Little Family Treasure of the Apocalyptic Boss - Ch 68
Chapter 68 Bankruptcy
The little snake sub-beast’s family’s carriage became the “new noble” signature of the academy.
Since the first day, with Ming Ya and Ling Jue accompanying him, the peculiar carriage that had caused a slight stir when entering the city completely shed its former low-key appearance after smoothly settling at the entrance of the academy. It instantly became the talk of the town within the Dragon Palace Academy as more and more students and teachers were “coincidentally” brought to the academy in the carriage.
The smooth and fast ride that the little snake sub-beast had long been accustomed to was considered super amazing by the natives!
The spacious interior of the carriage that the little snake sub-beast was used to was also super amazing!
Delicious and unheard-of breakfasts, fruits, and snacks remained super amazing!
…
In short, the more the news about the carriage spread, the more it became synonymous with being super amazing.
Everyone took pride in being invited by the little snake sub-beast to ride in the carriage to school.
Unfortunately, in the soft and soft little junior/same-level’s family, there was a beastly person who was as terrifying as the carriage.
He didn’t agree.
As disappointed as scattered students were, they had nothing to say.
Visibly, the attitude towards the kind little snake sub-beast became even more affectionate in contrast.
Ye Ze was very satisfied with this.
That’s how it should be. He arranged for this to make you envy, not to be your school bus.
If the little snake sub-beast had to get up early and rush around every day to go to school, wouldn’t that be putting the cart before the horse?
He firmly disagreed!
“Ah, if only I could be assigned to the upper-level section. I heard that An Nuo himself is super easygoing, good to his classmates, and not at all as haughty as those big noble families. It’s so fortunate to be his friend!”
A female student gushed, holding her face. Remembering the last encounter with the little snake sub-beast, she suddenly overflowed with affection, and countless small pink flowers flew behind her.
Her companions were speechless, but they couldn’t deny that An Nuo was indeed quite attractive.
In every aspect.
“Focus on practicing well. I heard that the upper-level students are reassigned every year. After that, it’s not based on the level of talent at enrollment, but on their own cultivation abilities. Keep true to yourself, and maybe we’ll have a chance too.”
A companion comforted her. Seemingly casual, the hand holding the booklet tightened subconsciously.
“You’re not that indifferent either!” The lively female bumped her arm, about to continue teasing when her movements suddenly stiffened. She immediately shut up and stood up straight, looking anxiously at the approaching Qinglan.
Qinglan passed by with a displeased expression.
Even though they could clearly hear the discussion, Qinglan didn’t grab them to reprimand them as he used to.
The two new students looked at each other, a huge question mark appearing over their heads. For a moment, they even forgot the joy of surviving the ordeal.
The discussion surrounding the little snake sub-beast changed its theme when he entered school today.
The little snake sub-beast breathed a sigh of relief at no longer being the center of attention.
Just as he was about to shake off the burden and straighten his back, he was brought back to reality by the following content. The chubby little figure curled up into a ball, feeling wronged.
It seems like it’s still related to him?
Ming Ya held the little snake sub-beast’s hand and shielded the shy little cutie behind him. Listening intently, he openly eavesdropped on the surrounding discussions.
Ling Jue, on the other hand, guarded the little snake sub-beast on the other side. Thinking of the news he had received earlier, he didn’t stop Ming Ya, who was unusually excited today.
“Huh? Isn’t it strange today? Wasn’t Qinglan boasting loudly before? Why isn’t he reacting now?”
“Don’t you know? I heard something happened to Qinglan’s family!”
“What? Isn’t their family a big merchant family? How could something happen?”
Ming Ya’s mouth twitched. Under the little snake sub-beast’s puzzled gaze, he silently retreated back to his side. Waving his hand, he said, “It’s nothing. It’s just the same old news.”
Ling Jue was speechless.
You only found out about it this morning, didn’t you? What are you pretending to be so mature for?
The little snake sub-beast looked around in confusion.
What were the two buddies playing at today?
Soon, the voices from nearby gave him an answer.
“The largest fabric merchant in the Dragon Palace City is from Qinglan’s family, right? Now their business is in trouble, it’s a big deal!”
“It is said that this time, the city Lord personally intervened to recommend and introduce that mysterious merchant. They’re promoting a kind of fabric that’s lighter, better, and even cheaper. My family brought back a bolt of it last time, and the quality and texture were absolutely amazing! Even ordinary people are pursuing the price and buying new fabric. Even among the upper-class merchants and nobles, there are probably very few who can resist such beautiful fabric.”
