Albert said with a smile, "Kobayashi Jiro, you're pretty quick to catch up on things lately."
Jiro hurriedly trotted over to Albert, bowed at him respectfully, and exclaimed, "Don Albert! I thank you for your recognition! I'll definitely continue to work hard!"
Albert nodded in satisfaction and said, "Well done, Jiro. Seeing as you've been doing well lately, I'll talk to the cooks later and ask them to give you an extra chicken wing every day from now on!" 3
Jiro quickly begged with a coy smile, "Don Albert, c-can you please ask the cook to give me a drumstick instead? I've been working a lot every day, but my food rations are minimal. I've been a bit malnourished lately..."
Albert sneered at Jiro’s withered appearance. "Jiro, you're good at bargaining."
Jiro hurriedly explained, "Oh no, Don Albert. I don’t mean to bargain with you, please don't misunderstand. I just feel that I don't have enough to eat daily..."
Albert laughed and nodded. "Alright, I get it. I'll tell you what, for the sake of your recent efforts and hard
work, in addition to an extra chicken wing every day, I'll order the cook to add an extra drumstick for you every Monday and Thursday!" 2
Upon hearing this, Jiro hurriedly bowed and grinned excitedly. "Thank you, Don Albert! Thank you! Please also thank Master Wade on my behalf and tell him that I'll work hard at your kennel!”
Albert laughed and said, "Okay. Since you are so sensible and smart, I'll definitely put in a good word for you when I have the chance to meet Master Wade." 3
Jiro was so thrilled that he bowed and said, "Thank you, Don Albert!"
"Yup, that's him!" Albert continued to mock, "Look, even a guy like Kobayashi Jiro, whose family assets are three times yours, is just a servant who feeds the dogs and shovels sh*t every day in my kennel, yet, and a piece of sh*t like you wants to work here? Don't make me laugh!"
Edmund was dumbstruck and thought in despair, 'D* mn it! I really did not expect to bump into Kobayashi Pharma's second son in Albert’s dog kennel...' 4
'The Kobayashi family is completely different from the Whittaker family. The Kobayashi family has only two offsprings, Ichiro and Jiro, so if they divide the 30 billion dollars worth of assets equally, they will each receive 15 billion inheritance...'
'On the contrary, our Whittaker family has so f*cking many descendants! There are a total of twenty people among my siblings and cousins. If we divide the 10 billion assets, each of the descendants will only get peanuts...' 2 'Compared to Kobayashi Jiro, I'm too far behind...'
'Even he is here to take care of the dogs! Would I really not have any chance at all here?!'
