Chapter 40 Shady
"Old Jack, you made a lot of money today, why do you have a bitter face? This is not like you!" In the castle, Zhuo Ao, who had returned from training, looked at the depressed old Jack, and couldn't help but patted him on the shoulder. Today's two games, although the odds are not big, but they can't stand the lot of gold coins they invested in. The gold coins they harvested in one day alone are comparable to the sum of the past four months. With Old Jack's character, he should be happy at this moment It's right to drink freely, is it the legend that extreme joy begets sorrow.

"Gold coins are not everything." Old Jack snorted, turned his head away, and continued to drink his dull wine.

"What did I hear?" As if discovering a new world, Zhuo Ao looked at Old Jack with a look of surprise: "The most stingy iron cock in Raisen City, tell me that gold coins are not everything?"

Looking back at Gloria, he said, "Are you sure that old Jack doesn't have any long-lost twin brothers?"

"I'm sure of this." Gloria naturally understood why old Jack was like this, and just nodded lightly upon hearing this.

"The sun is coming out from the west." Shaking his head, Zhuo Ao felt that both father and daughter had problems today.

"Master." A slave team leader walked in, bowed to Zhuo Ao, and said, "There is a gentleman outside who calls himself Richard of the Raisen Colosseum and wants to see you."

"Oh?" Zhuo Ao heard the words, exchanged glances with Gloria, nodded and said, "Please come in."

"It's so late, what could it be?" Gloria walked to Zhuo Ao's side, frowned slightly.

"What could be the matter?" Old Jack couldn't help but said: "Zhuo Ao is the popular candidate for this King of Fighting Contest, it must be Richard who wants to take this opportunity to expand Zhuo Ao's influence."

"I'm afraid it's not that simple." Gloria said softly.

"Well, I agree. I have a hunch that it will definitely not be a good thing for Richard to come to me at this time." Zhuo Ao nodded, still agreeing with Gloria's idea. As for Old Jack, apart from gold coins, , he rarely has anything else on his mind.

"Dear Zhuo Ao, your performance today is truly astonishing!" Richard walked in with a smile, looked at Zhuo Ao and said with a smile.

"Mr. Richard, you didn't come here late at night just to express your surprise?" Zhuo Ao stretched out his hand to signal him to sit down.

"Well, there are indeed some things that I need to discuss with you." Richard said hesitantly.

"Jianna, go to Cook Yali to see when the dinner will be ready, Keya, go and arrange the work of the slaves tomorrow." Zhuo Ao leaned gently on the back of the chair and said indifferently.

"In this case, my father and I also have some things to deal with." Gloria stood up very sensiblely, and pulled away the reluctant old Jack.

"Zhuo Ao, I have to sigh, you have found a very good butler, not only beautiful and charming, but also very sensible." Looking at the direction where Gloria and his daughter left, Richard looked at Zhuo Ao with a smile.

"I think so too." Zhuo Ao nodded, looking at Richard, quietly waiting for the next sentence.

"Zhuo Ao, about the Fighting King Competition... do you... have any opinions?" Richard looked at Zhuo Ao in embarrassment.

"I think, I will be the fighting king this year." Zhuo Ao said with a confident look in his eyes.

"Well, I'm very glad that you can have such confidence." Richard nodded, suddenly looked serious, and looked at Zhuo Ao: "If... I mean if, I let you give up the status of fighting king because What would you do if you intentionally lost to Kuroo when they fought against each other?"

Zhuo Ao felt suffocated when he heard this, and raised his head, his gaze gradually became indifferent.

"Of course, we at the Raisen Colosseum will give you some compensation, for example... the bonus that the King of Fighters can get, we will also give you twice as much!" Richard said quickly.

"20 gold coins, if you add the Dou Wang recognized by you, it will be 30 gold coins!" The corner of Zhuo Ao's mouth curled into a sarcastic smile: "What about the territory and... the title of the noble?"

Richard shook his head and said: "Zhuo Ao, you have to understand the preciousness of a title of nobility, even if it is just a baron, it is also a symbol of nobility, and a piece of territory, no matter how small it is, is not easy to get, Leysen Fighting Beast It has been a long time since the market was able to take out such a territory, and it is impossible to take out another one."

"Since you know the value of these two items, but you want to ask me to quit with the condition of giving an extra [-] gold coins, Mr. Richard, I don't think there is any humor in this joke." Zhuo Ao said coldly, these items are still there Secondly, the most important thing is that this matter is related to [-] summoning points and a chance to experience a secret realm, and he cannot back down.

"Listen, Zhuo Ao, I know, this matter is difficult for you to accept, but this is the final decision of the Colosseum, you must obey, otherwise..." Richard looked at Zhuo Ao and said.

"Otherwise?" Zhuo Ao looked at Richard, his eyes flashed coldly: "What will happen?"

"Even if you win the Fighting King Competition, not only will you not be able to get anything, but you will lose everything you have now, including that beautiful butler, do you understand?" Richard said in the end, his voice became indifferent, Seeing Jaina and Keya who came back, she said calmly: "Think about it, although you lost the chance to be promoted to noble, at least you still have 20 gold coins to get, and there are so many lovely girls by your side, And in the future, there may not be no chance, so I will take my leave first."

