Embers Ad Infinitum

Although Long Yuehong was a little mentally prepared for Shang Jianyao's reaction, she still inevitably felt panicked.

This is the First City... Our mission has just begun... Wouldn't it be bad to cause trouble rashly? He wanted to say this, but in the end he kept his mouth shut.

He glanced left and right and found that neither the team leader nor Bai Chen stopped Shang Jianyao and stood up silently. Gnawa showed hesitant to speak, but Long Yuehong was not sure whether he was analyzing. Finally, I felt that I should do this, and deliberately simulated the corresponding behavior to make myself more like a human being.

The team leader and Xiaobai seem to be more inclined to do something, but they will consider the consequences and analyze the pros and cons, so they are hesitant... When it comes to risky actions, Shang Jianyao is the "responsible" one for the whole team to make the decision. That person... Long Yuehong muttered a few words, checked the weapons he carried, and walked towards the door.

The target location was not difficult to find. Relying on the intermittent cry of the "she-wolf", the "Old Tune Team" arrived at an eight-story building in just ten minutes.

Glancing around, they saw a big sign hanging on the roof of the building, which read in Honghe dialect:

"Gray Coyote Den"

"Both the seventh and eighth floors are..." Long Yuehong broke the silence that had followed the group since she had nothing to say.

Jiang Baimian said "hmm", watched Shang Jianyao enter the building, and pressed the button.

One of the three elevators came down quickly, and the five members of the "Old Tune Team" walked in one after another.

Gnawa was the last one. As he stepped in, the elevator sank heavily and shook several times.

Long Yuehong looked around at the situation in the elevator and found that the walls were old and had many spots.

There are also some white papers stuck on its surface, some of which are paintings and some of which are photos. The contents are very consistent - different women, some posing or making certain parts vaguely visible, all have the appearance and characteristics of women who are obviously from the Gray Earth people.

Long Yuehong withdrew her gaze and breathed out silently.

Not long after, the elevator arrived at the seventh floor, and the landing door and car door opened one after another.

As soon as Long Yuehong walked out, she saw four men with pistols. They were all from Honghe, with different hair colors. They were wearing the same black short-sleeved T-shirts, and their arm muscles bulged.

On their sides and on the walls on both sides of the aisle, there are colorful murals showing different positions of men and women having sex.

"It has obvious implications of male genital worship." Jiang Baimian also saw those murals and made a brief comment without paying attention to Long Yuehong's blushing face.

At this time, a guard stepped forward and said in Honghe dialect:

"Sorry, we don't accept female guests here."

"It doesn't matter what you say, let your boss come." Shang Jianyao raised his chin slightly, showing an arrogant look.

After sizing up the robot behind them, the guard who had spoken before calmly retreated into the corridor and entered the "wolf's den".

In just a minute or two, a slightly obese man came to the elevator with the guard just now.

He holds a "United 202" in his right hand. He is just over 1.7 meters tall. He has short chestnut hair that is slightly curly, with a slight swelling around his eyes, and a thick beard around his mouth.

"Guys, what's going on?" The man in a messy black shirt asked in a deep voice.

"Are you the boss here?" Shang Jianyao asked politely.

The man nodded:

"That's right, there are other partners."

"What do you call it?" Shang Jianyao asked with a smile.

The man frowned slightly and said:

"Og, what do you want to do?"

Shang Jianyao said with an unchanged smile:

"Mr. Ogg, I'm here to give you advice.

"Your business is not doing well, why not spend some time training them to cut vegetables and ingredients and turn it into a hot pot restaurant."

Ogg raised his left hand that was not holding the gun and took out the corresponding ear.

He deeply doubted whether he had heard correctly just now.

Are you kidding me? He couldn't help but cursed secretly.

He originally thought that these people were here to cause trouble, and he thought he could use the money to spend it, but if that didn't work, he would find an opportunity to escape, go back to gather people, hire a team that could deal with the robots, and come back for revenge.

Who knows, they look like they're drunk.

After pondering for a moment, Ogg sneered:

"The female slaves I bought with money have to do whatever I want them to do, and you have no control over it!

"Tell me, who sent you to cause trouble?"

While talking, the four guards at the door greeted their companions in the "Wolf's Den".

Ten seconds later, four or five people with mini submachine guns rushed out and aimed at Shang Jianyao and others.

They were also wearing black short-sleeved T-shirts.

The prostitutes in the "Wolf's Den" also noticed the abnormality at the door, and some of them gathered around blankly and looked towards the elevator.

They are all from the gray soil, with thin clothes, expressionless faces, slightly hollow eyes, and lack of vitality that comes naturally to people in their teens and twenties.

Shang Jianyao laughed and said to Ogg and others:

"Look:

“They live here and you live here;

“They are human beings and you are human beings;

"so……"

Ogg and the other eight guards looked dazed, then suddenly turned around and rushed back to the "Wolf's Den" reception hall, rushing to the side of the Gray-Turk prostitutes.

They stuck their heads out the window, opened their mouths and shouted:

"Ouch!"

