A mont of silence.
Not only the others, but Ji Jue was also montarily stunned.
He hadn't expected the supervisor to be so open and candid... He was sowhat bewildered and puzzled for a mont.
How could such a thing be discussed openly?
This thing may look like a living specin, but if it were truly put to the test, it would be solid proof that the White Country Restoration Front holds weapons and technology of mass destruction!
Moreover, inside it contains the secrets and technology for Mutated transformation into a wolf. When it cos to its value, even if Ji Jue demanded a sky-high price, it would still sell.
How could there be no bargaining at all and simply lay all cards on the table?
Isn't this just handing Ji Jue the power to raise the price?
Besides, with so many aspects involved, doesn't everyone usually deal with such matters behind closed doors in private?
You're really not particular at all, are you!
No, maybe... it's on purpose...
While the old man was grinning broadly, Ji Jue's mind raced, and suddenly he understood: Old Deng, he did it on purpose!
So things have their own rits whether done secretly or openly.
In secret, discussions are quieter and handling is more discreet. But spoken out in front of everyone, it simplifies everything.
Whether it works out or not, it's a one-ti deal, saving the hassle of endless bargaining, and it's much more reassuring.
Even if the Empire weighs in later and brings it to the temporary arbitration committee, Old Deng has sothing to say — it's not yours or mine, I bought it from a craftsman, everyone saw it.
Clearly priced, fair trade!
Ji Jue couldn't help but sigh.
Who says Ruins is stubborn?
Hanging around Tian Yuan long enough, even stones will be enlightened...
Old Deng dislikes trouble, so he imdiately tossed the trouble Ji Jue's way. You take the advantage and the benefits, so you handle this ss; the performance is just once, and any after-sales issues are yours to cover.
As for the pricing...
Whatever, not my concern!
The hint has already been thrown in Ji Jue's face.
What do you know about the Federation? Anyway, the Security Bureau is footing the bill, so it's just a matter of issuing a few more invoices.
In just a few breaths, Ji Jue smiled again: "There's one more thing, I hope Mr. Lin knows — this matter relies on the guidance and assistance of Hunter Finger, and the hunt was not achieved solely by .
If there are any further developnts, I hope Hunter Finger can be involved."
"No problem."
Lin Shouyi nonchalantly scratched his bearded chin and glanced at An Ning: "For sothing like this, you can't get around White Deer, just point to a Hunter."
Ji Jue added, "And, considering this thing might involve forbidden technology and Evil Foolishness, as a craftsman, to preemptively block any risks, I hope the Association can synchronize updates in a tily manner."
"Absolutely, you go ask."
Lin Shouyi gave Ji Jue a aningful look: "Anything else?"
"Also, Brother Shan, Ji Liu, and Ji Xue have fought through blood and fire, with great effort and rit, but your wise mind hardly needs to say this. Being this generous, I have nothing more to add."
Ji Jue picked up the rcury Sculpture and handed it over: "I've been under the protection of Guardian Lv since I was young; after becoming a craftsman, I've benefited from the Security Bureau's grace and care, and in Central Earth, Brother Shan sheltered from storms.
The Security Bureau doesn't treat as an outsider, so we're all family, just a token three to five coins will do."
"..."
In the brief silence, Lin Shouyi gradually retracted his smile, glanced at Ji Jue, suddenly chuckled, and unceremoniously took the sculpture from his hands.
"Lv Yingyue taught you well."
"Just a bit of cleverness, not worth ntioning, but I've gotten into plenty of trouble, always needing others to clean up the ss. Now there's a chance to repay a bit, why not?"
"Good, very good."
Lin Shouyi laughed heartily, finally patted his shoulder, turned back and called, "Xiao Xu!"
"Here." Xu Ranshuang raised a hand.
"Take Xiao Ji ho for a visit, since we're family, no need for formalities."
Lin Shouyi walked into the crack in the ground without looking back, sighing lightly as if with emotion: "Finally seeing returns, heh, who would've thought, there'd be a day I'd take advantage of that little fox..."
He said nothing, said everything.
No matter what kind of person Ji Jue is.
From now on, we're family!
In the Security Bureau's cafeteria, Ji Jue once again picked up a pork chop al, this ti getting an extra two pieces of at and four side dishes.
He ca empty-handed, and left with loads.
And brought back a person.
"Ah Fei, Ah Fei —"
Ji Jue pushed the door open, "Finished your howork? I'll be checking the number theory materials later, if you can't answer, you'll be brushing the outer walls again."
"Huh?"
Yan Fei, who was drenched in sweat and just returned from the production line, blacked out for a mont, then quickly wiped his sweat, and, upon seeing the lady following Ji Jue, hastily prepared tea and water without daring to ask a question, ready to leave when he heard Ji Jue's instructions: "Get Ah Chang out to et the guest.
This is Director Xu from the Security Bureau. From now on, her ssages don't need an appointnt, just send them to directly."
Yan Fei paused briefly, then rushed upstairs in a hurry, coming back with a wheelchair.
With a bewildered younger brother.
"Oh, is it the Heart Core?"
Xu Ranshuang held her tea, glanced over, and smiled slightly: "You do have quite the talented group here."
"Just a makeshift team, a shell company, a shady workshop, nothing notable." Ji Jue waved his hand: "It's all thanks to everyone's support."
