"Geri. Lerch, has the counterfeit dealer that Wally said has arrived?"
"Yes, Your Excellency. The other party has arrived, but the meeting place ......"
"Where they appointed, huh?"
β...... Sorry, Your Excellency. The group insisted that this was a necessary precondition and that if they did not agree, they would not talk about it. β
The man in black, known as Keeley, bowed his head deeply, as if he wanted to bury himself in something - perhaps soft sand or something, perhaps he felt that doing so would make the fear lessen, and that the pain of the thunder would be lessened.
Keely wasn't some kind of big bird that couldn't fly but was good at running, and he couldn't do a difficult task that even that peculiar bird couldn't do.
So he could only lower his head as much as he could, waiting for Li Lin's verdict on him.
If Keeley had known some of the most basic procedures for his top boss, he would certainly not have made unnecessary and unnecessary worries.
"Okay, tell them, the meeting place is up to them, and by the way, even the meeting time has been finalized. β
"The customer is God", Wilt does not have the seemingly omnipotent illusory idol and his wife and son, and the small position of the many subordinates, and the basic principles and maxims of business are still universal.
Counterfeit money dealers don't deserve respect and love, but they are Li Lin's customers. So they can make an opinion with a little suspicion and offense, and Li Lin won't mind this little thing - as long as they are still in the customer's position. If they become competitors, then let them go to God...... It should be the mother goddess Marfa.
The man in black owes his body and quickly disappears into the bustling crowd.
"Get out of the way!!"
"Don't you understand?!Get out of the way!!"
The sound of scolding even drowned out the growing commotion, occasionally mixed with the whistling of whips and mournful wails. The prostitutes soliciting, the shouting vendors, and the guards guarding the stalls shouted and shoved each other out of the middle of the road, not understanding what was happening, and the elves, who prioritized the protection of goods, subconsciously jumped out of the carriage and held their hands on the position of the hidden weapons to carefully guard against the chaos.
The expected situation of overturning the carriage and stampeding and looting the goods did not happen, and the panicked crowd quickly stood along the stalls on both sides of the passage, leaving the two carriages and a group of elves disguised as humans in the middle of the passage and staring at each other as if there was no zΓ i in front of them.
What's going on?
Then the elves saw something that made them jaw-dropping.
Meat.
Strip away a bunch of words to describe the grooming, and all that's left is one word to describe the elves' first impressions.
Heaps of fat flesh decorated with garish, striped, oddly cumbersome cotton cloths and gold and silver ornaments were piled on an open-top carriage and were moving from the perpendicular passage behind their carriage. Whether it is the luxurious open-top carriage that acts as a vehicle, the four horses that drag the carriage, and the servants who hug each other in front and back, they don't seem to be as eye-catching as the pieces of meat that leak all the nouveau riche breath into the air, after all, they are just superficial and vulgar accessories, and they are used as a backdrop. Compared to the paranoid inferiority complex of the deity disguising the ugly as a noble at any cost, the success of the disguise is not a problem.
The smooth cone of the suspected skull at the top of the [meat mass] turned boringly, because the fat accumulated was too thick, and the part of the [face] could only see a bunch of stuffy moles, folds, pockmarks, and skin acne piled up on the surface of the loose skin, and the facial features were piled up with oil, which was almost indistinguishable from the skin. There was a greasy reflection on the whole head, and it was completely difficult to observe the expression.
What was surprising, and at the same time extremely unpleasant to the elves, was the gaze that shot out of the slits of the fat pile. ...,
The other's, bluffing, slightly neurotic eyes are occasionally and inevitably confronted by the elves.
Both sides were too abrupt in the silent bazaar, except for the vendors and customers, who stared at the ground like prisoners inspected by jailers, and it was not surprising to find each other unusual, and then they were both very uncomfortable.
He never thought that there would be [equality] - this extremely disrespectful perspective for a [big man] of his status appeared in the bazaar like his own territory, and there was neither the clothing of a superior person, nor the few poor boys who accompanied him dared to look at him with a level of eyes, and the chest of [Meat] was suddenly filled with resentment.
This is an outright offense, an outright insult -- a neurotic sensitive mind that can only lead to narrow conclusions, and an inappropriate paranoia turns into a monstrous rage.
The wooden shoes on the soles of his feet made a dull sound on the floor of the carriage, and when he heard the agreed [stop] code, the coachman tightened the reins, and the carriage stopped moving.
The men, who were obviously more elaborate than the rest of the entourage, walked through the guards as they approached the convertible carriage, and the middle-aged man looked up at his master with a sycophantic smile on his face.
"Who are those poor ghosts?"
Although the anger in his heart was constantly increasing, the effort to maintain his semblance of reserve was not let go at all, and the deep voice full of majesty hummed like a water tank.
Comprehending the unhappiness in the voice, following the extension of the master's line of sight, the dazzling figures and the carriage suddenly entered the field of vision. The faces of important people in memory are extracted, and there is no one whose appearance and the rustic, dull-headed little guys in front of him can match the number.
"It's a fresh face, sir. β
Hide his disdainful face, redraw a flattering smile and fix it at the angle of looking up.
"These are all countrymen who have come here for the first time to set up a stall, do you need me to teach these hillbillies who don't know the rules a lesson?"
There was no answer to the butler who was ready to pounce on him like a dog and bite him, and the flames burning in his pupils seemed to subside. Curious and contemptuous, he began to scrutinize the group of country buns.
