Chapter 90: Chapter 90: Are You Crazy? 100T of Learning Materials?

Jiang City, Sixth District.

Lu Yuan’s figure flickered and appeared in his room.

When he saw the big bed, the desk, and the surroundings that were both familiar and strange, he felt a sense of having crossed worlds.

As an ordinary skeleton, he had lived in the Magic World for over twenty years.

Compared to the various experiences in the Magic World.

Everything in the real world felt more like a dream.

Lu Yuan took a moment to readjust his status.

He pushed open the door.

Wuxin was lazily curled up on the balcony sofa, carefully reading a paperback book.

A steaming cup of strong coffee sat on the glass table in front of her.

Afternoon sunlight streamed through the glass window, enveloping her in a serene and beautiful light.

"Master, you’re back?"

Wuxin turned her head quickly upon hearing the sound.

When she saw Lu Yuan, her beautiful eyes lit up, and she immediately stood up from the sofa excitedly.

She was wearing a professional outfit today, accentuating her graceful curves impressively.

But this elite secretary look somehow seemed a bit strange to Lu Yuan?

Wait a minute!

Short skirt, white shirt, rimless glasses?

Lu Yuan finally realized.

Isn’t this the style from certain movies?

"Wuxin, have you been secretly looking at the study materials on my computer?"

Lu Yuan scrutinized her outfit for a moment and couldn’t help but ask.

As a diligent and excellent student.

Having 100 terabytes of study material on his computer seems completely normal, right?

Wuxin’s pretty face turned slightly red, hinting at tacit approval.

After going through the transformation by the Will of the Heavens, she was no different from a normal person.

But she still retained the habits of artificial intelligence.

She would automatically learn and actively gather external data and information.

What she hadn’t expected.

Was for Lu Yuan’s computer to contain so many vivid and expressive teaching videos.

They opened her eyes and left her deeply amazed!

"Studying too much can be harmful to the body, Wuxin, you should watch less in the future."

Lu Yuan advised.

But as a student who loves to learn and help others.

He felt it was necessary to spend more time checking Wuxin’s study progress in the future.

...

Jiang City.

Zhao Family’s Patriarch Zhao Huai’an looked full of worries, as if troubled by something.

"Grandpa, what’s wrong? Have you been troubled by something these past two days?" Zhao Siqi asked with concern.

Hearing his granddaughter’s concern, Zhao Huai’an sighed heavily once again: "Just this morning, the City Lord’s Mansion has approved our application to move into the Inner City."

"Grandpa, isn’t that good news?"

Zhao Shiqi instinctively replied, but quickly her tone paused, suddenly realizing this matter was not that simple.

In past years, the Zhao Family had used countless connections and resources to no avail with the City Lord’s Mansion.

This time they agreed so readily, there must be conditions attached!

Indeed.

Zhao Huai’an’s next words confirmed her suspicion.

"The City Lord’s Mansion agreed to let us move into the Inner City, but the condition is that they want ownership of the Black Dragon Stronghold, and they want us to manage it on their behalf."

Upon hearing this news, Zhao Shiqi pursed her lips, and her face turned extremely grim.

According to the Great Yan Empire’s laws.

Those who expand territory for the Imperial Court can be exempt from large amounts of taxes.

Thus, thirty years ago.

The Zhao Family tried to unite the entire clan to establish a new city near Jiang City.

Unfortunately.

Due to obstructions and interference from various parties, the grand plan ultimately ended in failure. freewebnøvel.coɱ

And that unfinished urban area became a lawless zone, gathering many desperados.

But precisely because of this.

Being the most chaotic place within a thousand miles, the Black Dragon Stronghold instead ushered in a grotesque prosperity.

Smuggling, assassination, arms trade, brothels, contraband, slave and organ trade...

Many people say, in this chaotic place.

There’s nothing you can’t find, only things you can’t imagine!

Both the Zhao Family and several Inner City clans can earn substantial profits from this place every year.

"The City Lord’s Mansion wants to clear other forces and monopolize the Black Dragon Stronghold?"

Zhao Siqi finally understood the other party’s intentions.

