Chapter 1171 Boy, I can only help you here (seeking a monthly ticket)
"Want a ticket, ah, bah, bah, bah, bah, do you want a ticket?" A deliberately lowered voice came from behind Krum.
That tone has only ever appeared in legendary novels, when spies and secret agents are talking to each other. It is low and full of strange temptation.
Krum was stunned for a moment, then turned around and was shocked to see a human child standing in front of him.
He was white and fat, with pink cheeks and white teeth. He looked at himself with a smile, and his big, bright, dark eyes kept moving around.
Behind him was a pure white, chubby little elephant with a fat head and big ears, looking up and down at Krum himself with a pair of extra-large eyes.
Although the eyes of that person and image were clear and simple, they clearly had evil intentions.
Krum was stunned for a moment, and then, like a conditioned reflex, he took a half step back and tightly covered his wallet with both hands.
The people looked at each other immediately, and then their faces showed the sweetest and most innocent smiles like those of insurance salesmen.
Seeing their smiles, Krum felt even more worried. He tightened his grip on his wallet. Then he said in a trembling voice: "You...what do you want to do?"
At the same time, he also felt a little strange in his heart. He was an adult, and he was also a successful businessman who had experienced countless turmoils in the business world. Why did he feel guilty in front of such a little kid?
It's like... it's like a mouse that has met a cat. Although the cat is young and ignorant, its murderous aura and power are inherent in it, making it difficult for people to face it.
Thinking of this, he couldn't help but look at the child carefully, and suddenly realized that the little kid in front of him looked familiar.
Krum suddenly felt blessed, an idea flashed in his mind, and he blurted out in panic: "Leo... Your Highness, Your Highness..."
Then he hurriedly took off his hat and bowed to salute.
No matter from which aspect, Leo's status is respected, even with the pride of the elves. When meeting Lorraine, a person of Leo's status must be greeted respectfully. This is the strict hierarchy of feudal aristocratic society.
Especially after the arrogant elves saw the power of human battleships and war fortresses, they found that they really couldn't defeat them once these uncles started acting rogue.
Therefore, although everyone still looks down on the human race from the bottom of their hearts, the level of politeness towards humans has suddenly improved a lot.
"Hush, shush..." Leo was anxious for a while, and he quickly raised his fat fingers and made a silent gesture on his lips.
He glanced left and right, then lowered his voice and said: "Low-key, low-key, you must be low-key. In our scalper business, you must be invisible to everyone, and try not to reveal your identity as much as possible."
Krum looked at Leo in confusion, then looked back at the guards behind him. Seeing that they didn't seem to have any intention of stopping him, he couldn't help but wonder: "Your Highness, you...are you..."
"Young man, I see that you have wonderful bones and extraordinary talents. You will become a great person in the future, so... do you want to get a ticket?" Leo said with a smile.
Krum was confused. He was surprised by what the old man sang. He looked down at his slightly bulging belly and couldn't imagine that he had a strange skeleton.
Moreover, this will become a great thing in the future, what is the inevitable connection between it and the ticket?
Wait, door...ticket?~!!!
He looked at Leo in surprise for a moment.
Leo smiled slyly. He held his hands in front of his chest and shook his belly. He kept laughing evilly. Then he said slowly: "Do you really want to get on the battleship?"
The voice was full of temptation. At that moment, Krum had a strange hallucination, as if he saw the devil's unique little arrow-shaped tail wagging behind the little fat man.
He couldn't help but feel a shiver in his heart. He hurriedly put his head out and took a quick look behind Leo. Only then did he realize that the tail belonged to the little elephant next to him. He was so happy that he had the illusion.
He breathed a sigh of relief, then looked at Leo's bright, expectant eyes, shook his head repeatedly, waved his hands in denial, and said, "I don't want to at all."
Just kidding, although this little fat guy is fair and tender, you can tell at a glance that he is definitely not a good person.
