Here, the Lord said this is a good thing

Chapter 558: Tacit Understanding and Voting

Taking a train directly to the gate of Eternal Night City... Of course it is impossible.

Even if Ye He bought this train and contacted the Imperial Railway Bureau to customize the route, he could bring everyone to Eternal Night City in the most efficient way.

After traveling for three days and three nights, the train could only stop at a small town on the outskirts of the city dozens of kilometers away from Eternal Night.

This is the terminus of this train line. Further ahead is the former state of Angela, which was also the war zone where a rebellion was still taking place seven months ago!

Strictly speaking, the entire Principality of Angela, as a vassal state of the Empire, has long ceased to exist.

Even though the war was over and the Empire's army had completely crushed the rebellion in the principality, it had also completely destroyed the habitable areas of the territory.

The Sacred Heart City, the only large city in the Principality of Angelabon, was sent to the sky after a certain priest detonated a mechanism.

“See this road?”

Ye He got off the train and pointed to a bumpy dirt road ahead.

He explained to the members of the expedition team:

“About a hundred kilometers along this road, you will reach the former Sacred Heart City, now the Eternal Night City.

However, no one knows whether the villages and towns along the way are just ruins or have been occupied by dark creatures.

My suggestion is that you can wait for the Imperial Army to act together, yes, the Imperial Army!

It is their job to reclaim this territory. We, the citizens of the empire, can follow behind them with peace of mind, right?

In addition, the tavern in this town has been bought by me. From here to the City of Eternal Night, as long as there is a tavern, I will buy it!

With the proof of courage on the back of your left hand, you can enjoy a 50% discount on service in my tavern!

You're welcome!"

After saying that, Ye He prepared to take his people into the town first to complete the acquisition of the tavern and obtain some other basic services for the expedition team.

At this time, there were only three people left around Ye He, namely the Withered and Decayed Sisters and Selena.

Those monster-master subordinates have been sent out by Yehe one after another in the past three days. They will be responsible for purchasing the corresponding supplies in the cities along the railway and completing the "restocking" of the tavern that Yehe has just promised to the expedition team.

"Wait! Wait a minute, Mr. Ye He, you... aren't you going to lead us?"

Three days is enough time for these unruly, powerful and ambitious monster masters to work out a "boss".

In other words, he had to bite the bullet and call out to Yehe Don Quixote.

Don Quixote knew in his heart that Ye He would not care about their life or death, but if he had to blame anyone, he should blame himself for being “popular”!
He didn't know how, but it seemed like he just resolved a dispute between a few monster users?
Then, when he turned around, he became the representative elected to communicate with Yehe!
"Leader? No, no, no..."

Ye He smiled and shook his head at Don Quixote and the monster masters behind him. Before they could get angry, he asked them in a playful tone:

"I will definitely go into Evernight City ahead of time to find out what's going on. If there are monsters fighting me, can you handle it?"

When this question was asked, all the members of the expedition team, including Don Quixote and Geralt, were stunned for a moment.

Then cold sweat of relief immediately seeped out of many people's foreheads.

Yes! This priest is very powerful, but the monster he fights must also be powerful enough!

Are they capable of participating in a battle of that level? Just be thankful that they are not accidentally killed by the aftermath of the battle!
“So you’d better discuss it among yourselves, such as reallocating the team, discussing the appropriate ratio of team members, and completing the purchase of some combat supplies in my tavern later.

A train carrying supplies will arrive tonight. In addition to the supplies, there will be clergymen from the church stationed in the tavern to provide support for your healing.

In addition, I will also disclose all the information I know about the City of Eternal Night in the tavern.

My suggestion is that you can wait until I come back from Evernight City for the first time. I will try my best to provide you with a map showing the distribution of monsters in Evernight City. How about that? "

After Ye He said this, no member of the expedition team could say anything bad about Ye He anymore.

In a rush, they followed Ye He into the car. In fact, many people have realized in the past few days that they are short of support and supplies.

