Douluo Continent: Narration Modified, Plot Begins to Collapse

Chapter 89 A scheme to get something for nothing, but the target is the city lord.

After Flanders left, the old man came in, bowed, and said:

"Lord of the city, someone is requesting an audience, claiming to be here regarding matters concerning the money exchange."

Li Changkong's eyes lit up, but he was not in a hurry. He gave the order:

"Let him wait in the meeting room for a while, and tell him I'm dealing with important matters."

The old man nodded, and soon led Bai Yu to the reception room. After giving him a few words of advice, he was about to leave when Bai Yu suddenly smiled and said:

"Please tell the city lord that Flander has already transferred Shrek Academy."

The old man shuddered, turned back and gave Bai Yu a deep look before hurriedly leaving the reception room.

Soon, Li Changkong rushed over, but when he saw the young Bai Yu, he was suddenly stunned.

Before Li Changkong could speak, Bai Yu stood up, cupped his hands, and said:

"Lord City Lord, seeing is believing!"

Although Li Changkong was puzzled, he did not show it and cupped his hands in a smile:

"Young friend, you jest. I wonder what you meant by what you just said?"

Bai Yu raised the corner of his mouth:

"The literal meaning. I'm here on behalf of the money exchange to discuss shareholding matters with the city lord. As a partner, I just want to remind the city lord that Flander has already mortgaged Shrek Academy to the money exchange. If you think he'll obediently hand over the money, you can't hide forever. Sorry, he's already gone."

So he came representing a money exchange. I was wondering where a money exchange owner could be so young. I guess I was overthinking it. Li Changkong asked:

How did you know I fined him?

"It's simple. If the City Lord's Mansion still had money, it wouldn't have used three favors to invest in the money shop. And since Flander is a Soul Saint, it's reasonable for you to ask him for some money."

Li Changkong's lips twitched:

"Young friend, you are indeed very straightforward."

Bai Yu laughed heartily:

"Your time is precious, so I won't beat around the bush. Didn't you want to acquire 15% of the bank's shares? My boss's idea is to exchange Shrek Academy for the 15% of shares you already own."

Li Changkong was shocked:

"Isn't this like getting something for nothing? Your boss doesn't lose anything in the end, but I have to make three promises?"

Not only that, I also gained the favor of several major families in Soto City because I helped them retain their 20% stake. Bai Yu smiled:

"What do you mean by that? My boss went through a lot of trouble to acquire Shrek Academy. That's the culmination of years of hard work by Flander, a Soul Saint. To give it all away to you, City Lord, is truly a bit hard for my boss!"

Li Changkong remained silent and began to ponder.

If Flander really mortgaged the academy, why did he agree to pay the fine so readily? Was he planning to run away?

I need to keep a close eye on him, and if I get Shrek Academy, can I squeeze more money out of Flander?

If all else fails, I'll just sell Shrek Academy. Under Flander's name, that old owl still has some reputation.

"Deal!" Li Changkong smiled. "I see you've achieved so much at such a young age, how about we become friends? My name is Li Changkong, I'm thirty-nine years old, a Soul Emperor. And you?"

Bai Yu smiled:

"Bai Yu, thirteen years old, Soul Master, currently a student at Shrek Academy."

"A student from Shrek Academy?"

Li Changkong looked puzzled, but Bai Yu waved his hand and laughed:

"This is merely a nominal identity; I hope the City Lord understands."

Li Changkong suddenly realized.

Maybe it was the "boss" behind Bai Yu who placed him in Shrek Academy.

Bai Yu then said:

"Lord, you needn't worry about my attitude. I'm not here for those four guys. I'm just here to deliver a message. If my boss needs anything in the future, he'll contact you through me. Could you please provide your contact information?"

After a moment of contemplation, Li Changkong gave Bai Yu a token.

"This is the city lord's token. Seeing this token is like seeing me. I am quite well-known in the empire. No matter which city you go to, just show this token and the local city lord will naturally have a way to contact me."

Bai Yu nodded, accepted the token, and took his leave, satisfied.

After Bai Yu left, Li Changkong called the old man in.

"Arrange for some people to finalize the equity and Shrek Academy transfer agreement. But don't rush to publicize it. Wait a month, then send people outside Shrek Academy to spread rumors that Flander has mortgaged the academy."

The old man looked completely bewildered.

What do you mean? I was only gone for the time it takes for an incense stick to burn, how did Shrek Academy become the property of our city lord's mansion?

What's going on??

. . . . . . .

"vomit!"

"Xiao Wu, are you telling the truth?"

Ning Rongrong and Zhu Zhuqing couldn't help but turn green and feel nauseous at the thought of Tang San and the other three taking turns with a lewd old man.

Xiao Wu nodded, suppressing her nausea, and described what happened that day again.

Ning Rongrong said angrily:

"This is disgusting! I'm going to find Flander and make him fire Tang San and the others!"

Zhu Zhuqing pulled Ning Rongrong back and calmly said:

"Wait a minute, have you forgotten what happened between the Dean and the Master? The Master is Tang San's master, so the Dean will definitely side with them."

"What should we do then?"

Ning Rongrong couldn't help but shudder at the thought of being in a den of perverts.

Zhu Zhuqing pondered for a moment and said:

"Ask Bai Yu."

Just then, Bai Yu walked over, smiling, and said:

"I've already found out that the dean spent 50,000 gold soul coins to bail Tang San and the others out."

Ning Rongrong asked in confusion:

"Does the dean still have money? The food in the cafeteria has been getting worse and worse lately. I asked the chefs, and they said they didn't have any funds. I thought the college was out of money."

Zhu Zhuqing seemed to be deep in thought.

Bai Yu laughed:

"I bet the dean will soon send us to the Grand Arena for team battles so he can make some money to recoup his investment."

Xiao Wu and Ning Rongrong were immediately startled, like kittens whose tails had been stepped on.

"What?! We're supposed to team up with those four freaks for Soul Battle?! No way!"

Bai Yu laughed:

"Consider it a bit of training."

Zhu Zhuqing suddenly said to Bai Yu:

Are you going too?

Bai Yu nodded, and the three women breathed a sigh of relief.

Fortunately, it's still somewhat acceptable if Bai Yu is also there.

Ning Rongrong complained:

"I swear this is the last time I'll put up with this. If they do anything disgusting again, I'm dropping out!"

Bai Yu smiled slightly and remained silent.

Don't worry, Flander should be leading everyone on their way within three months. With Li Changkong's abilities, once he gets his hands on Shrek Academy, he'll probably be looking for a way to deal with Flander in less than three months. So, all things considered, at most two months, everyone will be leaving Soto City.

After Qin Ming appears at the Grand Soul Arena, he will naturally take everyone to Heaven Dou City. Lonely Yan and Ye Lingling from the Heaven Dou Royal Academy, Huo Wu, and the beautiful girls from Tianshui Academy are also in Heaven Dou City. *Ahem*, that's not the point. The point is that Heaven Dou City is the capital of the Heaven Dou Empire, incredibly prosperous. I, Bai Yu, love shopping the most! *Ahem*

That evening, after Flander returned, he immediately gathered everyone together and announced that in order to train them, they would go to the Great Soul Arena to participate in team battles the next day.

Xiao Wu, Ning Rongrong, and Zhu Zhuqing looked at Bai Yu in surprise.

Bai Yu was actually right!
