Chapter 135 – Chapter 135 Taleia
What Thaleia said far exceeded Jason’s expectations.
“You must be busy hanging out with various women right now. In the future, you want to have children and raise them well like other men, don’t you?”
“Maybe. Is that right?”
It is an instinct that all living things have.
“I’ll give you a better option than seeing an obscure woman and child.”
For some reason, Jason felt uneasy.
“I will make your child a prince.”
“My child? Are you saying you want to switch children?”
Jason suddenly remembered a story he had seen in Korea.
It was so shocking that even he, who hadn’t studied well, remembered it.
In ancient China, there was a authority called Yeobulwi, and it was said that he made his concubine pregnant and presented it to the king.
Later, it was a shocking conspiracy theory that the child born by the concubine became Qin Shi Huang, the first to unify China.
What Thaleia had suggested was a story of that level.
“Does it need to be complicated?”
“Sure?”
“I will align the boat with you. It’s not strange at all for her brother to come see her sister.”
And Thaleia’s proposal was more than Chinese history.
He was casually suggesting a close relative.
“Are you trying to make rice cake with your younger brother like a pig and a dog?”
“What’s not going to happen? After all, sex is what everyone does. What else is there to do between siblings? More than that, the child of the Wolf family becomes the child of the Palmo family. Isn’t it fun?”
It wasn’t fun at all.
It was a conspiracy that would destroy all three tribes if discovered.
“Even the youngest brother, who is known as a child prodigy, doesn’t seem to have that kind of distribution, right? But think about it. There is no alliance as strong as being the parent of a child.”

Thaleia showed an aggressive move.
He thought he had already held the crown prince in his right hand and Jason in his left hand.
She had nothing rough.
She made her brothel significantly expand her business.
Following Jason’s franchise business, she intended to spread the capital’s salons across the empire.
In her opinion, the salon was the heart of the brothel business.
Alcohol, drugs, and women.
It was a place where you could taste the pleasures of heaven if you had money and power.
Even in the provinces, denial and nobility existed.
And her actions were not well received by the underworld people who ran prostitutes in the provinces.
Among them, she asked to see Talaia at a place called Choi Union, where brothels had the biggest business after the Wolf family.
The Choi Alliance is a group of thugs who mainly run brothels. Originally, it was an organization that operated in cities where the influence of the Wolf family was weak.
A person named Choi formed a coalition by forming loose alliances with other gangster organizations, and it was the second largest underworld force after the Wolf family.
“Miss Thalia. You can’t do business like that on this floor.”
“What do you mean?”
“Provinces have their own rules.”
“I don’t know what the hell you’re talking about.”
Taleia was acting as if she didn’t care about the thug named Choi.
And Choi was frustrated.
In the capital, where everything is concentrated, a type of business like a salon was suitable.
However, in the provinces, merchants and nobles were scattered in their respective regions.
So, it was more common to deliver high-class prostitutes by carriage, serve them for a few days, and then return them.
However, as salons opened all over the province, the existing business was aggravated.
“So far, seeing the face of the dark ball elder, things are going well. If we expand our business recklessly like this, we cannot just starve to death.”
At those words, Taleia was rather angry.
“If you have money and power, your business can expand as much as you like. You know that my husband-to-be is Crown Prince Idad, right? The legal review is over, so don’t say unnecessary things.”
“When did we only work legally? If we got into trouble while protecting each other’s morals, we’d stick a knife in our stomachs.”
“Then would you like to put a knife in my stomach? Because you don’t have a father?”
“There could be a war. A war that the imperial family doesn’t care about even if it’s stopped.”
“The Huang family would really like it when thugs fight each other. Yes? And whose side will the imperial family take?”
Choi sighed.
“This floor must be humble to last long. The Dark Ball elders didn’t work so recklessly. It’s all for a reason.”
“My father knows me better. Didn’t my father stop me from starting a business like this?”
Taleiah said that if she felt bad, she would send it straight to her face.
She thinks that she is overpowering Choi.
Thalia said.
“My father went into seclusion, and there were movements here and there to pressure the Wolf family brothel. But that’s what she got wrong. Rather, you should know that I was looking after you when your father was around.”
“This woman?! She is arrogant because she only meets the family well!”
Taleia rises from her seat and she screams.
“Shut up!!!”
The momentum was so ferocious that even Choi, who had been a gangster for many years, kept her mouth shut.
“She only met the family well? Do you think such a person can reach a higher level? And how can a brothel run her business this well? Guys like you always talk. If you were born into the Wolf family, you could do that! But if you had been born into the Wolf family, you would have lived on nothing more than her father’s crumbs?”
“What?!”
“I am a senior priest. The one who will become the empress! If he becomes a superman, he is the one who will rule the underworld of the Palmo Empire! You better watch your mouth now. If, in the future, we want to save at least half of the businesses we are currently operating.”
Choi found it completely impossible to convince her Taleia to go ahead with her good.
Choi rose from her seat.
She politely bowed her head towards Talleia.
Taleia put on a look of satisfaction.
The thugs who ran the brothel over there had always ignored him.
He was treated as a lucky kid because he didn’t grow from the bottom of this floor.
For the first time in years, she felt a sense of exhilaration spreading through her body as if she had been properly fed once.
And Choi’s expression, which turned after her, was distorted.
She knew that when necessary, she had to crawl between the crotches of her enemies as well.
And she knew that once she was humiliated, it would have to remember her until the moment she died.

Taleia was being debriefed by her own entourage.
It was not a bad plan for her to set up salons throughout the Palmo Empire.
She preferred being able to eat everything by herself.
“No. What is a franchise? Why is Jason doing such a good business with others? How much does that cost if you just eat it all by yourself?”
To her Taleia’s words, one of her entourage gave her an answer she might want to hear.
“Taleia-sama has all the power, money, and know-how. Isn’t Master Jason powerless? If we expand here and there, it is obvious that the local thugs will stop us, so they must have chosen such an ambiguous method.”
“In the end, he said he would eat as much as he could. What. He’s pretty smart. Not as much as me.”
At her words, her entourage all began to praise her Taleia for her competence.
Then Thalia said.
“Then, take good care of the salons in each area. Even if a seat were given to each of the elders of the Wolf family, it would be only a nominal boss. Real power is not something you guys have to do one by one.”
Taleia was trying to get various benefits from this one move.
One was to increase the income earned.
If everything went according to plan, it was calculated that he would be able to siphon money from all over the empire and earn several times what he was making now.
The other was to give one seat to the elders of the Wolf family.
The president of a brothel salon was a position that any man wanted.
Male prostitutes were also providing service at the salon, so it was a position that women also wanted.
And while he had to keep an eye on the Wolf family in the capital, he also had the advantage of being able to live like a king there if he went down to the provinces.
In Thaleia’s opinion, there weren’t many elders who would reject something like this.
The last one had the effect of increasing the loyalty of their aides.
At the words Thaleia had just said, everyone in her aides had their eyes shining as if they would carry out any order.
I didn’t know if I would have to fight Tigris and Daphne in the future.
Thaleia thought it was important to solidify the internal solidarity before that.
“Then, go to the provinces busily from now on. I can take care of you guys only when those salons do well. And if I ever become the empress and the owner of the Wolf family… Know?”
Aides shouted that they would show results with their mouths in unison.
