Survival Game: Call Me an Honest Businessman

As the first rays of light appeared on the horizon, the port of Feather Spirit Avenue was already filled with all sorts of vehicles.

The phantom train and the portal kept flashing, and waves of passengers emerged from the train or the portal as the morning light shone through.

Li Zhi's level 4 merchant cloak blended into the crowd like a drop of water in a river, attracting no one's attention.

"It's so lively here."

Beside Li Zhi was a fox-clan beastman, also wearing a cloak.

She looked around, her eyes filled with curiosity.

Li Zhi: "It'll get even more exciting later."

Fox-clan beastman: "Tell me, did Ao tell Yi yesterday whether the tribute was stolen or not?"

Li Zhi: "You'll find out soon enough."

She led the tiger-clan beastmen along the Feather Spirit Avenue.

After walking only a few steps, I noticed the changes on Feather Spirit Avenue.

It's not just decorative balloons, projections, clouds, etc., but the fact that Feather Spirit Avenue used to be a straight road leading to the end of the avenue.

Now, a tall building stands in the central square, cutting the entire Feather Spirit Avenue in two.

It attracted the attention of all the visitors.

Inside the high-rise building, Yi was making final preparations.

"Where are all the things?"

Yi's guard captain said, "I heard they're still on their way, but Lan assured us they'll arrive before the ceremony ends."

Yi nodded: "I heard that Ao executed a guard yesterday? What happened?"

Lan: "I'm not quite sure either. Some say it's because the guard neglected his duties, while others say the guard gave false orders and angered His Highness."

Yi became interested: "Ao's subordinates dare to forge orders? Have I seen that guard before? What's his name?"

Lan: "You've met him. He's a guard at the entrance of the Crown Prince's residence. He's even run errands for you before."

Yi: "What orders were falsely conveyed?"

Lan: "I only learned that last night His Majesty summoned the Crown Prince to Yu City. After the Crown Prince returned, he smashed many things. In addition to executing the guard, the other guards who left with that guard were also severely punished."

Yi shook his head: "Ao is still too young. She just returned from Yu City and got so angry. It's hard not to wonder who she was angry at. If she hadn't been born with outstanding talent and her attribute points were almost maxed out, just one step away from S-rank, the position of the first crown prince would never have fallen to her."

Lan tapped the virtual screen in his hand and said, "My Lord, Tanlai of the Titan race has arrived."

Yi: "Let's go and greet our distinguished guests. By the way, deal with that fleshy man as soon as it arrives. After the celebration, the exchange will officially open. These fleshy men are for entertaining shareholders and distinguished guests, so we can't afford any mistakes."

"Yes."

When Yi and the Titans reunited, Li Zhi had already arrived outside the soon-to-open exchange.

Many businessmen are discussing the opening of the stock exchange.

When talking about what he brought, how many deposit slips he wanted to open, and how much he wanted to get more freebies, especially Didi Beast Blood, he mentioned that he wanted to get more freebies.

Some people also talked about the upcoming beast tide and the leaderboard.

But not long after, as the first rays of sunlight fell on the port of Feather Spirit Avenue, cannons in the sky exploded like fireworks.

Colorful clouds were falling with colorful rain, and treasure chests and gift packs of different colors were raining down from the sky.

Li Zhi was eavesdropping on others' conversations when he saw the glittering golden chest in the sky. He couldn't care less about anything else and immediately ran towards the location of the treasure chest.

The merchants in the central square also dispersed.

Search for treasures in different locations along Feather Spirit Avenue.

Lingqiu, disguised as a fox-like beastman, was also excited: "I want that golden treasure chest!"

Li Zhi: "I want one too! And that colorful one, did you see it? I've never seen a colorful treasure chest before."

Lingqiu: "I see it! That must be the Easter egg for this celebration, the only colorful treasure chest. I saw my clansmen heading that way too!"

Li Zhi: "Your clan? Canghai?"

Lingqiu: "A green dragon, do you recognize it?"

Li Zhi: "I know him. He's a shareholder at the exchange. I'll introduce you to him later."

Although the two were chatting, they didn't move very fast.

They found the first box not long after.

"A bronze chest." Lingqiu was delighted. "I haven't opened a chest in ages."

Li Zhi: "Then you drive."

Lingqiu: "Then I'll open it!"

She took out a spirit leaf to wipe her hands before carefully opening the box.

Congratulations on opening the bronze chest! You have obtained 1 white feather, 1 crispy worm, and 10 copper coins.

Li Zhi: "..."

Lingqiu put Lingqiu Leaf back into his spatial storage: "...That's why I haven't opened the box in a long time."

Li Zhi: "It's okay. Besides, we're here to relax today, so let's look around some more."

The Feathered Spirit Clan spared no expense for this grand event, with boxes and gift packs everywhere.

Li Zhi and Ling Qiu hadn't gone far before they had already opened two gift packs, a bronze box, and a silver box.

However, Lingqiu's luck was even worse than Li Zhi's.

Even in silver chests, the total value of the items inside never exceeded one silver coin.

Li Zhi: "Never mind, my teacher asked me where I am. Didn't you say yesterday that you wanted to see her? I'll take you to see her and ask her for a gift."

Lingqiu carefully collected everything she had just unearthed. "Where is she?"

Li Zhi: "It's in the square where the celebration is being held. Are you going to go find Emperor Yu Ling directly, or come with me?"

Lingqiu: "Together with you."

"OK."

The grand square where the celebration was held was located at the other end of Feather Spirit Avenue, just outside the palace of the Feather Spirit Emperor on Feather Spirit Avenue.

When Li Zhi and Ling Qiu arrived, they were stopped by the guards at the gate.

"Attending the ceremony outside without an invitation."

Li Zhi took out the invitation that Yi had specially prepared for her to humiliate her.

Lingqiu then took out the invitation given to him by Yulinghuang.

When Yu Lingwei saw Li Zhi's invitation, his expression was somewhat strange, but after seeing Ling Qiu's invitation, his tone immediately became respectful: "Your seat is in the main hall. Would you like me to take you there?"

Lingqiu: "I'll go over later, thank you."

After Li Zhi and Ling Qiu left, the Feathered Guard immediately contacted Ling, who was in charge of maintaining order for the day: "Captain, a foreigner with an invitation personally presented by the Emperor has arrived, but she is not a dragon, but appears to be a fox merchant. She is with your friend Li Zhi."

Ling, who was patrolling outside the palace, exclaimed in surprise, "Li Zhi?"

"Yes, I am absolutely certain."

Ling: "Which direction did they go?"

Guard: "The banquet hall where the Forging Clan resides."
