Chapter 473 Pressuring Ye Fan? I'm Really Awesome!
Tiankui Base had just restarted, and these family institutions came with their orders to cause trouble!
This was not just about expediting the orders!
Because the restart of Tiankui Base symbolized the restart of Divine Gate, it represented a shift in power inheritance. And Tiankui Base was the symbol of this power inheritance...
Ye Fan took control of Tiankui Base, thereby inheriting the strong connections within it. This included Prince Jin, the Qiu Family, the Miao Family, the Holy Envoy Organization, and countless other families, none of whom wished Ye Fan to solidify his position, nor did they want Ye Fan to fully control Tiankui Base.
The reason the vassal families under Tiankui Base were not all still loyal was that once the Divine Gate behind Tiankui Base strongly restarted, it was like placing shackles around their necks.
Pushing for the orders was a form of coercion towards Ye Fan... If Ye Fan showed weakness, capitulated, or failed to deliver the goods from the orders, it would be a lethal blow to the credibility and trust in Tiankui Base, while also securing more influence for the restless families, as long as the shackles on their necks were loosened.
Therefore, families like the Qiu and Miao were so eager to stir up trouble and smash the plaque of Tiankui Base.
If Tiankui Base didn't allow the Ancient Martial Mini Alliance to control, then smash the pot, and nobody eats!
However, what they didn't know was that Ye Fan had already anticipated this situation with the orders. Thus, last night he had Songyang gather the raw materials and work overnight, completing all the runic weapons listed in the orders.
Hmph!
Today, just quietly watch these people come to perform!
...
Outside the main gate of Tiankui Base, Qi Yuan and Qi Jiao, along with the Qi Family's bodyguards and some from the Song Family, were confronting over a hundred family representatives!
"Head of the Qi Family, we are not here to fight today, we just heard that Tiankui Base has restarted, and those orders Tiankui Base owed us also should be delivered by now, we just want to enter the base to see how the goods we ordered are being produced!"
"Right! Our request isn't unreasonable, right? You already took the deposit, if you can't deliver the goods, you owe us an explanation!"
"Look! Here we have contracts, and if Tiankui Base cannot deliver the goods, we have the right to use Tiankui Base as collateral!"
Some of the family representatives were frantically waving contracts in their hands, stamped with the seal of the Chen Family from the Four Great Families.
Qi Yuan was also very helpless!
Because many of the orders were not jointly approved by the Four Great Families, but were unilaterally signed by the head of the Chen Family, Chen Hong, using the name of the Four Great Families and Tiankui Base.
This was also the reason why orders were backlogged in Tiankui Base!
The money was taken by the Chen Family, yet the delivery had to be borne by the Four Great Families.
Moreover, the content of the contracts was entirely problematic, having to put Tiankui Base up as collateral if unable to deliver normally?
This obviously showed that the Chen Family had been laying the groundwork to seize Tiankui Base long ago!
But now the entire Chen Family had been wiped out, and dealing with these orders was extremely troublesome!@@novelbin@@
"Everyone, don't rush, don't panic! Young Master Ye will be here soon, Young Master Ye will definitely give you an explanation!" Qi Yuan, though one of the Four Great Families, was too straightforward, previously handling only background coordination and raw materials procurement. He was completely unsure how to deal with such confrontations.
"Hmph!"
Hearing Qi Yuan's words, the crowd leader, Patriarch Miao, sneered and exchanged glances with a few other heads of the Ancient Martial Mini Alliance beside him.
They were here for Ye Fan today!
If Tiankui Base couldn't deliver on time, their deepest desire in the Ancient Martial Mini Alliance was to fight for shared management of Tiankui Base. That way, they would no longer be mere vassals under Tiankui Base, but would become half-owners of Tiankui Base.
If Ye Fan were to give in once, their families could jointly manage Tiankui Base. With more people, they could eventually take full control of Tiankui Base.
"Even if Ye Fan came, how could he explain himself? Could he really produce so many runic weapons?"
The scene quieted down for a few seconds, then became noisy again!
