Chapter 38 (1/2)

The reason she agreed to his request was not just about money.

She had higher aspirations and did not want to work for someone else for the rest of her life.

Steven could be a start for her and let her try to do her own thing.

A third of the harvest was a gamble.

After all, the monster tide was coming, and anyone could be eliminated.

Even if he was stronger than the others, he could still be eliminated.

Phoenix decided to gamble. She wanted to teach the Black Dragon Society a lesson.

This time, she almost lost her job. She had to let them experience the pain of her wrath.

Steven smiled and said, “Okay, I’ll wait for your good news.”

Phoenix nodded and did not say anything else. She left the floating island.

Soon, Steven received the second payment. It was a total of 80 catties, a total of 16 million.

At present, his total wealth was more than 30 million.

It could be said that even if he left the floating island now, he would be able to live a carefree life.

There were only eight days left until the novice protection period ended. Then, he had to strengthen his defenses.

This was the most important thing at the moment. He first looked at the seeds sent by Phoenix.

After some analysis, he found that they were level 3 pumpkin seeds and winter melon seeds. However, because of the high yield of these seeds, most of them were level 2 seeds.

Very few people had cultivated level 3 seeds. So he did not expect Phoenix to find rare level 3 seeds for him.

If they were cultivated, they would definitely sell for a higher price in the future.

After checking, he returned to the World Tree’s residence and gathered everyone.

Except for Fanny and Lydia, everyone else had come.

They stood where they were, staring at him with a smile on their faces.

Steven opened the bag and said with a smile, “Alice told me that she wanted to change her clothes, so I asked someone to bring some. You can choose for yourselves.”

He took out the clothes and laid them out in front of them.

This time, he asked Phoenix to bring a lot of clothes. Again, there were Bella’s small designs and sizes that she could wear.

They were thrilled and squatted down to choose.

“I like this one. This one is so beautiful.” Alice picked up an outfit with a bright smile.

Margaret picked up an outfit as well and said with a smile, “I like this one. It suits me very well.”

Bella’s clothes were not selective. They were all children’s clothes, but they were all wonderful. She liked them very much.

After a while, they had all chosen the clothes that they liked. No one argued, and the atmosphere was very harmonious.

At the same time, there was another person who was not happy at all. That was Marcus.

He had spent a lot of money to get the people in the association to think of a way to deal with Steven.

It was not easy to find a bodyguard who could enter Steven’s space, but in the end, he failed!

“How did you find someone? You don’t even know how to grasp such a good opportunity. Are you going to let my money go down the drain?”

He communicated with the contact in the video, his face gloomy.

Opposite him was a big man with a full face of beard, he carefully apologized, “I’m sorry, Mr. Marcus. The main reason is that we don’t have too much information about the other party. We don’t know how powerful the other party is, so we made a mistake. I hope you can give me another chance. I will do it well. I won’t let you down.”

Marcus snorted, “I’ll give you another chance. You have to seize it well. If you fail, you don’t have to stay in the association anymore.”

“Yes, yes, yes, I know. I’ll take care of it,” he answered affirmatively.

Marcus hung up the phone. His face was still ashen.
