A Wizard's Survival Guide to the 20th Century

A necessary prerequisite for Levi's plan to be successfully implemented is that Mr. Depp did not hand over the cement formula to the company.

If this formula is obtained by Powell Construction Company, they will definitely choose to buy the patent for the sake of the company's reputation. Even if Levi disagrees, their legal department can use magical means to eliminate Levi's patent ownership.

But in this case, although Mr. Depp will definitely get the award, other project managers will also get the same formula, and Mr. Depp's advantage will no longer be so obvious.

Therefore, Mr. Depp has been using Levi’s cement formula without telling the company’s upper management.

This means that once Levi sues Powell Construction Company, the latter will most likely be caught off guard and will have to spend a large amount of money to deal with the lawsuit.

Then they will surely find out what Mr. Depp is hiding, cut him off, and fire him.

Once this happens, Mr. Depp will be equivalent to being abandoned by the entire construction industry.

Mr. Depp's face turned white little by little following Levi's words.

Fear, anger... He hated the Seris man in front of him to the extreme, but his reason told him that there was nothing he could do about the person in front of him.

"What do you want?" Mr. Depp said coldly.

"My salary, your fee for using my cement formula, and royalties."

"how much is it?"

Levi smiled and held out two fingers.

"Two hundred Philippine dollars?" Mr. Depp was stunned.

"No, it's two thousand Philippine dollars."

……

It was obviously impossible for Mr. Depp to have a huge sum of 500 Philippine dollars on him. He gave Levi 1500 Philippine dollars in cash and a Morgan Bank check with an limit of Philippine dollars.

"Three days later, you go to safe deposit box No. 1046 of Morgan Bank. There will be a patent technology transfer form signed with my name."

Mr. Depp looked up in surprise.

"What did you say?"

"It's the same as the literal meaning." Levi stuffed the check into his wallet, put it in the pocket, and said with a smile.

Mr. Depp wanted to ask a few more questions, but Levi had already turned around and left, not forgetting to gently close the door of the iron house.

For Levi, these cement concrete recipes were a hot potato, and he had no immediate plans to become an inventor.

Levi is a wizard, a wizard targeted by gangs. He doesn't know the identities of the gang members. Maybe they can find out his information through patents. This is undoubtedly a flaw.

Therefore, using it to make a fortune and then finding someone willing to take over is the right choice.

The best target of both happens to be Mr. Depp.

Levi left the construction site and looked up at the words Powell Construction Company printed on the fence.

In every sense of the word, this was the place that provided him with his first pot of gold.

"I wonder if we will ever meet again in the future..." Levi thought.

He shook his head to get rid of the distracting thoughts in his mind.

Now that I have money in hand, the next thing to do is to get a passport and other documents, and finally buy a ticket to the south.

As far as he knew, there were many wizards in Zoet neighborhood whose witchcraft was related to forged documents.

"I wonder if I can meet someone today..."

Levi held the suitcase and looked around, thinking for a while about the location of the hotel and clothing store.

Now he holds Mr. Depp’s half-life savings in his hands, and he has been upgraded from a bottom worker to an indomitable middle class.

There was still one afternoon before the party, so he decided to take a shower and change into clothes suitable for his current status.

……

"The price of this shirt is 9 Philippine cents and 15 Philippine cents." The waitress said with a smile, "With the discount, the total cost of this set is 50 Philippine cents."

Levi's smile froze on his face.

He stretched out his sleeves and looked dissatisfied: "This set is very good, but... it's too formal and not convenient for exercise. Do you understand what I mean? Please match me with a more casual set. I plan to wear it." It goes hunting.”

"Okay." The waitress's smile remained unchanged and she quickly selected a few more pieces. "How about this set? They are suitable for daily wear. The total price is 15 Philippine dollars."

Levi was overjoyed: "Very good, I'll pay in cash!"

After a while, Levi put on a single-breasted Chester coat, a dark brown shirt and black trousers, and walked out of the classically decorated clothing store with satisfaction.

"Why are you dressed like Peaky Blinders?" Levi looked at himself in the mirror at the door, looking at himself neatly packed and smiling.

Previously, Levi had always been shown as a poor and dirty Seris worker. Now his sudden change of image has the nature of cross-dressing, which may mislead the eyes of gang members.

The wizard's gang is not just a ragtag group of street gangsters. A gang that can survive often has prominent members and informants from all walks of life.

Levi picked up his suitcase and raised his hand to stop a taxi.

He didn't want to throw away these old clothes just yet; they would come in handy later if he needed to disguise himself.

The driver raised his whip and the carriage drove slowly, turning the corner of Zoett Street and heading towards Dock Street.

Next to the horse-drawn carriage, the emerging Ford Model T car drove slowly by. It is said that in some radical states, there are laws that completely prohibit horse-drawn carriages from taking to the road.

Soon, the chaotic and bustling dock came into view. The carriage stopped on the side of the road. Levi got off the carriage. He took out his wallet from the space. After much thought, he added an additional tip of 15 cents to the original 5 cents.

The coachman took off his newsboy hat and saluted, then drove away to look for the next guest.

So, next... Levi took out his pocket watch and opened it softly. The hands on it had just passed five-quarter.

"Don't be late..." He underestimated and followed his memory to find the Hamptons Cafe.

Is anyone watching?
