The world has turned into Hell's Game, why should I stay human? Chapter 986 639: Niu Ma's Prank (Part 2)

"Seeing is believing, hearing is not."

Yuan Baoer chuckled lightly.

"Ahem, hold off on driving for a mont, let's talk business. I really want to borrow a billion from you, President Yuan."

In terms of Tai Chi, he was no match for this kind of divorced non-human lady.

"Why do you need to borrow so much money?"

Yuan Baoer's tone beca serious.

A billion is no small amount, even for those truly elite families in the tropolis, and she certainly couldn't co up with that much cash.

"Here's the thing, I have a purchasing quota of a billion at the Du Kang Wine Workshop, but I don't have enough money to make the purchase. And if I don't use up the quota all at once, the remaining amount will be cleared."

Liu Zheng explained.

"Du Kang Wine Workshop?"

Yuan Baoer fell into thought.

She had heard of Du Kang Wine Workshop's reputation but wasn't exactly aware of this billion-dollar purchasing quota.

After all, custors at the 'Ga Ga Shuang' bathhouse are well-off but not super-rich, so they don't need to purchase such high-end liquor.

"If you're not familiar, President Yuan, you can ask around. As long as you don't refuse, you'll forever have the first right to borrow."

Even though he was the one borrowing money, Liu Zheng's tone was incredibly bold.

"No need to inquire, I'll lend you the money."

Yuan Baoer was even more bold than he was.

"President Yuan, it's a billion after all. Aren't you going to think it over?"

"There's nothing to consider. If it weren't for you, Mr. Liu, I'd be long dead, and the 'Ga Ga Shuang' I just reopened would be taken by that bastard. Not to ntion borrowing a billion, if you truly have an urgent matter, even giving you a billion is out of the question."

Yuan Baoer said earnestly.

"President Yuan, you're so overbearing."

Liu Zheng raised a large tentacle across the phone.

"But I can't pull out a billion in cash right now; it'll take a few days to gather the funds."

"No worries, I actually asked so acquaintances at the City Hall. How about this, President Yuan, you lend 50 million, and I'll borrow the other 50 million from City Hall."

He thought for a mont before saying.

Yuan Baoer would indeed find it challenging to handle a billion on her own, and it would be too conspicuous; with City Hall involved, things would be more secure.

"You got City Hall involved in this?"

Yuan Baoer exclaid.

"So rest assured, President Yuan. I guarantee you won't lose out. If you can't handle it alone, you can find so people you're close to and pool the funds; they'll not only rush to give you the money but also owe you a favor."

Liu Zheng said confidently.

The liquor swapped for the Evil God's nightmare would be a loss; he might as well find a way to blow up Du Kang Wine Workshop.

"Alright, I'll start gathering the funds right away."

Yuan Baoer decisively hung up the phone.

"Hmm, I should ask around about 4399."

Liu Zheng called 4399.

"What's up?"

4399 asked.

"I've set things up at Silk Cave; you can inform the Lamp God that he can take the Magic Carpet for maintenance now."

He said.

"Alright. Anything else?"

"Also, regarding the purchasing quota at Du Kang Wine Workshop we talked about last ti, have you considered it?"

Liu Zheng asked.

"Is it urgent?"

"Not particularly for , but I have a friend who's already reserved a 50 million quota. If you don't need it, she'll just take the remaining 50 million."

He replied.

"We'll take the remaining 50 million, but we'll pay after receiving the goods."

4399 said.

"How much are you and Brother 8848 taking?"

Liu Zheng asked.

"I'll take 3 million, and he'll take 2 million."

"Alright, I'll advance the 5 million."

He nodded.

"What about the rest of the money?"

"Big Brother 4399, I earn fast, but money doesn't fall from the sky. Using my quota to let them profit, and they still want to foot the bill, do they take for a fool?"

"I willingly cover for you and Brother 8848; no matter how much you earn, I'll only be happy for you. But for others, not a single penny will I advance."

