Chapter 847: Chapter 847
The young men laughed and played for a while before the Prince called Ye Liuyun over and started to talk about serious matters with him.
"It seems that there are a lot of spiritual stones given by the imperial court, but it is absolutely far from enough to raise a private army. You have to think about how to develop your territory. When you think about it, you can start to make plans. At that time, I can send troops to help you clean up your territory."
"Many thanks, Prince! I really have to think about how to develop my territory! I’ll have to trouble you when I have a plan!" Ye Liuyun thanked him repeatedly.
He wanted to develop his own power, but he didn’t expect to get a piece of land that belonged to him. It came at the right time.
Whether it was the private army or other forces, they both needed a large number of resources to support them. This was also the most important thing. freeweɓnovel.cøm
If he couldn’t solve the source of income, then everything will just be empty talk.
There were no mineral veins or ordinary people in his territory.
Therefore, he really needed to make a good plan.
"Don’t stand on ceremony with me. We’ll be neighbors in the future!"
Prince Liang was also quite happy. He was optimistic about Ye Liuyun, but he didn’t expect that Ye Liuyun would be able to obtain the title of nobility so quickly.
With the title of nobility issued by the dynasty, it meant that he could set up his own force legally.
He believed that with Ye Liuyun’s abilities, he would definitely be able to quickly develop it.
"A lot of credit as to why I can be valued by the dynasty goes to the prince! Without you, how can I be called Duke Yonglie? Although we are neighbors, I still have to rely on your support!"
Ye Liuyun also knew that the reason he was able to achieve something so quickly was largely due to the support of Prince Liang.
Without the secret support of Prince Liang, he didn’t even have the right to officially fight on the battlefield. Even if he could make contributions, he wouldn’t be valued by the Great Hsia Dynasty.
What’s more, his island was very close to Hawkline Island. In the future, he would need the support of Prince Liang, there might be a lot of cooperation!
"Well! It’s really rare!" Hearing this, Prince Liang was even happier.
"At such a young age, he’s already a marquis and had a territory but he’s neither arrogant nor impatient. He’s really a force to reckon with!"
He was very satisfied with Ye Liuyun’s attitude.
In his heart, he began to pay more and more attention to Ye Liuyun.
It was far more important to cultivate an external force than to train a subordinate. That was to say, he now had another alliance force.
Moreover, he felt that Ye Liuyun’s development in the Central Continent had just begun.
"Come on, put up a feast. Let’s celebrate together!"
As soon as Prince Liang was in a good mood, he asked someone to set up a banquet to celebrate for them.
Ye Liuyun had been celebrating with everyone in the Prince Mansion until late at night before returning to his residence.
For the next few days, he did not plan to leave. After receiving the prize from the dynasty, he could go to the Hidden Dragon Academy in time.
Lu Xiaoyao gave him three months, but only half a month had passed.
After Ye Liuyun returned, he found Captain One-eyed and the others and told them that he had been conferred the title of Marquis.
Captain One-eyed and the others didn’t expect that Ye Liuyun would actually become a marquis of the Great Hsia Dynasty.
"I think all of you should not go back. Anyway, Qinglian is also cultivating here. Why don’t you stay here and help me establish a territory?
Little Beggar and Yurou, it won’t be too late to go back when you are stronger! There are plenty of cultivation resources here. If you cultivate here, it will definitely be faster than going back!"
Captain One-eyed and the others, who were old, immediately agreed. They felt the same wherever they were.
Especially Captain One-eyed, he was more assured to be a little closer to his daughter.
Although the little beggar missed his mother a little, he had agreed to reach a higher realm.
Luo Yurou didn’t have much to worry about. On the contrary, she was willing to stay.
"I’ll stay and be your housekeeper, alright?" Luo Yurou volunteered.
"Ruyue is my housekeeper! Besides, it’s very dangerous to be my housekeeper. There are too many people who want to kill me! You’re still..." Ye Liuyun wanted to refuse as he didn’t want Luo Yurou to have any imagination about him.
"I’m not afraid. When Ruyue comes back, I’ll be her assistant!" Luo Yurou insisted.
"Well... All right then!"
Ye Liuyun thought for a moment. He didn’t necessarily have to stay here for long anyway, so he agreed.
Next, Ye Liuyun began discussing with Captain One-eyed and the others on how to develop his territory.
Ye Liuyun suggested, "In my opinion, Hawkline Island doesn’t have a great supply of ships. Why don’t we build a supply and trade station in the fief?"
"Yes, I think it’s a great idea!" Captain One-eyed said. "Hawkline Island’s supplies are indeed incomplete. If we proceed any further, we’ll reach the Central Continent. The post stations behind them are the Chaotic Devil Region. There’s indeed a lack of supplies.
"In addition, the Chaotic Devil Region is very chaotic, many people don’t dare to go there to stock up on supplies. Therefore, we need to sail for a long time before we can get the next supply." frёeωebɳovel.com
Ye Liuyun also said, "That’s right! Furthermore, I feel that all of you are very familiar with the warships. If you are in this industry, you should be able to develop very quickly!"
"Sigh, I still want to open a restaurant!" Li Sanniang said with a sigh.
Ye Liuyun smiled and said, "You have to open it! How can the supply point and trade station be missing a restaurant? I’ll build the largest restaurant for you. Sanniang, you will be the boss!"
"Really? Handsome boy, you’re so nice to me! Do you need me to give myself to you?" Li Sanniang was so excited that she almost wanted to pounce on him again. But Captain One-eyed was so quick that he grabbed her!
Captain One-eyed laughed and said, "Save it! Do you think he is short of women? All of them are younger and more beautiful than you!"
They laughed for a while and then returned to the main topic.
"Leave the matter of the ship supply station to us. You can rest assured. However, if you want to develop trade, you still need to have a certain amount of power to protect it!" One Eye reminded Ye Liuyun.
Of course, Ye Liuyun knew this as well. "Of course. Without strength, there’s nothing I can do. Therefore, I plan to borrow troops from Prince Liang first. At the same time, I’ll develop my own defensive power."
"I’m afraid it’ll be difficult to send him away next time!" Captain One-eyed said with some worry, "You also need to pay for borrowing troops. What if Prince Liang doesn’t withdraw the troops at that time?"
Ye Liuyun had never thought about this before. Now that he was reminded by Captain One-eyed, he couldn’t help but sigh that he was still inexperienced.
He had a good relationship with the Prince, but it didn’t mean that there would be no gap between them.
And if Prince Liang didn’t want to call back the troops he sent, Ye Liuyun would just be doing work for Prince Liang.
"Then what should we do with the defensive power?" Ye Liuyun was starting to worry as well.
Right now, he really didn’t have any good methods to protect his territory.
However, if he didn’t even have a normal defensive power, then it would be easy to rob him.
"I didn’t ask you to find it right away. You just have to know what to do!" Captain One-eyed comforted him.
