Global Mining.

Chapter 760 Let’s Find a Way to Invest
Michael wasn't interested in Samuel's wanted poster. The first thing he did after logging in was check if he had resurrected. Still no, it seemed he would have to wait until Uriel's update was complete in 4 hours to confirm.

Then he asked the butler, "What's the latest situation with the Shinsengumi team?"

The butler said, "Currently, only the arsonist has been detained, and because he is only a subordinate, we cannot disclose more information. As long as he insists it was an accident, that will suffice. This operation has greatly deterred the players in the internet cafe, and it has been very quiet all day. The royal players in Iron Flame Village also seem to have been deterred and have stopped provoking Curry."

Sariel laughed and said, "It seems that Da Chun must be terrified, because the entire China region has become much more restrained!"

Michael felt a little better: "It seems that even if the dog I raise is incompetent, it still has some use as long as it barks a couple of times."

Gabriel said angrily, "But Da Chun's number 1 ranking is really too bad. The first thing the boss will do after his resurrection is to throw him into the void and turn him into space debris..."

……

At this time, Da Chun had also finished browsing the artifact store.

My whole body was numb!

Da Chun discovered that the greatest pain was not being unable to afford it, but just being able to afford it!
Just like with the house I live in, the biggest pain is that I can barely afford it. But the difference is, earning money for a house is hard, so Xiaoqin just rented her uncle's place. But this game's mining coins are so easy to earn, 140 million a day, what reason do I have not to buy one?
There really is one!
If I buy it myself and then go and issue a warrant for the arrest of the Ten Elders, the Ten Elders will see my gear and know that I have 500 million mining coins. Where would I get 500 million coins if I've been in jail for more than ten days?
This investigation could be disastrous! These days, the most lucrative business has been the mermaid selling bread and cigarettes, and she's definitely the most suspicious person involved! But the mermaid's position is already precarious; holding the dual roles of guardian of two major cities is an overreach of authority, and the church dislikes her. If something happens to her, her 140 million a day won't be coming back. Just like six months ago, I never imagined I'd lose my job, and I'm so glad I didn't buy a house back then.

So how should this money be used?

Of course, it's an investment!
Like Vivian's bakery. The difference is, her bakery was partnered with local nobles; it seems you can't open it without a partnership. I need to find some businesses too! Only when my investment is large enough that even the Ten Elders can't stop it will I dare to spend recklessly.

However, it's difficult for newcomers to get involved in industries in the New World. What about the Old World? It seems even less likely. But we can take advantage of this operation to do some research. The judge said that the head maid is the key to entry, so it would be a waste not to make good use of it.

As for Libnashi, you can give her some pocket money first and invest in her. If you can't handle it with your main account, you can use your alt account...

At this point, the manager politely asked, "Sir, do you have any satisfactory equipment?"

Da Chun coughed lightly: "I'm very satisfied with everything. May I go to the weapons shop to take a look?"

The manager smiled and said, "Of course, you're always welcome!"

The manager then respectfully saw Da Chun off as he left the store.

On the way, Da Chun stated his position: "Ms. Libnashi, I actually don't want to buy it."

Libnashi asked in surprise, "If we don't buy it, how can we face the Dark Sage?"

Of course, I'll arm you! It's a disguised form of investment.

Da Chun popped up a trade window for her, but it failed—the system message said: This NPC does not have a trade function.

Um... I made a basic mistake during the public beta's new player period. Just like with Sherry selling flowers back then, you couldn't trade directly; you had to trigger an event! For example, in Oakwood City, when her sister Nabchuanxi popped up a trade window to transfer artifact coins, that triggered a cannon fodder event.

Da Chun decided to be direct: "I'm just a wheelchair-bound paralyzed patient right now. Even if I wear the best gear, how much combat power do I have? I'll give you money and arm you!"

Libnashi was taken aback: "Give me money? No, as the head maid of the palace, I can't do something like accepting money."

Da Chun was a little dazed. "But you personally reported to my alternate account that the Fourth Prince stole a tribute fish from the palace, causing the former chief eunuch to be dismissed for dereliction of duty, and you had an alibi, so you were promoted! Doesn't the palace often do this kind of thing?"

Da Chun changed his approach: "Then I'll buy you the equipment and let you wear it?"

Libnashi said in a deep voice, "That won't work either; it would constitute a disguised attempt to win over the inner court personnel." Still acting? Da Chun exclaimed anxiously, "I'll lend it to you!"

Libnashi sneered, "Let me be frank, issuing the warrant is your mission, I'm just pushing the cart and asking for directions, I don't take on any combat missions or responsibilities!"

You said in front of the judge that you would fully support me! So, you don't trust me, right?

Using the Dark Sage's privileges? That's tantamount to overreaching, no way!
Da Chun simply pulled out all the stops and revealed his identity: "Do you know why I chose you? Because when I was in Oak City, I met a head nurse named Nabuchuanxi, and I felt that you two were very similar."

Da Chun seemed to feel the wheelchair tremble slightly! There's hope!

There has to be a story! Nabuchuanxi first made a contribution as the Tree God, and then she made a contribution by taking down the Nightmare Lord. Can you handle this difference?
Libnashi asked in surprise, "How is it similar?"

They may have similar body types, legs, and even a similar appearance, but their faces may not actually be the same...

Da Chun said, "It's just a strange feeling! She accepted my investment and accomplished something great."

Libnashi said in a deep voice, "I'm sorry, I am an inner court official, absolutely loyal! If you are not satisfied with me, you can go back to the judge and ask to be replaced."

Holy crap, he's completely unresponsive!?
Therefore, her confidence must stem from the fact that the storyline of her alternate account has loaded the Thousand-Year Sealed Book. She is Beelzebub with a thousand years of cultivation, and she really doesn't care about my little bit of flattery.

Well... if I can't handle her, then no one else can. That's loyalty, isn't it? I guess I'll just have to wait for the alt account to give me instructions.

Da Chun was very pleased: "I am very satisfied with you! Let's go and take a look at the weapons."

So Da Chun browsed the weapon shop again, still getting tired of looking, but still wouldn't buy anything. The judge's original conditions were just repairing the crystal core and modifying the wheelchair. Getting any equipment was just asking for trouble.

Libnashi was a little confused: "Sir, have you thought of a strategy?"

Da Chun exclaimed, "Yes, it takes courage! It takes wisdom! It takes justice!"

Ah poof——

Huh? Da Chun turned his head with difficulty and surprise: "Just now, you were laughing?"

Libnashi shook her head: "No!"

Da Chun's playful mood returned: "But I heard laughter."

Libnashi said, "It was me who farted."

Da Chun was stunned. You're supposed to be a cool and elegant head maid of the palace, how could you say something like that?
"Ellen, what's going on?"

Eileen laughed: "If a woman farts in front of you and sullies herself, it's either because she's very close to you and doesn't care, or because she's very disgusted and showing her resistance."

Da Chun was speechless: "So, does that mean I'm disliked by her?"

"probably."

Just then, Libnashi said, "We have received orders from the palace; we can go back now."