"Hey" Leo had a sarcastic expression on his face, and then said loudly: "I saw it just now, that pretty boy with that pretty girl on his arm, and you followed him all the way.
Just now, just now, he was telling jokes to that woman and mocking you~!"
Krum suddenly felt like a sword piercing his heart. How could a normal man endure the insults of others, let alone the insults coming from his love rival?
He was furious for a moment, and the fire was rising, but then he thought of something, and then he was discouraged. He sighed feebly and said dejectedly: "So what? Who can let me have an uncle who is a great elder?
Get the tickets."
Leo raised his hand and patted Krum's shoulder comfortingly, saying, "Does this make you discouraged?
Originally, when I saw you following me, I thought you had some courage, but I didn't expect you to be a coward. No wonder that girl doesn't like you."
Krum opened his mouth, wanting to say something, but in the end he just snorted angrily as an answer.
If he were an ignorant and passionate young man, he would naturally be fearless, but after all, he has experienced countless turmoils. Those experiences brought him a certain amount of money, but they also made him understand more clearly how terrifying the power of power is.
.
This is a society full of strict feudal hierarchies, and there is no room for overstepping the boundaries~!
Jose's uncle is a great elder who has joined the Presbyterian Church and holds great power~!
Facing the opponent's overwhelming power, just by stretching out a little finger, he can be crushed to death like an ant by a small businessman.
Therefore, even if you are extremely unwilling, even if you are crying and swallowing blood, you still have to be wise and take the initiative to give in and leave silently.
Leo looked at the frustrated look on his face. He couldn't help but get angry, and he said with all his heart, "I said, as a businessman, uh... By the way, you are a businessman, right?"
Krum nodded and said: "Yes, Your Highness, I have achieved some success in Aceras."
"Yes." Leo nodded heavily and said: "As a businessman and a capitalist, are you afraid of the privileges of the nobility? Are you shrinking? You are worthy of your capital and your gold.
?”
Krum shook his head blankly and said: "No..."
Leo slapped his palms and said excitedly: "That's right. Let me tell you, anything that power can do, we capitalists can also do it, and do it better than them.
They rely on the legacy of countless generations of ancestors to obtain their privileges, but it doesn’t matter, we can do it now too.”
Like a magic trick, Leo reached back with his little hand and took out an invitation for the open day at lightning speed, saying: "Originally, it cost one thousand gold coins, but now our company has a special price. So...
As long as 998, as long as 998 gold coins, you can get the same treatment as the aristocratic privileges. This is the power of money, this is the power of capital.
The opportunity is right in front of you, it's up to you whether you can seize it.
If you pass by, don't miss it.
Friend, why are you still hesitating?"
A flash of lightning suddenly flashed through Krum's heart.
He looked at Leo blankly and murmured: "Yeah, why didn't I expect that the power of capital... there is nothing that money can't buy~!"
Klum suddenly slapped his thigh and said decisively: "I want it~!"
As he spoke, he took out his wallet, without looking at how much money was in it. He turned the wallet over and dumped it all into Leo's hand. Then he grabbed the invitation card from Leo's hand. He turned around and took a big step,
He rushed towards the guard guarding the door aggressively. He didn't even hear Leo calling him from behind.
Those Imperial Guards still remembered this guy, impatiently stretched out their hands to stop him, and said angrily: "Go away, go away, if you make trouble again, I will take you to jail."
Krum stood in front of the Guards with a full stomach, raised the invitation card in his hand and almost pressed it on the Guards' face, and said confidently: "I also have this thing, man. Watch it, see it clearly, others can rely on it."
It's a gift from the elders to hold it for your parents.
And mine was earned by myself.”
The leading guard unconsciously took a step back, wondering: What is the origin of this guy, so stubborn? Could it be that he took the wrong medicine?
But after carefully checking the invitation in his hand, it was not fake at all.
The Praetorian Guards immediately waved their hands and let Krum onto the deck.
