Chapter 10: Are you dissatisfied?
Later, under the leadership of the Cui brothers, the three of them came to the commercial house rented by the Guangming Guild. This house was not spacious, and was made of gray-white steel, covering an area of about 600 square meters. It was the meeting hall of the Guangming Guild.
This place is remote, there are no commercial streets around, and there are only a few lonely people on the street in front of the building. Ye Chen frowned and immediately took the lead and walked in.
At the entrance of the guild, there stood four soldiers guarding the gate. Perhaps because no one came here usually, they seemed a little casual. They chatted with each other casually, smoking cigarettes, and looked quite comfortable.
When the Cui brothers saw the four people, their faces darkened. Because Ye Chen was beside them, they coughed lightly. Immediately, those who were chatting among themselves heard the noise, put away their cigarettes, threw them at their feet and stepped on them, then stood up straight. When they saw Ye Chen and the Cui brothers, they all smiled.
"Welcome Brother Cui back with his distinguished guests." The four of them bowed in unison and subconsciously glanced at Ye Chen. Their eyes lingered on his animal robe for a moment, then they quickly looked away.
Cui Cheng glanced at Ye Chen awkwardly and said, "Normally, not many people come here. They are all undisciplined. I will teach them a lesson later. Boss Xu and the others are waiting for you in the hall. There is no need to bother with these little people."
Ye Chen nodded without any fluctuation in his expression, and followed his lead and walked in.
After they went in, the four guards relaxed their tense bodies, sighed, and leaned against the gate, chatting with each other.
After entering the gate, there is a straight road down three steps, leading directly to the hall. On both sides of the hall, there are two side halls for entertaining guests. The three buildings are in an embrace shape, with a small open space in the middle. This city is made entirely of metal, and every part can be changed at will, such as raising a metal wall on the ground or adding a few more steps, all of which are easy and do not require any manpower.
The three of them walked all the way to the hall. Cui Fu walked over first, pushed open the door, and made a gesture to Ye Chen to invite him in.
Ye Chen stepped in and saw that the hall was brightly lit. There was a rectangular metal table in the middle. There were seven or eight figures surrounding the table, including two women. One had an ordinary look, her hair was braided, and she was wearing a coarse cloth dress. The shells of insect monsters were inlaid on her chest, back, shoulders and other parts of her body to provide a certain degree of defense.
The other one had a sexy figure, wearing a fiery red tights, fair skin, a soft leather armor with black fur, and black shorts that tightly wrapped her hips. She leaned on a chair with her long legs raised, which was quite eye-catching. But what was a pity was that there was a shocking scratch on the side of her delicate and beautiful face. One could imagine how close this woman had come to death!
The rest of the men were either strong and rough in appearance or handsome and gentle as jade. Only the occasional coldness in their eyes betrayed the smiles on their lips.
Sitting at the front of the rectangular metal table were two figures, Xu Tianguo and Huang Tianci.
As Ye Chen walked in, everyone stopped talking, turned around, and cast their eyes on him. Some were curious, some were indifferent, and some were indifferent. At the top, Xu Tianguo's eyes lit up, and he quickly stood up and walked towards Ye Chen, saying excitedly: "You are finally back!"
Ye Chen nodded and said, "We were delayed for a while in the wild."
Xu Tianguo smiled and said, "I'm glad you came back safely. We're waiting for you. Come and take a seat." Then he took Ye Chen to the top two seats and ordered the servant who was waiting for orders, "Move another chair over!"
The young servant nodded quickly, ran to the side and moved a metal chair over, looking at Ye Chen with some curiosity in his eyes. He had never seen Xu Tianguo so affectionate to others.
Ye Chen didn't take it seriously and sat there openly.
"Boss Xu, is this the VIP you were talking about?" A handsome young man, leaning on a chair with his legs crossed, looked at Ye Chen with an evil smile.
Xu Tianguo's face darkened, and he looked at the young man, feeling somewhat helpless. If it were a truly peaceful time, those high-ranking officials would never make such rude moves, and at least they would wait until he finished introducing himself before speaking. But now, the so-called high-ranking officials sitting in this hall were only powerful, and had no idea about etiquette, the way of communication, the posture of shaking hands, the etiquette of clinking glasses, etc. They were just a group of strong ordinary people!
Xu Tianguo coughed lightly and said to everyone present: "This is Ye Chen, the founder of our Guangming Guild and the general of Huaxia Base City! Welcome everyone!" As he said that, he took the lead in clapping.
However, everyone below did not move. They just crossed their arms and watched calmly.
Xu Tianguo looked a little embarrassed and explained to Ye Chen, "We were so tight on time that we didn't arrange a welcoming team. I'm really sorry." Ye Chen shook his head and said, "It's okay. Thank you for your hard work during this period."
