In the ten months that she had gone missing, the most tired person was Renee. She was the fiancee that was publicly acknowledged by everyone. It was easy to write the word, but it was too difficult to actually write it!
That day, the Spatial Beast teleported to the west gate with little Jiujiu. After handing the child to Ji Ang, it teleported away without even saying a word. When it returned to the Shattered Desert, what it saw were countless mages activating the seismic wave. It was not clear whether these mages were from Sandstorm Looting Regiment or their enemies.
The entire sandstorm collapsed, and upon seeing this scene, the Sandstorm Raider cheered excitedly. This time, the Spatial Beast knew who these Sha Masters were.
The Spatial Beast sensed that the normal people were no longer here and was not worried about him. However, it was furious at the treachery of the Sandstorm Raider, so it ran to their city and placed a dimensional spatial gate, causing the entire city to collapse in an instant. Countless beasts fell from the alternate dimension and rampaged through the city, and by the time the Sandstorm Raider arrived, the place had already turned into a pile of rubble.
The Spatial Beast did not know that in order to vent its anger on the normal people, it had even provoked a huge enemy for him. After opening a dimensional door, it ran back to West Level Close. After returning, it found out that Ordinary had not come back, so it and Ji Ang brought the child back to the Capital.
Her daughter was completely unharmed. Lady Liz finally revealed a smile, but after waiting for a few days and not seeing any ordinary people, Lady Liz's heart started to rise again, Ji Ang sent people to check on the Shattered Rock Desert. They found the base of the Sandstorm Raider, but it was now in ruins, and the Sandstorm Raider had long since disappeared.
Three days and five days passed without anyone thinking too much about it, but after more than a month had passed and Ordinary had still yet to return, everyone's hearts had already reached their throats. Tiffana called the Spatial Beast to the side and asked for a little more, it no longer felt the normal mental connection, but it was certain that Ordinary was still alive. There were two possibilities behind the current situation.
Tiffana had a feeling that ordinary people would be trapped in some place for the time being. For this reason, she had even personally made a trip to the Stone-breaking Desert, but she did not find any clues.
Ji Family and Emperor had both issued bounties and sent out a large number of people to search for the whereabouts of the normal people. However, after a month of searching, there was still no news.
First, the Emperor had started to frequently interact with the Black Dragon Tegel. Now, the Emperor had already known that his two daughters had some unknown relationship with Tegel, and after learning about what had happened from the Demon Dragon, he announced that he would marry his two daughters to the Demon Dragon Tegel, and bled profusely for this reason, bestowing a countless amount of treasures to the Demon Dragon. In order to pull his heart, it was finally time for the Emperor's most beloved son, Orix, to go up on stage.
's mount, the huge wolf at the eighth step, had also become Tiger's dessert. If not for the fact that Orix ran away quickly, the Demon Dragon would have roasted him whole. With this, Emperor had no choice but to temporarily send Fifth Prince away to use his time to lessen the Demon Dragon's anger. He ordered the two princesses to use their best efforts to heal the Demon Dragon, and to prepare another move.
At the same time Emperor made his move, his Ji Family also became interested in the businesses that he had left behind. At this time, Old Duke Ji and his wife had already returned to Phoenix City, Ji Ang had also returned to the West Level Pass, so the matter of Ji Family was temporarily under the responsibility of the next Patriarch, Ji Chu.
Without being the boss, one would not know how expensive the firewood and rice were. When Ji Chu took over, he realized that handling the expenses of eating and drinking for the thousand people in Ji Family was a very complicated and troublesome matter. After taking over the chores, his mother, Erincia, immediately went to discuss it with Madam Liz. She said that the Duke Mansion s were very expensive now, could Madam Liz take care of the expenses of the Phoenix Guard s that were guarding the Princess Residence?
When Erincia left, they immediately went through all of Erincia's words without missing a single word. This made the Phoenix Guard feel like they were being abandoned, and then they got Lady Liz to announce that from today onwards, Phoenix Guard's salary and various benefits would be raised by twofold, and this time, the Phoenix Guard's loyalty towards the Ji Family would be completely transferred to Lady Liz.
However, she didn't have that much money in her hands, but she immediately went to find Madam Liz to prepare to have her pay and increase the treatment for the Phoenix Guard s in the Ji Family. In the end, she did not see Madam Liz again, and the Phoenix Guard in the manor spoke honestly and impolitely, in order to prevent the last time the little princess was robbed, His Highness Virgin Mary did not receive anyone from now on, and did not allow anyone to enter the manor. Even the Emperor and his wife were no exception!
