Home in another world

Chapter 16 The Legendary Little Dispute

Under Lin Yue's questioning, the fat man told the truth.It turned out that he had inquired about an old magician who was good at magic circles, but the old man had a weird temper and lived in a poor area. Moreover, when the fat man came to him, he met another group of people who wanted to win him over.

The old man said without discrimination: Most of the houses in the slums are seriously damaged, and whoever can solve this problem will go with him.

The capital is extremely prosperous, but the slums scattered around the capital are still poor.After all, there are homeless people coming to the capital all the time, no matter how big the place is, it can't accommodate this huge flow of people. It is the utmost benevolence to divide a slum area outside.

To rebuild or renovate hundreds of thousands of houses in the slums, it is difficult even to mobilize the army, so the other group turned away as soon as they heard this condition.

But Fatty never knew what difficulties were.Without saying a word, he went straight to the dilapidated mercenary guild in the slums, and released a large-scale mission that could be joined by a team. The reward for the mission was a total of 100 million gold coins.

Under the heavy reward, almost the entire slum area was moved upon hearing the news. Those who registered in the mercenary guild immediately took up the task, and those who did not register also worked enthusiastically for the people they knew well.

In just seven days, the entire slum area became well-organized. According to the plan of the old magician, a lot of basic drainage and fire prevention measures were added, and a small central square was built, as if it had become a small city.

A troubadour temporarily stationed in the slums called this change the "seven-day miracle", and compiled it into a bard and sang it quickly.After this news spread to the capital, it attracted many curious nobles to travel with their companions, which was extremely lively.

Lin Yue couldn't help being a little depressed: Why does the god of luck favor Fatty so much?The 100 million was worth it—not only did he invite an old magician who seemed to be very powerful, but he also became a "miracle" creator.

Lin Yue patted Fatty's shoulder lightly: "You came here to tell me this?"

The fat man was frightened by the ferocious smile on his face, and quickly said: "No, it's old Mr. Worf who wants to see you. He said he wants you to explain the whole 'printing' process to him face to face." This old Mr. Worf is He spent 100 million to hire "technical talents".

"No problem." Lin Yue agreed, "I'll go to your place after I test the students in the afternoon. You haven't moved yet, have you?"

"Of course I didn't move. The mayor also said that he would sell the town to me. I think it's good. I will sign a contract with him another day." The fat man's eyes lit up: "In that case, the whole town will be ours!"

Lin Yue felt strange: "How could someone near the capital dare to cede the town without authorization?" Although the town was not very big and relatively remote, it was marked on the map after all, so it was impossible to sell it just by saying it.

The fat man has always had his eyes darkened on these things: "I don't know. But the mayor seems to have said a little bit, it seems to be because of the slums."

Lin Yue understood that Fatty's 100 million was too beautifully spent. Not only did he become famous among the people, but also some people from above paid attention to him.If he fiddles with the printing system again, his title of only baron will definitely be raised.

Lin Yue has always felt guilty about the failure of Fatty's strategy, and he was naturally happy to see Fatty have such good luck.After all, it was only by chance that he met Argus, Fang, and Long Ears, and it was only his responsibility to help the students in class three find their way out. Only the fat man was provoked by him.If you judge by the standard of the group of sisters who hugged loli on the left and hugged the sisters on the right, then only the fat man is his own son... Lin Yue suddenly felt a chill.

He can't bear such a big son...

Getting rid of the terrible thought in his mind, Lin Yue asked Fatty to taste the fresh cold drink made by Chang Er.Freshness is of course for the people here, and for Lin Yue, it is nothing more than an ordinary thing. For example, the cup in front of the fat man is refined from the milk of wild bulls, flower candies, and various fruits. "ice cream".

Since the species here are somewhat intersected with the earth but are very different, and Lin Yue has no books such as "World Recipes", he is completely unable to help in the development of dishes.But the long ears are very powerful, just listening to Lin Yue's description of the taste of food can imitate things that are almost the same.

What surprised Lin Yue the most was that through these days of communication, he knew that people here generally don't treat eggs as food.Because every race and even species here grows to a certain stage before their talents appear, and they are afraid that they will kill things that are of great use to them.And people don't know how to raise livestock, and the meat is usually brought back by adventurers for sale, and then there are hunting monsters that attack the manor.

But Fang Fang and Chang Er didn't even eat meat, so Lin Yue naturally wouldn't push them to engage in animal husbandry, since he didn't need to rely on it to make money anyway.

