When Zhao Hai's words came out, the audience wasn't surprised. They knew that Zhao Hai didn't want to stay here any longer. To be honest, they already admired Zhao Hai for being able to endure until now.
Although Terry wasn't willing, since Zhao Hai said it so openly, he couldn't force him to stay. So he could only raise his glass to Zhao Hai to show his agreement.
Zhao Hai smiled faintly, then he bowed to the audience and said, "Since Mister Terry said that I can't sing, then I won't sing anymore. It just so happens that when I went out to sea, I wrote a poem with only two lines. I ask everyone to comment on it."
When the audience heard Zhao Hai, they couldn't help but stare. Then an uproar broke out, a poem with only two lines? Can that be considered a poem? At this time, the audience understood that Zhao Hai was going to make a fool of himself tonight.
Laura and the others' expressions weren't good, only Terry had a smug expression. He believed that he would win this round!
Zhao Hai looked at the faces of the audience, then he smiled faintly and said, "Some time ago, when I went out to sea, I caught some Magic Beasts and brought them back to the continent for God's Grace Day. This poem was written after seeing some Magic Beasts in the sea. It's only two lines, very short. However, I think that this poem would be very vivid and profound." Zhao Hai smiled faintly and said, "You're right.
The audience looked at Zhao Hai anxiously. They didn't know what kind of poem Zhao Hai would write after such a long time of suspense.
Zhao Hai looked at the audience and smiled faintly, "I think that there are a lot of people who like to eat crabs. This poem of mine is about crabs. I ask everyone to comment on it!" At this point, he cleared his throat and glanced at everyone below the stage. He then glanced at the smug Terry and slowly said, "Chang Jiang will observe the crab with cold eyes. Let's see how long you can run rampant!"
Silence, incomparable silence. It was even quieter than when the song was finished!
Hahahahaha! A sudden burst of laughter broke the silence. Zhao Hai didn't need to look to know that it was Jason who was laughing.
Jason's laughter caused a chain reaction. Everyone in the hall laughed as well. Everyone knew what Zhao Hai's poem meant, and who it was aimed at.
The young nobles found themselves liking Zhao Hai more and more. If Zhao Hai kept holding back, these people wouldn't like Zhao Hai. This was because Zhao Hai was too spineless. Even if Zhao Hai retaliated in the future, they would think that Zhao Hai was a treacherous villain.
But when Zhao Hai's poem came out, they immediately understood what Zhao Hai meant. He was clearly scolding people, moreover, he was scolding them. And the most wonderful thing was that even though he was scolding them, Terry couldn't say anything. If Terry were to clamor now, not only would he lose his poise, he would also be scolded. Wonderful, very wonderful.
At this time, Zhao Hai was still on the stage. He bowed to the audience and said, "Everyone, since I have some matters to attend to, I will be going back first. I thank Mister Terry for his hospitality, I am very grateful." Then he bowed again to the audience before he left the stage.
The young nobles surrounded Zhao Hai, they were like stars surrounding the moon as they escorted Zhao Hai out of the hall. Terry's face was pale, he knew that he would become a laughingstock tomorrow. This news would spread throughout the entire Gesun Empire's noble circle.
Laura and the others also had smiles on their faces as they followed Zhao Hai out. When they arrived at the entrance of the hall, Zhao Hai turned his head to say goodbye to the crowd before he left.
Although the nobles liked Zhao Hai, they still gave the Robert Family some face. They didn't immediately follow Zhao Hai out. However, they still looked at Zhao Hai and Terry with strange expressions.
On the other hand, Jason didn't have these concerns, he didn't care about them as he directly followed Zhao Hai out. The servants didn't know what happened in the hall, but they were already informed by Terry. When Zhao Hai returned, he was still riding the thin carriage. However, Jason couldn't do the same. Although the Crook Family wasn't a millennium-old family, they still couldn't be underestimated. Because of this, the servants immediately brought Zhao Hai's carriage as well as another carriage.
Jason didn't care about these things, he just took Zhao Hai's carriage along with Laura and the others. After the group sat down, Jason laughed and said, "Good job, Zhao Hai. Hahahaha. Didn't you see Terry's face after he heard your poem? Hahaha. I'm afraid that he would vomit blood. "
Zhao Hai smiled and said, "That's an exaggeration. Even if he didn't vomit today, he would still vomit tomorrow. Haha."
Naturally, Zhao Hai lowered his voice and used a soundproof magic to prevent the servants from hearing him. Laura and the others were also sitting there with smiles on their faces. They didn't think that Zhao Hai would actually use a poem to scold Terry. This made Terry speechless.