After getting up, Richard left directly, and Zhuo Ao sat in his seat with a gloomy expression.

"How is it? What did Richard tell you? Did he discuss opening a gamble with you? Or let you invest in the Leysin Colosseum?" Seeing Richard leave, Old Jack couldn't wait to rush to Zhuo Ao's side, With an excited smile on his face: "After you get the King of Fighting, you will be a nobleman. This guy Richard actually came to curry favor with you in advance."

"Father, shut up!" Gloria saw that Zhuo Ao's face was not right, she quickly gave old Jack a hand, looked at Zhuo Ao with concern, and said, "What happened? You don't seem to be happy!"

"He asked me to give up the title of Fighting King, and offered me a price of 20 gold coins." Zhuo Ao leaned on the chair, closed his eyes, and said slowly.

"20 gold coins, that's not bad." Old Jack couldn't help but look cold when he heard the gold coins, then thought of something, looked at Zhuo Ao and said, "What about the territory? And the title of Baron!"

"No." Zhuo Ao shook his head with a gloomy expression.

"No!?" Old Jack's reaction was bigger than Zhuo Ao's: "How can this be, shady, this is shady, you didn't promise him!"

"Father!" Gloria frowned and stopped Old Jack, turned her head, looked at Zhuo Ao and said, "If you don't want to say it, don't force it."

"There is nothing to say." Zhuo Ao regained his composure, and said indifferently: "To them, my attitude is not important, I accept it, of course everyone is happy, but if I refuse, in Richard's words, even In the end, if I win the Douwang, not only will I not get anything, but I will lose everything I have now."

Old Jack and Gloria fell silent at the same time when they heard the words. They were different from Zhuo Ao. They were born and bred in this world and were deeply influenced by this world. I also know how amazing the power behind it is to be able to own such an industry in the capital of a province like Leisen City.

The entire hall fell into a brief silence, and even the food did not arouse everyone's appetite.

"Gloria." After a long time, Zhuo Ao looked up at Gloria and said.

"Yes." Gloria subconsciously stood up.

"Go and bring Jaina and Keya's contract, and two bags of gold coins." Zhuo Ao said lightly.

"Okay." As if she had a premonition, Gloria nodded and left. After a while, she took two contracts and two money bags.

"This is your contract of sale." Zhuo Ao tore the two contracts into pieces in front of the two of them, looked at the red eyes of the two little girls, stood up and handed the two purses to their hands respectively: "One Although a hundred gold coins is not much, it is enough for you to spend the rest of your life happily."

"Master..." Jaina looked up, looking at Zhuo Ao with teary eyes.

"Don't be like this, separation and separation are common things in life. I didn't intend to let two beautiful girls like you serve me for the rest of my life. Don't cry. If you cry again, it won't be beautiful." Zhuo Ao smiled and patted the two of them. shoulder, said softly.

Old Jack suddenly raised his head, glanced at Gloria, and said with some difficulty: "Actually, you don't have to be like this. Listen, I know, young people are impulsive, but you should calm down. The world is like this. It’s not bad to be able to get 20 gold coins, anyway, you didn’t care about it at the beginning, didn’t you, we can still live the same life as before, without worrying about food and clothing...”

"Okay!" Zhuo Ao stood up and patted Old Jack on the shoulder: "That's how the world is said, it's because the world in your eyes is like this, but I'm different, I'm a slave, how the world depends on I, not other people's point of view, I will not let go of this opportunity, no matter what, I will only take it with my own hands, but don't worry, I will not involve you, so, old Jack, this year, Thank you for your care, but I think our fate is over!"

"Don't be like this, Zhuo Ao..." Old Jack opened his mouth, wanting to continue persuading him.

"Remember, when doing business in the future, you must know how to share profits. It's okay to earn less. What you earn less is only a part of this person's gold coins, but you will get the opportunity to do business with more people. You are actually very smart, but many Things cannot be solved by being smart. You are always complaining about those idiots who are not as smart as you but succeed. It's not far away." Zhuo Ao put his arms around Old Jack's shoulders and said softly.

"Zhuo Ao..." Old Jack felt his throat ache.

"That's it, I don't need the gold coins of the castle, so I will leave them to you, but I think you should leave with the gold coins as soon as possible."

"Why do you want to do this? Is it worth it to lose your life for something that is impossible to obtain?" Old Jack almost roared out these words.

"Whether it's worth it or not, only I have the final say." Zhuo Ao took out his Dragon Mark Spear, wiped it seriously, and finally raised his head and said: "And I don't think that in this Laysen Province, anyone can really take me away." s life!"

"That's enough, father, don't try to hinder a man's determination!" Gloria stood up, stopped Old Jack, and bowed slightly to Zhuo Ao: "Thank you for your care during this time."

"Be careful yourself, beauty is your advantage, but sometimes, it will bring you disaster." Zhuo Ao nodded, looked at Gloria's beautiful face, and said with emotion.

"Yes, you also have a good rest."
