Chapter 1 I'm the Big Boss
The Adventure Capital, Fernandi, a free city nestled among eight giant mazes.
In Fernandi, you can see East Asians and Western Europeans chatting and laughing, and you can also see dwarfs and orcs standing shoulder to shoulder. There are even sexy and enchanting fairy girls and pure and beautiful elf girls shopping together in the streets and alleys.
This is the paradise for adventurers, the birthplace of legends, and the most prosperous trading city on the East and West Continents!
Countless vendors gathered from all over the world and formed a huge industrial chain in Fernandi. This huge industrial chain not only attracted countless adventurers, but also supported thousands of ordinary people.
And Luo Wen, who traveled to this world, became one of the thousands of ordinary people.
That's it.
...
Fernandi has no city walls, but there are four official roads, which run through the entire city in the shape of a "well", and divides Fernandi into nine urban areas.
There is a commercial street on the corner of Dongcheng District. It has just been renamed "East Street". There are two taverns across the street in the middle of Dongda Street. Luo Wen works as a clerk in one of the taverns.
In this world, taverns are equivalent to fast food restaurants on the earth, specializing in selling cheap wines and cheap meals that ordinary adventurers like the most. Adventurers returning from the maze usually have dinners in their familiar taverns, sometimes sharing information with others, and sometimes bragging to relieve the pressure accumulated during the danger.
The tavern where Luo Wen works is called "Flame Girl". This is really a very vulgar store name. It is not at all high-end compared to the "Ice Goddess" opposite. However, adventurers like this vulgar but down-to-earth name, so the "Flame Girl" business has always been better than the "Ice Goddess".
Luo Wen traveled through this world after his unexpected death. He did not have much nostalgia for the original world. Instead, he liked the world that gave him a second life. He just worked in a tavern every day and listened to the stories that adventurers encountered in the maze, and he felt extremely satisfied.
If nothing unexpected happens, he will continue to live like this. When he saves enough money, he will open a tavern by himself, then find a gentle wife who is a family member. The couple will manage the tavern together, have another child, and spend their lives in harmony with each other.
But how do you say that?
Oh yes, ideals are full, but reality is skinny!
"But this is a bit too skinny, right?"
Luo Wen held his back against the tavern door, thinking sweating profusely.
On the fourth day of working in this tavern, he encountered a legendary incident where his boss ran away. Now he was blocked by several vicious orcs in the door, in a dilemma of being called "Daily Tiantian" and "Daily Earth".
"Bang! Bang! Bang!"
Fortunately, this door is reliable enough, otherwise it would have been knocked out by the orcs with brute force.
Luo Wen was a little panicked. He successfully applied for the job as a clerk in this tavern on the first day he traveled to this world. He didn't think it was strange at the time. Now he thought, wouldn't he be tricked?
But the tavern owner was innocent and had a gentle face, and his conversation was quite organized. He really didn't look like a sinister and cunning person.
"Sister Lisa, what's going on? What about the boss?"
He tried his best to hold back the door and looked anxiously at the female clerk in front of the counter.
The female clerk is named "Lisa". She looks in her twenties, with long curly flax hair, not a simple dress, with powder on her face and oil paint on her nails.
When Luo Wen first joined the company, he heard from his boss that she had worked in this tavern for three years and was the proprietor of the tavern.
At such a tense moment, Lisa was not panicked at all, and looked in the mirror very calmly and applied lip gloss.
When Luo Wen asked, she replied casually: "What else can happen? You'll run away if you owe debts."
"I owe debt?" Luo Wen looked surprised, "We Flame Girl's business is OK, right? How could we owe debt?"
After applying her lips to the greasy shiny, Lisa satisfies herald the small mirror and said to him: "The tavern is not a profitable industry. No matter how good the business is, how much money can you make? You can lose all your money in the city without sleeping for half a day."
"City never sleeps? The boss is going to gamble?" Rowen exclaimed immediately.
Although he has only worked here for three days, the name of the city that never sleeps is too loud. It is the largest gold-selling cave in Fernandi, and it is a dangerous place where people will never vomit bones after eating!
Lisa said with a look of course: "Is it strange? Our boss is an old gambler. Now that we have exhausted our luck, we will naturally lose all our money. With his temperament, he probably has borrowed a lot of foreign debts, and maybe even this tavern has been bet. Well, maybe it's not enough."
Luo Wen looked speechless: "What should we do?"
Lisa smiled mysteriously: "Let's do it."
"Bang!"
The door bolt suddenly cracked, and a huge force came from behind. Luo Wen couldn't bear it and took a few steps forward, then turned around slightly embarrassedly, just as he saw three long-haired orcs with a arrogant face rushing into the tavern.
"The debt collectors are so dedicated now that they are here just dawn."
Luo Wen pinched his wrist and looked at the three orcs carefully.
Orcs are sub-ethnic. The appearance of orcs varies greatly depending on their bloodline.
Among them, orcs whose bloodlines tend to be humans, except for their inherent characteristics such as ears and tails, basically look the same as humans.
