Douluo Jueshi: Who let him join Shrek!

Chapter 590: Make money? Confiscate the house!
"This kid is using his own name"

Jing Hongchen shook his head with amusement, but the trace of worry in the depths of his eyes disappeared.

There is one thing that can be done. At least, this kid shouldn't go looking for Jiang Ming to fight on his own.

But if Mingjiang participates in the competition, wouldn't that be a bit too much of a bully? It would kind of destroy the balance between the underground forces.
When three forces hold a competition to divide some interests, they will definitely use all means necessary in accordance with the rules.

But even if the other two forces, Xishui League and Pingfan League, have incredible abilities, where can they find another ninth-level soul engineer who is less than thirty years old?
It can be said that as long as the Aodu Chamber of Commerce is not stupid and allows Mingjiang to successfully represent the Aodu Chamber of Commerce in the competition, it is equivalent to reserving the championship in advance. No one can snatch it away!

"Well, those underground forces are not good people anyway, so let them cause trouble if they want."

After thinking for a while, Jing Hongchen decided not to care about it anymore.

There is no particularly strong interest connection between him and those underground forces. If Mingjiang wants to play in this competition, then let him play.

And here he is
After taking a final look at Mingjiang's location, Jing Hongchen's figure slowly disappeared from the spot.

He still has a big project to do. It will take time to complete a soul guide that can trap the Extreme Douluo.

Crown Prince Xu Tianran demanded that it be done before the end of this competition, in an effort to ensure that Jiang Ming died accidentally when he returned to Shrek Academy.

Then, put the blame on the Holy Spirit Church!
However, what Jing Hongchen didn't know was that after he left, Ming Jiang, who was standing at the entrance of Aodu Hotel not far away and was already wearing a mask, glanced over here lightly.

Not long after, a middle-aged man in a sophisticated black gown walked out from outside the Aodu Hotel.

Seeing Mingjiang standing at the door, he quickly stepped forward and said with a big smile on his face: "Is this the distinguished guest recommended by Lord Mingjiang? Nice to meet you, please follow me."

As he spoke, he made a gesture of invitation.

Actually, when the Aodu Chamber of Commerce wanted to invite Mingjiang to be a referee, they never thought that Mingjiang would agree.

Don’t be fooled by the fact that these underground forces seem very powerful. They have a huge influence in the dark side of Mingdu and even in the entire Sun and Moon Empire.

But who is standing behind Mingjiang?

There is no need to talk about Jing Hongchen of Mingdetang. Everyone with a little status in the whole Ming city knows that Jing Hongchen is going to marry his granddaughter to Mingjiang.

In addition to Jing Hongchen, there is also Kong Deming, a big shot in the Royal Worship Hall, who has actually supported Mingjiang.

Even Crown Prince Xu Tianran thinks highly of Mingjiang.

This kind of person, even if they are the underground forces in Mingdu, is an existence that is difficult for ordinary people to reach, and it is very difficult to establish a relationship with him.

But the Aodu Chamber of Commerce really didn't expect that although Mingjiang refused to attend the competition, he sent people to help the Aodu Chamber of Commerce participate in the competition!

This made the top leaders of the Aodu Chamber of Commerce very happy!

To put it simply, this person was recommended by Mingjiang, so his level in soul guides is definitely not weak!

After all, Mingjiang is the youngest ninth-level soul mentor in the history of the Sun-Moon Empire. How could the person he recommends be bad?
With this person joining, their Aodu Chamber of Commerce’s chances of winning the competition, if not 100%, are at least 90% certain!
And if we talk about it in a broader sense, what is Mingjiang's identity?
The people he recommended came to the Aodu Chamber of Commerce.
yours!

You take care!
Whether you look at it from a small perspective or a big perspective, this is a pie in the sky for the Aodu Chamber of Commerce!
Of course, the top executives of the Aodu Chamber of Commerce had also considered that this person might be an imposter.

After all, this is too abrupt.

But, even if they had doubts, they dared not neglect this person!

If it is fake, then it will be chopped into pieces and thrown to feed the dogs, and then any evil soul master will refine the soul.

But if they really neglected their duty and made Mingjiang unhappy, then the consequences would be something they could not bear!
Ming Jiang nodded, then followed the middle-aged man in black into the Aodu Hotel.

