I Really Am Not The Lord of Demon Chapter 196 - Ran Bing's Choice

Chapter 196: Ran Bing’s Choice

There was no need for words or description.

Black Pharaoh’s will appeared in Ran Bing’s heart.

His conditions and requirements appeared in Ran Bing’s heart.

The great ruler’s currency, every yuan, was equal to a world’s origin unit.

In Ran Bing’s world, the origin was weak and not worth mentioning.

Even if this world was sold, it was at most worth one to two thousand yuan!

Such a world was destined to be destroyed!

But…

Ran Bing was lucky.

She was chosen.

The great ruler favored her.

So, she had the value of being invested.

The pharaoh of the pyramid was willing to provide her with a short-term loan.

The term was one month!

The interest was 10%!

She could borrow 52 yuan or 200 yuan.

As for how to repay it?

The will of the Black Pharaoh reverberated in her heart.

“You will know!”

That will was unquestionable!

Whether she wanted to borrow or not, the choice was up to her!

Ran Bing thought.

She understood that this was a trap!

A terrifying trap!

If she chose to borrow, she was afraid…

She raised her head and looked at the strange man in front of her. A new doubt appeared.

That was… would he have any objections?

Ran Bing suddenly thought of one of the messages sent by the Black Pharaoh: You are the chosen one.

So…

You have investment value!

Who chose her?

That strange man!

In other words, if she agreed to the loan, it might hurt the interests of the person in front of her!

If that was the case…

“This is a test!” Ran Bing immediately reacted.

The stories she had heard when she was young surfaced in her heart.

“Dear friend, did your golden ax or silver ax fall into the river?”

The honest protagonist gave an honest answer.

That was why he was rewarded!

Thus, Ran Bing knew what she should choose.

She rejected the proposal!

Because she knew that accepting the loan would not only mean a trap but also put her in danger!

The Black Pharaoh was not angry.

Her figure slowly faded in the pyramid.

It was as if she had never appeared.

However, when Ran Bing made this choice, she felt that the pressure exerted by this terrifying bookstore had lessened a little.

Moreover, she had also obtained the goodwill of some existences.

Obviously…

If she had accepted the black pharaoh’s suggestion just now.

Putting aside the strange person’s att.i.tude in front of her, she would immediately become the enemy of these existences who had expressed their goodwill to her!

At the very least, she would obtain their hostility!

“This was…a place with deep traps…” Ran Bing thought.

But the problem was…

If she refused the loan, how could she pay for it?

Could she not buy it?

The answer…

Was definitely no!

Vaguely, Ran Bing knew that once she entered the shop, it was impossible not to buy it.

What should she do?

Ran Bing looked at the strange man sitting opposite her. Sweat was dripping from her forehead.

Suddenly…

She had an idea and grasped the key!

“Instead of borrowing money from others…” she thought, “Why don’t I directly borrow from him?”

“Let him get the benefits directly?!”

With this thought, Ran Bing suddenly became enlightened.

So, she held the book in her hand and said to the person in front of her, “Sir, I like your book very much…”

“But…”

“I don’t have the money you need…”

That was the currency calculated by the origin of the world as a unit!

Not to mention her, even the castellan of the floating city probably didn’t have it!

“Can you sell the book to me first…” she earnestly pleaded, “In a few days, I will come and pay for the book!”

Since the black pharaoh was confident in lending money, then he had the confidence to take back the loan!

Therefore, Ran Bing knew that she could gather enough money to pay for the book!

Definitely!

But…

Ran Bing also knew that her persuasion was not enough!

How was it possible to take away someone else’s treasure with empty words?!

She had to mortgage something!

Therefore, she carefully thought about the things that might be valuable to her.

Finally, she touched the holster on her waist and pulled out the gun inside!

That was probably the most valuable thing she had.

It was something that only the elite warriors of the floating city could possess!

It was an electromagnetic pistol found in the a.r.s.enal of the Old World!

The pistol could instantly release powerful electromagnetic kinetic energy. Even a scarlet beast would be paralyzed if it was shot with that!

Of course, she knew that the gun might not be worth mentioning in the man’s eyes.

But it was just as the story said.

Sincerity was the most important!

She held the electromagnetic gun and handed it to the man. “I’ll give this electromagnetic gun to you as a mortgage…”

“I know… It’s not worth much…”

“But it represents my sincerity!”

“Please agree with it!” As she said this, Ran Bing bowed deeply!

… … ..

Ling Pingan looked at the gun that was handed to him.

It was silver and looked like it was made of some kind of plastic?

But the design was very nice!

He held it in his hand and felt it. It was not bad!

Ling Pingan tried to pull the trigger. It was just as the customer had said.

It was an electromagnetic gun.

The barrel of the gun emitted sparks of electricity.

It looked quite realistic!

Just based on the appearance, design, and effect, it was probably something custom-made.

Perhaps, just the gun alone was worth one to two thousand!

Thus, Ling Pingan smiled and handed the gun back.

“Customer, it’s just a book…” he smiled and said, “It’s not worth much!”

“If you like it, consider it a gift from me!”

In business, one had to learn to play the long game.

