Chapter 510

After parting with his friends, Xiao Feng did not immediately head to Shen Jie.

The upgrade of the war main city is still less than a day away; he wants to wait until the upgrade succeeds, set up the 【Abyssal Teleportation Gate】 properly, then go to Shen Jie.

Nineteen hours is enough time to do many things; he returned home, summoned Dai Ni Si, and made a trip to Cheng Zhu Fu.

"Xiao Feng warrior, what are we going to Cheng Zhu Fu to do?" Dai Ni Si asked curiously, walking beside him.

"Huh? What are you calling me?" Xiao Feng threatened with a glance.

Dai Ni Si lowered her head, "Father… Father God."

"No, no." He shook his head.

Habits must be cultivated from a young age; for such forms of address, they should be clarified early, not changed daily without a fixed rule.

Father God, Mother God? Actually line 9: "Only ordinary people would call Dad…… I want to call Father God, unless Mother God lets me change my way of speaking!" So includes Father God and Mother God

Upon reflection, having such a big girl call him "dad" is indeed a bit excessive. Although she is young in age, her appearance is at most three or four years younger than him.

To avoid people thinking he's a demonic father, let's just call him Father God!

"Today I'll take you to Cheng Zhu Fu to claim a shop. You need to earn money to level up, right? Father God has arranged everything perfectly for you—you'll receive a large amount of gold coins every day. Even if I'm not around, your level can steadily rise, and before long you'll reach the demigod realm and be able to ascend back to Wind Spirit Island." Xiao Feng explained his intention.

Upon hearing this, Dai Ni Si first exclaimed delightedly, "Great, great! I love anything that earns gold coins!"

Then she furrowed her brows and questioned doubtfully, "Father God, did you arrange this because you find daily quests too troublesome and want to get rid of me, never to return?"

Mid-sentence, her joy completely vanished, replaced by resentment and sorrow.

"How could that be." Xiao Feng ruffled her hair, smiling as he explained: "I just feel that relying solely on quests is too slow—earning 100 million gold coins a day, reaching level 250 would take at least three months, which is hard to wait. I'm now helping you open a top-tier equipment shop that sells high-quality gear; you could earn several hundred million a day, speeding things up several times over. If all goes well, within at most one month you can return to Shen Jie and reunite with your Mother Goddess—wouldn't that be great?"

none

Dai Ni Si fell into thought, counting on her fingers the growth rate of gold coins.

After a moment, she joyfully said, "Great! I knew Father God wouldn't abandon me—let's go to Cheng Zhu Fu now!"

Saying that, she grabbed Xiao Feng's hand and hopped along, jogging all the way to the gate of Cheng Zhu Fu.

The girl's cheerful laughter fell upon the street, her white skirt fluttering, her long golden hair swaying in the breeze, drifting onto Xiao Feng's face and bringing a faint fragrance.

"Don't run so fast, what's the rush?" he said helplessly.

Nevertheless, he also enjoyed the joy Dai Ni Si brought, carefree and very content.

Under the gaze of countless players on either side of the street, Civilization Lord Xiao Feng the great god was led by a very pretty NPC girl into Cheng Zhu Fu.

Xiao Feng Warrior (exclude)

Xiao Feng Warrior (exclude)

City Lord's Mansion invigilators etc (exclude)

Xiao Feng had previously been unwilling to let others call him Lord of Cheng Zhu Fu, fearing discovery.

That's why, even though he had just brought Li Li and others inside, he didn't give himself away.

So far, among the players, only Mang Mei knows his identity.

After entering Cheng Zhu Fu, Xiao Feng found the official in charge of the main city's shops and requested a system store not rented to players, transferring it into Dai Ni Si's name.

This system store is located near the Teleportation Array, not far from Xiao Zhai.

Before, it sold potions, with heavy foot traffic; although prices were somewhat higher than those of player shops, thanks to its location advantage, daily sales still exceeded 50 million gold coins.

