Chapter 479 Battle Invitation
When Yun Qichen came back, he first glared at the brat who had his arm resting on his sister's waist, then reached out and pulled his sister back to sit.
Yun Qimu smiled and blinked at Wu Xingyu, then followed Yun Qichen's strength and sat back down obediently. He tilted his head and asked curiously, "Brother, what does Yun Ting want to talk to you about?"
Yun Qichen reached out and picked up a bright yellow orange from the coffee table. His slender fingers nimbly peeled the orange peel and carefully tore off the white stem. He fed two slices to Yun Qimu before slowly speaking.
"I mentioned to Yun Ting before that I wanted to visit the Yun family. With Yun Ting's intelligence, he should have guessed something."
"Oh." Yun Qimu blinked and glanced at his brother. "What did he do just now?"
Yun Qichen understood what was going on and smiled slightly, "Someone wants to replace the Yun family and has challenged the two brothers. Yun Ting asked me to borrow a puppet to fight."
Yun Qimu looked at him curiously. "Oh, that sounds interesting. When are they going to compete? Can we go and watch?"
"Well, it should be tomorrow. We've arranged to meet at the Saint Roya Arena. If you want to go, we can go together tomorrow. Anyone can enter as long as they buy a ticket." Yun Qichen said with a smile. Although he didn't really want his good brother to be a generation older than him, the Yun family was in trouble and they really needed to go and see.
These days he has gained a lot of in-depth understanding of the imperial nobles. Yun Qichen has investigated the imperial Yun family, a family that is 99% of their relatives, in more detail than other families.
Ever since the empire split more than forty years ago, Yun Cang led most of the Yun family's branches to support Kimberly's rebellion and split from the Imperial Yun Family. Since then, the Imperial Yun Family has suffered irreversible decline.
In particular, Yun Wu, the head of the Yun family, is a man of affection and righteousness. Because his wife is weak and cannot give birth to children, he has suffered a lot of blame from the Yun family for not having an heir. However, Yun Wu still did not divorce, nor did he find another person, nor did he find a laboratory to cultivate children through genes. Instead, he stayed by his sick wife's side wholeheartedly.
As a result, the remaining branches of the Yun family had an idea. They also attempted to drive out Yun Wu, the patriarch and marquis who was occupying the toilet but not doing anything, and nominate another person to become the head of the Yun family.
Although Yun Wu won this civil war, it plunged the already precarious Yun family into an even more dire situation and forced the Yun family to withdraw from the power center of the empire. Yun Wu even almost lost his position as a marquis.
In the end, it was Emperor Argus who intervened and helped the Yun family retain the title of Marquis.
But because of this experience, most of the Yun family's branches that participated in the incident split up, leaving only a few loyal people.
Yun Wu simply closed off the Yun family's external communications and became a secluded family.
It was not until Yun Wu's wife recovered from her illness and gave birth to Yun Ting and Yun He that the Yun family gradually became active again.
But the decline of the Yun family was a fact, and even Yun Wu, no matter how powerful he was, would have found it difficult to reverse the situation. Therefore, the Yun family was now inferior to other marquises, not even to some well-developed earl and viscount families.
Therefore, the Yun family has become a hot commodity in the eyes of many wolves. Over the years, they have encountered many people who tried to take advantage of the Yun family's weakness to seize the Yun family's property. Some of them succeeded and some failed.
This time, the Yun family encountered the Viscount Ming family. The Ming family had their eyes on a small energy star owned by the Yun family and wanted to secretly dig out the energy stones inside to supply their newly opened mecha company.
But they were unlucky, as their secret plan was discovered by the Yun family.
If it were someone with a thin skin, they would just give up and pretend nothing happened, or pretend that it was done by someone below them and the head of the family didn't know about it, and then bring gifts to apologize just for the sake of appearances.
But Viscount Ming was a shameless man. After being discovered, he not only did not feel ashamed, but instead brought the secret things out into the open and simply issued a challenge to the Yun family.
If the Ming family wins, the energy star they have set their eyes on will belong to them. If the Yun family wins, the energy star will still belong to the Yun family.
This practice is extremely shameless.
The Yun family disagreed, and finally Yun Wu came forward to change the terms of the battle. If the Ming family won, the energy star would belong to them, but if they, the Yun family, won, then they would take the latest undeveloped planet purchased by the Ming family.
After listening to his elder brother's explanation of the whole process, Yun Qimu touched his chin and felt that Grandpa Yunwu might be taking advantage of the situation and coveting other people's planets.
She curled her lips happily, rolled her eyes, and suddenly slapped her thigh excitedly and said, "Oh, by the way, I thought of another good business. We can sell puppets."
"Tomorrow the Ming and Yun families will compete in the large Saint Roya arena, so everyone in Saint Roya will be able to see it. We can use this opportunity to promote puppets. The puppets produced in our Global Village are both powerful and beautiful. They don't require human intervention, which ensures life safety. They are thousands of times better than mechas. I guarantee that as soon as puppets are released, mechas will absolutely lose their competitiveness."
Wu Xingyu nodded, with an expression that said, "How come the girl I like is so smart?"
Yun Qichen glanced at him, unable to help but twitch his lips. Then he poured cold water on his sister, "We can sell it, but the production of puppets is not high. The weapons and equipment store only produces one a day now, and the people in Global Village are already fighting over them. How can we sell them?"
Yun Qimu raised the corner of his mouth proudly, "Don't worry about this, big brother. I've found a way to expand production. Big brother, do you still remember the dwarf Alex from the Colosseum?"
Yun Qichen nodded, "I remember."
"Hehe." Yun Qimu smiled with sparkling eyes. "He and the tree demon North have won fifty matches in the Roman Colosseum and exchanged them for energy that can make them awake. So now they have regained consciousness and become citizens of Earth Town. I also hired the dwarf Alex to work in the weapons and equipment shop. I also got the blueprints for making a puppet, and Alex has already learned how to make a puppet."
"Another reason I came here this time is to get a few dwarves to help Alex, so that the mass production can be faster."
Yuan An's eyes lit up, "Really? I know where the dwarves are. Leave this matter to me."
Yun Qimu nodded readily, "Okay, if you need money, just ask. After all, they will be my employees from now on, so I will still have to pay for their redemption."
"Hehehe, got it." Yuan An scratched his head and grinned foolishly.
Village Chief Yun had just made a lot of money and had become very generous. If it had been when they had just met, Yuan An felt that he would definitely not have been able to hear what Village Chief Yun had just said.
