Zhou Xiruo and Lin Xiang looked at Wang Xiao with their mouths agape. Their first reaction was that they had misheard.
Wang Xiao did not explain even after seeing their faces. He directly connected to the territory and took out a [Contract]. He scribbled down the content. The general idea was to pay 30 million star coins as a deposit first. After the rest of the goods and resources arrived, they would be settled with equivalent amounts of [Black Gold Ore] within three days.
After writing the content, Wang Xiao directly stamped his lord mark. As long as Lin Xiang left another mark, this [Contract] would officially take effect.
“Brother Wang… are you really crazy?”
Looking at the contract, Lin Xiang didn’t know whether to laugh or cry. “Do you know how severe the punishment will be if you can’t fulfill the contract?”
“I know.”
Wang Xiao nodded. After raising his hand to stop Zhou Xiruo, who was about to speak, he looked into Lin Xiang’s eyes and said seriously, “Since I took out this contract, I have enough confidence. The question now is, do you believe me?”
Lin Xiang’s face was filled with hesitation. Since Wang Xiao had already signed the [Contract], he would definitely do his best to complete the contents of the [Contract].
However, this was a business worth more than 100 billion. Once Wang Xiao broke his promise, even if he suffered a backlash and died without an intact corpse, he still wouldn’t be able to get the rest of the money. At that time, the headquarters would definitely blame this 100 billion on Lin Xiang!
Lin Xiang was 33 years old this year. With his annual salary of nearly 10 million, if he started taking care of his health today and worked hard to live to 10,000 years old without eating, drinking, or spending money, he should be able to settle this score.
However, Lin Xiang knew that he couldn’t live to 10,000 years old, so he naturally couldn’t afford to pay the price.
However, when he saw Wang Xiao’s determined gaze and recalled the few deals they had made previously, Lin Xiang suddenly became hot-headed and directly left his lord mark on the contract.
Clang!
With a soft sound, the [Contract] turned into white light and split into two. It crashed into Wang Xiao and Lin Xiang’s glabella and disappeared.
This scene meant that the [Contract] had been successfully signed. Zhou Xiruo, who was beside him, could not remain calm at that time!
“Wang Xiao! Are you crazy?!
Zhou Xiruo frowned and scolded anxiously, “10,000 units of [Black Gold Ore], how can we gather so much! Do you know how serious the consequences will be if we break our promise?!”
“Don’t worry, I know what I’m doing.”
Wang Xiao smiled at Zhou Xiruo, then looked at Lin Xiang and said seriously, “Manager Lin, thank you very much for your trust!”
“To be honest, I’m a little regretful now.”
Lin Xiang was on the brink of tears. Then, he suddenly thought of something. “That’s right! I signed this contract with you. I’ll try my best to facilitate this transaction, but if the headquarters doesn’t agree, I have no choice.”
“Understood.”
Wang Xiao nodded in understanding. Then, he opened the interface and transferred 30 million star coins to Lin Xiang. “I’ll have to trouble Manager Lin to do your best. If you really can’t do it, we won’t force you. We can negotiate and cancel the contract.”
Hearing that Wang Xiao was willing to cancel the contract, Lin Xiang heaved a sigh of relief. “Brother Wang, don’t worry. If we can complete this deal, my transfer back to the headquarters will be just around the corner, so I will definitely do my best.”
Pausing for a moment, Lin Xiang continued, “There’s no time to lose. I’ll go to the headquarters to discuss it now, and I’ll give you a reply by tomorrow night at the latest. How about that?”
Wang Xiao looked out of the window. The sky was already bright after all the fuss. He would get an answer in another two days and one night. Although it was not a short time, it was already considered very fast for such a big business.
“Alright, then I’ll leave it to you, Manager Lin!”
Wang Xiao nodded in the end, and Lin Xiang did not dawdle any longer. He excused himself, got up, and walked toward the [Ancient Teleportation Portal] on the top floor.
Wang Xiao stood up and stretched. He looked at Zhou Xiruo and smiled easily.
“You must be tired from the night, right? Let’s go back and rest first?” “Rest? You still have the mood to rest now?”
Zhou Xiruo looked at Wang Xiao in surprise. “It’s 10,000 units of Black Gold Ore! Why don’t you hurry to the secret realm? You still want to rest? Why don’t you know how to be anxious?”
“The deal hasn’t been confirmed!”
Wang Xiao chuckled indifferently. “It won’t be too late to be anxious after the Lord’s Shop agrees to the deal!”
“You…”
Zhou Xiruo was extremely anxious and did not know what to say. Looking at the heartless Wang Xiao, she simply wanted to strangle him to death!
Before Zhou Xiruo could think of anything to say, Wang Xiao had already left the office.
Seeing this, Zhou Xiruo could only follow. However, she did not expect Wang Xiao to walk so quickly. When she chased after him out of the Lord’s Shop, Wang Xiao was already gone!
“Why is he gone again?”
Zhou Xiruo frowned. She suddenly remembered the time when Wang Xiao went missing, and a wave of panic surged in her heart for no reason.
“Wang… Mmm!”
The anxious Zhou Xiruo wanted to shout, but just as she opened her mouth, someone covered her mouth and dragged her into an alley!
The sudden situation shocked Zhou Xiruo. Just as she was about to struggle, she heard a familiar voice behind her say, “Don’t be afraid, it’s me.”
“Wang Xiao?”
Zhou Xiruo recognized the voice. When she turned around and saw Wang Xiao’s face, anger surged in her heart. She punched Wang Xiao and said angrily, “What are you doing?! Don’t you know that this is very scary?!”
“Sorry, it’s an emergency.”
Wang Xiao did not react to the punch. He frowned slightly and raised his chin. “Doesn’t that person look a little familiar?”
“Familiar?”
Zhou Xiruo was stunned. She looked in the direction Wang Xiao was pointing, but the sky was just beginning to light up. Even the brokers who were looking at the cracks everywhere had not come out, so she only saw an empty street.
As if he had guessed that Zhou Xiruo would not notice, Wang Xiao continued without waiting for her to ask, “To the left, from the third alley, behind that big tree.”
“Behind the tree…”
Zhou Xiruo narrowed her eyes and looked carefully according to Wang Xiao’s instructions. Sure enough, she saw a blurry human figure behind the tree.
However, the distance was too far, and the sky was dark. With Zhou Xiruo’s eyesight, she could only see a silhouette.
“It’s too far. I can’t see clearly at all.”
Zhou Xiruo lowered her voice and whispered, “Why don’t you just say who you saw?”
“I’m not so sure…”
Wang Xiao spoke hesitantly, but his voice was filled with seriousness. “That person seems to be Lan Dahai.”
“Lan Dahai? The hidden Purple Star lord?”
Zhou Xiruo’s expression changed when she heard this name, but she immediately frowned. “But didn’t Adjutant Qi say that he had already sent people to capture him?”
“That’s why I don’t dare to—”
Before he could say “confirm”, the figure behind the tree suddenly walked out.
The wide cloak almost covered his entire body, but the moment the brim of his hat was lifted by the wind, Wang Xiao still saw it clearly.. That person was indeed Lan Dahai, who was lurking on the Blue Planet!
