Chapter 320 - Second Boss (2/2)
“You’ve been really busy these days haven’t you! After becoming Sarco City’s Lord, you never attended to the business in the shop anymore,” teased Tom.
Mike laughed and patted Tom’s shoulder, “Brother, you don’t have to work so hard. The shop should be replenishing its supply every day. There’s only that much equipment that could be sold in a day. You should have a good rest and focus on being the boss.”
However, Tom shook his head and said, “I have nothing to do. I don’t want to fight monsters and do quests to level up now. It’s good to improve my forging skills. At the very least, it’s a skill.”
Mike did not deny Tom’s idea. Everyone was entitled to their own opinions. Moreover, there were many people like Tom in the second world.
They were not like Mike, who knew what would happen in thirty years. For them, mastering a life skill in the second world was a good choice.
At this moment, Tom suddenly said, “Oh right, brother, the store has been doing pretty well recently. You profited a lot this time. I’ll give it to you now.”
At that time, Mike had agreed that both of them would take half of the money. Although Tom felt that Mike should take more shares, Mike insisted that they split it equally.
Now that Mike was back, Tom naturally wanted to give the money to Mike immediately.
However, Mike waved his hand and said, “Don’t give it to me this time. I’ll use this money to exchange for some of the equipment in our shop. I’m looking for some quality equipment.”
When Tom heard this, he frowned.
“What do you mean? Everything in this shop is yours. You can take as much equipment as you want!
“Besides, although I don’t know where you got so many pieces of equipment, the equipment in the warehouse increases by a lot every day. If you don’t accept the profits you earned, at least take whatever you want from the shop, on the house.”
Hearing this, Mike opened his mouth but could not find anything to refute what was just said. After a moment of silence, he said with a smile, “Alright, but you don’t have to give me my share for the time being. I’ll leave it with you for now. I see that the business is going well. Perhaps we’ll be expanding soon, and we’ll need a lot of money when that time comes.”
Tom wanted to refute, but Mike interrupted him again, “Alright, you don’t have to persuade me to keep it at all. After all, expanding the shop will allow me to earn more money. This would also be beneficial to me.”
Tom looked at Mike’s serious expression and did not insist anymore.
He just silently remembered the honorable act Mike had just done in his heart.
“The highest quality equipment is in that box. Take as much as you need.”
Tom pointed at the most exquisite box in the room. Mike did not say anything but turned to look at Egg.
Egg felt Mike’s intention and immediately pounced over happily. It opened its mouth and aimed at the box. Then, the equipment in the box flew into Egg’s mouth like dust encountering a vacuum cleaner.
Only then did Tom notice the existence of Egg.
He widened his eyes and said, “This guy… could he be a baby dragon?!”
“That’s right, his name is Egg.”
“…? Why would a dragon be named Egg?’ Tom silently questioned in his mind.
Looking at the little dragon in front of him continuously inhaling the equipment, Tom swallowed a mouthful of saliva.
If it was an NPC who saw this scene, they would definitely feel heartache. However, it was different for adventurers.
Tom was very clear that this was definitely a way to nurture this dragon.. If he could nurture this dragon, then no matter how much money he spent, it would be worth it!
