Chapter 141 Mysterious Guest
Upon hearing Lie Yunhu's request, Ye Chen frowned and said, "Tiger Commander, I'm afraid I cannot agree to your request."
“I have my own things to do, and I don’t like being constrained, besides, I have no interest in teaching people,”
"However, if you can produce another unmarked coin, then I might reluctantly agree."
Upon hearing Ye Chen's words, the people around him looked at him with even greater surprise.
This is an instructor in the Crimson Gold Army, a position that countless people dream of.
Even if it's only for a month, once you have this connection, you'll be able to do whatever you want in Wucheng.
Lie Yunhu wasn't particularly surprised that Ye Chen rejected him, but he had already considered it in his heart.
“Brother Ye, I know this is a bit difficult for you, but you can see my current situation.”
"If you go into high-intensity training again, you might have health problems again, which would be even more troublesome for Brother Ye."
"Moreover, my Crimson Gold Army is very easy to lead. They are all very obedient. I have faith in your abilities, Brother Ye. You are more than capable of teaching them."
Thinking back to Ye Chen's previous battle with that Soul Hook, and the strength he displayed while healing me, they were all formidable opponents.
Moreover, he was extremely envious of Ye Chen's previous technique of concealing his aura, which even he couldn't detect.
If his Crimson Gold Army could learn even a little bit of his techniques, their overall combat strength would probably double.
After all, the characteristics of the Crimson Gold Army are that they are fierce in attack and good at breaking through, but they are also easily surrounded.
If they can better conceal themselves, the Crimson Gold Army's chances of survival will be greatly increased if they are surrounded.
When Ye Chen saw Lie Yunhu trying to get close to him, he knew that Lie Yunhu had designs on him. Ye Chen naturally didn't fall for it and cupped his hands, saying, "Thank you for your kindness, General Hu, but I really don't have the ability to teach them."
As Ye Chen turned to leave, Lie Yunhu, as if acting like a rogue, grabbed Ye Chen's arm and then put his arm around Ye Chen's shoulder.
She whispered in Ye Chen's ear, "If a month isn't enough, how about half a month?"
"As long as you teach them for half a month, how much they learn is up to them."
"Brother Ye, what do you think of my Crimson Gold Manor?"
Ye Chen frowned upon hearing this, wondering what Lie Yunhu was up to.
"Your Crimson Gold Manor is so-so. Although it can't compare to our Heavenly Dragon Palace's palace, it's still passable."
Hearing Ye Chen's words, Lie Yunhu was speechless for a moment. Suppressing the urge to curse, Lie Yunhu said, "How about this, as long as Brother Ye agrees to be my instructor for those bastards for ten days."
"How about I consider this manor as my tuition fee?"
Hearing this, Ye Chen looked at Lie Yunhu with some surprise. You should know that this manor is top-notch in Wu City, both in terms of location and size.
Its value is definitely no less than 5 billion, and with the added value of its status and position, it could be as high as 10 billion.
Ten billion in ten days, that's a daily wage of one billion. Ye Chen was quite impressed by Lie Yunhu's boldness with such a large sum of money.
After thinking for a moment, Ye Chen said, "Tiger Commander, since you've put it this way, it would seem ungrateful of me to refuse."
"It's settled, ten days. I won't do it even one more day," Ye Chen said seriously, looking at Lie Yunhu.
Upon hearing Ye Chen's agreement, Lie Yunhu quickly nodded and said, "I promise it will only be for ten days. You can leave when the time comes."
The two spoke softly, and Lie Yunhu even deliberately muted the sound, so to outsiders it appeared as if they were talking with their arms around each other's shoulders.
But they couldn't hear the specifics, they only heard this sentence: "You leave when it's time."
Those around him were completely bewildered, but Ye Chen seemed to have thought of something and said, "Tiger Commander, your wine is quite good. Do you have any more? If so, give me some to take with me."
Upon hearing this, Lie Yunhu's expression twitched. That was a fifty-year-old vintage, a top-quality wine.
It contains a large amount of medicinal herbs and precious tonics, so even martial artists at the Grandmaster level can benefit from its health-strengthening effects.
Every year, the military region provides special supplies to the chiefs of staff of all departments. There are only so many of these supplies, and once they're gone, they're gone forever.
Lie Yunhu himself didn't have many hobbies. His two main interests were leading troops into battle and drinking to his heart's content. He would squander the special supplies he received almost every few days.
