Chapter 587: Chapter 552: Obtaining Tavern Compensation
Da Fei gave up, but that didn’t an Skyshattering Thunder imdiately won. Just as the host was about to slam down the hamr, an NPC resolutely raised a card: "85 million!"
Ah pu! Da Fei burst into laughter! I told you so, even if I’m not competing with you, how could the NPC tycoon let you off easily? Push you to your limits, man!
And Skyshattering Thunder, poised as if the Taishan Mountain was collapsing without changing his expression, raised the card again: "90 million!"
Da Fei was struck dumb on the spot! This is crazy, I’m convinced! Damn it, so rich. Can soone tell , how did this goofball, who was bargaining with
for a crappy divine artifact just a few days ago, suddenly co up with so much money? Could it be that in this world I’m not the only one who can advance rapidly overnight? Thinking about his tactical performance in the Divine Domain Space, and now seeing his financial power displayed, Da Fei really felt an uncomfortable sharpness on his back.
At this mont, the host’s voice was already hoarse: "Ladies and gentlen, the competition has already reached its climax, will guest number 90 finally win? Let us wait and see! 90 million, first call! 90 million, second call!!"
At that mont, Da Fei’s eyes t with the mocking gaze of Skyshattering Thunder again. At that instant, Da Fei felt extrely annoyed, suddenly having a strong impulse to top him! But on second thought, this guy hid his capabilities deeply and didn’t appear as superficial as he looked. Da Fei couldn’t fall for his tricks and ultimately held back.
Tch, consider it letting you off!
—BANG!!! A hamr strike!
"Congratulations to guest number 90 for winning the bid for the restaurant! Ladies and gentlen, this auction is officially over, welco back on the 3rd, 6th, and 9th of each month!"
The venue erupted with applause. At this ti, a group of various NPCs approached Skyshattering Thunder to toast and congratulate him, then Skyshattering Thunder gave Da Fei a smug cold smile.
Damn! You’re aweso, you have the money, alright already?
Da Fei, feeling annoyed, turned and walked out the door. Just then, an attendant at the door bowed and said, "Thank you, sir, for your patronage this ti, here is a complintary admission ticket for you, and we welco you to co again."
Da Fei was surprised, an admission ticket? Damn! So does it an as long as I win a bid on an expensive item or topple soone satisfyingly at the auction house, I can get one? Alright, I’ll co again next ti, my expert-level treasure appraiser is counting on the next upgrade!
Da Fei took the admission ticket and was suddenly startled. Damn, there was a small note inside the admission ticket! Only a few words were written on the small note: "et at the usual place."
What the heck, Second Prince, Second Prince, you really have sothing to say! Yeah, I’ve faced sea monsters and Eight-Headed Snakes and New Oriental, if you had nothing to say, I was almost ready to give up on you.
But, where’s the usual place? It must be that Iron Helt Tavern’s private room again, right? Okay, let’s see how the Prince arranges the contact point, it can’t always be about soone handing over a note.
......
At this ti, having finally won the auction for the Red Ruby Restaurant, Skyshattering Thunder and Eternal Star breathed a sigh of relief.
Eternal Star smiled contentedly: "Although the price was a bit expensive, it’s still within the range Star can afford."
Skyshattering Thunder proudly said: "The key is, this is an indirect reward given to Da Fei by the Second Prince, under normal circumstances, such good things are impossible. Da Fei finally took a fall this ti!"
Eternal Star lightly smiled: "It’s not really a fall, just that he didn’t profit. Anyway, there’s no need to let others know about this, you can consider it a secret ace for us at Star, I have high hopes for you."
Skyshattering Thunder excitedly said: "Please rest assured, President, I will manage the restaurant well and aim to recoup the costs in one month!"
Eternal Star laughed: "Yes, manage it well. The Dwarf Kingdom matters depend on you. But don’t rush for quick success; money isn’t an issue, we at Star also need to learn from you and start borrowing money everywhere."
Skyshattering Thunder joined in with a laugh: "That’s called private financing! As long as we at Star start this trend, it will definitely lead the world."
Eternal Star laughingly sighed: "What I hate the most is when foreigners start copying us! After all, countries like South Korea and Japan are more united than us, which is a bit troubleso."