Before long, the carriage arrived outside Savage Wolf Fort. Zhao Hai and Terry got down from the carriage and said their goodbyes. Then they got on their own carriage and went down the mountain.
After getting on the carriage, Zhao Hai and the others immediately returned to the Space. The one hour duration of the operation had almost passed. Zhao Hai wanted to know how the operation went.
Upon arriving at the Space, Zhao Hai saw the smiling faces of Green and Kun. Looking at the two's expression, Zhao Hai relaxed. It seems like the operation was a success.
When Green and Kun saw Zhao and the others come in, they immediately invited them to sit down. Then Green smiled and said, "Young Master, the operation was very successful, there were no accidents. This time, not only did we kill the people in the Rotterdam family's shops, we also took all of their goods. Even if they put out the fire in their shops, they would still need a lot of things to rebuild their shops. Most importantly, this time we obtained more than 10 million tons of daily necessities, more than 10 million gold coins, more than 30 million silver coins, and more than 100 million steel coins. Moreover, we also obtained enough bricks and wood to build 500 houses, we made a huge profit."
Zhao Hai didn't think that they would get so many things. He looked at Green and said, "How can there be so many things?"
Green smiled and said, "Didn't God's Grace Day just pass? That's the time when the continent's stores are stocking up. During God's Grace Day, the stores were selling very fast. Therefore, after God's Grace Day, they immediately replenished their stock. Their stock has just been replenished, and with the stores' liquidity, that's why they have so much stock."
Zhao Hai nodded and said, "What about those people? Did you kill them all? Did you do it according to my plan? "
Green nodded and said, "Rest assured, Young Master, everything was done according to your plan. All of them were killed, no one was left alive. Moreover, the shops were cleaned and destroyed, making sure that no clues were left behind. Moreover, before the operation, the shops were also used with Dark Magic to make sure that nobody saw who was behind this operation. All of the people who were killed were beheaded and made into statues."
Zhao Hai nodded and said, "That's good. This time, I want to see how the Robert Family will make a comeback. Moreover, with these things, even if the Beastman slaves come, we wouldn't need to worry about their food and clothing. Hahaha."
Green also smiled, these millennium-old families were truly amazing. They didn't even touch the Robert Family's castle yet they were already able to obtain so many good things. With these things, they would be able to settle the 100 thousand people. Moreover, they could also use these things to trade with the Fishmen and Beastmen. Most importantly, with so many silver and copper coins, Iron Mountain Fort's financial system would be completely established. Basically, they would be able to put an end to the awkward situation of bartering or using things to exchange for wages.
Although Iron Mountain Fort's development was good, there were very few silver and copper coins circulating in the market. Instead, gold coins were the most common. Because of this, the people in Iron Mountain Fort would use bartering. Only when they went to Zhao Hai's shop would they be able to use gold coins.
This was too inconvenient. There were only a few people right now, but when there are more people, the situation would become even more chaotic. But with these silver and copper coins, the circulation of money in Iron Mountain Fort wouldn't be a problem.
Quinn John smiled and said, "This time's operation was very clean. I believe that nobody would be able to see any flaws. When we retreated, in order to not let the Mages know that we used Dark Magic, we also used Light Magic to attack the place. This made sure that all traces of Dark Magic would disappear, leaving only traces of Light Magic. Nobody would be able to trace it back to us. Don't forget, we and the Radiant Church are sworn enemies. Perhaps, this matter would be blamed on the Radiant Church in the end."
When Zhao Hai heard Quinn John, he couldn't help but stare. He looked at Quinn John and said, "Grandpa Quinn John, whose idea was this? Good idea, why didn't I think of it before? "
Before, Zhao Hai only thought of not being discovered, he didn't think of using Light Magic to destroy the place. It seems like the older the ginger, the spicier it is.
Quinn John smiled and said, "It's normal that you didn't think of it. Alright, no need to worry about that. Today, we're all tired, so we'll go rest. Tomorrow, you'll have to move the building materials to the Black Wasteland. Then when spring comes, we'll bring back the slaves from the Beastman Prairie in batches."
Zhao Hai nodded, but Green didn't immediately go to rest. Instead, he looked at Zhao Hai and said, "Young Master, how was today's banquet?"
Zhao Hai smiled faintly and said, "It was very good, it went very smoothly."
Laura and the others couldn't help but laugh. Then Laura told Green and Quinn John about what happened during the banquet. After the two listened, they couldn't help but laugh. They didn't think that Zhao Hai would actually use this method to scold Terry. Moreover, he scolded Terry to the point that he couldn't even retort.
