Chapter 66 After the Mercenary Competition, the Guild Competition

After the mercenary competition, of the six members of Young Master's Elite Group, only Yu Tian Shen Ming would participate in the guild competition. Seeing that after Gu Fei left, You-ge had already started preparing in Xiao Lei's Tavern, Yu Tian Shen Ming was afraid of missing out on this opportunity. He repeatedly told them to wait for him to return before starting.

"Don't worry!" You-ge patted his chest, assuring him. Only after receiving this reply did Yu Tian Shen Ming feel relieved enough to participate in his guild competition.

You-ge had already planned everything for this matter. Even Xiao Lei, the tavern owner, seemed to have become his partner. Under Xiao Lei's arrangement, all the customers in the tavern were concentrated on the left side. On the right side, a large, empty space was cleared, and You-ge instructed the incredibly strong Zhan Wu Shang to pull benches and join tables together, instantly turning it into something resembling a press conference venue.

The players in the tavern were naturally very curious and asked what was going on, but You-ge just smiled and didn't answer.

Zhan Wu Shang, who had put in the hard work, looked at the cleared scene and gaped, "Is it really necessary to make such a big show?"

"This is marketing," You-ge said. "Only if you value the product enough yourself will you arouse others' desire to buy it."

Han Jia Gongzi, holding a wine glass, stuck his head out from a private room and interjected, "Marketing? I think it's more like a prank! If you make such a big deal of it, are you trying to play Qian Li to death, or are you trying to get Qian Li to chop us to death!"

"That's right!" Zhan Wu Shang echoed. "You should arrange for Qian Li to meet them one by one in private. If you gather so many people at once, not only will Qian Li be unhappy, but I don't think these clients will be happy either, right?"

"Meeting one by one, everyone is happy, but how do we fool Qian Li? We might as well fool them all at once and expose him in front of everyone," You-ge said.

"You have to be careful. You're dealing with the big shots of Cloudrise City now. If even a few of them are unhappy with you, you won't have an easy time in the future," Han Jia Gongzi said.

"It's okay." You-ge smiled slyly. "I've already told them everything. This kind of operation also reflects that it's not easy to get to know this mage, so they're even happier to pay the money."

"How much are you planning to charge?" Han Jia Gongzi asked.

"100 gold coins per person should be enough, right? Not too expensive, is it?" You-ge said.

"It's indeed nothing to these prominent figures," Han Jia Gongzi nodded.

"Then how much can we earn this time?" This was the focus that Zhan Wu Shang was truly concerned about.

"Hehe!" You-ge smiled. "122 guilds and 27 mercenary groups have expressed interest. How much do you think that is?"

"14900 gold coins!!!" Zhan Wu Shang was dumbfounded.

"So many people noticed so quickly? Pretty efficient!" Han Jia Gongzi said.

"Thanks to Due to Wine, Sing a Song and Cloud Herding Guild for all the commotion they've been making these past two days. Their advertisements flying all over the city have helped us a lot," You-ge said with a faint smile.

"Then why rush today? Waiting a few more days might bring more revenue," Han Jia Gongzi said.

"Now is when the advertising effect of Due to Wine, Sing a Song and Cloud Herding Guild is at its strongest. Everyone in the city is full of curiosity. Once this period passes, and everyone's interest cools down, many people will probably take a wait-and-see attitude. This kind of business is all about making a quick buck and leaving. Take what you can get. Once this opportunity is gone, it's gone. Why haggle over the amount? Be careful not to end up with nothing." You-ge said.

While the two were discussing the tricks of speculation, Zhan Wu Shang was counting on his fingers.

"14900, how much can I get?" Zhan Wu Shang muttered, glancing at Jian Gui, who was watching coldly from the side. He casually asked, "Jian Gui, this is a pie falling from the sky! Are you really not going to take a bite?"

Jian Gui smiled indifferently and said, "Forget about me! I'll leave first. You guys are busy."

"See you later!" Zhan Wu Shang had no intention of persuading him at all. The fewer people involved, the fewer people to share the money with, and he could take more himself. Zhan Wu Shang had such a simple mind. When he heard this huge number, he even wished that everyone wouldn't participate so that he could handle it alone.

Thinking like this, he couldn't help but feel extremely moved that You-ge was still bringing everyone along even though he was making such a big deal. It was obvious that this matter didn't require any combat power at all; anyone could do it. You-ge could complete it alone. But he was still doing it with everyone else; he was really generous! Zhan Wu Shang felt deeply moved.

While thinking, he sent a message to Yu Tian Shen Ming: "Hey, aren't you coming yet? We're about to start. We don't have time to wait for you!"

"What, what? You guys started after only five minutes? Are you doing this on purpose!" Yu Tian Shen Ming, who was in the middle of the guild war, was anxious.

"No way! The customer is God. Many things are beyond our control," Zhan Wu Shang said gleefully, spouting nonsense. If Yu Tian Shen Ming angrily shouted, "You guys do it! Don't worry about me," then his true goal would be achieved.

