Hong Dali really had a lot of businesses now.

The bigger ones included property, restaurants, clothing factories, s.p.a.cecraft manufacturers, etc. The smaller ones included convenience stores and small trades. He had a huge variety of businesses.

"Dali, which ones do we go to first?" Tang Muxin excitedly said, "Speaking of which, it"s rare that you are willingly visiting your businesses."

It was a great thing for Dali to inspect his businesses. Jiang Qianxue was shocked to see him so hardworking. "Dali, it"s rare to see you so serious. Hm, do you need my help in any of your businesses?"

She was a Galaxy Aristocrat. It was not difficult for her to support a medium-sized business.

"Ah, there"s no need. I just wanted to help everyone change their gear." Hong Dali smiled and snapped his fingers. "Let"s go! We"ll head to my gem processing factory first! Let"s get everyone changed into some better gems today. Hm, right, you should take off all the gear you"re wearing now. We"ll sell the ones we don"t need at the Sauron Auction Center. Let"s each get a new set of clothes!"

Hm, usually people would not even throw a single piece of equipment away even if it was fully worn out. Hong Dali was different. He would change equipment by the whole set without even blinking…

Hence, everyone proceeded to purchase their new gear. They were all smiles along the way and changed into basic, unmodified equipment.

They just won 200 million dollars. They were rich, capricious, and ready to spend. They could buy whatever they wanted!

Soon, they were done. Hong Dali looked at the refreshed lackeys, as well as Tang Muxin, Li Nianwei, and Jiang Qianxue. He was very satisfied. "Hm, that"s good. Beautiful, elegant, not bad at all!"

Why else would they say that "you are what you wear"? Tang Muxin chose a full-white soft armor. She looked handsome and cool, like a girl in military training. Of course, she would look even more impressive once the gems were embedded…

Li Nianwei still went with the s.e.xy look. She chose a purple leather suit. She would never be shy about showcasing her perfect body when with the Young Master.

Jiang Qianxue was more reserved. She did not need the fancy distractions. She was covered in steel plates and held a book in her hands. She had the looks of a holy knight.

They left once they purchased all their equipment. Fifteen George Barton heavy armored s.p.a.cecrafts lined up neatly in the sky. They headed straight for the gem processing factory that some random Honorary Aristocrat sold to Hong Dali.

As for why Hong Dali forgot that guy"s name, Big Bro Dali said that they"re all small fries and not worth his memory.

That"s the way he squandered. There"s nothing anyone could do about it.

They soon arrived at the gem processing factory. Hong Dali headed straight for the largest warehouse. Once there, Li Yang quickly brought a sofa over. Once Hong Dali took his seat, Li Yang looked at the workers politely standing in front of them and said loudly, "Listen up! This is our Young Master, who will be your new boss! He"s a standard Honorary Aristocrat, a Double Honorary Aristocrat, Orange-level! Whatever our Young Master tells you to do later, you will do it. Understood?!"


"Understood!" The workers were terrified when they felt the aura of the legendary Young Master. They did not even dare to breathe too hard.

"Hm, not bad." Hong Dali comfortably leaned against the sofa. He counted the number of people there. "We"ll go one-by-one. Everyone come and collect your reward of 10,000 dollars. Once you take the money, get to work."

This boss is amazing! He gives us money the moment he meets us!

The workers were instantly convinced. "Boss, you will be our guiding light from now on. We will do whatever you ask of us. We won"t have any second thoughts!"

"That"s right, no second thoughts. Boss, whatever you say will be treated as the imperial decree. If you ask us to head East, none of us will head West!"

"Alright, not bad." Hong Dali was satisfied. "That"s the effect I was looking for. Next, gather all the attribute +10 embedding gems and bring them to me. I need to use them."

Attribute +10 embedding gems!

The workers looked at one another in bewilderment. Soon, one of the managers stepped forward. He bowed politely to the new boss, then said, "Boss, we currently have 583 attribute +10 gems. 216 of them are for Strength attribute points. 184 of them are for Agility attribute points. 138 of them are for Reflexes attribute points."

"Yo, you know your stuff. Not bad." Hong Dali nodded, satisfied. "Reward him another 10,000."

"Thank you, boss!" The manager was deeply grateful. "Then, I"ll ask them to bring all the stones over now?"

"Yep. Bring them all. Hurry up."

Efficiency always increased when incentives were present. The workers rushed around. Within five minutes, all 538 attribute +10 gems were brought over.

Hehe, those are the things I"m looking for.

Once all the stones were carried over, Hong Dali nonchalantly waved his hands. "Alright, you can take your leave first. Don"t come and bother me no matter what happens. Understood?"

