Mystery: The New Dark Emperor Arrives

Chapter 264 Trading Day

For a while, Hobert thought through a lot of problems, but he didn't intend to tell Byron the information.

It is not a good thing for a wild Extraordinary with an official background to know too much information about mutual sabotage between countries.

"Fortunately, I brought some extra money." Byron counted out another 600 pounds and handed them to Hobert.

After the intelligence exchange was over, the two drank the tea in front of them each, shook hands, and left.

The gold pounds that Hobert was carrying now bulged his briefcase.

The information transaction just now, together with the transaction of the Extraordinary characteristics of "Madman" and "Werewolf", gave Hobert a total of 2400 pounds.

There is also the bounty received from Thomas and the income from selling the sealed item, a total of 3500 pounds.

Adding the two together, this is already a huge sum of money.

Hobert went to the bank again and took out the 7000 or so in cash deposited, as well as the 510 pounds that were used to resell the "Hurricane Axe" before, and the nearly 100 pounds of pocket money that Hobert carried with him.

When he put all the gold pounds on the desk in his bedroom, Hobert couldn't help swallowing. The huge sum of more than 3000 pounds in front of him was equivalent to about 4000 million in the AD era.

This is indeed a huge sum of money that Hobert has never seen before. He admired it for a few minutes before finally looking away, using the way of sacrificing himself to himself, to put the 11000 pounds of cash and the "judge"'s extraordinary Features, put it in the "land of disorder".

For the remaining 2500 pounds, Hobert took out 300 pounds and put them in his wallet, and packed the remaining 2200 pounds in a paper bag and put them in his briefcase.

When he came to the first floor, Hobert first wrote a letter, informing Klein to come to him to claim the bounty before five o'clock this afternoon, or after eight o'clock tomorrow.

Then he simply took a cab and took the letter to the Cragg Club, where it would be delivered in an hour or so.

At noon, Hobert treated guests, and went out to have a delicious barbecue with Fors. In the afternoon, he went to work in the office, and Fors continued to go back to "conceive new books".

As soon as she arrived at the office, Jessica sent a letter from Mr. Dix, saying that the two water pumps have been completed and can be sent to trade at any time.

Hobert sighed, today is really a trading day, the amount of transactions he has completed in one day has reached thousands of pounds!

Then he locked the door of the office and prayed to himself: "...the great 'creator', please inform Appleton, let him pick up the goods from Ruiyi Machinery Firm, store them in a warehouse, and sacrifice them tomorrow morning."

Hobert had already greeted Dicks before, and Ruiyi Machinery Firm would not disclose any information about Hobert, so there was no need to worry about Upton getting specific information about Hobert during the transaction.

Entering the "Nation of Disorder", Hobert couldn't help admiring the gold pound on the stone platform for a few seconds, and then put himself into the mosaic prayer picture and threw it into Upton's stars.

Then Hobert informed Elliott to prepare for the sacrifice tomorrow morning.

When he was about to leave the "Nation of Disorder", Hobert saw the star representing Rafter light up again. This baron really persevered and even prayed to the "Founder" again.

Hobart ignored his prayers and left the "land of disorder".

Hobert, who returned to the real world, just got his mind back from the pile of gold pounds and put it on work when Klein came.

Hobert reckoned that Mr. Ke should have been waiting at the Kragg Club, and rushed over immediately after receiving the news.

Jessica poured a cup of black tea for the guest, and then closed the office door under Hobert's eyes.

Hobert took out the paper bag of the briefcase and said, "You can share 700 pounds as the reward for this mission.

"The sealed item sold for 2500 pounds, but because I used my channel, I charged 100 pounds as an intermediary fee, and you can get 1200 pounds.

"In addition to the 300 pounds of Extraordinary characteristics of 'Rose Bishop' that we talked about before, you can get a total of 2200 pounds."

After speaking, Hobert pushed the paper bag to Klein.

After hearing this number, Klein, who had already made a rough guess, was still a little surprised.

He thought to himself: No wonder in my divination, my hope is in Backlund. Now it seems that "Hope City" really has many ways to make money quickly.

After counting the money, Klein took out 200 pounds and pushed it in Hobert's direction: "I didn't play a role in last night's battle. Even if I only took 300 pounds, it would be very unfair."

Hobert smiled, and pushed the money back: "Without your fortune-telling, I wouldn't have made this money at all. The 300 pounds should be paid to you for the fortune-telling."

Unlike the conflict with the members of the "judgment" the night before, in Kelly's commission, she and Jessica did not play much role in the battle.

But in yesterday's entrustment, Klein found the position of the target, which is a very important role, and his contribution is worth 300 pounds.

Of course, Hobert, who has already become Sequence 6, can monopolize the Extraordinary characteristics of "Bishop Rose", and Klein doesn't dare to have any objections, but that would be boring, and it will be difficult to cooperate in the future.

It's better to be more generous and give Klein a divination fee that makes Klein soft. When Klein becomes a "High Sequence", today's generosity will become a favor.

After the bounty was divided, Hobert said again: "Your sister and brother will come to Backlund this week to relax, and I plan to take them to the Roselle Memorial Exhibition on Sunday."

Klein stared.

"It's not what you imagined." Hobert smiled and said, "You're just a Sequence 8, and you won't let me blackmail you with your family."

He said: "I went to Tingen City to help Elizabeth's father, who is your sister's good friend Elizabeth.

"Later, we kept exchanging letters. I learned about your family's recent situation, so I asked them to come to Backlund with Elizabeth.

"If you want to see them, you can go to the showroom on a Sunday morning."

"Forget it." Klein took a deep breath: "Forget it."

Hobert spread his hands: "The choice is yours."

After sending Klein away, Hobert took care of a few more urgent tasks before he had time to replay last night's battle.

Generally speaking, Hobert was quite satisfied with his performance last night, and he also had his own ideas and tactics for the battle between Sequence 6.

Then he began to think about how to play the "corrupted baron". Up to now, he has not had a good idea.

The description of the "Corrupted Baron" on the "Dark Emperor" card is: People around the "Corrupted Baron" will always become greedy and dark, and the "Baron" uses their greed and darkness to firmly control them. inside.At the same time, the "barons" will manage their own territories or industries with care.

Through this description, Hobert got the focus of the role: constantly corrupting the hearts of the people around him; managing the territory or industry with heart.

Hobert believes that the title of "Baron" in "Baron of Corruption" should only have existed in the Fourth Epoch. This is to remind Extraordinary people that they will have their own territory when they reach Sequence 6 of "Dark Emperor".

This is crucial for the digestion of potions and future promotions.

Of course, according to the description, it doesn't have to be a territory, and it can also be owning your own industry, but there must be a place where you can say what you say.

Hobert sighed, whether it was corrupting the hearts of those around him, or owning a territory or property, it was very difficult to do it in Backlund.

It's not that he doesn't want to do this, but that the practice of "corroding the mind" is too conspicuous in this metropolis, and it can easily cause him a lot of trouble.

It seems that it's time to leave Backlund and go to the Southern Continent where there are followers of the "Founder" to develop, Hobart said with emotion in his heart.
