Volume 3 Chapter 87 Taking advantage of the fire to rob
The person in charge of finance was a very young man. His powers may be useless in battle, but when it comes to financial matters, it was like G.o.dly help.
His abilities can be summed up in one word Unforgotten. In fact it was the type where he can see ten lines in one glance. There were three people in the Jiangcheng Finance Department. One was responsible for record keeping, one was responsible for miscellaneous items, and the other was for managing everything.
Moreover, he belongs to the Tan family and can be considered as Shao Qing’s nephew.
“Qing Jie.” As soon as Tan Yezi came in, he called her with a sweet tone. He had said before calling Shao Qing his aunt was too much since she didn’t look like an aunt at all. It would make more sense for him to call her sister.
Shao Qing just allowed him to do whatever.
“Someone will come over to do business in a while, I will leave it to you and Mulin. Mulin will support you. Make sure the asking price is high, we don’t have to give them any face.” Shao Qing sneered before saying.
Although she had cooperated, she was unhappy. Weren’t they so tough at the time? If they have the ability to continue to be hard-hearted and waste her mouth talking, then don’t blame her for being impolite and trying to earn more money.
“Okay Qing Jie! Leave this to me, I guarantee you will be satisfied!” Tan Yezi slapped his chest. When he was in the Tan family, he was responsible for the business part. It’s said that all businessmen are evil and he is very treacherous in this respect.
After dealing with the matter, Shao Qing was a.s.sured to deal with other things. The Qin family and the Tan family had brought countless talents. Today, most of the operations of Jiangcheng relied on the Qin family and the Tan family.
This time when Xiao Baozi was injured, the two elders had the biggest reaction. The two elders were so angry that they were ready to give chase. Fortunately, they were intercepted by Gu Chuan.
After arranging the outside affairs, Shao Qing continued to accompany Xiao Baozi. The two old men would also often come to see him. Xiao Baozi’s current situation has stabilized a little bit, but it is still not good. Seeing this, the two old men felt distressed.
Yan Qiyue and Yin Ye researched for a long time. Finally, they found that there was indeed a way to channel the energy in Xiao Baozi and guide it to other people’s bodies. First, it would save Xiao Baozi. Secondly, it can also increase the strength of others. It was simply killing two birds with one stone, turning bad things into good things.
But here comes the problem. The bodies of ordinary people can’t stand such violent energy. Xiao Baozi was fine because his physique was different, but the bodies of ordinary people with superhuman powers can’t handle it.
Either a zombie such as Er Dai or Shao Qing with a strength above rank 5, or someone with a power system like Gu Panpan, whose body strength can be comparable to that of a zombie.
Even if it was Gu Panpan, she was still on the edge. After all, Gu Panpan did not have a recovery ability as strong as a zombie.
In this way, many people would not be able to partic.i.p.ate. Shao Qing convened with her small group and held a small meeting with the high-ranking people to choose some people to help.
Mulin asked Yan Qiyue directly: “Is there a way for Ah Qing to receive the energy transmission first, then if her body is saturated, let others try?”
Yan Qiyue nodded, “That should work.”
“Then we’ll let Ah Qing go first. To put it bluntly, if the strength is spread out, maybe it would be as useful as the block crystal core. If Ah Qing is allowed to absorb the energy, maybe she can rise to rank 8. ”
Shao Qing shook her head: “Let’s have everyone share it, so we can all progress a bit. How can you always just focus on me?”
For Yan Qiyue and the others, as Shao Qing’s family members, it was really hard to bring up. Thus, Tan Xiao immediately said: “I also think that Sister Mulin is right. Aunt, please think about it. We are from Jiangcheng. The average strength is really high. What you need to do is become the top pinnacle master. If your strength is high, that is good for Jiangcheng’s reputation. It is best to rise to rank 8. You will probably be the first person in the country to rise to such a rank. This could be like a signboard to deter others.”
Other people also agreed. This was right. When the power is distributed, everyone will increase a little, but it is of no use at all. It is better to acc.u.mulate it on one person and create a direct threat to other bases.
You guys think you’re overbearing? Our boss alone can destroy one of your bases!
This would make people scared to mess with them.
Shao Qing was helpless: “Is it really good for you to do this?”
“There is nothing wrong with it. To put it in an ugly way, this thing was originally yours. Logically speaking, other people don’t have the right to get a portion. You asking us for our opinion is already enough respect.” Mulin patted the table, then said: “You go first. If you can’t hold it, we will call Er Dai, then look for Yin Ye and them. It is best if you can handle it alone.”
Everyone agreed, so Shao Qing had no choice but to say: “I solicited your opinions. Don’t talk about me being dictatorial then.”
“Hurry up, baby can’t wait.” Mulin pushed her out directly.
Shao Qing had to make preparations. When she entered, Xiao Baozi was already asleep and was sleep talking in bed. Shao Qing had to wake him up to start.
Dissolving the energy was not as simple as imagined. After all, those energies were too violent. If she was not careful, she may injure Xiao Baozi. Shao Qing took off her shoes and sat cross-legged on the bed, ready.
“Ah Qing, according to what I said, let Xiao Hua out first.” Yan Qiyue said, and Shao Qing released Xiao Hua. This time Xiao Hua was the main force. Xiao Hua can absorb human blood and body energy, but the latter was more troublesome.
Under the command of Yan Qiyue, Shao Qing made Xiao Hua stretch out its many tentacles and inserted them into Xiao Baozi’s body, which looked like a catheter inserted in his body.
