The Strongest Dandy in the City-Chapter 525: Following Young Master Ye Leads to Meaty Rewards

Ye Chenfeng led Wang Li and over seventy members of the Soldier King Group away from the Soldier King Base. He first asked Wang Li and the others to find a place to settle down because his uncle, Ye Dongjian, would be getting married in a few days. The task of training Wang Li and the others into an indomitable team would have to be postponed for a while. After all, with Ye Dongjian’s wedding coming up, Ye Chenfeng, as a nephew, was bound to be very busy.

Wang Li and the rest of the over seventy members of the Soldier King Group were now considered to have left the Soldier King Group and become Ye Chenfeng’s men. Ye Chenfeng had always been very generous with his own people. He took out a bank card from his pocket and handed it to Wang Li, saying, "Wang Li, there are twenty million in this card. First, arrange for the brothers to find a place to stay. With me, Ye Chenfeng, you won’t have to worry about money. If anyone urgently needs money, just let me know."

Wang Li did not take the bank card from Ye Chenfeng. The treatment they received in the Soldier King Group had always been very good, but twenty million was still a huge sum for them. They chose to leave the Soldier King Group to follow Ye Chenfeng mainly for three reasons: First, Wu Guotian had handed the command of the Soldier King Group to Ye Chenfeng; second, the new commander of the Soldier King Group, Song Feng, was utterly incompetent; third, they truly admired and respected Ye Chenfeng’s strength.

Seeing that Wang Li did not take the bank card, a look of admiration appeared in Ye Chenfeng’s eyes. He stuffed the bank card directly into Wang Li’s pocket, told him the PIN, and said, "Wang Li, when you were in the Soldier King Group, you had salaries every month, right? Now that you have left the Soldier King Group, are you going to stop living? I know many of you have families. Consider this twenty million as your first salary! Remember, I, Ye Chenfeng, am not short of money. I won’t be stingy with my own people—money is just a number to me, so take this twenty million and keep it with peace of mind."

Indeed, Ye Chenfeng was not wrong. Li Pangzi, in charge of Tengtian Pharmaceutical Factory, and Monkey, managing Innovative Technology Internet Company, could make Ye Chenfeng several billion a year. As these two enterprises continued to develop and expand, Ye Chenfeng’s wealth would only grow more and more, to the point where he couldn’t spend it all in this lifetime. So, twenty million was truly nothing but a drop in the bucket for him now.

Wang Li knew that what Ye Chenfeng said was true. They still had to go on with their lives after leaving the Soldier King Group, especially those who already had wives and children. But wasn’t twenty million a bit too much? However, seeing Ye Chenfeng’s insistent look, Wang Li no longer protested. After all, from now on, they were going to follow Ye Chenfeng.

"Well, everyone just wait for my notice! But, you’d better be mentally prepared. I plan to train you into super experts thoroughly. Each of your strengths should increase by at least five times your current level. If you have good natural talents, you can increase even more than five times your strength. You all should know if you want to make huge improvements, you have to go through hell-like training, so everyone can take this time to relax." With that, Ye Chenfeng showed a clean smile to Wang Li and the others before getting into Wu Kunming’s military jeep and driving away.

Wang Li and the seventy-odd men looked at the military jeep growing smaller in the distance, their faces blank, their breathing ragged. They knew their strength had reached a bottleneck and might be stuck there for life. Ye Chenfeng had actually said he could improve each of their strengths by at least five times? What did that mean?

For a moment, all seventy-plus former members of the Soldier King Group were excited. Including Wang Li, their faces flushed, and some, overcome with emotion, clenched their fists. A member of the Soldier King Group with a trembling voice asked, "Brother Li, am I hearing things? Did Young Master Ye say he could improve our strength by at least five times?"

Wang Li did not respond, but another member of the Soldier King Group spoke up, "Damn it, have you seen how strong Young Master Ye is? He’s a powerhouse who could single-handedly sweep through our entire Soldier King Group. What’s so surprising about him enabling us to increase our strength by five times? It seems we’ve chosen the right person to follow. If we had stayed in the Soldier King Group, not only would we have to be bossed around by that trash Song Feng, but our strength would also stagnate. Just thinking about it feels suffocating."

