Chapter 74 – Devil

Home/ Devil / Chapter 74

Seeing the boss laughing and talking on the phone, Laura always felt a little terrified.

She is now extremely curious about what her boss is saying on the phone, especially about the identity of the person on the other end of the phone.

Unfortunately, she couldn’t even understand a word of the language the boss was currently using. However, in the end, she understood the pronunciation of “Jacob” and realized that the boss might be talking to someone about the ring.

After absorbing the energy in the ring, the boss gave the ring to someone else. He packed it himself in a beautiful box and tied it with a beautiful ribbon. She doesn’t know who he gave it to. Laura was a little curious, but she didn’t dare to ask the boss rashly.

She clearly knew what can be said and what cannot be said.

Hanging up the phone with a smile, Ah Jin looked at it for a while, just now when Ji Huan just showed the bracelet on Hei Dan’s wrist, without Ji Huan knowing, he took a photo of the little demon.

With a dribbling and flat egg like appearance, there was also a familiar looking scarf on his body, um…

That’s really interesting~

So another photo was added to Ah Jin’s photo album.

He doesn’t have the habit of taking pictures, and the photo album on his mobile phone is empty except for sample photos. Whether it was the mobile phone when he was in the devil world, or the lower world that he was previously in.

This time the phone should’ve been the same, but unexpectedly, there are many more photos in it now.

The result of that little demon named Hei Dan’s random clicking that day was that Ah Jin’s mobile phone suddenly received a lot of photos. There are selfies of a demon with horns in various poses, photos of a small demon with a big black face, and photos of Ji Huan. But his photos must’ve been secretly taken by someone else while he was hunting, cleaning the floor, or taking a bath…

Ah Jin felt as if he had seen another side of this mature young man.

Inexplicably, he took the initiative to send a video invitation and then, when talking to the other party again, he thought that there should be no topic left between the two of them to talk about. This was probably the last call, but surprisingly, he didn’t dislike talking to the other party and they had a very pleasant conversation.

And then today, it was still very pleasant.

Smiling, he clicked through the photos in the album, and a smile kept hanging at the corner of Ah Jin’s mouth.

Laura felt goosebumps all over her body!

The black-haired man on the sofa turned off his mobile phone, and suddenly glanced up at the red-haired subordinate:

“I guess, you’re wondering who I was talking to just now, aren’t you?”

Laura nodded honestly.

“Want to know?” The black-haired man tilted his head.

Laura was filled with anticipation immediately.

The smile on the black-haired man’s face suddenly disappeared and his face became completely expressionless, he said slowly: “I won’t tell you.”

Laura:”…”, the normal expression of the boss is scary!

“Okay, let’s talk about work.” Standing up, the black-haired man walked straight to the dressing room. With the voice coming from inside, there were also the rustling sounds of changing clothes.

When he came out again, he was already dressed in black formal attire, and the iconic gray and black scarf no longer needed to be put on. She doesn’t know why the boss suddenly took it out again this time, flipping it out and hanging it on his shoulder.

It’s a bit of a strange look, but the boss looks very formal when he wears it.

Midnight is approaching, and Ji Huan’s family in Yefar is about to fall asleep, but at this time in the big city, demons officially start their day.

“Then, let me sort out the report that needs your approval today…” Indicating that the demons waiting at the door can come in. Each of them was holding a stack of thick documents, related to the various industries that Ah Jin took over and became the person in charge.

After Kohler left, Ah Jin did not replace these demons. On the contrary, he still hired them. However, there were two demons who saw that Ah Jin was quite young and wanted to deceive him in the matter of accounting books.

Later on, these people never heard any news related to those two demons again.

It wasn’t a dismissal, but really “no news from now on”, as if these two demons never existed in the world.

The demons suddenly became honest and worked cautiously every day. It doesn’t matter if the boss doesn’t look like a businessman anymore. He is a powerful demon!

The kind that can eat people when he is in a bad mood!

Moreover, after a period of terrifying contact with him, they discovered that their new boss was indeed a difficult person to fool and had considerable business skills. Besides, who was the most popular demon during this period? It’s their own boss!

Participating in an auction can completely boost one’s reputation. Recently, the company’s business has been extremely good, and the boss has also given them a raise. If there is a good plan that requires approval of funds, and the boss thinks it is feasible, he will approve it.

It’s okay if the company doesn’t approve, the boss will privately allocate funds!

In these conditions, everyone is willing to work with hope, so these demons are completely determined to stay and work honestly.

Ah Jin listened attentively to the reports of these demons, and asked a question from time to time. He didn’t say much, but once he spoke, it was the key point. Under his guidance, the business was handled very quickly. When the demons withdrew from the office, at first glance, the time was less than half of their original working hours!

The efficiency is so high——

When those demons left with satisfaction, another gray demon was already waiting at the door.