Ye He not only considered this issue for them, but was also very considerate and offered to give them all kinds of information about Eternal Night City for free.

Although Ye He was unwilling to lead them and was unwilling to be responsible for their life and death, the help he provided them was indeed a lot, which could be called conscientious!
“We have no complaints…thank you for everything you have done for us.”

Don Quixote looked at Ye He with complicated eyes, then bowed to Ye He on behalf of the expedition team.

Well, this is called being sold out by Yehe. You have to make money for Yehe and express your gratitude to Yehe!
Ye He smiled and turned away. He would not tell these people that the monster materials and various treasures they worked so hard to earn from the Eternal Night City would eventually be consumed in Ye He’s tavern due to various expenses!
Monopolizing war preparations and war profits, this is why Yehe is so "conscientious".

These monster masters might be good at fighting, but they know nothing about war, and have no idea how much money can be made from it!
Selena, who frequently looked at Ye He and even took the initiative to put her hand into Ye He's hand and held it, probably didn't know how much benefit Ye He, who suddenly "changed his nature", would get because of the efforts of these people!

Only the Withered and Decayed Sisters, who had received Ye He's orders long ago, and the monster-master subordinates, knew Ye He's real plan to make money.

"Relax, you...including you two sisters, you will never have the chance to step into the Eternal Night City."

The two sisters recalled what Ye He had said to them two mornings ago when he came back from the front carriage:
"There should be no one who doesn't know how to count, right? Very good! Later, I will set up a tavern that provides comprehensive services for those "great crusade teams" outside the City of Eternal Night!

All you need to do is to keep going back and forth to buy supplies, supply these taverns, and take turns staying in the tavern as a bartender, cashier, etc.

What you sisters need to do is to stay in these taverns and ensure their safety.

Don't worry, I will let my robot maids guard the periphery, you will be safe. At worst, you will receive the evacuation signal in advance.

I emphasize again, I don't need you to fight, and I don't need you to enter the City of Eternal Night.

Because when the currency they bring is used up, they will quickly use monster materials worth ten gold pounds to buy drinks that you may only buy at ten silver pounds!

Yes! It is just as you think, what we want to earn is their "income"!
Remember! Half of the tavern's net profit will be used as everyone's bonus!
So please try to smile more when providing service, yes, that's the kind of smile, hehe..."

When the sisters of withering and decaying thought of this, even the two of them who had less expression couldn't help but curl up the corners of their mouths.

This is a job... with a high income that they have never imagined, a well-deserved super "fat job"!
Afterwards, when the tavern was short of accounting staff, Selena was asked to help. Only then did she realize how much money Ye He made.

The purchase of the town tavern was completed quickly. With money as the main source and the fact that this marginal town had no income at all, the tavern owner simply accepted Ye He's cash.

"Can I hire you?" "What?"

After completing the purchase of the tavern, Ye He suddenly stopped the tavern owner who was about to leave, and offered him another job that he could not refuse.

Although the Withering and Decaying Sisters are powerful enough, they do not have the corresponding tavern management and coordination capabilities, so Yehe still needs a real tavern owner.

Ye He's ultimate goal is to open his tavern as close to the Eternal Night City as possible, within a distance that allows the entire tavern to be evacuated "safely".

Therefore, he needed all kinds of talents. He "used local resources" and hired all the labor force in the entire marginal town in almost one day.

Later, as Ye He said, an imperial army really set out and headed directly towards the original site of the Principality of Angelabon, gradually recovering the area!

Is Yehe a prophet?
No, it’s just that Yehe and the Empire have a tacit understanding.

Ye He knew a long time ago that the Principality of Angela was rich in various minerals and was one of the best sources of metal raw materials in the entire continent!

It was impossible for William IV to leave this "fertile land" that originally belonged to the empire unattended. The reason why the army did not come before was only because William IV knew the existence of the City of Eternal Night.

After Ye He destroyed the seal of this "Monster Kingdom", it became a bomb that would eventually explode.

