Chapter 109: Business

Zhang Gui had a premonition that on the continent, the Yuan Mountain Empire's Chang Sheng Tie Mu had already gained the upper hand.

If he continued to follow his pace, he would just be fighting with the monkeys at the bottom level under someone else's hand.

Only by "you go your way, I go mine," not being disturbed by external affairs, and continuing to deploy according to his own layout and strategy, could he possibly open up a new situation.

Therefore, even in the situation where the Ming Song Southern Kingdom was undergoing drastic changes, he still ran to the Xihe people's territory to operate.

In his view, a poor child in a decadent city blocking a seemingly noble foreign gentleman with a face like a flower.

Besides earning a little blood and sweat money, there was clearly no other possibility.

Therefore, he didn't get angry and stopped his steps calmly.

The blonde boy saw this, his smile became more brilliant, and he promoted extremely flatteringly:

"Noble Sir, this city has just experienced a cruel change.

It is full of filthy blood and bacteria left by man-eating ghosts.

Perhaps you need a silk handkerchief that has been smoked for forty-nine days in expensive Eastern herbal juice.

To protect your nasal cavity and health."

"Sounds good." Zhang Gui thought for a while and took out a Fine Pill and a half-eagle silver coin from his handbag.

"But as a prospective merchant, I only do business with people who have vision recently.

This pill and this silver coin, which one do you want?"

When the poor were still hungry, where would they have the leisure to tease with rich people who were full and had nothing to do?

Besides, it was just a half-eagle coin.

The financial power Zhang Gui showed was also truly shabby.

The blonde boy cursed in his heart, but didn't really scold out loud.

However, his expression clearly became dry, "Young Sir, this handkerchief of mine is real chiffon silk.

Even if you take it to a pawnshop, it's worth an eagle coin."

"Oh." Zhang Gui smiled awkwardly, and this time he took out a five-eagle large silver coin

"Besides the handkerchief, give me a 'Tree Knight Short Sword' cigar from Paladin Bay."

Five Eagle Yuan could be converted into two taels and five qian of silver.

And a 'Tree Knight Short Sword' cigar from Paladin Bay had a fair retail price of two and a half Eagle Yuan on the streets of Civilization Pioneer City.

Using the remaining two and a half silver yuan to buy a second-hand chiffon handkerchief was already a quite decent price.

Thus, in the eyes of the blond youth, Zhang Gui, this "young gentleman," turned back into a "noble lord," and the youth even personally lit the cigar for him.

He continued to promote his wares even more respectfully:

"You must be here at 'Silver Fish Street' to do business with the Britannia merchants, right?

They are just like the Gauls now; they have all started to care about style.

If you could carry a cane made of snow-wei pine in your hand, it would certainly..."

"Tasiya, get away. Don't hover around my guest."

A slightly weary, hoarse voice came from the building not far away.

Zhang Gui followed the sound and saw the window open on the second floor of an office building two blocks away.

Salisa, with whom he had an appointment, was holding a cup of coffee and leaning out at an angle.

The blond youth, feeling his business was being disrupted, was very dissatisfied.

He tried hard to control his emotions, tilted his head, and said to Salisa:

"Good afternoon, Ms. Salisa. I was just..."

"He is 'Winter Is Coming.'

The Winter Is Coming who froze the sea surface at the pier a few days ago and almost shattered the Southern Red Moon God's creation with a single punch."

The blond youth's chattering mouth snapped shut, and he laughed dryly:

"You must be joking, Ms. Salisa?"

Salisa replied with an expressionless face:

"A middle-aged Easterner with long hair, young, with narrow eyes, and an unremarkable appearance.

Tasiya, your brother should have told you these characteristics.

It's just because you think you are the biological brother of the boss that you treated his words as wind passing by your ears."

Tasiya's face suddenly became awkward, and he first offered an unnecessary explanation to Salisa:

"Ms. Salisa, I was originally just trying to recommend a decent cane to the powerful Lord Winter Is Coming.

I had absolutely no other intentions."

Afterward, he bowed to Zhang Gui again to show his respect:

"I have disturbed you, respected Lord Winter Is Coming. Thank you for your five Eagle Yuan.

Next time we meet, I will definitely give you a discount."

Then he turned and ran.

Watching his panicked back, Salisa suddenly shouted:

"Tasiya, guess why a powerhouse strong enough to snipe at divine artifacts would mess around with a grinning, glib-tongued gang kid.

You almost became a mouse under the claws of a ferocious lynx.

Didn't you keep a cat before? Think about what the ending would be.

Hmph, you clearly have the opportunity to get rid of a life like garbage, yet you still choose to degenerate.

Don't wait until the day you regret it comes!"

Tasiya's footsteps paused; he turned and bowed deeply to Salisa, then ran wildly at an even faster pace, disappearing at the end of the street.

At the same time, Salisa's figure leaning out of the window also disappeared.

Zhang Gui strolled forward and arrived under that window.

A row of signs hung beside the door of the office building.

The largest and newest one was, in fact, "Black Lion Trade Brokerage Company."

Pushing the door open, one entered a guard room used by all tenants.

A sturdy young man was recording, and an ordinary-looking middle-aged woman was receiving guests.

However, by this time, Salisa had already come down the stairs to welcome Zhang Gui personally.

Without even making a record, the two arrived at the Black Lion's office.

The decoration here was quite elegant, and all the furniture was new.

Only the boss's office chair with wheels looked quite old.

There were a total of five employees in the office.

Two plump middle-aged women were mopping the floor over and over again.

A girl with glasses was buried in writing something.

Another girl of the same age was preparing coffee.

Beside her, another girl was managing two ovens by herself, one baking cookies and the other roasting bread.

Strangely, even though the furnace fire was dazzling under the sunlight, the temperature in the room remained quite cool.

"Please sit down, Mr. Caiyang."

As the host, Salisa invited Zhang Gui to sit down first before she sat down herself.

The girl preparing coffee immediately brought over coffee, "Please enjoy, Mr. Caiyang.

I hope you like the coffee I made.

It is bitter with a hint of sweetness, with an endless aftertaste."

Zhang Gui felt the girl's tone of voice was a bit strange, but his upbringing from two lifetimes still made him smile politely, "That sounds really good, thank you very much."

At this moment, Salisa explained with an expressionless face:

"She is Salili Black Lion Halifa, my younger sister and my only relative.

But I still hate her pranks very much.

Salili, withdraw all your clones, and then go back to the room upstairs to practice meditation.

I have serious business to discuss with the guest."

The coffee girl nodded very obediently,

"Okay, sister, but can you wait until I finish baking the snacks?"

"Fine."

"Then can you let Mr. Caiyang give me an autograph? You know I have been admiring him very much lately."