It's like a male wolf courting a mate.

The only guard who was not affected was stunned.

Although those Gray-Turk prostitutes could not understand the Red River language, they could understand what the usually vicious bosses and guards were doing.

Their eyes started to move, and there was a look of surprise on their dull faces.

Jiang Baimian turned his head and looked at Shang Jianyao, and said in gray earth language:

"Have you figured out how to deal with the aftermath?"

Shang Jianyao first said to the remaining guard:

"follow me."

Then, while walking into the "wolf's den", he answered Jiang Baimian's question with a smile:

"I just said, transform this place into a hot pot restaurant or some other restaurant."

Are you sure you can continue to operate? Jiang Baimian didn't care to lament Shang Jianyao's thinking, and subconsciously replied like this.

At this time, a Gray-Turk prostitute who understood the conversation between the two was timid and a little eager to go up the first few steps:

"You, are you here to save us?"

Her face was quite clean and her appearance was pretty, but she looked tired and her spirit was in a trance from time to time.

"No, I'm here to discuss cooperation with you." Shang Jianyao said seriously, "How about running a hot pot restaurant or some other restaurant together?"

Jiang Baimian resisted the urge to raise his hands to cover his face and asked:

"What do you call it?"

The gray native prostitute just now replied hurriedly:

"My name is Suna."

While talking, other Gray-Turk prostitutes slowly gathered around, their eyes no longer so empty.

"Suna, right..." Jiang Baimian asked thoughtfully, "Can a hotpot restaurant or a certain type of restaurant be run here? Can it sustain so many of you?"

...The team leader was also infected by Shang Jianyao... He actually considered the feasibility of opening a restaurant... Long Yuehong tried to seek Bai Chen's approval, but found that his petite companion wearing a scarf was deep in thought.

She seemed to be thinking about how to arrange the future of these gray native prostitutes.

Suna looked at her companions blankly and said hesitantly:

"It definitely won't work here. If you can get cheap food on the first and second floors, you can still open it. It's close to the port and there are many sailors. They don't have much money, but they are willing to spend it on women, food and wine. , Well, many merchants and their guards often live in the port area."

"You are observing very carefully." Jiang Baimian nodded thoughtfully.

Su Na pursed her lips and said:

“Our customers mainly come from the port.

"But Ogg doesn't allow us to learn Honghe language, because he is afraid that we will cause trouble for him by communicating with the guests."

At this time, another girl interjected:

"He would let us cook, which would save money on hiring a chef."

Her eyes were brighter than before, and she was eager to prove that she and others had basic cooking abilities.

Jiang Baimian said "hmm":

“Don’t worry about the source of ingredients needed by restaurants, we have channels.”

This refers to the several manors of the Zhao family.

If you can't get rid of the "anti-intellectual religion" for a while, then contact Xu Liyan, who also purchased a manor in the First City.

Jiang Baimian thought about it and asked curiously:

"With your business alone, can Ogg afford to support so many thugs?"

"This building belongs to Ogg. He is still here, and he is still selling something that makes people feel excited when they smoke it." Su Na truthfully stated what she observed.

Upon hearing this, Shang Jianyao turned his head and looked at the remaining guard amidst the roars of the male wolf.

The guard explained "obediently":

"Cannabis and some new products from the Isle of Bliss."

"Have you smoked?" Jiang Baimian asked Su Na and others.

At this time, the Gray-Turk prostitutes who had not come out before also poured into the hall, and a few guests followed them in confusion. They were politely invited aside by Gennava and Long Yuehong.

"No. How could he be willing to give us something so expensive?" Su Na shook her head.

She couldn't hide her eagerness and asked:

"It's OK to open a restaurant, but what should they do?"

She was referring to Ogg and others.

Shang Jianyao laughed, making the remaining guard tremble with fear.

"Leave this to me." He pointed to the room deep in the "Wolf's Den" and said, "You come with me."

The first half of his sentence is in Huitu dialect, and the second half is in Honghe dialect.

The guard looked mournful:

"No……"

That being said, he didn't dare to refuse.

In this way, Shang Jianyao brought Ogg and others into the room one by one, and completed the new "reasoning clown", allowing them to form a circular argument.

Su Na and other former Gray native prostitutes were surprised to find that the vicious boss and the terrifying guard had turned into sheep, and they were obedient and obeyed their orders.

"Now they are your servants." Shang Jianyao said while looking at the paper in his hand, "Well, if you convince these people on the list one by one, there will be no problems in a short time. Wow, it looks like a Quite a big gangster."

"What about in a short time?" Jiang Baimian asked the thoughts of Su Na and others.

Shang Jianyao took the "United 202" from Ogg's hand and handed it to Su Na.

He said sincerely with a smile on his face:

"Hurry up and master it. If any of them shows abnormality, give him a bang."

"This..." Su Na and others were stunned.

Shang Jianyao's smile became even brighter:

“I said, we are here to discuss cooperation.

"The only one who can save you in the end is you."
