"Is this the new bed you gave me?" Xuehua looked at the pile of gold coins on the ground, her thin eyebrows furrowed, and she tilted her head, seemingly distressed, "However, I don't like lying on the gold coins. Go to bed."
Sui Xiong was shocked. In his impression, regardless of the stories on earth or the legends of this world, dragons loved to sleep on piles of gold coins. Even if there are not enough gold coins, it is not a bad idea to mix silver coins and copper coins. If conditions permit, it would be better to add some jewelry, magic props, etc. to the gold coin pile. And judging from Hae's reaction, it's indeed true - so why doesn't Snowflake like it
Seeing his surprise, Xuehua sighed and explained: "I don't like to show my true identity. Unless it is absolutely necessary, even when I rest, I sleep as a human being - don't you? Did you notice? Both Frost and Hail's bedrooms are surprisingly large, but my room is the size of an ordinary human being."
Sui Xiong was stunned for a moment and asked: "Why don't you like gold coins? Aren't dragons supposed to like shiny things?"
"...That's a crow you're talking about!"
"Don't the dragons like it?"
Xuehua sighed: "Prejudice is really terrible!"
"We dragons, as far as culture is concerned, value collecting wealth. The more wealth you can collect, the more capable you are, and the more respected and worshiped you will be by your fellow tribesmen. Over time, many dragons have also adopted this culture. It turned into my own hobby - for example, this is the case with Hailun." She explained, "However, I don't agree with this culture at all! On the contrary, I hate meaningless collecting behavior, and I hate doing random things just to gain wealth. ! Of course I also like wealth, but what I like is the wealth I get through my business or labor."
Sui Xiong nodded repeatedly, deeply convinced.
"You have made a lot of money and want to help us improve our living environment. I thank you for your kindness - but no need." Xuehua smiled and turned to leave, "Also, help me clean up the room, all over the floor. Gold coins, very inconvenient.”
Sui Xiong curled his lips, cast a spell to collect the gold coins, and cleaned them up at the same time.
"I have a god to help you clean up, and you are really respectable..."
The next day, he found Shuang again. This time he was more cautious and asked first.
"You want to give me a lot of gold coins to make a bed?" Shuang tilted her head, looked at the jellyfish floating in front of her like a fool, shook her head and sighed.
"Hey! What's your attitude!"
"It's nothing, you guys are always so out of place!" Shuang shrugged, looking very innocent, "Do you think I like to show my true form and sleep in a pile of gold coins?"
"...Isn't this because you are so poor that you don't have a pile of gold coins to make a bed?"
Shuang couldn't help but get angry and said angrily: "I'm rich!"
"I understand, bean bags are also solid food, and a dollar is money."
Shuang was so angry that she was shaking all over. She felt that chatting with this bastard jellyfish was her biggest mistake today, so she turned around and left.
"Hey, you haven't said yet whether you want a gold coin bed!" Sui Xiong shouted.
"I'll leave it to make a coffin for you!" Shuang said without looking back.
Sui Xiong watched him fly away and sighed deeply.
"These days, there are still people who don't give money to others..."
He thought for a while and simply found Rhodes.
"You said you plan to invest the money from the life-extending potion in the construction of the church?" Rhodes pondered for a moment and asked, "Although I have estimated it privately, how much money will it cost?"
Sui Xiong told him a number.
Rhodes didn't look very excited or surprised. He thought seriously for a while and said with some regret: "I'm sorry, our church's current manpower has reached its limit. Although we have such an amazing amount of wealth, I really want to I don’t see any way to spend it in a short time..."
Sui Xiong walked away helplessly, muttering as he walked: "What kind of world is this! There is no place to spend money... If on earth, there was so much money... I would go to Beijing's Third Ring Road to buy a house. I would buy several houses. I would live there. One set, my parents live in one, my wife lives in another, and the rest is used to pile up clutter!"
"...No, I don't even have a girlfriend, how can I have a wife!"
He sighed deeply and felt the so-called "malice of the world" again.
When poor people have money, they will inevitably want to play. Especially since he is not just rich now, he is very rich!
Chinese people often use the phrase "wealthy to rival the country" to describe a person who is rich. Most of the top local tycoons on the planet are also the rulers of some backward countries, guys who turn national assets into personal wealth—for example, rich locals who sell stones. But as far as Sui Xiong knew, there seemed to be no individuals who were truly "rich enough to rival the country."
But he is now.
How much money does he have now? It's hard to estimate. Anyway, I estimate conservatively that if you pick any one of the countries on the main plane, from the central to the local governments, the total treasury at each level will probably not be as large as his.
Now his question is, how to spend this money
The giant jellyfish sat on the crown of a big tree, deep in thought.
