Dalilang and Xiao Linlang gave up their opponent and returned to Zhongshan Wolf. They found that he was already dead. They looked at Chen Dadan in horror and asked, "How did you plot against the boss?"
Chen Dabing said calmly, "I... I am a princess. How can I go out without a weapon to protect myself? You have two choices: kneel down and surrender, or follow your boss to death."
Xiong Er and Xiao Qian's morale was greatly boosted. They said, "Choose quickly, surrender or die."
"I'm going to surrender, but a real man would rather die than surrender."
Dalilang stood up angrily and wanted to rush towards Chen Dadan, but Xiao Linlang grabbed him and said, "We surrender."
Dalilang said, "Little sister, the boss has been so kind to us, how can we be so greedy and afraid of death?"
Xiao Linlang said firmly, "Brother, listen to me. The master's cultivation is far superior to yours and mine. He is dead. If we don't surrender, we will die."
Dalilang wanted to say something, but he opened his mouth for a long time without uttering a single word.
Little Linlang knelt on one knee and said, "I am willing to submit to Princess Daji and serve her till death. I will be loyal to her forever."
The group of little demons behind her looked at each other in bewilderment, then knelt down in unsteady voices, saying, "We are willing to submit to Princess Daji and swear to serve her until death, with unwavering loyalty."
Dalilang's face was filled with helplessness. Finally, he knelt down and said, "I am willing to surrender to Princess Daji and serve her till death. I will be loyal to her forever."
Chen Dabing looked at Xiao Linlang and said, "I know what you're thinking. You want to pretend to surrender to me first, and then find a chance to avenge your boss, right?"
Xiao Linlang's expression changed, and she said, "Absolutely not. I admire the princess's divine power and surrender loyally."
Chen Dabing laughed and said, "It doesn't matter whether he's loyal or not. I need people right now. Since you've surrendered, take me to take over the Zhongshan Wolf's sphere of influence!"
The sphere of influence of the Zhongshan Wolf was in the south of Langao Villa. With this acquisition, the sphere of influence of Langao Villa immediately expanded three times. Because the Zhongshan Wolf was stronger, its sphere of influence was naturally larger.
As the sphere of influence expands, Wolf Ao Villa will attract more herbalists.
Speaking of which, there is a constant flow of herbalists in the Abyss Forest, mainly for these precious medicinal herbs.
Precious medicinal herbs such as Blood Spirit Ginseng have some characteristics. First, they are difficult to transplant and cannot survive once dug out of the soil. Second, only those that are older can be used to make elixirs. Otherwise, those that are not mature are worthless and are poisonous if used as food. The last characteristic is that after they mature, the medicinal herbs also become spiritual. Of course, they are unwilling to be picked and will hide themselves when they find danger.
Due to these characteristics, although there are many herbalists in the Abyss Forest, there is no end to the supply of herbs. The herbs seen everywhere on the road are all immature and useless to pick. For a mature blood ginseng, herbalists may need to wait for several days before they can pick it.
This requires experienced professional herbalists who first discover the traces of mature blood ginseng through various means, and then adopt a wait-and-see approach, waiting for the blood ginseng to appear before picking it, because blood ginseng has a fatal flaw, which is that it cannot leave the root system. No matter how long it hides, there will always be a time when its skills cool down.
The thing that herbalists fear most during their time of waiting is being attacked by monsters. After all, the abyss forest is the monsters' territory, and human cultivators are regarded as blood food in the eyes of monsters, who can increase their cultivation by eating them.
Therefore, if there is a safe zone deep in the abyss forest for herbalists to settle down, it will be very convenient. Even if they need to pay taxes, all herbalists will be very willing to settle down here.
In addition, the food, clothing, housing and transportation of the herbalists, as well as the trading of precious medicinal materials, account for the bulk of the profits.
As a modern person, Chen Dadan has heard a story like this: a gold mine was discovered in a certain place, so many people took their tools and went there to pan for gold, but the ones who made the most money were not the gold diggers, but the people who did business there.
Of course, since it is a business, a large amount of investment is required in the early stage. The tens of thousands of spirit stones that Chen Dadan brought are almost used up.
To recruit the monsters and restrain them from attacking the herbalists, you have to pay them wages. Developing the safe zone and building civil engineering also requires money. Opening a business in the safe zone in the future will require a large amount of spirit stones.
"It seems I can't stay in Tianya Haijiao City and accompany beautiful girls all day long." The little fox Daji said to herself in a bold tone: "Now I have to make money. Although reselling alchemy is a way to make money, it comes in too slowly. It's hard to quench thirst with distant water. It's better to attract investment."
The next moment, Chen Dabing, who was in Tianya Haijiao City, opened his eyes and said to Nan Huanuo, who was meditating beside him, "Let's go to Yuexi County and borrow some money from our old friend, Princess Yuexi."
Nan Huanuo said, "Sir, can't you make money? You can easily earn 100,000 a month."
Chen Dabao shook his head and said, "A monthly income of 100,000 is nothing. There's a place called Douyin in my hometown where the average monthly income is one million. Let's go and find a rich woman."
Nan Huanuo was reluctant to go find a rich woman, but she did whatever her master said. After packing up, she flew on the flying sword. With Chen Dadan holding her slender waist, she flew into the air and flew towards Yuexi County.
In Yuexi County, Prince Yuexi's Mansion, Prince Yuexi is entertaining distinguished guests, accompanied by Junior Sister Haitang. The guests are an old man and a young man.
"Princess Yuexi has the demeanor of an empress. Seeing her today, I see her even more graceful and elegant. I admire her greatly."
"Prince Donglin is a martial arts master, and I admire him deeply!"
"Hahaha!" the old man said, "Since the Prince of Donglin County and the Prince of Yuexi County admire each other, why don't they become Taoist companions? Wouldn't it be wonderful if Donglin County and Yuexi County merged together and expanded their territory?"
Junior Sister Haitang said, "You old man are so tactless. They say they admire each other, but it's just a polite remark. In fact, they secretly want to swallow up each other's territory."
"Junior sister, please don't be rude. Venerable Dongyang is the elder of Prince Donglin, and his cultivation is far above yours." Princess Yuexi scolded.
"Hahaha!" The Prince of Donglin County said, "Junior Sister Haitang is right. Our two counties border each other, so friction is inevitable. However, today, I am expressing my utmost sincerity. Donglin County is willing to join Yuexi County, and I am willing to marry into her family."
Yuexi and Haitang were stunned when these words came out. Joining? Marrying into the wife's family?
Junior Sister Haitang said, "Wow! Senior Sister, you are so charming that even King Donglin has fallen in love with you."
Prince Yuexi said, "Prince Donglin, you are joking. Your Donglin County owns ten cities, and they are all rich and fertile. How could you possibly marry into my Yuexi County?"
Prince Donglin said, "I'm not joking. The reason I proposed marrying into the family is not only because I admire Prince Yuexi, but also to deal with the crisis of Emperor's death."
"The Emperor's Crisis?" Yue Xi asked in surprise, "Are you sure this crisis will happen?"
Prince Donglin nodded and said, "I have spies around Emperor Zhao who are sure that an imperial crisis will occur."
