Mr. Li lowered his head to look at the long string of numbers on the bill. After a long silence, he turned his head and said softly to the employee beside him.
"Can it be cheaper?"
"It can be."
The employee took out a pen from his pocket and drew a few lines on the paper: "I’ll cut off all the odd numbers, Mr. Li. You only need to pay 11 million units of iron ore."
"Alright."
Mr. Li took a deep breath and waved his hand. A follower behind him stepped forward and took out a spatial bag from his pocket to make the paynt.
What’s owed must still be paid.
Initially, he hadn’t expected that guy’s Stellar Giant Beast to be so terrifying. Even in its juvenile phase, it possessed such formidable power. It must have at least a C-level, if not B-level potential as a Stellar Giant Beast.
Damn it!
If the historical records were correct, he rembered that the last leader of the "chanical Civilization" had a Stellar Giant Beast with only a B-level potential, and even that was the highest-potential Stellar Giant Beast ever tad in history.
A D-level potential Stellar Giant Beast can be obtained through "breeding."
To get a higher-potential Stellar Giant Beast, you need to capture it.
Not to ntion the level of danger involved.
The universe is so vast that acquiring a Stellar Giant Beast is not a simple task.
If that guy’s Stellar Giant Beast had B-level potential, where did it co from? Could he have gotten it from the ruins of the "chanical Civilization"?
Mr. Li walked with his head down, deep in thought.
That guy is definitely not a pirate.
As for a more advanced identity, he couldn’t figure it out. Anyway, he seed to have a stronger foundation than the son of a Level 1 Civilization leader like him. Could he be from a Level 2 Civilization?
No, that’s not right either.
He had interacted with people from Level 2 Civilizations before; each had their noses in the air.
They would never be so gentle with them.
The girl and the old man walking behind exchanged glances, feeling a bit awkward.
After a mont.
The old man was the first to break the silence and said softly, "Miss, although it seems to you that I am colluding with outsiders to annex your father’s assets, in reality..."
"Isn’t that exactly what’s happening?"
The girl said softly, "Now you know to call Miss? It’s been a long-lost title indeed."
"What took you so long."
Originally walking ahead in thought, Mr. Li heard this from behind, furrowing his brow slightly. He stopped and turned to the girl with a calm and serious look, saying, "You seem to not understand the situation."
"In the four-way win-win that Master Mang ntioned."
"I have resources from the ’Scallion Civilization’ to use, Master Mang possesses enough integration capabilities and absolute strength, and this Wang you speak of has rich experience in implenting plans. The three of us are indispensable."
"And you—"
"Your only function is to hand over the ’train authority’; aside from that, there’s no other purpose."
"Master Mang’s thods are relatively gentle, and I am a reasonable person, which is why you can stand here whole until now. Bringing you along was entirely because Master Mang is kind-hearted. I hope you can speak with less hostility in the future, more peacefully."
Then, Mr. Li patted Wang’s shoulder without saying anything further and walked forward briskly.
Now we just wait for Master Mang to wipe out the "Philia Pirate Group," and the plan can officially begin.
He didn’t know if Master Mang could do it.
But he trusted Master Mang.
Through this conversation, he had been completely won over by Master Mang, unlike those official second-generation rich kids who only knew how to fight and mocked each other at the drop of a hat, making him feel that he and Master Mang were of the sa kind.
There was a sense of superiority in his mindset.
Every ti he thought of those frivolous friends of his, he felt superior.
Most importantly—
He noticed a follower behind Master Mang, whose attire from head to toe was all from the high-end luxury brand "Fiery Sun" of the chanical Civilization, valued at nearly 1 billion units of iron ore!
Even though it was sowhat embarrassing,
he indeed took a few detailed glances, pretending not to, and the workmanship and logo all seed real, not fake.
If Master Mang wore such clothes, he wouldn’t think much of it.
After all, although expensive,
it wasn’t sothing he couldn’t afford; it just depended on whether he wanted to spend the money. But even a follower wore clothes worth billions, which suggested how frightful Master Mang’s wealth was.
Such is the glimpse when the autumn leaf is seen.
However, he learned a lesson: such high luxury branded clothes, when worn by the subordinates, made you look even more impressive than when you wore them yourself.
...
"Sigh."
The old man sighed softly, then turned his head to the girl and said gently, "You know too little about the universe. Once you know more, you’ll realize you’ve never t a truly bad person in your life."
"You can’t suppress ."
"So I must rebel."
"If I don’t rebel against you, those below will rebel against ."
"Even though it sounds immoral, this is the objective law of developnt, independent of human will. Even if I want to firmly support you, those below will rebel; to be a leader, you must first display the deanor of a leader."
"If you were Master Mang."
"I would never have a second thought in my life."
"Why?"
The girl looked at the old man, tears welling in her eyes, and said word by word, "You’ve watched grow up since I was little. You would rebel against ; how could you not rebel against him?"
"Of course."
The old man sighed with so emotions and said, "If I rebelled against him, I would die."
"If I rebel against you, would I die?"
"Do you have the ans to kill ?"
"Co on, miss, these things won’t happen in the future. Master Mang has both strong power and ans. If the master were still alive, he would admire Master Mang greatly. With Master Mang in charge, nothing would go wrong; everything is developing in a positive direction."
