Chapter 134: City and Kingdom (1)
"Alright, the deed is mine now, you just watch. Money!" Ye Lang threw out those long-dormant contracts, land deeds and house deeds, and they were all tossed to one side, scaring Seventh Brother into using his rarely-used high-level skills to pick them all up.
"Keep the gold and silver coins for yourself, they're not worth much anyway. They don't have much value or use." Seventh Brother said nonchalantly, what he wanted was these assets, not just pure money.
"It's not that expensive, I don't know how much it is, but it's quite a lot!" Ye Lang said temptingly, wanting to make Seventh Brother come and ask him, with an air of offering a treasure.
"How much? Ten thousand or twenty thousand?" Seventh Brother said disdainfully.
"That time, I won a huge amount of gold coins from that Ling Fei Po, tens of thousands of them. To show my discontent, I made them exchange all the gold coins for me and give it to my little brother. I'm telling you, if I were to take out all these gold coins, it would be enough to crush all of you to death." Ye Lang said with a raised corner of his mouth, agreeing in a disdainful tone.
"Thirteen, brother was wrong, put those gold coins out and come crush me to death!" Seven Brother's eyes shone brightly as he stared at Ye Lang.
Tens of millions, this is just one time, and there are other things, isn't it said that at least hundreds of millions?
"You can't kill me, Seventh Aunt won't come looking for me to fight to the death, I'm not that stupid! I'm leaving, I'm going back to rest, being talked about for two days, didn't even get a wink of sleep." Ye Lang yawned and was ready to head back to the inn to catch some Z's.
"Where are you going?" Seventh Princess said at this time.
"Return to the inn, what's wrong?" Ye Lang was confused.
"Of course not, don't forget, you're now the little king of this place, and this is your palace." Forget it, let's just call it a mansion instead, this doesn't look like a palace at all. The Seventh Princess looked at the house and really couldn't bring herself to call it a palace.
"Oh, right, I'm the king here now. No, I don't want to be called a king. This broken place, what's it even called? A kingdom? We don't need a kingdom. From now on, let's just call it a city!" Ye Lang suddenly remembered that he had already won everything here. He could sleep wherever he wanted."
"What kind of city? What a weird name. And why 'city' instead of 'kingdom'? Wouldn't that make us subordinate to others?" someone asked.
"What city, I haven't thought of what it's called yet, so let's substitute for now." Ye Lang said, and this was also something that many people had already guessed.
"As for being restricted by others? Who says that cities are restricted by countries? We are cities that don't belong to any country, everything is decided by the city lord." Ye Lang's words left people somewhat bewildered.
"Isn't this just like a small kingdom? Many people expressed their confusion."
"It's different, a small kingdom is a country, while a city is just a city! This kind of city can have no borders, and it can make many people lose the sense of national boundaries. Naturally, many people will be willing to come to this city to do things that require freedom, such as trade." Yelang's words confused even more people, who didn't understand what he meant by these specific words.
However, some people understand, and from the sparkle of joy in their eyes, it can be known that they understand!!
"That's right, we are a city, a free city!! Strip away the national surface, remove the military, and establish a purely commercial city! Seventh Brother's eyes lit up, with an eager-to-try look, as if he wanted to see what this city would become in the future."
"Thirteen, you're truly a genius! If you were willing, you'd definitely become the king who dominates the continent!!" Seventh Brother and Third Brother both had high praise for Ye Lang, and it was all sincere.
"I don't want to! These are your things, I'm not familiar with this and have no interest in it! I'd rather be a prodigal son and go to sleep. It's been a long time since I met the girl in my dreams, I wonder if she'll be mad at me. Leaf Rong continues to yawn. Then randomly choose a room to sleep."
"Girl in your dreams, just go ahead and dream!" Ye Lan Yu, Qi Gong Zhu and others did not believe at all that Ye Lang's girl in his dreams was real.
But who would have known that this dream girl actually existed and chatted with Ye Lang every night, as long as Ye Lang had the time.
"Hey, little brother, you're running around recklessly without even knowing what's going on here. Let someone give you a good scolding first. Ye Lan Yu watched as Ye Lang walked far away. Only then did he remember that this was still an industry they had just taken over, and there were many things that needed to be sorted out."
"Alright, everyone go and get busy. From now on, this city is our new beginning! Following the Ye family tradition, let's call it Ye City! Inform the people of the Ye family, we're settling here." Ye Yi instructed, in order to prevent Ye Lang from coming up with a random name, and also not wanting to use the name Tianjiu City, he came up with one himself.
Yecheng, just like Yezhai, is a very common name, but it will definitely affect many people.
Of course, Ye Wing had also considered this, there were some non-Ye family members here, but this city was won by Ye Lang, it was Ye Lang's property, and not jointly owned with others, so there was no need to consider their feelings.
Besides, Ye Wing didn't think that these people would all stay together either. These were just fugitives who had escaped together, and it didn't mean they would work together in the future. They also had their own thoughts and their own paths.
As mentioned above, some people temporarily reside here and then go to develop their own way. The prospects of this city are currently unknown to everyone, but they can find new positions in other major countries, and good birds choose wood.
Of course, there are also some people who choose to stay and develop together with Ye Chengtian and others to fight for a new world. The last part of the people are tired of this struggle. Choose to hide, but most people choose to be here, because this will be a free city, there will be no such struggle.
It's also the reason why many eccentric people chose to settle here later, because the environment here is very much to their taste, they don't have to be bothered by others, nor do they have to humble themselves.
Ye Lang, in this way, inadvertently created a legendary city, although he only gave an idea, and didn't even participate in the creation of its prototype, yet later generations always thought it was him who created this city!!
Of course, Seventh Brother is also renowned for generations to come, praised by later generations, saying that if it weren't for him, Ye City wouldn't exist, he's a hero of his generation!!
And if Qigong knew about these sayings in later generations, he would definitely curse loudly.
The meritorious service is gone, the second brother has done the most things, but his reputation is not as high as that of the thirteen-year-old boy. Goddess, you are too biased, how can all the good things be given to the thirteen-year-old boy? Not leaving a bit for his seventh brother!!
Of course, at this time, Qī Gē would not know about this matter, he was just checking the assets of Yè Làng! ~!
