Sir! Don't close the net!

Alma felt her blood pressure soaring.

"I understand!"

Alma stormed out, and with a flourish of her pen, took 200,000 gold coins directly from the Fire Elf's finance department. She had the coins loaded onto a brand-new carriage that had just been forged at the Fire Elf Steel Mill, and then returned to the Sheep Village Logistics Building with the money and the carriage.

Damn it! I refuse to believe this guy would actually do something so stupid!

Alma gritted her teeth and looked at the black goat at the door.

The young cub waved to the crowd.

"Tell the minister that the money and vehicles have arrived; we can go to the city center and distribute the money!"

After saying that, Alma sat down in the carriage, crossed her legs, and sulked. She didn't know what she was angry about; maybe it was that she was actually going to play along with Li Yili's nonsense, or maybe it was Joey's pitying look.

Soon, Li Yili swaggered over to the carriage, but instead of getting in immediately, she put her hands behind her back and circled the carriage once, clicking her tongue twice, "It's practically the Rolls-Royce of carriages. The service of selling a car and giving away a model is also very thoughtful."

Although she didn't understand the meaning of Rolls-Royce and car model, Alma's intuition told her that these weren't good adjectives.

“Minister, if you’re going to throw money around in the city center, you’d better hurry, it’s almost time for the worst traffic jams. If you don’t actually have this idea at all…” Alma paused and sneered, “Two hundred thousand gold coins is a considerable sum for Sheep Village, I suggest you hide it away quickly.”

“Miss Alma, I like you more and more. I really look forward to the day when you can’t wear a dress in front of me.”

Li Yili curled her lips into a smile, boarded the carriage, and under Alma's disdainful gaze, raised her arm to hook Alma's shoulder, then waved her left hand forward.

"Drive to the city center, it's time for the grand entrance."

Chapter Twelve: The Gaze from the Chaotic Dimension

At a busy intersection, a conspicuous carriage rose up like a bull charging into a flock of sheep, its size far exceeding its size, its two magnificent warhorses, and its metallic shell shimmering with strange and dazzling colors under the ever-present starlight.

It was more like a war chariot than a horse-drawn carriage, its imposing presence aimed at conquering the land. The Instas people on the road made way for it, continuing in their original direction, but their eyes followed the chariot. The wooden carriages avoided it, praying in their hearts that the chariot would leave quickly.

But God did not respond to their prayers. The chariot did not turn around in the middle of the intersection. The divine horse neighed and raised its upper body, its hooves landing on the ground. The horses of the other carriages were so frightened that they stopped in place and pounded their hooves uneasily. The coachmen who instinctively wanted to curse could only calm their own horses first.

Passersby stopped and looked around curiously.

At this moment, the tank became the center of their world, and how they would spend the rest of the day would be determined by the tank's owner.

“Instass has people specifically tasked with maintaining order,” Alma sneered, pushing away Li Yili’s hand that was on her arm. “Those are Instass’s best…”

"Alright, that's enough—"

Upon hearing the word "most outstanding," Li Yili immediately thought of McCarthy, one of the most outstanding salespeople. Although this was true, Li Yili still tried to avoid the topic whenever possible.

"The order will cease to exist, and I will stand above all else."

Under Alma's bewildered gaze, Li Yili grabbed the hand-cranked money-spraying gun from her arm, stuffed a wad of gold bills into it, stood up, pushed her arm through the skylight above her head, pressed her elbow against the edge of the window, and with a powerful push, she pushed through the skylight. She lifted her right leg, placed her right foot on the edge of the skylight, and stood up straight under the gaze of the Instas residents.

"Everyone—though I don't know how to say good afternoon, the weather is really nice today—"

Li Yili spread her arms wide and laughed heartily.

Alma's lips twitched violently as she stood up. The moment her head poked out of the skylight, she felt the blinding gaze of the Instas residents and immediately blushed as she shrank back, forcefully tugging at Li Yili's trouser leg with her right hand.

