Survival Game: Call Me an Honest Businessman

After leaving Black Iron Port, Li Zhi went straight back to Never Forget the Danger.

The grocery store had already closed, and Bai Ge was taking inventory and settling accounts.

Feng Aotian also arrived, and was chatting with He Dong and the others while cleaning.

Seeing Li Zhi enter, the group casually turned around to greet him, then went about their own business, appearing relaxed and at ease.

Li Zhi took out a table and placed the Yuling tribe's special delicacies that she had packed back from Mingchun that she hadn't eaten yet on it: "Thank you all for your hard work, come and have some late-night snacks."

Feng Aotian: "This looks incredibly expensive! This kind of plating would be at least Michelin-starred on Earth, and probably even more expensive on the Tianqi Continent! Does one dish cost 1 silver coin?!"

Li Zhi: "It didn't cost any money, Ling treated us. You saw her on the opening day, the Feathered Spirit Clan with silver wings and silver hair."

Feng Aotian: "I remember, that girl who looked both incredibly sunny and incredibly aloof, I saw her at first glance, she gave off a very contradictory yet incredibly attractive vibe."

Li Zhi: "Next time, praise it in front of people."

Feng Aotian: "I'm sorry."

Li Zhi: "Just be sincere. If you're shy, practice more. No one will dislike a sincere compliment."

Bai Ge nodded repeatedly: "You are the best role model right in front of you. You can come and help every day and learn from him. If you can learn even half of what our boss has to offer, you will benefit immensely."

Feng Aotian: "If I'm going to learn something, I have to learn it completely."

Bai Ge chuckled and said, "How can you possibly learn all of this?"

Feng Aotian: "Why? I have a strong learning ability. Since I was a child, as long as I was willing to learn, I would never be second place."

Bai Ge: "This is related to personality, talent, and upbringing. You're not Sanwu, so of course you can't be 100% like her. Besides, you are yourself. How can you learn 100% from someone else?"

Feng Aotian seemed to be deep in thought.

While Bai Ge was speaking, the tableware had already been set out.

Hena and the hyena girls sat down naturally. They had learned to use chopsticks in the past few days and were already quite good at picking up food.

Bai Ge sat next to Li Zhi. She ate while bringing up topics, but she didn't talk about work. However, every sentence she said was something that everyone could respond to, and no one felt excluded.

Li Zhi had already eaten, so he only drank some soup.

Listen quietly to their conversation.

After everyone finished eating, Li Zhicai and Bai Ge went up to the rooftop terrace together.

Bai Ge: "Boss, what's the Feathered Spirit Clan's trade fair like?"

Li Zhi: "It's not much different from the chamber of commerce I attended on Earth, except it's in the sky, bigger, and has more of the characteristics of the Feathered Spirit Clan."

She turned to look at Bai Ge: "I thought you would ask me about the new S-level information in the store, and why I didn't reply to your message that you were safe."

Bai Ge: "You are my boss now, and you have your own reasons for doing everything."

Li Zhi lay back, completely reclining on the recliner.

Above was not the night sky, but the sky fortress of the Forging Clan, which could blot out the sun. Red and gold lights flashed occasionally, signal lights indicating that the engines were running continuously.

Li Zhi: "It's fine to do surveillance or intelligence gathering in secret; everyone does it. But it would be best if you all standardized your methods across different areas. I need guards, not surveillance cameras. I don't want to see a situation where I call out and only one person comes out next time."

Bai Ge sat up straight: "Could you tell me in detail what happened today?"

Li Zhi calmly recounted how he discovered he was being followed at the Hundred Beasts Market that day, and how, after calling for help, only Yan Gui came out.

Bai Ge's face turned pale: "Boss, believe me, I didn't know about this. And I can guarantee that since the organization agreed to send people over, they would never allow them to obstruct you or go against your wishes. Something must have gone wrong."

Li Zhi also believed Bai Ge's words: "I know the authorities wouldn't do such a thing, but I only care about the results. Regardless of any internal conflicts that led to this outcome, my trust in you has been greatly diminished. I can tell you directly about that S-level message, and I won't quote a price. How much you offer depends on your sincerity."

She told Bai Ge directly about the beast tide.

After saying that, he stood up and said, "My cooperation with District 15 has always been quite pleasant. I hope the Beast Market will not disappoint me this time."

Li Zhi did not rest, but went to the Yunkuang mine.

Since they were all packed up, she couldn't show favoritism, so she asked the kitchen to make an extra portion.

As Li Zhigang stepped out of his dormitory, he heard the sounds of chatting and laughing outside, a lively and bustling atmosphere full of the warmth of everyday life.

She sent a message to the student who was greedy for life before she arrived.

So as soon as Li Zhigang opened the door, the greedy pass peeked out of his room:

"Sanwu! You're back!"

"I brought you some late-night snacks."

"Wow! I'm starving! Sis! Teacher Hao! Take a seat! Chang Ling! Time for a midnight snack!"

"Tan Sheng Pass" shouted, and all the other doors opened.

It's been quite hot during the day these past few days, but the temperature at night is just right, and being in the mountains, it's even a bit cool.

Everyone gathered on the terrace and sat together to eat.

Li Zhi also only drank one bowl of soup.

While eating, Tan Sheng kept asking Li Zhi about the details of the trade fair.

Upon hearing about the appearance of the dragon race, Li Zhi touched the little dragon's horns and exclaimed, "Wow! A dragon! A three-headed little dragon! When will I ever see a dragon?!"

She then brought up the scene of the opening of the dilapidated general store.

He gestured wildly as he spoke: "I've never seen so many different humanoid creatures in my entire life. You have no idea, when that demon flew over, I was actually terrified. Just one look from her and I felt like I was about to be thrown into a vat of boiling oil..."

"But you're just standing there, with so many people behind you, and there are customers behind me who are even more scared than me, so I don't feel scared anymore. At least I can't let these customers think I'm scared, otherwise they'll definitely doubt the safety of this place, and also..."

Li Zhi listened to her with his chin propped up, and then, not forgetting the danger of the opening ceremony, he talked about what had happened at Yunkuang in the past few days, occasionally eating a few bites of food.

The others ate without looking up, occasionally chiming in with a comment.

A refreshing breeze carrying the scent of grass and trees blows from the mountains and forests.

The tension and danger of the day seemed to dissipate at this moment.

I felt completely relaxed.
