When the first ray of dawn illuminated Nan Qing City, the fire gradually extinguished. The leaders of large and small mercenary groups in Nan Qing City were gathered in the Ice Wolf base at this moment. Most of them had bruises and swollen faces, and some even
It was brought in.
Although there were quite a few people present, they were all silent, not even a single person was breathing heavily. Everyone's eyes were full of fear, and they didn't even dare to look at the witch.
Ji Tianqing was commanding several mercenary group leaders to build a platform, and the Ice Wolf was among them. He was a prominent figure in Nanqing City the night before, but today he had to carry a log and work there in disgrace.
There were many warrior-level experts working, and a simple stage was set up in a blink of an eye. Ji Tianqing directed someone to place a large chair brought from nowhere on the stage, and then waved to Qianye: "Come up!"
Qianye came on stage numbly, and was pushed into a chair by Ji Tianqing, facing the mercenary leaders of all sizes in the audience.
Ji Tianqing took a step back, stood behind Qianye, and said loudly: "From today on, what is the name of our mercenary group?"
"It's sunny." Song Zining replied expressionlessly.
"No, of course it's the Seventh Young Master!"
"Bah! I don't want such a bad mercenary group!"
"You have to have it even if you don't want it!"
"That's Qianye's mercenary group, why should I?"
Ji Tianqing slapped her forehead and said, "Yes! Let's call it Qianye Mercenary Group!"
"No." Qianye finally couldn't bear it anymore.
After a lot of noise, it was finally decided to let the Dark Fire mercenary group reappear in a neutral place. The name of this mercenary group was "Dark Fire".
Ji Tianqing immediately raised her voice and said: "From now on, you are all members of the Dark Fire Mercenary Group. I will give you half a day to handle everything and report back in the evening. Whoever dares not to come will be responsible for the consequences. Anyway, I will set an example."
You’ve seen it!”
The mercenary leaders were all obedient, how could anyone dare to say no?
Ji Tianqing was very satisfied, patted the back of the chair and said: "This Qianye will be the leader of the mercenary group from now on."
She pointed to herself again and said: "I am the adjutant of the regiment leader, do you all remember?"
All the leaders bowed together and said loudly: "Adjutant!"
This lineup, this momentum, is as if Qianye is Ji Tianqing's adjutant. The Seventh Young Master next to him couldn't sit still, took a step forward, and said loudly: "This Young Master Song Zining will be the chief military advisor of the mercenary group!"
All the leaders looked at each other, no one had heard of Song Zining's name, and they didn't know where this person came from.
Ji Tianqing was very proud and shouted: "Let's all disperse and go back to work! Meet here on time at six o'clock in the evening!"
"Yes! Adjutant!" the leaders responded loudly.
In the blink of an eye, the courtyard was empty, leaving only the Ice Wolf and a few senior deacons from the original Ice Wolf Mercenary Group. Qianye sat on the high platform, silent, like a statue, looking at the empty courtyard.
From the beginning to the end, he had nothing to do with him. Apart from carrying the title of group leader, he had no other role. None of the leaders even looked at him, as if the group leader was nothing.
In fact, we know that there are many mercenaries in Qianye, and we also know to some extent about his achievements. However, the status of these mercenaries in Nanqing City is really low in the mercenary world. Even the Ice Wolf only has a few people who can participate in the battle of the Black Forest. Qianye
They had only heard of Ye's strength, but had never seen it with their own eyes. Ji Tianqing had just beaten each of them severely, and could send seven or eight people flying with one wave of his palm. In comparison, naturally
I am more afraid of Ji Tianqing.
The next step was to renovate the courtyard. Anyway, with the strong men led by the Ice Wolf as coolies, the construction process was extremely fast. Qianye stayed on site to supervise the work, while Song Zining went to rent a nearby hotel as a temporary residence.
Ji Tianqing ran around to see if the mercenary leaders dared to disobey her orders and be lazy secretly and disobey her orders.
So busy, it was already evening in the blink of an eye. All the bosses, big and small, returned to the Ice Wolf base one after another, but only two of them didn't arrive.
The leaders who arrived at the scene all carried with them the roster of the mercenary group, the list of property and equipment, and the land deed of the residence. This is like losing all their money. It is better to say that it is being recruited than being robbed. However, it is better to lose one's wealth than to lose one's life. Yesterday
In the evening, Ji Tianqing had taught them this truth.
Ji Tianqing casually named a few bosses and counted them by category. She herself divided these people into several groups and divided them into ranks casually. They were just level one, two, and three deacons, and each person could command different soldiers and horses.
Her grouping seems careless, but in fact it is quite mysterious. The group with strength and obedience has the highest status. The group with no strength but obedience comes next, the group with strength is not very obedient, and finally the group with strength is not very obedient.
Yes, he was beaten straight to the bottom, and he was only a little taller than an ordinary mercenary.
The last group of people were naturally unconvinced, but the one who took the lead was slapped to death by Ji Tianqing, and no one dared to say another word. At this time, they finally understood that maybe Ji Tianqing was waiting for them to jump out.
