Age of Empires From Scratch - Chapter 547

[Chapter 544: Wealth Pill]

David felt that the name of Wang Zhenzhen’s building was really appropriate.

It really deserves to be called Tianxiahui. Does it mean to gather all the important characters together?

Zhou Xingxing moved quickly. After asking the price, he immediately went to talk to Wang Zhenzhen about moving in. At the same time, he found Cao Dahua and agreed to rent an apartment together.

Cao Dahua didn’t want to agree. He felt that the rent of Tianxiahui was too high. He was an old man alone, so why couldn’t he live anywhere?

The cheap apartment was good.

But Zhou Xingxing had just saved him not long ago, so he was embarrassed to refuse. He agreed to share the rent with Zhou Xingxing under half-force.

Both of them were under investigation recently. There was nothing to do, so they concentrated on moving. It was estimated that they would be able to move in in a few days.

David mainly went to Manhan Building to watch the excitement during these few days.

The food showdown between Manhan Building and Chaofan Group was still very exciting. There were piles of dishes that could only be seen in pictures before, but now they were in front of them.

Especially the three hard dishes as competition items: bear paws, elephant trunks, and monkey brains.

To be honest, David was most curious about the “One Palm of Heaven and Earth” made by Master Liao Jie. He wondered if Sophia had learned this dish.

He noticed that as most of the staff of Manhanlou were bought off by Chaofan Group, Ou Zhaofeng became more sincere towards Sophia who stayed to support him. He

originally just wanted to fool around, but now he began to have the idea of teaching sincerely.

After all, people’s true nature is revealed in times of crisis!

A group of old friends who had followed him for many years betrayed him and watched him almost die of a heart attack; on the contrary, Sophia and Zhao Gangsheng, two “outsiders”, called an ambulance and helped take care of himself, which made Ou Zhaofeng quite emotional.

Now, in this competition that determines the final ownership of Manhanlou, Sophia and Zhao Gangsheng participated as members of Manhanlou. During the preparation, Ou Zhaofeng also gave them various instructions and taught them as his own disciples.

Now, basically, Ou Zhaofeng would answer whatever Sophia asked. Even if Ou Zhaofeng complained about Sophia’s high aspirations and her irrelevant thoughts, he would still explain the key points and precautions clearly after complaining.

For fear that Sophia would not remember, he would ask several times repeatedly to make sure that Sophia remembered everything. Only then would he happily stroll away with hot tea – because of Sophia’s secret help, he recovered better and did not need to sit in a wheelchair.

Sophia told David about all these things, and David said: “Your bowl of apprenticeship tea was worth it.”

After watching the delicious food for three days, even Cheng Le’er, who usually pays attention to diet and eats very little, was greedy: “It looks delicious!”

Originally, she had no interest in bear paws, elephant trunks, monkey brains and other things.

But after learning that the last dish of raw monkey brains in Manhanlou was made of tofu, she suddenly wanted to taste it herself.

“There’s a chance!”

In the end, this Man Han Banquet showdown ended with Man Han Lou winning. Huang Rong of Chaofan Group calculated and calculated, and in the end, he not only lost the game, but also lost his reputation – at the last moment, he tried to kill the opponent by reporting Man Han Lou for harming and eating protected animals.

As a result, Man Han Lou predicted in advance and replaced the real monkey brain with tofu. Not only did it not violate the rules and laws, but it also won unanimous praise from several judges.

Huang Rong lost money and lost people. After this battle, his reputation in the Hong Kong food industry was completely ruined.

Not to mention the loss of tens of millions of cash. It is unknown how long it will take to climb out of this pit.

But no one sympathized with him. He was the one who started the matter, not to mention all kinds of shady tricks during the period: deliberately injuring Long Kunbao’s hand before the game, secretly destroying Man Han Lou’s kitchen utensils in the second duel, etc.

Everyone is happy that such a guy lost.

If he won… That’s impossible. David is here, Huang Rong can’t win.

David could have done it secretly, adding something extra to his dishes, to ensure that when the judges ate them, they would think that what they ate was actually battery water mixed with monkey urine…

David didn’t think there was anything wrong with his approach. He always had this attitude: if everyone played by the rules, he would play by the rules too. But if someone didn’t intend to follow the rules, David would definitely be more ruthless than the other person.

You, Huang Rong, at most hurt people, but David would wipe out the entire Chaofan Group from this world.

Huang Rong should be glad that he didn’t win, otherwise what awaited him would definitely not be the peak of his life, but an endless abyss.

Following Sophia to celebrate the victory of Manhanlou, Sophia rushed over and hugged David and nibbled him, and even hugged Cheng Le’er and kissed her on the face twice, which scared Cheng Le’er.

Then he saw Sophia hugging Cheng Xiaoxi and kissing her a few times, and he just thought Sophia was too happy, so he didn’t think too much.

