Chapter 490

This person was not from Jiang Bei Hotel, but the manager of Huahai Jiang Nan . Jiang Bei Hotel was a subsidiary of Huahai Jiang Nan, which was the most prominent 6-star hotel in Jiang City that belonged to the Baili family .

He was called Zhao Bing . As the manager of Huahai Jiang Nan, he was an important figure under Baili Xuanyuan . Baili Changcheng was planning a gathering at the Jiang Bei Hotel, and he happened to be here to handle some business matters . Originally, this was out of his jurisdiction . However, with the recent open rivalry and veiled strife between Baili Xuanyuan and Baili Changcheng, how could he let go of this golden opportunity? As such, he intervened .

 This man’s tongue was sharp and vicious, full of sarcasm . The waiters could not say anything . Although this man did not have the authority to control the matters here, he was still someone from the upper management . Nobody would dare question his authority at this time .

 Zhao Bing said in annoyance, “The dishes are about to be served . Hurry, take a seat, all you poor and lowly guests . Finish quickly and leave early, so that we can settle the bill faster as well . Who knows how much losses we are making by mingling with all of you? Baili Ying, get out of here . ”

 Normal people would be subtle with their insults, but he was blatantly ridiculing them, showing just how much he despised everybody from Brotherhood . Indeed, most of the members of the Brotherhood were commoners, and it was easy to tell just from their appearances . Zheng Ziliang and the others did consider that and decided to keep a low profile with their outfits, yet they were still looked down upon by Zhao Bing .

As for Baili Ying, she did not even dare to raise her head after being hollered at . After losing both her legs, her mother had left her as well, and she had nobody to rely on . Anyone in the family with some status would be able to push her around . Normally, it was still fine with Baili Changcheng around to protect her . However, the moment he was not around, she would be treated coldly . Sakura’s dark childhood had caused her to grow up as a shut-in .

 If it were not for these friends she had made in the game, Sakura would have never come here to be shamed . Now, without Baili Changcheng around, nobody dared to stop Zhao Bing even if he was causing a scene because of his status .

 “Poor and lowly guests? Well, you are not wrong . ” Lin Jie nodded in agreement .

 “Good that you know . If I were you, I would leave immediately to avoid disgracing myself . ” Zhao Bing said condescendingly, “People should have self-awareness . ”

 Lin Jie smiled and cleared his throat before asking, “Brothers, any of you work in the line of a reporter?”

 “I do . ” Someone called “Troubled Nightrain” raised his hand . A pair of transparent glasses sat on his squarish face, and his thick eyebrows were slightly frowning as he glared unhappily at Zhao Bing . He introduced himself, “I’m Mei Pengjun, and I write for a column on Jiang City’s night news called Sharp Eyes Sees The Facts . ”

 “You are that Troubled Nightrain who specializes in criticizing facts? Oh my God…”

 “Write it down, write it down . Let’s make him famous . ”

 Everyone was in an uproar . Troubled Nightrain was a columnist on Jiang City’s night news . When it came to criticisms, he was sharp and would always hit the nail on the head . As such, he had a large presence and was pretty influential in Jiang City .

 “I work in a bookstore, and I can post it on the publicity board . ”

“Just nice, I was looking for a new topic to write for a song…”

 “It wouldn’t be bad if my restaurant is called Trample on Jiang Bei…”

 Zhao Bing was stunned . These people were all commoners without a doubt, yet there were a few among them with hidden identities . For example, although Zheng Ziliang usually acted like a fool, if he were to truly reveal his power, even Baili Changcheng would be no match! There were also many detectives, reporters, third-rate singers, and bookstore employees . While these people did not seem as if they had a high status in society, they all held certain power . If they were to make a ruckus together, things would not end up well .

“Everyone, don’t be rash . ” Zhao Bing realized that these people would not give in so easily, but he still had to complete the orders of Baili Xuanyuan . He gave a dry laugh and said, “Personally, I don’t have any other intentions . But as an employee, I am responsible for the interest of my company . Although this dinner was arranged by the young master Changcheng, he is still young and does not know any better, which is why he made these fair-weather friends…”

 Lin Jie shook his hands and cut in . “Stop with the nonsense . To put it simply, you want us to pay with our own money, right?”

 “Erm… Forget it . I’ll be putting all of you in a spot by making you pay for the meal . Since our young master is willing to shoulder these expenses for you all, that’s fine too,” said Zhao Bing arrogantly .

“But we are poor people who are not used to using credit cards . What should we do?” Lin Jie frowned .

 “If you insist on paying, we can accept cash as well . Although modern people now have abandoned this method, we are good at counting money here in Jiang Bei Hotel,” said Zhao Bing confidently .

 Lin Jie nodded in contentment . “Give me the bill, I won’t want to put my brother in a spot . ”

 The waiter handed over the bill quickly .