“So, now the entire upper-class fabric business in the Dragon Palace City has shifted to the one recommended by the city Lord. It’s said that when the subsequent raw materials are produced, even His Majesty the White Dragon will join in the promotion. Once these businesses are fully deployed, what do you think will happen to the Qinglan family, who can’t switch professions in time and has a large stockpile of goods?”
“Haha, what else can happen? Bankruptcy. After all, their family isn’t considered a prestigious noble family, otherwise they wouldn’t have to cherish the upper-level talent that came from below as if it were a treasure. It’s just that they hitched a ride on that person’s bridge a few years ago, gained power, and became very arrogant.”
The little snake sub-beast tilted his head, trying to understand the sequence of events, but Ming Ya and Ling Jue quickly regained their senses and escorted the little snake sub-beast away, one on each side, away from the polluted place of gossip.
Little snake sub-beast: “?”
“Business warfare, I know about it.” Why not let me listen?
The little snake sub-beast sat in his seat, puffed up his cheeks, and swished his tail in dissatisfaction.
“I’m not a child anymore!” The little snake sub-beast emphasized again.
His agritainment was about to open. And Ye Zi’s picking farm was also mostly prepared.
According to Ye Zi, he was about to be a big boss! [Proudly raise chest]
Ming Ya chuckled awkwardly, speechless and looking up at the sky.
Ordinary business competition didn’t matter, of course. The key was that your family’s business warfare was a bit different from others!
This violator who didn’t know when he got involved with the White Dragon forces and wielded the weapon of power and influence to attack was deliberately instructed to them.
How could he let him hear about these high-level twists and turns?
The little snake sub-beast snorted lightly. He leaned on the table, deciding not to pay attention to Ming Ya for three seconds.
Let him always guess riddles with Nuo Nuo.
Without any hints, how could Nuo Nuo possibly guess right?
Ye Zi is still better.
He will answer whatever Nuo Nuo asks, super patient, super gentle…
Ah! Shy!
The little snake sub-beast buried himself in the table, covering his face and shaking from side to side. Laughing like crazy.
Ming Ya and Ling Jue, who felt like they were overdressed with dog food, hiccupped!
“Nuo Nuo, why did you only eat so little today? Not feeling hungry?” Ye Ze touched the little snake sub-beast’s forehead, the temperature normal. Then he looked at the small snake bowl in front of him, showing concern.
“Umm, no.” The little snake sub-beast rubbed his full belly, not quite understanding. “It’s just, suddenly lost my appetite?”
Ye Ze couldn’t help but laugh at his confused look. He lightly tapped the little snake sub-beast’s forehead with his fingertip. “Alright. I’ll prepare some snacks for you in the room later. In case you get hungry at night, we’ll add some more.”
“Mm.” The little snake sub-beast nodded obediently.
“Has anyone been bullying you at school recently?” Ye Ze pinched the soft cheeks of the little snake sub-beast, asking gently.
“Nope. Everyone said that the backbone of the Qinglan family is too busy to bother with them, so Qinglan doesn’t have time to come trouble Ming Ya anymore.”
The little snake sub-beast stood up, yawning, feeling inexplicably tired.
“You’ve been feeling sleepy a lot lately. Are you too tired? Let’s not think about the restaurant today. Rest early. Hmm?” Ye Ze placed his hands on the little snake sub-beast’s shoulders, guiding him towards the room.
“But… there’s still the bowl…”
“I’ll have it washed for you.”
“And…”
“And you need to take a bath in the bathroom. Then go to bed!”
“…Oh. But…”
“What bedtime story does Nuo Nuo want to hear tonight?”
“The Little Mermaid!” Suddenly enthusiastic response.
Ye Ze suppressed a smile, patting the little snake sub-beast’s head as he looked back. “No problem.”
Then, he turned his head towards the incessant footsteps behind him and saw four World Spirits queuing up, wanting to enter the room with them.
Ten eyes stared immediately.
Neither willing to yield.
Ye Ze fell silent for a moment. Thinking about the little snake sub-beast’s recent strange fatigue, he decided to temporarily give them the green light.
These World Spirits were also closely related to the little snake sub-beast. In this sudden abnormal behavior, who knows what they might have sensed.