At most, he complained in his heart: “Doesn’t this girl have any defense against me?”

If David knew what Cheng Le’er was thinking, he would definitely tell her: “Not only is there no defense, but she is even very welcome!”

But Cheng Le’er would never think about it, and she couldn’t ask David such a question, so she could only think about it herself.

After watching the food showdown between Manhanlou and Chaofan Group, the next itinerary was to attend the graduation ceremony of the Queen of War.

After a long period of devilish training, the trainees of the Queen of War have been trained to become excellent urban special operations forces. Like the Flying Tigers, they can perform various tasks such as urban counter-terrorism, hostage rescue, and VIP protection.

Next, the Queen of War will become one of the trump cards of the Hong Kong police, just like the Flying Tigers.

Hu Huishan, as the chief instructor of the Queen of War, gave a speech. In the future, she will be the supervisor of the Queen of War.

After a series of processes are over, all the Queen of War members took photos together, and it was free time.

David was watching the fun quietly, but when the free time started, Moon and Karen, who had met him at the Elite Center, came around.

They noticed David when he was on the stage, and thought he came for Instructor Hu, but they didn’t expect that there was a woman beside him.

Where did this woman come from?

Unfortunately, most of the female heroes were unfamiliar with David, only Moon and Karen were slightly familiar with David, and David had even been to Moon’s house as a guest.

So, the task of probing the enemy’s intelligence was given to Moon.

“Congratulations.”

“Thank you.” Moon showed his signature sweet smile, and after greeting David, he suddenly mentioned that he might not stay at the female heroes for too long.

“Oh? Why?”

“The Police Department is going to set up a department specifically for special matters, and I want to transfer to join this new department.” Moon explained in a low voice. In fact, it was the Police Department who sent someone to contact her first and invited her.

“Is that so!”

“Karen may go with me.”

However, they were not in a hurry to explain the situation to the other friends of the female heroes. It would take some time to set up the new department, and her transfer would be put off even further.

Even whether the new department can be formally established is still uncertain. It is not too late to talk about it after everything is determined.

After a brief chat, Moon En turned the topic to David and Cheng Le’er. They, the female boss, will have many celebrations in the future. Ask David if he has time to participate?

“I may go to sea in the next few days.”

“Go to sea?”

“Well, there is a cruise ship that will arrive in Hong Kong soon. I will go on the cruise with a few friends for a few days.” David only remembered at this time that he had never asked what the name of the cruise ship was: “What is the name of the cruise ship?”

“Fugui Maru.”

“Oh, Fugui Maru! I saw it in the newspaper.” Moon En looked suddenly enlightened. Although he did not ask, he also knew that this person named Cheng Le’er was probably a rich girl.

The Fugui Maru is a luxury charity cruise ship that only entertains specific people. Ordinary people don’t have the opportunity to go on it.

After chatting for a while, Moon En took the intelligence he had collected back to report to his partners.

David found Hu Huishan who was talking to Director Zhang, and said hello to Uncle Biao by the way.

Speaking of which, the new department was also suggested by Uncle Biao. Is he also responsible for its management?

“When the new department is established, Mr. Glamorgan, as a consultant, must be present.”

“If nothing unexpected happens, I will be there.”

David simply asked about the situation of the new department, and then learned that the Director Hu, who he had met not long ago, that is, Superintendent Hu, would be appointed as the head of the new department.

Inspector He, Wu Ying and Yang Liqing under his command will be transferred to the new department to help him, and then elites will be selected from various departments to form a special force to deal with special affairs, that is, all kinds of supernatural events caused by demons and ghosts.

However, it is said that the transfer is not very smooth. For example, Wu Ying directly expressed that he would rather go undercover in the gang than to this newly formed special force.

“By the way, I just heard you chatting with that little girl, saying that you would go to the sea on the Fugui Pill in a few days?” “

…” David raised his eyes slightly. He always felt that there should be a huge golden exclamation mark above Director Zhang’s head at this time.

If he guessed correctly, the next step is to issue him a new task, right?

“Is there any problem on the Fugui Maru?”

“Oh, we just received some intelligence, but there is no evidence now, so it is not easy for us police to take action directly.” According to Director Zhang, they can only arrange someone to go up and check to confirm whether the intelligence is true?

In addition, the situation of the Fugui Maru is special, and the police cannot arrange too many people. In the end, only one person was sent on board.

“What Director Zhang means is…”

“When necessary, I hope you can lend a hand to our people.”

David looked at Hu Huishan, wondering if the police had sent Hu Huishan out again? As a result, Hu Huishan shook her head and said that she would be on standby at the rear this time.

Once the authenticity of the intelligence is confirmed, she will bring all the Amazons to provide support.

As for the policeman in charge of this investigation, his name is Cheng Xiaodong.
