Volume Two: The Two-Headed Dragon Kiki Chapter 127: The Day of the Final Battle
Chapter 127 The Day of Decisive Battle (Part 1)
Lina shook her head blankly. Azzaro said he would take her out when he let her in, so Lina kept waiting stupidly.
"Use your mental power to try to connect to the outside world." Gu Nansheng closed his eyes. This was the method he used to enter the life gem, and the method he expected was similar.
Lina closed her eyes and did as Gu Nansheng said. Soon her vision blurred, and the next moment, the two of them appeared in Gu Nansheng's bedroom.
When she first arrived in a strange environment, Lina was a little panicked.
The decoration of Gu Nansheng's room is also high-end, and it is very neat under the care of the servants.
It was already twelve o'clock in the night, and Gu Nansheng dialed Karin's communication crystal, "Karin?"
"Come here, there is a little girl. You can make arrangements for her. Take her to the kitchen and see if there is anything to eat and make some for her."
"Also, leave a message for me at the Enchanter's Guild. If Azzaro comes, tell him my address."
When Gu Nansheng was talking to Karin, Lina found Qiqi sleeping soundly on the bed. At this moment, the little girl's eyes lit up. She tiptoed to Qiqi's side, leaned down, and looked at her with her big eyes.
Qiqi looked up and down.
After a while, she finally couldn't bear her curiosity and carefully poked Qiqi's navel with her little hand.
Qiqi's fat body twisted a bit, scratched the place where Lina's fingers had poked with his hind paws, stuck out his tongue and licked his mouth, turned over, and rubbed his head on the pillow.
Keep sleeping.
Now Lina became happy, and the sadness of not being able to see the teacher before was gone. If she wasn't afraid of waking up Qiqi, she really wanted to hold it in her arms.
At this time, Karin arrived. She knocked on the door and came in. She saw little Lina lying on Gu Nansheng's bed playing with Qiqi. She was slightly confused. Could it be that her boss had a pedophile hobby?
Of course she would not ask stupidly, and without any expression on her face, she saluted respectfully, "Hello, Mr. Gu."
Gu Nansheng was a little surprised to see Karin dressed neatly and arriving very quickly: "It's so late, haven't you changed clothes and gone to bed? You put down the communication crystal and rushed here."
"I'm not sleepy, there are some things I haven't finished." Karin often works until early in the morning, so she doesn't take off her clothes to go to bed until twelve o'clock. She is a very strong and ambitious woman, and Gu Nansheng gave her this opportunity. Of course she will
Cherish, the operation of the commercial city involves a lot of work, such as purchasing, such as billing, such as inventory, such as administrative personnel, such as sales strategy, any matter involving large sums of money, Karin must do everything, to put it bluntly, she does not trust anyone under her
.Who can be without a little bit of greed?
Moreover, there have been serious thefts in supermarkets recently, and some clever customers have "randomly" changed the price tags. These headaches have to be dealt with by Karin. Gu Nansheng copied some of Earth's business strategies and became a hands-off shopkeeper. Karin can't bear this.
It's a sin.
After all, on Earth, those business strategies have been refined and improved many times, but here, all the business systems are incomplete, and Gu Nansheng doesn't understand management, so everything has to be "explored" by Karin. For example,
She formulated many systems to limit the power of purchasing personnel and prevent them from taking kickbacks. She also established some supervision systems to clean up several cashiers who engaged in corruption.
She works for more than ten hours every day and has lost several pounds in two months.
"Don't be too tired. Well, you can make some arrangements for this little girl."
"Not tired." In fact, saying she is not tired is a lie, but Karin's words come from her heart. Although her days are hard now, she enjoys them. In the past, she had no chance to work hard, so she could only be exhausted.
She circulated among the rich and powerful, worrying about her mother's medical expenses every day, living like a beggar. But now, she is already a high-ranking commercial city manager, traveling in the upper class, and the aristocratic young masters she once acted to please
Now I have to please her in turn. This feeling of elation and elation cannot be described as "refreshing"...
Gu Nansheng suddenly remembered the issue of purchasing materials, "Well, how much money is left on the account?"
"Fifty-two thousand six hundred gold coins, which is cash. There are also 2,800 gold coins in arrears for advertising and land leases that have not been recovered. In addition, we still have debts of 8,600 gold coins that have not been paid off."
Gu Nansheng was secretly surprised. He remembered that when he left, he had a total of about 100,000 gold coins on his books. He spent about 70,000 gold coins on buying materials, upgrading gems and scrolls. Now that Commercial City includes debts and arrears, he still has nearly 50,000 gold coins.
gold.
