Chapter 1575: What Does It Make Of Our Background As One Of The Four Major Families?
Rena took a look at her palm, which was cut open by a small sharp stone. She got up, pulled out a few certificates from her cloth bag, and seriously said, “This is the property deed with the city lord’s castle stamp of approval. I am now the owner of this shop. Let me warn you. If you continue to occupy my shop and attack me, I will invite the city lord’s castle to intervene.”
“You... You think that just by claiming that it’s yours, it’s really yours? I think that your certificate is fake.” The orc’s expression changed a little when he saw the property deed in Rena’s hand. However, he quickly raised his volume, and said, “This is Bennett’s shop, which is also the Marquis Family’s shop. Our master said that if someone comes to make trouble, then we will all go to the city lord’s castle. Let’s see how the Marquis Family’s property ended up as someone else’s!”
After saying his piece, the orc turned around to go back into the shop, and slammed the door shut.
“These fellows...” Rena clenched her fists angrily. When her finger touched the wound on her palm, she groaned in pain.
“Rena, are you alright?” Firis, who happened to be on the way back to the dormitory, went up quickly to help Rena pat off the dust on her. She looked at the wound on Rena’s palm, and angrily and worriedly said, “Did those fellows hit you?”
“Firis, I’m alright. I just wanted to go into the shop, but they refused to let me in and pushed me. It’s just a small wound,” Rena said with a smile and a shake of her head as she watched Firis blow the sand off her palm and bandage her palm up carefully.
Firis furiously said, “These fellows are rogues! This shop is already yours, but they kept claiming it to be theirs, and even refused to leave! When Boss and the others come back, they’ll definitely uphold justice for you!”
“It’s alright. I have the property deed. They can’t get away with it.” Rena shook her head. However, she still a little worriedly said, “The problem is that the renovation work for the shop is almost done, and we should already start hiring these two days, but we’ve already wasted two days here, and I have no time to make the soup base and go to the market. Now, all these tasks have to be put on hold.”
“It’s alright. I think that the hot pot soup base you made yesterday was superb. Business is sure to be great if you can reach that standard with just substitute ingredients,” Firis said with an encouraging smile.
“It’s still not good enough.” Rena shook her head. She rather seriously said, “I think that there’s some problem with the tripe yesterday, and we need to look for a better supplier. There’s still also a lot to improve when it comes to the hot pot soup base. There are still a lot of problems unsolved.”
“Then I’ll accompany you to the market. Anyway, I don’t have anything on in the afternoon. I’m worried that those fellows will find trouble with you again. At least I can protect you when I’m around,” Firis said with a smile as she wrapped her arms around Rena’s arm.
“Mm-hmm. Thank you, Firis.” Rena smiled, and both of them left hand in hand.
The orc who pushed Rena just now went up to the second floor, and hesitated a little as he watched the young man standing by the window. “Young Master, she’s gone, but...”
“But you didn’t expect that she’d already gotten her hands on the property deed, right?” Jonah frowned as he watched the two young ladies walk into the distance. There was some anger in his voice.
The orc went up a little, and softly said, “Do you think there’s a need for us to...”
“Snatch the property deed?” Jonah smiled. He turned around and looked at that orc gloomily. “You fool! Do you know how Bennett went down? Now the entire Chaos City is in jitters, and you’re still dumb enough to say something like that?
“Besides, Bennett just went down a few days ago, and this shop already belongs to this woman. Do you think there is really no relation between her and the Gray Temple?”
“I’ve investigated her. This woman comes from the slums. She has no father, and grew up with her mother. She used to be an accountant in a small shop before this. Just a while ago, she became a service staff member at Mamy Restaurant. I doubt she has any backers,” the orc said hesitantly.
“Idiot! Do you think the city lord’s castle just chose a random person to elevate from poverty?!” Jonah was shaking mad. He waved his hand, and said, “Send out a warning. Without mine or my father’s orders, do not lay a hand on this woman or Mamy Restaurant. No one will have a good ending if they get involved in this restaurant.”
“But Master said that we have to get this shop. If this woman continues coming...”
“I will settle things on Father’s side. Bennett has fallen, and it is both a good thing and a bad thing to the Marquis Family. Watch your words in the future. In the future, people will not spare us on account of Bennett anymore,” Jonah warned sternly.
“Yes!” the orc answered quickly.
Jonah turned to walk downstairs. As he walked, he ordered, “Prepare the carriage. I want to go over to the teahouse.”
The horse-drawn carriage quickly pulled over at the tea house named “Ben”. This was the most lavish teahouse in Chaos City. Because Bennett was arrested, this place had been closed for days. However, the seals pasted by the people from the city lord’s castle and the Gray Temple were already taken down. There were even a few big demons and orcs guarding by the door.
“Young Master,” all of them greeted respectfully when they saw Jonah alight from the horse-drawn carriage.
Jonah glanced at the seals that were thrown aside with a frown, and asked, “Is Father inside?”
“Yes, Master is inside,” answered one demon as he opened the door for Jonah.
In the opulent tea room, Bowen was leaning by the fireplace relaxedly with a boiling pot of tea in front of him. He had a mink blanket covering his legs as he watched the steam rise slowly from the pot. When he saw Jonah enter, he smilingly said, “Take a seat.”
“Father, isn’t it a little inappropriate to remove the seal without the Gray Temple’s permission?” Jonah asked straight away after taking a seat in front of Bowen.
Bowen picked up the teapot, filled a cup with tea, and placed the cup in front of Jonah. Smiling, he said, “Try this tea from Vic Mountain.”
“Father...” Jonah called out worriedly. He didn’t pick up the teacup.
“Jonah, do you think Bennett’s incident is a good thing to us or a bad thing?” Bennett asked.
Jonah thought carefully, and said, “Bennett had done many illegal things, so there is a chance that he might implicate the entire family one day. Now that he’s caught, it means that the Marquis Family has gotten rid of a ticking time bomb. It’s not considered a bad thing.”
“Whatever Bennett had, was all part of the family. But, it all belonged to him, and not us. Now that he was arrested, and he left us with all this mess, we definitely are not going to take it. However, some of the things, if thrown away, are a great loss to us and to the family.” Bowen took a sip of tea and smiled eerily. “It’s okay for us to forgo those assets that aren’t clean, but for those that we should take, we can’t let a single one of them go.
“Don’t worry about the city lord’s castle and the Gray Temple. The Marquis Family has been in Chaos City for so long. If we can’t even hold on to our family’s assets, what does it make of our background as one of the four major families?”
“But...”
“Just watch. These assets are ours.” Bowen broke into a smile, and motioned for Jonah to drink the tea.
