Just call me Thor - Chapter 392

Chapter 392: Did you see the half box of fries I left here earlier?
Investing in Afterskin, the Baggins family went bankrupt!

Everyone mourned in silence for a few seconds over the Baggins family’s misfortune.

Mike put down the tablet, looked at Bilbo, and asked curiously,

“You said earlier that you could more than double the income of the private space, how?”

Mike’s current assets were astonishingly large.

In addition to the Lord merits in his hands,

Mysterious Mine, Mushroom Forest, Ice Field….

The specialties from these places could be sold for a lot of money in the Mystic Market.

However, Mike had been busy challenging the Tower of Truth, and for a while, he really couldn’t spare the time to manage the precious “specialties” in his own backyard!

For Mike, these things would be his sooner or later, there was no need to rush.

Facing Mike’s question, Butler Bilbo was well prepared and said confidently,

“Boss, the first thing we need to do is to reduce production and scale down!”

“Oh?”

Hearing this, many people showed surprised expressions.

The werewolf Dorian was even more confused, wondering if Bilbo had misspoken.

They were clearly trying to earn more money, why reduce production?

Vladimir burst out laughing after hearing Bilbo’s words,

“Another idiot.”

After cursing, Vladimir buried his head and continued to eat his chicken legs.

Dracula, hearing Vladimir’s words, pondered for a moment and quickly understood.

Mike smiled faintly, his right index finger tapping rhythmically on the back of his left hand,

“Go on.”

Fool, who was at the side, also looked at Bilbo with interest.

She knew Thor’s current expression all too well!

It meant that Bilbo’s proposal had already displeased Thor a little.

Butler Bilbo sensed something unusual in the air and said with a stiff smile,

“Things are worth more when they are rare. Earning money is not about digging more ore. Nowadays, with the Abyssal Plane, the human race can be self-sufficient in ores below S-level. But for SS-level and SSS-level ores, only the Mysterious Mine can provide a stable supply on a large scale. As long as we reduce the production scale to one-tenth, the price can increase by more than twenty times…”

The more Butler Bilbo spoke, the softer his voice became, and finally, he couldn’t go on.

Because he saw that his boss’s expression had obviously turned cold.

Swallowing his saliva, Bilbo asked bravely,

“Boss, did I… say something wrong?”

“No, you’re right. If it’s just business, that’s indeed how it should be done. But some things… are not business.”

If they really did as Bilbo said, Mike’s income would indeed skyrocket.

The problem was, without a large supply of cheap, high-quality ore at the front line, the battles wouldn’t be so easy to fight.

Mike sighed and looked at Bilbo, asking,

“When you were working at the Mystic Market, did you do business this way too?”

“No.”

Bilbo shook his head and answered honestly,

“The owner of the Mystic Market… is not short of money.”

The Mystic Market had two owners.

The big boss, Apollo, and the small boss, Foreskin, were both loaded.

Thinking of this, Bilbo asked curiously, “Don’t tell me you’re not short of money either?”

“Bullshit! I’m very short of money.”

Mike was anxious, why was this guy so slow!

“What’s this?”

Mike took out half a copper coin, showed it to Bilbo, and taught, “The other day, I was strolling around the private space, and there was half a copper coin on the ground, I even picked that up. Remember, I’m very short of money!”

Hearing this, Fool snorted coldly and got up to leave.

Mike continued to teach Bilbo, “A gentleman loves money, but he gets it in a proper way. The method you mentioned can indeed earn money,but it will leave people cold.”

Mike said earnestly,

“In the end, both sides of the transaction will only drift further and further apart, leaving only a relationship of money.”

Bilbo pondered.

What Thor said seemed to make sense!

Mike didn’t continue nagging, Bilbo was new here, it was normal for him not to understand some things.

“After you’ve been here for a while, you’ll naturally know what you can do and what you can’t.”

Mike instructed,

“Put aside the matter of increasing profits for now, change your way of thinking. Think about how to expand production, produce ore more scientifically and efficiently, and increase productivity. Add people if you need to, add equipment if you need to, the Abyss is not peaceful recently, there is a large shortage of ore, make this your top priority.”

Bilbo nodded quickly, “Understood!”

According to Thor’s way,

The more they produced, the lower the price of the ore, and the less they might earn!

However, since the boss had said so, he, as the butler, would just follow his instructions.

In the past, when the Baggins family was at its peak in the Core City of Truth, Bilbo was also the heir to the family.

Times had changed, the Baggins family had fallen, and Bilbo had followed Afterskin for a hundred years.

He had never given up on reviving the Baggins family.

The problem was, Bilbo had never figured out one thing.

How did the wealthy Baggins family disappear just like that?

Foreskin knew the answer but wouldn’t tell him.

Thor’s words today, however, gave Bilbo food for thought.

After leaving Bilbo, Mike went to find the White Wolf King.

Due to swallowing the sun before, the White Wolf King’s appearance was now plated with a layer of golden light, ready to break through to level 990 at any time.

Within the Tower of Truth, all beings above level 990 had to enter the Temple of Truth.

“Don’t worry, I have a few friends in the Temple of Truth too!”

Fire God, Pecker, Mike had dealt with them all.

Before leaving, Mike advised, “Stay away from Poseidon, that guy is full of tricks.”

The White Wolf King shook his head wryly,

“Whether I can break through or not is another matter, the current Wolf Alpha… is too strong.”

Previously, outside Brookfield Town, the current Wolf Alpha had killed the wilderness wolf with a single flail from afar, leaving a deep psychological shadow on the White Wolf King.

Mike patted his chest and assured,

“Don’t worry, I’ve got your back!”

The White Wolf King was skeptical and didn’t say much.

The golden light on his body spread out as he began to attempt to break through to level 990.

And one of the most important links: the recognition of the current Wolf Alpha!

Thinking of this, the White Wolf King’s heart was filled with trepidation.

…

In the Wolf’s Den.

Maxen was drinking alone.

Apollo had come and gone, taking 0.9% of his income and casually throwing the [Endless Infernal Fire] to him.

As soon as Maxen opened his mouth, a puff of black smoke came out.

He was so unlucky!

Just as Maxen was feeling down,

The blood-colored Flail he had placed beside him suddenly flickered.

“A werewolf wants to break through to level 990?!”

A smile appeared on Maxen’s face.

This time, his luck had finally turned, it was his turn to make money!

Want to reach level 990?

Sure!

But you have to pay the toll!

Even if the Ultimate Lord came today, they couldn’t stop Maxen!

This money, he was going to get it!

The confident Maxen casually pressed his hand on the Flail,

A White Wolf phantom appeared in front of Maxen.

Before Maxen could even speak,

From the other side of the White Wolf phantom came Maxen’s familiar voice,

“Hey hey hey, Stone, what are you doing?”

“Can you hear me? I have a win-win deal for us…”

Maxen: ???

Thor was here too?!

Wasn’t he miserable enough today?

“You have received the Alpha’s approval, the gate to the Temple of Truth is open to you!”

The White Wolf King quickly received the Wolf Alpha’s approval.

As if disgusted, he was kicked into the Temple of Truth.

A golden archway phantom slowly disappeared before Mike’s eyes.

Looking at the gate of the Temple of Truth, Mike thought of something.

“Did you see the half box of fries I left here earlier?”

Vladimir was stunned, when did the master eat fries?

Excuse me, is it too late to plant potatoes now?

In view of Vladimir’s outstanding performance on the 30th floor, Mike generously said that it was fine if the fries were gone, but your half-year bonus was canceled.

Vladimir was used to Thor’s behavior.

Deduct as much as you want.

Anyway, he had never received a single penny.