After eating the closed door broth, Erincia greatly hated them, even Ji Chu felt that Liz had overdone it. Although since ancient times, Phoenix Guard s of the Ji Family have never been raised by others, and what their own mother did is a little underhanded, but you are also a part of the Ji Family, and your family can take advantage of the human value to raise dozens of Phoenix Guard s, it shouldn't be a problem. Why must you raise the treatment of them to go against your own mother!
Ji Chu wrote a letter to Ji Ang, telling him to properly advise Madam Liz against choosing families based on his own money. After Ji Ang accepted the letter, he was also very angry, one was because Erincia did it so arrogantly, and actually kicked out the Phoenix Guard from Liz's residence, and the other was because Madam Liz did not know how to settle the matter, and actually gave the Phoenix Guard an increased treatment. As a result, he wrote a letter, telling Erincia to take back the Phoenix Guard, and also allow Liz to pay a portion of the money to improve the treatment of all the Phoenix Guard.
After the letter was delivered to Madam Liz, Liz found it difficult to accept. This amount of money could definitely be spent, but if this money came to her, then it would truly be a waste. In the end, she gave her an idea, saying that all the expenses of the princess' residence were provided by the normal people, so Erincia could go to the normal people to ask for it.
Erincia immediately went to the Count's house to ask for money. As a Countess, Renee received this old lady who seemed kind or evil, but after hearing that Erincia had come to ask for money, Renee still gave her a lot of face. She immediately pulled out a sum of money to give to her. After taking over the normal household chores, Renee finally understood what a rich person was. Every month, her family account would have tens of millions of gold coins lying on the ground, and as a result, she gave this money to Erincia to settle the score.
The result was bad. Seeing that Renee, the future daughter-in-law who just entered the sect, had over 10 million gold coins in her hands, Erincia became jealous, and immediately contacted her seniors, she thought of an ingenious plan to tell them, and these people went back to pressure their husbands. Not long later, Peaceman realised that their trade was not easy, the orders for the goods had been reduced, and the cost of the raw materials had sharply increased.
Peaceman had personally visited to discuss with Erincia what she wanted to do, so he wanted to find out what she wanted to do. In the end, Erincia said that he didn't know, but the meaning behind those words was, if he wanted to solve this problem, then he would have to give half of the businesses under ordinary names to Ji Family. Although it was said that it was to give Ji Family, in reality, it was only given to her.
In the end, they came up with a method, which was to sell the produced goods out to the sect, and no longer supply the Capital s. In the end, not long after this plan was carried out, they discovered that the road had started to become unpeaceful, and more than half of the goods that were shipped out had been taken away.
They had no choice but to hire mercenaries to protect them. In the end, if any accidents were to happen, none of the mercenaries were willing to accept their mission, but when Peaceman came out to ask, the mercenary organizations did not hide anything and directly told him that with the reputation and kindness the ordinary counts had in the mercenary world, even if they did not pay him, they would still help. But Ji Family had secretly said that they would not be allowed to take on any normal jobs, that was a family matter for Ji Family.
With Capital spread crazily, all the people he offended in the past were already dead, and in the past, they all wanted to make a move on him, so all those that he had offended in the past would belong to him now, and whoever stole his things would have their own hands too. With their hands being fast and slow, in this way, an explosion occurred, regardless of whether it was the supermarkets, restaurants, or factories, all of them had experienced an accident.
Now, Peaceman was extremely busy and had to deal with this everyday. Fortunately, most of the workers in Barton's factory employed dwarves, so there were not many problems on Barton's side that could free up the manpower to help him deal with these problems.
After he returned and saw Renee, Renee broke out in tears the moment he saw her. She had been exhausted in these ten months, and when she had finished crying and told him about her family's matters, he listened to her with a smile, comforted her a little, and then explained everything he had done these past ten months to Renee. Renee was pleasantly surprised by what he had done, and asked a bunch of ordinary questions, until he finally shut his mouth.
On the second day, when he woke up and saw normal people, every man and woman in the house screamed repeatedly. When Peaceman saw normal people, he could not help but hug them tightly and wail: "Praise the supreme God of Light, my dear master, my god, my soul, my young master, I knew you would not abandon your humble servant. It's good that you're back, you're finally back!"