If he could use the cost of more than 50 yuan to gain a rich second-generation customer and also get her recommendation, she could bring in more customers!

That was a profit.

And the customer had already shown her strength!

That gun was proof!

If the customer was willing to spend a few thousand yuan to customize an electromagnetic gun, would they care about a few hundred yuan and a thousand books the next time they came?

Definitely not!

She would buy it in the blink of an eye!

Her friend would be the same as her!

Generous customers were Ling Pingan’s favorite customers!

Of course…

The most important reason was the potential that the customer displayed!

Look!

She was a rich second generation, but she was very polite.

That meant that her upbringing was very good!

She was completely unlike the pampered and spoilt second generation of the rich!

More importantly, she was very honest.

If she brought money, she would say she brought money. If she didn’t bring money, she would say she didn’t bring money. She didn’t hide it at all.

Even if such a person was penniless and wouldn’t come to Ling Pingan’s place in the future, he was also willing to give her the book!

The reason was very simple. Such a person would become a big shot sooner or later!

Perhaps, he would be able to see her on television many years later.

At that time, he could recall that such a great person had once bought a book in his bookstore.

Wouldn’t that be wonderful?

Thus, Ling Pingan smiled and handed the gun back to her. Then, he stuffed the “Gun Girl” comic into her hands.

… … ..

Ran Bing stared blankly at the electromagnetic gun that was stuffed back.

Everything that had happened just now replayed in her brain.

The strange man took her electromagnetic gun and pulled the trigger.

The electromagnetic gun that was supposed to release powerful kinetic energy emitted only a little bit of electricity.

Then, he stuffed the gun and the book into his hands.

“It’s just a book…”

“It’s not worth much…”

“If you like it, just consider it as a gift from me to you…”

Gift?

Gift?

Ran Bing remembered.

She was chosen! Chosen by this strange man!

Now, he gave her such a book of taboos.

Ran Bing looked at him and suddenly became excited.

She bowed deeply. “Thank you so much, sir…”

“I don’t know how to repay you!”

She heard him said, “Buy some books the next time you come!”

“It’s best… if you could introduce a few friends and come to my place to buy books!”

Ran Bing looked up. “Is this his purpose?”

“No!”

Ran Bing, who grew up in the floating city, knew very well the dangers of this world!

She also understood how terrifying and powerful the strange man in front of her was.

Perhaps, as long as he wanted to, he only needed to raise his hand to destroy the world.

So, he had a deeper intention?

But…

What was his intention?

To make her buy a few more books the next time she came?

In other words, he predicted that the next time she came, she would be able to bring the money he needed?

The money that was formed from the origin of the world!

How could he know?

She touched the book in his hand.

Ran Bing had a premonition that this book would give her the answer!

Perhaps, when the time came, all the answers would be revealed!

Thus, she took the book and bowed again. “Thank you for your generosity, sir!”

She looked at the thick fog outside and was about to ask how she should leave.

A metal flashlight was handed to her.

“The fog is heavy, take it…”

“Perhaps it can help you find your way home!”

The flashlight in her hand felt similar to the flashlight in the Old World.

But Ran Bing knew that it was the proof to leave this place.

It was also the pa.s.s to leave in the fog!

“Thank you!” She bowed deeply again.

No matter what the terrible strange man’s intentions were.

Ran Bing knew that, at least for now, he was still kind.

And…

Ran Bing understood that he was the only person who could change the fate of the current world.

So, Ran Bing did not lie at all!

… … ..

Standing at the door and watching the customer, using his flashlight and disappeared into the distance in the fog.

“What a polite customer!” Ling Pingan said, “Maybe she was born in a scholar’s family!”

“One of her parents must be a teacher!”

Thinking of this, Ling Pingan nodded. “It must be!”

A child born in a teacher’s family could be recognized at a glance.

Being polite was one thing, but the temperament on her was another.

Thinking of this, Ling Pingan remembered.

He hugged Bastet and said, “In a few days, it will be Teacher’s Day!”

“I have to prepare to send greeting cards to the teachers!”

Even though he had lost contact with his teachers and cla.s.smates after graduation.

But every year, on Teacher’s Day, he would send greeting cards to the teachers.

That was a kind gesture and a form of grat.i.tude!

Especially those teachers who had taught him physics, chemistry, and mathematics.

Ling Pingan had always felt very guilty!

… … … ..

Holding the flashlight in her hand.

Ran Bing walked out of the fog.

She returned to the desolate world.

The wind and sand whistled on the surface.

There was no sign of the Scarlet Beast in front of her.

Ran Bing turned around and looked behind her. The fog had disappeared without a trace.

It was as if it had never appeared.

The flashlight in her hand shone forward.

The strong light shone on a hill.

She suddenly thought of something and hurriedly turned off the flashlight!

She understood that she had to protect it well and use it carefully!

Because that was proof and a pa.s.s!

Ran Bing kept the flashlight in her pocket and then lowered her head to look at the book in her hand.

On the cover, an evil eye lit up one after another.

They stared at Ran Bing.

Terrifying taboos echoed in Ran Bing’s mind.

Thus, Ran Bing knew how to nurture the firearm spirit and modify the firearm!
