"Will the people from the chanical Departnt listen to him?"
"Of course not."
"Uh, then what’s the point of finding him?"
"Don’t forget, Vice City Lord Okens is a trusted aide of the Gakels City Lord. After the Council Chairman went into hibernation, the entire chanical Departnt has been under the command of the Gakels City Lord."
Blakes revealed the underlying stakes.
"I understand, I’ll go find Vice City Lord Okens at once."
Su Ming replied happily.
"Go on."
Blakes responded indifferently.
Su Ming then turned and left.
Celeste watched Su Ming’s departing back, teasingly said to Blakes.
"Today, the sun must be rising in the west. You’re actually helping Su Ming find his way, telling him how to custom a Pure chanical cha, which is so unlike your usual philosophy."
"Those who achieve great things do not bother with trifles."
Blakes replied expressionlessly.
"Makes sense."
Celeste chuckled in agreent.
--------------------------------------
Inside the Federation Governnt Administrative Building·Deputy City Master Office.
Vice City Lord Okens sat before his desk, with several departnt heads standing in front, reporting with docunts in hand.
"Lord Okens, regarding the land numbered 4212 in G7 area, we prefer a public auction. The funds could help supplent the financial support..."
Upon hearing the report, Okens suddenly raised his hand in a fury and slamd it on the table.
Bang!
The loud noise instantly interrupted the report.
The departnt heads shuddered at once, looking at Okens in terror.
Okens angrily reprimanded.
"I told you to find a way to collect taxes to fill the deficit. If you can’t collect taxes, you think of selling land? Is selling the only thing you know how to do? How many tis have I said it, the valuable land in Starlight City is scarce. Every inch must be maximized..."
Seeing Okens so furious, all the departnt heads turned pale and did not dare to speak up.
Knock knock!
At this mont, a knock on the door sounded.
Soon after, the door was opened, and a neatly dressed female secretary with short flaxen hair walked in,
she reported to Vice City Lord Okens.
"Lord Okens, soone wishes to see you."
"Let him in!"
Okens replied irritably.
The heads on the side felt a burst of joy in their hearts when they heard soone was going to see Okens at such a critical mont; this wasn’t stepping right into the line of fire, conveniently drawing his attention?
"Yes!"
Secretary Nan Ying quickly exited.
Subsequently, Su Ming walked in, feeling startled to see so many people in the office.
Okens, in his irritable state, turned around, and upon seeing it was Su Ming, his expression changed dramatically into a radiant smile and said.
"Su Ming, it’s you, when did you get back?"
The present heads were all dumbfounded. Who was this young man with such privilege?
"Just got back, ca by to pay a visit. Are you busy here? Should I co back later?"
Seeing so many people in the office, Su Ming hesitantly asked.
"Not busy, now get out of here, you all!"
Okens turned around and cursed at the present departnt heads.
Su Ming was also taken aback.
The departnt heads hurriedly left the office after hearing Okens, closing the door again.
"Have a seat!"
Okens imdiately invited Su Ming to sit down.
"Alright!"
Su Ming promptly took a seat.
Okens opened a drawer, took out a box of fine tea, brewed a cup, and handed it to Su Ming.
"Here, have so tea!"
"Thank you, Lord Okens."
Su Ming took a sip.
"Was your further education going smoothly?"
"Quite smooth. I’ve now beco a full-fledged mber and will report back to the legion in a few days."
"That’s good. By the way, is your cha reimbursent proceeding smoothly?"
Okens asked with a smile.
"Thanks to you, it’s been smooth, but I’m facing a troubling matter now."
Su Ming replied sowhat embarrassedly.
"Feel free to say whatever difficulties you have. No need to be polite with ."
Vice City Lord Okens said kindly to Su Ming.
"Then I won’t be polite. I want to customize a High-level Fake V Generation cha from the Xiguang Laboratory chanical Departnt. But I don’t have the connections. Does Lord Okens have any way to help?"
Su Ming asked nervously.
Okens was taken aback by Su Ming’s words and then said sowhat hesitantly.
"It’s a bit troubleso. Xiguang Laboratory chanical Departnt usually doesn’t take custom orders, and they don’t give face to anyone."
"I know that."
"But don’t worry, since you’ve asked, I’ll find a way for you. Just sit for a while, and I’ll give Gakels a call."
"Thanks a lot."
Su Ming expressed his gratitude.
"No problem!"
Okens imdiately left the office.
In the hallway.
Okens raised his wristband and called the Gakels City Lord.
The call was quickly connected.
"Lord Gakels."
"What is it, Okens?"
The tired voice of Gakels sounded from the wristband.
"Lord Gakels, I have a friend who wants to customize a High-level Fake V Generation cha from Xiguang Laboratory. But you know how things are over there, my words don’t carry much weight."
"Okens, you should know how busy the Xiguang Laboratory chanical Departnt is. They don’t have ti to handle custom orders."
"I understand, it’s just..."
Okens hesitated in his reply.
"Who wants the custom order?"
Gakels realized Okens’ difficulty and asked.
"Su Ming, his cha was damaged during the Star Storage event."
Okens replied promptly.
Gakels was silent for a few seconds, then said.
"You can take him for customization, just say it’s my instruction."
"Alright, thank you, lord."
Okens then hung up the phone.
Inside the office.
Su Ming patiently waited, and at this ti, the door opened, and Okens walked in.
"How did it go, Lord Okens?"
Su Ming imdiately asked.
"It’s a complicated matter; at first, the Gakels City Lord was reluctant, as it would indeed occupy too much of Xiguang Laboratory’s resources. But after my repeated requests, he agreed after all."
Okens said with a broad smile.
"Thank you so much."
Su Ming breathed a long sigh of relief.
"It’s a small matter, but there’s one thing I must remind you of."
"Please go ahead."
Su Ming quickly asked.
"The cost for custom work at Xiguang Laboratory is quite high, so be ntally prepared."
"I’ll place the order no matter how expensive."
"That’s all I needed to hear, let’s go!"
Okens stood up directly.
"Huh? Where are we going?"
"Of course, to the Xiguang Laboratory chanical Departnt. I’ll personally accompany you; just making calls won’t work with those guys."
"Okay."
Su Ming imdiately responded.
Okens then led Su Ming out of the office, heading towards the underground parking lot.
