Chapter 230: Becoming Richest Person In Valeria City
Chapter 230: Becoming Richest Person In Valeria City
"City lord Bernard, you are really rich," Li Wei praised him with a light laugh.
Honestly, he was surprised at his wealth.
However, thinking he was an old monster who lived more than 100 years, it was okay to have so much money.
After all, his children and grandchildren weren't just for show; they were high-level adventures and gifted him such coin cards.
Not to mention his status as city lord earned a lot of money just by sitting down, which gave him wealth to purchase the coin cards.
'it's really great to be the city lord,' Li Wei thought to himself as he took coin cards from him.
Then, without further hesitation, he directly used all of them, gaining 12 billion coins and 3 million gold coins.
'Hiss! The feeling of getting rich by doing nothing is awesome!' he muttered in his heart before transferring 2.4 billion coins and 600k gold coins to the city lord through his guild card.
"Thank you, hero Lucifer, for helping me," the city lord thanked politely, as not many heroes' double the money of low-level people.
They will only send someone to purchase at a higher price and won't even care about meeting them.
"Haha city lord, no need to be polite; I am actually profiting a lot," Li Wei replied with a laugh as he only gave him some bones.
The real and tender meat all belonged to him.
"Then I will take my leave now," the city lord said, and hurriedly took his leave as Alessia was glaring at him for wasting time.
"Mr. Li, there is no need to waste time talking to everyone; you can just take the coin cards and send the money back without greeting them," she recommended.
Hearing her, Li Wei's mouth twitched a little as she was treating the city lord and everyone as air.
'Well, she is powerful after all,' he thought in his heart and nodded.
"Okay, I won't waste too much time," he replied.
Hearing him, Alessia nodded back and called for the next person.
It was guild master Maurice who came with ten 100-million-coin cards and two 100k gold coin cards.
After him, the priest Alfred came, bringing eight 100-million-coin cards and one 150k gold coin card.
Just these three old monsters made Li Wei quite happy, as he got a total of 24 billion coins and 2.8 million gold coins.
'I hope my clone can also find someone with a lot of money,' he thought in his heart as he controlled his second clone to look for some people who wanted to double their money.
Of course, the clone asked them to sign a non-disclosure contract, while in return the people asked him to add a condition of not harming the hero.
Only when the people decided to give him coin cards.
However, the amount was too low as they only gave him some 1–80-million-coin cards, as for gold coin cards, no one had it as these people were all below level 50.
Li Wei was a little disappointed at this but didn't care too much because he has more than two hundred people on the list.
The reason he was able to select this many people was because only a few tens of them were rich like old monsters.
Others were only considered rich as they didn't have 100k gold cards, but still they had 5k-80k gold coin cards, which added a lot.
So, he once again resumed his job, feeling quite pleased.
However, Alessia beside him wasn't in the mood to be happy because she didn't see Lucifer and Irene.
'Don't tell me they are not going to come,' she thought with a frown and became anxious as she thought of her cute cousin getting tricked by some ugly man.
'Lucifer! Just you wait!' she greeted her teeth in anger as she called the next person.
Just as she was doing this, the old man Lucius, who was hiding in the secret room, was also frowning.
"Looks like he won't be coming," he muttered with a faint sigh, but he didn't show too much disappointment because he expected something like this.
'Well, the Holy Pope will be coming here in a few days. At that time, no matter where he hides or how much priestess Irene helps him, it will be useless,' he thought in his heart and turned his gaze towards the basement where he locked Diablo.
"I just have to keep this clone alive for a few days, and then the Holy Pope will be able to find his real body without even waiting for it to be recalled or dispersed," he murmured to himself, clearly knowing that the main body will try to kill the clone.

However, he wasn't afraid, as he had many ways to keep the clone alive until the holy pope arrives.
So, he didn't care too much and once again started to scan the city in search of Irene and Lucifer.
Meanwhile, Li Wei continued to amass money for an entire hour because he had selected more than two hundred people.
Most of them gave him a lot of 10-100-million-coin cards, even more than the first ten rich people in the list.
However, their gold coin cards were only two or three with 5k-80k amounts in them.
The gold coin cards were rare in Valeria City and could be only bought from the capital or other places.
Because of this, Li Wei didn't gain too many gold coins.
Nevertheless, he was happy when he saw the total money he had earned today.
His today's earnings totaled 356 billion coins and 38.7 million gold coins.
With how much he had before, they became 416.2 billion coins and 46.2 million gold coins.

Gold: 46,231,000 (46.2 million) ? 38.7m+
Coins: 416,214,493,700 (416.2 billion) ?356b+

Looking at the coins, Li Wei couldn't help but become excited, as he was now the no. 1 richest person in Valeria City.
However, when he thought he needed more than 100 million gold coins to buy land, his excitement was washed over.
'Damn, even if I convert all 416 billion coins to gold coins, it will be only 41.6 million. If I add 46.2 million gold coins I have, then it will become 87.8 million gold coins which is still short of 13 million' Li Wei cursed in his heart.
He knew how hard it was to get gold coin cards as the people here brought their entire life's savings.
If not for his ten-time bonus, it would be a fool's dream to achieve such a number.
'Sigh, it looks like I needed to scam someone powerful if I need enough money to buy land and build a city,' he thought with a dejected look.

(1 gold coin = 10,000 normal coins)
(So, 416 billion = 41.6 million)