The Aodu Hotel is actually somewhat different from other hotels in Mingdu. No matter what, other hotels in Mingdu at least try to create a hotel feeling.

But the inside of the Odu Hotel gives people a rather dark and even uncomfortable feeling.

But this is not surprising. After all, the Aodu Chamber of Commerce controls evil forces such as the Killers' Guild and the Thieves' Guild, and they all do illegal work such as collecting protection fees, assassinations, and thefts.

When people who do these jobs gather in a hotel, the atmosphere of the hotel will obviously be very different.

After entering the hotel, the middle-aged man took Mingjiang to a soul guide elevator inside the hotel lobby and asked, "Excuse me, does Lord Mingjiang have any instructions?"

The middle-aged man's attitude was very respectful. As a manager in the underground forces, even though he didn't know the person in front of him and the other party just mentioned his name, he still did not show any disrespect.

People who are involved in gangs know better that one mistake can easily lead to losing one’s life!
Of course, we can't do nothing. At least we have to test whether this person was sent by Mingjiang.

Of course, the top management had already sent people to contact Lord Mingjiang.

"instruct?"

Ming Jiang blinked, hesitated for a moment and then said, "No instructions. He told me it's fun here, I can make money and win rare metals, so I came here."

Ming Jiang said with some disappointment: "I originally wanted to participate in the competition over there, but unfortunately I am over 20 years old, so there is no way."

Hearing this answer, the middle-aged man in black shirt frowned slightly.

This seemed to say something, but also seemed to say nothing.

However, after all, he was a person who could serve as a manager in the underground forces, so he still extracted some information from it.

First of all, if what this person said is true, it means that Lord Mingjiang probably does not want to have a deeper entanglement with their Aodu Chamber of Commerce, and just wants people to participate in this competition.

Secondly, the person in front of him said that he wanted to participate in another competition, but he was over the age limit. Obviously, it was the Continental Soul Master Elite Competition.

To participate in that competition, you must have strong strength!

After analyzing it, the middle-aged man in black shirt already had some guesses in his mind.

Of course, this is based on the premise that the person in front of him is really sent by Lord Mingjiang.

The middle-aged man nodded and said, "So that's how it is. Then, what's your name, sir?"

Ming Jiang said: "Just call me Ah Shuai."

A Shay?

The middle-aged man was stunned. This name is quite unique!

However, he could certainly tell that this was a random name and not a real name.

He didn't tell his real name and covered his face with a mask.
Either this person is a soul guide who is particularly concerned about his privacy, or... this person is known by many people and does not want to reveal his identity. Mingjiang looked at the middle-aged man and said softly: "I just heard from the guard that the competition has started for a while. In this case, take me there quickly."

The middle-aged man hurriedly took Mingjiang to a soul guide elevator inside the hotel lobby, then took out a soul guide communicator and said a few words before entering the elevator with Mingjiang.

"Oh, right."

In the elevator, Ah Shuai seemed to suddenly remember something. He looked at the middle-aged man and said, "I heard that you can place bets here, right? Can I place a bet on myself?"

The middle-aged man nodded and said, "Sure, how much do you want to bet?"

Ah Shuai thought for a moment and said softly, "Then, help me bet one hundred million soul coins."

When the middle-aged man heard the number Ah Shuai said, his face froze and his whole body became numb.

One hundred million?

Or Gold Soul Coin? !

"Ah, Mr. Ah Shuai, please don't joke with me. My little heart can't handle it."

The middle-aged man wiped the cold sweat from his forehead and smiled awkwardly.

Ah Shuai said seriously, "I'm not kidding. Although I don't have 100 million soul coins, Lord Mingjiang may not have enough, but Mingde Hall and the royal family are very confident in my strength. I'm helping them make some money."

Gulu.

Gulu.

The middle-aged man's back had been soaked with sweat without him noticing.

Wow, what Ah Shuai said, if you don’t know, you would think that Mingdetang and the royal family are going to directly confiscate the Aodu Chamber of Commerce!
"Mr. A Shuai, um, 100 million gold soul coins, we don't have that much money to compensate! Less, less"

The elevator door opened, and a noisy sound mixed with an air of decadence and decadence hit us in the face.

In contrast to the lobby of the Aodu Hotel, the hotel's underground world is magnificent and dazzling.

