Facing the other party's seemingly conciliatory tone, Mingye held up three fingers and said, "First, I want you to help clear the way. I intend to build dams between the Land of Wind and the Land of Rain. Any objections?"
The man frowned deeply as soon as he heard Mingye's first demand.
"You're being a little too greedy, aren't you?"
Mingye shook his head and chuckled before speaking again.
"You can take thirty percent of the profits, I'll take fifty percent, and the remaining twenty percent will go to the people of the Land of Rain who guard the dams. And I mean all dams. Once our dams are built, any other dams not constructed by us must either be destroyed or placed under our management!"
The man fell silent, seemingly considering the matter before asking, "There are two more matters, right?"
Mingye raised his index and middle fingers and continued toward the man.
"Second, I'll help you capture that raccoon dog at Lush Forest Temple. In return, you must fully guarantee that our interests in the Land of Wind will not suffer the slightest loss!"
"The third matter!"
The man agreed to Mingye's second condition without a moment's hesitation. Seeing this, Mingye immediately stated his third condition.
"The third matter is even simpler. There's a man named Yuteng You in the Land of Rivers. I want him dead. Unfortunately, we can't make a move to assassinate him ourselves. This matter can only be entrusted to you!"
The man pondered for a moment before confirming it with Mingye.
"Yuteng You! You mean the man helping your Land of Fire manage the political affairs of the Land of Rivers?"
Mingye nodded. Yuteng You was essentially the Land of Fire's diplomat in the Land of Rivers, and his other identity was Funazai
