Seeing this, Roland sighed “As expected, the crowd always respects the strong, if I had screwed up with Mr. Huo's treatment of this group of docile people would have bitten my head off but because l succeeded l enjoy such respect, such a funny belief.”

[ Ding!!! Auxiliary mission: Get into the good books of Yuri passed. You have successfully opened the system's shop]
As soon as Leo finished talking, a high-rising building firmly occupied the deepest parts of Roland’s mind.
The floors of the building were decked with gold and other precious treasures that would make the world crazy if they were let out.
The building stretched into the white clouds above it, but the first door was open.
As Roland stepped into it, he saw numerous Godly treasures ranging from rare medicines, precious stones, and food, each of them had a point tag signifying their price.
[Ding. Auxiliary mission: face slap the doubting crowd passed, received favorably halo (you will be able to see other people's favorability for you and look into their stats)] Leo interrupted Roland pulling him out of the system's shop.

Seeing the improvement in his stats, Roland was beyond excited, especially the favorability of halo. As a businessman, Roland understands the importance of having a good relationship with other people.
The increase in all his stats made his brain clearer and his charm increased all the more. Looking in a mirror, Roland was smug "Ah, even l am in love with myself, can any mortal handle me?”
"Leo, can l exchange system points for money?”
[ Yes, you can, the conversion rate is 1000yuan = 1BP,the conversion rate increases as your system-level rises]

(Blue sea manor)
Roland walked into Blue Sea Manor and was warmly greeted by the receptionist “Hello sir, welcome to Blue Sea Manor, do you have an appointment with the sales consultant or are you here for official business?”
But before he could even answer, the receptionist continued.
"Please, have a seat in the lounge, what will you have? tea or coffee?”
“Coffee please, " Roland replied, and soon the receptionist returned with hot steaming coffee.
Roland instantly developed a good impression of the front desk lady and just as he was about to state his reason for coming, a rude, arrogant voice cut in.
"Bella, how many times have l told you to read the appearance of people before serving them. you took out our expensive coffee for this poor jobless man who came to munch on free food. just look at the way he is drinking the coffee…it's obvious he hasn't had anything so tasty.”
Roland's smile fell as quickly as it rose. How did he look jobless? Fine. He wasn't dressed in corporate or branded clothing, just a sweatshirt and pants, but does that make him jobless?
"Miss, l don't think it's right for you to judge me so quickly, every customer who comes into this place deserves respect, and besides you are not attending to me, so what gave you the right to barge into my business?” Roland Roared glaring at her.
" Tch, how dare you talk about respect? You don't deserve respect. You are just an uneducated fool…you don't know the immensity of heaven and earth. You may have stolen some chump change from some poor ghost like you outside, and you are here to flaunt your ill-gotten cash…well, you can scram before l call security to toss you out. Also, get your butt out of the seat, it's worth more than your entire life.” the lady said rudely.
"Alissa, stop this, how dare you humiliate the client this way? this behavior is simply sinful and will get to the management.”
"Sir, l deeply apologize to you about this matter. Please do not be offended,” Bella pleased as she gave a deep bow to Roland.
"Bella, you are just a joker, you will report to the management, jokes on you..go on. l would like to see you report to the management. Although the sides they will take remain unknown.” Alissa said smugly.
She enjoyed the ever-changing countenance of Bella…from rage to helplessness to sadness. It gave her a sense of fulfillment. She and Bella have always been competing well back in college. Bella was every boy's muse, the best student, the goddess from heaven, and all…damn she was so envious, why wasn't she noticed? she was beautiful too.
After school, she got a job here, and then she basked in everyone's praise, but Bella just had to get a job here too and instantly, she was forgotten like an old shoe, that's why she vowed to stop at nothing to crush Bella under her even sacrificing her self-respect to get in the good books of the manager.
Finally, she has gotten what she wanted, even if Bella reports, the management will do nothing, and Bella might even be reproved.
As Alissa thought of this, her smug face widened all the more till her eyes couldn't be seen.
"You ......shameless.” Bella managed to spit out in anger, she knew management would not, after all, it was no news that the manager had been in and out of Alissa's skirt, but she still felt bad for Roland, she couldn't understand why a person can hold so much grudge.
Roland just glanced coldly at Alissa and made a mental note to deal with her. Because Alissa's voice was very loud. it attracted the attention of several other sales consultants and customers who clustered around them.
"What happened?" a male voice sounded as a middle-aged man with a greasy face and a large pot-bellied stomach arrived.