Seeing that the fat man scooped up the platter-style ice cream mixed with four flavors of hazelnut, sweet fruit, snow fruit, and pear, Lin Yue sighed in admiration: "According to the way you eat, why are you not fat?" return?"

The fat man said excitedly: "You also think I'm not fat now?"

Lin Yue: "..."

After he was overjoyed, the fat man asked where he bought the cold drink, and he was going to poach people.

At this moment, Chang Er walked out without making a sound, put the latest "ice cream" in front of Lin Yue, and then walked back to the kitchen at the back - without looking at the fat man from the beginning to the end.

The fat man flinched: "Why is it suddenly cold in the room?"

Lin Yue gloated: "You can try to dig your long ears back home."

"I still don't want it anymore." The fat man said aggrievedly.Although he was relatively slow, he also knew that this guy named Chang Er didn't like him very much.If Lin Yue hadn't let him in last time, I'm afraid he wouldn't be able to get in this time either.

Seeing that the fat man seemed a little hurt by his long-eared attitude, Lin Yue asked, "Are you really going to buy that town?"

The fat man is gearing up: "Of course I want to buy it! It can cost half of my money!"

Lin Yue resisted the urge to beat someone, and seriously discussed with the fat man: "Then I will rent a manor with you, and I will supply goods to Chang Er and the others in the future. With Chang Er's personality, he probably doesn't want to talk to others. For those who deal with each other, it’s okay to eat by yourself now, and the ingredients are easy to get. When the store opens, it will be different, and it will be purchased like flowing water. It is best to manage a manor by yourself, once and for all.”

The fat man was stunned for a while, and it took him a long time to realize: "You guys want to open a store? Why didn't I know?"

This is endless to explain.Lin Yue frowned, and said casually: "You don't have to worry about it, it's none of your business. If you agree to rent or not, it's fine?"

"What to rent, I'll give it to you directly!"

"Friends are friends, and money is money."

The fat man was dissatisfied: "But..."

Lin Yue felt that this was a matter of principle: "No, but it's the same if you don't rent it and I can rent it elsewhere." Originally, he had planned this matter a long time ago, and he chose the place in order to ease the relationship between Fatty and Chang Er. over there.

The fat man lowered his head and said nothing.

Lin Yue narrowed his eyes: "Fatty?"

The fat man quickly huddled together and turned into a ball shape: "You opened the store without telling me, and you refused to own the manor..." His shoulders shrugged, and he seemed to be sobbing again.

"... Fatty, can you be a little bit promising..."

"You don't tell me anything, it doesn't matter if you have me or not..."

It didn't matter at all!Can he pretend to be more pitiful?Lin Yue gritted his teeth: "Do you think you are still the same meatball? Don't be too ugly for such a big person crying like this!"

The fat man was wronged: "You didn't tell me..."

Facing the fat man who was begging for nothing, Lin Yue could only tell him the whole story of opening the shop.The whole matter was too complicated. At the end, Lin Yue's mouth was parched, so he stopped caring about the fat man who was staring at him seriously thinking, and devoted himself to solving the new cold drink brought out by his long ears.

Halfway through the meal, the fat man seemed to have suddenly figured it out: "That's not right! You also gave the money directly to Fang Fang and Long Ear! They used your money to open the shop!"

Lin Yue didn't raise his head: "I can spend my money as I like."

"That's not right! You can be like them, so you have to tell me apart!" The fat man seemed to want to shrink into a ball again: "It's obvious that I knew you first!"

"It has nothing to do with the time we met. My principle is not to spend other people's money." Lin Yue still remembers that he and a friend used to be so close that they couldn't distinguish each other. As a result, once there was a dispute, the other party asked him to return all the things he had used. Going back—Knowing that he was so difficult at that time that he didn't even have the confidence to say "pay it back", knowing that he had a strong self-esteem, but he still said those things that made him extremely embarrassing in public.Although he was only twelve or thirteen years old at that time, Lin Yue still remembers the feeling of being ashamed under the eyes of everyone.From then on, he understood that no matter how good a friend is, he must pay his dues clearly!Lin Yue tightly squeezed the short spoon in his hand, feeling that the fire in his heart was aroused: "If you are in a hurry to use up the money, just sprinkle it on the street, and make sure someone picks it up immediately, don't send it to me deliver."

Seeing Lin Yue's expression changed, the fat man panicked.Even though he offended Argus by saying the wrong thing last time, Lin Yue just kept his face cold, but this time Lin Yue's eyes were wrong, as if he was really annoyed.The fat man quickly sat up, smiling all over his face: "Rent! Let's rent as soon as the town is handed over! How much land do you want? How much is the rent? You decide."
