Doomsday Code

Chapter 209 Popular Fried Chicken

Small pieces of snow slid down Baron Kekeber's face from the broken snowball. He reached out to wipe the snow off his face, and then looked at the open space in the backyard.

At this moment, the ones who were most frightened were not Miss Finier who had done something wrong, but the two little maids, Sophia and Jenny.

When Baron Kekeber looked over, Sophia and her two daughters immediately bowed and apologized:

"Master Baron, it's all my fault. I didn't take good care of the young lady. Please punish me."

When Finier saw Sophia and the other girl pleading guilty, she immediately stood in front of them and said with a smile:

"Father, this was all my daughter's idea. I also threw the snow just now. Father, please don't blame Sophia and the others."

Ke Ke Bo just snorted coldly and said:

"Why is your father such an unkind old fellow?"

Then Baron Kekeber looked at Chen Cheng who was standing beside him and said:

"Come with me to my study. I have something to tell you."

After saying that, he turned and went towards the study.

Watching Baron Kekeber leave, Finier and Sophia, who was apologizing, both looked at him with puzzlement, based on their understanding of Baron Kekeber.

Finier was playing in the snow with the servants here without caring about her status as a noble lady. Baron Kekeber would definitely scold Finier for a long time and then punish these maids.

Chen Cheng patted the snow off his hands and was about to follow.

At this time, Finier grabbed Chen Cheng and said:

"He's been acting a little strange today. He didn't even mention me. You'd better be careful later. If it doesn't work, just bring up the Earl. Don't worry, my father won't dare to do anything to the Earl's people."

Chen Cheng looked at Finier's serious expression and he really didn't know whether he should complain or not.

People always say that a daughter is her father’s little cotton-padded jacket, but you are helping me deal with your father. I’m afraid your little cotton-padded jacket is leaking.

When Finier saw Baron Keckber turned around, she let go of her hand, gave Chen Cheng a look that said this is how it should be done, and then made a gesture of encouragement.

Come to Kekeber's study.

This was the first time that Chen Cheng came to the study of the Baron's Mansion in Huidun City. The size of this study was much larger than that of the Baron's Mansion in the small town of Nakekeber.

Baron Cockeber took off his hat and coat and put them on the coat rack. Then he took out a letter from his coat pocket and handed it to Chen Cheng, saying:

"Take a look. This is what the Earl asked me to bring to you when I went to his place just now. You can go to his place after you have read it."

Chen Cheng took the letter. The sealing wax on the envelope had been opened, and there was a mark on the corner of the envelope that only Chen Cheng and Earl Huidun knew.

Chen Cheng opened the envelope and found several sheets of letter paper filled with chapters of a third-rate novel titled "The Making of a Gangster Boss".

Chen Cheng did not care about the content of the chapters, but arranged them according to the secret code he knew in advance, and translated and wrote down the actual content of the letter.

This was a letter from Kailan City, and the sender was Hausen, who had already returned to Kailan City to become the big brother under the arrangement of Chen Cheng and Huidun.

The reason why Chen Cheng took a fancy to Hausen was because he saw the future development crisis of Huidun City. With Huidun's status, as long as Huidun City showed signs of emerging, the other princes of the kingdom would definitely pounce on it like sharks smelling blood.

Kailan City is a development bottleneck for Huidun City. Almost all of Huidun City’s outward communication channels pass through Kailan City.

In fact, Kailan City was the last city in the westernmost part of the Kingdom of Moss. It was only three hundred years ago that a small city developed here because it was an important land transportation route for humans and elves.

Later, due to the collapse of the Thorn Flower Empire, land transportation was blocked and Huidun City became the westernmost city of the kingdom.

The secret letter that Hausen just sent roughly said that a big shot had recently come to Kailan City, and all the gang leaders in the city had received orders from the city lord and those minor nobles that no violent conflict must occur in the city before the big shot left.

At the same time, the gang that Hausen recently joined and several other gangs sent people to investigate the official road to see if there were any hidden paths other than the official road.

Hausen joined the gang and made many contributions, becoming a small leader. This time, he happened to be the leader of their gang who went out to inspect the official road.

After Chen Cheng finished reading, a small flame circle lit up in his hand, and then the pieces of letter paper were burned to ashes.

Baron Kekeber, who was pouring himself a cup of hot tea, shouted:

"Be careful with open flames. This is the study. Don't set my room on fire."

Upon hearing this, Chen Cheng took the burning letter to the window, opened the window, and then threw the almost burnt letter out.

"Don't worry, if it really catches fire, I will immediately put it out for you with the water ball technique."

Chen Cheng said as he closed the window.

"Come sit down and let's talk."

Kekeber pointed to the chair opposite him and spoke.

Chen Cheng clapped his hands and came to the opposite side of Kekebo, but he did not sit down. Instead, he stood and said:

"Just don't do it. Otherwise, when you talk later, it will sound like I'm scolding my son."

Ke Kebo raised his eyebrows, then smiled bitterly and said:

"You are getting more and more courageous now, and I am the only one who wants to scold you. Isn't the idea that the girl gave you just now a good one?"

"You heard all this, don't say that what the young lady said is really true, you may never be able to get out of this cage of identity in your lifetime.

With your current wealth, are you still afraid of him, no matter whether he is an earl or not? If Huidun dares to scold you, just tell him directly that his important assistant Brown is still in your hands, and then you will be the one to scold him. "

Chen Cheng smiled and joked to Kekeber.

"You are such a talkative kid, be careful not to let the Earl hear you. If he doesn't scold you, he will scold me, an old man, for not taking good care of you."

"Okay, I won't talk to you about this anymore. Tell me what we, the Kekeber family, should do next."

"What can you do? You are a little noble trapped by your noble status. What else can you do? Just follow Huidunmang."

"I tell you the truth, old Brutus has become very popular in front of the Count because of your banking plan.

Now everyone knows that he is the most popular person in front of the Earl. "

As Kekeber spoke, he made a few arrogant expressions on his face, which made Chen Cheng feel sour even from a distance.

"Oh my god, you really want to compete with him? He is a gambler, and the kind who is willing to take risks when all is said and done. How can you compare with him?

You just work hard with Huidun, and our family has recently started a porcelain business, so you can invest all the money you earn into Huidun Bank."

Chen Cheng looked at Kekebo's still somewhat unbelieving eyes. He finally sighed, then moved closer to Kekebo and said:

"Let me give you a tip-off. In a few days, Huidun will call you, the remaining nobles, to a meeting. Then you will directly support Huidun's words.

And when you come back, don't worry about the construction of Kekeber. Leave it to Butler Carter and focus on it.

If you believe in me, then do it wholeheartedly. I guarantee that if you succeed, you will be a hotshot in front of Huidun."

Kekeber looked up at Chen Cheng, and just when Chen Cheng thought he was going to ask some profound questions, he suddenly said something.

"What is the hottest thing?"

Well, Baron Cockber would never understand this joke.

Chen Cheng scratched his head awkwardly and said:

"The dish is called a hot fried chicken, which means you will be very popular, even more popular than that old fox Bruce."
