As a result, what one fears the most has co to pass.
Shao Yuandong’s call ca through. Obviously, it was still about that matter.
"Old Li, from your tone, it sounds like you’re not too happy to hear from ."
Shao Yuandong was in a good mood and even made a joke.
"How could that be!"
Li Jian imdiately denied it, "Old Shao, am I that kind of person? It’s just that I’ve been too tired recently, you know, with the Beast Tide arriving, all sorts of things have co up, and it’s worn out."
After he finished speaking, he even yawned.
"Oh really?"
Shao Yuandong breathed a sigh of relief and said, "I thought you were afraid I’d ask you for money."
"Hahaha."
Li Jian chuckled and gritted his teeth, saying, "How could that be? A gentleman’s word is his bond, once I’ve promised you sothing, I wouldn’t go back on it."
One million points is a lot, but it can’t compare to his reputation.
If people lost trust in him, it would be quite awkward seeing each other around the city.
"So, Old Li, you’re willing to sponsor a bit?"
"Still the agreed amount, one million points. Any more than that, and it’s not doable." Li Jian said truthfully.
It’s not that he couldn’t provide more, he just didn’t see it as necessary.
Even in the current situation, digging up an A-level Awakened wouldn’t cost more than a million points.
"Hahaha, Old Li, you’re not bad. I thought you would go back on your word."
"Is that what you think of ?" Li Jian was a bit displeased, "I’ll transfer a million points to your account later. By the way, have you talked to Wang Lu about this?"
"No, I called you first. Also, the reason for this call isn’t to ask for points but to give you points." Shao Yuandong said with a chuckle.
"What?"
Li Jian was stunned, "What did you just say? I didn’t hear it clearly."
"I said, my call isn’t to ask for points, but to give you points. And the amount I’m giving you is more than ten tis what you owe ."
"More than ten tis?"
Even Li Jian couldn’t help but widen his eyes.
A million points was already a significant amount for soone like him.
If that amount were multiplied by ten, it would be ten million points!
Ten million points is an enormous sum.
And yet, it was more than that.
"No way."
Li Jian quickly regained his composure, and with a cold snort, said, "Old Shao, are you trying to ss with because you have nothing better to do? I’m telling you, I don’t have ti to play around."
"Do you think I have ti to play around?" Shao Yuandong was exasperated, "This twenty million points deal—do you want it or not? If not, I’ll find soone else."
In other large cities’ Awakened Associations, there are also plenty of Heavenly Materials and Earthly Treasures that can enhance a Martial Artist’s Primordial True Essence.
At worst, he’d just have to make a trip.
If Li Jian had hesitated or refused outright, he would indeed look for soone else to partner with.
"Old Shao, are you serious?"
Li Jian shuddered, "A twenty million points deal? Is it for real?"
"What would be the point of lying to you? Besides, I already completed a deal worth over ten million points. Unfortunately, the items needed by that client ran out at our branch, or else, do you think I’d offer them to you?"
Li Jian’s breathing imdiately quickened.
A twenty million points deal could net him a profit of several million!
"Old Shao, what’s the deal? Who has the ability to co up with thirty to forty million points?"
He really suspected whether Shao Yuandong was trying to deceive him.
But the other party’s tone seed credible.
"Want to know? Co to my place."
Shao Yuandong laughed, "I guarantee you won’t be disappointed, and this deal is within your grasp."
Li Jian hesitated for a mont but eventually agreed.
"Fine, I’ll co over. But Old Shao, let’s get this straight—if I find that this deal isn’t as straightforward as you say, you know the consequences."
"Don’t worry. If it’s not as I said, I’ll pay you out of my own pocket."
"Alright."
Li Jian hung up the phone.
He looked ahead.
He wanted to see, what secret was hidden up the other’s sleeve?
Shao Yuandong dialed another number.
This ti, it was picked up within three seconds.
"Is it about what was ntioned in the video?"
A woman’s voice rang out, getting straight to the point, "I’ve already prepared the one million points, ready to be transferred to you at any ti."
"Chairman Wang, you’re too kind."
Shao Yuandong dropped his playful tone from his earlier conversation with Chairman Li, "The main reason I’m calling is to invite you over. I’ve been commissioned by soone to purchase treasures worth about twenty million points from your branch."
"What?"
Wang Lu’s previously furrowed brows imdiately relaxed.
"Purchasing treasures worth twenty million points, Chairman Shao, are you serious?"
"Very serious."
Shao Yuandong anticipated her reaction and explained, "I’ve already called Chairman Li, and he should be arriving shortly. Chairman Wang, please co over now. There are so things that are difficult to explain over the phone. You’ll understand everything when we et. Trust , Chairman Wang, you won’t regret coming."
Wang Lu hesitated for a while, "Alright, I’ll trust you one more ti, Chairman Shao."
Clearly, she still had reservations about the issue they discussed during the early morning video call.
"Good."
Shao Yuandong also sighed, chuckling helplessly.
These two still thought that Li Ping was a nobody.
That’s why he wanted to get both of them together, to avoid having to explain twice.
In less than a minute, Li Jian and Wang Lu arrived in the office.
Evidently, they had talked beforehand.
"Old Shao, tell us, what kind of twenty million points deal is this?"
Li Jian finished speaking and leaned back on the sofa, giving Shao Yuandong a sidelong glance, as if to say he wouldn’t let him off if he couldn’t explain properly.
Wang Lu sat on the other side, arms crossed, watching coldly.
"Heh."
Shao Yuandong smiled slightly and ran his fingers over a ring.
The next mont, a row of Treasure dicines appeared on the coffee table in front of them.
Instantly, the whole room was filled with fragrance.
"What’s this!"
Li Jian, who had been leaning on the sofa, imdiately sat up straight, staring at the dozen or so Treasure dicines on the table, almost drooling.
As the saying goes, amateurs watch the fun, while experts see the skill.
As an A-level Awakened and a branch head, he could imdiately tell these Treasure dicines ca from a Secret Realm. Only those dicines contain such potent Spiritual Power.
Wang Lu’s crossed arms also relaxed. Her expression wasn’t as exaggerated as Li Jian’s, but she was equally shocked.
She recognized most of these Treasure dicines, and each one was worth at least 3 million points.
There were ten in total, making it 30 million points.
Thirty million points, just laid out like that, even making her breathing quicken.
Fortunately, she’s been through bigger deals before.
"Chairman Shao, these Treasure dicines?"
She looked up at Shao Yuandong, her gaze softening.
After all, who would refuse such a deal, and the money was right in front of them.
"Of course, it’s the transaction I ntioned over the phone. These are just the down paynt." Shao Yuandong sat down on the sofa, placing his hands on the armrests with a faint smile.
"Just the down paynt!"
Upon hearing this, Li Jian and Wang Lu exchanged glances, their already excited hearts pounding even more.
Thirty million points, each person getting fifteen million.
Fifteen million, and it’s just the down paynt?
