Chapter 409 Learn to Add Money
At the entrance of Kunshan City.
"Little demon, today I'll teach you an important skill for camouflaging yourself and establishing yourself in the human world!" Ye Nanxiao shook his head, causing the Spirit Blossom Grass to sway its stamens as well.
"I've prepared my strategist!" the demon spirit said solemnly, his tone revealing barely concealed excitement.
He was the only candidate selected by Ye Nanxiao for the human world infiltration project, so how could he not be happy?
"The first step in disguising yourself as human is to understand the three fundamental principles of doing things!"
"And I sum it up as 'it smells so good,' double standards, and extra money!" Ye Nanxiao said, looking up.
"What? Things?" The demon spirit was completely confused; he had never heard of these three words before.
"Could this be another one of your own creations, strategist?"
Upon hearing this, Ye Nanxiao said with even greater pride, "That's right! It was created by me!"
"Can you use a normal way of saying this?" Yao Ling covered his face. He had been following Ye Nanxiao for so long that he had picked up some of Ye Nanxiao's unserious ways.
"Normally speaking, it means knowing the true value and turning back, learning the truth and changing one's tune, and always having a scale in one's heart that can be measured by value." Ye Nanxiao's tone began to lower.
"No one can escape the scope of these three laws, not even the emperor!"
The demon nodded as if it understood, then leaned against a shadowy spot by the city gate, minimizing its presence.
He likes to hide in the shadows when he's thinking; it's just his nature.
"Humans are not as pure as animals. The word 'interest' permeates the entire human world, leading to the emergence of these three points. Of course, there are also many humans with extremely strong will who can deeply hide these three points and not show weakness due to external stimulation."
"Take this situation as an example. You've been targeted by two families. Your unintentional actions have shown them your value and an opportunity to exploit you. So, what kind of opportunity do you think they've seen?" Ye Nanxiao asked.
"My strength is such that if I can be won over, I will be a formidable force!" the demon spirit said without hesitation.
"This is just one aspect; behind it, there are many more interests you are unaware of," Ye Nanxiao said meaningfully.
"The underlying interests?" The demon spirit's mind was stirred by Ye Nanxiao's words.
"Just like the Soul Beast races, the emergence of a patriarch-level Soul Beast will make other covetous Soul Beast races wary! They will also have the ability to expand their own race's living space and the strength to protect their own race, as well as more rights to choose a mate!" The demon spirit blurted out all his knowledge.
"Yes, but not entirely."
Ye Nanxiao fanned the grass leaves and gently patted the demon spirit's face.
"Behind every point of interest lies a vast network of interests. Expanding the scope of interests and gaining more benefits is one of the benefits that the old man blocking the road wants. If he can successfully win you over, it also means that he has made a contribution to the family and can gain merit, in exchange for status, resources, or benefits for his descendants. The right to choose a spouse is the benefit that young lady simply wants. Her family will also have a powerful son-in-law as a result, and at the same time, she will have both of the two major benefits mentioned earlier."
"This is the network of interests behind the points of interest, which involves many things and people. Therefore, as a spy gathering intelligence for Di Tian, you must be well aware of the existence of these points of interest and the interests involved behind them. When necessary, you must also take action to sever the interest lines that could lead to chain reactions and adverse consequences."
"What? It's all about profit." The demon spirit's brain was a little confused, its mind filled with the word "profit" that Ye Nanxiao had mentioned.
"This is the first major thing you need to realize when you integrate into the human world."
"And one of the corresponding solutions is to offer more money!" Ye Nanxiao said.
"?"
Ye Nanxiao leaped up, floating in front of the demon spirit, and said earnestly, "This isn't just a coping method, it's an ultimate skill! Mastering this skill will make you invincible!"
"real?"
"Really! When has the strategist ever lied to you?"
The demon spirit thought for a moment, and it seemed that Ye Nanxiao might not have lied to her, so she nodded firmly.
Ye Nanxiao breathed a sigh of relief. Sometimes, a white lie is necessary.
Fortunately, he can fool the demon spirit now, and the demon spirit's current intelligence won't be able to see through it.
Fortunately, the demon spirit is still his student and hasn't grown up yet, so he can still trick the demon spirit into running errands.
"Let me tell you, this so-called 'money-adding skill' was passed down from a powerful being! Our ancestor! His name was Ding Xiu! You must remember that!"
The Lord of Kunshan City had already heard about the extraordinary respect the Fu family's eldest elder showed to this young man. He immediately abandoned his concubine who was still clinging to him, casually put on a piece of clothing, and ran to the city gate to wait early.
Fu Zhong, the eldest elder of the Fu family, is a peak Soul Douluo. This is known to all the gangs in Kunshan City. The city lord of Kunshan City has tried to win over the Fu family more than once, but all his attempts have failed.
