After disconnecting the call, Hao Ren went back in the embrace of his wife's embrace. However, he did not sleep. Over the period of ti, his body fitness has reached a level he could have never imagined it to be. He could stay awake for two days without any exertion. He knew this because he had been checking his attribute panel regularly.
Hao Ren thought to himself, 'System, the formula for the spirit rejuvenation potion is very potent and the one I handed to the military is a diluted potion. I wonder how similar is the effect.'
*Ding: Host, it was wise of you to dilute the potion. This formula is very strong and if it fell in the wrong hands, they can cause great harm. However, the dilution does not effect the potency much. For an above average human the recovery rate is still ninety percent, but soone who stands on the higher pedestal, they might need more than just one bottle.*
Hao Ren nodded internally and after so thought he said, 'I should just sell the formula directly to the military at a lower price, and ask them for an exemption because I toyed with that prick.'
He spent the entire night ti in the bed thinking about the various ways he could use to maximize his benefit. Hao Ren was not a pri patriot, but he wasn't completely averted either. This place was his ho after all. He sighed, thinking how good it would be if he could exchange his ideas with soone.
Suddenly, he sensed a burst of warmth on his neck and found that Han Lingshi had woken up and was looking at him with a smile on her face. She asked in a soft husky voice, "What are you thinking about?"
Hao Ren did not have any intention to hide his thoughts from her and the two of them began to discuss the possibilities. Han Lingshi was a bigger player in the world of business then he was, her expertise were sothing that could be cashed upon.
In the end, Han Lingshi said, "The reason you are not putting up robots for everything is because you do not want them to scare the humans if they appear to be too different. If you can make a spirit rejuvenation potion then why not use the ans of integration and create sothing that enables the humans to be better than what they are. Sothing like those chs in the movies.
As for the Spirit Rejuvenation Potion, it is good if you sell the diluted formula. It is a dicine made from herbs, and will only benefit them in the long run. Military will be keeping this deal a secret, and they will be hiding your identity as well. Cash in, and use the money for better things."
Hao Ren thought and said, "Sotis the simplest thod is the best thod."
Han Lingshi nodded as she pecked his cheek and got out of bed. She said, "You have a eting at ten, it is already seven, get going."
That said, she went to the washroom, while Hao Ren went to the gym room. His parents were early risers and were shocked to see this. They were attracted by the noises from the gym room when Hao Ren was practicing his martial arts. They did not expect their son to have such a skill.
Han Lingshi showed up after a hair wash and Hao Ren went to the washroom to take a bath. Soon the two were ready, and Mrs. Hao served them with a healthy breakfast. Han Lingshi said, "Ma, I will send a driver for you, we will go shopping in the evening and have a dinner outside."
Hao Ren said, "Lingshi, Sunshine Teahouse."
Han Lingshi was surprised but then she nodded. Mrs. Hao asked, "Why are you asking her to make the arrangents?"
Han Lingshi replied, "He has an important eting today. So, it would be difficult for him to spare ti and attention."
Old Man Hao said, "Madam, don't ddle in their affairs, they are adults and can handle themselves."
Hao Ren finished eating, then he cleaned the table with Han Lingshi and then he put on a formal suit as he said, "Ma, I am off. Old Boy, don't just sleep all day, go out for a walk the weather is nice today."
Old Man Hao glared at him but Hao Ren left the house, followed by Han Lingshi who greeted the two elders with a smile on her face. The couple left the building together, Hao Ren found Heath standing in the parking.
The guard smiled and said, "Good morning, Young Madam, Young Master."
Hao Ren smiled back and said, "Let's have a et up with your brothers at night. Also, brother Heath, my parents are here, Lingshi will tell you when to drive them out. So, please stand-by for the day."
Heath nodded and said, "No problem, Young master."
...
Hao Ren drove Han Lingshi to the Empress International, and they found the entrance to be blocked by reporters. Hao Ren stopped the car, he stepped out of the vehicle and his cold aura imdiately stopped the people rushing toward them in their tracks. He walked around and opened the passenger seat for Han Lingshi.
