Chapter 193: Handling It
“We want to exchange the money in our passbooks for points!”
“We want points!”
“Why can points be networked? If points can be networked, then mobile phones can access the internet. The Pet Beast Center must fix the network.”
·······
The troublemakers are basically people without jobs.
People with jobs wouldn’t dare cause trouble. It’s a critical time now; if they lose their jobs, they’re finished.
Points cannot be transferred. These people who used to do small businesses can’t do business now.
Without the network, how can we collect payments and make payments?
Their livelihoods are cut off.
“What are you shouting about? If you keep shouting, you’ll all be fined ten points. If you don’t have enough points, you’ll all be kicked out.”
Liu Ming said coldly to the crowd.
Liu Ming held a black card reader in his hand.
He felt that Song Tiantian had given him such a difficult task, and he had to do it well.
Moreover, he had already spent most of the money in his account long ago. He knew the power of points early on and had been trying his best to save money to buy Cold Fragrance Number Four.
Because he saw the description of Cold Fragrance Number Four, stating that even if one was parasitized by a Ghost, taking this would make them safe and sound. Furthermore, Cold Fragrance Number Four could also enhance mental power and physique, and many people who drank Cold Fragrance Number Four had achieved a Breakthrough.
Unfortunately, at the beginning, Cold Fragrance Number Four was only fifty points on special offer, but he couldn’t afford it.
By the time he had fifty points, Cold Fragrance Number Four was no longer on special offer.
So he chose to take a gamble and entered the Lottery, but the Lottery was useless. He didn’t win Cold Fragrance Number Four, only a few Beast Foods.
Fortunately, Beast Food is also a hot commodity, so he didn’t lose out.
But Song Tiantian said that if he could handle this matter well, she would give him fifty points.
After all, their family had also suffered heavy losses. His parents’ earnings were all deposited in the bank.
The Pet Beast Center also had a bank branch.
These people weren’t surrounding that bank but were coming to the Pet Beast Center.
Song Tiantian had said that the Pet Beast Center’s assets, worth tens of billions, were all gone. The Pet Beast Center was also a victim.
The Pet Beast Center is also very poor now. These people still want the Pet Beast Center to compensate them for their losses. The problem is that the Pet Beast Center isn’t charging fees and still has to pay salaries to so many Security Guards to protect their safety. They don’t show gratitude and are causing trouble.
Liu Ming used to be an ordinary person from the lower class and didn’t think that much.
But he is different now; he is considered part of the Management. Although the Pet Beast Center isn’t his, he is aware of the daily Expenses of the Pet Beast Center. He knows how cheap the Prices are at the Pet Beast Center and how expensive the current wholesale prices are.
He had also been invaded by a Ghost, and Song Tiantian didn’t dislike him and was willing to use him.
Those Relatives from the Song Family also ostracized him.
Liu Ming finally had some Power. This was the first time Song Tiantian had given him such important responsibility, but these people below didn’t listen to him and treated his words as nothing.
His anger was immense.
Someone proactively stepped forward, patted Liu Ming’s shoulder, and tried to get close to him, saying, “Brother Liu, you’re a relative of Boss Song. Please put in a good word for us. We wouldn’t be like this if we weren’t truly in dire straits.”
“Yes! All our money is in the bank. With the network gone, we don’t even have money for supplies.”
Liu Ming pushed the person in front of him away and said sternly to the crowd, “Didn’t I tell you long ago that money is becoming less and less valuable? Outside, Vegetables are five thousand yuan a pound. You people aren’t thinking about exchanging your money for Energy Ore or more valuable Pet Beast Food. If you keep it, it will become worthless.
You refuse to listen to advice, right? You refuse to leave, right? Each person will have ten points deducted. Take out your Identity Tokens. Anyone without an Identity Token will be expelled from the Pet Beast Center.
Anyone with negative points will also be expelled from the Pet Beast Center.
From now on, to enter the Pet Beast Center, you must pay a ten-point city entry fee.
The Pet Beast Center, with its cheap Supplies and safe, comfortable Environment, all requires money to maintain. The Pet Beast Center’s billions of yuan were also all online. Qingshan City next door has fallen. The Meteor Shower is global, and the entire Flower Country has suffered. Even if the network were up and money could be used, there would be nowhere to spend it or buy supplies.
Liu Ming had his subordinates control those who were causing trouble.
Anyone who did not voluntarily produce their Identity Token would be treated as someone without one.
They would all be kicked out. Even if these people stayed at the Pet Beast Center, they would only waste Grain.
So it was better to kick them all out.
These people didn’t expect the Pet Beast Center to actually take action and seemed serious about kicking them out.
They all summoned their Pet Beasts, intending to protest.
Liu Ming was only a One-star Beast Tamer and had never achieved a Breakthrough. Although he drank Cold Fragrance Number Two, not everyone who drank it could achieve a Breakthrough.
He just wanted to complete this Mission so he could drink Cold Fragrance Number Four and achieve a Breakthrough.
Liu Ming’s subordinates were also carefully selected by him; he believed they could be controlled and would obey him.
This batch of people was very weak. Among these troublemakers, there were a few Two-star Beast Tamers.
Three-star Beast Tamers were all on the City Wall making money. Most Two-star Beast Tamers were also making money because reaching Two-star Beast Tamer met the standard for entering the Security Department, allowing direct recruitment.
The remaining people, while not exceptionally strong, were not weak either.
Liu Ming had been to the City Wall, but facing Fierce Beasts directly, he performed poorly and barely dared to engage, only picking off weakened enemies.
He was usually quite detested.
Otherwise, Song Tiantian wouldn’t have found a way to transfer him here and given him such generous rewards.
However, it was clear that Liu Ming’s performance was terrible.
He was knocked down with one punch, and his Pet Beast was also suppressed by the Pet Beasts of the troublemakers.
Although he had been to a Secret Realm with Song Tiantian, and Song Tiantian had cultivated him well, his progress was not significant.
Song Tiantian had never closed the Pet Beast Arena, and all the Security Guards had gone to defend the City Wall.
This place became empty. The remaining people in the city were cautious of danger, so they usually went to the Pet Beast Arena to train.
So, not everyone who was idle was useless.
Punch after punch, Liu Ming felt his dignity being crushed.
He felt Song Tiantian was being unreasonable, why didn’t she assign him some powerful Beast Tamers as subordinates?
“Stop! You dare to maliciously assault an Enforcer of the Pet Beast Center. You will all be deducted twenty points. Anyone who does not present their Identity Token will be considered a dark force. To maintain the safety of the Pet Beast Center, you will all be expelled.”
Song Jun had already been promoted to a Two-star Beast Tamer by this time. He was very intelligent and had found a few good Buddies to help him.
Song Tiantian had initially asked Song Jing to handle this matter, but Song Jing refused.
Then Song Tiantian approached Liu Ming.
