The auction of the Divine Thunder Tower finally came to an end, and in the amazed and envious eyes of everyone, Fryan directly took the dagger in Ferres's hand and walked away, and what happened today was destined to be regarded by everyone as one of the interesting conversations in life.

At this time, the master of the mandala walked up to Ferres and said with a smile, "Mr. Ferres, I would like to ask the maker of your dagger, Mr. Evil, is he still in your mansion? ”

Ferres hurriedly bowed respectfully and said, "Master Mandala, please forgive me for not being able to agree to you immediately, you also know the rules in our building, the identity of the elemental master is absolutely confidential, if the other party agrees, of course there is no problem, but if the other party does not agree, I can't take you to meet him." ”

Master Mandala smiled gently, "I know this, it's okay, you can help me pass on a message, well, just say that it is Mr. Fierce's old man who asked to see him." ”

"Mr. Murder?" Ferres was stunned, suddenly remembering the scene that his assistant had reported to him in the office before, and his heart couldn't help but tighten, and he hurriedly asked cautiously, "Master Mandala, may I ask who this fierce gentleman is?"

Master Mandala glanced at Ferres and said softly, "This is a secret that every generation of landlords of your Divine Thunder Building knows, it is estimated that when you become the lord of the building, Grand Administrator Hanbok will tell you, don't ask for it yet, just help me pass the word." ”

Hearing this, Ferres's nervousness became even more serious, and after nodding in agreement, he hurried back to his office.

It wasn't until Ferres walked away that the pony-tailed girl made a mischievous grimace and said with a teasing voice, "Teacher, you put Fryan together, who are these fierce and evil men? Why do you want to help them? I remember that you have this stack of equipment in your collection room, and it should be forged in the same way as that dagger, right? So you don't need to ask for a price, but why do you force Fryan to buy this dagger at a high price?"

Master Mandala touched his beard, showed an unfathomable smile and said, "Little girl, I know that I can't hide it from you, this fierce gentleman has a great favor to me, and Mr. Evil, I guess he is either his heir or a close relation, so I just do him a small favor by the way." ”

The pony-tailed girl nodded suddenly, spit out her small tongue, and said with a coquettish smile, "So that's the case, but this guy Fryne is miserable, 20 million gold coins, how much elemental equipment does he have to build to earn it back, haha." ”

Master Mandala shook his head with a smile, there was some embarrassment in his eyes, if he had been younger, he would have done the same thing as Fryan.

On the path of the Elemental Craftsman, it is the greatest desire in everyone's heart to get a breakthrough, but most of the Elemental Craftsmen don't know that what they think of as the peak is actually just a small piece of scenery on the whole road, and only those who have seen the higher scenery know how magnificent and difficult the road is!

After returning to his office, Ferres immediately called his assistant and said in a hurry, "Where is the young man you told me about this morning, the young man who said that he was the apprentice of Mr. Murder?"

The black-clothed assistant knew that the matter was serious when he saw the boss's expression, and hurriedly replied respectfully, "My lord, you asked the front desk to meet his requirements in a limited way before, and I didn't pay attention to this person anymore after I ordered it, do you need to ask me now?"

Ferres said with a violent expression, "Nonsense, hurry up and ask." ”

The black-clothed assistant hurriedly nodded in agreement, but when he was about to walk out the door, he was stopped by Ferres again.

"Wait a minute, you stabilize the young man first, and then hurry to the chief manager, and say that I have something urgent to report to him, and ask him to come to the building. ”

"Yes, my lord, I'll go!"

It wasn't until the assistant left that Ferres lay on the chair as if he was paralyzed, covering his forehead, and muttered tiredly, "I don't know if this incident is a blessing or a curse, what is the origin of this fierce gentleman? How did he become the secret of the Divine Thunder Tower?

Lei Xiu was excited to lead a waiter to a small living room in the Shenlei Building, and after hearing that he would have to wait a while to get the money, he was very bold enough to ask the waiter to help him prepare a sumptuous dinner, and brought the three exquisite material atlases, wanting to see what the materials were.

Now he can be described as wealthy, although he has not yet gotten the money, but with the reputation of Shenleilou, he will never be greedy for his money, so he is very relieved.