Skyshattering Thunder hurriedly said: "Please rest assured, President, let
carry the flag for Star’s dwarf power in the China Region and lighten your worries."
Eternal Star laughed heartily: "Good, work hard!"
......
Da Fei once again ca to the Black Crystal Stone private room on the second floor of the Iron Helt Tavern, where food and drinks had already been prepared. But Da Fei felt a sense of loss, completely out of the mood for conversation.
The room was filled with thick smoke, and the mysterious man in black reappeared: "Mr. Da Fei, the auction just now was quite spectacular."
Oh my goodness! Was it spectacular because it made a killing?! Da Fei shook his head and sighed, "I’m ashad, I’ve disappointed Your Highness."
The man in black stated seriously, "It was our oversight, we didn’t expect the Prince’s n to also be at the venue, which made it inconvenient for you to act; otherwise, the Prince would have accused you of disturbing the order of the auction."
Da Fei’s heart sank, so it was Skyshattering Thunder who ssed everything up!
The man in black continued, "However, His Highness is very satisfied with the final auction price, and very pleased with your performance. To compensate you, how about we transfer the ownership of this tavern to you?"
Da Fei got a sudden surprise: "This tavern? Iron Helt Tavern? Selling it to ?" Holy shit, so this tavern is also one of Second Prince’s properties?
The man in black nodded, "Although it’s not as good as the Red Ruby Restaurant, I think a low-key tavern is actually more convenient as a contact point. So, I have always been using this place as a contact point."
Da Fei rejoiced, "You should have said so earlier, why bother creating such a grand scene with the auction?"
The man in black was surprised, "Wasn’t it you who wanted a luxury restaurant? Such big properties worth tens of millions must be bid for publicly according to the kingdom’s rules."
Oh my goodness! So it was
who slipped up! Thinking about how his rightful benefits were snatched by others, Da Fei felt even more upset, finally understanding how Furious Sea Waves must have felt.
Thus, he sighed, "It’s a pity that such a good restaurant was acquired by the Prince’s n, it’s my fault."
The man in black casually said, "No need for regrets. There’s a problem with the kingdom: the tycoons’ extravagant wastefulness sets a bad example for the military and the public, so His Highness will discuss this issue with the king to rectify the catering industry."
Rectifying? Da Fei was speechless! Oh my goodness, this Second Prince really is sothing! But I like it, hahaha! In a flash, Da Fei felt enlightened.
The man in black added, "But such small taverns are no problem. Now, I must excuse myself. The tavern owner Malikim will soon assign you a property transfer task. Once you complete the task, you will own this tavern."
Da Fei was surprised, "I have to do a task?"
The man in black said coldly, "Of course, even a small tavern must follow the kingdom’s rules. But don’t worry, you can choose the task yourself, and Malikim will assist you fully. As for the money the prince lent you, just slowly pay it back using the tavern’s earnings. If there’s anything you need, co here and find Malikim. Goodbye!"
After speaking, he vanished into thin smoke again.
Oh my goodness! I made a killing at the auction for him, and he still insists on repaynt? But well, it’s also good, even a small pot is made of iron; I now own a business that can automatically make money for .
Just then, there was a knock on the door: "Sir, I’m Malikim, I have sothing important to ask you!"
Just in ti, I’m also short on ti.
Da Fei opened the door, and a bald dwarf, with a pleasant smile, holding a booklet, entered and got straight to the point: "Sir, the transfer of the tavern is for those capable. There are various types of transfer tasks: increasing revenue, developing new recipes, upgrading the tavern scale, enhancing reputation, please choose one."
Da Fei took the booklet and imdiately asked, "Developing new recipes? Does developing a new type of drink count?"
The bald dwarf laughed, "Of course."
Da Fei nodded, "Great, I have 500 units of Forest Spring in the barracks, a top-quality ingredient for making dicine and brewing alcohol. Can you help develop a new type of drink?"
The bald dwarf was suddenly surprised, "Forest Spring? 500 units! No problem, absolutely no problem!"
Da Fei laughed heartily, "Good, I await your good news!"
