“What did you say?
Wang Xiao was stunned and doubted his ears. “You an… you want to kick out of the team?”
Chen Jinrong did not say anything and only nodded casually.
Wang Xiao imdiately lost his composure. He stood up and asked in shock, “Commander Chen, why would you do this? A few days ago, you insisted that I go. Now, you want to kick out. What do you take for? Are you playing gas?”
“Watch your words!”
Chen Jinrong glared at Wang Xiao with a hint of displeasure on his face. “I chose to let you lead the team because I value your ability, but you used this to threaten . What do you take for?”
Before Wang Xiao could open his mouth and say anything, Chen Jinrong’s expression darkened and he continued, “This school exchange is very important. There can’t be any mistakes.”
“Since you threatened to cause trouble on the road and I don’t want to be threatened by you, the easiest way is to kick you out of the team and nip the uncertainty in the bud—what do you think?”
Wang Xiao opened his mouth and did not say anything. He mainly did not know what to say.
Only now did he realize that he seed to have overlooked an important question. Was he that important in this matter?
In tne previous rew Incidents, Decause wang Mao was Das1ca11Y tne mam party involved, no matter what request he made, Chen Jinrong would basically satisfy it. Even if he really could not satisfy it, he would find another way to compensate him.
However, this school exchange was different. This event was initiated by Chen Jinrong, and the initiative was completely not in Wang Xiao’s hands.
Looking at the stubborn Chen Jinrong, Wang Xiao pursed his lips and thought for a mont. He decisively squeezed out a bright smile. “Commander Chen, perhaps I didn’t make it clear. Actually, it’s not much of a threat. I just want to discuss sothing with you.”
“You changed your mind so quickly?”
Chen Jinrong looked at Wang Xiao with a faint smile. It was obvious that he did not believe his words. However, he then nodded. “Tell about it first.”
“Then I’ll say it?”
Wang Xiao probed. At the sa ti, his thoughts had already changed.
From the current situation, it was most likely impossible to replace Liu Yingying. At least for now, Wang Xiao did not see any possibility.
However, if he returned just like that, Wang Xiao would feel that he woke up early for nothing. Therefore, he had to get sothing from Chen Jinrong today!
As he thought to himself, Wang Xiao had already prepared his words. He said with a serious expression, “Commander Chen, I’m already a level four lord.”
Chen Jinrong nodded. “And?”
Wang Xiao widened his eyes slightly. “What kind of reaction is this? Aren’t you surprised that I’m a level four lord now?”
“Why should I be surprised?”
Chen Jinrong spread out his hands. “I personally issued the order to distribute the [Core Upgrade Stones] in advance. However, I’m indeed a little surprised that you gathered the upgrade resources so quickly.”
“Commander Chen, you’re too kind…”
Wang Xiao smiled bitterly and continued to open the trap calmly. “Actually, I didn’t gather receive those resources. I bought those upgrade items from the Lord’s Shop.”
Hearing this, Chen Jinrong’s expression changed slightly. “Don’t tell you want to reimburse you for the matter you’re discussing with ?”
“No, no! How is that possible?”
When Wang Xiao heard this, he hurriedly waved his hand and said seriously, “Since I used the resources, I naturally have to repay this debt. However, I’m still a student now and don’t have any way to earn money, so…”
At this point, Wang Xiao deliberately paused for a few seconds. As expected, Chen Jinrong could not help but ask, “Why? If you have sothing to say, say it. Don’t hesitate!”
“That’s why I want you to introduce to soone!”
Wang Xiao stomped his feet as if he had made up his mind and looked at Chen Jinrong sincerely. “I heard that the military controls many secret realms with rare minerals, such as the [Black Gold Ore]…’
Wang Xiao had long agreed with the Lord’s Shop to use the [Black Gold Ore] to settle the accounts. The reason why the Lord’s Shop agreed to this condition was largely related to the scarcity of the [Black Gold Ore].
Secret realms that could be used to mine the Black Gold Ore were very rare. There might not even be one in a thousand secret realms. Moreover, almost all the secret realms that the [Black Gold Ore] could form in were controlled by the military. Ordinary people were not even qualified to enter.
It was also because of this that even if the Lord’s Shop needed the [Black Gold Ore], they could only spend a large sum of money to buy it from the military. This was only because the Lord’s Shop was extrely powerful. If it were anyone else, they would probably not even be able to find this thod.
As for Wang Xiao, who had the [tal Devouring Ant], even in a secret realm with less abundant [Black Gold Ore] reserves, he could still mine a few units. At that ti, he could use the “ten thousandfold quantity increase” to repay the
CleDt.
However, speaking of which, if there was a chance to earn money in front of him, who would despise having more money?
If he could enter a secret realm with abundant reserves because of Chen Jinrong, even if he only mined 100 units of black gold ore, it would still be a million units after the ten thousandfold enhancent.
At that ti, not only could Wang Xiao settle his debt, but he could also buy another batch of resources to advance to level five. He could even obtain the resources for Zhou Xiruo to advance to level five!
Of course, all of this had to be based on the smoothness of the negotiations.
Moreover, from Chen Jinrong’s clearly gloomy expression at this mont, this “discussion” did not seem to be as smooth as Wang Xiao had imagined.
As expected.
The mont Wang Xiao finished speaking, Chen Jinrong’s palm slapped the table heavily with a bang!
The teacup and pen bounced high. Chen Jinrong frowned and glared at Wang Xiao. “Black Gold Ore? You really dare to open your mouth! Do you know that this is a global strategic resource? Even I have to apply to the military headquarters to mobilize it?”
Wang Xiao did not expect Chen Jinrong to have such a huge reaction. He was stunned for a mont before hurriedly saying, “Commander Chen, don’t be agitated first. I know that the [Black Gold Ore] is a rare resource. I’m just discussing it with you!”
“There’s nothing to discuss!”
Chen Jinrong waved his hand without any explanation. “If you lack money, I can give you 500,000 star coins in my personal na. If you want the [Black Gold Ore], don’t even think about it!”
“What’s 500,000 yuan for? I owe more than 100 billion!”
Wang Xiao thought to himself, but he still had a smile on his face. “Commander Chen, actually, I have a win-win solution. Not only can I obtain the [Black Gold Ore], but I might also be able to let you make a small contribution… Why don’t you listen to first?”
“Do you think I need a small contribution?”
Chen Jinrong snorted coldly, but when he saw Wang Xiao’s persistent expression, he finally waved his hand.. “Tell about it first!”