"How about building a bank? I remember that building a bank seems to require a lot of money... I can run the deposit business, lend money, and mint coins... "
"It doesn't seem to work. This is trying to steal business from the God of Wealth. Although that guy is a bit greedy for wealth, he still has a good relationship with me. He wants to ruin His business. It's not kind!"
"Going to do scientific research again? Isn't it said that scientific research is the most expensive!"
"... It doesn't seem possible. We need manpower to do scientific research. Where can I get the manpower to do this? Now the Lord of Mysteries has such a bad relationship with me. Many spellcasters who originally cooperated have cut off contact with the church. Manpower is already lacking. insufficient."
"Use it to invest in the construction of Gars City?"
"Everything in Gars City is currently on track, and it seems that there is no need for a large amount of wealth..."
He thought and thought and thought, until his tentacles hurt from thinking about it, and then he suddenly had an idea and came up with a good idea.
"I'm going to hold the world's best martial arts tournament! Well, that's the name! Then, I'll call on everyone who wants to make a fortune and has confidence in their abilities to participate. If you win a fight, you'll get a bonus, and if you lose, you'll also have to work hard. Fee. The person who wins the championship in the end will receive a large sum of money! And a medal for the 'Champion of the No. 1 Martial Arts Tournament in the World'!"
The more he thought about it, the more he felt that this method was reliable. Although it was not in line with the original intention of "spending money", it was at least interesting.
Interesting, that’s fine!
So the matter was settled. Sui Xiong mobilized the power of the entire Void Mask Church and carried out extensive publicity with the help of teleportation arrays leading to the capitals of various countries in the main plane.
"Do you want the whole world to know your name?"
"Want to prove your strength?"
“Want to get rich overnight?”
"Then come to Mask of the Void Amusement Park and participate in the world's best martial arts competition!"
Promotional words like this quickly spread throughout the major cities in the main plane, and then gradually became known to everyone in the countryside.
Many adventurers come to Masked Void Amusement Park from all directions. Some of them have special skills and want to become famous all over the world. Some are ambitious and want to compete with the strong ones from all over the world. , exploring the road to a higher realm; some are just for the championship bonus, because they need money; others are more pragmatic, just to earn a stable appearance fee; the most exaggerated are some characters who are out of touch and love to play Young people are making trouble, they just want to use the teleportation array for free and go to the Mask of the Void amusement park to see the world.
Near the playground, Sui Xiong had already prepared a huge competition ground. More than a dozen independent arenas, a large number of spectator seats, and temporary residences densely packed like pigeon cages not only provided the contestants with basic living security, but also allowed them to see the ability and confidence of the Church of the Mask of the Void.
According to regulations, the registration period is three months in total. When the time expired, according to statistics, more than 10,000 people came to compete, and the number of people who came to watch the excitement was several times that number.
If Sui Xiong had not made preparations in advance and not only built a large number of pigeon-cage-style residences, but also prepared a large amount of food, just the food and accommodation for these tens of thousands of people would be overwhelming.
But even if he had prepared in advance, hosting such an astonishing number of guests at once had almost reached the limit of the Void Mask Playground's reception capacity.
Fortunately, Sui Xiong was rich now. He was very rich. He spent a lot of money and hired a large number of temporary workers. Together with the previous material reserves, he managed to hold the situation together.
After holding on to the situation, the next step is to make a profit. Of course, these people who come to watch the excitement are not just here to watch the competition. Now that they are at the amusement park, they inevitably want to eat, drink, and play. For a time, all the amusement projects in the amusement park were overcrowded, and even the dungeon, which was originally deserted and deserted, became lively. A team of adventurers composed of rookies who knew nothing at all seemed to have no head in the dungeon. They were scurrying around like flies, encountering monsters and traps from time to time, and bursting out with violent screams.
The staff of the maze are busy now. They are constantly shuttling through the maze, lending a helping hand to adventurers who are in trouble and in a panic, ensuring that these rookies who know nothing are safe and safe, and they are still in danger when necessary. calm their emotions and take them to a safe area to rest.
There is no distinction between day and night in the maze. It is often busy in a rush. Not to mention the rookies who lack exercise, even the guides who are experienced adventurers are exhausted.
But it was amid such noise, busyness and exhaustion that the reputation of Masked Void Amusement Park was finally fully established. Whether it is a gold-selling cave for eating, drinking and having fun, a tourist attraction for relaxation and entertainment, or a good place to experience the life of an adventurer, in short, countless people have experienced the fun of this amusement park, which has also increased the revenue of the amusement park. Climb up.
Liv, who complained constantly at the beginning, stopped complaining now. On the contrary, she enjoyed the busy feeling now.
Amidst all this noise and busyness, the First World’s Best Martial Arts Tournament finally kicked off...