After inserting it, Xiao Hua slowly absorbed the energy, then transported it to Shao Qing’s body after purification. Yan Qiyue had thought of this method at the beginning, but he did not dare to do it directly.
After all, that was tossing about Xiao Baozi’s body. What should they do if it breaks him by accident? This was not an experiment. If they don’t succeed once, they can’t just continue with another experiment.
There is only one Xiao Baozi, so he must be cautious. Thus, he researched for several days and only told Shao Qing after he determined that the plan was indeed feasible.
“Be careful.” Yan Qiyue was also very nervous. After all, Xiao Baozi was the lifeblood of Shao Qing and Shao Qing was his lifeblood.
When the first force was absorbed by Xiao Hua, Yan Qiyue patted her palm: “It is indeed feasible!”
“Shh…” Shao Qing put a finger in front of his lips, then started. Absorbing the power pa.s.sed by Xiao Hua, this power is very pure. Once it entered her body, it quickly flowed into the crystal core, a.s.similating into her own energy.
The energy contained in that heart was worthy of being the most suitable for absorption. After being purified, it was particularly gentle and can be easily absorbed.
Shao Qing kept absorbing the energy transmitted by Xiao Hua. Her crystal nucleus was also filled up at a speed visible to the naked eye.
The energy contained in that heart was enough to create a rank 9 superhuman. Although it was divided into two parts, with only one-half in Xiao Baozi’s body, two or three people with rank 8 abilities can be produced easily.
After all, going from the eighth to the ninth rank was nothing short of trying to reach the heavens. The energy required for the eighth rank to rise to the ninth rank was enough for several people to go from the first to the eighth rank.
As Xiao Hua continued to deliver energy, Shao Qing felt saturated. Once the crystal core began to saturate, it meant she could try to break through.
At this time, energy was still continuously being pumped into her body. This was at least to ensure that when she breaks through, she will not be on the verge of failure due to lack of energy.
Not long ago she was promoted to rank 7, then she went from elementary rank 7, to the intermediate level. Now she is jumping to try to break through rank 8.
When breaking through, Shao Qing was very calm. She blasted the inside of her crystal nucleus with energy quickly and slowly, making the s.p.a.ce inside the crystal nucleus larger and larger, to accommodate more power.
With it being so long, she has found out bit by bit, that a breakthrough was originally to allow the crystal core to hold more power, just like a memory s.p.a.ce of a mobile phone.
The memory s.p.a.ce can store more energy, and the rigidity of the body determines the running memory. A breakthrough is the test for these two points.
Even though Shao Qing had rich experience in breaking through, it took a long time to make a successful breakthrough. She breathed a sigh of relief and opened her eyes: “Call in Er Dai and Panpan.”
Yan Qiyue kept watching on the side. Upon seeing this, he said: “You can obviously absorb more. It is not a problem to reach the peak of the eighth rank.”
“Just breaking through to the eighth rank is enough. Besides, the gap with the eighth peak is actually not very big, especially for me. Rather than me going to hit the peak, it’s better to create a few more eighth rank superhumans, it would be good for the base.” Shao Qing said calmly.
After reaching the eighth rank, she had some confidence she could do it slowly.
Yan Qiyue had no choice but to call in Er Dai and Gu Panpan. Shao Qing called the two people over, then said: “You two should fight for it, try to absorb more. It will be good if you can break through to the eighth rank. Now, if Jiangcheng can have a few more eighth-rank superhumans, we will have confidence in doing things in the future.”
Er Dai and Gu Panpan sat aside honestly and were ready. Xiao Hua’s tentacles connected them like a bridge, sending energy to their bodies. After the two digested the first strand, Shao Qing relaxed, they should be able to absorb it.
At this moment, Mulin suddenly came to find Shao Qing: “Ah Qing, go out and take a look, something happened outside.”
Shao Qing frowned, glancing at Xiao Baozi. Xiao Baozi’s situation was much better now, at least those cracks are slowly healing.
This shows that the energy in his body was not enough to damage the body surface.
Shao Qing walked out with a little worry: “What’s the matter?”
“The group of people who came for the transaction wanted to use coercion. They thought that our bid was too high. This time they brought some masters over. I was afraid that I couldn’t handle it. So, I wanted to call you over first.” Mulin said helplessly.
Shao Qing didn’t know until she got there. Why did Mulin say that? This time several bases came wanting to make a deal with them. Each base came with a rank 6 or higher superhuman.
Although it was not as good as the previous Shao Qing, it was not much worse. The most important thing was that they had the numbers.
But it was really unfortunate that they had come. Shao Qing had just broken through, and now she could easily crush rank 6 superhumans, just like crushing a few small ants, completely stress-free.
After Shao Qing got to the place, she sat in the middle and crossed her legs: “I heard someone is dissatisfied with the price? If you’re dissatisfied, let’s discuss.”
Her tone made it seem like she was weak, but her action was not weak at all. Her sharp eyes made their scalp numb.
“Yes, we think this price is really inappropriate. It’s too expensive. When doing business you should be amiable to make you rich. At least give us a reasonable price.” The person in charge of one of the bases said.
“Then tell me your ideal price.” Shao Qing said lazily, the person immediately said: “Three rank 5 crystal cores for a car, it can’t be more expensive.”
The usual price was usually around ten pieces per car. Shao Qing asked Tan Yezi to be a bit harder, and Tan Yezi asked for twenty pieces. Unexpectedly, this group of people would cut them down to three pieces directly.
This was no longer doing business, this is simply robbing.
Shao Qing waved her hand expressionlessly: “Send off the guests, I won’t sell anything.”