The Fu family is a typical merchant family and rarely considers the overall interests of Kunshan City in their plans.
The Fu family, who run large businesses, would naturally not be interested in a small city like Kunshan.
The Zhang family, also being part of the business world, is no exception.
Just like how you don't put all your eggs in one basket.
The city lord of Kunshan was well aware of this, but he did not deliberately expose it. After all, his strength was only that of an ordinary Soul Saint, and being assigned to be the city lord of a city was already a great favor.
However, the fact that Fu Zhong of the Fu family would be so respectful to a mysterious young man means that this young man is either a reclusive expert or a member of a powerful family.
Regardless of the outcome, as long as we can gain even the slightest advantage, Kunshan City will reap immense benefits!
Kunshan City is just a small city, far from being a medium-sized city. If they can gain the approval of that mysterious young man, they will have a chance to be promoted to a medium-sized city.
After being promoted to a medium-sized city, both the resources and the number of resident Soul Masters will at least double compared to before, and he, as the city lord, will naturally benefit from it.
Having been a city lord for many years, he figured these ideas out almost instantly when he got out of bed.
He must win over that mysterious boy!
The Lord of Kunshan City was not the only one with the same idea.
The Zhang family of Kunshan occupied one-third of the territory of Kunshan City.
Zhang Qingling was the girl who had felt fond of the demon spirit and given her the mandarin duck handkerchief.
"Qingling! You young man have such foresight! You've brought home a golden son-in-law for the Zhang family!"
A middle-aged man with unkempt hair and beard, acting wildly, was gesturing wildly as he spoke.
Zhang Qingling, seated at the head of the left side of the hall, blushed and, upon hearing the boisterous middle-aged man's words, said shyly, "Second Grandfather! He... he hasn't agreed to Qingling's request yet!"
"Haha, you accepted the handkerchief Qingling offered, but that kid still disagrees. Grandpa will tie him up and bring him back! In this city, no one dares to disrespect the Zhang family!" The old man sitting at the head of the table said domineeringly.
"Brother, you're the best! If you ask me, I'll go to the city gate right now and bring that kid back! There's no time like the present for such good news!" the boisterous middle-aged man exclaimed with elation.
"Second Grandpa!" Zhang Qingling immediately stood up, stamped her foot and said coquettishly, but the joy in her eyes could not be hidden no matter what.
From the moment she first saw the demon spirit, she was captivated by its alluring and sinister aura.
Such a charming young man! Even though Zhang Qingling had traveled all over the country and seen countless geniuses, she had never seen such a charming and charismatic young man.
The boy's roguish smile was etched into her mind like a brand, leading her to give him the handkerchief she had woven day and night without much thought.
"They don't even know my name! They don't know what kind of person I am!" Zhang Qingling said shyly, picking up a handkerchief to cover half of her face, giving her a beautiful, veiled look.
"It's alright, Qingling! Our Zhang family is a great family! Countless young talents would kill to enter the Zhang family just to beg for your hand! We don't even need to say anything; the whole of Kunshan City must be buzzing with excitement right now!" The unrestrained middle-aged man became more and more excited as he thought about it, and couldn't help but slam his hand on the table next to him.
The table suddenly emitted an unbearable creaking sound, becoming shaky and precarious, as if it would break at any moment.
"Once that lad enters the city, I'll send someone to invite him over! No! I'll go myself!"
"I suppose the Zhang family gave me, Zhang Shen, a great deal of face by going there!" Zhang Shen laughed loudly.
"Second brother! Don't be too reckless then!" Zhang Jin, the head of the Zhang family and Zhang Qingling's grandfather, instructed.
"Alright, alright! Don't worry about me, brother!" Zhang Shen laughed loudly and slammed his hand on the table next to him again.
The table took another blow, lost its balance, and tilted to one side.
At this moment, a burly man in leather armor entered. "Master, the First Elder of the Fu family has approached the person Miss has taken a liking to! And it seems they were discussing things in detail at the city gate! Things may have changed!"
"What! The Fu family has been fighting with my Zhang family all along! We've been defeated year after year, but I never expected them to still be so greedy!" Zhang Jin said angrily.
Zhang Shen, who had been laughing loudly, was now silent. He slammed his hand on the table next to him, smashed it, and flew out the door.
Three breaths later, Zhang Shen's voice echoed throughout the courtyard.
"Someone! Gather the men!"
Zhang Jin shook his head. How come his second brother's personality was the complete opposite of his name?
"Young Master!" Zhang Qingling twisted her two small hands together, afraid that the man she had just chosen would run away.
The demon spirit is far superior to all her suitors!
"No! Grandpa! I want to go and see!" Zhang Qingling ran out the door.
The demon spirit, who was leaning against the shadow of the city gate listening to Ye Nanxiao's lecture, had already become the protagonist of the turmoil before even entering the city and taking its first step.
