With a wave of his hand, he could instantly kill a whole group. Such a powerful mage was definitely a rare treasure. Yun Zhongmu and the others had obviously kept Gu Fei in their minds for this reason. When they suddenly discovered an opportunity to get acquainted with him on the forum, they immediately traveled a long distance from Moonlit City.
"You've come all the way here. Don't you have to participate in the mercenary competition and the confrontation matches today?" You Ge greeted the three. Coming from Moonlit City would take at least two or three hours.
Yun Zhongmu laughed. "With the strength of our mercenary团 and guild, it won't have any impact even if three fewer people participate." He scanned the empty space being cleaned up in the tavern. "You're making such a big scene. Are a lot of people coming tonight?"
You Ge nodded.
Yun Zhongmu scanned the others again and asked, "Where's Jian Gui? Why don't I see him?" Jian Gui had truly fought alongside them in the battle of Moonlit City, and they were more familiar with each other.
"He has something to do and couldn't make it," You Ge said.
"Now that we're here, let's all have a drink together after this is over!" Yun Zhongmu said loudly.
Han Jia公子 was obviously the most willing to hear such a suggestion. However, he and Yun Zhongmu had had disputes in Moonlit City and didn't see eye to eye. Drinking also depended on who you were drinking with, otherwise it would be better to drink alone. Therefore, Han Jia公子, who should have readily agreed to this suggestion, didn't say a word.
The others let Yun Zhongmu shout and didn't comment. At this time, the leaders of various guilds and mercenary团s from Cloudend City began to appear in the tavern one after another. You Ge couldn't bother to pay attention to Yun Zhongmu and got up to greet the guests.
Greeting was actually secondary. While arranging for everyone to be seated, You Ge's focus was on collecting the fees first.
At this time, everyone reacted differently. Some handed over their money bags on the spot without saying anything, while others hesitated, worried that this was a scam and unwilling to act without seeing results. Still others, who liked to win people's hearts, immediately took the opportunity to make a show, handing over their money bags while shouting, "I trust you, You Ge, just because of your name."
Han Jia公子 realized at this time that the advertising effect was not just the buzz created by Jiu Dang Ge and Yun Mu guild these past two days. Just the news released by the intelligence expert You Ge was a living sign. You Ge's influence on the game forum was not to be underestimated.
You Ge was patiently persuading those who were unwilling to pay in advance. "Everyone here is a leader. If I cheat you all, how will I ever be able to get by in the future?"
Some thought this made sense and readily took out their money bags, but there were always some who stubbornly refused to pay.
In this situation, You Ge couldn't help but suspect whether the other party was the real scam. After all, although You Ge was the seller, he was in a weak position. Facing these leader-level figures, if they really shamelessly refused to pay afterwards, You Ge really couldn't do anything. After all, it was only 100 gold coins. It wouldn't be good to ask friends to gather and fight them just for 100 gold coins. It would be too embarrassing.
"What should I do if I encounter such people?" Han Jia公子 had anticipated this situation and had asked You Ge about it early on.
"Then I'll just have to ask them to leave," You Ge had replied.
At this time, facing a few who stubbornly refused to pay, You Ge said frankly, "The rule for today is to pay in advance. So many leaders have already paid. If you don't want to, wouldn't that be unfair to them? If you insist on not paying, then I'm sorry." As You Ge spoke, he made a gesture towards the door.
Of course, there were also those who were not easy to get along with among the few. They immediately jumped up, slammed the table, and started yelling at You Ge, while also inciting other leaders, complaining about how unreasonable the rule of collecting money before showing the goods was, and how they should join forces to protect their rights.
"What if someone jumps up and causes a commotion?" Han Jia公子 had also anticipated this type of person early on.
"If my price was 1000 gold coins, it would be very dangerous. But unfortunately, my price is only 100 gold coins, which is nothing to most leader-level figures. Those who jump up and yell for this little bit of money are just insignificant shrimps and are not worth worrying about," You Ge had replied.
The little shrimp who was trying to stir up public anger was jumping up and down, but the reaction was flat. Even You Ge was watching his performance with a smile. This person was indignant and was preparing to increase his instigation efforts when suddenly someone else slammed the table and stood up. He was pleased that his persuasion had finally had an effect, but he saw that this person was pointing at his nose and cursing, "It's so noisy. Who are you? Get out if you don't want to pay."
"Wuxie老大, how can you say that? Look, I'm just..." This person didn't have many people who knew him, but he knew all the leaders present clearly. He could call out the name of anyone who casually slammed the table and stood up.
Unfortunately, the other person didn't bother to listen to him. Not only this Wuxie, but other leaders also began to glare at him. Just as You Ge had said before, if he offended these leaders, how would he ever get by in the future? This person immediately shut his mouth when he saw that the situation was not right and slipped away from the tavern in disgrace.
Two of his comrades who were also unwilling to pay in advance also got up and left immediately, and the remaining few finally agreed to pay the 100 gold coins.