"Hey—what are you trying to do! Can't you stop acting crazy during rush hour?! Do you want the whole Instas to know you're mentally unstable?! Damn it, don't drag me into this!"

"Miss Alma, why would the public judge a behavior as bizarre, or even gang up to ridicule it?"

"what?"

"To please yourself, you can make your bizarre behavior seem incredible and unique in the eyes of the public. All you need to do is do one thing."

Li Yili smiled slightly, gripped the joystick with her right hand, and slowly began to turn it.

"Benefit creators".

"Huh? Wait a minute! You need to do this within this time period—"

Before Alma could finish speaking, glittering gold banknotes rained down from the wooden money-spraying gun.

"Today is a memorable day, let's all have some fun together!"

As she spoke, Li Yili forcefully swung the money-sprinkling gun in her hand, and more gold coins fell down. Under Alma's incredulous gaze, Li Yili bent down and had the coachman control the carriage to move forward slowly. Then she spread her arms and shouted.

"These all belong to you! Take them all!"

"Oh oh oh oh—"

"Mine! This is mine!"

"Don't steal it! Don't steal it!"

Alma stared blankly at Li Yili above her head, bathed in a colorful halo. Just as Li Yili had said, all order had vanished at this moment. Above the chaos, only Li Yili seemed like a normal person. But how could the person who caused this chaos and was now enjoying it be a normal person?

"Click-clack—"

The sound of a blank firing from the money-throwing gun in Li Yili's hand brought Alma back to her senses.

Li Yili has run out of ammunition to destroy order; now is the time to end this farce.

Instinctively, Alma reached out to close the box containing the money.

“Miss Alma…your loyalty…”

The voice from above made Alma freeze. She slowly raised her head and looked over, her dark red eyes reflecting the eyes of Li Yili, who had been crouching down and watching her through the skylight.

"That's worth investigating."

Alma swallowed hard, a feeling of utter absurdity washing over her.

She met the eyes of a god in a chaotic dimension. She would either be mercilessly dragged into that chaotic dimension, or muster the courage to face such chaos, or abandon thought, follow her will, and maintain her pathetic sanity.

The cheers and roars of the Instas residents wore down her courage. By the time Alma realized what was happening, she had already handed a bundle of gold coins to Li Yili, who, now armed with ammunition, no longer stared at her.

Alma subconsciously breathed a sigh of relief, but immediately felt ashamed of her cowardly compromise. She wanted to correct herself immediately, but was frightened by the revelry of the Instas residents and began to doubt whether there was something wrong with her. In the end, she gave up thinking and silently prayed that this absurd thing would pass quickly.

Standing atop the slowly moving carriage, Li Yili narrowed her eyes slightly. Not far away were several people of different builds, but all with faces that looked unapproachable and upright. Li Yili could tell at a glance that people with such faces must be the kind of people who were not afraid of authority and whose word was law.

But a face is just a face. The eyes that gave that face its soul gradually became lost in the face of the falling gold coins. After hesitation and struggle, the group turned and left. But a short while later, they ran back and joined the fight for the gold coins. Only now, they no longer had that upright and honest face.

Li Yili smiled, a very relaxed smile.

Two hundred thousand gold notes were scattered just as the carriage drove out of the street. Li Yili whistled, leaned on the edge of the sunroof, and sat back down gracefully. Behind the carriage, pairs of hands reached up to the sky, trying to catch the gold notes that Li Yili had flung out.

The chaos is not over yet.

As she left the chaotic world, Alma gradually calmed down, and her empty mind began to process things. She subconsciously started to analyze Li Yili's behavior, but the more she thought about it, the more her head ached. Just as she was about to give up, she remembered what Al had said.

Don't try to understand any of Li Yili's actions; just believe that they must be right.

I always feel that if I give up thinking, I've already lost.

Alma took a deep breath, smiled gently, and asked Li Yili, who was sitting next to her looking out the window, "Minister, could you... could you tell me your purpose in playing with these 200,000 gold coins like this?"

Li Yili raised one finger.

