Fairy Tail: I Am the God

Leon smiled, then turned around and prepared to go to sleep!

But as soon as he turned around, he opened his mouth to look at the scene in front of him, and finally had no choice but to walk helplessly out of the courtyard to the Xiao family's building management office.

Frustrated after completing the paperwork for his new place, Leon reluctantly went to bed.

In the following days, Leon spent his time sparring with Xiao Yan and Xun'er every day, in addition to his own training, helping them improve their combat skills.

Time flies, and the Xiao family once again faced an attack from the Jialie family. With the Jialie family's healing medicine entering the market, the Xiao family's business suffered a great blow.

Moreover, this impact was even more intense than that in the original story; the Garrett family went completely mad.

Large quantities of healing medicine were sent to the market for sale, and the prices were very cheap, at least in the eyes of the mercenaries.

In less than a month, the sales volume of Xiaojiafang Market plummeted, losing even less than one-fifth of its previous level.

Part of the reason for this strong impact came from Leon, whose deception caused Galeo to waste a whole year.

If Leon hadn't broken through his cultivation level and hadn't gone to Master Gu Ni to ask him, he probably would still be in the dark.

Now that he knew everything, Galio was furious and wanted nothing more than to tear Leon to pieces!

The even more severe economic shock now is the work of Galeo, and of course, his father Galeo agrees with this idea.

It would both avenge his son and cause trouble for the Xiao family, so why wouldn't Jia Liebi do it?

Finally, without any warning, the Xiao family's market was severely impacted by the Jia Lie family within a month, to the point that it was almost unable to recover.

Of course, with the secret help of Leon and Xiao Yan, a pill that could instantly restore the fighting spirit of martial artists below the Dou Shi level soon appeared in the Xiao family's market.

With the bronze dragon-head cauldron given by Leon, along with some medicinal herbs and gold coins provided by Leon, the Xiao family's marketing quickly recovered.

Although they haven't yet overwhelmed the Jia Lie family, the fact that they've been able to restore their original performance has brought a sigh of relief to the Xiao family.

"Yan'er, Xiaofei, you two have made a great contribution to our Xiao family this time. The elders and I have made a decision to give you two a small reward."

On a bright, sunny day, Xiao Zhan gathered Leon and Xiao Yan together and summoned them to the clan leader's residence. When the two met Xiao Zhan, he went straight to the point.

“Father, there’s no need to give us any reward. We’re both members of the Xiao family. What’s wrong with doing something for our family?”

Xiao Yan shook his head, indicating that he did not need it.

“Uncle Xiao Zhan, although I am not a member of the Xiao family, my feelings for the Xiao family are no less than those for Xiao Yan.”

Leon also spoke with a serious expression.

"Good boy!"

Xiao Zhan nodded with satisfaction and said calmly:

"This reward is agreed upon by everyone in the family, so you can accept it without worry. There's nothing wrong with it!"

"what?"

Xiao Yan asked helplessly.

"The eastern market is unmanaged, so I've decided to send the two of you to be market managers in the eastern market of Wutan City to gain experience. After the assessment at Canaan Academy, you will go to the academy to train, and I will send more people over there!"

Xiao Zhan said with a smile.

"Is this a reward?"

Leon and Xiao Yan exchanged a glance, a wry smile playing on their lips.

Chapter 341, Running into an old idiot while shopping. (Third update)

After Xiao Zhan declined several times, Xiao Yan reluctantly accepted the reward. In the end, he could only leave the clan leader's residence in a sullen mood and return to his courtyard to pack his clothes.

Because Xiao Zhan actually told them to go to the market immediately, and this identity had been arranged for them as soon as they entered Xiao Zhan's residence.

Leon said he didn't care.

Xiao Yan arrived at the Xiao family's gate in a bad mood.

"If I had known, I wouldn't have gone with you. If I had let you go alone, I wouldn't have had to take on this job."

Xiao Yan complained.

“Go ahead, being a shopkeeper isn’t tiring, and if the two of us go together, it’ll be no different from staying at the Xiao family.”

"I can't help it," Leon said helplessly.

……

"Hey, Captain Ling, you're back with the team?"

As soon as Xiao Yan arrived at the market, he ran into an acquaintance and greeted him.

"Xiao Yan, what's up? Here again?"

The middle-aged man, whom Xiao Yan called Captain Ling, chuckled and teased.

"Ugh, what a load of crap, I've been assigned here to manage the market."

Xiao Yan pouted and said dejectedly.

"Young Master Xiao Yan, don't worry. We mercenary teams all know you well. No one will cause trouble here. You can rest assured!"

Captain Ling patted his chest and said confidently.

"Thank you in advance, Captain Ling! From now on, all Qi-restoring pills purchased from my Xiao family's shop will be 20% off!"

Xiao Yan waved his hand and said curiously.

"Don't worry, this market will definitely be the best in Wutan City from now on, everyone agree, right?!"

A glint of light flashed in Captain Ling's eyes as he said happily.

"Yes, yes, yes, how could we not give Young Master Xiao Yan face?"

A mercenary captain nodded and said.

"Captain Huang, Captain Ye, Captain Karin."

Xiao Yan called out the names of more than a dozen people, and these names happened to be the names of the captains of these dozen or so mercenary squads.

"Thank you all! From now on, anyone who comes to the East Market to buy Qi-restoring pills will get a 20% discount!" Xiao Yan said with a smile.

"Young Master Xiao Yan is truly straightforward!"

"Young Master Xiao Yan, you are still the most generous!"

The mercenaries were overjoyed and showered Xiao Yan with praise.

"Alright, everyone's busy, we need to go and arrange our own accommodations first!"

Xiao Yan cupped his hands in farewell to everyone, and amidst their friendly farewells, he and Leon headed towards the residence of the market keeper.

After a brief chat, Leon and Xiao Yan went to their respective residences and began to set up.

In the days that followed, thanks to Xiao Yan's words, the eastern market became the safest place in Wutan City, and sales there skyrocketed thanks to Xiao Yan's connections.

Although the 20% discount resulted in a slight loss of revenue, it brought in even greater revenue, since the discount only applied to Qi-restoring pills.

Under these circumstances, Xiao Yan would wander around aimlessly every day, then cultivate to improve his strength. As for Leon, he wasn't too busy either.

The uneventful days continued, and as time passed, three women and one man arrived in the eastern market town.

The visitors were members of the Xiao family: Xun'er, Xiao Yu, Xiao Mei, and Xiao Ning.

What are you doing here? Buying something?

Leon raised an eyebrow and smiled at the four of them.

"Yes, we just came to stroll around the market. Why don't you come with us for a walk?"

Xiao Yu's lips twitched, and she said with a forced smile.

"Well, that works too, I don't have anything else to do right now anyway."

Leon nodded and said.

"it is good!"

Xiao Yu and Xiao Mei nodded, pleased.

"Let's go then."

Leon smiled calmly and walked straight into the market.
