Chapter 598: You’ll Really Die if You’re Not Careful

Chapter 598 You’ll Really Die if You’re Not Careful

Manard stood beside Jeffree’s desk with a respectful expression on his face as he replied, “After you agreed for Mars to join Young Mistress Gloria at the Blue Suede Textiles Shop, the shop’s sales have not shown any marked improvements. They’re still incurring losses, but they’ve hired a lot of staff to sort out the textiles left over from past years.”

“Sorting out textiles from past years?” Jeffree’s brows furrowed upon hearing that as he said, “They can’t even sell the textiles from this year; what’s the point in sorting through textiles from the past years? Is Mars also becoming a child from interacting with one?”

Manard stood respectfully off to the side and didn’t say anything. He had no right to state any opinions on his young predecessor. In any case, Jeffree was only musing to himself rather than asking for his opinion anyway.

“There are still over 20 days left. If she can’t even manage a textiles shop well, then she has no right to become a candidate to the heirloom.” Jeffree turned back to the book he was reading and didn’t say any more on the matter.

“Will clothing like this… really be popular?”

In the back room in the Blue Suede Textiles Shop, there were three clothes designs laid out on the table in front of Mars and Gloria, and both of them were looking at the designs with uncertain expressions.

Among the three designs, one was a strapless long dress, one was a V neck open back dress, and the final one was a chiffon dress.

The first two dresses were simply too revealing for Gloria’s tastes. In the past, she had been extremely conservative with her dress code, and it was already a huge step for her to be able to wear a dress that could reveal her forearms now. Asking her to wear a dress that would expose her shoulders, collarbone, and even large sections of her back was simply unimaginable.

Furthermore, even the other women in Chaos City would most likely find it difficult to accept such bold dresses.

However, that open back V neck dress was simply far too luxurious to miss out on. There was a veil draped over the dress, lending it a sense of mystery and enigma. If one were to wear it to a ball, they would definitely become the center of attention.

These two dresses really are quite beautiful, though. I feel like I would look really good if I were to wear it for myself or wear it… for him to see, Gloria thought to herself as a blush appeared on her face. She quickly turned her attention to the final dress design.

This dress was comparatively a lot more conservative. The sleeves were loose and hung around halfway up the arms, and there was beautiful embroidery around the collar. There was also a golden chrysanthemum embroidered on the chest to the left, which seemed to instill a soul into the design, making it difficult for one to look away.

The dress wasn’t very different from the styles that commonly appeared on the market, but the intricate details on the upper half of the dress made it stand out.

Mars turned to Gloria with a serious expression, and said, “The third one should be a hit. As long as we promote it well, we should sell a lot of that dress. As for the first and second dress designs, I would advise you to discuss them further with Mr. Mag, Young Mistress. Perhaps he can alter the designs a little. Once we go into the mass production phase, there will be no turning back. We only have about 20 days left, so three designs is already our limit.”

Gloria contemplated the suggestion for a moment before nodding as she replied, “Alright, I’ll make a trip to Mamy Restaurant tomorrow morning. In the meantime, find the best seamstress and begin production of the third dress design. The seamstress doesn’t have to be the most renowned one, but she must have the best skills, and be able to create the perfect dress completely in accordance with these designs with no alterations made.

“Alright, I’ll get started on that right away.” Mars nodded before exiting the room. As he departed, a smile appeared on his face as he thought to himself, She may be a little girl, but you certainly can’t underestimate her. If this plan succeeds, she’ll be sure to secure her position as a candidate to the heirloom.

Outside the restaurant, Mag, who had changed into a clean set of clothes, helped Louis onto a horse-drawn carriage. He handed him a large box of mooncakes as he did so, and turned to the coach driver before instructing, “Please take this drunk customer back to the tavern. Remember to help him up the stairs; he has a little difficulty when walking.”

“I… I’m not drunk! I… I… can still drink…” Louis slurred as he sat in the carriage.

“Alright. Rest assured, I’ll get him to the tavern safe and sound.” The coach driver nodded in response. He normally wouldn’t be taking on jobs on such a rainy day, but he was offered a lot of money, so he decided to accept the job in the end.

Mag looked on until the horse-drawn carriage disappeared into the rain. The peaceful nature of his life was going to undergo a change following the events that had just taken place.

Josh and Sean had been after him for three years. Louis’ appearance was simply a catalyst that set some things into motion in advance. Thankfully, they were able to contain the situation.

They had left no evidence behind, but the deaths of the Cheetah and the Black Falcons were enough to tell Josh and Sean that he was in Chaos City. That was not good news.

Even this team of assassins had almost managed to kill him. If even more powerful enemies appeared in the future, his luck might not be so good.

Recovering his strength was very important, but even if he reached his former peak, the end result would only be a repeat of what had happened three years ago.

As such, he had to accumulate power in different ways rather than solely focus on strengthening himself. He had to surround himself with allies that would make him a force to be reckoned with even in the face of Josh and Sean rather than be forced to fight on his own as he did three years ago.

In the end, Mag wasn’t Alex. He was more of a businessman than a warrior, and he knew what to do at what times in order to secure the most benefits for himself.

Money isn’t omnipotent, but it can make countless powerful beings lay down their lives for you. As such, earning more money is imperative, Mag thought to himself. Take the Buffett Family as an example: they had no powerful beings among them, but there weren’t many people on the Norland Continent who dared to mess with them, as they had the support of rulers from all races, and there were countless powerful beings in their employment, creating a force that was very much to be reckoned with.

Looks like it’s time I approached the city lord’s castle and Young Mistress Scheer. I may be able to become the wealthiest person in the world just from selling clothes, but money without power is not going to be enough, either. Mag entered the restaurant and locked the door.

He stood beside Amy’s little bed and watched her adorable sleeping face for a long time. He leaned down and kissed her on the forehead, tweaking the wound on his left arm, which throbbed with acute pain, in the process. He furrowed his brows and winced slightly before quietly lying down in his bed.

In this world, you could really die if you weren’t careful.
