Zheng Dao looked at the honest Master Luo and sighed in her heart. No wonder he came looking for her. Come to think of it, the people outside were in a state of panic. If it wasn't for the Mist Formation in Qi City's villa, people from all walks of life would have broken through the doorstep and asked for a definite answer.
Is this the time to buy houses at a low price?
He dared not guarantee it. Should he ask the Venerable One?
No, there was no such thing as an impenetrable wall in the world. If he told Master Luo that he could buy it, there would be a large number of people going to buy it at a low price tomorrow. Then what?
If he failed, the blame would not fall on him, but on the Venerable One.
He hesitated for a while, then slowly said, "Master Luo, you can rent a big house first …"
"Uh, that's true." A hint of disappointment flashed across Master Luo's face. Then, he felt a little ashamed. "I'm really sorry to have troubled you, Mr. Zheng. I'll tell them that when I get back."
Them? Shouldn't he tell his own daughter?
"Hehe, I knew it …" Zheng Dao immediately understood, but he did not point it out. He only nodded and smiled. "Master Luo, the sky won't fall. The Venerable One won't let innocent people die for no reason. However, we must be sincere and not have any evil thoughts."
"Yes, yes, Mr. Zheng is right." Master Luo's face turned slightly red, but he was very grateful. The other party had given him some face. In fact, the other party knew everything in his heart. After all, he was a learned person.
"Master Luo, it's almost winter. There's not much to do. You can go back to your hometown more often."
"Thank you, sir. Then I will take a leave of absence and go back to rent a house for the insatiable cat to live in," Master Luo said embarrassedly.
"Okay, if there's anything, you can call me or leave a message in the villa workers' group," Zheng Dao said.
"Yes, yes, I understand. Thank you, Mr. Zheng," Master Luo said, feeling relaxed.
Zheng Dao watched him leave, then shook his head and returned to his study.
Suddenly, his phone rang.
He opened WeChat and saw that there were messages from a few old customers who wanted to buy the Dragon Clan Honey-flavored Pill.
He typed a few words: "Temporarily out of stock, please wait for the next batch, or choose ordinary Vitality Pills."
The Supremacy was very busy now, and the Honey-flavored Pill had not been sold for a long time. It was probably because of the lack of raw materials.
…
The next day, Master Luo took the first train to Qi City.
Not long after, the train started moving and his phone rang. He picked it up.
"Uncle Luo, can I buy that house?"
"Mr. Zheng told me that renting is better than buying."
"What does that mean? Did he suggest to buy it or not? "
"They don't have any suggestions. Don't always think about taking shortcuts to make big money. It's better to be down-to-earth."
"Uncle, you're still as old-fashioned as ever. Everyone knows that you have to rely on the mountain to live off the mountain. Just ask around and tell me that our whole family won't have to work for the rest of our lives. If we don't make good use of the resources in our hands, how can we make big money?"
"At a time like this, it's good enough to be able to live a peaceful life. I only know one thing. People who are too greedy will not have a good ending," Master Luo said slowly.
"Hmph, old-fashioned. If you don't want to tell me, then I'll tell you. Your daughter is in our hands. If you want her to be safe, then ask clearly. Can we buy a house now?"
"Wang Ergou, don't court death!" Master Luo suddenly shouted.
Some of the passengers cast doubtful glances at him.
"You refuse a toast only to drink a forfeit. I don't want to force you since you're an elder. If you can't put down your pride and don't ask clearly for me, then you'll have to bear the consequences! "The voice on the other side of the phone also became louder.
"Hmph," Master Luo did not look worried at all. He said calmly, "Let me tell you, the Venerable One patrols the world and can see thousands of miles away. He won't even let a petty thief go. You dared to kidnap my daughter one second ago, and the next second, you'll be in jail."
Some people quietly pricked up their ears, as if something big was about to happen?
"Uh, old thing, I really can't scare you. Forget it, I'll find someone else." The other side hung up the phone resentfully.
Master Luo, on the other hand, let out a deep sigh of relief and quickly dialed another phone number.
"Huahua, are you there?"
"What's up, old man?" A crisp female voice was heard.
"How's everything at home?"
"Everything's fine. It's the thing I mentioned two days ago. Xiao Hua got married and is about to become an official citizen. Now he's asking to stay in the master bedroom. When you come back, help him build a shack on the balcony." The other side of the phone said.
