Survival Game: Call Me an Honest Businessman

Zero neither agreed nor refused; he accepted the invitation and then disappeared.

Li Zhi didn't mind, and tugged at the little tree's leaves again. Only after she stopped crying did he stuff the invitation into her hand.

"My sister's shop is opening soon, right in the Emerald Mountains. If you have time, bring your friends and come visit."

There is a teleportation array between the Emerald Mountains and the Green Market.

If a child has permission from their parents, or is accompanied by their parents, they can easily attend the banquet.

The little tree-man held up the invitation with its branch: "Is this invitation for me?"

Li Zhi: "Yes."

The little tree-man pulled its roots out of the sand, shook them off, and then planted them back in: "Then I must go!"

What does it feel like to be in the sand?

Little Tree Man: "It's fun when it's warm and cool, but there's no water, and you're not thirsty."

Upon hearing this, Li Zhi plopped down in the sandpit, resting his chin on his knees, and said, "I have a particularly beautiful stream there, as well as very pretty wildflowers and grasses. They all grow very strong and resilient. I think you would love them if you saw them."

"Wow!"

Li Zhi: "What kind of drinks and foods do you like? Do you want me to prepare them for you and your friends in advance?"

Little Tree Man: "Great! Great! I love drinking stream water! I also love drinking spring water! And I love snow! I've never seen snow. There's no snow in the Green Market. I've heard that it snows a lot outside, but I've never seen it. The temperature in the Green Market is about the same every day. It's very comfortable, but sometimes it's a bit boring."

Li Zhi watched it gesturing wildly, its branches and leaves trembling, and chuckled softly, "Alright, I'll prepare some stream water and spring water for you. You can see snow when you come. The snow scenery in my territory is quite nice."

"I will beg my mom to let me go."

While chatting with Little Tree Man, Li Zhi sent an invitation to Ling, as well as to everyone in Group 188, and told Greedy Life Pass about the need to cook for the banquet the day after tomorrow.

Let her and the European Emperor make arrangements.

After leaving the lush green market, Li Zhi returned to Buwangwei.

Bai Ge was busily setting up the venue.

Seeing that she was a bit too busy, Li Zhi thought for a moment and sent a message to He Dong.

The hyena beastmen arrived quickly.

Bai Ge was wiping the windows when he saw a group of hyena beastmen running towards him, and he was startled.

Fortunately, Li Zhi's message arrived in time: "The leader is the young generation manager of the hyena clan, named He Dong. He will become the captain of the guard of Bu Wang Wei in the future. Today, you can get acquainted with him in advance."

Li Zhi granted He Dong and the Hyena Clan authorization to enter the "Never Forget the Danger" area.

They entered the territory without hindrance.

But upon seeing Bai Ge, the group of hyenas stopped, baring their teeth and growling.

—Aside from Li Zhi and Feng Aotian, this group of hyena beastmen still disliked any humans.

Actually, if Feng Aotian were brought along, the situation would be greatly alleviated, but Li Zhi wanted to see how Xiaobaige treated foreigners.

Bai Ge was certainly aware of the feud between humans and the hyena clan.

During this period, whenever humans encountered hyena beastmen in the various trial zones, they almost always suffered casualties.

She also knew that Li Zhi had formed an alliance with the hyena beastmen.

The group even discussed whether to ask Li Zhi to mediate and ease tensions between humans and the hyenas.

However, the final discussion did not involve using Li Zhi's connections.

Asking Li Zhi to do something comes at a high cost.

Moreover, humanity needs to adapt to the rules of the Apocalypse Continent, and also needs to quickly select those who can adapt to the environment amidst brutal competition and pursuit.

Although the hyena tribe harbors extreme hatred towards humans.

However, the group is not very large and its lethality is limited. Using them as a whetstone for human elites is the right way to utilize resources.

Having prepared himself mentally, Bai Ge adjusted his expression and walked out confidently and naturally. "Hello, I'm Bai Ge. You must be my colleagues who will be working with me from now on, right? You've come at the perfect time! All these tables and chairs need to be moved to the second and third floors. My strength is only 8 points, and I was worried about how many trips I would have to make to carry them up. With strong warriors like you by my side, we'll definitely be able to speed things up."

He swallowed the harsh words and warnings that were on the tip of his tongue.

She glanced up and down at Bai Ge, who was only 165cm tall, and noticed that Bai Ge didn't even reach her chest. She said in a subtle tone, "You really are weak. Sisters, let's each take a table and move it upstairs."

The hyena beastmen acted quickly and ignored Bai Ge, only occasionally approaching her and baring their teeth at her.

But they would always receive a grateful smile from Bai Ge.

And so, the tooth retracted.

Li Zhi, who was observing from the shadows, couldn't help but chuckle upon seeing this.

He really is a psychology expert.

Bai Ge has a knack for manipulating both humans and orcs.

She stopped looking and teleported to the Wilderness Market.

Mi was sitting on a chair in the shop, slowly drinking a glass of milk.

Compared to the snowy scenery outside, it felt incredibly warm and cozy.

Upon seeing Li Zhi appear, he scrambled to his feet, guiltily wiping the milk off his beard: "Boss!"

Li Zhi glanced at him, unconcerned: "Do you know how to contact Yin Su and the others?"

Mi Zang paused in his movement of hiding the cup. "I know them! Are you looking for them?"

"These are some invitations. You should have heard that I'm opening a shop at the Green Market. It's opening the day after tomorrow. Could you give these invitations to them? I believe they will come."

"Okay, boss."

Li Zhi then gave Mi a separate sheet: "This is yours."

Mi was flattered: "I have one too?"

"Of course, you are my employee too."

After Li Zhi finished speaking, he turned around and left the shop.

Ignoring the few wandering merchants lingering outside, he placed another invitation at the entrance of the Rong tribe's rabbit hole.

The Rong tribe chief opened the door directly: "My lord."

"An invitation to our new store opening."

The Rong tribe chief's three-lobed mouth trembled as he carefully accepted the invitation from Li Zhi, looking down at it again and again.

"This is the first invitation the Rong ethnic group has received..."

The Rong tribe chief's three-lobed lips trembled. "Thank you, sir, but..."

Li Zhi interrupted the Rong tribe chief.

"I knew you couldn't go, so I was only planning to leave the invitations at the door."

Li Zhi was well aware of how the Rong tribe's presence at the banquet as guests would be perceived by the group of higher races, led by Celia.

Especially at this crucial time when she is looking for a partner for the exchange.

But this is an invitation that all employees should receive.

Not giving to the Rong ethnic group goes against her principles.

One's inner self will inevitably suffer.

Therefore, she placed the invitation at the entrance of the Rong tribe's cave not to invite the Rong tribe chief to the banquet.

Instead, I tell myself, "I will definitely become stronger until I don't need to make choices about such things."
