Divine Card Creator-Chapter 384 - The Energy Warriors Association Was Like Locusts!

What did this mean?

Lu Ming was shocked.

Did he use nude photos as collateral to obtain loans?

Did he dress in female clothing?

Damn!

The disciples of the Sword Card Master Association had resorted to this?!

He knew that not all disciples came from rich families. It was impossible that they could use Zhao Yunshan’s overbearing method to have a newly born card spirit!

Instinctively….

Lu Ming wanted to rush in, but he noticed that his disciple took out a camera, changed into maidservant’s clothing, and sat in front of the camera.

Well…

A live broadcast?

Lu Ming froze. Could that work as well?!

Afterward…

His disciple took out something that was long and thick from his backpack…

Ss——

Lu Ming gasped a breath of cold air.

Could it be…

That kind of live broadcast?!

That was horrifying!

But thankfully, the disciple took out a microphone. Oh, that was meant for the live broadcast. The disciple then threw a card.

Buzz—

The card flashed.

The entire room turned pink.

Afterward…

The disciple adjusted the beauty mode.

He removed his beard, reduced the size of his face twice, and lightened his skin tone twice…

It was perfect.

Ding—

The live broadcast was starting.

“Dear friends, long time no see. I am your camgirl, Xiao-Chuichui~”

The disciple said in an adorable voice.

Lu Ming was expressionless.

If he was not mistaken, his real name was Zhang Sanchui… Chuichui…

He felt like vomiting!

Lu Ming left silently.

He was somewhat in a panic. There were twenty new disciples in the Sword Card Master Association. Ten of them did not come from rich families. Apart from Zhang Sanchui who dressed in female clothing to do alive broadcast, what about the rest…

Shush!

Lu Ming made sure that his shadow stayed low to the ground and he began to conduct investigations quietly.

Afterward…

It was an eye-opener for him.

One of his disciples worked on a pink street. Under the moonlight, he would be weaving in and out of many pink shops. He had no idea what exactly he was doing.

Lu Ming was very worried.

Seriously…

There was one disciple who sold cultivation elixirs in his social circle.

Lu Ming went to take a look and his expression turned ugly.

“—Men should not be stingy over the cost of cultivation elixirs. Time was money. If one does not work hard to cultivate and to dress up nicely, one’s wife will leave with others. This is life. Love all you can and buy all that is needed! A man should treat himself better and lead a prideful life! Lu Ming once said that ‘Men should be more tough on oneself’…

Lu Ming turned sullen.

Damn it!

Why couldn’t they do something decent?!

Of course.

This was considered keeping a low profile.

There were some other disciples who stayed out the entire night, probably completing scary missions. Lu Ming thought about it and was in a panic. Therefore he told Li Haoran to conduct a check and was shocked to discover that there was a one-time deposit of a large sum of money in these few disciples’ accounts!!!

Yes.

It was impossible to earn enough money from working!

Therefore…

They borrowed money and worked to repay their debts. Their methods…

Unknowingly…

Lu Ming was reminded of Little Lu Ming who had a come to sudden death.

This would not do!

It could not be like this!

Lu Ming was serious about it. He gathered all the disciples who did not come from a good background and brought up the issue of loans. “All of you must not mess around!”

“We won’t!”

The disciples vowed. “President, rest assured. We borrowed the money so that we can cultivate faster after the conversion of vocation,” the disciples explained in unison.

Well…

The few of them looked at each other with a tacit mutual understanding.

Cough.

“President, we are fine.”

One disciple sounded very certain.

“How much is the interest? Where did you borrow the money from?” Lu Ming asked.

“The bank,” the disciples said frankly.

That was right!

They borrowed the money directly from the bank!

Although most of them owed a large amount of debts, they had an advantage over Lu Ming. They were graduates of The First Academy. As six-stars, they were eligible to borrow money from the bank…

Therefore…

Almost everyone borrowed money from licensed moneylenders.

It was legal and licensed!

It was stable!

They would face the problem of compounding interests…

“President, rest assured, we know what we are doing.”

The disciples felt grateful.

