Chapter 258: 257 The Fastest Way to Make Money in History

"Mr. Joseph?!"

Not knowing Li Ang's plan at this time, after identifying Li Ang's identity by the tuft of yellow hair of the same color on his and the young dog's heads, Agatha couldn't help but be a little surprised:

"It's only been a day, and your change is really... quite big..."

Not only quite big, but also quite expensive. This outfit is enough for my salary at the Cleaning Bureau for half a month. A clothing store in a seaside small town actually sells clothes at the same price as the capital. It's simply outrageous.

After complaining in his heart about the magical prices in Ankara, Li Ang responded with a smile:

"Actually, it's nothing, mainly just changed a set of clothes."

Yeah, it really is just changing a set of clothes, but you look so much more pleasing to the eye now.

After recalling "Mr. Joseph's" past attire and comparing it with his current appearance, Agatha's corners of the mouth couldn't help but curl up slightly. She bit her lips hard several times but couldn't hold it back.

"If you want to laugh, just laugh."

After blinking and looking at the Princess who couldn't help but laugh, Li Ang, while pondering his "persona," said softly with a look of doting:

"If I can make my rose bloom with a smile, even if I am laughed at by everyone, it is worth it."

"..."

Alright, it seems that only the face has changed. Mr. Joseph is indeed still that Mr. Joseph.

After shaking her head somewhat helplessly, Agatha, who was no longer a tavern waitress and didn't need to cater to customers, said:

"Mr. Joseph, please don't say such things again. I am just myself, not anyone's rose."

"Okay, the most beautiful rose in my heart."

"..."

This person is hopeless.

After looking at Li Ang, whose eyes were full of her, Agatha couldn't help but shake her head, gave up the idea of changing him, and turned to look at the recruitment section of the newspaper, preparing to find a job for herself first.

And after noticing her gaze, several transparent silk threads on the head of the male lead, Elijah, trembled slightly. Immediately after, as if inspired, Elijah asked thoughtfully:

"By the way, Miss Agatha, shouldn't you be working at the pier tavern now? Why did you come to the post office?"

"I lost my job."

After briefly explaining the subsequent situation, Agatha said somewhat helplessly:

"I probably won't stay here for too long, probably just ten days or so, so I need to find a short-term job. But these recruitment ads all want long-term employees, and I don't want to lie to people, so it's a bit troublesome now..."

A short-term job for ten days?

After hearing Agatha's words, Elijah couldn't help but have a move in his heart, remembering that he wanted to find a local to be a tour guide, so he simply said directly:

"How about..."

"How about coming to my place?"

Knowing that Agatha would likely lose her job, Li Ang, who had been squatting at the post office for several hours, directly intercepted with a made-up reason:

"Although my parents left me a huge fortune, they died in a shipwreck very early. Only my grandmother and I are left at home. My grandmother is also very ill recently. The old lady hopes that I can get married early, so... can you please do me a favor and pretend to be my fiancée for a few days?"

Ah this...

After hearing the content of Li Ang's "hiring," the male lead Elijah immediately closed his mouth.

He couldn't not close his mouth. This Mr. Joseph directly sacrificed his parents and grandfather, and the whole family was left with only a grandmother who was already dying and hoping to see the child get married before she died. And he just needed a tour guide to accompany him to visit some attractions. How could this possibly compete?

"This... this is not very good, right?"

After hearing Mr. Joseph's request, the kind-hearted Agatha couldn't help but bite her lower lip and said somewhat hesitantly:

"Mr. Joseph, I don't mind doing you this favor, but I'm planning to leave in a few days, and by then..."

"There might not be a 'by then'."

Li Ang sighed and said:

"Although I have long known that birth, aging, sickness, and death are thresholds that people cannot cross, I still hope to let my grandmother leave with as few regrets as possible... Also, I am really very sorry for the harassment I caused you during this period before.

When I first did this, it was just to prevent you from being harassed by others, and I also hoped to get to know you better, maybe I could let you agree to be my... sigh...

Sorry, my ro... Miss Agatha, it was a bit selfish of me in the past. Regardless of whether you are willing to help this time, I will not harass you again in the future."

"..."

So... the reason you pursued me so hard before was to let me avoid harassment, and also to let your grandmother rest assured?

For Agatha, who only had vague memories of what happened before the "plot," after learning the "truth" that Li Ang had spent a whole night thinking about, her bright eyes couldn't help but soften slightly.

Looking at it this way, although Mr. Joseph... is slightly strange, he is indeed a good person, and he is so filial. Should I just...

"Young Master! Young Master Joseph!"

Just as Li Ang successfully used a "Grandmother's Serious Illness Fist" followed by a "I Have Hidden Difficulties Palm" to successfully perform a set of "Short-Term Rental Girlfriend Eighteen Styles," blowing the two of them away, a butler dressed very exquisitely, moving his fat body, ran over in a hurry from a distance.

After seeing "Mr. Joseph," the fat butler was overjoyed, rushed over with eagerness in his eyes, grabbed Li Ang's arm, and begged:

"Finally found you... Quick! Hurry home with me!

Your grandmother had a quarrel with the old lady Pomona of the neighboring manor because of snatching a silk scarf from the East, and she even used a broom to beat the other person's butt until it was swollen. Hurry home and persuade her!"

Elijah: "?"

Agatha: "?!!"

Li Ang: "..."

You dog, you're quite capable. Last night I went back to Joseph's house, and you didn't even open the door for me, making me sleep on the street for a whole night. Now you dog, you recognize me as your young master again, specifically coming over to mess with me, right?

After glancing at the transparent silk thread on the fat butler's head and knowing that this was the 【King of Drama】 making trouble, Li Ang, knowing he couldn't resist, simply "flew into a rage":

"Why are you here? Didn't I tell you to take five hundred elite guards who are only loyal to me to the richest chamber of commerce in the country left to me by my grandfather, who is a great noble, to buy Agatha, the most beautiful rose in the world who is most worthy of me?"

"..."

This bastard, actually took the opportunity to change the setting!

Hearing Li Ang's answer, which couldn't be said to be carrying private goods, but was entirely private goods, the 【King of Drama】, who was manipulating all this, gritted his teeth in anger, but couldn't do anything to Li Ang, who had the ability to smash the market, so he had to swallow his anger and accept the new setting he added to himself, not letting the fat butler refute.

And Li Ang also knew when to stop, didn't continue to stay and destroy the plot, but instead did what a surface "supporting character" should do. After showing a somewhat awkward smile to the two, he left the post office in a sorry and painful manner, going home to take stock of the property he had just "earned."

As for the male and female leads left in place, they had already been stunned by this outrageous reversal and family background. They stood in place and were silent for a long while, and then the male lead Elijah spoke:

"This Mr. Joseph... is... quite interesting, huh?"

"Hmm..."

"That... I plan to tour Ankara for two weeks. If you need a short-term job, do you want to be my tour guide?"

"Okay..."