Xu Tianguo nodded awkwardly and sat down.
At this time, the young man who had spoken earlier looked at Ye Chen with a strong smile and said, "I didn't expect that the founder of our guild is actually a general in the base city. Nice to meet you!"
"Haha..." Another handsome young man, with an imposing manner, leaned back in his chair, looked at Ye Chen lazily, and said, "Excuse me, Founder, are you a general or a lieutenant general? Don't tell me you are only a major general, haha."
Ye Chen nodded slightly and said, "You guessed right."
Everyone was slightly stunned. They didn't expect that Ye Chen could remain calm and talk calmly in the face of such provocation. They couldn't help but frown slightly.
Xu Tianguo was filled with shame and said to Ye Chen, "I'm sorry, this is all my fault. They are so outspoken."
"It's okay." Ye Chen patted his shoulder and said, "You have done a great job. In just a dozen days, you have established the guild and also involved the commercial market. This is beyond my expectations."
Xu Tianguo smiled bitterly.
Seeing that Ye Chen was not angry at all, the people below lost interest one by one. They looked at him with some contempt, then looked down at their palms, or scratched their nails, or put their hands on their heads, leaned back in their chairs, crossed their legs, and squinted their eyes comfortably.
Ye Chen seemed to have seen nothing. He tilted his head and asked Xu Tianguo: "How many members are there in the guild at present?"
Xu Tianguo looked at Ye Chen's face without any anger. For some reason, his mind trembled a little. He said quickly: "Currently, there are 6042 ordinary members, most of whom are ordinary people. There are 10 who have reached level 1 fighters, 82 who have reached level 5 fighters, and only 16 who have reached level 10."
Ye Chen nodded and asked, "How are member positions allocated?"
Xu Tianguo said truthfully: "Those who have not reached level 1 are classified as ordinary members. The next level is the third-tier members, level 5 is the second-tier members, and level 10 is the first-tier members. Everyone present is above level 15 and belongs to the hall master level."
There is no mistake in the poem, post, content, and read the book on 6, 9, and bar!
Ye Chen thought for a moment and said, "Have you raised the recruitment requirements?"
Xu Tianguo smiled bitterly and said, "Not yet. I am considering discussing this with them."
Ye Chen waved his hand and said, "There is no need to waste time on this. Just do as I say. Only those who can display level 10 combat power by themselves will be recruited. I will improve their benefits and increase their rewards later."
Xu Tianguo was surprised and said, "You have funds."
Ye Chen nodded.
"Hehe..." The handsome young man leaning on the chair beside him suddenly laughed. Xu Tianguo frowned and said, "Zhou Gao, what are you laughing at?"
The man named Zhou Gao smiled, looked at Ye Chen mockingly, and said, "I laugh at you for being too arrogant. Who do you think you are? One person can exert 10 points of combat power. Who can achieve this condition? Can you do it? This is simply a dream!"
Xu Tianguo choked for a moment, then fell silent. He really couldn't achieve that. With his combat experience, he could only exert 7 points of combat power by himself, which was already extremely high.
At this moment, Ye Chen suddenly turned his head to look at the man named Zhou Gao and asked, "Who made you laugh?"
Zhou Gao was stunned for a moment, then sneered and said, "Don't I even have the right to laugh? You are just a running dog of Huaxia Base City, a major general-level general. What qualifications do you have to manage us?"
The others nodded and looked at Ye Chen mockingly. Having reached their level, they were extremely powerful, so how could they accept being controlled by others?
"Qualifications..." Ye Chen chewed on it for a while, then stood up, stepped onto the table, stepped on the rectangular metal desk, and walked towards Zhou Gao step by step under the gaze of everyone. He came to the desk in front of Zhou Gao, looked down at him, and said indifferently: "You don't accept it?"
Zhou Gao sat on the chair, looking at Ye Chen standing on the table in front of him, his smile slowly faded, and he said coldly: "Don't think that just because you are the founder of the guild, you want us to obey your orders!"
"In that case, what use do I have for you?" Ye Chen's eyes gradually became cold. He said lightly, stomped his foot, turned over and kicked Zhou Gao in the head.
Zhou Gao was shocked. He didn't expect Ye Chen to dare to attack him. But soon, a sneer appeared in his heart. He had reached the highest level of physical fitness. Coupled with his rich combat experience, even many major generals in the base city were not his opponents. He raised his head back to avoid the kick. He touched the ground with his toes and slid back several feet. As soon as he stood still, he was about to fight back.
Ye Chen suddenly stood in front of him like a ghost and stretched out his hand to pinch his throat. This hand was as fast as lightning. Before he could react, his throat was pinched and his body was lifted up.