After that, it was as if Peaceman was weeping and complaining. He looked at Peaceman who was nagging like a resentful wife, and lightly patted his shoulder: "Alright, Peaceman, stop howling, if there is anything else, I will take care of it."
After greeting them, he brought a few people with him to the secret room to discuss the situation. Peaceman then reported the situation of the last ten months to normal, after finishing all of them, he looked at him eagerly, waiting for normal people to come up with an idea.
He indifferently asked: "Peaceman, didn't you secretly go to the Sabelas Family to seek help?"
Peaceman snorted: "Of course they are, but they didn't help us in any way!"
He didn't know if he was dead or alive, but it was likely that the Sabelas Family wished for all of the properties in Peaceman's possession to collapse. As long as all of them collapsed, then Sabelas Family which possessed the same technology would be the biggest winner. Thus, they could completely understand as they sat and watched.
Barton stroked his beard and asked: "Young Master, what do you plan to do now?"
"We'll talk about this later. I'll tell you guys where I've been these ten months." After that, he narrated his ten months of experience to them. When he finished, everyone was stunned. Susan asked in confusion, "Master, is that Windfire Island really as good as you said it was?" On the other hand, Barton was more concerned about the fire eye, he pondered deeply, but he did not know what the heck he was planning.
"Alright, let's talk about my plan now, I'm preparing to move everything here to the Windfire Island. Now I finally understand, the Emperor of the Empire, Old Man, is scheming against me more and more, and of course, I can't blame him, but he actually changed me. With such a powerful force by my side, I'm afraid I won't be able to fall asleep."
He then took out a map from his chest pocket and spread it out, "This is the map of the Windfire Island. I have already placed a Teleportation Array there.
Just as he was speaking, Sakov ran in from outside to report, "Young Master, Regimental Commander, this worker is here to cause trouble again."
He humphed calmly and said, "Peaceman, go out and tell them that according to the contract you signed with them, they will be paid the remaining half a year's worth of wages. Afterwards, cancel the contract with them, and you will do this!"
After Peaceman heard this, he said in heartache, "Young Master, all of these were built with great difficulty, do you really have to do this?" He coldly looked at him and said: "Peaceman, do you know why you can't build a strong business here? This is because you are indecisive, and you are unwilling to give it up when you should! " After Peaceman heard this, he did not say anything else and turned to leave.
After Peaceman left, he let the people at home make preparations for Renee to pack his stuff. When Susan went to pack up the equipment at the clothing workshop, Barton went to organize the dwarves to clean up his factory. When Adam led a group of people to the restaurant and supermarket, Tiffana came.
The moment Tiffana saw Ordinary Jun kicking and biting him, he immediately became coquettish after seeing him leave for ten months. After being warm with her for a while, she told her about his situation once again, and after hearing it, Tiffana's eyes lit up. She immediately went back home to pack her things and prepare to go to Windfire Island.
When Madam Liz heard that he had come, she became extremely excited. The whole Princess Mansion immediately turned into a mess, and all the spies in the Mansion reported the news to their respective masters.
At the same time, the entire industry that belonged to Capital started to go into chaos. First, Peaceman came out and announced that these workers would be paid according to the contract until the end of the contract, without losing a single cent of their wages. He told them to bring the contract here to collect money. The workers were all dumbfounded. They only wanted Peaceman to resume production because they were being used by others, but they did not expect that they would even lose their jobs this time around.
Without waiting for them to protest, a thick cloud of smoke rose. The heaven they built for shopping was on fire, the city guards rushed over to put out the fire, but were stopped by Adam. Adam said that we set the fire, and my master returned.
Soon after, a huge fire started in the restaurant, another group of city guards also received the same response from Sakov, then Barton's factory also started burning, followed by Susan's clothes workshop, in a short while, the entire city was covered in smoke and shock, they had received news, the count of the Slime who had disappeared for ten months had returned, but what they did not understand was, why did the Count come back and burn down all his businesses, did he not want to live anymore?
After the news spread to the Imperial Palace, the Demon Dragon who was currently entangled with two princesses immediately ran back to look for Xian Pingfan, while the old Emperor, who was completely confused, called all of his subordinates over to discuss tactics., the chief Archmage of the Imperial Palace, who knew the most about Xian Pingfan, sighed as he told the emperor: Xian Pingfan is a man who does things to the extreme. When the emperor heard this, his face turned pale with fright. He immediately ordered for an urgent meeting with the commoners.