They knew that their president was concerned about them. People like them who did not come from a good background and were always being ignored. They felt a trace of warmth at his concern.

“Oh.”

Lu Ming was relieved. “As long as it is not campus loans…”

“Haha, of course not!”

“Exactly.”

“Master, rest assured, we are not fools. We would not do such things! Hahaha!”

“That’s right. Only fools would do that.”

The disciples laughed.

One fool fell silent for a moment.

He had a sudden urge to annihilate the entire association…

Calm down!

He had to calm down!

They were his grand disciples!

…

In that case…

The issue of borrowing money was settled.

Since they borrowed money through licensed moneylenders, for these disciples who were six-stars, it was not an issue.

However…

Lu Ming thought about it and felt somewhat bitter.

The other associations would provide their disciples with many resources and help them to work on their cultivation at full speed, but their association…

Well…

There were only empty promises!

There were no substantial resources!

In order to cultivate, the disciples had no other choice but to rely on other means…

→_→

Therefore…

Lu Ming and Li Haoran analyzed their situation and decided to help their disciples look for jobs. To put it more precisely, they looked for a decent source of income for all the future disciples.

“This can be done,” Li Haoran agreed.

These disciples had just joined them. After which, there would be another batch of high school graduates…

It would not do if there was no decent source of income.

They could not possibly keep relying on Zhao Yunshan to provide money…

After all…

“Yunshan’s money will be depleted one day.”

Li Haoran sighed.

Lu Ming was speechless.

Damn!

He was already thinking about the day it would be depleted?

“Zhao Yunshan said it himself.”

Li Haoran hurried to explain. “Recently his father got married… and he wants to have children. In order to avoid arousing suspicion and unnecessary conflicts, his father has transferred all the properties to him in advance. Therefore, Old Zhao decided to give every disciple from The First Academy a small welcome gift…”

Lu Ming was expressionless.

“Tell him to work diligently on his cultivation instead!”

A small gift…

The last time he mentioned giving them presents, it was two buildings…

Besides…

Damn, he did not give him any present!

He made a mental note of it!

“Okay.”

Li Haoran was secretly gloating.

To think that Zhao Yunshan was thinking of using money to corrupt his master’s soul and leave a good impression on him. It was impossible!

Master was not that kind of person!

“Enough of this.”

Lu Ming returned to the original topic.

Currently…

The most important thing was to help the disciples to find a decent way of making money!

Since the Sword Card Master Association strove to become elites, work on self-improvement and become invincible among their peers, they had to have sufficient resources and talents. Therefore, they needed to be able to earn money!!!

It was best that everyone carried seven-star Energy Cards with them…

Cough.

And they notified everyone in their circle of friends.

Well…

They had to let everyone know that if they joined the Sword Card Master Association or the affiliated college at the crossroads, they would have a bright and successful future ahead!

“Security?”

Li Haoran suggested.

He remembered that some associations worked together with security companies!

The associations had advanced combat capabilities and security companies would act as a platform to allocate assignments as well as to earn a small amount from commissions. This was a stable way of making money.

“No!”

Lu Ming declined firmly.

It is too dangerous!

There is no way of knowing how powerful the enemies are in the security assignments…

For example…

If someone were assigned to protect Jiang Feng, hahahahahahaha…

However, this was after all an idea. Therefore, Li Haoran made some calls to inquire and noted down the price offered.

Well…

The pay was very low!

It was astoundingly low!

Four-star security, one thousand yuan per day.

Five-star security, five thousand yuan per day.

Six-star security, fifty thousand yuan per day.

Ace security, price to be negotiated directly. (Peak six-star standard).

Lu Ming was dazed.

What the hell was with this pricing!?

What was a four-star?

Perhaps a four-star was nothing fantastic in Tian Du City, however, a four-star would already be calling the shots in Qing Ming City. Zhang Yang was once the president of an association!

And for people at this level…

They were only paid one thousand yuan per day to protect them?!

How about five-stars?

They were considered to be pillars of the industry even in Tian Du City!

They were very strong!