In other words, under Karin's management, the commercial center has earned more than 10,000 gold coins this month. Under the competition from the Jones family and her absence, the business in the commercial city has only dropped a little. Karin has indeed contributed a lot.
.
In fact, although the Jones family copied Gu Nansheng's business model, the management was immature, thefts of supermarket goods were more serious, and various personnel were corrupt and lost money, so that their sales costs have been unable to come down, resulting in the supermarket items in their Chengnan Commercial Center
The price is slightly more expensive than the Northwest Business Center run by Karin.
"Good job." Gu Nansheng praised it, "Thank you for your hard work. If you need money, just take it from there. In addition, I will come up with more than 10,000 gold coins to buy some magic paint and white scrolls. I want to use them. List
Just buy what you bought last time.”
Karin didn't have time to be happy after hearing the first sentence. The second sentence almost made her cry. Ten thousand gold coins? Listening to Gu Nansheng's indifferent tone, the corners of Karin's mouth twitched hard. If you don't live in the family, you don't know how expensive firewood and rice are. Boss
I really thought that money was collected all over the place. It costs 80,000 gold coins in more than a month. Even the Jones family cannot afford it.
The nearly 50,000 gold coins in this book were all saved by her hard work. She was planning to apply to Gu Nansheng in a few days to buy a piece of land in the south of the city and invest in a small piece of real estate. She had already drawn up a specific plan.
She even contacted the Mountain Giant Construction Team, but Gu Nansheng said that it would be delayed by at least a month.
She asked cautiously with hope, "Mr. Gu, I just bought more than 10,000 gold coins of white scrolls and magic paint two days ago. Isn't it enough?" Karin asked this, fearing that Gu Nansheng would not be able to use it.
He was happy and added, "Maybe it's not suitable for use? I'm afraid that if I spend another 10,000 gold coins, I will still buy something that is not suitable for use."
"No, I have used up those." Gu Nansheng entered the celestial stasis to practice, and of course he used up the materials quickly.
Have you used it up? After listening to Gu Nansheng's understatement, Karin's face turned pale. The materials for ten thousand gold coins were piled up to half a person's height. Are you just using them up? Are you going to use them as waste paper, burn them for cooking, or use them as a toilet?
Have you wiped your butt with paper?
Oh my god, in just two days, more than 10,000 gold coins have evaporated, and you can still hear a sound when you throw them into the water.
Karin asked anxiously, "What about the scrolls and magic paints that I bought with one month's money?" Karin regretted it as soon as she asked this question. She had nothing to do.
Come on, if the boss gets a whim and wants to get another copy of those scrolls, she really won't have to cry anymore.
Fortunately, Gu Nansheng had no such plan. He shrugged, "It's all gone."
Karin was completely speechless, but she did not show any hesitation or dissatisfaction. She suppressed the pain in her body and said respectfully: "Yes, Mr. Gu, I will leave for Yanzhou City tomorrow morning."
Karin is a smart girl. She knows that Gu Nansheng hates some of her usual ways. Gu Nansheng gave her a warning when she met Tim at the Chengnan Market.
"This is Lina." Gu Nansheng pointed to little Lina who was looking at Karin curiously.
"Hello Miss Lina, I'm Karin, nice to meet you." Karin guessed that this little girl might have an unusual relationship with her boss, so she tried her best to show her kindness...
"Arrange a room closer to me and send a few bodyguards to protect her." Gu Nansheng arranged this to ensure Lina's safety. If anything happened to her, Old Man Ai would have to demolish his commercial city.
"It's Mr. Gu, Miss Lina, follow me."
"Yeah." Lina glanced at the sleeping Qiqi repeatedly, then at Gu Nansheng, and left with Karin obediently.
Gu Nansheng rubbed his temples. This night was really tiring.
Gu Nansheng spent the remaining time practicing, and three months passed in a blink of an eye.
Today is the day for the Enchanter Guild assessment, and it is also the decisive battle between Gu Nansheng and Master Dika.
This is not the first time for Gu Nansheng from the Enchanter Guild to come here. This is one of the gathering places for the top people in Biluo City.
The sun had just risen, and a few dewdrops appeared on the bluestone road. As soon as you stepped on it, it left a faint water stain. Gu Nansheng was wearing a magician's cloak, and the wide brim of his hat hung down, covering him
With most of his face, he gently pushed the brim of his hat with his thumb, squinting his eyes and looking at the bustling crowd. Although it was still half an hour before the Enchanter assessment started, the residents of Biluo City had already gathered at the Enchanter
The square in front of the guild was on.
