicines will also be shipped secretly there.
The sale of these drugs brought a lot of income. If the income from the price difference of repairing and renovating the equipment can continue to maintain Yunding Manor for dozens of days, then this income will allow Ye Zhongming to support the business without spending additional money.
After a hundred days.
Finally, Ye Zhongming began to take on tasks that could be completed in various places.
For example, those from various organizations, such as those in the dark side.
The advantage of doing this is that you can use it to train troops.
Although the Xingyan tribe and the smaller tribes could not help much in terms of money, they had manpower that Ye Zhongming could basically mobilize at will. For this reason, in less than thirty days, Ye Zhongming received dozens of
All the tasks, big and small, difficult and easy, were basically completed, and I received a sum of money.
But this approach cannot last long.
Now that he is in trouble, the Xingyan tribe and other small races are helping him, and they are very enthusiastic about going on missions and fighting, because Ye Zhongming has also helped them before. But this way of taking missions and completing them has casualties.
Over time, people will feel that you don't take their lives seriously. At the same time, there are various costs that Ye Zhongming can't let others bear, so half of this income is spent again.
It can be said that each method does not yield much, but fortunately, the little things add up, which can be said to have allowed Ye Zhongming to survive the most difficult period.
More than three months have passed since the novice battlefield ended and Ye Zhongming escaped from this embarrassing state.
The past three months or so have been a rare "calm period" for Ye Zhongming. The main energy has been put on peaceful development, as if all the previous battles, adventures, etc. were suddenly far away.
But the King of Genting knows that after such a calm period, he will have to face a more turbulent situation.
Just like the planet hunting ground that is about to arrive, or the message from Gu Bian that we need to capture the rebel dragon clan together.
Under such circumstances, Ye Zhongming was originally going to leave Dark Strip City and go to the Su Clan to discuss the matter of the planet hunting ground. But before leaving, while contacting the earth, a news suddenly came from there.
Sister Hong is going to heaven!
This caught Ye Zhongming a little off guard.
Now if you want to go to heaven, you must smuggle it. The money is a lot, and you have to ask the secret member for help.
But Ye Zhongming also knows Sister Hong's character, and she would not make such a request unless necessary.
After thinking about it, Ye Zhongming agreed, and he felt that since he was going to smuggle once, he should bring more people.