Alma's lips twitched violently; she really didn't want to understand Li Yili in this matter.

“Okay, if you tell me your purpose, Minister, I will reduce the size of my skirt by another centimeter.”

Alma felt very sad. As someone who was very virtuous, she "voluntarily" reduced the size of her skirt by four centimeters on her first day with a new boss.

"To show off."

Alma's eyes went blank for a moment, then she tilted her head back and chuckled foolishly.

Li Yili withdrew her gaze, crossed her legs, and interlaced her fingers on her knees.

Love, dreams, and even the wind can be borrowed from others, but desire is something that arises from the heart and belongs to oneself. Once it erupts, it cannot be stopped.

It's the same no matter where you are.

Chapter Thirteen: Fire Elf: You think you can bankrupt me?

The crisp sound of a bell coming from the front of the car woke Alma.

Alma looked around blankly. They had returned to the foot of the Sheep Village Logistics Building. Many of the executives of the black goat cubs were standing with their hands behind their backs, their expectant and admiring eyes as if they had just returned from a victorious battle.

But in reality, they only created a huge riot.

"What exactly do you want...?"

Alma clutched her forehead and wailed. She really wanted to give up thinking altogether, just like Al had suggested, but she was extremely uneasy. She didn't know where Al and the others got their sense of security from, and she was on the verge of a breakdown.

"Are you even going to continue with Yangcun Logistics?! On the first day, instead of meeting with those wealthy people or staying in the building to work on the plans, you went to the city center and threw money around, causing traffic to freeze?!"

Because Alma didn't lower her voice at all, the Cloud Clan executives standing at the door all heard her. Just as she had hoped, the Cloud Clan executives not only didn't show any disbelief, but they even nodded in approval, as if all the powerful figures in Instas would come to the Sheep Village Logistics Building tomorrow to beg to see Li Yili.

Li Yili tugged at her collar and, surrounded by Yunzhong executives, swaggered into the Sheep Village building, leaving Alma alone in the carriage, utterly bewildered.

"I refuse to believe it—"

Alma gritted her teeth, grabbed her handbag, and followed after him aggressively, raising her voice.

"Minister, do you have any other requests? Fire Elf is the largest steel mill in Instas. Two hundred thousand gold coins are nothing to Fire Elf. The Fire Elf's finance department is still working. Don't waste your time!"

I'm not being stubborn; I'm just following orders from Minister Josephine and Minister Joy.

Alma sneered.

"You must have some grand plan in the future, right!"

Li Yili paused, following behind Li Yili

The CEO of Yunzhong, who was very sensible, made way for them to form two lines.

Alma's heart skipped a beat, and she remembered Li Yili's expression as she crouched on the roof of the carriage, watching her through the sunroof. Suddenly, her scalp tingled.

"Are you sure?" Li Yili tilted her chin and turned her head. "I was planning to take it step by step, slowly. I have a big appetite..."

Li Yili narrowed her eyes slightly.

"Big ones will scare people."

Alma was stunned, her pupils contracting sharply.

This guy knows that the Flame Elf wants to shift the blame for the unfinished project onto the Black Goat's cub, so he's trying to use this ridiculous method to prevent the Flame Elf from shifting all the blame onto the Black Goat's cub!

A bead of cold sweat trickled down Alma's forehead.

For the old Japanese government, money was just a number. The executives didn't care how much the number decreased. When the project to build the temple went bankrupt, the executives would definitely hold the departments that participated in the project accountable. The extent of their responsibility depended entirely on the materials used in the project.

The Fire Elf has been investing all sorts of precious resources, while the Black Goat's cub has only consumed a string of numbers.

If both parties are responsible for the bankruptcy of the temple construction project, the fire elf will inevitably bear all the blame, while the black goat's cub, which recently completed a perfect séance, will at most receive a verbal reprimand, or even...

It's possible that the cadres might think that the progress of the Flame Elf, which has been slowing down the Black Goat's cubs, is because the project is still incomplete!
