Twisted Dreams-Chapter 148 - 120: Cultivating Zhu Dajun
Even though Du Yangming didn’t like Zhu Dajun, the underground boss, Zhu Dajun was still the member he interacted with the most.
Even though the points task of the Demon Club hadn’t been announced yet, Zhu Dajun had already gotten some news.
Kneeling on the ground, Zhu Dajun said excitedly:
"Please, master, give your orders!"
Li Yang flicked the ash into the ashtray and said:
"I want a bar.
An inconspicuous bar.
You must ensure the bar’s ’secrecy’."
The meaning of secrecy is that neither the black nor the white world should cause trouble.
Zhu Dajun immediately understood what Li Yang meant and showed a look of delight.
In South Sea, the Demon Club controlled almost all resources.
There was no need for Lord Death God to say anything; as long as any Lord Apostle spoke, who would dare to cause trouble at a bar under the Demon Club?
If Lord Death God could say to ensure the bar’s ’secrecy,’ it meant that this bar was also confidential to other members!
Lord Death God was going to give him a secret mission, cultivate him!
Zhu Dajun didn’t hesitate either, his head hit the marble floor hard, causing a crack in the marble.
He shouted loudly:
"Xiaozhu will absolutely not disappoint the master’s expectations!" 𝒻𝑟𝘦𝘦𝘸ℯ𝒷𝑛𝘰𝓋ℯ𝘭.𝘤𝘰𝘮
A faint, undetectable smile appeared on Li Yang’s lips.
Zhu Dajun was quite clever and understood things at once.
Li Yang had the idea of establishing a Demon Exchange.
He needed a pilot spot, which must be kept absolutely secret from everyone except the customers.
The Demon Exchange had three functions.
First, to acquire desire.
Second, to sell Extraordinary items.
Third, an experiment, an experiment to cultivate desire in large quantities.
Desire Power can be cultivated, Li Yang had tried it on Chen Yuqi.
The upcoming Demon Exchange could conduct several experiments, and after figuring out the rules, it could form a model for cultivating desire.
The function of the Demon Exchange is somewhat like the ’Pawnshop No. 8’ in TV dramas.
The biggest difference is that the Demon Exchange only acquires desire.
Or attract those with a thin aura of desire, cultivate their thin aura of desire into Desire Power, and then acquire it.
A real place, filled with Demon trading attributes.
Li Yang chose Zhu Dajun for this task for three reasons.
The first reason was that Li Yang believed the secrecy of a small bar was higher than that of a pawnshop.
Street bars are a common sight; street pawnshops attract everyone’s attention.
In South Sea, Zhu Dajun owned the most bars.
The second reason was that Li Yang did want to cultivate Zhu Dajun.
In the future, Apostles would become busier, and it would be best if the affairs of the South Sea Demon Club were managed as initially set, handed over to a Great Demon to manage.
Among all the members of the Demon Club, Li Yang fancied two people the most.
Su Yutang, Zhu Dajun.
Su Yutang and Zhu Dajun, one a queen of the business world, the other a king of the underground.
They had no official status but were top-tier elites of South Sea, pretty good choices for being Great Demons.
Well... what Li Yang liked most was their lack of official status; to Li Yang, it was very clean.
Their vision, ability, and will were not something ordinary people could compare to.
Su Yutang was already the head of the Cleaner System, and Zhu Dajun also needed some special responsibilities.
According to Li Yang’s plan, there would be two Great Demons in the South Sea Demon Club, each with special authority, developing while also balancing each other.
Of course, the premise was Zhu Dajun could withstand the cultivation.
As for the third point, it was by chance; today, helping Wang Tingting showed up at Rasputin.
The halo on Li Yang was too dazzling in the eyes of some.
A Death God, just for the daughter of a mortal, specially went to the bar to settle a score, this wouldn’t bring trouble to the Death God, but it could easily attract unwanted attention to Wang Tingting, the mortal girl.
Li Yang also didn’t want Wang Tingting to be associated with the Demon Club.
It would be better to let Zhu Dajun believe that coming to Rasputin today was mainly to find him, cultivate him, and give him tasks.
Helping Wang Tingting was just a by-the-way.
He could also earn a wave of Zhu Dajun’s ’overwhelmed’ loyalty.
Li Yang got up and went out:
"I’ll give you a week, contact the Apostle once it’s done."
Li Yang had been quite busy during this time.
After the points task was released tonight, the experimental building and operating funds would all be in place.
Kong Qianqiu’s laboratory was a major event.
Zhu Dajun quickly got up:
"Master, let me see you off."
Li Yang said, "No need."
Then he walked out of the door.
Two Vampires followed closely behind.
Zhu Dajun did not dare to forcibly see him off; he carefully cleaned the traces Li Yang left in the room with a cloth.
Fingerprints, ashes, even the chair he had sat on, were wiped meticulously.
.....
Downstairs.
Li Yang descended the stairs, surrounded by Lilith and Du Yangming.
Wang Tingting was still standing there foolishly, accompanied by Liu Yuanyuan and Liu Mengmeng.
Seeing Wang Tingting, Li Yang showed a gentle smile:
"I have to go now; if you have any issues in the future, you can find my friend here."
Du Yangming hastily bowed.
Wang Tingting blinked, unsure of what to do:
"Ah, ah, okay."
Mad Wolf quickly trotted over, with two tattooed henchmen carrying a slightly squirming sack behind him.
Everyone present was sensitive to the scent of blood and death.
The sack likely contained the bar manager.
No one felt sorry for the bar manager’s fate as he was a bad person.
After a few apologetic laughs, Mad Wolf pulled a bulging paper bag from his chest and respectfully handed it to Wang Tingting:
"Miss, this is the salary the bar owes you."
Wang Tingting hesitantly glanced at Li Yang and, with some confusion, said:
"It’s not this much; they only owe me three thousand."
Mad Wolf chuckled awkwardly:
"The extra is for your emotional distress."
Li Yang softly said:
"Take it if it’s given to you."
A look of longing flashed in Wang Tingting’s eyes.
This money was enough for her tuition and living expenses for college.
She wouldn’t need to work part-time anymore and could enjoy things like other girls, like having some milk tea and buying some cosmetics.
Shortly, Wang Tingting recalled Wang Shuzheng’s teachings.
She shouldn’t accept what’s not hers.
Her eyes fixed into determination as she shook her head:
"I only want my three thousand; I don’t need the extra."
A hint of admiration appeared in Li Yang’s eyes.
As expected of his sister, this integrity indeed had the elegance of an old friend.
Li Yang said to Du Yangming:
"She hasn’t had enough to eat, take her to get something."
With that, Li Yang tipped his hat and walked out of Rasputin Bar.
.....
At night, Emperor Nightclub, Demon Club.
The conference hall was filled with members wearing masks.
They were businessmen, underground bosses, musicians, painters, high-ranking officials.
At this moment, they were like a group of elementary students, listening attentively to Du Yangming on the stage.
After introducing the points system, Du Yangming said:
"This is the point system; do any of you have questions?"
The members present appeared thoughtful, some excited, and others sipping their coffee with deep eyes.
The members of the Demon Club weren’t fools; such a straightforward thing didn’t need to be repeated.
Du Yangming continued:
"Alright, next, I’ll issue two tasks.
By embedding the Demon Power into your membership card, you can obtain the task information."
