I Became the Legendary Emperor Throughout the Ages After I Started Giving Away My Territory-Chapter 17

Youre clearly trying to get something for nothing, wishful thinking! Lin Beifan cursed.

Am I wrong though?

Yaoyao urged, Look at your situation now. Even though youre rich, your country is under blockade. You cant even spend your money; its as good as not having any!

Your economy is under blockade, your country is small and the population is sparse, resources are scarce, and theres no other path but a slow demise! Moreover, the neighboring Mo Kingdom is coveting your land and has already assembled 400,000 troops, ready to attack at any moment!

It can be said that your Xia Kingdom is finished, and you, the reigning Emperor, are finished too! So, it would be better to use this money to buy yourself another chance at life, and I, Yaoyao, can ensure your survival!

Two million taels for a chance to save my life, youve made a good deal!

Lin Beifan declared loudly, I tell you, the Xia Kingdom will never perish, and neither will I! Under my rule, the Xia Kingdom will stand tall and continue to thrive!

Yaoyao was surprised, So confident? Do you really have a way to turn the tide against the wind?

Of course, I have a plan! Lin Beifan said with confidence.

Yaoyao became curious, What plan? Can you tell me about it?

Lin Beifan looked at Yaoyao with a smile: Yaoyao, you seem to have quite an extraordinary background!

Of course!

Yaoyao lifted her little head with pride: Could any ordinary small power raise someone as smart, cute, and resourceful as this Princess Yaoyao?

Lin Beifan then asked, How do you compare to those from noble families?

Yaoyaos face was full of disdain: They are not even worthy of being mentioned in the same breath as me!

I see. You must not be afraid of them, right? freew(e)bnovel.com

Yaoyao was even more dismissive: You should ask them if they are afraid of me instead!

I am relieved then!

Lin Beifan clapped his hands and said, Yaoyao, your people are also involved in business, right? I would like to make a deal with you. I want to use my banknotes to purchase goods from you. Would that be possible?

You want to do business with me? Yaoyao was baffled.

Yes, with enough resources and supplies, I am confident that we can win this war! Lin Beifan nodded.

Okay! But I want triple the price! Yaoyao said with a smile, holding up three fingers.

Youre taking advantage of a crisis! Lin Beifan exclaimed angrily.

You can think of it that way!

Yaoyao said proudly, You have no other choice now, you can only choose me!

Lin Beifan sighed deeply, heartbroken: Alas!

Why the sigh? Yaoyao asked, puzzled.

Lin Beifan said sorrowfully, I had thought that after fighting battles together and outwitting enemies, we could at least call ourselves friends! But it turns out were not even that. I always believed that what we had was a bond of affection, but in the end, its just business! Fine, if its three times the price, then three times it shall be. Even if it costs me, consider it a lesson for me to see you for who you really are!

Yaoyao suddenly panicked, feeling as though she was about to lose Lin Beifan, whom she somewhat considered a friend.

No, wait, I was just joking with you! Ill only charge you double the price, okay? Double is fine, right?

Lin Beifan sighed again, Yaoyao, dont trouble yourself! Even if its just double the price, its still an astronomical figure for me, and I cant afford it. Since you dont really want to help me, lets forget it and stick to the rules of business.

Its not trouble at all, not in the least. I really do want to help you!

Yaoyao became anxious. 50% more! Ill only charge you 50% more, okay? After all, there are costs to transporting goods!

Agreed, its a deal! Lin Beifan composed his face, where not a trace of sorrow could be seen anymore.

Yaoyao suddenly felt that she had been duped, but the words were already out, and there was no turning back.

She huffed, This time Ill consider it as helping you out, but if theres a chance to make money in the future, you cant forget about me!

Dont worry, Miss Yaoyao, youll definitely get your share of the benefits! Lin Beifan said with a smile.

Thats more like it!

Yaoyao pouted haughtily, Tell me what you want so I can go back and get ready!

Lin Beifan replied, Mainly food, the more the better! Besides food, we could also use some oil, sugar, cotton clothes, and the like. The more, the merrier!

No problem at all, wait for my good news!

Yaoyao took the 2 million taels of silver notes from Lin Beifan and left happily.

.

Not long after, she appeared on a perilous peak.

Atop the peak, there was a quiet residence.

Within the courtyard, a stunningly beautiful woman dressed in a purple robe was sitting cross-legged on a meditation cushion, her expression serene as if she was one with the universe, seemingly in the midst of cultivation.

At that moment, Yaoyao burst in, exuberantly exclaiming, Master, Master Ive earned 2 million taels on my trip out! And Ive also secured a big deal worth 2 million taels for the Holy Sect!

The breathtakingly beautiful woman opened her eyes and smiled, Yaoyao, youre being naughty again!
