Chapter 747: The Bai Xiaofei You Know Is Back! (1/2)
Bai Xiaofei looked around and immediately understood. The soldiers did not stop people who were scattered or dressed poorly, but especially targeted big groups. The meaning of this couldn’t be more obvious.
“Official, we are a branch of the Illusion Demon Merchant Group and I’m the leader. This is a little gift of gratitude, I hope it can let you enjoy some good wine.” Bai Xiaofei fawningly walked to their captain and, very naturally, put two gold coins in his hand.
Looking at the gold coins, the captain’s eyes lit up as his icy expression turned into that of satisfaction.
“So it’s the boss of the Illusion Demon Merchant Group branch. Please proceed. If you encounter any trouble in the city, you can always use my name: Qin San.” The captain conveniently offered a favor as he waved Bai Xiaofei’s group along.
What he didn’t notice was that at the moment when Bai Xiaofei and he brushed shoulders, a dog paw stretched out from nothingness and slashed with its claw.
“I’d be damned, our stingy Brother Fei actually spent his money on bribery!” After entering the city, Mo Ka could not help but diss Bai Xiaofei a little.
“And I told you to train your perception.” Wang Hang sneered and pointed at Bai Xiaofei, where everyone saw Huskie proudly wagging his tail while showing off the captain’s coin pouch dangling on his paw.
“5 gold and 32 silver, more than twice the return. You have done well. Two gold coins will be used to buy you treats, I’ll help you keep them,” said Bai Xiaofei righteously as he stowed the said two gold coins into his own money pocket.
Seeing this scene, Mo Ka’s surprise turned into a sigh. “Ahh, it seems we still have to be careful about Brother Fei!”
“Pay attention to your current identity,” whispered Duan Yiyi who came up from behind and shot Mo Ka a glare.
Mo Ka immediately fixed his manner. Besides Bai Xiaofei, he currently listened to Duan Yiyi’s words most.
“Yes, Young Miss, this subordinate knows my mistake.” He solemnly bowed towards her.
“I’ll only give you this one chance. Mess up again and you can pack your stuff!” said Duan Yiyi coldly, fully displaying the bearing of a young miss. As expected of someone who graduated from the acting course with full marks!
“Yiyi, do not make a fuss. That is not how a lady should act!” Bai Xiaofei scolded.
Duan Yiyi stuck out her tongue. Meanwhile, the rest realized one thing: from this moment on, they had to completely adapt to their new identities!
“Fang Ye, take the madams and ladies to find a comfortable inn and check if there are any good business opportunities around while you’re at it. We did not travel thousands of miles to return empty-handed.” Bai Xiaofei looked at Fang Ye.
Bai Xiaofei nodded with satisfaction before turning to Wang Hang and Wu Chi.
“Wang Hang, Wu Chi, you two follow me. The rest escort the madams and ladies.”
With that, the group divided into two. Fang Ye led a large team toward the largest inn in Starflame – the Fragrant House, while Bai Xiaofei took Wang Hang and Wu Chi to the shopping district. Businessmen naturally had to act like businessmen. Moreover, considering the particularity of Blood Diamonds, they should gain something there.
After all, those who were watching Starnet also need an appropriate identity!
“Fifty thousand gold coins!”
“Fifty thousand gold coins for this peak-grade Blood Diamond? You must be out of your mind. One hundred thousand!”