Two hours later, Lei Xiu sat down in his chair full of wine and food, looking at the third atlas that had terrified him before.

He was going to buy some materials to build some equipment for himself, and in the battle with Rika, he was forced by the opponent's dagger at first, and even got injured, of course, because he had almost no combat experience, but if he had a handy weapon at that time, he would not be so embarrassed.

Just as Lei Xiu opened the atlas, Han Boke, the chief manager of the Divine Thunder Building, walked into the door of the building.

Hanbock is an old man over eighty years old, with pale hair and a kind complexion, his figure should be considered very tall, but he has been lying on his back, and his eyes are always drooping, giving people a feeling of not being able to lift his spirits, and if he walks on the street, he will never attract the slightest attention from others, but in the entire city of Yaori, no one dares to underestimate this old man.

Because it is this inconspicuous old man who has been in charge of the Shenlei Tower in Yaori City for nearly sixty years, and has won the trust of the headquarters of the Shenlei Tower and the major shareholders.

Accompanied by four guards, Hanbock walked slowly to the escalator, just in time to see Quinn walking out of the door of the staircase, full of spring breeze.

Quinn was still very happy today, although he didn't buy that dagger, he also got the 'Flame Explosion' created by Master Mandala as he wished, which was enough to make his strength skyrocket by one order.

After the door of the stairwell opened, Quinn couldn't help but pause when he saw Hanbock outside the door, and hurriedly handed the 'Yanbang' he couldn't put down to his entourage, and nodded honestly, "Hello Lord Hanberk, I didn't expect you to come too." ”

When Hanbock heard the voice, he raised his drooping eyelids with difficulty and looked at them, and a smile appeared on his wrinkled face, "Oh, it's little Quinn, hello, is that old guy Aesop okay? He hasn't come to me for a while to drink and fish, can't he hang up?"

Quinn smiled awkwardly, "You joked, my grandfather and his old man are in good health, and he mentioned you a few days ago, saying that he was very unconvinced that he lost fishing with you last time, and he wants to find you again to take revenge." ”

Hanbock laughed happily and said, "Oh, are you not convinced? Haha, then you tell him that I will let him come again, my old man is a good boy for all kinds of disobedience, little Quinn, you are a good boy." ”

With a sigh of relief in his heart, Quinn said respectfully, "Yes, I'll tell him when I get home, Master Hanberk, then I'll go first, and I wish you good health." ”

Just as Quinn turned sideways and tried to walk out of the stairwell door, Hanbock's voice sounded again, "Little Quinn, I heard that you were lucky this time, you got the 'fire explosion' of that guy in the mandala, I haven't congratulated you yet." ”

Quinn's heart, which had just been relieved, instantly lifted, and he replied a little embarrassed, "Yes, I'm lucky, I hope my father will like this birthday present." ”

Hanbock nodded, and said in a somewhat embarrassed tone, "Is it little Marlon's birthday? He's also in his forties, right? Hey, he still peed on me when he was a child, time flies so fast." ”

Quinn didn't know how to answer this sentence, so he could only stand in place and smile with an embarrassed expression, but Hanbok quickly continued to speak, "Little Quinn, I heard that you did something not very good just now, how can you violate the rules of the Divine Thunder Tower?"

Quinn's cold sweat fell instantly, and what he feared the most happened, and this matter was still known by this scary old guy with a high status and seniority.

"Hell, didn't you say that this old guy won't come to the building today, why did he suddenly come again!"

Hanbock's cloudy eyes suddenly burst into a cold light, and he shook his head and said, "I wasn't there just now, and I didn't preside over today's auction, so for the sake of Aesop's old guy's face, I forgive you this time, but you remember, there will be no next time, if I know that you have foolishly violated the rules of the Divine Thunder Tower again, all of you Gilbert family will become guests that the Divine Thunder Tower refuses to receive, and not only Yaori City, but all the Divine Thunder Towers in the empire!"