"Understood!" Everyone roared. The place was empty in the blink of an eye.

"Hehe, good. Things will be much easier with all these." Hong Dali smiled and said, "Everyone, remove all the gems from your previous equipment. Then, you can leave too."

Hong Dali"s words were like the imperial decree. Everyone hurriedly removed their gems. Once they handed everything over, they were chased out by Hong Dali. Even Jiang Qianxue, who wanted to stay around and watch. This made her deeply upset. She mumbled, "So mysterious. What is he doing."

Although she said that, she still left.

Soon, only Hong Dali remained in the entire warehouse.

His purpose in coming here today was simple—it was time to upgrade the lackeys" equipment!

His own attributes were permanently set at 100. Although he was still losing Health attribute points every day, the frequency was much lower now. It was crucial to strengthen the people around him.

Hong Dali pulled out the System gem combination interface. He directly dropped in one Strength +15 and one Agility +15 stone. Hong Dali smiled. "Combine!"

With a "ding" sound, the two gemstones combined together. The red Strength gem and the green Agility gem combined to form a Strength +13, Agility+13 double attribute super-rare gemstone!

His skills were still elementary. Each attribute would lose two points after the combination. If he could upgrade the skill in the future, he might only lose one point per attribute at the next level or even zero points at the level after that. Of course, the option to add money to raise the attribute points was definitely possible too!

"Hehehe, this is not bad at all." Hong Dali was deeply satisfied with the results. "Previously, the better stones are those full sets with +14 attribute points. The best ones allowed +15 attribute points for half-body sets. Now, a double attribute +13 gem can be used on the half-body sets, and a double attribute point +8 trash gem can be used on the other half-body sets. With my halo effect on top of that…"

Although it was a pity that the super-rare gems could not be used on the whole body, Hong Dali was still pretty happy.

The previous equipment he gave everyone only had single attribute gems. The best of which only provided +14 or +15 attribute points. This time was different. The worst ones could still provide +16 attribute points! Sixteen attribute points! Think about it, in the past, they could have twenty gems with +14 attribute points at most. Those combined with the halo effect would result in +560 attribute points.

This time? One piece was worth +16 attribute points. Twenty of those on one armor amounted to +320 attribute points. With the halo effect, it would be +640 attribute points. There was a difference of 80 attribute points! This calculation was done based on the worst double attribute +8 gems. If the half-body double attribute +11 and above super-rare gems were counted, the difference would easily be over 100 attribute points!

We can feed Li Yang some Azure Root Bones-Forging Gra.s.s, hehehe. All attributes +150, which is +300 with the halo, add the basic attribute points on top of that, let me calculate…

Hong Dali started counting on his fingers. He was completely stunned when he finished his calculations!

He took the equipment and halo as +750 attribute points. The basic attribute points were a.s.sumed to be 90 each, which would be 180 with the halo. The Azure Root Bones-Forging Gra.s.s added on 50 points to each attribute, which would be 300 points overall. If everything was added together, the total sum would be 1,230 attribute points!

Hong Dali still underestimated the situation—after all, he did not factor in the training portion.

Previously, at the Tower of Trials, Li Yang and the rest trained with the martial arts brought out by Lucifer. The lackeys had basic attributes over 150. Li Yang was the highest, his Strength was 192, Agility was 184, Reflexes was 177. Overall, when combined with his equipment and the halo, he easily exceeded 500 attribute points. How else could he train with the Secrets of Dark Energy?

Now that the equipment attributes were raised to another level… not everyone could be a lackey!

Hong Dali grew happier as he calculated, the speed of combination increased and the happier he was. In less than a day, he had spent all 200 million of the prize money he won from the Galaxy Super Mecha Wars…

After all, one set of equipment had twenty gem slots. The nine lackeys together required 180 gems. Tang Muxin, Li Nianwei, and Lucifer had no need for this yet. Only Jiang Qianxue needed twenty more. Therefore, exactly 200 gems were required altogether.

It cost one million dollars to combine one gem. 200 gems would cost exactly 200 million Galaxy Dollars…

"There"s not enough money to spend like that." Hong Dali was deeply unsatisfied. "Looks like we"re still a little short… hm, whatever, we have so many trash gems left. We"ll combine a few dozens and sell them off at the Sauron Auction Center!"

Hence, the combining process continued.

Hong Dali managed to combine another forty double attribute +8 trash gems. He was only left with ten million dollars in cash. Hong Dali was satisfied with the results. "Not bad, these things should sell for quite a bit. Speaking of which, I really need to thank the guy who sold me this factory. Haha, it won"t be so easy for me to upgrade everyone"s equipment otherwise!"