Not far away, Leo looked at Klum's back and cursed: "You didn't give me enough money, bastard, come back, you didn't give me enough money. Your grandma is a bastard, a bastard, a bastard... come back
~!"
But at this time, Klum had already squeezed onto the boat. Leo looked down at the wallet, and he was about to shed tears of distress - this business was a loss.
But then, he endured the heartache, waved his hand vigorously, and said: "Mom, don't let me touch you next time. Forget it, it's the first business anyway, just treat it as teaching."
With that said, he solemnly stuffed all the gold and silver coins into Xiaobai's pocket.
Chairman Leo turned his head and looked at a row of more than a dozen respectful elves behind Xiaobai. He placed his hands on his hips domineeringly and lectured them: "Did you see that? This is how business should be done. Understand.
Let's start the work. When everything is sold out, each of you can get a commission of 5%.
Come on, kids."
These elves agreed in unison and quickly dispersed into the crowd at the pier. Among the greedy elves on the shore, the same voice soon sounded, "Do you want a bid? Bah bah bah, do you want a ticket?"
As long as you spend ninety-nine and eight gold coins, you can enjoy the treatment that only nobles can have. This event is only for one day. If you miss it, you will regret it for life. What are you waiting for?"
After some eloquent encouragement, many wealthy people were immediately as excited as Krum and obediently paid for the tickets.
As an important trading port, Aceles has a lot of wealthy people.
Although Second Master Lei’s asking price of ninety-nine and eight gold coins is considered a huge sum of money no matter where he puts it, which is a bit too sinister, there are indeed many rich people in the Elf Kingdom.
Many people took it out without blinking.
Although everyone wants to visit this battleship, if you pay a small amount of money, you can get the privileges that only kings and nobles can have. This is what those rich but powerless people want to have most.
Krum walked up the gangway to the deck of the battleship happily. Sailors wearing white uniforms and black leather shoes were on the ship explaining every detail of the battleship to the visitors.
Whether it was the 205-foot-long hull, the 210-foot-tall mast, or the five-story-high deck, they all aroused exclamations from the elven visitors.
But what they were most concerned about was the invincible cannon on the ship. While looking for Anaïs, Krum followed the flow of people down the deck and came to the lower fort.
The gun windows on both sides were all wide open. The cabin was brightly lit, and the artillery was lined up in a neat line in front of the window, with the muzzles pointing out the window.
The black and shiny artillery is like a tiger that has been crouching on the ground, and the black muzzle is like a tiger's mouth. It is ready to tear apart its enemies at any time.
The spectacular sight of the artillery salvo that day was still clearly engraved in Krum's heart. Seeing these destructive weapons with his own eyes, Krum became excited. He held his breath and carefully touched the cannon.
The barrel of the gun is like touching a fragile object.
The feeling of cold metal came from the tentacles. Krum sighed and thought to himself: I can't believe that the flames that can destroy the rocks came from here.
At this time, Krum heard a gentle voice: "I think it's very simple, how can it be worth one hundred thousand gold coins."
It was Anaïs who was as beautiful as a white rose. That guy Jose was hanging around her like a dog-skin plaster.
Opposite Anaïs was a young human officer who was dazzled by Anaïs's beauty. He explained without hesitation: "In the words of our chairman, it only takes one step to create it."
One hundred gold coins, but knowing how to make him is worth ninety-nine thousand nine hundred gold coins.
Don't underestimate it, it's just a metal tube, but it is a masterpiece of alchemy. The Parthians once imitated our cannon, but after six shots, it exploded."
Krum saw the opportunity coming and hurriedly walked out. He praised loudly: "You are so right. Knowledge and information are priceless."
Anaïs and José were both surprised.
They all turned their heads, and when they saw Krum, they couldn't help but be even more surprised. Especially Jose, whose eyes were blank and his mouth was open so much that he could almost swallow an egg.
