Chapter 2202 Big Boss
Balan City is still bustling and lively, crowded with people and busy with traffic.
But I came here not to appreciate the grandeur of the times, but for the sake of the industry here.
I have three properties in Balan City, a cafe, a jewelry store, and an underground fighting arena.
The cafe is still as usual, full of customers every day, not only the inside is full of people, but there is also a long queue outside the shop.
These people are all prominent and well-known nobles in Balan City. They come here not just to drink a cup of coffee, nor to catch a glimpse of the beauty of the store clerk, but to gain some fame as the high priest.
You know, this cafe is the only commercial shop in the history of Dashai City where the high priest personally participated in the ribbon-cutting ceremony. This alone shows the great weight and strong background of this shop.
As for the presence of the Beastman King and the Beastman Queen, as well as the Prime Minister's property, etc., they are not as important as the high priest's bargaining chip.
Therefore, even if I lose my position as prime minister, it will still not affect the operation of the cafe.
However, the same cannot be said for jewelry stores.
Its existence is purely supported by my identity. Now that my identity and status are gone, I have to find a strong enough backer for it.
Although the big tree of the High Priest is strong enough, after all, the sky is high and the emperor is far away, and the local snakes are running around, causing me trouble from time to time, which is quite annoying.
So, I found the cafe owner, Isa, and the jewelry store owner, Anna, sitting around a dining table to discuss development plans.
Before waiting for the food and drinks to be served, I gave my general idea to the two women. The main idea was that I wanted to classify the jewelry store as an ancillary industry of the cafe. In this way, even if someone wanted to open a jewelry store, they would have to think carefully about it. His body is enough to shake the position of the high priest.
After hearing this, the two women didn't even have the intention to refute, and directly approved my idea.
After signing the agreement, everyone took a portion in their hands. After doing all this, the food just happened to be served, and the three of us feasted together.
During the dinner, Isa told me that she felt a little homesick.
I understood how she felt, so I told her that as long as she explained the work tasks, she could go back whenever she wanted, and she could even remotely control the cafe in Moonlight City.
These words made Isa's heart flutter, but it was only a heart flutter.
After all, she is a conscientious girl. During the holidays, it is fine to take a magic airship back home, meet her parents and relatives, and play with her brothers and sisters. But if she is allowed to sneak back to Moonlight City from time to time during working hours , meeting her family is really against her original intention.
In contrast to Isa, Anna has no worries in this regard. Her parents have been living in Balan City. However, she used to be a small shop assistant and her family did not have much savings. She could only maintain food and clothing. Now, she has transformed into a The manager of a large and medium-sized jewelry store in Balan City has seen her income skyrocket. Not long ago, she bought a small villa with all the money and moved her family into it. The previous small house has also transformed into a In the warehouse, she can be said to be satisfied with her current life.
After sending the two girls home, I slowly returned to the Fearless Guild's villa in Balan City to rest.
It seemed like no one had been in the villa for a long time, and there was a thin layer of dust on the roof.
After opening the lock and entering the villa, I was greeted by the scent of rotten wood. It wasn't unpleasant, but it was strong and choked.
After opening the doors and windows, I let the smell linger for a long time. Then I entered the villa again and cleaned it a little. I wanted to sleep on the bed, but I found that the beds in several rooms were piled with dust, which was almost half a thumb thick. This made me sad. I lost interest in sleeping in bed.
After turning twice in a depressed mood, I sighed softly, plunged into the sofa, and fell into a deep sleep.
The next day, when it was still dark, I got up from the sofa, stretched my waist, and moved around a few times. Suddenly I remembered that I didn’t seem to receive a call from Phoenix all day yesterday, so I reached into my pocket in confusion and touched the phone. Come and touch.
It didn't matter. I was so shocked that I broke out in a cold sweat. The miniature phone crystal was gone!
After a moment of sluggishness, I sat back on the sofa, rubbed my temples vigorously, and began to recall bits and pieces of yesterday.
"Before I came back here, I sent Isa and Anna home. Going forward, we had dinner together at the hotel. When I paid the bill, I paid for it, but the money and the phone crystal are not in the same pocket."
"We left the battlefield early and came back by magic airship. We left the battlefield early, battlefield. Taylor, by the way!"
I slapped my forehead and said in embarrassment: "I actually forgot. I gave the call crystal to the old man to use to report that he was safe."
After figuring out where the call crystal was, I finally breathed a sigh of relief.
Not only is this thing expensive, but it is also patented by Master Dewey. If it is lost, it will be a troublesome thing after all.
After eating a little breakfast, he lay on the sofa and took a nap for an hour. Then he got up and rushed to the underground fighting arena.
At the entrance of the fighting arena, there were more than a dozen burly men with unkind expressions, all of whom were at least level five or six.
After I showed up, one of them stared at me with an unkind expression and said with a smile: "Boy, what's the matter?"
"It's okay" I nodded.
"If you have something to say, hurry up and get out!" Another wolf adventurer wearing a black jacket shouted with a pair of green eyes.
I know very well that these people are guards sent to guard the underground fighting arena, and I also know that their bluffing behavior is to maintain the peace of the fighting arena.
Although they have an arrogant attitude, they are beneficial to me after all, and they are indirectly my subordinates. Naturally, I will not be angry, let alone kill them in pieces.
So I took a deep breath and chose to convince others with my virtue: "Excuse me, please tell Arnold that a man named An Xiaoyi is visiting. Thank you very much."
After saying that, I took out a handful of silver coins from my pocket and handed them to the wolf adventurer with an extremely arrogant attitude in an extremely obscure way.
It can be seen that this wolf adventurer is the strongest and should be the leader of this group of people.
The wolf adventurer didn't refuse. Instead, he glanced at me and grinned: "Quite sensible."
Collecting people's money and eliminating disasters, the wolf adventurer had a good conscience. He turned around and entered the underground fighting arena.
This process lasted less than ten minutes in total. When I met the wolf adventurer again, he was trembling with fear and with a flattering smile on his face. He handed back the money I bribed him with both hands, and tried to keep his voice as low as possible. Even with a bit of tenderness: "Big. Big boss."
As soon as I said this, the other adventurers took a breath and looked at me with strange eyes, surprised and fearful.
I chuckled and waved my hand: "You have done a good job. Be cruel to people you don't know. If you save my property, your pockets will be bigger and your jobs will be stronger. These money will be used as a reward for you." Yes, put it away."
The wolf adventurer was still hesitating when he heard a loud laugh behind him: "The big boss told you to put it away, so you put it away. Do you want to disobey the big boss?"
