Douluo Continent: The Evil-Eyed Dragon God, Many Women, Many Blessings

Chapter 81 The Big Shot is Actually Right Beside Me?!

It has to be said that the college's method of inducing young, inexperienced students to overspend in order to attract talent seems no different from the targeted enrollment system of the past. The more they take, the more they will be manipulated when it comes time to pay back their debts, ultimately becoming insignificant cogs in a machine, contributing their entire lives to certain interest groups.

The more ordinary a child's family background, the more they are controlled and manipulated!
The allocation of resources seems to be inherently unfair in any world.
Huo Yuhao pondered for a moment, then turned and left.

After class the next afternoon, at Xiao Xiao's insistence, the Di Qianqiu team and the Ning Tian team had a get-together at "Xiao Men Kan" skewers restaurant on Shrek Commercial Street, ostensibly to "cheer on the friendship forged in the competition."

All six were Soul Masters. Although they were young, they had big appetites. The table was surrounded by five whole vegetable racks full of ingredients, and they were enjoying their meal immensely.

After being enveloped in the spicy and numbing aroma of the food, the initially awkward atmosphere gradually warmed up, and the five women and one man chatted enthusiastically.

Xiao Xiao stuffed a large piece of beef tripe into her mouth and said while chewing, "I heard that tonight's treasure viewing event is specially set up for us. I hope it's not too expensive. It would be too painful if we could see it but couldn't afford it."

Wu Feng Hehe
She smiled and said, "Don't worry, Xiao Xiao. Since it was prepared especially for us, most of the items shouldn't be too outrageously expensive. Besides, we core disciples are eligible to buy on credit."

"Buy on credit?" Wang Dong'er looked up curiously.

Ning Tian nodded slightly and began to explain in detail. As the little princess of the Nine Treasure Glazed Tile School, she had already inquired about these matters: "That's right. These treasure appreciation events are usually divided into three types. The first type is held for Shrek Academy, where the academy makes the purchases, such as various rare metals needed by the Soul Guidance Department, teaching supplies used by the Martial Soul Department, and precious ingredients for the cafeteria. Apart from the items ordered by the academy and teachers, these treasure appreciation events generally don't have anything too good."

"The other two types of treasure appreciation events are for us students, and there are even more good items there. One type is for inner court students, and those are all top-quality items, and it is said that soul bones will appear every time. However, only inner court students are qualified to participate. The other type is like this one, which is specially organized for our outer court core disciples."

"The core disciples of Shrek Academy have a 95% or higher chance of graduating from the outer academy, and all students who can graduate from Shrek's outer academy are highly sought-after talents, regardless of their country or industry."

"So these businesses are essentially investing in us. They sign a contract with us with a set date, and then we repay the loan annually according to that date. They can even postpone repayment until after we graduate, charging only a small amount of interest."

"If a core disciple can enter the inner academy, their benefits will increase, and they won't need to pay any interest; they only need to repay the principal within the specified period. Moreover, there are various ways to repay the principal."

Xiao Xiao exclaimed with delight, "This is actually quite good for us!"

"Not bad?" Upon hearing this, Huo Yuhao chuckled and shook his head.

Hearing the hidden meaning in Huo Yuhao's laughter, Ning Tian's expression shifted slightly, and he smiled, "Yuhao, you seem to have a different opinion?"

Huo Yuhao put down his chopsticks, took a sip of orange juice, and slowly said, "Taking advantage of others never falls from the sky. The more you take now, the more you'll be bound to them in the future. You're obligated to do favors. If someone asks you to do something for them later, how will you refuse? Or will they simply ask you not to repay the loan and make you pay it off by doing favors? In the long run, won't you become a slave?"

Hearing Huo Yuhao's words, Ning Tian frowned. After a moment's thought, he realized that although Huo Yuhao's words were somewhat crude and blunt, it seemed...quite possible!

Huo Yuhao glanced at the five girls, who were deep in thought with furrowed brows, chuckled to himself, and began to eat heartily.

He will be competing with Tang Shenwang in the future, and no assistance can be ignored. Ning Tian and Wu Feng, this little lesbian couple, will definitely be high-level members of the Nine Treasure Glazed Tile School in the future. The forces behind Wang Dong'er and Di Qianqiu are also among the top in the continent. Xiao Xiao herself is worth winning over, as she has twin martial souls!
Including Shrek Academy, although Tang Shenwang wouldn't casually use divine intervention, these forces are all inextricably linked to him. Huo Yuhao wouldn't be surprised if he secretly had some means to influence or manipulate them. If these promising young people got too close to Shrek, wouldn't they become obstacles to his plan to "steal" Shrek if it failed?
He absolutely wouldn't allow such a thing to happen; he had to plant a seed of doubt in the girls' minds beforehand and keep them wary of Shrek.

Moreover, his words were actually somewhat sincere: taking out loans to shop and overspending can really ruin a person's life if they're not careful!

Don't assume that sect leaders like Ning Tian and Wang Dong'er are wealthy; they have plenty of ways to trap you!
With Shrek Academy's accumulated wealth over thousands of years, it would be incredibly easy for them to come up with some amazing treasures to tempt these young girls who are at the age where their desire to buy is at its peak! If they were to offer limited-time purchases, discounts, or even zero down payments, and trick these young girls into signing loan contracts, then there would be plenty of room for maneuvering!

Xiao Xiao thought for a long time, then her face suddenly fell: "So, if we come across something good, we can only look at it and not eat it?"

Huo Yuhao chuckled: "That's not necessarily true. If you really come across something suitable, you can borrow money from us. It's better to owe us money than to be tied down by the academy, right? I can guarantee that money is money and favors are favors. I will never use debts to ask you to do anything for me in the future."

Ning Tian and Wang Dong'er smiled and nodded in agreement.

Xiao Xiao then smiled and gave a crisp "Mmm".

As classmates with a pure friendship, Xiao Xiao has developed a lot of trust in Huo Yuhao, Ning Tian, ​​and the others after spending this time together.

The six of them ate for a while longer, and when they saw that it was almost time, they got up and left, satisfied.

Ning Tian called over the owner, ready to pay the bill: "Boss, how much is this table?"

The middle-aged man smiled, glanced at Huo Yuhao, and respectfully asked, "Boss, how did you find the food? Is there anything that could be improved?"

Huo Yuhao chuckled and waved his hand at him: "Not bad, you've got nine-tenths of my skill. Keep it up."

He personally provided technical guidance to this particular store on Shrek Street.

"Alright, boss, take care!"

Having received Huo Yuhao's approval, the middle-aged man happily went to tidy up the table.

Ning Tian and Wu Feng stared blankly at the two talking. Ning Tian asked in surprise, "Yuhao, are you the mastermind behind this store?"

Wang Dong'er chuckled: "It's not just this one. The founders of the 'Xiaomenkan' and 'Hudilao' chain brands are Huo Yuhao. You should have heard of them in other cities, right? Otherwise, how could he dare to say he would lend money to Xiao Xiao?"

Ning Tian was immediately shocked. These two chain hot pot restaurants have been open for several years and have branches in major cities. How rich must Huo Yuhao be after all these years of accumulation!
Unexpectedly, a self-made billionaire was right next to me!
I want to eat it too! Let's go for hot pot tomorrow! Please vote! Recommend and save this post!
