When Yu Xiaogang and Bibi Dong were making love, Flanders, who was far away in the small village below Soto City, was counting the gold soul coins in his study to calculate how much money he had cheated today.
"Alas! The gold soul coins are still not enough! It seems that I have to cheat more freshmen next year. I wonder if my old brothers can swallow their pride."
Flanders looked at the small pile of gold soul coins in front of him, and said with a melancholy face. He stretched out his hand and began to fiddle with it. This part is the rent for his own academy next year, and this part is for the old brothers. Well... give more! This share is the working capital of the academy.
After the division, Flanders looked at the only gold soul coin left in his hand with a painful and desperate face. He couldn't help but think that he shouldn't be so determined to refuse the solicitation of the Lord of Soto City today. It's really hard to move forward without money! How can I save face? Any bit is a bit!
Flanders held his forehead with one hand, feeling a little dizzy. He just wanted to find a place for the old brothers who had been through life and death. How could it be so difficult!
"Boss Flanders! Boss, are you asleep? There's a letter for you!"
At this time, Zhao Wuji's loud voice broke through the door and reached Flanders' ears, which startled him and he immediately quickly put the gold soul coins on the table into the storage soul guide. When Zhao Wuji finished speaking, the door was violently pushed open with a bang.
"Boss, you are not asleep! This is a letter sent by the caravan that just passed by Soto City. It seems to be sent to you by a man named Yu Xiaogang. By the way, when will our old brothers get their salaries?"
Zhao Wuji pushed the door open and slapped the letter on the table in front of Flanders, shaking up a circle of dust. Flanders was about to lose his temper, but when he heard that it was a letter from his good brother Yu Xiaogang who had disappeared for a year, he taught Zhao Wuji, this brainless bear, a lesson.
However, after hearing that Zhao Wuji was a little embarrassed to ask for the salary of the academy teachers, Flanders pretended to clench his fist and coughed. He took out the gold soul coins that had just been allocated fr
om the storage soul guide with a bit of pain and said:
"Ahem! Old Zhao! Don't worry, I, Flanders, will definitely do what I promised! You also have to..."
Before Flanders could give a long speech, Zhao Wuji directly snatched the bag of gold soul coins from Flanders' hand, waved his hand helplessly and said:
"Alright, alright! Every time you ask you for salary, you have to say this. Boss, if you are not tired, I am tired! But boss, is it not appropriate for us to run an academy? It's been so long, only one student passed the assessment."
Zhao Wuji weighed the gold soul coins in his hand with a happy face, feeling the most wonderful sound of the gold soul coins colliding, and replied.
Zhao Wuji complained without thinking at first, but when he saw that Flanders's face was getting worse, he immediately started to change the subject and shifted Flanders' attention to the students of Shrek Academy.
Flanders was going to give Zhao Wuji a hard time, but when he heard Zhao Wuji questioning the opening of the academy, he got a little excited and said,
"Humph! What's up! Are you starting to doubt your boss's opinion? We, the old brothers, have been through life and death together. Can't we open an academy to provide for our retirement and pass on our skills? Don't forget that we were all born as commoners! I don't want to be a dog for the nobles!"
Zhao Wuji saw that the old brother Flanders was starting to get angry, so he immediately smiled and said,
"Hehe! I, Zhao, am a rough man and don't understand these twists and turns! I will listen to your boss Flanders! It's getting late, I will go and distribute the teachers' salaries first! I'm leaving first!"
Zhao Wuji touched the back of his head and laughed dryly. Without waiting for Flanders to react, he left the study room at the fastest speed and closed the door casually.
Flanders looked at Zhao Wuji like this and couldn't help but shake his head and sigh. There was no way his old brothers had reached the end of their soul masters, and they were not young anymore. As the boss of this team, he had to take responsibility.
However, the gold soul coins are a big problem. Flanders is good at fighting, but he is at a loss when it comes to running a school and business. Now he has to bite the bullet.
Flanders began to miss Liu Erlong, his rich sister, but he couldn't help but sigh when he thought of the bad things that happened a year ago.Flanders also had a bitter taste in his mouth. He fell in love with a woman who didn't love him.
Although Yu Xiaogang and Liu Erlong didn't get married successfully, he was secretly happy when it was revealed that his second brother and third sister were cousins, but when he saw Liu Erlong's heartbroken eyes, Flanders' heart was deeply hurt.
