"Huh? I did do what you call tomb raiding, but what kind of job is a captain? And what are feng shui and meteorology anyway?"
"Captain, don't be modest, tell us about your experiences raiding tombs underground!"
"Hehe, underground, a shovel conquers the world! Don't let my weak appearance during the day fool you, at night, hehe, who can find me!" (With self-righteous confidence)
"That's some incredible talent, absolutely amazing!"
"Oh, right, when I was digging my way out, I heard that a ferocious little fox came to the East District and killed Simba the Lion King. Could it be you... Wow~ that's amazing!"
Witnessing a tomb raider and a street-fighting fox living together in harmony and exchanging compliments, Blood Raven's lips twitched.
Caught off guard, he was left with a bewildered feeling that "only a sand sculpture can fight against a sand sculpture."
"Haha~ What an interesting little fox." Natasha covered her mouth and chuckled, her laughter ringing out like silver bells.
"boom!"
The cracked earthen cave began to undulate again, and several swift and decisive figures darted out, unleashing magical energy, and serpentine chains appeared in the void.
Seeing this, Black Crow abandoned the talkative Xiao Han, took a few unsteady steps, pushed open the door of the Dark Crow Guild, and ran away.
"This idiot escaped and won't fill the hole. Let's see where he runs off to. Catch him!"
At the entrance, a group of city management guards dressed in tight-fitting clothes, who were already on guard, caught Black Crow. As the latter struggled desperately, they dragged him back to the tunnel they had dug themselves. Under the helpless gazes of his guildmates, despair finally showed on his face.
"Big brother, I was wrong. I'll never do it again, really!"
"You want a next time?! I'll beat you up first!"
The leading city management guard reprimanded, then addressed the guild members: "I apologize, everyone, but we need to trouble this guy to come with us. We hope you can understand."
"That's no problem at all. Have a safe trip."
Natasha waved and watched as Black Crow was dragged away, filling in the tunnel before leaving, showing great manners.
"Alright, our new member, is there anything you want to ask? Big sister here has everything~"
Natasha reverted to her seductive side, squeezing out her snow-white cleavage, her incredibly voluptuous figure and alluring face making her utterly devastating.
"Speaking of questions that I don't understand, I do have one."
Faced with such ferocious evil, the novice little fox raised its little hand.
Are there any newbie benefits for joining a guild?
Upon hearing this, Natasha smiled slightly, pursed her lips, and remained silent. Blood Raven shrugged, looking as if he "understood the newbie."
"Smack!"
On the ceiling, a crystal chandelier that was clearly a cheap decoration suddenly exploded.
"So, you mean there isn't one?"
Xiao Han's face stiffened as he met the other person's increasingly gloomy expression, and finally uttered these words.
"Smack!"
The gate closed, and Xiao Han, who had been sent out, stared at the tightly shut gate of the Dark Raven Guild, remaining silent for a long time.
There aren't even any newbie perks, so I'll give it a bad review.
On the fifth-floor window of the Dark Raven Guild, a graceful figure watched the adorable little fox leave, then took a sip of lemon tea before the lace-trimmed curtain was drawn.
...
In the hazy night, only the starry sky stood out clearly and brightly.
Xiao Han's dominance over the eastern district of the street has finally provoked a counterattack from the higher-ups in Titan City.
One of the three major powers, the Gubang family.
Perhaps even they didn't expect that Xiao Han would defeat Simba, the Lion King, conquer the East District of the Street, and subdue the gray forces in just one week, so that with a wave of his hand, he could command a hundred responses.
Inside a private room of a luxurious restaurant, exquisite dishes, fruits and vegetables, juices and wines were laid out in abundance.
"The agreement is roughly as described."
The weasel wrote out an agreement and handed it to the little fox across the street who was munching on a chicken leg.
"A monthly tax of five hundred silver shells? That's outrageous!"
Xiao Han casually glanced at the contents of the agreement, took a bite of chicken, and frowned.
"No, no, this is considered low. You should know that the previous Simba paid us six hundred silver coins a month."
The weasel rubbed his hands together, squinted slightly, and replied, "The young clan leader has taken a liking to your potential, so he has decided to exempt you from taxes of one hundred silver coins. If you manage things well, a high-ranking position in the Gu Bang family will be within your grasp."
"Yawn~"
Xiao Han took a sip of the greenish-blue wine, which was sweet and sour, but unfortunately, the guy he saw made him a little annoyed.
His envious expression, as if to say, "You got a great deal, you made a killing!" made him look even more sleazy.
"A tax of five hundred silver shells is really heavy."
Xiao Han sighed and smiled.
If one were to lend money at a low interest rate, the chance of saving 500 silver coins in a month would be extremely slim.
Converted to days, that means you need to earn an average of seventeen silver coins per day.
This also includes his underlings who rely on him for their livelihood. As the boss, he can't let them go hungry and then have them pay him back, can he?
Of course, this is only a way to barely be considered a legitimate business operation.
What is the purpose of lending money at exorbitant interest rates?
They turned those borrowers into slaves, and the slave trade was several times more profitable than the normal way of making money; it was a huge windfall.
Why did Simba in The Lion King possess thousands of silver coins, villas, restaurants, beautiful women, and power? Wasn't all of these obtained by trading slaves?
Why did Huang Bao, whom we encountered at the beginning, blatantly threaten civilians, and why couldn't even the city management guards intervene?
"Ahem, could you please inform the person behind you?"
Facing the weasel's "win-win" face, Xiao Han smiled slightly.