Deception
Chapter 15 “Boom” The team took a step into the lush orchard.“Guys, where are all of you?” Roland called as he looked around the quiet environment.“Where is this place, "Roland said as he found himself in front of a narrow street.“Rass, Kira,” where did the heck are you guys, maybe we got displaced”“Wait, the street feels so familiar, when did I come here?” Roland thought as he continued going down the narrow path.“Brother, what are you doing outside? The guests are waiting for you, it is your big day today." A voice he would never forget even if he died sounded.“James, now I remember, this street is the road to Naomi’s family house. This scene! My engagement with Naomi. But why? Why am I here? "Roland muttered.“Brother, hello brother, are you there?”The smiling James waved at Roland. He looked puzzled at his elder brother spacing out.Seeing the young, innocent-looking James, Roland sneered in disgust. What is an actor? His engagement happened 3 years ago, but he was poisoned
Survival battle
Chapter 14“Honey, we need to be strong, we can't give up, we just have to find a way to get out of here and look for Uncle Roland so that we can have our revenge,” Sean said.“Uncle Roland, Mom, don't kid me, Uncle Roland is dead, James that bastard that himself, and even if he isn't, you think he'll fare better than us here, he can't even protect himself, let alone us,” Nina said sarcastically.Far off in the distance, a swarm of tiny insects that seemed to cover the sun was rapidly approaching. Their teeth were razored sharp with a desire to kill. They were the eye warts.“These damn little insects can't cut us some slack?” Nina cussed as she got up and continued running.“Nina, over there, there appears to be a tunnel, let's hide there,” Sean said pointing at a narrow tunnel that opened its mouth wide like a hunting jaguar.“No, Mom, the tunnel is too small, hiding there will narrow our chances of escaping, we need a wider space.” Nina refused.As Nina was still suggesting an alte
The Journey
Chapter 13“OK team, brace up! We are heading into the Smoky Hollows to rescue Sean and Nina. Let's all check out weapons, and be sure everything is in good condition.” Roland said to the selected soldiers who were to accompany him on the mission to the Hollows.“I've got my sniper ready. No one can escape my sight. Roland, relax, just lead the way, be rest assured that we'll have your back.” Ram, the sharpshooter, responded.I have set up the computer systems for surveillance. We must know the enemy's movements. Any Intel on James’s men's hideouts?” Marie, the computer operator, asked.I have the coordinates. James’s lair is well guarded. Kira, recheck the map. Rass, prepare some extra weapons, let's have them in excess, just in case.” Roland commanded.“Location Confirmed, Roland. The map shows a direct route, but there's a potential desert along the way. We need to be prepared for harsh conditions.” Kira advised.“I've gotten a couple of extra grenades and some high-powered rifles.
Alliance
Chapter 12“Roland wants to sign a partnership deal with me, he wishes to help me fight my long-lost battle in return for the Dragon head Legion whenever he needs it. Do you think it's a good idea? We barely know him, though he saved my life.” Grandpa Huo sought the opinion of his daughter.Yuri, who had already fallen in love with everything about Roland, couldn't wait to give Grandpa Huo to go-ahead to ally with Roland, “This will bring us even closer to each other and more, Roland is a very kind and rich man. He's everything I want in a man.” She muttered to herself.“Grandpa, I think you should consider Roland’s proposal and give in to his request, I believe he has the connections and power to help us like he said, considering the way he bravely saved your life back then on our way to the hospital.He gave you the kind of treatment the doctors couldn't give you in years, Grandpa. I believe in him and I strongly agree with his proposal.” Grandpa Huo nodded in agreement with what h
The Proposal
Chapter 11“Let it out, Roland, let's see how it goes.” Grandpa Huo replied in anticipation.Roland picked the next seat close to Grandpa and whispered into his ears as if he didn't want any other person to hear about it. Even though no one was present except the two.“I have resources, connections, and means to help you in your quest for justice. In return, you lend me the strength of the Dragon Head Legion when needed. Let's forge a partnership, Grandpa.” Roland whispered. “How do you think this will work? The Dragon Head Legion has long been in hiding, coming out now will mean great harm to all its members. More so, it has been a forgotten past in my life that I don't wish to reopen. I know I owe my life to you for saving my life, ask for anything else, I will grant it. But this is an impossible task, Roland.” Grandpa Huo replied to Roland as he strolled to his luxurious balcony in disagreement with Roland's proposal.Roland didn't relent, he knew he could convince Grandpa Huo i
The Deal
“Young man, have some tea,” Grandpa Huo said as he poured a rich Chinese herbal tea into his teacup.As Roland made himself comfortable, Grandpa Huo began “Young man, I would like to extend my appreciation to you for saving my life, doctor smith made sure to mention your help to me, l had previously prepared a check to thank you but you're acquiring villa number one shows you do not need money.”“So I will owe you a favor, for one time, anything you ask of me will be done for you.”“Tell me about yourself, l am curious as to what a Chinese military man is doing in New York City, or rather America." Roland mused.The smile on Grandpa Huo's face fell as he sized Eren up, “Kid, don't meddle in things above you, you might end up dying without a corpse.”“I can't help it. I want to know whether or not l die in the process is for me to worry about.” Roland replied, seeing the secretive nature of Grandpa Huo, he was more convinced that his identity was really important and possibly dangerou
