This Is Discrimination

Sitting opposite Selma, Li Yao paused for a moment, stunned.

That sounds strangely familiar.

It feels strange that I used to be the one saying these things, but now someone is saying them to me.

but,

Li Yao actually quite admired this; he, Boss Li, was rich now! Any problem that could be solved with money was negotiable—tsk tsk tsk, Li Yao really felt like he was getting a little too cocky.

Li Yao began a profound self-examination.

But after thinking about it carefully, he realized that Maeve Manufacturing now had a lot of money in its accounts, and the production and sales of his senior sister's business were not as regular as before. Every month, a sum of money was distributed to his account. The fluctuating numbers in the account could no longer make Li Yao happy!

Now,

Li Yao finally understood what Papa Ma Yun had said back then...

Money,

Paper!

Now that there's less paper money, it's all just a string of numbers on an app! So simply increasing numbers no longer makes him happy.

Therefore, Li Yao doesn't seem to be very interested in money anymore.

He is interested in spending money.

and,

One particularly interesting thing is that rich people tend to spend more money each month... Although it's not absolute, the movie "Hello Mr. Billionaire" reveals a pattern.

Ultimately, it's nothing more than a variant of the "Mass Effect" and the "Law of Attraction".

So Li Yao said very generously, "Tell me, how much?"

Selma held up two fingers. "Two hundred thousand euros."

EUR?

Li Yao quickly calculated that it came to a little over 1.4 million...

He pursed his lips, thinking to himself that this woman was ruthless!

but,

It's just a light drizzle!

I, Boss Li, am generous! So Li Yao asked, "Alipay or WeChat? Hmm... are both apps accepted here?"

Selma: "I've lived in China. Use Alipay; WeChat is just a communication app after all, and I hate its financial attributes."

Li Yao nodded.

In terms of payment, WeChat and Alipay are indeed incomparable.

Once you've been scammed and made a payment on WeChat, you can forget about getting your money back. That's why many scammers trick victims into transferring money through WeChat. Because WeChat simply won't do anything about it.

But Alipay is different.

Simply submitting a screenshot allows you to directly lock the other party's Alipay account! The two apps are completely incomparable in terms of payment security; Alipay utterly crushes WeChat!

Li Yao's Alipay had already been enabled for large-amount assets, so he quickly transferred the money.

After confirming receipt of payment, Selma said, "So, how do you want me to guide you?"

Li Yao: "He introduced me to the local circle of people with supernatural abilities, the kind where information circulates more easily and where there is a greater influence."

Selma: "Now?"

Li Yao: "I'm fine."

Selma: "Wait for me a moment, I'm going to change my clothes."

After saying that, she went upstairs on her own. When she came down again, she had changed into all black clothes: black punk boots, black ripped jeans, and a black hoodie. The somewhat lazy housegirl had instantly transformed into a dark punk-style girl.

However, Li Yao felt that...

Her current attire suits Selma's temperament better and is more in line with her identity.

After changing her clothes, Selma rummaged through a pile of plants and pulled out a black leather backpack, which she slung over her shoulder and said, "Let's go."

Li Yao followed.

After Selma locked the door, she went to Jiang Da Jin's car, opened the door, and got in. Jiang Da Jin, who was smoking, was so startled that he quickly put out his cigarette!

Seeing this, Li Yao laughed, "Are you very afraid of her?"

Jiang Da Jin: "Hehehehehe..."

He smiled but didn't reply, instead lighting the car and asking, "Sister, where are we going?"

Selma frowned, her dark brown eyebrows furrowing. "Go to the Fire Shark Bar on Liepziger Street near Union Square."

Jiang Da Jin: "Alright, alright!"

Selma: "Can't you speak Mandarin? Or English would be fine too! You're making my accent so bad!"

Jiang Da Jin: "..."

Damn, my accent got distorted because of that! As the car started moving, the scenery outside the window rushed past. During the drive to Union Square, Selma gave Li Yao a little background check. "The Fire Shark Bar on Liepziger Street near Union Square is a popular spot for local freaks. It's the biggest and most well-informed place. But it's also pretty chaotic there."