There is gold everywhere, even the mirrors, as if this underground world is made entirely of gold.

The conversation between A Shuai and the middle-aged man is still going on.

As if seeing the middle-aged man's dilemma, Ah Sui took a step back.

"Then, 10 million gold soul coins?"

Although there is a ten-fold difference between 10 million gold soul coins and 100 million gold soul coins, it is still an extremely large number!
The middle-aged man looked embarrassed: "How about a little less?"

Ten million gold soul coins, their gambling table doesn’t even have that much money!
Hearing this, A Shuai was unhappy.

"No, what's wrong with you? Even 10 million gold soul coins won't work. I'm still thinking about helping Master Mingjiang make some money to buy rare metals. Are you going to use my own 1 million gold soul coins?"

A Shuai's tone was very dissatisfied, but the middle-aged man seemed to have found a way out.

"Mr. Ah Shuai, one million gold soul coins are fine. As for helping Lord Mingjiang make some money to buy rare metals, if Lord Mingjiang needs it, after the competition is over, I will personally send a few tons of rare metals over! Do you think it's okay?"

This was a very nice thing to say, and Ah Shuai reluctantly agreed.

"Okay, then you can help me place a bet of one million gold soul coins on me to win. Where is the competition?"

A Shuai took out a dark gold card and handed it to the middle-aged man.

The middle-aged man took the card and said awkwardly, "Mr. Ah Shuai, there is no such betting method in the qualifying rounds. The qualifying rounds are all about betting on the exact number of people who will appear, or betting on a certain multiple, and the odds are different. If you bet on a specific number of people, you can multiply it tenfold."

Upon hearing this, Ah Shuai frowned.

"How can I make money like this? Well, I'll leave the card with you first. When the time comes to bet on my winning, you can bet everything on it. After the game is over, you can send the money and the rare metals to Lord Mingjiang."

Hearing this, the middle-aged man's mouth twitched and he didn't know what to say.

As the saying goes, nine out of ten people lose in gambling. Can you make money steadily by doing this? That's nonsense!
What's more, they have secret operations
However, the middle-aged man did not say much. He quickly called a maid over to place the bets, while he took Mingjiang to the competition area, and his attitude became more respectful.

The reason is simple. If he had doubted before whether this person was recommended by Lord Mingjiang, then Ah Shuai’s words just now completely put him at ease.

Send all the winnings to Lord Mingjiang. If you are not the person recommended by Lord Mingjiang, then you are just giving away money!
The two first passed through a magnificent circular hall and entered a large door in front of them.

Entering the door, they seemed to have arrived directly in another world.

The light here is not as strong as outside, it seems much softer, but the area is very large.

This is a circular dome hall, and the top of the hall seems to be outlined by countless golden lines in a neat and regular pattern.

The huge dome provides sufficient light for the entire hall. Rows of seats extend neatly downwards, surrounded by a circle of escalators that go up diagonally.

At the end of each soul-guiding escalator, there is a circular room suspended in the air. It is completely invisible to the naked eye as to how these rooms are suspended in mid-air.

There are a total of eighteen such suspended rooms and soul-guided escalators. They formed a faint circle.

In the middle of the hall, there is a circular platform with a diameter of 30 meters. Although it is not as wide as the competition stage of the All-Continent Youth High-level Soul Master Elite Competition, it is still quite amazing. Don't forget, this is the underground world.

At this time, there were dozens of metal tables placed on the competition stage, and the light of soul guides flashed from time to time.

There were also some metal tables placed around the round platform, with a total of more than 100. Some of the metal tables were already empty.

The circles of sapphire blue velvet chairs on the periphery were filled with people.

They were all very quiet, concentrating on watching the people busy at the metal tables in the center. Conservative estimates put the number of people watching at more than two thousand.

From their clothes it could be seen that each of them was either rich or noble.

The middle-aged man said respectfully: "Some soul guides here have already finished their creations. Today is the qualifying round, and you can pass the qualification review by making a third-level soul guide. Of course, it must be done within a certain period of time.

You see, there is an hourglass on the table of each soul guide. However, half of the time has passed, which means there is only one hour left. Do you still have time?"

Hearing this, Ah Shuai sneered somewhat arrogantly.

"If you can't even make a third-level soul guide in an hour, then what's the point of being a soul guide? Just go back and raise pigs."
