But while the four Su Mu were in deep thought, a manager recommended by Adrian to take care of daily affairs gently knocked on the door of the top-level office.
After the knock on the wooden door was affected three times, this person also opened the door respectfully and walked in.
And when he entered the office, the first sentence he uttered neatly made Su Mu and others immediately interested:
"Someone claimed to be a contemporaneous enrollee of the 13th seat of the college, and claimed that although he had not reached the level of Chinese characters, he would definitely be able to solve the problems in front of you. So his request is that he also joins the Arcanum. And get free access to various magic books."
For this person's weird suggestion, let alone the other three people are extremely surprised.
Even Lu Xi who should know this person is trying his best to search and think of each name, but it seems that he can't remember such a existence.
However, for this situation, Su Mu's decisive power is good:
"Then ask him to come over first, and we also want to know whether the problem he can solve for us is the most urgent problem for us."
Following Su Mu's explicit invitation, a young man who seemed to be about twenty-four or five years old, was also led by the manager to the office.
The office specially reserved for Su Mu and the others in the Mystery Association originally also had the function of serving as a meeting room.
Under the bright windows, a neat set of comfortable sofas and a few cases have long been placed.
However, it is extremely strange that the visitors walked into the office freely, walked to the sofa and sat down without shyness, and even poured a cup of tea on their own.
Obviously, the road to enrollment with him is clear, but he still doesn't remember who this guy is.
As a result, when the other party did not introduce herself, Lu Xi could only be deeply confused and actively asked the most basic questions:
"Excuse me... who are you?"
…
For a person who reported his origins but still hasn't been recognized, Lu Xi's question seems bound to make the other party extremely embarrassed.
Therefore, when Lu Xi said this sentence, he also carefully adjusted the emotions in the words.
But Lu Xi's move was undoubtedly the result of her thinking too much.
When Lu Xi's voice fell, the other party still didn't feel ashamed at all. Instead, he spoke in a natural tone without caring:
"You are a direct student of the dean of the academy, but I was a scumbag who was expelled from the academy halfway through. Of course you won't remember a character like me."
While talking, the other party also took out something similar to a business card from his arms.
Then he handed the card to Lu Xi very seriously, and said at the same time:
"My fellow Stanley, he is also the founder, editor-in-chief, reporter, and informant of the "Stanley Express". He is also a spellcaster who has been admitted to the Academy of Magic, and..."
When Stanley finally took out this "business card", he also revealed his name and profession little by little.
Even before he could finish speaking completely, Aviana was already amazed:
"You are the so-called industry malignant tumor... The rogue founder of the "Stanley Express", Stanley, who is known as the most poisonous tongue in the Federation?"
But for Aviana's surprise, Stanley seemed to hear no mockery at all, but rather some kind of praise from the heart, and he admitted these names without hesitation.
And there is nothing uncomfortable, continue to add:
"In addition to the inductive name of the industry malignant tumor, they actually call me the next three indiscriminate editors, shameless Stanley, industry disruptors, despicable gimmick merchants, etc..."
"If you say which journal has the worst reputation in the industry in the entire federation, then I am afraid it is the "Stanley Express" that I have just had to change its name to."
…
Facing Stanley's completely shameless boast, not to mention that Aviana, who was in the same company, wanted to curse, even Lu Xi and Su Tong were amazed at his face.
Only Su Mu, who is particularly familiar with this "shameless", is still aware of some strangeness in it after all:
An extremely niche journal, not only does not attract cold reception from outside the industry, but from rejection and abuse within the industry.
This may not only represent the incompetence of this journal, but it also shows the amazing power of this journal to declare war, as well as the shocking and horrifying content beyond imagination.
"In other words, in fact, the sales of "Stanley Express" far exceeded expectations, and it was even impossible to become a best seller because of insufficient printing capacity. And the reason why you are excluded by the industry is not because the content of the newspaper is not good enough, but only because you are not moving at all. Just make an act of'crossing the boundary'."
As Su Mu's words sounded, Stanley, who was still looking for approval, finally focused his eyes on Su Mu's face.
It was a look that seemed extremely sharp, but in fact it was extremely treacherous.
At the same time, it's also a kind of look that is indifferent to tearing through the conventions, exclusive to smart people.
There is no doubt that when Su Mu's words fell, Stanley finally found the true meaning of his coming here.
What he was trying to find was a boss who was as keen as Su Mu.
And it was not long before Su Mu’s words fell, Aviana had not had time to refute Su Mu’s "fallacy", but Su Mu said again without stopping:
"But I still need your own proof to prove that you really understand our current plight. If you can't prove it right away, you know exactly and can solve all of this. Then even if you are indeed a wizard looking for another way, I will There is no reason for you to join the Arcanum."
"After all, the mystery of the future... is probably the huge ** you really covet!"
…
Su Mu saw through his true purpose at a glance, Stanley did not show the slightest panic, but slowly said more confidently and confidently:
"First of all, your current biggest dilemma is that even though you have allowed the Arcanum to stand at the intersection of the clouds, this is only a temporary touch based on your respective reputations. After all, the federal government will take over the Arcanum after three years. Maintaining the operation of the Arcanum for the first three years will inevitably cost a lot of money."
"So your first difficulty is actually you, who seem to be incomparably noble, even younger than I am... and even more short of money."
After Stanley talked about this, he had already ignored the highest-ranking Lu Zhi on the bright side.
Instead, he stared sharply at Su Mu's eyes, and then said again:
"Secondly, although all of you here are dragons and phoenixes among people, in terms of influence on this world, none of them can be compared to people like me. But your real problem is that you have never cared only about strength and Power, but never cared about money that is not so important to you."
"So, in the final analysis, none of you can make money, and you have never even thought about how to make money. And what you need most now is someone who not only knows how to make money, but also absolutely cannot covet your authority. Because there is only Such a person can serve you without bringing you the slightest threat."
"Then speaking...Is the kind of person you really need, me who is burdened with a huge infamy and can always make unexpected moves?"