Although this matter was a small episode, it saved a lot of trouble for the subsequent work. Afterwards, if any players had doubts about paying 100 gold coins in advance, all the leaders would immediately glare at them. You Ge collected this money really happily.
Not only that, the leaders also thought that they had spent money to see this powerful mage. Then wouldn't the other guests in the tavern be getting a freebie? Thinking of this, all the glares shot towards the other guests in the tavern.
The onlookers had been watching for so long and had roughly understood a little. At least, if they wanted to stay in this tavern at this time, they needed to pay 100 gold coins. Everyone could see this clearly. So, without waiting for anyone to say anything, most of them took the initiative to get up and leave. There were also a few who were curious and didn't lack money, so they also threw 100 gold coins at You Ge, indicating that they wanted to stay and see what was going on. There were about a dozen such people, which was really an unexpected windfall. Zhan Wushang, who was hiding in the corner, was so happy that his mouth couldn't close. As for why he was hiding in the corner, it was because he was embarrassed by his own outfit and didn't want to show himself in front of everyone.
The situation in the venue stabilized, and the entire Little Thunder Tavern unexpectedly became the venue. Everyone rearranged their seats in a noisy manner, sitting comfortably and spaciously.
At this time, no one had entered the tavern for half a day. Although it was still some time before the time You Ge had notified in advance, some people couldn't help but ask You Ge if they could start early.
"There are still some who haven't arrived," You Ge smiled. "We'll start on time when the time comes. Everyone, have a few drinks first. I'll treat you all to the drinks."
The leaders didn't say anything more. A few drinks didn't excite them much. They had all spent 100 gold coins to sit here. What was the point of giving away some free drinks?
Just as they were waiting foolishly, the tavern door, which had been silent for a long time, was pushed open again. A warrior in dark black armor walked in silently. Some of those present recognized this person: Black Index Finger. The团长 of the largest mercenary团 in Cloudend City. This person didn't say much. After coming in, he found a place to sit down, put his money bag on the table, and let You Ge take it.
Just as everyone was whispering to each other, people suddenly arrived one after another, and they were all names that were quite popular in Cloudend City recently.
Silver Moon, with two brothers, also entered the tavern. When he saw You Ge and the others, he immediately greeted them warmly, "We meet so soon."
"You too..." You Ge was quite surprised. Silver Moon and Gu Fei could already be considered acquaintances. It didn't seem so necessary for him to be here.
But Silver Moon didn't say anything, paid the money, and sat down.
Then, four girls from Rebirth Crystal also came at once. July, Luo Luo, Fine Waist Dance, and Lie Lie entered the tavern together.
This organization made You Ge even more dizzy. How familiar were these people with Gu Fei! What were they doing here too?
After casually throwing 100 gold coins, Fine Waist Dance glanced at You Ge. "Let's see what you guys are up to!"
Following that, another mage and a thief from the same guild entered the tavern. Before You Ge could step forward to talk to them, Yu Tian Shenming had already jumped up. "What are you doing here!"
"A instant kill-level mage! Of course I want to get to know him." The mage smiled.
"You are?" You Ge stepped forward and asked.
"Drifting." The person replied, handing over his money bag.
There was immediately a commotion in the tavern. Unlike Fine Waist Dance, who had already fully revealed that she was in Cloudend City and had joined the Rebirth Crystal guild, not many people in Cloudend City knew about this mage Drifting. The leaders immediately became excited. This kind of person was also an object that should be recruited as a priority!
Even more people looked at Drifting and then at Fine Waist Dance, guessing whether there would be any sparks between these two members of the Five Little Strongest, but there was no communication between the two. Instead, Yu Tian Shenming jumped up and down to You Ge's side, pointing at Drifting's money bag and shouting, "Take it, take it quickly!"
Let him spend 100 gold coins and then find out that this person is Qian Li, whom he has known for a long time. Haha, great! Yu Tian Shenming was very perversely fantasizing in his heart.
After Drifting paid the money and sat down, someone else entered the tavern. An extremely beautiful girl came in and looked around, muttering, "I should have done this earlier," while taking out her wallet. Unexpectedly, several of the leaders stood up, pointed at this woman, and were about to pull out their weapons.
The girl was startled and woke up from a dream. "Oh, right, how can such a public method be suitable for me." While muttering, she had already fled in panic, leaving You Ge, who had stretched out his hand waiting to receive the money, at a loss.
Just as he was at a loss, the other door of the tavern was pushed open again. The president of the largest guild in Cloudend City, Sword Without Oath, had finally arrived. Behind him were his two partners, Reflection of Time and Wind Walker.
"Wow! There are so many people!" Sword Without Oath had the aura of a president of a large guild. He chose a position and sat down, throwing a money bag to You Ge. "Can we start?"
You Ge took it and nodded. "Wait a moment." After saying that, he had already sent a message to Gu Fei. "Come to Little Thunder Tavern!"
"Huh? What a coincidence? I was just about to go there!" Gu Fei replied.
