Chapter 522: Chapter 4 Undermining_3
The favored children of Lucas University, like Xu Du, never lacked for money. People like Ize, for instance, would even be too lazy to repair their equipnt if it suffered too much damage, yet even damaged equipnt was quite valuable.
As a Tard person, Ross had lived through the darkest of tis and had even earned his own tuition fees. He hardly had any money on him.
However, Xu Mo wouldn’t feel sympathy for him at all.
This guy was incredibly sly.
The next day, with the help of a female student he knew, Xu Mo drafted an agreent and lent so of his exchanged assets to Ross in the form of an investnt. However, the agreent stipulated that if they made a profit, he would take half of it after deducting costs, and if there was a loss, Ross would have to repay the debt in full.
If Ross cheated and got caught, he would have to pay more than ten tis in compensation.
It was a tyrannical clause, but Ross signed it, grinding his teeth.
Life at the Library was extrely fulfilling.
People ca to ‘spectate’ Xu Mo every day.
At the mont, he sat at a table reading a book, with Sorey beside him, who asked, “I’ve been chasing a girl recently, a local noble from Lucas Star. She doesn’t want anything, what does that an?”
Xu Mo glanced at him and ignored him.
Was this guy getting addicted to it?
He could see now that, apart from throwing money around, Sorey had no other strategies. After the events of last ti, who would dare to agree to him?
“Good brother.” Sorey pulled out a stack of interstellar coins and stuffed them into Xu Mo’s hand.
Xu Mo pocketed them and said, “Business image.”
“Business image?” Sorey asked, while Xu Mo continued to read.
Sorey showed an understanding look and then took out three more stacks and handed them over to Xu Mo.
“I’m not soone who’d betray their beliefs for interstellar coins, but seeing your dedication to love, I believe the Soray brothers are serious this ti,” Xu Mo said as Zero curled her lip disdainfully on the side.
“Your pursuit of Ms. Isaien last ti has left you with a bad image. Now, any girl with a bit of self-respect won’t accept your gifts any longer, otherwise… you get it, right?” Xu Mo looked at Sorey.
“So, how do I make ands?” Sorey understood what Xu Mo ant.
After all, this was Lucas University, and the female students here had so status of their own.
“You need to rebuild your image, which is to say, your business image. You can’t continue like before,” Xu Mo said.
“How do I rebuild it?” Sorey didn’t quite understand.
“For example, an image of a powerful Transcendent, or, of an extrely intelligent genius,” Xu Mo said.
“All I have is money,” Sorey complained dejectedly.
“Then create a business elite image,” Xu Mo suggested.
“I’m not very good at that. Odin Mountain Star’s resources have no lack of buyers; they all do interstellar business,” Sorey said.
“……,” Xu Mo expressed his envy.
“No matter, we’ll have an opportunity to collaborate in the future,” Xu Mo said. “We’ll do sothing grand and influential and change your image.”
Sorey looked at Xu Mo, then nodded and asked, “When do we start? Can we begin now?”
“Don’t rush it,” Xu Mo patted Sorey on the shoulder. “It’s a big deal; we’ll wait for the right mont.”
“Good, that’s what I’d expect from my brother Sorey,” Sorey said, and many people glanced their way, making Xu Mo feel his reputation was utterly ruined.
However, he liked this kind of brother, who was wealthy and bold.
He wondered when Byron Star would complete their research. In order to grow and expand, they needed to recruit collaborators; relying solely on Byron’s power was not enough.
“Xu Mo, I’m looking for chanical books, do you have any recomndations?” A beautiful female student ca over to ask. Zero lifted her head, and the girl imdiately stopped advancing.
“Third floor, Section C, row five. You should find what you’re looking for there,” Xu Mo said casually. Lately, many people had been directly asking him for recomndations, which annoys him imnsely.
The Library was too vast. Students used to have to search for books on their own, which was ti-consuming and often fruitless, but there had been rumors that Xu Mo’s recomndations were always spot-on, drawing increasingly more people seeking his advice.
“Thank you, Xu Mo,” the girl said with a smile and even gave Zero a provocative look.
Zero didn’t bother with her.
“Xu Mo,” another voice called out, and Xu Mo looked up to see two figures approaching. It was Arthur and Yekaterina, whom he’d t for the first ti at the Library.
“Ms. Yekaterina, Ms. Arthur,” Xu Mo called out.
“Xu Mo, do you take employnt?” Yekaterina asked, looking at him.
“Employnt?” Xu Mo looked back at her.
Zero lifted her head vigilantly, staring at Xu Mo.
“I already have an employer,” Xu Mo said weakly.
“Yekaterina Family can offer you better conditions, no matter what your previous salary was, I can pay ten tis that,” Yekaterina said boldly, revealing the wealth and boldness characteristic of a mber of the Carolan Star Royal Family, attempting to poach him right in front of Zero.
“Ten tis, huh…” Xu Mo was sowhat tempted and asked Zero, “Can I work a part-ti job?”
Zero, unable to tolerate it any longer, drew her sword.
“Just kidding!” Xu Mo shouted!
