Chapter 340: The Popular Prison (5)
“I hid them in a safe place,” Leng Ruoxue said mysteriously.
“That’s good.” Lan Ming was relieved.
“President Lan, let’s talk about our remuneration now!” Leng Ruoxue suggested.
“Uh, I won’t treat you badly. Why are you in such a hurry?” Lan Ming said with a face full of black lines.
“Alas! You’re a full man who doesn’t know the hunger of a hungry man! How can a rich person like you understand the pain of us poor people!” Leng Ruoxue sighed with emotion from being poor.
“Isn’t that too exaggerated?!” Lan Ming really didn’t know what to say.
“I’m not exaggerating. We’re really running out of money,” Leng Ruoxue said seriously.
“You can calculate it yourself. We spent five hundred purple coins on spiritual power conversion in your association. We’ve spent almost two thousand purple coins from lodging, meals, and the city entrance fees over the past few days. That’s two thousand purple coins! It should be enough for ordinary people to live for several years, right?” Leng Ruoxue said while counting seriously with her fingers.
They had only been on the Boundless Heaven Continent for a week, but Leng Ruoxue could feel the pinch from the expensive cost of living here. When she was on the Ling Feng Continent, she had never been short of money. But after she arrived here, she found that the amethyst coins she brought from the Ling Feng Continent were flowing like water, and there were so few of them now…
Alas! Money! She needed to earn money!
“Alright, forget it. Ten million purple coins per person. That should be enough, right?” Lan Ming interrupted Leng Ruoxue.
“No,” Leng Ruoxue refused directly.
“My little ancestor, ten million isn’t a small sum. What else do you want?” Lan Ming said weakly. Why is this girl so difficult to deal with?
“In the future, you are not allowed to charge my people for going to your guild to convert spiritual power. Moreover, you have to cover food and lodging from now until the competition ends.” Leng Ruoxue raised her conditions.
“That’s not a problem. But you still have other people?” Lan Ming couldn’t help asking.
“Yes, but they can’t convert their spiritual power yet, so don’t have any ideas about them,” Leng Ruoxue said understandingly.
“Oh, I’ll arrange a place for you to stay after you leave the prison,” Lan Ming said with some disappointment.
“Then it’s settled. President Lan, you can go back now.” Leng Ruoxue began to chase him away after the discussion was over.
“You’re so pragmatic! Um… Then I’m leaving. Be careful. The Zhu family can do anything,” Lan Ming reminded before leaving.
“Okay, got it.” Leng Ruoxue nodded.
“Xue’er, what should we do now?” Freak asked curiously after Lan Ming left.
“Wait and see. I wonder if anyone else will come?” Leng Ruoxue guessed.
“Probably not. We don’t know many people here,” Freak said with certainty.
“In that case, let’s go to the city lord’s mansion for a night tour!” Leng Ruoxue suggested, her eyes shining with a mischievous light.
“Okay, let’s go now!” Freak said impatiently. Hehe, causing trouble is the most enjoyable thing.
“Let’s go.” Leng Ruoxue nodded. They left the cell quietly under the cover of night.
“Freak, I just remembered something,” Leng Ruoxue suddenly said on the street after leaving the prison.
“What’s the matter?” Freak asked in puzzlement.
“We don’t know the location of the city lord’s mansion.” Leng Ruoxue said gloomily. Pig Furong didn’t imprison them in the city lord’s mansion but locked them in a prison in Windless City because she was afraid of being blamed by her father.
“Did you forget that we have a map? Hehe!” Freak reminded.
“Oh, I forgot about the map.” Thanks to Freak’s reminder, Leng Ruoxue remembered the map and took it out of the bracelet.
“Xue’er, this is the city lord’s mansion, right?” Freak pointed at a very conspicuous red dot on the map.
“Yes, it doesn’t seem too far away. Freak, let’s go!” Leng Ruoxue said.
“Okay.”
The two of them followed the directions on the map and quickly found the city lord’s mansion. There were two guards guarding the front door of the city lord’s mansion, so they turned to the back door. The back door was very small, and only one person could pass at a time. Moreover, not only was the back door not guarded, but it wasn’t even locked, showing how arrogant this city lord was.
“Xue’er, this city lord’s mansion is quite luxurious! It’s not inferior to an imperial palace!” Freak sighed while standing outside the tall courtyard walls of the city lord’s mansion.
“Yes, and this is only the city lord’s mansion of a small city. Freak, looks like this city lord is very rich!” Leng Ruoxue’s beautiful eyes glittered with interest.
“Xue’er, we will be the rich ones if we rob him,” Freak said evilly.
“Yes, that’s what I was thinking too. The city lord’s mansion of such a small city is actually living in such luxury. I really don’t know how much of the people’s hard-earned money he has embezzled. Freak, let’s rob the rich to help the poor today!” Leng Ruoxue said righteously. Uh! Of course, the poor referred to them.
“Yes, we must rob the rich to support the poor that is us.” Freak nodded heavily in agreement.
“Freak, let’s go in!” Leng Ruoxue said.
“Okay,” Freak answered, and they sneaked into the city lord’s mansion through the back door.
After entering the city lord’s mansion, Leng Ruoxue found a hidden and uninhabited corner and moved her grandfather and the others, who were already waiting impatiently, out of the bracelet. Her cute beasts also came out together. Of course, her beasts were all transformed. Otherwise, the city lord’s mansion likely wouldn’t be able to hold them.
“Feng Zhan, Charm, you have to take these beasts with you and be careful!” Leng Ruoxue reminded. Although there were not many powerful experts in the city lord’s mansion, it was still better to be careful.
