Fantasy World: Seducing The Heroine At The Start-Chapter 39: Hiring mercenaries

While Feng Yun ate the food, he pondered if he could use these mercenaries in some way. Although he has no use for them, they can be useful when he will expand his business. For example, Li Shixin had to go around in the Red Fort City to hire a team of guards when she opened the shop in the Red Fort City. Their strength was not bad either, at least in this region.

Now there was only one thing to consider, are they trustworthy? The trust was the main factor. He was not familiar with them, so he couldn’t trust them unless they signed a blood contract. He didn’t have many requirements, as long as they promised not to betray him.

Feng Yun pondered as he finished his food. After paying the bill, Feng Yun stood up and walked toward the mercenary group.

"Boss, he.. that senior is coming here." A member noticed Feng Yun and shouted, alerting the whole group. The leader hurriedly looked at right side and saw Feng Yun.

He hurriedly stood up from the chair and said respectfully, "Young Master." With him, other members of the group also stood up and greeted Feng Yun courteously, feeling slightly tensed in the presence of Feng Yun.

"Do you mind if I join? I would like to have a quick word with you." Feng Yun said with a soft smile.

The man was surprised slightly but responded quickly, "Young Master, please have a seat." Saying that, he offered Feng Yun his own seat.

Feng Yun nodded as he sat down on the chair, he looked at the nervous members and said, "You guys don’t have to be polite, sit down. I want to talk to you guys about something." Seeing their nervous expression, Feng Yun said calmly.

Neither he released his aura nor did he try to intimidate them. They had seen his strength in the forest, where he killed a spirit beast in a single strike, which left a shadow in their hearts.

The cultivation world always emphasized the supremacy of strength, Feng Yun was strong, so they were courteous.

The leader gestured for others to sit down as he sat down beside Feng Yun.

"How about a small intro, my name is Feng Yun." Feng Yun said softly as he looked at the leader.

"Young Master, my name is Wang Hansen, this is Min Sanniang, this is..." Wang Hansen who was the leader of the group started giving an intro. There were eight people in total, five men and three women in the group. Feng Yun nodded in acknowledgment.

"You guys are mercenaries, what exactly do you do?" Although he has a rough idea, he still asks.

"Mercenaries are a kind of independent groups to be hired upon contract. Sometimes, we go to the forest to hunt the monsters when there is nothing to do." Wang Hansen explained briefly.

"I am thinking of hiring a group of people as guards for my business, my family is expanding the business and we need men. If you are looking for a stable job for a long term, my offer is open for you. There will be fewer risks and good income, I don’t know if I can pay you more than your current income, but I can give something more valuable." Feng Yun said as he emphasized on the few words especially.

Hearing his words, the expression of the group changed slightly as they looked at each other silently.

Wang Hansen contemplated silently, Feng Yun’s deal was not bad, not only they would get higher pay, they didn’t have to take risks regularly to earn money. However, joining him means they would lose some freedom. This was not the first time, someone approached them to join a household, however, due to freedom restrictions they turned down the previous offers.

The prospect of joining a clan has both positive and negative aspects, as it offers a decent wage, a stable job, and a chance to get better cultivation resources but in return, they would lose their freedom as they have to pledge their loyalty to the clan.

This was something that he couldn’t decide himself, he could only look at others, silently asking for their opinion.

"Young master, you mentioned other benefits, can you explain a bit?" Wang Hansen looked at Feng Yun and asked respectfully.

"Other than decent income, you would also get a chance to see higher grade cultivation techniques and martial skills. Additionally, the Feng Clan also has many high grade alchemists, which means you get a chance to obtain high grade pills, boosting your cultivation. Naturally, all these additional benefits lie with your performance, if you perform your duty well, you will be compensated handsomely." Feng Yun said with a smile.

"And there are not many restrictions on your every movement either, and you guys will have the freedom to leave the job whenever you want. There is only one condition, and that is loyalty. As long as you guys remain loyal and do not bring any harm to the clan, you will find it to be the best decision of your life."

To cultivators, the most important thing was cultivation resources, especially high-grade resources that were even harder to obtain. That was why most rogue cultivators who came from poor backgrounds wished to join a high-ranking clan or sect where they could obtain high-grade resources.

"No hurry. You guys can take your time to think over my offer. I will be returning to Maple Leaf City soon. If you guys decide to accept my offer, come to the Feng Clan in Maple Leaf City." Saying that, Feng Yun got up and left.

After a while, Feng Yun arrived at the new shop. After stepping into the shop, he headed to the top floor to meet Li Shixin. freёnovelkiss.com

At this time, he saw Feng Xueyi who was coming downstairs. As their gaze met, Feng Xueyi briefly stopped, seeing his face the old adult scenes appeared in her mind, disturbing her thoughts.

"Hello Feng Xueyi." Seeing her dazed eyes, he smirked inwardly and said with a soft smile.

"Ah.. you.. you what are you doing here?" Feng Xueyi woke up from reverie and spoke in an unfriendly tone.

"What else, I want to meet Aunt." Feng Yun said as he shrugged his shoulder.

"Why do you meet her? Aunt is busy right now, you can tell me if you need anything." Hearing his words, Feng Xueyi reacted quickly, trying to stop him from meeting Li Shixin. Although She couldn’t confront Li Shixin, but she could stop him, at least that was she thought.

Feng Yun stared at her deeply, understanding her thoughts he chuckled and said, "Aunt said we are returning home soon, I came here to ask her about this." Saying that, Feng Yun moved past her and went to Li Shixin’s cabin. "I will see myself if she is busy or not."

Feng Xueyi wanted to stop him, but he ignored her. Feng Xueyi stomped her foot in anger and followed him to Li Shixin’s cabin.

As they entered Li Shixin’s cabin, he saw she was sitting on the chair on which they had sex a few days ago.

"Hello Aunt Shixin." Feng Yun greeted cheerfully.

Seeing Feng Yun, Li Shixin’s eyebrows creased slightly, she stared at him and said, "Where were you for three days? Did you go into the forest again?" She was about to lash out on him but held back after noticing Feng Xueyi who followed him behind.

Feng Yun could sense slight anger in her voice.

"Sorry, I was cultivating, forget sense of time." Feng Yun said. Li Shixin’s inspected his aura, which looked stronger than before. Thinking he was telling the truth, she let it go.

"Anyway, now you both are here, I have something to tell you. You both are returning to clan today." Li Shixin said.

"Hmm, why? Is something happened?" Feng Yun asked curiously.

"I don’t know, but this is the order of Patriarch, he sent a message for your return. And Feng Xueyi, you are tagging along with him." Li Shixin said.
