Chapter 940: String-Puller
The host announced, “Announcing all data of the Orange and Yellow-level Double Honorary Aristocrat, Young Master Hong Dali.”
It had started! It was finally ti for Hong Dali’s data to be released.
So, under the watchful eye of everyone in the audience, Hong Dali’s data was made known one by one.
On the holographic projection, the first item to be shown were two golden attribute gems. Just as everyone was getting curious about them, words which explained what they were appeared next to them—
“Two energy gems which increase energy by 50%. Role: Young Master Hong Dali beca a Double Honorary Aristocrat with them. Recipients: Yin Tianzong and Jiang Qianxue. This was the premise of Hong Dali becoming a Double Honorary Aristocrat, so they are not counted as part of the total investnt.”
As soon as these data were announced, there was an uproar.
Yin Tianzong and Jiang Qianxue almost wanted to hide under the table. As for the Honorary Aristocrats, they had already burst into uncontrollable laughter—
“Hahahaha, I heard that Hong Dali was a string-puller. So this was how he beca an Honorary Aristocrat? A gift of two energy gems which can increase energy by 50% is really generous. Such gems are worth hundreds of thousands at least, right?”
“Yes, he really put in a lot of capital to co in through the back-door. This is interesting, he is really daring when it cos to spending money!”
“Eh, how do you think soone who beca a Double Aristocrat using such ans managed to defeat Li Haokong the Black and White-level Double Aristocrat?”
“Need you ask, there must be an error in the data.”
“Cough, cough!” As he listened to the whispered ridicule from the surrounding Honorary Aristocrats, Jiang Dongliu could not help but blush and cough loudly. When the voices finally quietened down, he said in a stern voice, “Everyone, be quiet, quiet! Keep reading before you talk.”
Hong Dali continued sleeping soundly. “Huu... huu...”
So they continued looking at the rest of the data.
Next were the shops located in Star Harbor. The text explained—
“There are a few shops in Star Harbor, with a total investnt of 7.35 million.”
Upon seeing this, everyone beca curious. They thought. “These stores were said to be losing money. I don’t know how they are doing now, but I guess it’s not bad as long as they are not making a loss?” There were so people who seed to have a better source of information than others. They whispered, “Hong Dali is really not losing any money at these stores. I heard that they are very valuable now.”
The text displayed: “Current valuation: 31.2 million.”
As soon as they saw the number, everyone was imdiately stunned. “This... cannot be? An investnt of 7.35 million with a valuation of 31.2 million? A net profit rate of four tis?! This... this...”
No wonder they were surprised. Such a high-profit margin was indeed considered very good.
This was especially so given that everyone knew Hong Dali claid to be a super-prodigal. He had dabbled in many things and this was just one of them.
The second item was a batch of attribute gems bought by Hong Dali. The text explained: “Raw sealed attribute gems totaling 8 million Galaxy Dollars. After Hong Dali unsealed and inlaid them, the final auction price was 80 million Galaxy Dollars. Among them, a full set of attributes 12 top-grade equipnt, auction price 70 million Galaxy Dollars. The buyer was Young Master Li Tianxing.”
As soon as he saw this, Li Tianxing’s face went through a myriad of expressions.
He never dread that the equipnt he had bought in order to please Jiang Qianxue was actually Hong Dali’s!
Eight million worth of sealed gems were sold for 80 million, a tenfold profit, of which 70 million was contributed by him ...
Li Tianxing was practically crying inside. He was not feeling heartache about the money spent, he was mainly ntally anguished over the fact that the money had been earned by Hong Dali, whom he hated the most...
Especially tragic was that Li Xuancheng also turned around and gave him a dark stare—brat, you had better not leave after the eting, or else!
At this ti, everyone else was stunned. “What kind of luck does Hong Dali have? He sold gems that he bought at 8 million for 80 million?” “A whole set of 12 attribute equipnt? This is a bit exaggerated, right? Are these things so easily excavated?”
In fact, Ling Xiaoyi held sothing back when reporting these attribute gems to the reviewer.
After all, the origin of those top-grade attribute gems was a little strange, so Ling Xiaoyi simply lumped them all together. Anyway, the gems had already been unsealed and sold. No one would know how many of those gems were top-grade...
The holographic projection continued to display Hong Dali’s properties.
This ti it was a relatively large spaceship manufacturing factory, the text stated—
“Dali Spacecraft Manufacturing Plant was ford by the rger of three ordinary-scale spacecraft manufacturing plants with a total investnt of 33 million. Currently, 3,600 spaceships have been ordered, including imitations of Granzon, Valsion, Black Angel, Dragon Tiger King, and The Snow Angel. There are 1,400 orders for chas which look like these five chas. Total orders 134 million, and the contracts have all been signed. After deducting costs, the net profit is 84 million.”