Unfortunately, the little devil Yu Tian Shen Ming was not so impulsive. After calmly weighing the benefits, he resolutely abandoned the guild war. Using a sudden need to go to the toilet due to diarrhea as an excuse, he greeted his guild comrades and took the initiative to apply for death. Leaving the battlefield map, he sprinted like a whirlwind towards Xiao Lei's Tavern.

Entering the tavern, he saw that the left side was crowded, while the right side was empty, with only You-ge and Han Jia Gongzi casually picking a spot to drink and chat. Seeing Yu Tian Shen Ming suddenly enter, the two were even surprised.

You-ge glanced at the time: "Did you finish so quickly? Is Soaring Across the Four Seas that strong? I remember your opponent today was also a level four guild, right? It shouldn't be this fast, should it?"

Yu Tian Shen Ming glanced at the corner and saw Zhan Wu Shang laughing so hard that he was falling over. He knew he had been tricked. With an "Aoo, aoo!" he wildly fired N arrows at Zhan Wu Shang.

"I don't provide healing," Han Jia Gongzi reminded the two lightly.

The two immediately didn't dare to fight too fiercely, fearing that they would accidentally kill the other. Although they often wished the other would suffer a miserable death, they hoped that the other would be surrounded and killed by monsters, ambushed and PKed on the way out, or accidentally injured by teammates during combat, but they never hoped that the other would die at their hands.

Yu Tian Shen Ming temporarily suppressed his anger and surveyed the tavern's layout. Like the many players who were unaware of the inside story, he asked, "What's going on here?"

"Gather everyone together, and one meeting will be enough," You-ge said, then instructed Zhan Wu Shang again, "You have an important task, which is to keep an eye on Qian Li. You must not let him run away. If you find anything amiss and he wants to slip away, you must grab him tightly, even if it means ignoring his personal wishes!"

Zhan Wu Shang's face turned ashen. "This task is too dangerous!"

You-ge nodded. "So, you will be given appropriate compensation in terms of money."

"Even if I really die, no amount of money can compensate for the trauma to my soul."

"So you see, any opportunity to make a lot of money comes with a certain amount of risk," You-ge said.

"I feel like I'm bearing this risk alone," Zhan Wu Shang said with a mournful face.

"Only your strength can easily hold Qian Li and prevent him from escaping! How about this, everyone will contribute some magic resistance equipment for you to wear first. I will cast a Spirit Blessing on you at that time, and Gongzi's healing spell will be ready at any time. You can go with peace of mind!" You-ge said.

With that, everyone contributed various pieces of magic defense equipment that they possessed. Zhan Wu Shang temporarily took off his heavy armor and various rough ornaments and equipment, and replaced them with these miscellaneous things. In particular, the magic defense equipment provided by several people was all of the slender type, which was completely incompatible with Zhan Wu Shang's consistently rough figure and temperament. A warrior who was the most incongruous and unfitting warrior in history was born.

"A stain, this is truly a stain on my life!" Zhan Wu Shang lowered his head and looked at himself in exasperation. His feelings for warriors were no less than Yu Tian Shen Ming's feelings for mages. Such a bizarrely dressed warrior was really unbearable for him, and what was even more deadly was that this warrior was himself.

"Bear with it. Safety first," You-ge said seriously, barely suppressing a laugh.

Then the four discussed some of the details of this event, while boss Xiao Lei maintained the consistent order in the tavern.

Time passed minute by minute, and You-ge muttered, "It's about time someone arrived, right?"

As soon as he finished muttering, the right door of the tavern was kicked open, "Damn it, I finally found it. This Xiao Lei's Tavern almost killed me."

You-ge and the others turned their heads and took a look, and couldn't help but be stunned.

Three people entered together. The one at the front was actually the current leader of Moonlit Night City, the legendary leader of the Ten Guild Alliance: Yun Zhong Mu.

Yun Zhong Mu also glanced at the four of them, smiled and approached, "I guessed that the message was sent by you. Hey, coming up with this kind of method to make money is really awesome."

After speaking, he reached into his pocket and threw a money bag on the table, "I heard it's 100 gold coins? Here, count it!" Then he rubbed his hands, randomly found a place to sit, and looked around, "I've long wanted to get to know this brother properly. How about it? Where is he? Isn't he coming yet?"

You-ge and the other four were still in a daze. No one touched the money bag on the table. After a long while, Yu Tian Shen Ming was the first to come back to his senses and looked at You-ge, "Awesome, your business has even expanded to the outer city."

You-ge was obviously also very surprised: "Everyone who was coming had contacted me beforehand. This guy, he came here without saying a word."

"Then, people like him probably won't be the only ones, right?" Han Jia Gongzi said calmly.

"Ah, it seems there's more than 14900 gold coins! No, it should be 15000." Zhan Wu Shang said excitedly, looking at the money bag on the table.
