Chapter 74 Midnight Bazaar and Fireworks Money
The four eventually made it to the 'Happiness Restaurant, which was across the street from their hotel, For the locals, it had a long history. Many luxury cars were parked in front of the restaurant, and there was a long line of people waiting to eat there.
However, Tristan had reserved the beste room, so there was no need for them to queue. The ambiance was fantastic, and they could see the scenery outside the restaurant from inside the private room. A huge lake could be seen not far away, and the vast body of glistening blue water was exquisitely colored with shades of red by the setting sun.
At this time, William showed Tia the video
Thomas that they had taken carlier. Tia laughed boisterously after watching it. "Good! Thomas had been a pain on my father's side for a long time, and it was his idea to marry me to Josh. He was an evil man through and through."
William responded, "It seems that the Lloyds' situation is very complicated. How do you plan to deal with this matter?"
Tia scoffed upon hearing that. "I don't need to deal with it. Tristan killed Thomas. If they had the guts, they would seek revenge on Tristan."
William then asked about the situation of the Lloyd Family, and Tia replied truthfully. It turned out that the Lloyd Family was one of the four prestigious families in Justford, with assets totaling more than 30 billion. There were three wives, the eldest, the second, and the third.
Turner, the second wife's son, had no social standing. Although he had put in a lot of effort since he was young, he received zero affirmation. In the end, he decided to live life however he wanted.
Ruby Jenkins, the eldest wife, wielded the most power. The Jenkins Family was wealthy and had a long history in Justford. Without their help, the Lloyds rise to power would not have been possible. As a result, Ruby held a unique position within the Lloyd Family, and Theodore, Tia's grandfather, only valued her opinions.
Ruby gave birth to a daughter and two sons. They controlled the Lloyds' core industry, along with her younger brother and nephews, and were the true senior management of the Lloyd Family.
The third wife, in contrast, only had one daughter, who later got married and moved far away from the Lloyds. Suffice to say, she was somewhat of a wallflower.
According to Tia, the Jenkins were 'foreign relatives' who were currently in control of the Lloyd Family, Turner had been silenced by said relatives, so he wouldn't be able to achieve any great heights at all.
When William heard this, he finally realized why Turner was trying to find an alternative route. "Uncle Lloyd is trying to use the 1.5 billion as a chip in order to break free from his chains. That way, he wouldn't have to bother with Ruby anymore, is that right?" he questioned.
Tia laughed. "It's all thanks to my brother. What my dad and I tried to do was to work with Kane to complete the Ivory Dragon Cove/project."
William D
pondered over that particular avenue. He had approximately 390 million and another 750 million on the way, totaling 1.14 billion. The investment for Ivory Dragon Cove was around 6 billion, so he figured he could invest some money into the project as well.
So, he asked, "How much did Kane invest?"
Chapter 74 Midnight Bazaar and Fireworks Money,
Kane has invested at least 2.25 billion into it, so we still need 3.75 billion. Including the profit we made this time, my dad and I can come up with 2.25 billion," said Tia.
"So, we are still short of 1.5 billion. He thought things over momentarily and said, "I have 1.14 billion in hand, and there is still a shortfall of 360 million. I'll borrow some from Tristan to make up the 1.6 billion.
Tia was stunned when she heard his plan. "You're planning to borrow money from Tristan?"
William replied nonchalantly, "Of c urse, I would be signing an IOU. Once the Ivory Dragon Cove is completed, I'll pay him back with an interest of 1% annually."

Still, she asked in curiosity, "Is he willing to lend
you the money?"
He let out a chuckle. "He'll not only be willing to do so, but he'll beg for me to borrow it."
He turned to gaze out the window and stated, "It'll be a full moon tomorrow. Let's wait for another day and leave the day after."
The food at Happiness Restaurant was delicious. Scarlet devoured the food while heaping praise on the dishes.
After dinner, Tia took Scarlet shopping for clothes and shoes. Tia was far more generous with Scarlet than William, spending hundreds of thousands on her.
After the women were done shopping at 8.00PM, William asked Jason to drive Tristan's armored car as he took the group to the midnight bazaar.
The midnight bazaar was illegal and had everything-antiquities, calligraphy and paintings, weapons and ammo, precious stones, vintage furniture, elixir, evil objects, etc. In terms of authenticity, it would have to depend on the buyer's ability to determine them.
The gate of an abandoned factory served as the entrance to the midnight bazaar. At the gate, a man was selling tickets for hundred fifty each. After William
purchased four tickets, they entered one after the other.
As soon as they entered the factory, they discovered a long row of large, deserted factory buildings with rows of incandescent lights lit inside.
When William entered one of the buildings, he saw that it was filled with tables of
various heights, items. had been placed on the tables, and everything visible was for sale. Some vendors would merely spread a plastic sheet on the ground and arrange their items for sale on it.
These vendors were all wearing masks and hiding their identities. Most of them used ApplePay for the transaction, which was convenient and quick. William didn't look at anything besides the things he was familiar with throughout the trip. He had to make three trips back and forth from one end of the factory building to the other to finish going through everything.
After he passed by a dozen stalls, he came to a complete stop. A short distance away, he noticed a booth with a sack filled with various coins and an elderly man smoking tobacco by the side.
He took a quick look and discovered that these coins carried the energies of various empires, and the majority of them were genuine,

When he saw that, he was drawn to the stall and came to a halt..
In the circle, the Emperor's magical money was frequently used by practitioners.
It came in two sizes. large and small. Among them, the large Emperor's magical money was the most difficult to find. They are Chronus, Hytsi, Kaesar, Sriopira, and Yxmoni. All of these carried energies as they have been used by numerous generations of people throughout five different empires.

William could setup a magical formation that was effective in

Unfortunately,
ately, they were extremely
rareh Even if it was discovered, the quality was frequently lacking. For instance, more than 2000 years ago, there was the Qequisian Kingdom. On the market, the cost of a high-quality Chronus, which was from the Quequisian Kingdom. could reach the thousands while those of
lower quality cost only tens, which

However, William wasn't just looking
for Emperor's magic money. He was
on the lookout for those ritually m refined by ancient masters! Among the practitioners, this was referred to as the 'Fireworks Money. It had a beautiful exterior and was capable of
breaking evil and disasters as well as suppressing Qi, which was why it was known as magic money. The content is on Novelxo.org! Read the latest chapter there!
The real fortune-telling masters use these for their fortune-telling.
The quantity of magic money was scarce; one could probably only find one in a
million, and even fewer have been passed down to the present, but, in the eyes
of a practitioner, magic money had an inestimable
value.

and discovered a small amount of magical money in the sack In his eyes, the strange light they emitted-which was invisible to most people was especially noticeable.

William asked the old man, "Hi there, I'd like to pick a few of the Emperor's magic
money. How are you selling them?"
The old man smoked a few puffs before saying, "Fifteen per coin and no
bargaining!"
Once William heard the old man's words, he immediately knelt and pulled out a
handful of coins. He did this twelve times and displayed them in front of him.
He selected fifteen coins in total from the piles, two Chronus, two Hytsi, three Kaesar, three Sriopira, and three Yxmoni.
The fifteen coins were all magic money, and they were all immaculately preserved with no signs of rust. Some of them had been ritually refined by masters from various eras, as they gave off incredible energy After he chose the fifteen coins, William chose another twelve sets of higher-
quality large Emperor's magic money and paid the elderly man' one thousand
one hundred twenty-five right away.
