Since their families didn't care, why would Zhao Fu be so nosy? As such, Zhao Fu didn't want to care, and he walked into the real estate office to ask about the restrictions and benefits of being a Baron.
At that moment, Jiang Rou's gaze fell on Zhao Fu and Bai Qi's bodies. Even though Zhao Fu and Bai Qi were both wearing cloaks, Jiang Rou immediately recognized them and asked, "Excuse me! Are you Mister Zhao? "
Zhao Fu felt quite surprised and hadn't expected to be recognized, but he nodded to indicate that he was.
The pompous man's expression became cold – he could tell that these two people were the ones who had hit him before. When he had heard that Zhao Fu was a Legatee, Zhou Jie had thought that he had made a big mistake. However, after going back, he found that a Legatee with the surname Zhao was not in the Forest of Horrors, and there were no signs of any large families entering the Forest of Horrors.
If the Forest of Horrors had a Legatee, the large families would definitely enter the Forest of Horrors to gather resources and help them develop. However, there were no signs of them doing so.
Moreover, when he had said that he was a Legatee, it had only been based on someone else's voice. There was no evidence to prove that he was a Legatee.
From Zhou Jie's perspective, Zhao Fu was just a village villager. Hearing others call him 'Your Majesty', he acted cool and told his subordinates to call him 'Your Majesty'. Dammit! How shameless; even large families didn't dare to call him that.
Zhou Jie coldly laughed. Last time, because the people he brought were too weak, he learned his lesson and specially hired a few strong fighters, all for the sake of taking revenge today.
"Boy! If you have the guts, come out with your elder! "
Zhou Jie coldly laughed as he spoke to Zhao Fu. He knew that he couldn't fight here, so he planned to call Zhao Fu outside to deal with him.
Jiang Rou looked quite troubled, and she found that she had accidentally made trouble for Zhao Fu. She had reported that there was a Legatee in the Forest of Horrors, but after her family had investigated, they had ruled out this possibility and treated it as a joke. She had also received a lot of mockery.
Despite this, Jiang Rou still felt that Zhao Fu was not simple at all. She believed that Zhao Fu was definitely a Legatee, and he was a very powerful one at that. In fact, she had a feeling that in the future, his name would resound throughout the entire world. Even if she was treated as a joke, she still believed it.
"Zhou Jie, don't cause trouble. It's not good for your Zhou family!"
Jiang Rou tried to persuade Zhou Jie, but Zhou Jie was infuriated. He and Jiang Rou were brought together by their families, and Zhou Jie had long since treated Jiang Rou as his fiancée. But now, his fiancée was actually speaking up for another man, so how could Zhou Jie not be angry?
Zhao Fu was quite surprised that Jiang Rou would speak up for him, but Zhao Fu did not have the time to pay attention to Zhou Jie's provocation.
Seeing that he had been ignored by Zhao Fu, Zhou Jie rushed up and slapped Zhao Fu as he yelled, "Goddammit, didn't you hear what your elder was saying?"
Hearing his words, Zhao Fu's gaze became cold. Facing Zhou Jie's slap, Zhao Fu did not move, while Bai Qi coldly harrumphed and grabbed Zhou Jie's hand. He twisted, and with a 'crack', Bai Qi broke Zhou Jie's arm.
"Arghhh!"
A pitiful cry sounded out as Zhou Jie's subordinates saw their master being beaten up. A few of them clenched their fists and rushed towards Bai Qi. Although they were experts in the eyes of ordinary people, against Bai Qi, they were simply seeking death.
Bai Qi's cultivation was already at Stage 0-7, and with the stats of his equipment, it was impossible for them to defeat him. As such, they were quickly beaten to the ground by Bai Qi, and they could not even get up.
When Zhou Jie saw that the fighters he had spent a lot of money to hire were so weak, he immediately called out to the manager of the Real Estate Department, "Look, he's attacking people; hurry up and arrest him."
However, what happened next shocked everyone. The manager, who had been indifferent to players, respectfully walked over to Zhao Fu and called out, "Lord Baron!"
Hearing this, Zhao Fu faintly nodded, thinking that this was the benefit of having a higher status. He turned to look at Zhou Jie, who was clutching his arm in disbelief, and asked the manager, "What should we do?"
The manager smiled and said, "I personally saw these unruly commoners attack Lord Baron first, so Lord Baron was acting in self-defense. This lowly one will immediately call for people to throw these people out."
Following this, the manager really did call a few people to throw Zhou Jie and the others onto the street.
Jiang Rou and the others had never thought that things would turn out like this, nor had they expected that Zhao Fu would already be a Baron. After all, people from large families like Jiang Rou had only just become Citizens, and they were still quite far away from becoming Barons.
In actuality, most of these ordinary families built their villages near system main cities. Even though it was much safer there, there were fewer opportunities. It could be said that within the Forest of Horrors, only Zhao Fu had become a Baron.
"Mr. Zhao, we meet again. I'm sorry for causing trouble for you!"
Jiang Rou apologized for calling out to Zhao Fu and attracting Zhou Jie's attention.
Zhao Fu thought about it and said, "Big Miss Jiang, it's nothing much. It's just a small problem, so there's no need to apologize! "
Jiang Rou said with some embarrassment, "But this matter is related to me, so I'm really sorry. Also, there's no need to call me Big Miss Jiang; just call me by my name!"
Hearing her words, Zhao Fu understood and nodded.
At that moment, Jiang Rou couldn't help but ask, "Um, Mr. Zhao, can we become friends?"
This scene would definitely cause others to feel incredibly envious – there weren't many people who could make Big Miss Jiang take the initiative.
Hearing this, Zhao Fu thought for a moment before replying, "Of course. Also, there's no need to call me Mr. Zhao; just call me Zhao Xin."
Zhao Fu didn't want to reveal his real name, so he could only make up a name.
Hearing that Zhao Fu had agreed and told her his name, Jiang Rou couldn't help but feel quite happy. She lightly smiled, showing off her delicate beauty to the fullest, causing others to feel quite dazed.
Zhao Fu was quite immune to this, and after chatting with Jiang Rou for a bit, he found out why she had come here. The Jiang family wanted to develop Holy Light City, so they wanted to buy a few pieces of land.
However, no one wanted ordinary residential land, and the Jiang family wanted to buy a piece of land along the street. However, there were restrictions on residential land, so they couldn't buy it.
Hearing this, Zhao Fu thought about it and decided to buy the land and sell it at a high price to the large families, earning massive profits.
Zhao Fu had already planned everything out, but after hearing Jiang Rou's words, Zhao Fu felt quite disappointed.
