Fei Niao City

The bay is quite beautiful, but due to planning issues, many areas are overgrown with weeds. However, this doesn't detract from its scenery.

Some buildings have already sprung up deep in the bay, all high-rises that rise abruptly from the ground, their construction mirroring the bay's curve, perfectly embodying the ocean-view suites often touted by real estate developers...

These buildings seem to have been built recently, and the surrounding area appears somewhat chaotic. Occasionally, you can see construction teams doing some work, but judging from the location and the development trend, they will likely be sold at a very high price in the future!

Fei Niao City is probably a second- or third-tier city, much larger than a city like Bo City, but it can't compare to metropolises like Hangzhou, Shanghai, the Ancient Capital, or Guangzhou.

"That's the larger port you're looking for," Liu Meng said, pointing to the Haihe River that extends from the sea into the city.

This Feiniao Port is clearly an important trade hub, with many large ships sailing by. The Haihe River is also very wide, leading directly to the vast ocean, and looking further inland, it seems to stretch even deeper into the interior...

"The Haihe River is quite large. Logically speaking, this city should be approaching the size of a major city, but it looks a bit cramped," Zhao Manyan said.

As a man in the Zhao Clan, Zhao Manyan could often see through things that were related to development and financial success at a glance.

Therefore, it's not that rich young masters are entirely useless.

Logically speaking, with such a port, it's unlikely that the surrounding area within a hundred or two kilometers would be poor. So why is it that all the villages, towns, and even the core Fei Niao City that I've seen along the way are far less prosperous than it is?

Tang Miao shrugged and said, "I guess the municipal administration is just so-so."

"Impossible. With such a good port, even the worst municipality couldn't be in this state. If I had the funds, I would invest in this port immediately, and it would be a huge investment. I would buy the land, and even if it took three to five years, I would make a fortune. In fact, I could even buy the entire city." Zhao Manyan said seriously.

"Tsk tsk tsk, no wonder it's the Zhao Clan, buying an entire city outright," Zu Jiming said sarcastically.

Despite his burly appearance, he has a narrow and petty mind. There always seems to be something about him that he finds disagreeable, especially about Zhao Manyan, who was bribed into the position.

"Business opportunity, do you understand?" Zhao Manyan sneered, his eyes full of disdain.

"Enough talk, let's go to the port and ask if there are any ships going to Japan." Ai Jiangtu interrupted the crowd and walked to the front of the group.

"Having a boat is useless; others will inevitably check our identities," Zu Jiming said.

Tang Miao replied with the same disdain, "Do you think everyone is as stupid as you?"

Upon hearing this, Ancestor Zu Jiming's face turned ashen, and he said with displeasure, "Then do you have a solution?"

Although he was very angry, having witnessed the terrifying power of Tang Miao's two Contract Beasts, he really didn't have the temper to offend Tang Miao.

After all, he'll be the one who gets punished in the end...

Although the Zu Family held a high position, they knew nothing about Tang Miao and were not as strong as him, so naturally they wouldn't choose to invite a beating.

"Tang Miao, do you have any way to resolve our identity issue?" Ai Jiangtu turned around and asked.

"We are mages, and everyone has problems they can't solve. As mages, we can often help others solve them. I think in such a large port city, there's no reason why everyone should have a smooth life... We do things for people, and they're responsible for taking us to Japan. It's that simple!" After all, he was a Hunter Mage, and he understood the principle of taking money to solve problems for others.

Since they have no money, helping others solve their problems is clearly the best option for them.

"You make it sound so easy. Who would be so kind as to send people like us who don't even have identities to Japan? Smuggling is a crime," Zu Jiming said, curling his lip.

Tang Miao had just embarrassed him, so he was naturally very dissatisfied with Tang Miao.

Tang Miao smiled and added, "So, what we're going to do is naturally something that ordinary people can't do. Also, a brain is a good thing; I hope you can have one too."

"You..."

Zu Jiming was somewhat angry, and if he hadn't known he couldn't win, he would have wanted to fight. However, in the end, he held back.

Seeing that Zu Jiming had held back, Tang Miao said as he passed by, "Don't look at me like you're constipated. You should be glad you made that choice. Otherwise, I would have made you crawl on the ground the moment before you even made a move."

In the heart of Fei Niao City stands a magnificent Twin Towers built entirely of diamond glass. This is the headquarters of the renowned Lin Group, which owns half of the Fei Niao City's new buildings. They are truly city tycoons!

Just as Tang Miao and his group arrived, they saw a female secretary walk out of the lobby with a look of hormonal imbalance on her face.

The female secretary seemed to have noticed them as well. She saw a group of well-dressed young people sitting on the sofa, chatting about something. Judging from their demeanor, they were probably rich and powerful. However, one of them was clearly a country bumpkin. He was not only dark-skinned but also wearing faded jeans and worn-out sneakers so black they could leave mud imprints on the lobby.

Although the female secretary had just been scolded by her boss, she still knew that there were some people she couldn't afford to offend. However, since the mayor was coming soon, she naturally had to give way to unrelated people.

The female secretary immediately called over a security guard and said, "Go and ask them what they do."

The security guard obediently ran over, then ran back shortly after, fawningly saying, "They said the owner of this building is in trouble, and they've come to resolve it."

"What the hell is this?" Upon hearing this, the female secretary's already bad mood worsened even further!

So these young people are fortune tellers? Playing around with this kind of bloody disaster!

"Hmph, let's ask them if they dare to go and hunt down the Sea Monster. Honestly, a bunch of idle fools," the female secretary said.

These words sounded like they were spoken in anger, but the security guard actually went.

And soon the security guard returned, excitedly telling the secretary, "They said it's okay."

Upon hearing this, the female secretary immediately frowned. She looked at the group of people more closely and decided they didn't seem like the kind of con artists.

While the female secretary was still wondering, a handsome young man with blond hair walked over with a sunny smile. The secretary was momentarily stunned, and her heart couldn't help but flutter...

Ultimately, it's a world that judges by appearance; men like beautiful women, and women like handsome men.

Perhaps because of Zhao Manyan's striking appearance, the two quickly began chatting...