"Do I even need to say it? Look at how Young Master Ye handed us twenty million at once, and he can also help us break through our bottlenecks and improve our strength. From now on, I swear I’ll follow Young Master Ye, no matter what. Whoever dares to slander Young Master Ye, I’ll be the first to settle the score with them."

"That goes without saying! We’re no longer members of the Soldier King Group. We don’t belong to any national department either. In short, following Young Master Ye will bring us good fortune."

...

The seventy-plus former members of the Soldier King Group were all brimming with excitement, their spirited discussions sending saliva flying. They were truly thrilled at the prospect of further strengthening their abilities, multiplying their strength, not just by a little bit. Wasn’t this exactly what they had been pursuing all along?

In the military jeep driven by Wu Kunming, the cheeky Wu Jie sat next to Ye Chenfeng, his eyes gleaming as he asked, "Brother-in-law, you just gave them twenty million at once! Are you really that rich?"

"Xiaojie, just spit it out quickly; don’t beat around the bush," Ye Chenfeng could tell that Wu Jie was hedging.

"Brother-in-law, the thing is, I want to buy a car, but nobody in the family agrees. You know how pitifully small my monthly allowance is. Plus, now that I am studying in Capital City, having my own car would definitely make things more convenient," Wu Jie said, looking at Ye Chenfeng with hopeful eyes.

Ye Chenfeng slapped Wu Jie’s head lightly and said, "Is that all? I haven’t given you any gifts so far. One of these days, I’ll go with you to buy a car. No matter which one you like, I’ll buy it for you."

"Brother-in-law, you’re truly a man among men! You’re so awesome," Wu Jie danced around in excitement.

Wu Kunming, in the driver’s seat, and Ye Dongjian, in the passenger seat, were inwardly worried about whether Ye Chenfeng’s assaulting Song Feng would blow up into a big issue, especially since Song Feng was installed by high command as the leader of the Soldier King Group.

However, Song Feng’s time as the commander of the Soldier King Group was too damn humiliating. He was beaten to a pulp on his first day on the job, and a big chunk of the Soldier King Group’s members quit right away. He’s probably the most pitiful commander in the history of the Soldier King Group.

When Wu Kunming and Ye Dongjian heard the conversation between Ye Chenfeng and Wu Jie, they immediately perked up, completely forgetting about the Song Feng matter. They both knew their own incomes were extremely limited, and their eyes shone with excitement.

Ye Dongjian was the first to speak up, "Chenfeng, your little uncle here has his eye on a car too. Don’t you think you should show some respect to your elder?"

"Chenfeng, look at this old piece of junk I’ve been driving for years. Isn’t it about time for a new one?" Wu Kunming added.

Wu Jie looked at them in disdain and raised his middle finger, "You two have no shame, do you? You’re both Chenfeng’s elders, totally losing face for us men."

Feeling ridiculed by Wu Jie, Ye Dongjian and Wu Kunming indeed flushed with embarrassment. Just as Ye Dongjian was about to say something, his cellphone started ringing. It was Ning Minyan calling, and he quickly answered, "Min Yan, is something wrong?"

Ning Minyan was livid, her voice many decibels higher, "Ye Dongjian, do you even want to marry me anymore? You’re asking me if something’s wrong? Didn’t we agree that you would come with me to try on wedding dresses today? I’ve waited for you at the dress shop for so long, and you haven’t even shown your face?"

Only then did Ye Dongjian remember the appointment. It seems he really did drink too much last night. He hurriedly and cautiously made his excuses, "Min Yan, I’m sorry, so sorry. I’m already on my way, right? I promise I’ll get to the dress shop within half an hour. Just wait for me a bit longer."

"Fine, Ye Dongjian, if you don’t show up within half an hour, you’ll have to face the consequences yourself." Ning Minyan was clearly fed up waiting for Ye Dongjian for quite a while.
