Survival Game: Call Me an Honest Businessman

Li Zhi got up very early.

She woke up naturally as dawn broke.

Looking down from the floor-to-ceiling window, I saw that Bai Ge had also gotten up.

Herdon wasn't there; it was Hena on patrol today. The other hyena girls had also been replaced, probably for a shift change.

While Li Zhi was preparing for business operations in an orderly manner, he was also preparing to participate in the trade fair.

This was her first time participating in a formal business event on the Tianqi Continent.

Not only do we need to find partners for the exchange, but we also need to strive for the opportunity to establish the exchange in Saint Shadow City from the high-ranking members of the Saint lineage attending the conference. If everything goes smoothly, we can also find a few foreign businessmen worth investing in at the trade conference.

Put on all the equipment you're going to wear, familiarize yourself with the positions of the weapons and cards by category, and finally take out the inlaid Apocalypse Dust and Velvet Oil to check them.

Only after confirming that everything was accurate did she teleport directly to Black Iron Harbor.

Black Iron Port will officially open after the trade fair. During this period, Celia, as the head of commerce in Black Iron Port, is also busy improving the various facilities of Black Iron Port.

When Li Zhi arrived, he happened to run into Riley, who was strolling around the port.

She sported a meticulously groomed head of curly hair, wore a crown unique to the royal family of the Forging Clan, and kicked a stone that seemed to have been dug out of some crack.

The stone was too small, and the force was unevenly distributed, so it couldn't be kicked into the sea.

She ran up and kicked him a few more times, getting angrier the more she kicked.

Li Zhi couldn't help but laugh: "What are you doing?"

Riley immediately stepped on the stone and slowly pushed it into the gap between the dock tiles. However, the rebuilt port was high-end and classy, ​​and the entire dock was made of a single piece of unknown stone, so it was impossible to leave any gaps.

No matter how hard she tried, she couldn't get it in; her ears grew redder and redder, and she became increasingly angry.

A metallic sheen of armor instantly appeared on the exquisite satin boots.

With one stomp, the stone shattered, and the high-end, sophisticated brickwork on the dock also crumbled.

Riley: "!"

Li Zhi: "!"

The patrolling Forging Clan guards were already heading this way.

The two exchanged a glance.

Li Zhi retreated back into the teleportation array, and Riley jumped in instantly as well.

"Hurry, hurry, hurry! Go anywhere!"

The teleportation array flashed.

Li Zhi has already returned to his spaceship.

Riley looked around in surprise: "Is this your room? What's that?"

Li Zhi followed Riley's gaze.

It turned out to be yellow peaches that had been taken out that morning.

Yellow peaches.

"What is that?"

Li Zhi took one out of the box, washed it, and gave it to her to eat.

"A fruit from a newly emerging race, give it a try."

Riley didn't stand on ceremony. She plopped down on Li Zhi's sofa, crossed her legs, and started eating a yellow peach that was half the size of her face.

"tasty."

Li Zhi also sat down: "Hurry back after you finish eating. You need to make it clear to Celia later that that brick has nothing to do with me."

In Celia's eyes, as long as she was with Riley, she was definitely the mastermind.

This is also why Li Zhi ran so fast.

That huge piece of raw stone, perfectly matching the size of Black Iron Port, no one knew where it came from or how it was cut. Although Li Zhi had never worked in engineering, he knew it couldn't be simple.

Why did I run into something like this as soon as I came out?

Isn't that a bit unlucky?

Thinking this way, she felt that today was a very important day, and quietly activated a lucky card.

Riley looked up: "Why do I sense fluctuations in mental energy?"

Li Zhi: "I just used some mental energy."

Riley: "Oh."

She buried her head and continued eating the yellow peaches.

Li Zhi sighed.

Riley sighed, "Don't worry, I'll definitely be on your side today."

Li Zhi: "...It wasn't me who stepped on it and broke it."

Riley: "No, it's that one, Perth. You don't know her now, but you'll meet her soon. She's Celia's successor. She's been training in Nanqi, and she came back today because of the trade fair. She knows you've taken Celia as your teacher, and she doesn't like you."

Riley thought for a moment: "Just like my sister doesn't like me."

Li Zhi never expected to receive such important information ahead of time.

"She's Celia's successor, which means she's also Celia's student?"

Riley: "No, Celia's teacher, Lilith, only has Celia as her student, and Celia only has one student."

Riley tilted his head and looked at Li Zhi: "We all thought we would take Perth in sooner or later, but we didn't expect her to recognize you as her student. She has also introduced you to other merchants in the Chamber of Commerce. You are her student, which is actually very rare in our clan."

Li Zhi was taken aback: "Did she also tell the merchants of the Smelting and Forging Clan that I was her student?"

"Yes," Riley said while munching on a yellow peach. "She also seemed to have told Lilith that one day she returned to her clan's territory and went to Lilith's grave. No one knows what she said, but from then on, everyone knew you were her student. Introducing one's student to one's teacher first, and then to others, is also a kind of inheritance."

Li Zhi stood up from the sofa.

"What are you going to do?"

"It's nothing."

She took instant noodles and cola out of the warehouse and put them in her spatial backpack. After thinking for a moment, she added yellow peaches and watermelon, as well as two packets of snail rice noodles.

Only then did he sit back down on the sofa.

Riley stared curiously, asking, "What are those?"

Li Zhi: "It's nothing."

Riley: "I saw one of them. I even had it when you opened your business the day before yesterday. It's called Coca-Cola."

Li Zhi: "You already know, why are you asking?"

Riley carefully put away the peach pit.

Clear water appeared in her hand, washing her hands clean of the juice. The water flowed naturally into a stream of fluid, then was collected into her pocket. A handkerchief of excellent quality automatically wiped her hands clean.

She collapsed onto Li Zhi's sofa.

"Li Zhi, I don't want to go to the trade conference."

Li Zhi: "I want to go."

Riley: "I don't like my sister."

Li Zhi: "Was she very bad to you?"

Riley shook her head: "Everyone thinks she's nice, and she's nice to me, but I know she doesn't like me."

Li Zhi: "I understand."

Riley was very unhappy: "How did you know? Do you also have a sister who doesn't like you?"

Li Zhi shrugged: "Yes, and it's quite a coincidence. Everyone thinks she's nice, and she's very nice to me in front of others, but I know she doesn't like me."

Riley's eyes lit up: "Wow! No wonder I like you, we're alike!"

Li Zhi: "It's different. You're afraid of your sister and want her to like you, but I'm not afraid of her. She should be afraid of me instead."

Why should she be afraid of you? Is she weak in combat? But you're weak too.

Li Zhi was speechless for a moment: "Who says strength can only be determined by combat power? She's afraid of me because I know her secrets and weaknesses, but I don't have any secrets or weaknesses against her... However, this is a new world now. Those secrets are no longer secrets, and weaknesses are probably no longer weaknesses either."
