Although Jiang Qianxue had already left the teahouse, she was looking back every few steps. It looked like she was quite fond of the teahouse.

"Stop looking back! Mind your steps! I have to warn you: if you fall, I won’t carry you down the hill!" Zhang Zian stopped walking and spoke to Snowy. The rain had stopped, but the sun was not out. The path was slippery.

Cursing started in the broadcast room immediately.

"You shut up! Look at how tired you were when you were halfway up the hill. You want to carry Snowy down? Bull sh*t!"

"Mr. Sexual Manager was cold blooded. So bad!"

Zhang Zian read the people’s comments and said, "Snowy, why don’t you fall right here? I will carry you down."

No more comments from the crowd.

Snowy was worried. "There is barely anyone on the hilltop. Sister Ye and Anxin are on their own. What if someone tried to take advantage of them? I think they should get a big dog to protect themselves."

Before they entered the teahouse, there were some tourists outside the building. When they left, there was no one remaining. Other hikers might have returned home seeing the bad weather. They didn’t see anyone as they hiked down the mountain.

The owners of the other stores were some middle-age men. Sister Ye and Anxin were like two beautiful roses in the woods.

"Take advantage of" is a phrase that means one thing to men and another to women.

Zhang Zian asked, "Do you think Sister Ye and Anxin are stupid?"

"I don’t think so," she replied.

"Are they crazy?"

"Of course not!"

"Well, that’s it. Even you would think it could be dangerous to run a teahouse up there, so how do they not think about it?" he said.

The crowd felt that Zhang Zian was fooling around with Snowy on purpose. That was not cool.

Snowy’s mind was full of questions.

He continued, "A normal person would choose to open a teahouse in a busy area like downtown. They were not stupid nor crazy. Why did they pick the mountaintop?" He turned around to point at the top. "Think about it. If I wanted to open a store up there, I wouldn’t even know where to begin the application process…Since they could get that land and open up a teahouse, they are not normal people. I am telling you, they are wealthy, and maybe even powerful. I am sure they have a safe way to stay out of trouble."

Snowy looked confused.

Zhang Zian knew that she didn’t have much experience when it came to the real world. For him, this was an excellent chance to take a break, so he continued speaking.

"Some people might save up some money and open a business…a coffee shop, flower store, bubble tea house, maybe even a pet store even when they couldn’t tell you the pet’s breed…then they lose money and go back to real life. I could tell that Sister Ye and Anxin aren’t those kinds of people."

He once again pointed at the hilltop. "Couldn’t you tell? They are not just normal, wealthy people. They are tycoons. They have the teahouse for fun and don’t care whether or not it is profitable. When they are sick of this RPG game, they will be able to get rid of it anytime. We are different from them. We are only normal people living a regular life. It is not our business to worry about them and honestly, we couldn’t really do much for them…"

"Let’s go," he finally said, and went down the hill happily.

Snowy followed but she was still confused.

…

In the corporate building of Jiang’s Group, Jiang Tianda looked at his new monitor, remained silent for a while, and said, "Snowy, my darling, when will you get tired of your RPG game?"

…

At the bottom of the mountain, Zhang Zian and Snowy split. Zhang Zian took a taxi back to his pet store.

It was almost noon. The store was still closed. It would’ve been open by this time normally.

When he got out of the taxi, he saw Wang Qian and Li Kun standing outside the store. They were playing with their cell phones and talking about something.

As soon as the taxi stopped, they both ran over and yelled nervously, "Master, Master! Not good! Not good!"

Zhang Zian was used to how they talked, so he didn’t really take them seriously.

He walked toward the store, took out the keys and asked, "What’s up?"

Wang Qian said, "Stars Pet Chain Supermarket on the east side has an advertisement. They are going to have a fall sale. Everything 50% off. They are fighting back!"

Li Kun agreed, "Yeah, Master. They are mean! That’s a price war! We can’t let them win!"

The two crazy kids were trying to make Zhang Zian mad and hoping to see how he would fight back.

"Stars Pet is offering 50% off everything?" Zhang Zian rolled up the curtain, then unlocked the glass door. "How did you find out?"

Wang Qian and Li Kun showed him their cell phones. There was a post in the BBS’ pet section. The title was: "Stars Pet Chain Supermarket’s fall promotion: 50% off everything. Who wants to go?"

There was also a picture in the post. It was a picture of the advertisement sign saying that Stars Pet would start their fall promotion this weekend and everything was up to 50% off. The location was the Stars Pet Chain Supermarket on the east side.

Someone responded:

"Is that an advertisement? Ads are prohibited here. Best of luck to you."

"I thought it was the directly operated store on the west side. Well, the one on the east side is too far away."

"Is it a real or fake promotion? The trick is to increase the price first and then give a big discount."

"Oh no! This is the store that hired that internet water army for promotion. Honestly, whoever goes will be tricked. I assure you."

"Well, I am planning on going. I won’t lose a dime by going, right?"

"I am going too. I know pets, so they can’t trick me."

"Ha-ha, stores will always trick those who think they are experts. Remember, buyers can never be more cunning than sellers! I quite like that crazy owner in the Amazing Fate Pet Store. He is always honest about his tricks. Ha-ha…"

…

He casually read through the posts and asked, "is this the Wang Haige BBS? How do you get an invitation code?"

Wang Qian and Li Kun were surprised. Master’s focus point is always different than ours!

"Master, we can get you an invitation code," Wang Qian replied.

"Okay, get me one."

Zhang Zian downloaded the BBS app and registered a new ID using the invitation code from them.

"F*ck! Who registered the ID name ‘The Hottie’? Shameless!"

Wang Qian and Li Kun were confused. They knew their master had to mean something deep by saying that.

Zhang Zian could only register the ID "The Hottie Manager". As soon as he was done with registration, he responded to the post mentioned to him with: "You are in fact crazy! I am the hottest of the hot!"

"Holy Sh*t! Shameless ID and style… the real crazy manager is here!" the crowd replied.