But the orcs whose bloodline is biased towards wild beasts... look almost the same as the three orcs in front of them!
These were obviously three wild boars. They all had long and hard black hair, pig's head and ears, and their two fangs bared their lips, pressed tightly against both sides of the pig's nose, making them look particularly ferocious.
Luo Wen was not scared by their appearance. After all, he had seen many similar orcs in the past few days he worked in the tavern.
One of the largest wild boar men suddenly took a step forward and asked in a muffled voice: "Where is your boss? Ask him to come out to pay off his debt!"
Luo Wen couldn't help but retreat and smiled a little awkwardly: "I'm just a new clerk, how can I know where the boss is?"
The wild boar man turned his head and asked his brother behind him: "Ertizi, have you seen him when you came before?"
Another wild boar man stared at Luo Wen for a long time before touching his head and said, "It seems that he has never seen it much before."
Rowen immediately breathed a sigh of relief.
The wild boar man who should be the eldest brother turned around and asked Lisa in front of the counter: "You girl, do you know?"
Lisa narrowed her eyes slightly, raised an unusually gorgeous smile on the corner of her mouth, and suddenly said with a giggle: "Brother, isn't the boss you are talking about right in front of you?"
"In front of me?" The wild boar man looked around with a confused look on his face, and then suddenly said angrily, "You lied to me! There was no one in front of me!"
He became angry, his hair stood up, and a tiny yellow glow appeared on the tips of his hair, which was very terrifying.
But Lisa was not afraid at all. Instead, she covered her mouth and laughed, then raised her hand, stretched out her slender fingers with bright red nails, and pointed suddenly at the position where Rowan stood: "Where? Isn't that human?"
"Me?" Luo Wen pointed his backhand at his face, looking confused.
The Wild Boar Brother was also furious and said, "He is obviously just a small clerk, don't even think about bullying me!"
"No, no, no, you all were deceived by him!" Lisa shook her head, "He is not a clerk, he is the illegitimate son of the former boss! Three days ago, the former boss transferred the flame girl to him. Who else can he be if he is not the boss?"
As he said that, Lisa opened the drawer at the counter, pulled out a piece of fur paper tied into a roll, and then shook the roll paper in front of everyone and spread it flat: "Look, this is the contract. All the regulations, including store transfer, are clearly written, and there are also the signatures and seals of the two of them as evidence!"
"Contract?" Luo Wen looked carefully. Isn't that the entry contract he signed three days ago?
It's a cheating father!
"So, this store is his now. If the former boss trumps the store to you, you have to find him. He is the illegitimate son of the former boss. If the value of this store is not enough to repay the debt, then the principle of repaying the father's debt and the son... I guess you know more than me, an incompetent woman?"
Lisa smiled and threw the contract to the Boar Man.
The big brother of the wild boar made a contract easily. When he opened it, he immediately frowned.
Luo Wen also leaned over and glanced at it, but the words in this world were mixed with various languages. He only knew a few square characters, otherwise how could he easily sign such a contract?
He couldn't help asking, "Do you know these words?"
The Wild Boar man frowned and said, "Of course, I am a top student who graduated from Fast Arts College. How could I not even recognize these words?"
Rowen suddenly became silent: "Fast Literature College? Isn't that the highest institution of Fernandy? I actually lost to a pig in culture!"
"This contract is signed by both parties, and the magic marks are proof of it, and it does have the effect." The elder brother of the Wild Boar said again, "This is indeed a contract for store transfer, and there are also regulations for debt transfer here. If you can sign such a contract, it seems that you are indeed the illegitimate son of the old guy Luotu."
Luo Wen quickly shouted injustice: "No, brother, I'm really not!"
"It's useless to say it, but it's useless to say it more." The elder brother of the Wild Boar said with a rude look on his face, "It's natural for the father to repay the debts and sons to repay it! Luo Tu owes me 1.23 million yuan in the city of Never Sleep. The annual output value of this Flame Girl Tavern is around 200,000 yuan. I'll give you two choices now. One is to pay this tavern for a price of 500,000 yuan, and then you repay 730,000 yuan in three days. The other is to sign and sell it for our Never Sleep. The income of the tavern in these ten years is ours, and the annual income must be guaranteed to be above 200,000 yuan!"
Luo Wen said helplessly: "Can I not choose?"
The Wild Boar Brother said decisively: "No!"
Lisa on the other side also smiled and said, "I said Luo Wen, you might as well choose the second one? Anyway, you don't pay for it. Isn't it just working for ten years? Ten years will be quick."
Luo Wen couldn't help but glared at her fiercely. He now knew completely that Lisa must have taken over the benefits of the boss Luo Tu, so she joined forces to harm him.
"I've called you so many sisters..."
He turned around, muttered softly, suddenly raised his head and looked at the Boar Brother: "Give me the contract."
Before the Wild Boar could react, he pulled the fur paper contract into his hand: "I won't choose either option. Aren't you just here to ask for debt? I'll give it back to you soon."
Then Lisa sneered and said, "You? What are you paying off your debts? Are you paying for the meat?"
