Demon Island
Veins bulged on Makarov's forehead.
He cursed loudly,"This little bastard!" Did he want to be a sorcerer or a landlord?”
Many people complained in their hearts,"He probably wants to be a landlord more." However, the guild leader was in a fit of anger. No one dared to say anything and could only hold it in. Their expressions looked very strange.
Makarov also realized that there was something wrong with his words, but the president could not lose face in front of his own members.
"Sarusok! Go and call that brat Ye Xin back!”
"Yes, sir!" Sarusok immediately ran out. Sarusok's magic was Divine Feet, and his running speed was very fast. It was the most convenient for him to send messages.
At this moment, in a shop on a bustling street, the shop owner was complaining to Ye Xin in a low voice,"Mr. Ye, my business hasn't been doing well recently. Can you settle it together next month?”
"Alright! No problem."
"Really?"
Ye Xin smiled and said," Of course, I'm the most reasonable person. I don't even want to pay it together next month. I can even pay it together the month after next!" If you pay the rent together next month, the rent will be doubled. If you pay the rent together next month, the rent will be doubled. When do you plan to pay?”
"This is against the rules!" The shop owner's face froze.
"Rules? My words are the rules! The best location and the cheapest rent. If you still can't make money, it means that business is not suitable for you. I advise you to go back to your hometown and raise pigs. If you serve them well, you'll definitely earn money and not lose money. Alright, cut the crap. When do you plan to pay? I still have dozens of tenants who haven't collected rent.”
"I-I'll hand it over now." Ye Xin's name was famous in Magnolia Town.
On one hand, Ye Xin was a powerful S-grade sorcerer from the Fairy Tail Guild, and on the other hand, he was a real estate tycoon in Magnolia Town.
There were many houses and shops in good locations, and at least two or three out of ten of them belonged to Ye Xin. Moreover, they were only for rent and not for sale.
Fortunately, Ye Xin's rental price was not high and he was also very helpful. Ye Xin's reputation in Magnolia Town was very good, so some unscrupulous merchants found all kinds of small faults.
They thought of ways to reduce the rent. They didn't dare to go back on their word. In the past, there were people who went back on their word but were beaten up by Ye Xin. After that, no one dared to not pay Ye Xin's rent. At most, they would argue with Ye Xin.
After a while, Ye Xin put away the money and walked out. He was in a very good mood. This was his happiest day of the month, and also his most unhappy day.
The happiest thing was that he had collected a large amount of rent again. Seeing so much cute money coming into his account, anyone would be in a good mood. Moreover, this was different from the feeling of earning money through hard work.
No matter how much money he earned, he had to work hard. No matter how little the rent was, he had to take it lying down. Moreover, his rent was not small.
The most unhappy reason was that he had to wait another month to harvest the leeks.
After harvesting the leeks, he could buy a house again. Then, he could harvest more leeks. This was the life he wanted.
Suddenly, someone shouted,"Ye Xin!”
Ye Xin turned around and saw Sarusok running towards him like a gust of wind.
"Ye Xin, the president has something urgent to tell you.”Sarusok said breathlessly.
"Urgent matter? What urgent matter? Is it as urgent as me collecting rent? If not, then wait until I collect the rent.”As he spoke, Ye Xin prepared to go to the next shop.
Sarusok panicked and quickly pulled Ye Xin back. If he was late, he would be killed by the guild leader.
"Urgent! It's very urgent!"
"Could it be that the old man is dying and wants to pass the position of president to me? That's really urgent. I'll give you the account book. Help me collect the rest of the rent. I'll treat you to a meal later.”Ye Xin stuffed the account book into Sarusok's hands and ran in the direction of the guild.
Sarusok looked at the account book in his hand and suddenly wanted to cry.
After a while, Ye Xin returned to the guild. Seeing that the old man was safe and sound, he knew that the position of the president was ruined.
"Guild Leader, why are you calling me? I'm still collecting rent.”
When Makarov heard Ye Xin's words, he scolded angrily,""Collecting rent, collecting rent? Do you like collecting rent that much? Don't you have the dignity of a sorcerer?!”
Ye Xin smiled and said," President, you know me well. The thing I like the most is collecting rent. It doesn't matter if I have self-esteem or not. It's fine as long as others respect you."”
The people in the guild were all slightly stunned. They all carefully tasted Ye Xin's words. The more they tasted, the more they felt that there was a very profound truth.
"Sometimes, some very reasonable words would inexplicably appear from Ye Xin's mouth.”
"Guild Leader, why did you call me back?"
Makarov sighed. Forget it. Although Ye Xin's hobby was very strange, it was still a relatively worry-free one. After so many years of not being educated, it was even more impossible for him to change in the future.
"Habi stole the quest from the second floor and went to do an S-rank quest with Naz and Lucy.”
Ye Xin raised his eyebrows and said without surprise,"I see. It's already not easy for him to endure until now before doing an S-rank mission. I thought he would secretly do an S-rank mission earlier.”
"Naz hasn't passed the S-rank High Mage assessment yet, so he doesn't have the qualifications to do S-rank missions. S-rank missions are still too dangerous for them.”
"How troublesome! Which mission did he take?"
"The cursed island, Karna Island's mission."”
"Demon Island!"
Many people in the guild exclaimed. Karna Island wasn't too far away from Magnoria Town. It was said that there were demons living on the island, so it was considered a very famous island in the Kingdom of Fiore.
"Oh! It's that! The mission hasn't been completed yet!" Ye Xin remembered that he had seen this mission on the second floor before. Because the reward was not high and it was an island that needed to go out to sea, Ye Xin directly passed the mission.
"Out to sea!" To be honest, Ye Xin was not afraid of the sea now. He had learned a lot of magic from Makarov.
Although it didn't help to increase the power of the sparkling fruit, it allowed him to use the sparkling fruit in a variety of ways. However, not being afraid of seawater didn't mean that he liked seawater. He believed that any demon fruit aptitude user who had choked on water wouldn't like seawater.