Just as Qi Yuan was struggling to suppress it, a Hummer stopped nearby, and Ye Fan stepped out and spoke indifferently, "What's all the noise about? It's just a few weapons, right? Is Tiankui Base going to owe you something?"
Ye Fan's voice was not loud, but as he spoke, his spiritual power fluctuated, instantly silencing the representatives of the Ancient Martial Families present.
How powerful!
The Martial Breath fluctuating from Ye Fan's body suppressed everyone, and the fluctuations of mental power did the same!
At that moment, Ye Fan, standing there, was like a towering sword between heaven and earth.
Dominant! Cold!
He looked down on the world, making people dare not look directly at him, some even felt the urge to worship.
Was this the same foolish Young Master Ye from the Ye Family?
It seems that the recent rumors about Ye Fan were entirely true; the foolish Young Master Ye had been pretending all along, and he had now fully awakened!
The scene was quiet for a few seconds, and the first to react was Patriarch Miao from the Ancient Martial Mini Alliance, Miao Renfeng, "Young Master Ye, you make it sound so easy! Do you think these are just a few runic weapons? Together, our families need at least a thousand pieces! Hmph! Judging by the previous annual output of Tiankui Base of 100 pieces, it would take at least ten years... I wonder how Young Master Ye plans to fulfill the orders?"
Miao Renfeng had already gathered these families connected to Tiankui Base and had prepared the statistics in advance; a thousand Rune War Soldiers, based on past speeds, Tiankui Base absolutely couldn't deliver them immediately.
"So, today we've come to find Young Master Ye, because we want an explanation! If Young Master Ye can't deliver on time, we'll have to enact the contract... On the Ancient Martial Alliance's part, we have had a public notary witness this! If you can't deliver on time, Tiankui Base will be used as collateral..."
As Miao Renfeng's few lackeys were still introducing, Ye Fan coldly interrupted them, "Whether I can deliver is my concern! You're here today rushing delivery, but have you brought enough final payment? One Rune War Soldier costs a billion; it'd be embarrassing if, after Young Master gives you the goods, you can't pay up!"
Seeing how calm and confident Ye Fan was, Qi Yuan started to worry, "Young Master Ye, Tiankui Base's production isn't that large? We can't possibly deliver so many goods, you..."
Qi Yuan didn't understand what Ye Fan was doing—was he bluffing?
Miao Renfeng was also well aware of Tiankui Base's production capabilities; exactly because of this, three years ago, they had collaborated with Chen Hong, Patriarch of the Chen Family, to intentionally place so many orders.
The purpose was to force a coup in three years' time! Your next read is at My Virtual Library Empire
Initially, their plan was to force Songyang and Qi Yuan to comply, but now Tiankui Base was completely under Ye Fan's control; he was the person they had to deal with!
"Ye Fan, stop pretending... We all know the production issues of Tiankui Base! Clearly there isn't so much inventory, so stop pretending!" Miao Renfeng laughed wildly, "How about this! Let's all take a step back. We won't force the mortgage of Tiankui Base. Let's divide some of Tiankui Base's power and form a Tiankui Base Decision-Making Committee composed of our families to jointly manage Tiankui Base, how about that?"
The ulterior motives of Miao Renfeng and the others were finally fully revealed!
"Young Master Ye, this is a solution that's good for everyone! Otherwise, it will ruin Tiankui Base's reputation if it has just restarted and can't deliver, and it will fatally impact its credit and future prestige. You'd better think it over... Don't say we didn't give you a chance..."
By leveraging Tiankui Base's future impact to manipulate Ye Fan, Miao Renfeng was extremely pleased with himself!
This was all a pure business plan, and Ye Fan couldn't just lash out physically!
According to the current progress, the goal of jointly managing Tiankui Base could likely be achieved... Even Prince Jin had failed to seize control of Tiankui Base, yet he was managing to manipulate it with such a tactic!
I'm really awesome!
Miao Renfeng couldn't wait to give his own ingenuity thirty-two likes...
What do you think?
