Yang Chen agreed swiftly.
This caught the senior leader somewhat off guard, he thought he would have to argue with Yang Chen, but unexpectedly it was settled so easily.
The pace was somewhat disrupted by Yang Chen.
The senior leader pondered, and slowly said, "Additionally, there's the matter of ownership and usage, after discussing with the old chief, we think..."
"Thirty percent of the overall shares go to you, technology is open for use, products are unrestricted!" Yang Chen directly stated.
The senior leader was instantly stunned, looking at Yang Chen in surprise.
Yang Chen said, "Moreover, since the discovery is mine, and the product is under my control, I will occupy forty percent of the shares, the Ye family will also participate with thirty percent of the shares, and the remaining thirty percent is yours!"
The senior leader was directly shocked by Yang Chen's words.
Yang Chen actually offered up shares directly.
This made the senior leader's prepared discussions from yesterday entirely useless.
But when he heard the Ye family also had a foot in the door, his brows couldn't help but furrow.
Yang Chen having forty percent was something he had no objections to, but the Ye family taking thirty percent, in his view, was not feasible.
"I want to ask, you said we would hold thirty percent, who exactly is this share allocated to?" the senior leader asked slowly.
Yang Chen said, "The nation, whoever is in power, without personal control."
The senior leader raised an eyebrow and said, "Then why does the Ye family get to exclusively hold thirty percent? If it's you, I have no objections, but the Ye family exclusively holding thirty, equal to the nation's proportion, does this not mean the Ye family has a monopoly? Is there a chance that, in a few years, the Ye family stands in that position and they manage to secure sixty percent of the shares? At that time, the ones with absolute control will be the Ye family, not you."
Yang Chen frowned slightly.
The senior leader continued, "Throughout history, the most ruthless is the emperor's family, if someone holds unstable sixty percent of the shares, do you think they wouldn't view the forty percent as a threat?"
The undertone of the senior leader was clear to Yang Chen.
Yang Chen frowned and pondered.
The senior leader saw Yang Chen wasn't speaking, so he advised, "I have a better method, let's include Elder Zhuo, allocate ten percent of the shares to him, five percent to Ye Xin's subordinates, another five percent to the Dragon Tooth Squad, twenty percent to the Ye family, and twenty percent to the nation. In this way, even if one side rises to power, they can only control a maximum of forty percent of the shares, but you will still closely connect with the remaining twenty, ensuring shares won't be annexed!"
Yang Chen narrowed his eyes, looking at the senior leader, "You'd rather weaken your own shares, just to pull down the Ye family?"
The senior leader shook his head, "It's not to pull down the Ye family, but to ensure the safety of Flame Country. I won't allow anyone other than you to absolutely control these things. From yesterday's events, I see clearly, as long as you don't desire the power hidden within, only you can control them. If it were someone else, they'd have long been lost. If such things are released before absolute control, the consequences will be catastrophic!"
Yang Chen nodded slightly, "I can't decide on this matter alone, let's convene a meeting, it requires everyone's agreement."
"No problem!" The senior leader's eyes gleamed, smiling as he said.
The two continued to discuss some details before Yang Chen got up to leave.
The senior leader stood up, watching Yang Chen walk away before slowly letting out a breath, sighed, "Indeed, nine heavens with clouds hiding dragons, deeply concealing, unfathomable! Imperial destiny, Star of Purple Wei, what the old sage said was indeed true! If a person like this were to become emperor, then Flame Country..."
The senior leader's gaze flickered but did not continue.
He knew, everything he did was actually under Yang Chen's control, yet he had no choice but to proceed.
The senior leader sighed, telling his companions, "Inform Elder Zhuo, I have urgent matters to discuss with him, let him come to Jin Chen!"
"Yes!"
Then he said to another person, "You notify the Ye family, the share matter requires negotiation, let's discuss it another day."
"Yes!"
Having done all this, the senior leader went back to arrange the base's renovation plan.
...
In the hospital.
Night Fire's condition was relatively stable, though the lengthy coma could only be sustained by nutritional fluids and glucose.
Even so, it was visible that Night Fire had become much frailer.
Every time Yang Chen saw Night Fire lying on the hospital bed, with various instruments and tubes inserted, he felt a certain heaviness in his heart.
He sought out the doctor.
The doctor was aware of Yang Chen, showing significant respect, somewhat nervous and apprehensive.
Yang Chen said, "A patient lying for a long time will experience muscle atrophy, have you found anyone for specialized care? Performing specialized muscle massage and training to maintain activity? I'm telling you, his body is a national treasure, absolutely no problems can occur, understood? I demand that once he awakens, his physical functions don't deteriorate much!"
"Yes, yes, yes!" The doctor nodded repeatedly, "Rest assured, I will arrange the best caretakers to ensure Mr. Night Fire's physical function!"
Yang Chen still felt uneasy, wanting to remind them further, but his phone suddenly rang.
Yang Chen thanked the doctor, then walked into a vacant room next door, taking out his phone.
It was Meng Po calling.
Yang Chen answered the call, hearing Meng Po ask, "Master, how is Night Fire?"
"The situation is fairly stable." Yang Chen replied.
"That's good, don't worry, I believe Night Fire has his own fortune, he will surely be okay." Meng Po comforted.
"Mm!" Yang Chen responded, then said, "Why did you call me?"
He knew Meng Po wouldn't have called him without reason.
Meng Po immediately said, "The Xiang family has closed the mountain!"
"Closed the mountain?" Yang Chen raised his eyebrows.
"The news broke the day before, saying they would close the mountain, all Xiang family members returned, then yesterday they found Zhang Shaoting and Zhang Qicheng, claiming to help solve the family curse; but ended up injuring the two and stole the other half of the Heart-Protecting Mirror!" Meng Po said sternly.
Yang Chen's eyes squinted instantly, voice turning cold, "Is the Xiang family seeking death?"
"Xiang Xingyu left a message with Zhang Shaoting, saying if you want to retrieve the Heart-Protecting Mirror, go to Xuan Mountain! He's waiting for you there!" Meng Po said.
Yang Chen couldn't help but laugh, "Good! Very good! This Xiang Xingyu, I like him!"
As he spoke, a fierce light flashed in Yang Chen's eyes.
Because, it's been a long time since anyone dared to provoke him like this!
The last person who spoke to him like that, the grass over their grave was already three feet tall!