"If they think I'm being disrespectful, then so be it. I'm not afraid to go separate ways. I, Liu Zheng, have made a na for myself in such a short ti, forging connections with those high-profile figures, never by stooping to compromise."

Liu Zheng declared resolutely.

Had he been causing too few ruckuses in the city lately, making this group think he was leading a quiet life?

Whether they were testing him or truly wanted to leash him as a dog, he'd kick the leash right back in their faces.

"Understood. Both 8848 and I will cover our share; we'll talk to them about theirs. Just keep this between us, even from 8848. There's no wall in the world that can't leak secrets."

4399 cautioned.

"Heh, don't worry. I talk one way to people and another to ghosts."

Liu Zheng reverted to his cheeky tone.

"Can you really speak ghost language?"

4399 asked in surprise.

People have their language, and ghosts, of course, have theirs.

It's just that ghosts can speak human language, but humans can't speak ghost language.

"Uh, no, I was just using a taphor."

He said sowhat awkwardly.

That was a miscalculation; he forgot there really were ghosts in the tropolis.

After hanging up, Liu Zheng stood there, pondering his next move.

A few of his reliable subordinates were still recovering, so the lottery store and cetery were off-limits for now.

The theater awaited news from Fei Shibu, and he needed news from Yuan Baoer and 4399 about Du Kang Wine Workshop. Capturing the runaway consciousness in the sewer wasn't urgent, and the matter with Guo Koutangzi awaited news from Silver Wolf...

Thinking it over, he found there wasn't anything pressing to do at the mont.

"Hmm, I'll head to Jidao Public Bath for a soak and then have a big al."

Liu Zheng felt his flat stomach and decided to relax for a bit.

Though his nerves had been toughened like tungsten alloy by the tropolis, he still felt fatigue occasionally since he wasn't made of absolute solid material.

"What are you standing there like a street tree for?"

A voice suddenly sounded from behind him.

Liu Zheng whipped around, nearly bumping into Niu Ma's big face.

"Yuck!"

He took two steps back in disdain.

"Boss, maybe you could make so noise when you walk. Sneaky like that, if people know you're delivering food, fine; if not, they'd think you're stealing it."

Liu Zheng teased.

"It's your own ears that are faulty, how's that my problem? Besides, those ordering would be more than happy if their food got stolen halfway."

Niu Ma snorted.

"..."

What it said made so much sense that Liu Zheng was left speechless.

"Where were you delivering to?"

"Went to the Old City District. By the way, do you know those ladies from Pink Kingdom?"

Niu Ma asked.

"Yeah, I know them. Why?"

"No wonder they let deliver when they heard you're my follower; otherwise, it would have taken so effort to deal with that woman with the katana."

Niu Ma said.

"What was the custor's na?"

"Was it Marina or lina maybe? Can't rember clearly."

Niu Ma thought for a mont and said.

Not Jennifer, this made Liu Zheng breathe a sigh of relief.

"So how did it go after she got her delivery?"

"How should I know? But I guess if she didn't die, she probably turned into a walking corpse."

Niu Ma said.

"Sigh."

He sighed.

Even though the Queen couldn't stop Niu Ma if she didn't give him face, he still felt a bit disappointed.

"If you start delivering food to your own son one day, you'd better put it right into his hands and watch until the ti limit's up."

Niu Ma remarked coldly.

"Boss, don't you feel that way?"

Liu Zheng asked.

"Nope. Otherwise, why would I have switched teams?"

Niu Ma replied with conviction.

"If I were really cold and heartless, I'd have kicked you to death at the start, and you wouldn't be here rolling your eyes at ? Enough chit-chat, I'm off to sleep. Catch you later."

Niu Ma gave Liu Zheng a kick, then turned back and walked into the delivery corridor.

"Oh, by the way, I already took care of that guy. It's all clean, so tell the sis-in-law to rest easy."

Niu Ma responded without turning back, continuing on.

"Gee, I was going to ask if you wanted to join for a bath and a good al. Forget it, go sleep on your pile of junk."

Liu Zheng smacked his lips and drove towards Jidao Public Bath.