Seeing that Anaïs could show such an expression, Krum felt that the ninety-eight gold coins were worth it. He nodded elegantly to Anaïs and said: "I'm sorry I'm late. I'm looking for an invitation."
It took me a while, Ana."
Jose frowned and said angrily: "How could you..."
Krum smiled proudly and said with a victorious expression: "I bought it at the door. I don't have a good family like others. I have a good father and a good mother. I don't have to do anything to get what I want."
thing.
However, fortunately, I have the ability and can earn what I want with my skills.
This is the power of capital~!
A person who has no ability will have nothing left after his parents die. But my ability, except for the God of Death, cannot be taken away by anyone."
Anaïs was stunned for a moment, then opened her folding fan and covered her mouth with a smile, and nodded appreciatively.
Lorraine walked through the crowd accompanied by the captain, and the elves around him consciously moved out of the way.
Lorraine nodded to them, came to the stairs, then turned around and told the captain: "Leave the necessary personnel to guard you, and the others can go out for a walk during the holidays. Oh, by the way, give them a pair of Times, no, three times the bonus, things here in the elves are very expensive."
The captain said respectfully: "On behalf of all the crew, I would like to thank you, sir."
Lorraine waved his hand and said with a smile: "Tell those bastards that if anyone can abduct a girl in the elves, I will give him a promotion."
The captain laughed heartily and said loudly: "Yes, sir."
"But" Lorraine shook her finger and said, "If anyone gets too drunk and causes trouble for me among the elves and is embarrassed, I will throw him on a desert island and become a savage for the rest of his life."
The captain raised his hand in salute and said, "I will watch them."
Leo and Xiaobai squeezed through the crowd and hurried in, saying hurriedly: "Boss, it's time to go. Those bastards who can't make it in time for lunch should get mad again."
The elves around them laughed lowly. They had all heard about the scandal in Lord Luo's family, and naturally knew who was the boss in Lord Luo's family.
Lorraine curled her lips helplessly and thought to herself: Why does this unlucky kid always tell the truth everywhere?
Leo suddenly saw Krum, and his expression immediately changed. But then he saw the woman next to him, and he immediately thought of something.
He forced out a smile and said hello to him.
Krum was so frightened that he quickly saluted in fear.
Leo waved his hand indifferently and said, "Boy, I can only help you up to this point."
Xiaobai glanced at Krum sideways, grinned disdainfully, and thought to himself unhappily: He's such a poor guy, but he still tries to pick up girls.
Uncle Xiaobai was very angry about this first business deal for which he did not pay enough money.
If Boss Lei hadn't stopped him, he would have rushed up, knocked the bastard to the ground, and then given him a lap dance.
Damn it, no one who dares to owe Uncle Xiaobai money has been born yet~!
But since Boss Lei didn't pursue it, it couldn't express anything. It just snorted at him bitterly, then swung its fat butt and climbed up the stairs again.
At this time, everyone discovered that Klum actually knew Mr. Lei, and the eyes they looked at him were even more different...

Lorraine and Leo stepped off the battleship and asked, "What did you do just now?"
Leo shrugged helplessly and said: "It's okay. I saw that guy robbing women, so I helped him. It was just a training for the salesmen. These idiots in the Elf Kingdom don't even sell scalpers. meeting.
The six-year-old girls in Naian are better than them."
Lorraine rubbed her nose and said with a wry smile: "Don't let your sister know, otherwise she will confiscate the full amount."
"Don't worry." Leo waved his hand calmly and said, "She is busy shopping and doesn't have that much thought.
Besides, it was her fault in the first place. She said she could only give it away and not sell it, which would damage her international image. No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, it wasn’t bought with money. Those elves won’t cherish it. I’m educating them.
." Lorraine nodded and said: "Anyway, we have increased the price, choked them, and engaged in hunger marketing, all for the good of the elves."
"That's right, we have to let them understand that this is a cruel world." Leo said confidently: "Since someone has to be the bad guy, let me be the bad guy."
