Zhang Kai rushed in and stood before Zhao Qingya.
“What should we do? How should we deal with it?”
Zhao Qingya remained relatively calm. “The troublemaker you mentioned, what is he here for?”
“It’s like this,” Zhang Kai began, thinking for a moment before replying, “When that guy came over, he insisted that our people stole the dragon spoils that belonged to them. He wanted an explanation from us.”
Zhao Qingya clenched her fists and slammed them on the table. “What nonsense! We helped them solve such a big problem, and he actually wants to find trouble with us for these little spoils of war. What a bastard! Zhang Kai, call that person over. I want to see what he wants to do!”
“Alright, Boss. I’ll bring that person over now.”
Zhang Kai turned and left, hurrying downstairs to bring his men up.
“That bastard is here. I must teach him a good lesson. He’s simply too detestable! It’s fine if you don’t thank us, but you actually want to find trouble with us!”
The anger in her heart wouldn’t subside as she sat back down.
“Why are you so angry? When that guy comes over, let’s have a good talk.”
Lu Yu appeared very calm. Although he had created those dragon spoils of war, it wasn’t overly difficult for him, so he didn’t get too emotional.
Soon, Zhang Kai returned with someone.
“Mayor, this is the guy.”
“Cough, cough, watch your words. What do you mean by ‘this guy’?”
A man in a black trench coat walked in.
After entering, he hung his bowler hat on the shelf beside him and approached Zhao Qingya.
He pulled out a chair and sat down, facing her.
“Mayor Zhao, how have you been? It’s been a long time.”
“Have we met before?” Zhao Qingya asked coldly.
“You haven’t seen me before, but I’ve seen you.”
“Just tell me, why are you here?” Zhao Qingya demanded.
“Of course we’re here for the dragon corpses. You know that our Black Gold Chamber of Commerce has put in a lot of effort to deal with the dragons. Therefore, it’s normal for us to share some resources.”
He took a deep breath and continued, “I suggest we split it this way. We’ll carry all the dragon corpses outside the city. Then, we’ll split it in half.”
“What do you think?”
Hearing this, Zhao Qingya slammed the table angrily. “Why should you take half?”
“Of course it’s because we contributed.”
“We were the ones who solved it, what does it have to do with you?”
“Of course there is. Our Black Gold Chamber of Commerce has invested so much in the early stages. Does that have nothing to do with us?”
“Yes, you did send out a lot of people to suppress those rampanging dragons, but did they have any effect?” Zhao Qingya countered. “Didn’t they all die? So what role did you play? Are you sending food to the furious dragon?”
Zhao Qingya’s question left the man speechless. He stammered, “This… This is too exaggerated. Our battle actually became a suicide mission in your mouth. Is this how you see us?”
“You’re the one who’s acting like this,” Zhao Qingya sneered. “Originally, on account of the fact that you didn’t contribute much, I’ll give you a little. But you’re quite arrogant. You actually dare to ask for so much! Are you courting death?”
Zhao Qingya’s scolding made the man cower.
“Well, I don’t want it anymore, okay? Don’t be angry. I shouldn’t have come.”
“Yes, you shouldn’t have come. You shouldn’t have appeared in this world yet!”
After being scolded, the man stood up and apologized repeatedly before fleeing the place in a sorry state.
“Who doesn he think he is? I can’t believe he still dare to ask for compensation from me. The people of the Black Gold Chamber of Commerce are simply greedy for money!”
Zhao Qingya looked at Lu Yu and said, “Let’s go. You have completed your quest well. The threats in the surroundings have been completely eliminated. Now, let’s start our journey to the capital.”
“How? Teleportation Gate, or fly over? The capital should be very far, right?” Lu Yu asked.
“Of course it’s far. So, let’s use the Teleportation Gate to hurry.”
Zhao Qingya stood up and went to the full-length mirror to fix her makeup.
“We’ll go to the Teleportation Gate in the center of Black Gold City and head to Jasper City.”
Lu Yu looked at Zhao Qingya. “Jasper City? What kind of city is that?”
“It’s very beautiful and bustling. The people living there are all nobles. They enjoy the highest-end service and pleasant scenery.”
“That city is located at the lower end of the most beautiful scenery. It’s surrounded by green mountains and clear waters. There are beautiful flowers all over the mountains and plains. You should really go over and take a look. It’s definitely beautiful.”
“Of course, we can’t waste too much time. After all, you’re not here for a vacation.”
Lu Yu smiled and nodded. “That’s right. But hearing what you said, I want to go and take a look too.”
“Then let’s go. We’ll set off now. We don’t have anything to prepare. We can just go over.”
Then, Zhao Qingya picked up her handbag and put all the documents on the table into her bag. She then dressed herself up and set off with Lu Yu.
The two of them walked down the street and headed towards the city center.
Black Gold City was now much more lively and prosperous. The big trouble outside the city had been cleared. For everyone, it was something to be excited about.
Although most of them didn’t know who did it, it didn’t stop them from celebrating.
Lu Yu and Zhao Qingya arrived at the plaza in the center of the city. The plaza was surrounded by people who were selling all kinds of small goods.
After all, this was the area with the most traffic. It would naturally be much easier to set up a stall here to earn money.
Lu Yu arrived in front of the Teleportation Gate.
“In the Ten Thousand Dragon Country, magic is our weakness. Therefore, teleportation array formations that require magic are very rare.”
“Therefore, although the Teleportation Gate in front of us isn’t large, it’s already very rare.”
“Once we enter the passageway, we will be able to reach Jasper City!”
“If we take the train, it will take half a day to get there.”
Lu Yu looked at Zhao Qingya. “I’ve never seen a train before in Ten Thousand Dragon Country.”
“It’s normal that you haven’t seen it before. Trains are usually used to transport goods, and ordinary people still travel in carriages. This kind of teleportation array can only be used by high officials and nobles. Obviously, the two of us are completely qualified to use it.”
Then, the two of them walked into the fence and followed a small path toward the Teleportation Gate.