It turned out that Master Luo really lied. His daughter did not say that she wanted to move to a bigger house, but it was another relative's child who wanted to speculate in real estate and asked Vigilante A through his connections.
"Hehe, when I get back, I'll rent a house in the same building for him. There are quite a few families in our building, so if we rent one for him, he'll be helping us quite a bit."
"That's fine too, but if we want to pet him in the future, we'll have to ask the neighbors. That's troublesome."
Normal people had normal lives. They could not care less about how the higher-ups were doing, and their lives were still the same.
…
Normal people lived a small and fortunate life, but Vigilante A still came and went from the clouds to the fog every day.
On this day, Sir System looked at the scene below and hesitated.
"Brother, are you there?"
"What's up? Brother System? "
"Fang Ning" stopped cultivating.
"Uh, you can call me Big Brother. After all, I'm already more than a year old, and you're only a few days old. If you call me Brother System and that lazy Mr. Rich Boss finds out, he'll definitely think that I'm a good-for-nothing … It's not nice to hear. "Sir System suggested.
"That's fine too, Big Brother. What's up?"
"Brother, look at the scene below. It doesn't feel right, but the System Map didn't tell me whether I can farm it or not. In the past, when we encountered something like this, it was always the lazy Mr. Rich Boss who made them famous … Brother, do you have the ability to do that?"
Fang Ning hurriedly looked down through the System View and was immediately shocked.
Below them was a messy mineshaft, and within the mineshaft, there was a group of strange-looking creatures hard at work. There were some brownish-purple ores all over the mineshaft.
"Hurry up and work, you lazy bastards! The Demon Alliance has just been established, so everyone has to work hard. We have to work 16 hours a day, and we have to double the workload of humans to surpass them! "
A wolf demon, wrapped in a deerskin skirt and holding a whip, roared at a group of demons who were working hard to dig ores.
"Where is this?"
"This is a mine in Guifang Country. I remember that it should be occupied by Cloud Fog City. Why is it being mined by demons?" Sir System was puzzled.
"I haven't heard of Duke Yun asking for help recently. Could it be that they're trading normally? Let me make a call and ask. "Fang Ning said subconsciously.
"That's good. Brother, it seems like you're quite familiar with the past." Sir System exclaimed.
"Hehe, after all, I'm in the same body as that lazy bastard. His memory is my memory." Fang Ning almost exposed himself, so he quickly smoothed things over. He could not help but feel depressed. It was really hard to be a two-faced person.
"Oh, if that's the case, can you tell me how much money that guy has? He told me once before, but I always felt that it was incomplete. "Sir System immediately asked.
"Uh, Big Brother, as the saying goes, a gentleman loves money, but he gets it in a proper way. We can't do these sneaky things. We have to do it openly and earn our own living. This is what a hero should do. A gentleman should be responsible." Fang Ning lectured seriously.
"Oh, is that so? Brother, you're right. In that case, I won't covet his money. We'll earn it ourselves. Brother, you're a hundred times more hardworking than him, and you can see the big picture too. I believe that you'll be richer than him soon. "Sir System encouraged.
Fang Ning did not continue the conversation. Instead, he dialed the Cloud Fog City's number.
After a while, he put down the phone.
"The Cloud Fog City said that they didn't trade with these demons. This mine was indeed occupied by them, but because of a lack of manpower, it's been used as a reserve mine and hasn't been used."
"Outrageous. Doesn't that mean that there's a bunch of thief demons down there? Why aren't they shown as red on my System Map? "
"I think it's probably because these natural resources can be exploited by humans, and naturally, demons can too. However, Big Brother, I think that your System Map has indeed reached a bottleneck. "Fang Ning rolled his eyes. It was really annoying to keep calling this idiot" Big Brother ".
"Yes, it used to be easier to judge good and evil for humans. Later on, it was easier to deal with those demons and spirits that harm nature and humans. Now that there's an additional demon race, they're competing with humans everywhere. "
"Lazy Mr. Rich Boss has been fooled by Ren Ruofeng. He's determined to judge good and evil from the perspective of humans. However, my System Map hasn't been updated in time, so I still can't deal with it. I have to ask him to make these monsters red every time. It's so troublesome. "Sir System said gloomily.
"Alright, I'll think of a way to talk to him and try to solve the problem of updating your map as soon as possible." Fang Ning gritted his teeth.
