"Indeed."
Seeing the astonished expressions on the faces of the two, Shao Yuandong’s smile carried a deeper meaning.
It was known that the real show was just beginning.
Han Xu stood to the side, also somewhat expectant in his heart.
After all, the midnight meeting was because of him, and during the meeting, although the two chairmen didn’t explicitly say they didn’t believe him, any perceptive person could see what was going on.
"These are just the deposit. Besides these, how much more you can earn depends on how many of those desired items each of your branch offices has."
"What does he want?"
As soon as Shao Yuandong finished speaking, the voices of Li Jian and Wang Lu almost simultaneously sounded.
Then, they glanced at each other, both looking a bit embarrassed.
After hanging up the phone with Shao Yuandong, Wang Lu didn’t rush over immediately.
Instead, she planned to call Li Jian first to see what was going on.
Coincidentally, Li Jian had sent a message, so the two briefly discussed.
With the previous night’s experience, they were skeptical about what Shao Yuandong mentioned on the phone.
However, since the other party had called to invite them, and talked in such a convincing manner, it really wouldn’t take long to make a trip.
What if what he said was true?
Turns out, Shao Yuandong was indeed telling the truth, presenting Heavenly Materials and Earthly Treasures worth over thirty million right from the start.
He even said they could earn more.
"He wants Heavenly Materials and Earthly Treasures that can enhance Primordial True Essence. It doesn’t matter how effective they are, as long as they can enhance it, he wants as much as you have," Shao Yuandong said.
"Heavenly Materials and Earthly Treasures that can enhance Primordial True Essence?"
Wang Lu’s eyes showed surprise, "Could it be that he is a Martial Artist? No, not necessarily."
She shook her head.
Some Awakened individuals also happen to be Martial Artists.
For instance, those three S-Class Awakened are also Martial Artists.
"As long as it can enhance Primordial True Essence, he wants it?"
Li Jian felt as if he was dreaming.
So simple?
"Yes."
Shao Yuandong smiled and said, "In our association, all Heavenly Materials and Earthly Treasures that can enhance Primordial True Essence have been bought by him, with over ten million points as his payment."
As if fearing the two might not believe him, he waved his hand, placing five or six Cyan Jade Fruits on the table.
Li Jian and Wang Lu immediately took a deep breath.
They both recognized these Treasure Medicines.
Each one is worth at least three million points.
"Old Shao, I am not sure how much Heavenly Materials and Earthly Treasures that can enhance Primordial True Essence my branch office possesses, but we have at least thirty million points worth of them. Are you certain he wants all those treasures?"
Li Jian licked his lips, feeling the kind of nervousness he hadn’t felt in a long time.
"My branch has fewer such treasures, only over twenty million points worth," Wang Lu said, glancing at Li Jian.
Combined, their treasures were worth over fifty million points.
"No problem."
Shao Yuandong said without hesitation, "Then I’ll have to trouble you both to return to your branches, gather the treasures, and I’ll notify you when he comes again. As for the items on the table, each of you take half, and the remaining will be settled later."
"We can take them now?"
Both of them were in disbelief.
"Why not?"
Shao Yuandong joked, "I’d love to make this money, but too bad, I can’t. If you don’t want to take them, you can leave them here."
"Please, Chairman Shao, keep them for now," Wang Lu thought and said.
It felt too easy to get these points, giving her a sense of unreality.
So for the sake of caution, it would be better to exchange the treasures for points on sight.
"Alright," Shao Yuandong agreed, then looked at Li Jian.
"Old Li, what about you?"
"I..."
Li Jian looked at the table, feeling tempted, but after thinking, he said, "Please also keep my share for now."
"Alright, since both of you say so, I’ll keep them until he arrives, then hand them over to you," Shao Yuandong said with a smile.
At first glance, these deposits didn’t seem to serve their purpose as deposits, as if they were unnecessary.
But in reality, without these items presented at the start, the other two might not have believed him so easily.
"Old Shao, after talking so much, who exactly is this client? Do we know him?"
Li Jian couldn’t help asking.
Shao Yuandong exchanged a smile with Han Xu beside him.
"Yes, you do know him."
"I thought so."
Li Jian nodded.
In the entire Yan Country, very few could immediately produce fifty or sixty million points.
For instance, those three S-Class Awakened, or some Noble Family member.
The former seemed unlikely.
With their power, obtaining those items wouldn’t require buying from others.
Whatever they desired, a word from them and people would quickly deliver the items to them.
Thus, it had to be a Noble Family.
As families that had existed for hundreds or even thousands of years, their resources far exceeded what ordinary people could imagine.
Moreover, most of them were Martial Artists themselves, needing those treasures to enhance Primordial True Essence.
But taking out forty or fifty million points at once, such a large sum, would only be possible for families with elders.
