My Chaotic City

Chapter 037 I Will Never Lose Out

In Li Hanqiang's mind, fishing at Bibo Pond must continue, and 10 little demons must be prepared. The Demon Mountain Farm, Demon Mountain Herb Garden, Demon Mountain Mine, and Demon Mountain Lumberyard must also be filled with little demons, and at least 10 little demons should be kept at the Demon Mountain Workshop.

So, to form a group of a hundred demons, we would need to wait until the number of demons in the Demon Mountain Cave reaches a maximum of 140, which would require cultivating another 7 acres of fertile land in the Demon Mountain Farm.

However, just as the system described, Xiao Yao's work efficiency was unpredictable, and it was unknown how long it would take to cultivate the 7 acres of fertile land.

Meanwhile, the shacks at the foot of the mountain began to be built.

The five little demons who were building the hut worked very hard in front of Li Hanqiang. They magically produced wooden sticks and quickly built a simple frame for the hut.

Li Hanqiang stared at it for a while and thought to himself that this shack really was a shack. Judging by its appearance, it was at most two meters high and could occupy three square meters of space, which would be considered good. It was not much bigger than a public telephone booth.

"This thing looks a bit like an upright coffin, it's so ugly, there probably isn't even enough space for someone to lie down, it's designed according to Xiao Yao's height..."

As Li Hanqiang was complaining, a system notification suddenly appeared: "An anonymous player wishes to teleport into your Chaos City. Do you wish to allow this?"

"Not allowed!"

Li Hanqiang guessed that it was probably the dog-headed hat thief from yesterday who wanted to teleport over, since he was the only one who had ever chosen to teleport anonymously before.

Although the dog-hat thief could generate profits for Li Hanqiang by selling potions, Li Hanqiang was a man who valued his reputation and needed to maintain his dignity. Besides, the dog-hat thief didn't have any good intentions, so he should be left out for a while.

Li Hanqiang's "no" really worried the master thief.

How could he not be anxious? The price of gold coins was dropping every moment. He checked the market price early this morning and found that the exchange rate between game gold coins and real currency had dropped to 1 to 150.

Earning money late means losing money; even the most cunning thief feels like he's being torn apart.

He had actually logged on quite early, and the thirty middle-aged women had also logged on. The master thief led these women through a round of daily tasks, specifically choosing those with non-bound gold coin rewards, and also helped them sell gold coins.

The women each received nearly two hundred yuan, and they were overjoyed, praising the master thief to the skies.

But the master thief had no interest in such a small sum of money. He led the group of middle-aged women back to the Chaos Temple, ready to continue his drug-selling business from yesterday.

However, Li Hanqiang would not allow him to teleport into Chaos City!

"Has this simpleton city lord finally realized what's going on? Or is he out of gold coins? Can't afford the subsidies anymore?" The master thief was so anxious that he paced back and forth, secretly regretting that he had been too high-profile yesterday. Why didn't he know how to act?

He kept activating the teleportation tickets.

Li Hanqiang received teleportation requests one after another, which he rejected all of them. It wasn't until more than half an hour later, when the shack was completed, that Li Hanqiang crawled inside to test it out before finally arriving at the war corridor and accepting the teleportation request.

"Shamelessness is the greatest virtue in the world, but your skin is even thicker than mine. While you may not be as shameless as I am, you're still a bit less shameless!" Li Hanqiang rolled his eyes at the Divine Thief and said, "You're from the Emperor's Guild, aren't you?"

The master thief nodded subconsciously, then quickly shook his head, saying, "No, no, absolutely not! Brother Qiang, you have to believe me."

"I don't believe you!" Li Hanqiang said with an expression that seemed to know everything. "Time is precious, so stop arguing and go buy the medicine yourself. I'll even give you a subsidy, the same as yesterday."

"Huh?" The master thief felt a little confused about Li Hanqiang. He thought to himself, "Is this guy really stupid? He knows I'm a member of the Emperor Guild, yet he still lets me earn gold coins?"

Could it be that he has some kind of conspiracy?

"Go ahead and buy with confidence! I, the city lord, have plenty of gold coins. You can buy a hundred million bottles!" Li Hanqiang said with the air of a tycoon. "Go buy them now! Sell them quickly, and come back to buy more. Payment in gold coins only, we'll never close!"

"This..." The master thief hesitated, saying, "Brother Qiang, what if I'm from the Emperor's Guild? Wouldn't you be at a disadvantage?"

"With your IQ, you think you can make me lose money!" Li Hanqiang smiled slightly. "You can make a killing, but I'll never lose!"

He couldn't help but boast, saying, "In my eyes, the Emperor Guild is just a third-rate little guild. Look at that Zhen Dejun, a complete idiot with the mentality of a primary school student. He dared to provoke me, and I crushed him without any power to resist! As for that Zhen Deqiang, he sent a server-wide announcement to show off. He's just a reckless fool. I can wipe out more than a dozen small guilds like Emperor Guild with a flick of my wrist! Who am I? Even the guild leader of the Tianhe Guild has to bring a whole bunch of his men when he sees me."

Upon hearing this, the master thief was startled, thinking to himself, "Is this Li Hanqiang some kind of big shot?"

He was somewhat fooled by Li Hanqiang. Looking at this Chaos City, the initial divine tower, the Flame Tower, the mysterious shop, the strange patterns on the war corridor, and the strange tower that could release sword energy, could an ordinary Chaos City have these?

The master thief was fine until he started thinking about it, and the more he thought about it, the more he realized that Li Hanqiang was no ordinary person.

"This Li Hanqiang is probably a rich and powerful man, someone ordinary people can't afford to mess with." The master thief pondered silently, feeling a great deal of pressure.

Of course, only a fool wouldn't make money when there's opportunity. The master thief continued his drug-selling business, quickly returning to the Chaos Temple with the potions and distributing them to the group of elderly women.

The older women now find the master thief particularly pleasing to the eye, calling him "Captain" at every turn.

In their eyes, this young man was incredibly capable. In the morning, he led them through the streets and alleys, and somehow each of them earned nearly two hundred yuan, which was more than their wages for two days. It was amazing.

Therefore, they were naturally very enthusiastic about the task assigned by the master thief, and set off immediately after receiving the potion.

The master thief, Shenji, waited for them in the Chaos Temple, still pondering Li Hanqiang's identity. After a moment, a voice suddenly rang in his ears: "Master thief, how's your double agent operation going?"

The person speaking was Zhen Deqiang, with Zhen Dejun following behind him.

The master thief quickly stood up, adopting the air of a cunning strategist, and smiled, "Don't worry, guild master, I've already gained Li Hanqiang's initial trust and am currently swindling his gold coins... But guild master, this Li Hanqiang seems a bit unusual. He has a lot of gold coins and many subordinates; he's probably a ruthless character!"

"I don't care about being ruthless or not, who have I ever been afraid of in the game? You better deal with him properly and prevent his Chaos City from developing!" Zhen Deqiang glared at the Divine Thief, then looked around and asked, "Where are the men I found for you?"