Everyone’s eyes widened, and they all gasped.
A spacecraft manufacturing plant bought for 33 million actually achieved a net profit of 84 million in such a short period of ti?
Many people started talking about this. “This... it hasn’t been long since Hong Dali bought the manufacturing plant, right? Did he report the correct data?” “He should have. After all, Hong Dali is the champion of the Galaxy Super cha Wars. It’s within reason for the celebrity effect to result in such a high order volu.” “Damn, Hong Dali’s luck is fantastic. I watched the battle between him and Lord Tianxing, and he won purely based on luck!”
No wonder they were so surprised. After all, luck played a huge part in Hong Dali winning the Galaxy Super cha Wars. So, Li Tianxing who was on the podium was particularly depressed. “Hong Dali, I didn’t expect that you winning would have an impact on this!”
In fact, Li Tianxing was indeed quite tragic.
The 200 million bonus, as well as the reward of the Azure Root Bones-Forging Grass from winning the Galaxy Super cha Wars, would have had no effect on his net profit margin. But the problem was that the advertising effect that the champion brought about was another matter. That was within the rules. Who could say anything about it?
By this ti, many people had begun to look up to Hong Dali.
Most importantly, all these businesses and deals Hong Dali carried out were quite profitable.
While everyone was getting surprised, Hong Dali was still sleeping. “Huu... Huu...”
Obviously, if everything that had been shown up till now was only regarded as appetizers, then what followed was the entree!
“Won’s Clothing chain company, total purchase price: 37 million. At present, there are 26,500 applicants for the franchise. The franchise fee is 6,000 Galaxy Dollars, which makes a total of 157.8 million. The profit of clothing sales in each chain store is 3,500 Galaxy Dollars, the total profit is 249.985 million Galaxy Dollars and paynt has been fully settled.”
Li Xuancheng: “...” Li Haokong: “...” Jiang Dongliu: “...” The others: “...”
“He invested 37 million in a clothing company.” Even Jiang Dongliu could not believe it. “But created a net profit of nearly 250 million?! This... this ratio...”
Were they for real?! A total investnt of less than 40 million but a net profit of 250 million, six tis the investnt?!
One had to understand that when investnts cost up to 40 million, it was extrely hard to even double the profit, let alone six tis!
After all, the higher the total capital, the harder it was to double it! The Black and White-level Double Aristocrat Li Haokong invested a total of nearly 300 million in the Imperial Galaxy Hotel and had a net profit not exceeding 300 million a year. And here, a clothing company with an investnt of less than 40 million had a profit of 250 million?!
“God, is Hong Dali joking? A profit six tis the investnt?!” “Yeah, it’s scary as f**k! Too fierce!” “Can this be possible? If he goes on like this, he’ll be going against the heavens!” “Stop it. It seems that there was no error in the data when he challenged the Black and White-level...” “Eh, look, Li Haokong doesn’t look so good...”
Sure enough, Li Haokong’s face had gone a little pale, and he had a strong urge to kill Hong Dali. “How is it possible? Are you trying to go against the heavens? A full six-fold ratio, f**k!”
Hong Dali: “Hu... Hu...”
“Hahaha, okay.” Jiang Dongliu smiled happily. “Hong Dali is indeed able, hahaha.” Then, he quickly took a sip of water. “Let calm myself first, haha!”
As for the other Honorary Aristocrats, they had turned green with envy.
They put in everything they had and worked hard for a whole year. A profit margin of 100% or 200% was already aweso. Then look at Hong Dali, that was making money!
The problem now was that Hong Dali’s title of a superprodigal had made its way into people’s hearts. Almost everyone knew that Hong Dali had been buying too many things in order to squander—furthermore, those were all businesses that were making losses...
“This Dali.” Jiang Qianxue was in a very good mood at this ti. “I knew having him co here was the right choice!” Yes, she had already forgotten the matter about Hong Dali bribing her with the energy gem...
At this ti, everyone was working hard to compose themselves. After the audience had finally quieted down, the holographic projection began to announce the remaining industries.
“Dali Food Processing Company, purchase price of 9.4 million. The current production of Dali Chocolate is set at 320 million pieces. The average price of each piece is 1.2 Galaxy Dollars, the cost is 0.8 Galaxy Dollars, and the profit of one piece is 0.4 Galaxy Dollars. 320 million pieces make a net profit of 128 million.”
If everyone was still able to accept everything that had co up so far, this item was sure to have everyone on their knees...
The food factory with a purchase price of 9.4 million actually created a net profit of 128 million!
