The words "Tumen" have been erased from the star gate and replaced with "Yumen".
If Lai Siyu didn't think "Lai Men" sounded bad, he wouldn't have changed the flags on the official ships to flags with the word "Yu".
The word "Yumen" shone brightly on the Star Gate, and the entire Star Gate Street was filled with flags with the word "Yu".
People from all over Xingmen Street came out to see who would be the new leader who could change the name of Tumen.
When they saw that it was a female cultivator with the cultivation level of an Immortal Emperor, they all sighed.
Hou Tu was quite considerate. She probably knew that Mu Lingxiao and Lai Siyu were new here and didn't know the rules and tricks, so she had already appointed a few trusted people to help manage the star gate.
That's quite efficient.
Lai Siyu was very satisfied with the Xingmen Mansion. Although it was a little small, it had pavilions, towers, waterside terraces and gardens, everything it needed.
It seems that the profit from this star gate is quite considerable!
There are still many servants from the Hou family in the mansion. Their master was killed by Lai Siyu and others. Now the whole yard is filled with people kneeling, and they are all trembling with fear, fearing that the new leader will kill them all.
This is not without precedent. After a dock robbery occurred in other places, it was common for the leader's mansion to be slaughtered.
It's not like they haven't heard of it.
This is understandable. If you don't get rid of the roots, the grass will grow again in the spring breeze.
What if among those who remain are the former sect leader’s confidants or descendants?
If we let him go, wouldn’t it be like letting a tiger return to the mountains and letting our enemy go?
So, everyone in the yard was terrified, and everyone felt that they had no hope of survival.
Lai Siyu was impatient to deal with these matters and just said to Fu Xin: "You can handle it yourself. If you don't understand anything, just ask Grandpa."
She wanted to train Fu Xin, so she handed over the servants in the yard to him.
Fu Xin had an idea. After consulting Gu Youcai, he said to the servants who were kneeling and showing off in the yard, "I'll give you a chance to live. You can redeem yourselves. Each of you only needs to pay 10,000 high-grade immortal crystals, and you can walk out of this door safely.
From now on, you will no longer be someone's slave!"
Fu Xin's voice sounded like thunder in the ears of these people.
Ten thousand high-grade immortal crystals are nothing to the old men in the Sect Master’s Mansion; they can easily afford it.
He is a third-rank official in front of the prime minister. Besides, Xingmen Street is a lucrative place. Working in the master's mansion, one can easily save tens of thousands of high-grade immortal crystals.
Besides, this means using immortal crystals to buy one’s life, who wouldn’t want to do that?
Immediately, most of the servants expressed their gratitude and paid out immortal crystals to redeem themselves.
Fu Xin kept his word and released all the servants who paid the ransom.
The few remaining servants looked on with envy as the monks who had paid the ransom walked out of the courtyard of the City Lord's Mansion safely. At the same time, they were worried because they could not pay such a large ransom.
"If you can't pay the ransom, then there's nothing we can do..."
Before Fu Xin finished speaking, the servants' faces turned pale with fear and they couldn't help wailing. They were afraid that they were going to die immediately.
"No, please, have mercy on us. We just joined the Sect Master's Mansion and don't have that many immortal crystals!"
"Yes, please let us go..."
"Wow...I don't want to die!"
Fu Xin waved his hands impatiently: "Who said I want you to die?"
When they heard that they would not be allowed to die, they immediately stopped crying.
Fu Xin said to Er Gou beside him, "Uncle Er Gou, send two men to take these people to the door and sell them. Ten thousand high-grade immortal crystals per person!"
"Come here, do you hear me? Bring these people over to the door and sell them! Ten thousand high-grade immortal crystals per person, not a penny less!"
"Yes! General!"
After finishing the work here, Fu Xin and Gu Youcai went to the main hall.
At this moment, the monks in charge of the handover and the monks sent by Houtu to help were all in the hall, introducing the situation of the star gate to Lai Siyu, Mu Lingxiao and others.
The Star Gate is where cultivators from the God Realm and countless Immortal Realms make money, and it is also the richest place to travel through the void.
Countless people would covet the Star Gate, whether they were cultivators who had improved their cultivation and felt they were already very powerful, or families that had risen through millions of years of tempering, they all wanted to own a Star Gate.
Owning a star gate is equivalent to owning endless resources for cultivation, and a star gate is easily coveted and robbed by others.
Therefore, after seizing a star gate, defense is the most important thing.
Lai Siyu asked Daxue to follow a god sent by Houtu to familiarize himself with the defense arrangements. Gu Youcai didn't want to be idle, so he also followed the steward sent by Houtu to familiarize himself with the internal affairs of the master's mansion and the affairs of the entire star gate.
This includes all the tedious things, including how many shops there are on Xingmen Street, how much each shop charges for rent, how ships are charged for entering and leaving the port's docks, and so on.
In order to make Gu Youcai feel more relaxed, Lai Siyu brought Shu Buqi out from Tianhuang to help him.
Fu Xin followed Daxue to learn about defense.
It can be said that the people sent to them by Hou Tu were quite useful, and Lai Siyu was grateful for his kindness.
The millions of ferocious beast soldiers now have a place to use their skills, they are used to garrison the star gate.
However, after the heavy snow came back, Lai Siyu made some adjustments to Zhu Fang's personnel, leaving only 500,000 ferocious beast soldiers. Then she got some giants, people from the Li people, witches, people from Qingyun City, Laijiazhuang, and some tribal warriors from the Fu tribe from Tianhuang, and mixed them into the ferocious beast soldiers to form an army of 700,000, and let Ergou and others lead the troops for training.
The ferocious beast soldiers are strong and tough, suitable for charging into battle. Then the witch clan cooperates with the curse technique, the human clan is responsible for assisting with illusion, the human cultivators from Qingyun City and Laijiazhuang are responsible for long-range attacks, and cultivators who are good at strategy are selected from the human cultivators to serve as deputy advisers to Daxue and others.
Once such an army is well-coordinated and develops a tacit understanding, its combat effectiveness will increase exponentially.
Although they had just occupied the Star Gate, Lai Siyu hoped that they would run into some ignorant people trying to seize the dock, so that she could hone her team.
As for the remaining 500,000 ferocious beast soldiers, Lai Siyu still adopted the same method, compiling them into an army of 700,000 and training them together with the army stationed at the star gate.
She thought that after training for a while, she would let them follow Mu Lingxiao to seize the Star Gate and treat it as a military parade.
Just after I finished arranging things here, Shu Buqi came to report that the owner of an inn had come with a generous gift.
It was a generous gift, and Lai Siyu liked it. After Shu Buqi brought the person in, he told her the reason for his visit.
It turned out that this boss was the owner of the inn where Lai Siyu booked a room.
After Mu Lingxiao helped Lai Siyu hide from the Star Gate, everyone rushed out, looking at the new sect leader.
When the innkeeper saw that it was Lai Siyu and others who captured the Star Gate, he almost peed himself and immediately ran to report to the boss.
How dare the boss accept the fairy crystals from the new sect leader? He quickly prepared a generous gift and returned the rent that Lai Siyu had given him.