This special supply was preserved because of his health condition, although Lie Yunhu was reluctant to part with it.
But since Ye Chen had already said all that, Lie Yunhu gritted his teeth and said, "Since Brother Ye likes it, I have some more. I'll have someone take those two bottles back for Brother Ye to try."
As he spoke, Lie Yunhu looked at Qingwei beside him and told him with a pained expression to go to the wine cellar to get some wine.
Seeing Lie Yunhu's pained expression, Ye Chen found it amusing. A man who was fearless in the face of life and death was showing such a girlish attitude for a few bottles of wine.
……
Inside the Chijin Manor, after several rounds of dishes and drinks, the banquet was drawing to a close.
The atmosphere inside remained lively, with guests clinking glasses and exchanging toasts, but they kept glancing towards the door from time to time.
They were all thinking and waiting, hoping that Tiger General would show up when he was done with his work.
Unfortunately, even at this point, Lie Yunhu still hadn't shown up, leaving many guests feeling somewhat disappointed.
Sun Fugui, his face reeking of alcohol, said, "Ruoyu, I've already made arrangements."
"I heard that besides the Crimson Gold War God, there is another distinguished guest today, and the Crimson Gold War God treats that guest with the utmost respect."
"You'll come with me in a bit. Let's go to the backyard first. Maybe we'll not only see the Crimson Gold War God, but also that mysterious guest."
Upon hearing this, Ji Ruoyu also showed some curiosity. Although she disliked Sun Fugui's appearance, she endured it in order to see Lie Yunhu and the mysterious guest.
Nodding, he followed Sun Fugui towards the backyard of the Crimson Gold Villa.
Upon reaching the backyard gate, the two soldiers immediately raised their guns and aimed when they saw the newcomers.
Sun Fugui was sobered up by the murderous aura and was almost scared to death. He quickly raised his hand and said, "I am Sun Fugui. I have arranged with Sun Qiwen and Dr. Sun. I am his cousin who came to see you."
The two crimson-gold wolf guards, with their sharp eyes, sized up Sun Fugui and Ji Ruoyu.
The Crimson Gold Wolf Guard on the left picked up the walkie-talkie and said a few words.
"Martial law is in effect now. No one is allowed to enter, not even Tiger Commander's nephew!"
Hearing this, Sun Fugui felt a little embarrassed. He had already made his boast, and it would be embarrassing if he were blocked here.
Just then, a fat man with a build that was seven-tenths similar to Sun Fugui walked briskly over, wearing a white coat.
"Fugui, you arrived so quickly. Something has happened on my end."
Upon seeing the visitor, Sun Fugui exclaimed excitedly, "This is my cousin, Sun Qiwen. He is the deputy director of the Red Gold Army's medical department and has some connections within the Red Gold Army."
"With my uncle here, I guarantee you'll see the Crimson Gold War God today."
As he spoke, Sun Fugui's face was full of pride, as if he, not his uncle, was the one working as a military doctor.
Sun Qiwen frowned and said, "Fugui, today's situation is special. This backyard is under martial law, and outsiders are not allowed to enter. Even I cannot break the rules."
Upon hearing this, Sun Fugui's face stiffened again, and embarrassment was practically written all over his face.
Sun Qiwen glanced at Ji Ruoyu beside him, then, as if struck by a sudden thought, changed the subject and said, "How about this, when Tiger General is seeing off his distinguished guest, I'll arrange a seat for the two of you. You should be able to see Tiger General without any problem."
Upon hearing this, Sun Fugui's face immediately lit up with joy, and Ji Ruoyu's eyes also showed some excitement.
The thought of being able to see the Crimson Gold War God in person made the trip worthwhile.
Just then, a figure emerged from the backyard villa, carrying two jars of wine in one hand and with the other hand in his pocket, looking nonchalant.
"Huh? How did he get inside?"
Upon seeing the person who came out, Ji Ruoyu and Sun Fugui were both filled with surprise. Wasn't it supposed to be a state of martial law? Weren't outsiders not allowed to enter?
How did Ye Chen get in?
Suddenly, Sun Fugui's eyes lit up, and he pointed at Ye Chen angrily, shouting, "Stop! Since you dare to trespass into the backyard, Uncle, quickly seize him!"
Ji Ruoyu also realized what was happening, and his expression changed immediately. He never expected that Ye Chen would be so bold as to come to the Crimson Gold Manor to steal wine.
