Doomsday Code

Watching Melinda leave, Finniel walked through the female classmates who surrounded her and asked for perfume and came to Chen Cheng.

Finier puffed up her cheeks and said to Chen Cheng:

"You and Teacher Melinda are really friendly. One of you helps with the admission requirements, and the other one rushes to give you something good when she has it. I am really envious of you."

After saying this, Finier snorted coldly.

Chen Cheng scratched his head when listening to Finier's somewhat sarcastic words. He wondered where this little girl learned these from.

I wonder if this little Loli knows that she is jealous.

However, Chen Cheng knew that the little Lolita needed to be coaxed, so he hurriedly said:

"There's no need to talk about all that. This is also a gift for Teacher Isabel. My magical knowledge was taught by both teachers. As a student, I should show my respect when I get good things.

Besides, giving gifts can enhance the relationship between teachers and students, which is good for us after all. The engraving of the energy storage magic pattern can also make the teacher pay more attention to us."

Chen Cheng explained after racking his brains.

At the same time, he was apologizing to Melinda and the others in his heart, because they couldn't be the kind of people who would be treated differently after receiving gifts as he said.

"Hmph, you explained it quickly."

Finier naturally knew what kind of people Melinda and the others were like. Otherwise, given Chen Cheng's status and if Melinda was a snob, how could she have allowed him to enroll?

While watching Chen Cheng hurriedly explaining to her, she was secretly thinking that what her little sisters said was indeed right, that one should be more unreasonable when dealing with men.

If Chen Cheng knew that Finier's inexplicable jealousy was taught by the little girls who played with her, I'm afraid Chen Cheng would go up and scold those little girls.

Finier waved her hand and said:

“Seeing that little fat guy looks anxious to find you, I won’t bother you anymore.

Remember to make a killing from him later. I have never seen anyone from the Stowe family suffer a loss in business."

Then, Finier opened Chen Cheng's desk, took out a few remaining bottles of perfume, and said to the little sisters who played with her:

"Anyone who wants to know more about perfume, if you want to know, follow me."

Although those young ladies from noble families looked down on Finier, a new noble, at first, after Finier showed her talent, these young ladies began to fawn over her.

At this time, these noble ladies had already been interested in this kind of perfume that could make people smell good. They walked on the street like ladies from a noble family, and a faint floral fragrance emanated from their bodies, which must have fascinated many people.

These female classmates also followed Finier and dispersed.

Seeing that most people had left, the fat man could no longer sit still. He went straight to Chen Cheng and pulled him to a place where there was no one to talk in detail.

Although he seemed to be listening attentively in the entire class just now, his thoughts had already flown away.

Because he saw huge profits in this perfume, which were different from the cloth business, and this profit did not need to be closely tied to Earl Huidun.

Although this doesn't sound very good, it makes it seem as if the Sto family is going to betray Huidun.

However, the fact is that Huidun's goal is not huge commercial benefits, but the throne.

As his investor or vassal, businesses related to people's livelihood such as cloth need to be absolutely bound together, and in fact all the profits therein should belong to Huidun.

It’s just that now we are considering practical factors, so there is equity distribution.

But perfume is different. It is a luxury product and its sales target are upper-class nobles and wealthy businessmen.

This kind of luxury product is a value-added commodity and does not have much impact on the overall economy of society.

And this can be the sole product of his Stowe family.

Just as the two were leaving, Coles, who had been hailed as a hero ever since the Alchemist Crisis, stared at Chen Cheng's back.

Perhaps it was because he had come into contact with the things left behind by the alchemist. Since he came to the academy, he had become much more sinister than before. Those guys who originally surrounded him and wanted to take advantage of his heroic reputation to lick his boots now stayed away from him because of his sinister temperament.

The fact that he did not receive the heroic treatment he deserved in the academy made his already twisted psychology even more distorted, and his resentment towards Chen Cheng became even deeper than before.

"Just wait. When I truly devour the power in that magic pill, I will make sure that you all die miserably."

Because of Coles' hatred for Chen Cheng, his mind has been distorted by the magic crystal ball of emotional energy left by the alchemist. After he comes into contact with the magic ball full of negative emotional energy, his own negative emotions will be infinitely magnified.

If it weren't for his special physique, he would have become a puppet controlled by emotions long ago.

Although he seems to be a puppet controlled by emotions now, at least he is aware of his own strength and knows how to hide it.

At this time, Chen Cheng was dragged by Acasto to a remote corridor in the academy. Seeing that there was no one around, Chen Cheng shook off the fat man's hand and said:

"Okay, stop talking nonsense. No one here can hear our conversation."

"I can agree to your terms of trade, but I want not only the perfume you provide, but also your accounting method."

The fat boy no longer had his usual naive look at this time, but became very serious and spoke to Chen Cheng.

However, Chen Cheng laughed and said:

“Little Fatty, I have to admit that you are really not as smart as your father, the old fox. You are yawning like a toad.

