Chapter 670 670: Big Business
?
Just as Eric's vehicle was about to enter the big gate of the Mehmediye city, a loud voice just like the roaring of a tiger sounded through the whole area.
As this place could be said to be one of the biggest market centers in the current world, the security and screening they had were beyond normal as well, for those that entered the place, of course.
After all, security was one of the most important aspects of having a flourishing business, at the same time the city itself couldn't control those that left the place.
It was precisely this kind of attitude that made this place even more famous and preferred by all kinds of Hunters, and Rulers.
Eric was in his vehicle with just the driver, and one more bodyguard, while the rest of the team was in the cars behind him.
The bodyguard on the shotgun seat immediately opened the window and had a look at the guard at the door, before he said in broken English,
"We want to enter inside, my Master has a great deal for your Ruler!"
Whoever heard him speak like that would think that he was shamelessly boasting, as what would be a great deal for a Ruler like theirs.
Still, at the same time that he spoke those words Eric's bodyguard released a bit of his aura as well, fully showing off his Realm 4 evolution.
The moment they felt those energy waves, anyone could tell that the bodyguard was no simple person, and even less the person who was supposed to be his Master, who should be at least Realm 5.
One had to know that while Realm 7 was the new peak for this world, Realm 5 was nothing to scoff at either, as a Realm 5 powerhouse would still be the Ruler of a Town.
After all, even the captain of the Guards at the gate was only a Realm 4 expert that was dying to become Realm 5.
So the bodyguards carried a bit of weight, but that didn't mean that the Captain at the gate trusted him, or even less that it would help him.
"I don't care what deal you have for my Ruler, or what golden eggs you do, according to the rules you are all to get down from your vehicles and go through the search."
Of course, the rules were this strict, but this didn't mean that the guards at the gate would go exactly by the rules.
There was always an easier solution to get inside, but it wasn't a free one. After all, even these guards needed to have a bit of food on their tables, and a woman on their lives.
Eric's bodyguard was a bit unhappy with how he had been treated, but before he could say or do anything, the driver showed his head to the window and throwing something at the Captain, said,
"Of course, rules are rules, and they need to be attested to!"
The Captain of the guards nonchalantly grabbed what was thrown at him, only to lose his senses for a moment. Drool would be coming out of his mouth had he not controlled himself properly.
"You heard the Captain, get your asses off!"
The guards below took the whole situation differently though, as they thought that the 'tribute' wasn't enough, as one of them took the lead screaming at the driver and towards the vehicle.
"You brute shut the hell up! Scram to the side and let the honored guests enter the city! How dare you raise your voice!"
The guards were a bit startled and flabbergasted but they didn't dare to disobey as they immediately scrammed to the side and opened the gate for Eric's motorcade.
Not only that, but the Captain took the effort to get down himself and accompany Eric's motorcade through the check posts.
The reason why he did that!?
Really simple, he had just been gifted with 10 low-quality Qi replenishing pills, that would actually be equal to 10 A-grade women.
While this comparison was a bit vulgar it showed clearly the worth of those pills to the current order, especially knowing how low the women population was.
Once he safely and personally accompanied Eric's motorcade inside the city and gave the directions to the best hotel he got back to his post and immediately notified his leader.
At this moment, he truly believed the cold bodyguard's words, Eric had come to this place for a big deal, he didn't know exactly what, but for sure it was something big.
…
On the other hand, Eric and his motorcade were making their way toward the Eastern part of the City-State where the best residential area was located.
No matter the time, or place, there would always be separations and distinctions in human society, and this was just a simple fact born from nature.
Whether it was set up by the one in charge, or whether it was a distinction created from resources, the separation existed.
Bosporus Elite Residences!
Prior to the S-day, this place was a famous touristic spot that was only reserved by big movie companies in order to create some masterpieces due to their positions and locations.
After the S-day, and especially in the current times, they were still residences for the rich and wealthy, clean from any 'low-life' that didn't have the money or the strength to approach this area.
Eric and his motorcade drove right into the heart of this place, as the paper they got from the Captain at the gate made their entrance smooth sailing.
He was able to rent the best villa in this place from the moment he entered, so he didn't waste any moment.
It was certainly a great spot, a great location to have a vacation villa as he couldn't help but get a bit greedy.
His Nightless Stone City wasn't bad, but there definitely wasn't a sun to warm the weather or a sea where one could drown their tiredness.
Still, one had to say that this place was quite beautiful, not only due to its view and nature but also due to its residents.
While women outside would be as rare as a baldies hair, in this place they were overflowing in numbers.
Women of all kinds and ages would be seen staying in the sun covered only in thin clothes by the pools.
This place seemed to be just like a paradise of beauties, as all kinds of men would be watching them with perverted and lecherous looks.
In fact, witnessing this view Eric couldn't help but regret a little bit that he hadn't taken one of his ladies with him. At least with one of them close by this whole situation wouldn't be boring.
Of course, Eric's arrival startled and grabbed the attention of quite a few people, who were really curious to know just who was this spendthrift who had rented the main villa.
Just because he had grabbed their attention it didn't mean that they were going to walk over and talk to him though, as that would make them look weak.
Eric didn't mind their childish thoughts, and ideas as he immediately got off and entered his villa while giving instructions to his guards,
"Relax a bit and start taking intervals of break and enjoy this place! We don't know exactly how long we are going to stay here, so make the most of your stay!"
With that said, he took a bottle of Whiskey from the big bar inside the Villa and then walked outside on the side of the pool.
Finding a nice and serene place, he immediately lay down and closed his eyes. That's where the weird part started though, as he would start laughing all of a sudden, and get serious the next.
One would think that he was possessed at the moment!
…
At the same time though, something entirely different was happening in the biggest attraction site prior to the S-day, the great Sultan's Palace.
The Ruler of the City-State, the Rank 7 Sultan Mehmet was deep in thought as he was trying to understand just what kind of great business Eric would give him.
Even though he took the guard's Captain's words with a pinch of salt, he couldn't help but get excited knowing that a great business deal was coming his way.
No matter how lucrative the business deal was though, there was no chance of him going to visit Eric himself to discuss it.
His pride and arrogance as the Sultan didn't allow him to do that. Not to mention that this was his turf and people would stay in line to greet him.
With these thoughts in mind, he decided to put his future business partner to a bit of a test, as he said to his assistant,
"Send Aisha to him and do a full background check! I want to know everything there is to know for that guy!"
"My lord, but Aisha is…."
"Hmph, that bitch dared to refuse me, let me see what he can do about her..."