This is a demon they have never seen before. It looks very low-level, and it is wearing a cheap-looking formal suit. It is probably the kind that young people can only afford when they come out to find a job for the first time. When he got up, he was very big, his face was a bit sad, and he was waiting outside the door without making a sound.

They don’t know if it is a new colleague, but if it is a new colleague, this one looks too shabby.

The demons were full of thoughts, but the gray demon didn’t lift its eyelids until the office door opened again, and walked into the office led by the red-haired female demon.

Then, the boss’s office door closed again.

The business he just dealt with was the matter of “making money”. But now, what needs to be dealt with is the matter of “spending money”.

“Nice to see you again, Master Nibru”. Sitting behind a spacious desk, the black haired demon placed his elbows on the table, and supported his chin with the back of his hand. He looked at the other party with his stagnant black eyes, and slowly welcomed him.

Behind the man is a whole transparent glass wall, where the neon lights of the whole city are flickering. This is the tallest room in the whole city, with luxurious decorations and incredibly soft carpets underfoot. This is a scene that Nibru has long missed.

He stabilised his mind, and said in a low voice for a while: “Please call me by my name, I don’t dare to be called a ……master or something.”

“Well, Mr. Nibru, it’s nice to meet you, and I hope you are satisfied with the treatment provided by the company. Now, let’s talk about the auction that we need to attend.” With his dark eyes locked on the poorly dressed demon in front of him, the black-haired man smiled.

At this moment, he is no longer the “Ah Jin” that Ji Huan has seen, but the upstart demon “Mr. Firzaha”.

“Okay, how much do you know about the current major auctions? Do you need me to introduce you, and… Is your purpose of participating in the auction an item, or is there another reason…”

The gray demon immediately entered the working mode with dedication. Under Ah Jin’s gesture, he talked about the major auctions in detail. The basics have not changed, so that the business model has not undergone major changes. Each auction has a different focus, and the recipients of the invitation letters are also different. How many fake items have been auctioned at each major auction… It is impossible for outsiders to know, even Laura doesn’t know except for a few, but Nibru knows very well.

Manufacturing of counterfeit items is a profession that is born in contacts with major auction houses and antique shops. To reach the peak in this industry, Nibru naturally has a deep understanding of these businesses.

After listening to his introduction, Laura suddenly understood why the boss paid a lot of money to hire such a person.

Although she still doesn’t understand why the boss frequently participates in major auctions, if he wants to participate, it may be better to bring this person who can identify the fake items rather than herself.

The latter may not be able to identify the genuine product, but the former can immediately identify the counterfeit, after all…

“I’m not boasting. During the first three hundred years, 80% of the fakes sold at these auctions were made by me. Over the years, these fakes are still being auctioned…”

Listen to this~

The gray demon spoke slowly, with no change in its expression, but in this way, it looked very similar to the black haired man behind the desk.

“Very good, thank you for your introduction. In addition, the next thing I want is the sword of Kolmath, which I need to get at any rate. However, I have no clue where it is at the moment. Think about it and see if there are any clues about this antique?” After listening carefully to the grey demon’s introduction, the black-haired Mr. Firzaha nodded, and finally made his request.

The two discussed for a while, and after about half an hour, it was almost 12 o’clock.

The carnival of the big demons is about to officially begin.

Putting on the scarf, Mr. Firzaha immediately rushed to the next banquet with his female secretary.

Mr. Firzaha has been very busy recently. After he became famous at the Luyerda auction, he was accepted in the circle of big demons. Next, he received a few invitations, and every time he participated, he always had a pleasant interaction with the host family. Over time, Mr. Firzaha became a very popular figure in the social circle of demons.

While the boss was chatting and laughing with the host’s family, Laura was carefully observing the furnishings of each house, desperately mixing in the group of female demons to chat, and then reporting all the information to her boss later.

Accompanying the boss to various banquets every day, after a while, the red-haired female demon felt that she had gained weight.

She doesn’t know if this counts as a work-related injury?

Thanks to the two phone calls before, Ah Jin didn’t forget that winter is coming in Yefar city. While wandering freely between various auctions and banquets, he thought of the family of three who had just arrived in this world, and thoughtfully sent some winter equipment over.

However, due to Hei Dan’s skill of heating up the hot springs, Ji Huan’s family is actually doing quite well.

He doesn’t know if it’s because of the hot spring pool, but when the temperature suddenly dropped, all the vegetables in the yard survived, and the ones which are closer to the hot spring pool grew even better. There was even a big pumpkin growing in the backyard!

That’s right, it’s pumpkin! Just like the one on earth~

However, God knows that Ji Huan didn’t bring any pumpkin seeds at all. He did bring some seeds, but none of them grew. Just when he thought that the crops from the original world could not survive here, in the pigsty, he suddenly found a big pumpkin growing.

Thinking of the location where the pumpkin is growing, and thinking of Da Bai’s last meal before leaving that world, it seems that the pumpkin was his last meal…

He suddenly realized…