A bottle of mid-low-grade potion costs only one or two silver coins; selling that much indicates an enormous volume.

Selling potions yields high profit, but the overall benefit is still too low.

Xiao Feng directly ordered his subordinates to remodel the store into an equipment shop, renaming it "Divine Artifact Specialty Store" and taking the high-end route.

City Lord's Mansion, Treasury (exclude), Teleportation Array (maybe not mentioned? Actually line 40: "The goods in the shop are uniformly provided by the City Lord's Mansion, taken from the Treasury, and restocked every 12 hours." No Teleportation Array. So ignore.)

All equipment sold matches the current stage's player level requirements; in quality it starts at epic, focusing mainly on legendary and mythic gear.

Super Mythic Equipment

He took ten inferior divine artifacts from himself and gave them to Dai Ni Si, having her list one each day as the "store's treasure" priced at 100 million gold coins; if it doesn't sell, she keeps it listed until it sells.

Blue Star has no shortage of wealthy people; 100 million gold coins equals only 200 million Dragon Nation coins, which isn't too outrageous for some domestic and overseas tycoons—surely someone will need it.

After issuing the order, the official promptly sent someone to handle it; within just two hours, the storefront was completely renovated.

Subsequently, with the help of Cheng Zhu Fu's guards, 【they】 transported

Delivering, they took out 5000 pieces of epic-or-better equipment from the main city warehouse and sent them to the store in preparation for sale.

The shop's deed has already reached Dai Ni Si's hands; she is the owner, and all profits belong to her personally.

Permitted by the Cheng Zhu Fu lord, this shop is permanently tax-exempt and also provided with a dedicated city defense force of 100 personnel as security.

Xiao Feng worried that the little girl would be bored staying in the shop all day, so he also had the officials find a few NPCs to come tend the shop and receive players.

The wages of these shop staff are uniformly paid by Cheng Zhu Fu, distributed according to the staffing of War City civil servants, with social insurance and housing fund contributions; they can also be incorporated into the official roster, and later, if they earn great merit, they will be directly promoted.

As long as they work well, Dai Ni Si will soon become the richest woman in War City!

With this arrangement, the little girl basically doesn't need to do anything and can just sit there counting money.

She doesn't even need to stay in the shop often; whenever she feels like coming, she can just drop by, take away a large amount of gold coins, and her level will skyrocket!

The main city's minister of internal affairs personally accompanied Xiao Feng throughout the whole process.

Only after finishing everything did he leave.

Before leaving, he also secretly told those recruited shop staff: "You'd better be careful; this girl is most likely the Cheng Zhu Fu lord's daughter-in-law. If you offend her, even General Craweil won't be able to save you!"

none

They also saw that the City Lord valued this blonde-haired girl.

The supreme City Lord can decide the life and death of everyone in this city; even if you gave them a hundred guts, they wouldn't dare to look directly at Miss Dai Ni Si's face, let alone offend her.

After seeing off the Minister of Internal Affairs, Xiao Feng said to the several clerks: "You may start business now; later I will issue an announcement to inform the adventurers that the shop is open. From now on, every day at 17:00, if Dai Ni Si does not come to collect money, you shall send the shop's earnings to No. 1 War East Road residence and hand it to her. Understood?"

"Yes, City Lord, we understand!" a group of clerks lowered their heads and replied respectfully.

Dai Ni Si, hearing Xiao Feng's instructions, joyfully said: "So that means I don't have to come specially every day?"

Xiao Feng smiled and said: "As long as you're happy, that's fine; anyway, I've already arranged everything for you."

"Mm-hmm! Father God is the best! Thank you, Father God~"

Dai Ni Si's heart burst with joy; she rushed over, kissed him on the cheek, then took his hand and happily walked away.

The clerks watched the two leave, looking at each other.

"Fa... Father God?"

"Hiss!"

"Who exactly... is she the City Lord's wife or the princess?"