The Black Dragon Stronghold was interwoven with various forces, often causing frictions and violent conflicts, severely affecting the business there.

But if someone could integrate this area.

The potential development of the Black Dragon Stronghold might surpass Jiang City in the future!

Of course.

As the official representative of the Imperial Court, the City Lord’s Mansion still had to consider its image.

They couldn’t take direct action.

So they needed the Zhao Family as a puppeteer, to help them annex and control the entire Black Dragon Stronghold.

"The City Lord’s Mansion really has a good plan, we take all the risks, they get all the benefits, where in the world is there such a lucrative business without capital?"

Zhao Shiqi sneered incessantly.

She could already imagine.

Once the Zhao Family agreed to the City Lord’s Mansion’s conditions, they would be attacked by other forces collectively.

"Grandpa, the Inner City isn’t that great anyway, it’s better if we just give up this qualification!"

Zhao Shiqi had completely seen through the true faces of the people in the Inner City.

On the surface, they seem grand and righteous, but behind the scenes, they’re ready to consume others without leaving bones.

"If it were that simple, it would be nice." Zhao Huai’an smiled bitterly and shook his head.

"The City Lord’s Mansion has already stated, the Black Dragon Stronghold is under Jiang City’s jurisdiction, so it also has tax obligations."

"And as the nominal owner of the Black Dragon Stronghold, our Zhao Family must collect and pay all the back taxes within half a month!"

Upon hearing these words.

Zhao Shiqi’s eyes flared up, almost fainting from anger on the spot.

The City Lord’s Mansion must be joking?

Asking the Zhao Family to collect taxes from a group of desperados?

It’s known that these people, gathered from all around, are death-row inmates and criminals.

Trying to make them pay taxes is even harder than killing them!

"The City Lord’s Mansion is overstepping, trying to drive us to a dead end?"

Zhao Shiqi gritted her teeth in anger, losing all goddess demeanor.

The City Lord’s Mansion’s intention was clear.

Either obediently become their cannon fodder and puppeteer, or go bankrupt for peace.

But either choice was a dead end for the Zhao Family!

"There are people with knives, we are the fish; the life and death of my Zhao Family, hundreds of people, are just words for them."

Zhao Huai’an sighed, his entire being seemed to age decades in an instant.

In the eyes of outsiders.

He, the Patriarch of the Zhao Family, seemed infinitely glorious.

But in the eyes of the City Lord’s Mansion, their Zhao Family was nothing more than a tool to be discarded at any time.

"Is there really no way out?"

Zhao Shiqi was indignant.

She had A-level Talent, once renowned as a genius beauty in Jiang City.

Once she grew, she might change the Zhao Family’s fate.

But reality was so cruel, not giving her any time or opportunity to grow!

"Don’t worry, Shiqi, grandpa will handle this."

Zhao Huai’an looked pained at his granddaughter, a flash of guilt in his aged eyes.

If it weren’t for the Zhao Family’s unworthy descendants, she wouldn’t have to bear so much at her young age.

But Zhao Shiqi knew in her heart, these were just comforting words from her grandpa.

Jiang City’s Territory Core was tightly controlled by the City Lord’s Mansion.

Therefore.

Neither the Inner City families nor the Outer City forces dared to challenge the will of the City Lord’s Mansion.

Just as Zhao Shiqi was extremely anxious, Lu Yuan’s image suddenly flashed in her mind.

As the most promising genius star of this generation in Jiang City, perhaps he had a way?

But quickly.

Zhao Shiqi dismissed this thought.

Although Lu Yuan had good talent, he had yet to spread his wings; he was just a freshly graduated poor student.

Even Zhao Huai’an, a Tier Three Morning Star Peak Strong Person, was helpless in this matter.

Let alone Lu Yuan?

However, when she recalled Lu Yuan’s nonchalant attitude upon hearing his reassignment to the Black Dragon Stronghold, she hesitated again.

A woman’s intuition told her.

This boy who had risen from the slums was not simple, seemingly harboring some unknown secret.

Thinking of this.

Zhao Shiqi decided to make a last-ditch effort.

Holding onto one final strand of hope, she went to the Sixth District to seek Lu Yuan’s help!
