"This is our clan's investment in the Three Generals' Camps, to help the generals win the first victory and gain glory!"

Liu Er couldn't help but take a deep breath and looked at Ning Zhuo's storage bag eagerly. He saw that there were still a lot of spirit stones in the bag!

He immediately retracted his gaze, grabbed Ning Zhuo's arm, and said gratefully: "It must be that the military advisor has tried his best to persuade your family to provide such financial support. How could I, Liu Er, have such merits and abilities to receive such help from your family and military advisor?"

Ning Zhuo grabbed Liu Er's arm in return: "General, we hit it off right away, and the longer we spend together, the deeper our feelings will be."

"The general is friendly, loyal to his emperor and patriotic, and brave in fighting the enemy. He is truly a responsible man!"

“I admire it deeply.”

"In my humble opinion, I wanted to help for free. But the old ancestor didn't know the general well, and said he wanted 30% of the spoils."

Liu Er was stunned for a moment: "30%?"

Ning Zhuo had a helpless look on his face, as if thinking, "Young people are moved by righteous deeds and strive for their ideals, but the elders in their family are too secular."

Liu Er patted Ning Zhuo on the shoulder and said, "Don't even mention 30%, even if it's 60%, what's the problem?"

"It is only natural that your family should provide such a large amount of funding."

"But for now..."

"Alas, Military Advisor, you also know that when my Three Generals' Camp was first established, I had already promised the ownership of the spoils!"

"Where does 30% of the spoils come from?"

"Well... maybe you can deduct it from me, my second brother, and my third brother. But it may take some time before we can pay it back."

Ning Zhuo stretched out his hand and said with a smile: "I have also thought about this matter carefully on the way back."

"It's time to take back the spoils. Now is the best time."

Liu Er expressed his doubt: "Oh? I'd like to hear more about it."

Ning Zhuo explained, "After the ambush, our army re-stationed outside Canglin Immortal City. Many monks were making trouble and shouting that the treatment here was too low, and they wanted to leave the Three Generals Camp and go elsewhere."

Liu Er showed a guilty look: "It's because I am not talented enough and I am short of money, so I can't reward the meritorious officials. This is my fault!"

Ning Zhuo shook his head: "Giving ownership of the spoils to the soldiers is our greatest reward."

"However, there weren't many spoils to pick up during the ambush, and instead we lost a lot of soldiers. Many soldiers' magic weapons and other items were damaged to varying degrees, and they complained that the repair allowance we gave them was too little."

"So, the soldiers thought that this contract was too disadvantageous."

"This is actually a bet. It is in accordance with the rules to buy and leave."

"If it was an ambush and they had reaped a lot of rewards, there would never be such frequent disturbances."

"Plus, the White Jade Camp has started recruiting soldiers again. Although it has restrained itself, it is still wealthy. Many monks in the Three Generals Camp were attracted by the good conditions they offered. However, they were worried about being labeled as traitors and would be suspected and excluded if they joined other armies, so they used the name of making trouble to achieve their own goals."

Liu Er nodded, agreeing: "What the military advisor said makes a lot of sense!"

Ning Zhuo said: "Since they feel that this contract is very unfavorable, now is a good time to cancel this agreement."

"The reason why we made this promise before is that our military budget is tight, so we have to use this to attract monks to join the army."

"Now, we have more abundant funds, so we can raise the military pay to the standard level, or even higher than the first-line level."

"Don't forget, our Three Generals Battalion is the most outstanding army in the ambush."

"Combined with our battle record, I believe many monks will come to join the army."

Liu Er lowered his head and fell into deep thought.

After a moment, he raised his head and said, "This matter is of great importance and cannot be decided lightly. Military Advisor, let me go back and think about it, and then discuss it with my second and third brothers."

Ning Zhuo nodded, his face full of approval: "The general is far-sighted and thoughtful, and it is a blessing for the three armies. This is exactly what should be done."

The top of a distant mountain.

The old demon cultivator was sitting cross-legged on a rock, with a pool of blood beneath him.

Blood gushed out from the outside of his eye sockets and from the huge eyeballs between his eyebrows, and he looked miserable.

Almost every day, he would secretly observe the changes in the fortunes of the Three Generals' Camp, even if the cost was huge.

"Um?!"

The old demon cultivator's expression suddenly changed.