, otherwise there is no excuse to kill?
After noisy until midnight, the new Dark Fire Mercenary Group actually took shape. The upper and lower structure, the composition of high-level deacons, how to dismantle and reorganize the various mercenary groups, and the allocation of stations were completed one by one. Finally, it appeared in Qianye
What is in front of us is a behemoth with as many as 4,000 members, fighting nearly ten people. In terms of strength alone, it far exceeds the Dark Fire of that day.
With so many complicated affairs, it would take ten and a half months of work for others. But in Ji Tianqing's hands, big and small matters flowed by like water, without any hindrance. She was not bragging, considering the adjutant's talent.
Looking at the entire empire, there may not be many people who can compare with her.
This is partly because of Ji Tianqing's talent, and partly because of her arbitrary actions. All the leaders are frightened, and no one dares to say no to anything she decides.
From the beginning to the end, Qianye just watched quietly from the side without any chance to speak, so he just sat there all night.
After the plan was decided, Ji Tianqing sent everyone back to count the supplies, hand over the station and reorganize the troops. This process would take a few days anyway.
After finally getting an opening, many leaders of mercenary groups approached the city lord's mansion through various channels, hoping that Ji Rui could come out to seek justice. Regardless of the size of the mercenary group, these people used to work in their own three-acre area.
A person who sits in separate places and is the boss behind closed doors. How can he bear the sudden addition of three emperors above his head?
However, Ji Rui stayed behind closed doors and did not see anyone. He turned a blind eye to what happened at the door of the city lord's mansion and pretended that it had not happened.
In this way, everyone understood what Ji Rui meant: he could not afford to offend these three people.
In an instant, all the leaders, big and small, suddenly felt that it was getting dark.
After losing Ji Rui as a big supporter, some people who were unwilling to accept it and relied on their own strength took their cronies, rolled up their clothes, and quietly slipped out of Nan Qingcheng when the moon was dark and the wind was high. Most of the mercenary groups were self-aware.
, understood that he had no ability to survive outside Nanqing City, so he swallowed his anger and accepted the fact that he was merged into the Dark Fire and had to surrender.
For those mercenary groups who wanted to leave, Ji Tianqing did not deliberately make things difficult and let them leave. These people would always have second thoughts if they stayed, so it was better to throw them out.
In the past few days, Song Zining and Ji Tianqing were not idle. Instead, they negotiated with each business firm to renegotiate cooperation. The largest financial source of the large and small mercenary groups in Nanqing City is to provide protection for these business firms. The security guards in the city are
Basically, a powerful mercenary group will send mercenaries to follow the caravan of a trading company and provide protection along the way. A stronger mercenary group will even accept combat missions, such as ambushing the caravan of a rival trading company.
Now that the Dark Fire has almost wiped out all the mercenaries in Nanqing City, it has become an unprecedented behemoth. Even Ji Rui is under pressure and cannot get ahead, so the negotiations with the trading company will naturally have to be restarted.
At the beginning, all the business owners were worried. Similar incidents had happened more than once. After a certain mercenary group dominated a place, they would often raise the price, increase the protection fee several times, or even hire the robbers themselves.
.This will only rob a lot of floating wealth. Trading companies will naturally avoid these places after suffering losses. And the mercenary group without financial resources will inevitably fall apart in the end, no matter how strong it appears.
There are many precedents, too numerous to mention. However, even if such mercenary groups disappear in the end, in the early stages of their evil deeds, those trading houses were the worst. Therefore, the leaders of the chamber of commerce are all worried and uneasy.
However, upon contact, the directors of the trading company were surprised to find that the Dark Fire Operation was completely different from other mercenary groups in the Neutral Land. Song Zining did not use his overwhelming power to raise prices wantonly and exploit the trading company, but instead lowered prices on many miscellaneous sporadic projects.
, and merged many items that were charged separately in the past. After comprehensive calculation, the cost that the commercial bank needs to pay has been reduced a lot.
This move greatly surprised the directors of the commercial bank, but no one would refuse such a good thing. In addition to the surprise, many people were secretly planning to consider increasing investment in Nan Qingcheng when the situation became clear.
Next, Song Zining came up with another plan. Anyone who sets up a weapons workshop, a rare material store, or a high-end aerospace ship equipment in Nan Qingcheng will provide mercenary services at half price. Even after the workshop is built,
He is also willing to invest and occupy 20% of the shares.
This made several directors of large commercial banks excited, and they quickly asked for details. Although many small commercial banks lacked strength, they had some access to aerospace equipment, so they were also concerned about the standards of "high-end aerospace equipment". After all, in
In a neutral place, all types of arms are hard currency.
Song Zining was already prepared and immediately took out a piece of information and distributed it.
Everyone looked at it, and most of them looked disappointed, but there were also quite a few people who were thoughtful. Song Zining's standards were indeed a bit high. All types of equipment must reach the level of the empire's second-level combat readiness fleet.
This kind of shipboard equipment is not common in neutral lands, but it is not completely impossible to open up a path to Yongye or the Empire.
