Chapter 5671 Tightly Guarded
Liang Defang also regretted his carelessness in his heart. But at this point, he was powerless to save the situation and could only work for Ye Liuyun first.
After that, Ye Liuyun set up a teleportation array in the City Lord's Mansion, and then returned directly to the Ye family and set up a teleportation array.
In this way, he could go directly to the City Lord's Mansion in the future without running back and forth. He didn't stay at the Ye family for long.
After returning to the Ye family, he just explained the metal resources and conscription matters, and then rushed to Yueling City with everyone around him.
In his opinion, Wangyue City is still not big enough. He has to find a way to control the city lord of Yueling City and control a central city.
Anyway, Yueling City is also in the east, so he can go to Wangcheng on the way.
The map here is also very clear, with clear regional divisions for each city.
Ye Liuyun and his team arrived at Yueling City smoothly not long after.
"It's too boring to travel in the east, just absorbing some luck along the way!"
Zhang Yuhan also complained.
Ye Liuyun and Ye Tianshi also took turns to travel. Ye Tiandao did not come out at all, and concentrated on practicing in the cave world.
The law and order in the east was too good, and there were no troublemakers along the way, let alone fights.
Due to the lack of manpower in the east, the city lords of each city did not encourage martial artists to use force. Over time, martial artists developed a habit.
Only when Ye Liuyun came out would he secretly absorb some luck.
Ye Liuyun absorbed luck while walking, and his luck and Dao principles reached the sixth level of perfection.
"Otherwise, why are the people here so weak!"
Xiao Ningxiang was also very disappointed. She could fight ordinary martial artists of the first level of Xuan Dao in the east.
"Don't worry about others, just lay a solid foundation for yourself! Your own strength is always the most important!"
Ye Liuyun also reminded them and took them to Yueling City.
The gates of Yueling City are open all year round, and the garrison does not check, it is just a decoration.
When they arrived
here, they saw the prosperity of the big city in the east, and they were dazzled.
The population here also seems to be slightly larger, and there are many people from other places who come to hang out in the city.
It is estimated that if these outsiders are removed, the population ratio in the city is still about the same.
The strength of the martial artists is not too different, most of them are in the middle and late stages of the Xuanyu realm.
People in the Xuandao realm can be seen occasionally, but they are a little older. Ye Liuyun and his realm are not conspicuous here.
After they entered the city, they went straight to the City Lord's Mansion to ask for an audience with the City Lord and took out the recommendation letter Liang Defang gave them.
Ye Liuyun's excuse for asking to see the City Lord was to open a chamber of commerce here.
To open a chamber of commerce, you need a store, so you need to go to the local City Lord's Mansion for negotiation.
With Liang Defang's recommendation letter, it is easier for them to see the City Lord.
"The City Lord here is a woman? How does she look?"
While waiting for the announcement, Luo Wanyun asked Ye Liuyun.
"I heard from Liang Defang that she is a beautiful woman, and she has been managing Yueling City for many years. The two words Yueling are the name of the City Lord."
Ye Liuyun also explained to several people.
The city lord's name is Dong Yueling. Since she took office, the city has been renamed Yueling City.
Martial artists have long life spans, and many martial artists, especially women, will deliberately practice beauty preservation techniques or use true essence to maintain their appearance.
So no one can tell how old Dong Yueling is, and no one really cares.
"Are you not attracted to beautiful women at all?" Luo Wanyun also took the opportunity to ask him.
"They are all martial artists, what's the difference. If a woman has bad intentions, she is more terrible than a man!"
Ye Liuyun also said truthfully. He is more careful with women than men, and will not take it lightly because of their appearance.
"Not bad! The boss still understands women!" Zhang Yuhan also echoed.
"Alas!" Luo Wanyun sighed.
Facing a man like Ye Liuyun, she had no choice but to slowly win his favor over time.
Xiao Ningxiang smiled secretly with her hands covering her mouth, knowing what Luo Wanyun's sigh meant.
"I'm not talking about you!"
Ye Liuyun didn't think too much about it and explained it for fear that they would misunderstand.
While they were chatting, a guard invited them in, saying that the city lord wanted to summon them.
They stopped chatting and followed the guard into the city lord's mansion.
After entering, Ye Liuyun found that the city lord's mansion was heavily guarded, and the guards in the mansion were all on high alert, with a murderous atmosphere.
"What's going on?"
He was puzzled in his heart and followed the guard inside.
When they arrived at the meeting hall of the city lord's mansion, the guards withdrew and were led into the hall by a guard in the Xuan Dao realm.
There was a beautiful woman sitting in the middle of the hall, pure and elegant, and she should be the city lord Dong Yueling.
He glanced at the woman. The woman was wearing a treasure that blocked her detection, but it couldn't block his golden eyes.
And she was only in the first level of the Xuan Dao realm, and the quality of her true essence was also ordinary, which made Ye Liuyun a little surprised.
He didn't expect that the realm of the city lord Dong Yueling was so low.
A middle-aged maid stood beside Dong Yueling, and two guards stood on both sides. All three were at the level of the sixth level of the Mysterious Dao.
There was also a row of guards at the fourth or fifth level of the Mysterious Dao on each side, and their strength was indeed much stronger than that of Wangyue City.
The quality of the guards' true essence was also slightly higher than that of ordinary martial artists. This formation was quite intimidating.
His original plan to suddenly attack the city lord might be risky.
Ye Liuyun was still wondering what the meaning of such a big battle was.
"Is there a flaw somewhere and she saw it? Or is she more cautious to begin with?"
But he was also greeting the city lord.
"Ye Liuyun, the head of the Ye family, has met City Master Dong!"
"You're welcome, Chief Ye!" Dong Yueling also said calmly, with no sadness or joy in his voice.
"I've already read your letter of recommendation. Chief Ye is so diligent that he even came to me to open a chamber of commerce!"
Dong Yueling's tone was very flat, and her facial expression didn't change much. Ye Liuyun couldn't understand what she meant.
He had no choice but to explain: "The family has expanded a lot recently. I have no choice but to find more income!"
People in the east don't do much business, and there aren't many people like Ye Liuyun who want to expand their business overseas.
So he felt it was necessary to explain so that Dong Yueling would not be suspicious.
"Expanding the family? It's a good thing that Patriarch Ye can expand the family! How many people are there in the Ye family now?"
Dong Yueling also said casually.
"It's just a coincidence! There are three thousand people in the Ye family now!" Ye Liuyun also said modestly.
"Three thousand people?"
Dong Yueling was also shocked when he heard this. A family of three thousand people is large enough within the jurisdiction of Yueling City.
She immediately asked Ye Liuyun: "It's okay to open a chamber of commerce, but how many family members do you plan to arrange to come to Yueling City?
You should also know that recruiting troops is difficult in every city. Although Yueling City seems to have a lot of people, they are all from outside.
I can rent the store to you, although it will be more troublesome. If your family can produce some people, you can be considered as having contributed to Yueling City. "
Her meaning is very clear. If she helps Yueling City solve the conscription problem, everything will be easy to negotiate.
Otherwise, there is no contribution to Yueling City, and there is no need for her to change the current situation of Yueling City.