Then, the monkey's luck, symbolizing the Three Generals' Camp, suddenly formed a whirlwind with both its hands and feet.

The powerful monkey inspired the luck of the White Jade Camp and the Golden Halberd Army. The white jade gate plaque of the former rose higher and higher, while the light of the golden halberd of the latter became sharper and sharper.

Seeing that the situation was not good, the monkey immediately shrank back to its original size. At first glance, there was no change, but upon closer inspection, one could see that the monkey's aura had become more solid, lifelike, and lively.

"What's going on?"

"Why has Xiaoliu's luck suddenly increased so much?"

The old demon cultivator felt strange and worried: "The monkey retreated, which means Xiaoliu doesn't want to make a big fuss and confront Sun Gan of the Golden Halberd Army and Shuang Jing of the White Jade Camp head-on."

"This is not good. It doesn't match his fate."

The old demon cultivator came all the way here and took action personally just to safeguard the king's order and reduce all other variables.

Realizing that the situation was not right, he immediately sent a secret letter and flew into the camp of the three generals.

At this time, Liu Er was discussing with Guan Hong and Zhang Hei whether to take the opportunity to take back the ownership of the spoils.

Zhang Hei was the first to voice his opinion: "What the military advisor said is absolutely right! These monks are just trying to take advantage. There is almost no spoils this time, but they are making trouble. Why don't they think about the future when we will win a big victory and have rich spoils?"

"We have money now, so now is the best time to take back this power. If we don't act now, it will be too late!"

After Zhang Hei finished speaking, he stared at Liu Er.

Seeing Liu Er smiling and nodding to him repeatedly, Zhang Hei chuckled.

Liu Er sighed in his heart: "Third brother is reckless and straightforward, lacks thinking, and does not see the two disadvantages at all. It is best for him to stay by my side in future battles."

Liu Er looked at Guan Hong again.

Guan Hong combed his thick beard that reached down to his ankles and said, "After the ambush, I am more confident about the next battle."

"It will naturally be more beneficial for us if we can collect ownership of the spoils."

“But it cannot be enforced forcefully.”

"Once more resentment is created, rumors will surely arise to ruin the reputation of Big Brother and me, saying that we are dishonest."

"Even if these people accept the changes now, if we win a big victory in the future and the spoils are extremely rich, they will be uneasy and resentful, and may even turn away from us."

"Besides, we are gentlemen. Once we say something, we can't go back on it. We should keep our promises. Otherwise, I will look down on myself!"

The smile on Liu Er's face deepened a little.

Guan Hong pointed out one of the two disadvantages, which made Liu Er happy.

"My second brother is upright, loyal and trustworthy, and thinks deeply. It's already remarkable that he can think of this!"

Zhang Hei heard what Guan Hong said and said, "Why bother with these villains! We are doing things on our own, and it is too troublesome to consider all these things. Besides, people with talent and knowledge can tell the reputation of honesty at a glance. How can we do things if we have too many concerns?"

Liu Erxin sighed.

Zhang Hei looked at Liu Er and said, "Brother, tell me what to do. I will listen to you."

Liu Er was about to speak when he suddenly sensed the secret message, so he changed his words and said, "I'll think about it on my own. You two brothers can go and practice."

Not long after Guan and Zhang left the main tent, Liu Er also sneaked out secretly and came to the forest outside the military camp, where he met the old demon cultivator again.

"Teacher, you haven't left yet!" Liu Er bowed deeply and felt sincerely happy.

Then, with a puzzled look on his face, he asked with concern: "Teacher, you look unhappy. What troubles have you encountered? I will try my best to help you solve your problems."

The old demon cultivator had a pale face, which was caused by him always observing his luck and losing too much blood.

The blood loss here is not just ordinary blood, but his entire body's blood and even his life span! The old demon cultivator shook his head slightly, without explaining the cause of his injury, but directly asked Liu Er.

After a moment, the old man figured out the reason why Liu Er's luck was rising - Ning Zhuo.

"It turns out that Ning Zhuo is very wealthy and donated a large sum of money to the Three Generals' Camp."

"This boy is indeed a young talent. No wonder Liu Er is obsessed with him and pays special attention to him."

"However, there is no such child in Liu Er's prediction."

"This proves that this child will not continue to play an important role in his destiny as king."

"The military advisor that Liu Er relied on most in his life is still farming in Nandou Country."