 It was no surprise that Baili Changcheng had spent a large capital . This gathering was organized according to the VIP room in Jiangbei Restaurant . The last time Lin Jie had come with his family, it cost them around over 100$ each . This time, it was over 5,000$! Just a table of exotic food, seasonal seafood, and expensive wine cost over 30,000$ . And there were a total of 20 tables laid out . Along with other consumer taxes, the bill was 702,736$ .

“I’ll send people to get the money . There’s no problem, right?” asked Lin Jie .

 Zhao Bing scoffed . “Let’s see how you’ll handle this” was written all over his face . “No problem, we’ll just wait for your money then? Hehe…”

 Lin Jie nodded and made a phone call .

 “Then Baili Ying…” Zhao Bing wanted to continue targeting Sakura . But after seeing everybody’s expression as if they were out for his blood, he swallowed his words .

 On the other side, Lin Jie sat down without a care and finished drinking the free wine in the glass . He called out, “Waiter, refill . ”

The waiter was astounded . He turned and looked at Zhao Bing .

 “Refill for him!” Zhao Bing waved his hand in annoyance .

 Upon seeing this, the silent Mixed Breathless, who was in a suit, finished drinking his wine as well . “Refill . ”

“Refill . ”

 “Refill…”

 Those who watched the argument and those who participated in it were all thirsty . The light wine instantly became the best selling drink . Hundreds of people continued to drink, and the words “refill” filled up the room .

The waiters did not know whether to be happy or sad . It was great that the awkward atmosphere was finally gone, and they had something to do now . But what sort of damn script was this that they had to give out free wine to everybody all over the place?

The light wine in Jiang Bei Hotel was a drink like beer and wine, and it tasted great . These people formed small groups and began chatting away as they drank it .

 The players who played the same game quickly formed a bond and were all laughing out loud in no time . As for Zhao Bing, who was carrying out the noble mission of ruining the gathering, he was forgotten in the corner with his arms folded .

 Each minute passed, and the hall became lively . Holding the free wine, everybody greeted the members of Savage Blade before they went on to discuss the interesting things that happened for them in the game .

“Give me two plates of peanuts!” Zheng Ziliang found just drinking to be boring and called out in a faded voice .

 A waiter served the peanuts reluctantly . What was this? When the others saw this, they all began to ask for peanuts as well . Once again, the waiters scrambled around to serve them .

They had both alcohol and snacks . The most important thing about the gathering was assembled! The party actually started with just the light wine and peanuts . A few young men ran up towards Sakura, wishing her happy birthday and, at the same time, asking for her phone number, which made her laugh in joy . Bu Yi, who had been holding on to Sakura’s hands since the start, let out a smile as well .

“Refill . ” Lin Jie finished the light wine and burped lightly, before passing the glass to the waiter .

 The waiter was tearing up . This man here had drunk over 10 glasses already! In the beginning, he thought that Lin Jie had purposely shouted for everybody to drink in order to spite Zhao Bing . But now, this person must truly be thirsty .

 “Manager, the food is ready . Should we serve?” asked the waiter softly .

 “Serve my *ss! Collect the bill first before serving!” Zhao Bing raged .

 Just then, the doors flew open . A middle-aged man in a construction helmet came in breathlessly and shouted, “The money is here . ”

 The money was here! Zhao Bing was shocked . Seeing the truck behind the man, he instantly had a bad feeling .

 “Send some brothers here to help!” Following the call, sacks were carried in one after another . Each one of them weighed tens of kilograms, and they were piled up into a small mountain .

 They were all coins, 700,000$ in coins!

 In Savage Blade, I’m No . 1, I’m No . 3, and I’m No . 4 were all in the money business . They specialized in the acquisition of coin currencies, coins, and vintage coins . Many supermarkets and banks looked for them when they wanted to exchange their coins . Now, the 700,000$ in coins was the money Lin Jie asked them to bring for the bill .

“Manager, I actually really admire people like you who do things for the best interest of their companies . I believe that you will take care of this bill seriously, right? Count the money . Be careful, every coin you lose will be a great loss . ” Lin Jie scoffed .

 Count the money! You will die counting 700,000$ in coins!

 “Why are you just standing there? Count!”

 “Aren’t you all good at counting money?”

 “Hurry, count!”

 Everybody began hooting, and Zhao Bing’s expression was grim . This was bad, there was no way to back down now! How long must it take to finish counting 700,000 in coins? He gave a dry cough and said, “How can I not trust the friends of young master Baili Changcheng? Then, I’ll accept the money . It’s fine, even if there are a few missing zeros . Everybody should start eating first . What do you think?”

“Hmph, it’s fine even if there are a few missing zeros? Zhao Bing, what great authority you have . Don’t you know that you can’t be careless even if it’s a single coin? Seems like you’ve been in Huahai Jiang Nan for too long, and you’ve forgotten the basics!” With a scoff, Baili Changcheng entered with a cold expression .