I just want to ask if your Bulu family can protect him after I give you the recipe for mixing this perfume. I'm afraid you're hoping that your Bulu family will be exterminated as soon as possible."

Chen Cheng had already figured out a lot of things, which was why he did not take out the perfume when he negotiated with Bruce on behalf of Huidun.

Because he knew that the easiest thing to make in the world was women's money, and it was foreseeable how big a response would be once a powerful product like perfume, which had extremely low costs and no worries about sales, appeared.

This kind of product, which is extremely attractive to women, especially women of noble status, cannot be protected by his small merchant family alone.

This time, Chen Cheng took this out just to hook the fat man and let him and the old fox Bruce behind him know that he has more valuable goods in his hands.

There is no way to stop businessmen from pursuing profits. Who knows if that old fox will do something secretly behind the scenes? The best way to tie them up is to let them see that you still have a lot of things in your hands that can bring them huge benefits.

Of course, this kind of seduction must also be based on strength, and it just so happens that the Kekeber family he represents is closely tied to Earl Huidun.

After listening to Chen Cheng's words, the fat boy's excited heart calmed down a little, and then he was scared to the point of breaking out in a cold sweat.

He just thought that if their Bulu family owned this perfume, they would have endless wealth, and the value of this thing came from its added value, without considering the reaction of the people who would use it.

The business environment in this world is not as simple as he imagined. This is a society intertwined with power and force. When he considers business, he should also consider the social environment beyond business.

Perhaps this is why his father said he was immature in business.

After calming down, the little fat man looked at Chen Cheng. He knew that Chen Cheng was in great need of the method to forge magic items.

He has always been very close to Chen Cheng and knows that the magic practiced by Chen Cheng is different from theirs. He is compatible with almost all known elemental magic.

This talent made him a magical genius, but it also brought him trouble, that is, he did not have enough room to engrave the energy-storing magic pattern.

At this time, a magical item that matches it becomes of utmost importance.

This was also the inspiration given to him by Melinda's class just now, which made him understand that Chen Cheng was actually much more anxious about this exchange than he was.

"You want to forge a magical item that suits you.

Well, I was just daydreaming just now, but I think you should take out some bargaining chips now."

"Okay, I take back what I just said. At least your mind can be persuaded. You already have excellent potential to become the heir of a huge family."

Chen Cheng was not stingy with his praise, at least that's what he thought.

Because for a large business family like the Stowe family, the heir they fear most is the kind of person who is determined to do whatever he wants and is determined to achieve his goal.

In that case, his Sto family would not be able to use it for many times, and the entire family would be ruined.

The cooperation between Bryusto and Huidun seems reckless, but behind it is the fact that he has been evaluating and investigating Huidun since he knew that Huidun was going to come to Huidun City to serve as the Earl.

If it weren't for Huidun's previous handling of the alchemist incident, which earned him attention in front of the king, Bryusto's assessment of him would have been more than half correct.

Even if there were enormous benefits in front of him, he would not hesitate to quickly cut off ties with the entire Huidun territory.

It was because he saw that the success rate was more than half, so he found Chen Cheng as quickly as possible.

That's right, it was Chen Cheng he was looking for, because according to his information, Huidun's handling of the incident had Chen Cheng's shadow in it. Otherwise, with Chen Cheng's identity as a slave, how could he meet the richest capitalist in the entire kingdom.

Otherwise, based on a few words from that fat little Acasto, would a big capitalist really be willing to condescend to meet a small slave?

The reason why Brusto was able to place all his fortune on Huidun was, firstly, due to external reasons, and secondly, because of the long conversation he had with Chen Cheng when they first met.

In Chen Cheng's words, he saw the future of his Sto family, and for this future, he was willing to give up the failure rate of less than 50% and put the entire family on the line.

Acasto did not react at all to Chen Cheng's somewhat sarcastic flattery. He was waiting for the price Chen Cheng would offer.

Seeing that the little fat man was unmoved, he could only spread his hands and said:

"Well, you are really an emotionless fat man now. Well, have you noticed that the alcoholic beverages sold in our market are a bit bland? Do you think those warriors who have just finished fighting in the guild mission want to get drunk to relieve their sorrows? But the alcoholic beverages on our market now cannot achieve this effect."

As Chen Cheng said this, he flipped his hand and a magic pattern appeared in it. The next moment, the space in his hand fluctuated and two small porcelain bottles fell out of it.

Looking at this somewhat unsuccessful pretense, Chen Cheng smiled somewhat awkwardly.

The little fat man was even more surprised by Chen Cheng's magical talent. He didn't expect that Chen Cheng could even cast space magic.

Chen Cheng held two small porcelain bottles and said:

"The one on the left is the alcoholic beverage that is commonly sold on the market, and the other bottle is the latest high-strength alcohol I made. You can taste it now."