And for people at this level, they were only paid five thousand yuan per day!

Six-star…

They had the ultimate combat capabilities!

Even in Tian Du City, they were considered first class cultivators. It was appalling that it would only cost fifty thousand yuan to hire such a strong cultivator to protect them…

What the hell was with this pricing?!

“This is the pricing given to me by the security company. The price quoted by the customer might be higher,” Li Haoran explained.

“That’s not okay either!”

Lu Ming was speechless.

The pricing was too low!

Did he have any misunderstandings about Tian Du City? Or perhaps the labor costs of cultivators had dropped drastically?

Therefore, he asked around and was shocked to discover that the biggest partner of the security companies was the Energy Warriors Association…

Oh.

He understood now!

He had to ignore this option.

Bam!

Lu Ming closed the report in his hand and turned to discuss the next suggestion—To hunt down wild beasts to provide ingredients for all major restaurants.

However, Lu Ming instinctively looked at the ingredients supply unit as well as the association involved in this business—

Well… the Energy Warriors Association handled 70% of the deals.

Damn it!

Lu Ming was furious. They were everywhere!

“They have a large number of members…”

Li Haoran sighed.

Given the body strength of the association, one of them was comparable to a few hundred people…

They were everywhere.

“Pass.”

Lu Ming was expressionless. “Wait a minute. Do not take into account all the sectors that the Energy Warriors Association has taken up for more than 50%… no make it 30%.”

“Okay.”

Li Haoran suddenly broke out in a sweat.

Very soon…

They reached the last sector—takeaway.

Yes.

Takeaway.

Without the Energy Warriors who were like locusts causing harm to others, the pricing of this sector was finally normal!

After all, no matter how fast the Energy Warriors moved their legs, they were not as fast as the cultivators who were driven by energy. They could not last as long as well.

Well…

Lu Ming still remembered the spicy baby lobsters that Old Jiang ordered in the grave site.

That price…

Lu Ming instinctively downloaded an application and took a look at it. It was great. It would cost several thousand yuan to deliver spicy baby lobsters… It was equivalent to the pay that a five-star cultivator had for protecting someone for one whole day!

The pricing was acceptable!

Of course.

70% of the business was taken up by Summoners. After all, there were all kinds of strange summoned beasts. There were even people who specially trained huge birds for food delivery!

They were professionals in terms of food delivery!

However…

The Sword Card Master Association could do that as well!

Furthermore—

They had an advantage over them!

Look, a Summoner needed to ride a huge bird to deliver the food.

What if they were hungry?

What if they were sleepy?

What if they ate the food?

These were the inevitable problems of the food delivery industry. Never mind whether it was the big bird or the delivery man who ate the food. This problem still existed!

Besides…

Other than delivering food, they might deliver other stuff like elixirs!

The cultivation of elixirs was very extensive.

Under such circumstances…

What should one do?

Even if the Summoner Association had set some regulations, there were still people who were full of tricks. Some people would wait for the delivery man to go upstairs to deliver the meals and take the chance to steal the food…

It was very despicable.

Therefore, how could they solve these problems?

There was no other way!

However, it was different for the Sword Card Master Association!

Their Original Cards could fly and it was as fast as the big birds. It was more flexible and more compact. More importantly, it would not eat the food secretly!

Li Haoran felt that something was not right.

Afterward…

He suddenly came to his senses.

Damn!

Was he saying that the Original Card would be doing the food delivery?!

“Of course.”

Lu Ming’s eyes were shining. Think about it. As a Sword Card Master, all you need to do is to stay at home to research abilities! Your Original Card can cultivate by itself, do grocery shopping by itself, prepare meals by itself, wash dishes by itself, go to lessons by itself, take exams by itself, and earn money by itself!”

Buzz—

There was a green glow on Li Haoran. An Original Card glowed weakly. There seemed to be some whining.

Xiao-Xiaoshé was speechless.

This…

This was too ruthless!

It could vaguely see its future. In the near future, in its distant life, its beautiful scales would gradually fade and fall off…

In the end, it would turn bald.

…