He was holding her left hand in his right and the white rings stood in contrast to there skin. The reporters did not miss the chance and clicked pictures one after the other. Han Lingshi fixed his tie and said, "You go, I will handle these people. You will be late otherwise."
Hao Ren sighed and said, "Thank you."
Han Lingshi smiled and then the two exchanged a peck of love and Hao Ren drove away. Han Lingshi watched his vehicle vanish around the turn before she turned her head to look at the reporters and her smile had vanished completely. The Ice Demon Empress was back at work.
...
Hao Ren arrived at the military headquarters fifteen minutes before the appointnt, and after the security checks, he was let in. He found Xia Yun waiting for him, and this ti, the latter was very cordial with Hao Ren.
The young man understood that it was the power he held that made these people soften their stance. The military was very simple, they did not move tip toed. They were highly efficient and charged forward to attain the goal.
Hao Ren was led inside a room, and found Commander Gan standing behind a person. The young man noticed the epaulets and was stunned. There was a single silver seal that represented the Han Nation shining there.
Commander Gan bowed and whispered sothing to the person on the chair, who raised his head and looked at Hao Ren with great curiosity. Hao Ren t the gaze equally, he could sense the dignified aura radiated from this man that made him want to salute. He smiled faintly and said, "Good morning, Marshal Tang."
The old man was surprised, but then he smiled and asked, "I did not expect a successful young man like yourself would be aware of an old man like ."
Hao Ren shook his head and said, "If a person grown in the north does not know the legends of the Iron Tiger, he is not a northerner."
The old man could not help but chuckle as he said, "Well, that ti is long behind . I am no longer the tiger that could watch the woods."
Hao Ren smiled and said, "You are now watching the woods through the eyes of the others, Sir. Soldiers do not get old, they are never forgotten, they live through the people who succeed them."
Marshal Tang thought for a bit and said, "Well said."
Then he said, "Co and sit with , Chairman Hao."
This address was not made out of formality but also respect. Hao Ren nodded and sat down across him. The old man said, "Can you guess why you have been called over today?"
Hao Ren nodded and replied, "The forces want to buy out my Spirit Rejuvenation Formula."
Marshal Tang smiled and said, "It saves ti when you talk to smart people. Since you have figured it out, what do you say to the price of five hundred million yuan?"
Hao Ren raised his brow and smiled as he asked, "Sir, do you think it is too much? If I was to sell this formula to so private dicine developer, I would have made a fortune five tis of what you are offering."
Marshal Tang nodded and said, "I understand what you an, Chairman Hao, we understand that your formula is worth a lot more than what we have to offer, but recently the military is in a tight position. I hope you understand."
Hao Ren nodded and said, "I do, actually, I don't want you to pay with this much money. I have five conditions which are easy to fulfil. I would like you to listen to them and see if we can reach a cooperation."
He had registered the formula in the dical Codex and it was a proven recipe, none of the people could use it for comrcial use without his permission. After the deal with the military, the record in the dical codex will be sealed by the military, and the information will vanish.
Mashal Tang was surprised to hear it, but then he said, "Fine, go ahead, tell what is it that you want?"
Hao Ren smiled and said, "First condition, you all must have looked into , and know that my partner, Miss Han Lingshi is soone many n have tried to impress. One such person is called Captain Eden Dale, a special force operative in the Tidal Squad."
The eyes of the two narrowed and killing intent filled the room. The details of the special squad mbers were secret, how can Hao Ren find out. The young man replied with a faint smile, "Please do not look at like that. Captain Eden Dale tried to hack into my company server, but I caught him red handed.
I found out the reason of this snooping around from my wife and so I made a call to him on the encrypted channel.
I wish to be exempted from punishnt from this. So, twenty percent of my rit from selling this formula can be used for that. I wonder if you agree."
The two old n were still gazing at him with malice, and Marshal Tang asked, "Do you understand what you just told us?"
Hao Ren smiled and nodded before he said, "I do, but the constitution allows the right to self defense. It also restricts a military personnel to look into my life without any concrete reason. So, if this goes into court of law, it is a civil cri. Both sides will suffer, so the choice is yours."