Registered and unregistered supernatural beings all like to go there when they have nothing to do.

Because there are pleasures there that ordinary people can't experience! Pleasures?

Li Yao asked curiously, "What kind of fun?"

Selma shrugged. "You'll see when you get there."

Jiang Da Jin, who was driving in front, excitedly turned around and asked, "Brother Cao! Aren't you like brothers? Give me a ride!"

Why is he speaking Shaanxi dialect? Where did you learn this dialect? Li Yao even suspects that Comrade Jiang Da Jin subconsciously picked it up whenever he went to a new place and found the dialect interesting!

Then,

Selma kicked Jiang Da Jin in the driver's seat. "Drive your car!"

Social girl!

Absolutely domineering!

Union Square wasn't far from Magheru Avenue, and they arrived quickly. After parking the car, Selma got out first, followed by Li Yao and Jiang Da Jin. Jiang Da Jin, trailing behind Li Yao, eagerly asked, "Can you take me inside?"

He just wanted to go in and take a look! Although Jiang Da Jin was considered an unofficial member of the Wallfacers, he mainly interacted with ordinary people. Even when he came into contact with superhumans, it was always in private meetings.

But he couldn't get into those bars that clearly had a powerful background.

Li Yao nodded. "Then you should stay close."

Jiang Da Jin was overjoyed. "Thank you so much!"

After walking through the long Liepziger Street, Li Yao finally found the Fire Shark Bar that Selma had mentioned in a very inconspicuous little corner at the end of the street.

It was a very ordinary bar.

A wooden sign hangs at the entrance, featuring a shark's head that is rotting so badly that its bones are exposed, with flames shooting from its eyes. Below the shark's head is a sea of blood-red fire.

Although the pattern on the signboard was painted, Li Yao sensed spiritual energy fluctuations within it.

The crimson flames and the menacing gaze of the shark seemed to emit a strange aura that frightened ordinary people, causing them to instinctively stay away from the place.

Li Yao smiled and said, "That's interesting."

Selma didn't wait for Li Yao and Jiang Da Jin before entering the bar.

There was only one tall, muscular white man behind the bar. His bald head was covered with menacing tattoos, but Li Yao felt that the guy's face and eyes didn't need such superfluous decorations as tattoos.

Selma, as if she hadn't seen him, walked to the back of the bar, grabbed a ship's rudder from a wall with rudders hanging on it, and started turning it! "Click click click..."

The sound of mechanical gears turning came, and a wall suddenly sank backward and slid to the side, revealing a dark staircase leading down from behind the wall.

Li Yao peered in with great interest. "A secret room bar inside a bar?"

Selma: "Come on."

Li Yao and Jiang Da Jin quickly followed and went down the steps. At the bottom, Li Yao saw a burly man reading a blue magazine. Next to the man was a specially modified shotgun. When he saw Li Yao and Li Yao come down, he immediately put down the magazine and pulled out a card from the table next to him, turning the back of the card to Selma.

Selma glanced at it and said, "Rabbit."

The burly man put the playing cards back, removed the chain in front of him, put Selma inside, and then put the chain back on.

When it was Li Yao's turn, the burly man did the same thing.

Li Yao stared at the playing card, and after sensing the spiritual energy fluctuations within it, he extended his spiritual tentacles to perceive it. A gray wolf appeared in his perception, so he said, "Gray wolf."

The burly man nodded, removed the chains, and put Li Yao inside...

Jiang Da Jin wanted to go in too, but was stopped by someone.

Li Yao turned around and said, "He's with me."

The burly man didn't speak, but shook his head.

Jiang Da Jin: "..."

Selma turned around at the doorway on the inside and said, "Only people with supernatural abilities are allowed to enter here... ordinary people are not allowed to come in."

Jiang Da Jin protested. "This is discrimination!"

Selma nodded. "You're right."

Jiang Da Jin: "..."
