#539 - Chapter 539: Fraud? Give me 1 million first

A big opportunity?

Hearing Ford and Baron's words, Su Ke looked puzzled. Before he could ask, the two of them spoke first.

"Mr. Kern, you're finally back."

"Mr. Kern, we've found a big opportunity to earn 50 million universal coins!"

Fifty million?!

Su Ke was stunned.

This was an extremely terrifying number.

If he remembered the accounts correctly, Kara's shop hadn't earned even half of this amount in the ten years since it opened.

And this was just the total revenue, without deducting costs.

Fortunately, pharmacists didn't have to pay taxes, otherwise, the net profit would be even lower.

The two began to describe it with gestures.

The more Su Ke listened, the stranger it sounded.

According to the two.

In a mission these past two days, they had met a friend from a neighboring country.

This friend claimed to be a member of the Fels Principality's royal family, ordered to go to the Carter Kingdom for a deal worth over 100 million universal coins.

Passing through the Lounose Principality, he encountered a hidden ambush by enemy forces, resulting in the loss of the goods.

Now, he needed to raise 500,000 universal coins to regroup and proceed to the Carter Kingdom for the transaction.

Once the transaction was completed, the income would be over 100 million.

Currently, half of the 500,000 universal coins had been raised, and only 250,000 universal coins were needed to complete it, at which point they could go to the Carter Kingdom.

This friend, upon seeing Ford and Baron, promised that if the two made up the remaining 250,000 universal coins, they would receive half of the profits after the transaction was completed, which was 50 million universal coins.

This sounded like a scam.

But Baron and Ford actually believed it.

The reason was simple: the other party produced evidence of his status as a member of the Fels Principality's royal family, and he himself was a powerful fifth-order existence.

Most importantly, Baron was from the Fels Principality. Although he later left, he recognized this prince.

Su Ke was silent.

Were the requirements to become a scammer so high these days?

An ordinary person wouldn't do; it had to be a prince with fifth-order strength...

Su Ke showed an interested expression, "Then, take me to meet this prince."

Seeing Su Ke's interest, the two were very happy.

Once the transaction was completed, they didn't ask for much for themselves, as long as they could repay the money for treating their broken legs.

Following behind the two, Su Ke walked and asked questions.

As he learned more about this prince, Su Ke's eyes flickered.

Logically speaking, a prince shouldn't be worried about money.

Fifty million universal coins was indeed a lot, but for a prince, especially one with fifth-order strength, it shouldn't be a big problem to come up with it.

Kara's potion shop had pitiful revenue, but that was because Kara deliberately kept a low profile.

If he opened a shop in the imperial capital and started refining and selling fifth-order or even sixth-order potions, 50 million universal coins could be easily obtained without much effort.

With incomprehension, Su Ke found that the route Ford and Baron were leading him on was becoming increasingly remote.

Su Ke frowned slightly.

This location was somewhat close to where he had previously killed Lecton.

Could it be that the Fels Principality sent someone to assassinate him?

Su Ke paused and stopped.

Ford and Baron, who were ahead, eagerly anticipating a bright future, turned back curiously, "What's wrong? Mr. Kern."

Su Ke sat down on the ground, "A little tired, let's rest for a while."

Under their puzzled gazes, Su Ke directly opened the system.

Better safe than sorry.

Faced with this unknown and suspicious matter, it was better to simulate it.

"Consuming simulation points x342000, remaining simulation points 8,848,145, simulation begins."

"Day 1: You meet the prince mentioned by Ford and Baron, at the stream where Lecton was killed.

The first glance at the prince, you feel a dangerous aura.

Fifth-order seventh level...

This is the prince's level.

Obviously, he also saw through your level.

A clear surprise for a moment, seemingly unable to imagine encountering a fifth-order powerhouse in such a place.

With the introduction of Baron and Ford, you meet each other.

'Fels Principality, Prince, Les.'

'Lounose Principality, Pharmacist, Kern.'

Les looks at you, and after hearing that you are a pharmacist, a hint of joy flashes in his eyes, which he immediately erases.

After a brief exchange, Les looks at you and asks, 'Mr. Kern, 250,000 universal coins shouldn't be a problem for you, right?'

You smile, although he can't see it, and say, 'Of course, it's a small matter, and I think 250,000 universal coins is a bit too little. I've decided to give you 1 million universal coins, so we can earn more.'

Hearing your words, Les's face shows surprise, followed by undisguised joy.

Seeing his appearance, you immediately sigh.

Les immediately asks nervously, 'What's wrong?'

You look at him and say, 'I have tens of millions of universal coins, but because I had nowhere to store them, I deposited them all in the Lounose Principality's imperial capital bank two years ago.'

'It was fine at first, but last year, I accidentally offended a big shot, and all the money has now been frozen and cannot be withdrawn.'

'Furthermore, I was suppressed and can only hide my name in this small town, co-running a pharmacist shop with others.'

Hearing your narration, the smile on Les's face freezes for a moment, and he quickly comforts you twice before continuing, 'Is there no way?'

Hearing his question, a smile that he cannot detect appears on your lips, 'There is a way... but it requires some money to grease some palms.'

Les is silent, seemingly hesitating.

After a long while, he doesn't speak.

You wave at him with a bitter smile, 'I'm sorry...'

After saying that, you prepare to leave with Ford and Baron.

After walking more than ten meters, Les suddenly speaks from behind, 'How much money is needed?'

A smile that he cannot detect appears on your lips, and you say with a sorrowful voice, '1 million universal coins.'

After saying that, you explain, 'That big shot has a greedy steward by his side, and this money should be able to take care of it...'

After saying that, you leave.

Ford and Baron are hesitant to speak along the way, seemingly not expecting that you, who seem so glamorous, would have such a tragic experience.

They curse and swear, their mouths full of fragrant words, all targeting the big shot you mentioned."

"..."

"Day 3: Les comes to the pharmacist shop and sees you.

He scans the shop, his gaze fixed on the medicine cabinet behind you.

A large number of potions are neatly arranged.

'The business here... isn't very good, is it?'

You sigh and shake your head, without speaking.

He looks at you, 'I can borrow 1 million universal coins for you, but you have to promise me that after your assets are unfrozen, you will fund me 5 million universal coins.'

'Rest assured, after the transaction with the Carter Kingdom is completed, you will receive tens of millions, or even hundreds of millions of universal coins in return!'

Upon hearing this, the smile on your face becomes even brighter, and you say with 'excited gratitude', 'Thank you so much, Prince Les!'"