There are two old style freight carriages that have long been outdated, and a few wooden boxes are carefully fixed in the carriages, which may be goods to be sold. The carriage was guarded by half-grown children dressed as hunters. As the butler said, they are just ignorant hillbillies who don't know the rules.
Big people don't get angry with a few fools, as for whether they should open up to fools who don't know the rules......
Thinking about how to make rules came to an abrupt end, and only the navy blue hair was left in sight, and the fish-colored genes inherited from his father and ancestors began to stir.

Impudent guy.
ββIt's not just the other party who thinks so, but the elves' comments on the condescending gaze are strikingly similar to the comments made by [Meat Block].
In the villages of the Niflheim Valley, the elves had an unimaginably weak concept of class. Due to the extremely difficult living conditions, the villagers got along with each other in a primitive and simple way of helping and supporting each other, and even for the high-ranking emir patriarch, everyone responded more with respect rather than deliberate obedience.
Now, for no reason, the fat man turned his contemptuous and insulting gaze on the elves with strong self-esteem. It is not surprising that this leads to anti-feelings. If there is no strong sense of responsibility to suppress the impulse, the young elves will definitely do something to intensify the atmosphere like human teenagers of the same age.
In order to respond to the expectations of the village, in order to prove their determination and ability. From Brunhill to Tyre, they have suppressed their resentment and tried to avoid a head-on conflict that would ruin efforts and opportunities. The illusion camouflage technique cut off the iron-clad faces from the gaze of the pointers. ...,
"What's the matter, that pig?"
"It's uncomfortable. β
"Is there something wrong with human beings, staring at men so disgustingly. β
The whispering and ear-biting were still done in Charlemagne, and the elves would not miss the tiniest details, and in order to prevent any unfortunate [accidents], the elven lads tightened their fingers on their respective weapons.
If there is a [surprise], it must be appropriate to respond with [surprise].
[The results of the comparison show that the poor living conditions make the younger generation of elves more precocious than humans.] γ
Stamp the elves' table with a stamp of [qualified], and add a calm comment. Li Lin's attention shifted to the end of the street, the vulgarly decorated carriage.
It can be concluded that the [meat cube] who is definitely wrong with his aesthetic taste is a person who can exert great influence on the entire market, and it is very likely that he is the organizer and operator here, but there is obviously something wrong with his business philosophy.
The demonstration of authority can promote the cohesion and centripetal force of the enterprise organization, and achieve the purpose of improving operational efficiency. Excessive display of authority is a meaningless waste, which not only incurs the centrifugal disgust of subordinates and customers, but also drives the object that should be enclosed to the enemy, resulting in the collapse of the career.
The basic purpose of business activities is to make a profit, and to disguise oneself as a government official and assume a high-ranking bureaucratic posture -- this kind of behavior that pushes all customers and merchants to the opposite side is not only unwise, but completely brain-dead.
There should be only one reason for the brain-dead to occupy an unsuitable position that they should not occupy.
Blood advantage, family inheritance. The popular saying is [my dad's name is XX] (note).
In the current social environment, which is far from institutionally sound, inequality and disparity are a part of everyday life, a matter of course, and people have no doubt about this and do nothing about it. As an [invader of another world], Li Lin has no obligation to change this state of being available, and he does not plan to cultivate a group of tools that preach [freedom, democracy, and human rights] and use them to interfere in the internal affairs of other countries and even subvert the governments of other countries, scientifically known as the "Belt and Road Party" and "JY" - although he will do so sooner or later.
It is even more stupid to mingle with such a guy whose mind and body are different from ordinary people to seek development, and a partner who is short-sighted and has the wrong business philosophy will only drag him into trouble or even disaster.
At present, all he needs to do is sell goods and collect profits, and Li Lin does not want to develop a relationship with the owner of the bazaar outside of business dealings.
As for the disgusting lustful gaze of indulging in sensuality, the lucky or unfortunate Li Lin could not feel offended, nor did he understand the nature of human beings who would do all kinds of stupid things, including [looking for death], in order to obtain carnal pleasure. His eyes were completely focused on the crowd standing in front of him, exploring the route and method of leaving the stagnant passage as much as possible, and realizing the confluence with the anxious and panicked Leerch outside the crowd. Avoid the rising and expanding possibility of conflict.
But the state of affairs is often irrelevant or contrary to the will, he does not cause conflict, and the conflict will always find itself by itself.
[Meat Ball] talked to the lewd and thin man on the side of the vulgar carriage for a few words, and [The Clothed Big Horse Monkey] trotted past the carriage of Li Lin and his party, wearing nouveau riche clothes full of flavor and running methods with a smooth crutch are hilarious.
[Joker] - the merchants in the bazaar together issued a comment that was repeated thousands of times, in the stomach.
The harlequin in the eyes of everyone stopped in front of the two groups of inferior horses that were far more than his height, and the obscene voices could be heard in most of the market.
"Mr. Murray needs a servant, a dark-haired boy - that's you, serve Mr. Murray honestly!"
Everyone's surprised, sad, sighing, erotic, ambiguous, and gloating eyes focused on the teenager driving, and the calm smile was etched into the many retinas and memories in the bazaar.

Note 1: In a way, this is an ugly social phenomenon, where the conscientious public will be filled with righteous indignation, the vulnerable will express their dissatisfaction, and social critics will first loudly denounce the lack of morality, and then make statements with motives in the category of "We should ask ourselves, what kind of system leads to such a problem? This is a system problem, it must be a system problem".
No matter what the last group of people nicknamed "Cents" and "GZJY" thought or did, except for a moment of commotion and trouble. This kind of person can't change anything, and he can't create anything.