So Flanders, disheartened, took a group of old brothers to huddle together for warmth and opened a high-level soul master school, hoping to find a satisfactory disciple to pass on.
However, Flanders was still very happy that Yu Xiaogang, who had disappeared for a long time, suddenly sent him a letter. After all, as the leader of the golden iron triangle, he still cared about his brothers and sisters.
Flanders still did not hesitate, picked up the letter on the table, opened it and took out a thick piece of paper. He pushed his glasses and his eyes twitched slightly. You haven't seen Yu Xiaogang for a year, and you have so much to say to him? However,
Flanders was still very happy that Yu Xiaogang recovered and sent a letter to him, the boss, as soon as possible. Flanders read Yu Xiaogang's letter page by page, and the corners of his mouth began to curl up.
Far away in another rural hut, Zhao Wuji was distributing money to a group of old brothers. Suddenly, he heard Flanders' laughter. Li Yusong was a little worried and said,
"Is our boss okay? Why is he laughing so happily in the middle of the night? Has he finally figured out that he doesn't want to open the academy? I told you! It was so nice to help people hunt souls together before, and we were free. Now we are nestling in this small village."
Zhao Wuji patted Li Yusong's shoulder with his big palm and said comfortingly,
"Okay, Lao Li, stop complaining. I know what you really mean! You don't want Boss Flanders to work hard for us old guys. He just wants to give us a place to live in the future. Boss Flanders seems to have received a letter from an old friend today. It might be something happy!"
Zhao Wuji said a little uncertainly, but hearing Boss Flanders laughing happily just now should be a good thing! Let's ask tomorrow, and then Zhao Wuji and his group will go back to sleep after distributing the gold soul coins. Tomorrow he still has to teach the only student who was admitted to Shrek.
Qin Ming tossed and turned in the old and dilapidated wooden house and couldn't sleep. He felt cheated. Isn't Shrek a school that only accepts monsters? Why are the teaching conditions so poor? Is it to temper his spiritual will? But it's good to have a teacher at the level of Soul Saint and Soul Emperor to teach.
After all, Qin Ming was born as a commoner, and he didn't have the resources and guides to practice. Qin Ming fell asleep unconsciously with his dream in his heart.
Flanders didn't know that the only student this year began to doubt the teaching quality of Shrek, but he was still very happy to receive the invitation letter from Yu Xiaogang! And he was relieved that Yu Xiaogang walked out of the shadows and cheered up again, but now he didn't know how sister Liu Erlong was doing. There was no news after they separated one day.
Flanders sighed when he thought of this. Tomorrow, he should gather his old brothers and tell them that there is good news! It seems that the rent of the academy can save a sum of gold soul coins next year! Well, I don't know if the village chief can refund him a little bit of this year's rent.
Nothing happened for a year. The next morning, before the sun came out, a hot woman came to the door of Shrek. Liu Erlong looked at the information given by the sect and was a little suspicious. After a careful look, she couldn't believe that this was a high-level soul master academy? She complained helplessly:
"Boss Flanders hasn't changed. He's still so stingy! I haven't seen him for a year. I wonder how Flanders is doing?"
Liu Erlong blushed a little when she thought of her father's words when she left the sect, but she still couldn't let go of the expectation in her heart. After all, no beautiful woman would be happy to be pursued!
Liu Erlong didn't know why, but she couldn't sleep well last night. She felt that she had lost something important. It felt like the feeling of having her toys taken away when she was a child. She tossed and turned all night and got up early to find Flanders.
Liu Erlong was in a bad mood now. She didn't sleep all night and felt very irritable. Moreover, her martial spirit was still a fire dragon, which made her even more irritable. Liu Erlong didn't want to go into such a shabby academy to find someone, so she used her soul power to bless her voice and shouted loudly
"Flender! Come out to see me! Your old friend is here, why don't you come out and treat him well!"
Flender, who was still asleep, opened his eyes instantly. It seemed that Liu Erlong's sister was calling him just now. Did she miss him too much recently? However, Flender felt the familiar soul power fluctuation and immediately became excited.
Flender immediately put on his coat, summoned the owl martial spirit, and the black soul ring flashed by. He instantly appeared at the entrance of the academy and saw Liu Erlong, who was thinking about him day and night, and said excitedly:
"Sister Erlong, I'm here! Long time no see! Um~ Um, how have you been recently?"
Fred was at a loss and felt a little embarrassed. After all, he didn't even change his clothes and put on his coat and came out to see his beloved on a whim.
