After obtaining the old man's consent, Qin Bai went over and opened the door.
In an instant, seven or eight burly men rushed in.
"Old man, the money your son owes, including interest, totals 1,344,281 yuan. It's a round number, so don't say I'm not taking care of you. I'll round it down and give you the full 1,340,000 yuan."
The old man was shocked: "Wasn't it 1.1 million last time? How come it's increased so much again?"
"Hey, this is a loan shark loan that your son signed himself. We're just following the contract. Don't make things difficult for us, old man."
"If all else fails, you can use this house as collateral. You'll get over a million for this dilapidated house; consider it a bargain!"
The old man was filled with grief and indignation, but there was nothing he could do.
Qin Bai knew it was time for him to take the stage.
"The law doesn't support usury. Even if you go to court, you won't get a single penny."
Qin Bai said with a smile.
The man in sunglasses glanced at Qin Bai and spat on the ground: "Who the hell are you? It's none of your business!"
“I am a magician who came here by accident. It was originally none of my business, but you insist on mortgaging the old man’s house. That won’t do.”
The man in sunglasses scoffed, "Magician? A fraud is a fraud. He made it sound so sophisticated, it scared me to death, hahaha!"
His underlings behind him also burst into laughter.
Qin Bai's smile remained unchanged.
"Since you're a magician, why don't you perform a magic trick for me?"
The man in sunglasses wasn't in a hurry at all; he wanted to embarrass Qin Bai in public.
The grandfather and grandson behind him looked at each other in bewilderment; they had no idea that Qin Bai was also a magician.
"What kind of magic show would you like to see?"
"See this? It's the latest iPhone 15. Make it disappear right now!"
The man in sunglasses pulled out his phone, looking smug.
His underlings behind him clearly looked envious, after all, this phone wasn't cheap.
"no problem."
Qin Bai took the iPhone 15, held it in his left palm, and deliberately covered it with his right hand, then slowly moved it away.
The iPhone 15 that was originally in his hand just disappeared in public!
This scene shocked everyone.
They'd all seen magic tricks before, but this was the first time they'd ever seen a cell phone disappear without any prior preparation.
"Holy crap, give me back my phone!"
The man in sunglasses got impatient and immediately tried to attack.
But before his hand could touch Qin Bai, Qin Bai's hand touched his first.
In the blink of an eye, all his clothes were gone, leaving him only in his underwear.
The man in sunglasses felt a chill run down his spine. He looked down and let out a scream like a woman, then hugged himself and squatted down.
"Give me back my clothes!"
The man in sunglasses almost cried.
The underlings also had strange expressions; it was the first time they had ever seen their boss like this.
Qin Bai maintained a faint smile throughout: "I still have one more act to perform. Would you like to see it...?"
"A magical transformation?"
He said the last four words in a low voice, and even deliberately took a few steps closer to them.
The group of people were so frightened that they retreated repeatedly, fearing that Qin Bai would make them disappear.
After all, Qin Bai made the phone disappear right in front of them, and then he made the sunglasses-wearing man's clothes disappear as well.
Are you sure this is magic, not sorcery?
"I remember seeing a quote online that said some magicians are actually sorcerers; they just use the name of magic to use magic!"
One of the underlings said mysteriously.
"Holy crap, we've run into him already? Could he really conjure people up like that?"
"Who knows? We're just here to collect a loan shark's debt. I don't want to disappear."
The henchmen were terrified and ran away as soon as they lifted the man in sunglasses.
"Don't run away, my iPhone 15~~~"
Qin Bai easily resolved the farce.
The old man immediately offered to help Qin Bai forge cold weapons free of charge.
If it weren't for Qin Bai, the grandfather and grandson would have been bullied terribly.
Qin Bai just entered the room to try and use his spatial ability to store living things inside, but he failed.
However, he accidentally put the birdcage into his spatial storage, which startled the bird, prompting him to realize what had happened immediately.
Sometimes, scaring someone away doesn't have to be done in such a direct way.
All he needs to do is demonstrate that his magic is truly amazing, so amazing that he can conjure up people out of thin air, and that will be enough.
The boundless possibilities in his mind truly allow him to impersonate a magician.
Seeing the expressions on the grandfather and grandson's faces, he knew they believed he really could do magic.
“Old folks, if they come again next time, please tell them that I will visit them often and perform some magic tricks for them.”
Qin Bai waved goodbye to them.
With the weapon issue resolved, the next problem to solve is the security of one's own house.
Although it was a rented house, with the apocalypse approaching, whether the house was rented or not was no longer relevant. He could easily spend some money to renovate the house.
He returned to his city and found a renovation company.
"Mr. Qin, you're looking to renovate your house, right?"
"Yes, but this time my focus is on safety. I want to create an absolutely safe house. Can you do that?"
The manager's expression was a bit strange. He had seen many kinds of clients with different renovation requirements, some who wanted to turn their homes into zoos or botanical gardens, and some who wanted to turn their homes into Iraqi-style homes. But this was the first time he had heard of someone wanting to turn their home into a safe house.
Does this mean we'll be at war someday?
However, adhering to the principle that the customer is always right, the manager didn't immediately resort to sarcasm. Instead, he said, "If you want to transform it into a safe house, the renovation costs will be..."
Qin Bai tossed the bank card over directly: "There's over 100,000 yuan in this card, consider it a deposit, is that enough?"
The manager's eyes lit up. This was just a deposit of over 100,000 yuan; this was a major client!
Of course, he had no idea that Qin Bai had no intention of paying the final payment, because the apocalypse would arrive once the safe house was completed.
Back then, money was just a pile of worthless paper!
After the two finalized the various designs for the safe house, Qin Bai left.
"Everything is ready, except for the east wind!"
Qin Bai returned to his house, leaned back on the sofa, and found himself holding a bottle of beer.
This isn't just any ordinary beer; it's a high-end imported beer. The price of just one bottle could buy a dozen ordinary beers.
"Cough cough, burp~"
Qin Bai downed his beer in one gulp, then smacked his lips: "It seems no different from regular beer, so why is it so expensive? Just because it's imported?"
Just then, his phone rang. He picked it up and saw that it was Qiao Lianyi calling.