Quinn trembled in his heart, and hurriedly nodded, "Grandpa Hanbock, don't be angry, I know it's wrong, don't worry, I promise that I will never violate the rules of the Divine Thunder Building in the future." ”

Seeing Quinn's frightened look, Hanbock nodded with satisfaction, "That's right, little Quinn, you are a good boy, it must be that little Marlon spoiled you, don't worry, I will teach him a lesson when I see him." ”

"Kindly" patted Quinn's shoulder, and Hanbock didn't care that the other party's face was bitter as if he was about to cry, so he continued to walk slowly into the stairwell.

After a while, the assistant in black came to report to Ferres, and the old manager was already waiting for him in the office.

Ferres perked up, rubbed his face vigorously, and then stepped out the door and headed straight for Hanbock's office.

Located in Hanberke's office, Ferres reported everything that happened today to the chief steward, but the strange thing is that even if he said that there was a stack of equipment in the building today, the chief steward's brow did not move, but when he said the word Mr. Murder, the steward who was as steady as a giant mountain trembled all over, although because of the drooping eyelids, Ferres could not see the other party's eyes, but he was very sure that Hanberke's heart must not be at peace.

After Ferres finished reporting, Hanbock took a sip of the teacup in front of him, and then said slowly, "Ferres, I know that you have done a good job in the past few years, and I have seen your efforts, so I recommended you to the headquarters to take my place, but you disappointed me too much today." ”

Ferres buried his head deep in his chest and said very guiltily, "Lord Steward, I'm sorry, I disappointed you, I shouldn't be so careless, just auction off a stack of equipment at will, I know that the particularly precious elemental equipment and materials should be reported to the headquarters first, but I was forced by them at the time I really can't help it, I know it's wrong." ”

Shaking his head, Hanbock sighed and said, "It's not these that I'm disappointed, I've deliberately cultivated your confidence in the past few years, and I didn't even come to the building if I had nothing to do, just to raise your prestige, but unfortunately, your prestige is all superficial, in your heart, you still regard yourself as a small person, let me ask you, Quinn violated the rules of the Shenlei Building, why didn't you cancel his auction qualification on the spot?"

Ferres was shocked in his heart, and hurriedly said, "Lord Steward, I just wanted to explain this matter to you, I think you have such a good relationship with the old Marquis Gilbert, and Quinn didn't do too much at that time, so I didn't disqualify him." ”

"Huh. After sneering, Humbock said, "So you didn't disqualify him for the sake of my face?"

Ferres hurriedly bowed his head and said, "The subordinates don't dare, the subordinates know that they are wrong!"

"Hey!" Han Boke sighed again and said, "You, you just don't take yourself seriously, you are now the deputy head of the Shenlei Tower in Yaori City, and your identity is only under me, do you think you need to give those people so much face? The most critical reason why those people come to our Shenlei Tower is not because of our good service and good attitude, but because we can give them a lot of things that they can't buy outside, we have almost monopolized the entire empire's elemental equipment and materials market, do you know what this means?" It means that we can welcome people with a smile and an enthusiastic attitude, but our waist bar must be straight!"

"I know you're hell-bent on becoming a hereditary baron, and you think the title is the most important thing, huh, bullshit, tell me, what title am I now?"

Ferres wiped the cold sweat from his face and whispered, "You are now the hereditary viscount of the Empire. ”

Han Boke nodded, "That's right, I'm just a hereditary viscount, so why is Aesop as a marquis and the lord of Yaori City as an earl, and they are all higher than me, but no one dares to disrespect me?

Ferres raised his head suddenly, his eyes showing an astonishing look, and at this moment, he had a sense of epiphany, as if he had realized the most important truth in life.

Hanbock blew the tea stalk in the teacup and continued, "I originally intended to let you realize these truths by yourself, but you have gone astray, Ferres, how can the mere title compare to the resources and strength in your hands? ”

After hearing this, Ferres's heart suddenly twitched, and he hurriedly said, "Lord Steward, don't worry, I won't let you down again!"

Nodding slowly, Hanbock said, "Well, I'll watch you, now, you go and bring that boy over for me." ”

Just as Ferres respectfully exited the door, Hanbock raised his head and sighed wistfully, "Old fellow, I finally heard your name, I thought I wouldn't hear anything about you in my lifetime, you are such a ruthless fellow, Roger!"
