35: Chapter 35: Words from the Heart 35: Chapter 35: Words from the Heart “So, boss, I’ll give you Chen Xin’s contact information, and you can talk with him once you log off.
I’ve roughly estimated that each tank costs about 30,000 yuan.
Those guns go for about 1,000 a piece, not to ntion all the ammunition.
The total cos up to about 280,000 yuan, of course, that’s just my estimate, after all, these pieces of equipnt don’t have set prices yet, so there’s a lot of room for negotiation.”
The excitent on Sun Duoxiang’s face was impossible to hide.
Lan Xi and Zhang Hao couldn’t help but gasp when they heard the equipnt was worth 280,000 yuan, their bodies trembling slightly, as they had never seen so much money in their lives.
“No need, you handle the negotiations.”
Su Mo curtly refused.
“That might not be appropriate, after all, I am from the Wuji Guild.
If I handle the negotiations, it’s like dealing between my left hand and my right hand, and if the negotiated price is not suitable, you might not be satisfied…”
Though Sun Duoxiang was very tempted, he still restrained himself.
“No need, you go ahead, I trust you.”
When Su Mo said this, Sun Duoxiang felt a warm sensation inside, touched by such profound trust.
“Since you’ve said so, boss, you guys wait for .
I’m going to log off now and negotiate.
Wait for my good news.”
So, Sun Duoxiang hurriedly logged off on the spot.
Su Mo wasn’t idle either; he walked straight to the crate, took out rifles one by one, and tossed them to Lan Xi and the others, also loading up magazines on his person.
Then he lifted the rifle and pointed it at the wall, testing the motions a few tis, and felt it was okay.
About two hours later, Sun Duoxiang ca back online.
He excitedly announced, “It’s settled, the Wuji Guild is willing to buy this batch of weapons and equipnt for 300,000 yuan.”
“Hmm.”
Su Mo responded indifferently; he had no objections.
“Boss, I was thinking this, you worked the hardest this ti, so you deserve the lion’s share.
How about you take 150,000, and the remaining 150,000, the six of us can split equally?
What do you think?”
Sun Duoxiang suggested brazenly, hoping for Su Mo’s agreent on this allocation sche.
It would an that each of them could have an inco of over 20,000 yuan—a considerable sum!
Lan Xi and Zhang Hao were also sowhat nervous as they looked towards Su Mo; this money was just as important to them.
Su Mo simply waved his hand, disinterestedly replying, “I don’t need my share, you guys divide it up.”
This statent was as shocking as a thunderclap, leaving Sun Duoxiang and the others completely dumbfounded.
“You don’t want your share, big brother?”
“Not interested, it’s all yours.”
Su Mo genuinely lacked major interest.
Seeing Su Mo’s generosity, Sun Duoxiang was extraordinarily moved.
Then sothing occurred to him, and he hesitated for a mont.
He walked forward and pulled Su Mo aside, lowering his voice as he spoke to him.
“Big brother, can we step aside for a talk?
I have sothing I want to discuss with you.”
“Sure!”
Su Mo was sowhat surprised; he was curious about what Sun Duoxiang wanted to say.
“Big brother, forgive my presumptuous words.
You seem like a very wealthy person who doesn’t lack money at all.
Moreover, judging from our ti together, if I’m not mistaken, you rarely socialize or basically have no social life at all.
You entered this ga probably just to pass the ti and find so fun, right?”
Sun Duoxiang led Su Mo to a corner and whispered.
After listening, Su Mo was just silently contemplative.
Seeing Su Mo not responding, Sun Duoxiang continued, “Actually, I want to tell you that for soone wealthy and powerful like you, it’s generally hard to find true friends and a kindred spirit.
The reason is simple; the people in your circle are mostly concerned with benefits, everything revolves around interests.
And for people like us at the bottom, we’re not in the sa circle.
To put it bluntly, those from the lower circles who interact with you, most of them are also trying to curry favor with you, to please you, all for their own benefits.”
“I’m not just talking nonsense; let give you so heartfelt advice.
Let’s not talk about others; let’s address the most realistic cases.
Take Lan Xi, for example.
Despite being so harshly ostracized by the guild, she still wants to stay with it.
She clings to your ‘coattails’, disregarding her teammates’ deaths, all to survive in the ga.
Even though no one knows the bitterness and helplessness behind her actions, in the end, it’s all for the sake of benefits—or rather, indirectly for the sake of money, including myself.
The reason I keep pestering you is also for my own benefit; we just can’t help it because we are desperately in need of money.
Money might not be everything in this world, but without it, life becos incredibly difficult.
To put it harshly, if I were ever to face a do-or-die situation, I would have no choice but to sell you out because I need to survive too.”
Sun Duoxiang said earnestly.
Su Mo beca even more silent, but he didn’t say anything, just quietly listening.
Suddenly, Sun Duoxiang showed a slight smile and said, “However, I have a way that can help you.
It might not only help you find close friends but also make your life more interesting, no longer so boring.”
“What way?”
Su Mo looked at Sun Duoxiang with great curiosity.
“It’s quite simple.
High places are bitterly cold, and one can get tired of the views from the mountain top.
It wouldn’t hurt to co down and take a look; the scenery at the base of the mountain has its own unique charm.
All you need to do is lower your status, never flaunt your wealth, and don’t reveal your strength.
Just disguise yourself as an ordinary person.
By blending into the world as an ordinary person, you might experience a different kind of life.
“After all, with your wealth, people flock to you for their interests.
When you are too powerful, people will only fear and revere you, and try to ingratiate themselves with you.
Of course, you shouldn’t be too weak either; otherwise, those around you would bully you.”
“Only when you are like one of us will everyone treat you normally and accept you, and you’ll find it easier to make close friends.
And you don’t have to worry about what happens when your identity is eventually revealed.
The world is very realistic; it’s a cri to pretend to be rich, unforgivable.
But pretending to be poor is different; no one will really be angry about that.”
Sun Duoxiang offered Su Mo a heartfelt suggestion.
He could tell at a glance that Su Mo was soone who had lost life’s goals and fun.
After thinking it over carefully, Su Mo felt there might be so truth to it, so he said to Sun Duoxiang.
“Why are you telling all this?”
“It’s because you’ve been so good to .
I have to at least offer you so honest advice.”
“You have so conscience after all, telling the truth.
That makes you a friend, barely.”
Su Mo responded indifferently.
Hearing Su Mo’s words, Sun Duoxiang also froze, feeling a warmth in his heart.
Su Mo looked at the stunned Sun Duoxiang, patted him on the shoulder, and walked away.
Zhang Hao and a few others were also very curious about what Su Mo and Sun Duoxiang had talked about, but they were tactful enough not to ask.
What they were more concerned about was whether Su Mo was serious about not wanting any profits, but they all felt too embarrassed to ask directly.