The square in front of the Enchanter's Guild is the largest square in Biluo City, covering an area of tens of thousands of square meters. The ground of the square is mainly paved with bluestone slabs. It has been processed by mountain giant craftsmen and is as smooth as a stone. The bluestone slabs are also mixed with some
If you look down at the white marble from a high place, you will find that these white marbles form a huge six-pointed star, which makes people feel insignificant.
There are six heavenly disks hung on the six corners of the hexagram. The heavenly disks are important props for enchanters to synthesize equipment. The destiny heavenly disk that Azzaro once produced is one of the best.
Nine large bronze cauldrons are placed around the square. From the cauldrons, curls of green smoke float out, and the fragrance is light but not dissipating.
Soldiers wearing bright silver armor marched in neat steps, patrolling the square one by one. The crisp sound of the armor's collision and the heavy footsteps were as loud as bells and drums.
Gu Nansheng wore a big cloak to cover his face not because he didn't want others to know that he was Mr. Nan, the enchanter, but because he was afraid of being recognized by others and causing traffic jams.
In fact, Gu Nansheng did not deliberately conceal the fact that he was Mr. Nan. Mr. Nan was just the name given to Gu Nansheng by the auction house to protect the privacy of the guests.
The reason why Gu Nansheng didn't publicize that he was Mr. Nan in the whole city was because he was afraid of trouble. If a twenty-year-old enchanter said it, it would definitely cause a sensation. By then, many people from the enchanter's guild who were like flies would probably have to cross the threshold of Gu Nansheng.
.
They came just to ask Gu Nansheng what shortcuts he had, and then put forward such big reasons as "for the glory of the Guards" and "for the rise and fall of mankind", hoping that Gu Nansheng could tell his shortcuts and share them with others.
Is it really for the glory of the Guards? I'm afraid only they themselves know this.
But now, Gu Nansheng decided to disclose his identity, because this sensational effect will stimulate business in the Northwest Commercial Center, and he will use this opportunity to defeat the Jones family's Chengnan Commercial Center.
Gu Nansheng walked to the side door of the Enchanter's Guild. There were relatively few civilians here. Four fully armed soldiers stood at the door. They were all private soldiers of the Enchanter's Guild.
In fact, even if Gu Nansheng does not cover his face with a cloak, the probability of him being recognized is very low. After all, in the Jones family arena, ordinary people are too far away from him, and it is difficult for ordinary people to see Gu Nansheng clearly.
He lifted his hat and walked inside, but didn't want to be stopped. A big man looked at Gu Nansheng's attire and asked: "This little brother, are you here to take part in today's apprentice enchanter assessment?"...
"Oh, that's right." Gu Nansheng responded casually. Normally, the Enchanter's Guild can enter casually. Today, due to the assessment, there were too many people entering and leaving the Enchanter's Guild, so the security check was stricter.
"I'm sorry, little brother, do you have an enchanter's apprenticeship certificate?"
"Huh?" Gu Nansheng has never received orthodox enchanter training, "What is that?"
The big man was speechless for a while and explained: "After a transferred warrior becomes an enchanter's apprentice, he will automatically become an enchanter's apprentice. The Enchanter's Guild will issue an enchanter's apprentice certificate. Don't you have one?"
Gu Nansheng shook his head.
"Then who is your teacher?" the big man asked again.
Gu Nansheng was a little impatient, "I don't have a teacher. Does that mean I can't get in without a teacher or a certificate?"
The big man spread his hands and said, "I'm sorry, we are also acting under orders. This trainee enchanter assessment is only for the disciples of registered enchanters within the Enchanter Guild of Biluo City. If you don't have a teacher, you can't take the exam."
Gu Nansheng frowned, "Can't I go in and watch the game?"
The big man pointed to the square and said, "Please come to the square to watch the game and look at the crystal screen."
Gu Nansheng looked along the big man's finger and saw a huge crystal, a square crystal screen standing at the end of the square, and the common people under the crystal screen were waiting eagerly. What does this mean, live broadcast?
"The magic image will be transmitted to the crystal screen through light magic. If you want to watch the game, please buy a ticket to enter."
Gu Nansheng finally lost his patience and said directly to the big man: "I am Gu Nansheng, let me in."
Several soldiers guarding the gate were stunned for a moment and looked at each other. A man who seemed to be a captain stood up and said respectfully to Gu Nansheng: "It turns out to be Mr. Gu. I'm sorry, but even if you are a hero, we are not good."
I have made the decision to let you in without authorization. Only enchanter apprentices or enchanters can enter today. In this case, please wait here for a while. I will inform you and get the permission of the vice president to let you in."
The captain left in a hurry, and Gu Nansheng began to observe the huge crystal from a distance. Although there is no technology in this world, in many cases, magic can do just as well.
