1791 Gathering! The Constellation Society! (2)
Ji Haochen: …
He felt like hitting someone now.
Everyone laughed secretly when they saw his exasperated expression.
“Alright, Tutu, stop teasing him.” Yue Qiqiao covered her mouth and laughed.
“Alright, since Sister Yue has spoken, I’ll let him go this time.” Tu Xiaoba chuckled.
w.a.n.g Teng smiled and shook his head. “Before that, let me introduce someone.”
He looked at Treant Boret, who was sitting quietly at the side and introduced him with a smile.
“A Treant!”
Everyone sized up Boret curiously.
Treant races were rare in the universe, especially powerful ones.
The fact that Boret could enter the stellar academy indicated that he wasn’t weak. What’s more, w.a.n.g Teng was the one who introduced him to them. It was natural for them to speculate.
There was no one weak on w.a.n.g Teng’s side.
This Treant must have some unique qualities to gain w.a.n.g Teng’s recognition.
“h.e.l.lo everyone, please take care of me in the future,” Boret scratched his crown and said.
Everyone gave face and introduced themselves.
Then, w.a.n.g Teng started the main topic. He elaborated his plans to compete for business with the academy.
“Make pills!”
“Forge weapons!”
“And sell them!”
“s.n.a.t.c.hing business from the academy is a good idea!”
Everyone’s eyes lit up when they heard this. Their breathing quickened as if they saw countless points flying towards them.
“d.a.m.n, w.a.n.g Teng, you truly are a great brother. You are sharing this good business with us,” Ji Haochen said. He was almost moved to tears.
Only he knew how financially tight he had been recently. Points were needed everywhere in the academy, and the ones he received when he first entered were quickly running out. He felt like he had never been this poor before.
The others were excited too. For senior students, earning points was never an easy task, let alone for new students.
w.a.n.g Teng had opened up a path to wealth for them. How could they not be thrilled?
“Does anyone have any objections?” w.a.n.g Teng asked.
“I have no objections. If I can earn points, anything is fine” Ji Haochen shook his head hurriedly.
“Can you have some dignity?” Yue Qiqiao was speechless.
“If you have points, why do you need your dignity?” Ji Haochen chuckled.
“I can’t be bothered with you.” Yue Qiqiao rolled her eyes. She turned serious and said, “I think there’s something we need to discuss further.”
Everyone was stunned when they saw her serious expression.
w.a.n.g Teng also raised an eyebrow, unsure of what Yue Qiqiao was up to. She hadn’t expressed any opinions before.
“Various materials are needed for making pills and forging weapons,” Yue Qiqiao said slowly when the group turned their attention to her.
The others quickly understood what she wanted to say.
“Although the majority of the points earned from selling these items will go to w.a.n.g Teng, and we’re only responsible for the sales and taking a certain percentage, I believe we should also fork out some points to purchase materials.”
“There will definitely be buyers for these items. We’re getting a significant advantage here, and it wouldn’t be fair to acquire a large number of points without contributing anything,” Yue Qiqiao stated.
“No need to worry about it so much. It’s not that serious. I don’t feel like dealing with the selling aspect, and it works out perfectly for you all to handle that part. You contribute the manpower and earn some points. It’s quite fair,” w.a.n.g Teng chimed in before anyone else had a chance to speak.
To him, weren’t a big deal, anyway. He was getting the lion’s share of the profits and there were no losses.
The extra time saved could be used for his cultivation, a luxury others didn’t have.
Also, he did this to bind these people together, forming his Mutual Help a.s.sociation. The favors given now would likely be repaid in the future.
“I think Yue Qiqiao’s suggestion is valid. We should contribute some points,” Timothy rubbed his chin thoughtfully, “Not a lot, but at least it shows our effort.”
“I agree!” Ji Haochen replied without any hesitation.
“I agree too!” Leng Qianxue nodded calmly and was the third to express her opinion.
The others expressed their stance. No one objected.
They were well aware that putting in a few points now could lead to earning more points later. There was no loss for them.
w.a.n.g Teng didn’t expect everyone to agree. No one showed any hesitation. he was quite surprised.
“Since everyone has agreed, let’s go with that then, shall we?” Yue Qiqiao looked at w.a.n.g Teng and smiled.
“Seriously.” w.a.n.g Teng was caught between laughter and tears.
“w.a.n.g Teng, have you ever thought about this? Right now, everyone here is someone you know, so you might not mind. But what about in the future? As more and more people join, are they all just going to come in and get benefits for free? There are no such good deals in the world,” Yue Qiqiao said sternly.
“Sister Yue is right. Boss, I agree with Sister Yue.” Wade raised his hand. “There needs to be effort before there can be gain. That way, we won’t have any freeloaders.”
“We need to come up with more detailed rules moving forward to prevent others from taking advantage of us,” Yue Qiqiao said.
“Alright, you’ve said it all. I think I can just sit back and relax.” w.a.n.g Teng shrugged and smiled.
“You’re acting all innocent after benefiting from it.” Yue Qiqiao rolled her eyes.
As soon as she finished speaking, she noticed everyone looking at her with strange expressions.
