With a large number of merchants gone from River City, the event caused quite a stir.
But fortunately, Ray Walters’s ability to handle things was not bad, and the issue was quickly suppressed.
A few more days passed.
Conrad Schroeder suddenly made a public announcement:
As of today, the Schroeder Family will submit to Ethan Smith.
As soon as this news came out, it immediately stirred up the entire Chuzzle!
For a time, almost the entire province was discussing the matter.
From top aristocratic families to casual after-dinner conversations.
And the news just got more and more incredible, turning Ethan Smith into a god -like figure within just a few days!
“Mr. Smith, take a look at the nickname they’ve given you online.” One day, as Ethan Smith just got up, Edward Green came over with his phone.
Ethan Smith took the phone and saw that they had given him a nickname “King of Chuzzle”.
This suddenly gave Ethan a headache.
“Even at the peak of Schroeder Family, no one ever had such a title.” Edward Green sighed.
Ethan Smith remained silent.
For Ethan Smith, there were pros and cons to this.
But clearly, the cons outweighed the pros.
“Let them call me whatever they want.” Ethan Smith shook his head, not bothering to deal with the matter.
River City was an obscure small city, but it was surrounded by several well-known tourist cities.
To the east was South City, to the south was Bluein City, and the most remarkable one was White City to the north.
Although the two cities were only a hundred kilometers apart, the gap between them was huge.
It’s no exaggeration to say that White City was almost the most developed city in Chuzzle Province’s economy.
Because their tourism economy was flourishing, all industries were top-notch.
One day, Ethan Smith and Edward Green came to White City.
Their car was also loaded with a large amount of materials.
In addition to the herbs brought from the warehouse, there was also the bronze sword and the statue acquired in Shiglance City.
During this time, Ethan had asked Conrad Schroeder to find hundred-year medicinal materials, but he had returned empty-handed, causing Ethan to feel somewhat vexed.
So, Ethan turned his attention to White City.
White City had a newly developed scenic area with beautiful surroundings and sparse population.
It was said that many martial arts masters had come out of this place, but the changing times had not allowed those masters to develop the area. Fortunately, Conrad Schroeder was a grandmaster and had invested in the area.
Upon reaching the scenic area, the basic infrastructure was almost complete, but there were still many workers working.
After getting out of the car, Ethan Smith took a deep breath and felt the spiritual energy that pervaded the area.
“Although the spiritual energy is not very strong, it’s already a great place compared to other places.” Ethan Smith thought to himself.
He planned to set up a spiritual energy gathering formation near the scenic area to enhance his own strength.
As soon as they got out of the car, a professionally dressed woman quickly ran over.
She resoectfully said. “Are you the King of Chuzzle. Ethan Smith?”
Feeling a bit awkward hearing this title, Ethan Smith didn’t answer; Edward Green, however, confidently claimed, “Yes, he is the family head, the King of
Hearing this, a glint of reverence flashed in the woman’s eyes.
“They say you can kill a tiger with one punch and have even slaughtered a real dragon, is it true?” The woman eagerly asked.
Ethan Smith: “…What kind of nonsense are they spreading? It’s getting more and more absurd…”
After some small talk, they learned that this woman was the person in charge of the scenic area and also a top executive of a company under the Schroeder Family, named Neveah Rhodes.
As for Neveah Rhodes, Conrad Schroeder had always been a legendary figure! Conrad Schroeder’s submission naturally made Neveah admire Ethan Smith even more.
Along the way, Neveah expressed her respect for Ethan Smith non-stop.
Ethan Smith’s ears were about to grow callouses from listening. He helplessly said, “Miss Rhodes, in fact, all those rumors are false. I am not that great.”
But Neveah didn’t believe him; she gave Ethan Smith a thumbs up and said,
“Mr. Smith, you are really both strong and low-key!”
Ethan couldn’t listen any longer, so he waved his hand and said, “How about this, you go back to the office first, and I’ll walk around nearby by myself.” “I’ll accompany you? So that you won’t get lost!” Neveah enthusiastically said.
“No, really.” Ethan Smith declined politely.
Neveah had no choice but to agree, “Alright, just call me if you need anything.”
After dismissing Neveah, Ethan Smith couldn’t help but wipe the sweat from his forehead.
“What the hell is all this?” Ethan Smith said helplessly. Edward Green rolled his eyes, “You must be really happy inside, right?”
“Go to hell!” Ethan Smith kicked Edward Green’s butt.
Afterward, the two of them strolled around the scenic area.
The entire scenic area had just been established, and it was less than a week away from completion.
So, there were no tourists here, but there were quite a few workers working.
In the scenic area, there was a villa area, which was to be rented out to tourists.
Ethan Smith walked over to this villa area, picked a location with relatively strong spiritual energy, and stopped.
“This is the place.” Ethan Smith halted.
“Let Neveah know later to fence off the villa here.” Ethan Smith told Edward Green.
Edward Green quickly nodded, “Alright, I got it.”
Since they had chosen a location, Ethan Smith and Edward Green went to the office to inform Neveah Rhodes.
Just then, a sound came from not far away.
Turning their heads, they saw a beautifully dressed girl, scolding a worker who was working.
“Are you fucking blind? Do you know how expensive my shoes are?” The woman cursed loudly.
The worker’s face was full of fear. He was shaking and said, “I’m sorry, 1…1 really didn’t see it, 1…1’11 pay for it.”
“Pay? These shoes cost over ten thousand. Can you afford it?” The woman glared.
Hearing this number, the worker’s face suddenly became ugly.
“That expensive…” The worker whispered.
He took out a few hundred dollars from his pocket and handed it to the woman with a trembling hand.
“Here’s some money for now. When I get paid, I’ll give you the rest…” The worker said nervously.
However, the woman slapped the money away.
“Get your dirty hands off! What do you want standing so close to me? Are you trying to be a hooligan?” The woman scolded.
Throwing these words down, the woman turned to her phone and shouted, “Everyone, this stinky migrant worker wants to take advantage of me. What should I do?”
“I… I didn’t…” The worker panicked.
But the woman sneered, “You don’t know who I am, do you? I’m the famous internet celebrity Yoyo! Let me tell you, my viewers said that you have to kneel down, clean my shoes with your tongue, or they’ll report you for being a hooligan!”
