Monarch Night

Everyone was let into the hall by Hospitality.

Of course, at the entrance to the hall were two tables recording cash gifts and presents.

Those who paid a certain amount entered the hall for reception.

Those who didn’t meet the required amount were smilingly led to the side hall to rest. The difference in treatment was obvious!

Clearly.

Everything was done openly and transparently.

If you’re qualified, I’ll treat you better; if you’re not up to the level, sorry, you’ll go to the other side, hmm, sit at the kids’ table.

There’s no disrespect here; if there is, it’s only self-disrespect.

The honesty was all for one purpose, openly hinting: I want to make money! I want to make big money!

But this kind of clear pricing suits the merchants perfectly.

We love this kind of setup, the admiration for the wealthy; otherwise, why do we work so hard to earn money? For fairness? Should the one who offers ten thousand taels of silver and the one who gives one hundred copper coins sit at the same table?

That’s nonsense!

Many merchants who were chatting with representatives of other Escort Agencies hurriedly went to register and pay Silver.

Those who could enter the hall were all composed, stepping elegantly on the red carpet.

Meanwhile, those entering the side hall tread on bare ground.

Distinct difference in treatment.

It’s this evident.

"Brother Lu, this matter... what the Worldwide Escort Agency is doing isn’t quite righteous," said a representative from an Escort Agency, whispering in the ear of Lu Sihai, the Vice Chief of the Dadao Escort Agency, who had come to congratulate.

"There’s nothing wrong with that."

Lu Sihai, as tall and bulky as a black bear, with a friendly face, said, "They’ve made it clear. Let’s go quickly."

"Didn’t the old master say he would show the Worldwide Escort Agency some color?"

The other Escort Agency people were anxious. Why did the Dadao Escort Agency suddenly chicken out?

We were planning to cause trouble with you...

So the planned disruption won’t happen?

"The old master changed his mind." Lu Sihai touched his shiny bald head and walked ahead.

"Dadao Escort Agency from Donghu State here to congratulate... presenting gifts..."

Zhao Wushang smiled like a blooming flower: "Master Lu, please come in quickly, oh, you’re too kind."

"I’m the Vice Chief!"

Lu Sihai quickly corrected, thinking if the old master heard him bearing the title of Chief outside, he’d definitely get a severe scolding at home.

"You want to take charge before the old master dies?" — This was the old master’s usual rebuke.

Slowly, people arrived in full, filling the tables.

Just after everyone had entered, Feng Yun along with Feng Yi and Feng Er arrived at the Worldwide Escort Agency’s entrance.

Seeing the couplet, Feng Yun couldn’t help but praise, "This Escort Agency has talented people."

Feng Yi chimed in, "Should we go in and have some fun? Maybe drop some random gift as a congratulations."

Feng Yun was out for leisure, so he naturally didn’t mind.

Enthusiastically, he said, "Let’s go take a look. Let’s go."

He took the lead in entering.

The three rummaged through their Space Rings and found the lowest item was top grade Spirit Jade.

"Let’s do this then," Feng Yun didn’t care.

But Zhao Wushang, in charge of registration, was suddenly shocked.

"Two pieces of top grade Spirit Jade, wishing the Worldwide Escort Agency a prosperous opening!"

Damn, where did these spendthrifts come from?

They casually produced Spirit Jade... so impressive!

Quickly and respectfully invited them in, placing them at the head table.

No choice, too rich. Moreover, this top grade Spirit Jade is not something ordinary merchants could produce, it represents foundation and family!

Must treat them specially.

...

At the Worldwide Escort Agency’s back garden, the hired chefs had long started working.

The aroma spread, having wafted for miles since morning, and now it was even more fragrant.

"Welcome all esteemed patrons, fellow colleagues, and leaders from all sectors to visit, we at Worldwide Escort Agency..."

Zhao Wushang, as the Vice Chief, went up to speak, after saying a few words, "Now let’s welcome our Chief, Yin Xiu, Brother Yin, to speak."

Under the watchful eyes.

A burly man leisurely walked out from backstage.

As soon as he appeared, everyone simultaneously felt the momentum condense, his presence as majestic as a mountain instantly striking them.

His build was burly, his face... cough, quite heroic indeed!

At any rate, it couldn’t be said to be ugly, that would be too blunt.

Only to see Yin Xiu, the Chief of the Escort, stride up onto the high platform, glance calmly down, and then his eyes almost popped out.

Because suddenly he saw someone who shouldn’t be here!

At the first table.

Holy **!

Feng Yun!

How did this guy end up here?!