Just imagine, if the empire had immediately recaptured this area after quelling the war... once the City of Eternal Night appeared, the manpower and material resources invested by the empire in this area would surely suffer a devastating blow.

So the empire simply ignores it for now!

It has been delayed until today, when Yehe brought over the expeditionary force that carried the fate curse of the Belmont family, and William Model IV began to send troops to recover the land.

But if William IV allowed Yehe to intervene, he would have to pay a price, so he acquiesced to Yehe's "tavern" business and told the army not to bother with Yehe or the punitive team.

Yehe made profits from the Eternal Night City through the expeditionary force, and William IV also made profits from the original mineral resources in the area through Yehe and the expeditionary force after conquering the Eternal Night City.

The two people did not need to talk to each other face to face, but they completed the current "win-win" cooperation model based on their understanding of each other.

Back to reality, in the tavern hall downstairs in Yehe Building, many monster masters were already extremely excited.

"Xinghe beer for six silver pounds a cup? The 50% discount Ye He promised... is it implemented now?"

The greedy monster excitedly took out money, ready to enjoy himself first.

"Praise Ye He! Did you see that? The army is coming! There are actually troops clearing the way for us!"

A monster pointed out the window excitedly, marveling at Ye He's ability to "foresee the future".

"The brilliance of a thousand stars is shining... Bishop, why are you here?"

There was also a monster user who discovered the Orthodox Church he believed in and actually sent the bishop of the nearest church over.

"Ahem! Dear guests!"

The tavern owner who took over his tavern again came down from upstairs holding the note that Ye He had instructed him to send.

He loudly announced the message on the note to the monster masters who were looking at him:

“Lord Ye He said that some of the battle supplies and materials are already on the way.

These supplies will be sold normally in every tavern in the future, and customers can also enjoy a half-price discount when purchasing these supplies! "

"Ohhhh!!! Praise Ye He!!!"

The ignorant people have not yet discovered Yehe’s purpose, and are only blindly celebrating their current gains.

As they traveled back and forth from Evernight City again and again, constantly consuming various supplies, they finally ran out of currency and had to exchange monster materials for supplies...

Yehe will let them know what it means to make a huge profit!
Ye He, who was standing in front of the window, drank the red wine in the glass, put down the glass, then turned and walked towards Selena who was reading a book in the room.

Selena hasn't had a good night's sleep in the past few days. She consumes a huge amount of physical energy every time she exercises with Ye He, and she couldn't sweat so much in the past few months.

Feeling Ye He approaching her, Selena's heartbeat quickened unconsciously, her fingers trembled slightly as she turned the pages, and she suddenly could not focus on the words on the pages.

Unfortunately...she just couldn't refuse Ye He!

Especially today, she felt that Ye He seemed to have "changed his character" a little, and was quite "humane" to the monster masters of the expedition team below.

……

When the army began to march towards the original site of the Principality of Angelabon, Ye He was also ready and was about to go to the City of Eternal Night to find out what was going on.

In the city of Eternal Night, on top of a majestic and towering tower, four witches of disaster, wearing different clothes and hair colors, but equally beautiful and charming, were sitting together around a small round table.

Except for [Prince Disorder] who still kept his "widow" attire, even [Prince Despicable] put on her normal attire, a pure white evening dress.

She also spoke first, announcing the agenda of the meeting to the other three Witches of Disaster:
"Then... this is our last vote on whether to join Yehe.

Does anyone have any other objections? "

"No."

The [Gloomy Prince], who had gray hair and looked very "cold", immediately responded to the [Despicable Prince].

The fiery red-haired [Duke of Extinction] anxiously nodded to [Duke of Despicableness] and urged him:

"Let's get started!"

[Lord Disorder] nodded quietly.

Seeing that no one had any objections, [Bie Zi Gong] spoke up:
"Okay, then...if you think we should join Ye He, please raise your hands."

[Princess Extinction] was the first to raise his arm, followed by [Princess Gloomy].

The two disaster witches who had never met Ye He raised their hands very decisively. They were actually the two among the four disaster witches who agreed to join Ye He.
