"Yes, I am free to spend the money as I like but the high power of my family will send someone to question where the money is spent." Focker said, "If I can't come up with a reasonable explanation, I will be severely punished by my family! Most importantly, my family will look into the matter and will find out very quickly that it was you!"
Chen Xiaobei nodded and said, "Things happened too quickly, I didn't manage to come up with a solution. Do you have any ideas?"
"I do have one, but…" Focker wavered.
"It's alright. Just say what you have in mind."
"It's like this. My family have very strict assessment of every single investment we make." Focker explained, "That means that they will evaluate whether of not the investment I make is profitable. If it is, then they will not question any further!"
"From your tone of voice, I gather that acquiring both Lan and Yap organizations is not profitable?" Chen Xiaobei asked.
"Right. It's not!" Focker shook his head. "The eldest son of my family is in charge of handling businesses in China. I have never intervened. I spent such a large amount of money without so much as asking them. They will be very suspicious!"
"Mm… go ahead and tell me your idea." Said Chen Xiaobei.
"My family members are not dumb. They are not easily fooled. The only way to go about this is for you to give me a Spiritual Item!" Focker proceeded to elucidate, "To my family, it is very profitable to invest in a Spiritual Item! No matter the cost, my family will not question me but congratulate me for being able to acquire a Spiritual Item!"
"Oh, is that so?"
Chen Xiaobei raised his brows.
The Fockers were really such an unusual family. Chen Xiaobei was surprised that they had such a hidden rule. However, it was not that surprising. To them, money was merely a string of numbers, a pile of waste paper. If need be, they could even print their own money!
But Spiritual Item was different. They were limited and their availability even rarer!
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtTo the Rothschild, exchanging money for a Spiritual Item was advantageous because the return would be lucrative!
"If it's too troublesome, I will think of another way…"
Focker quickly responded. He understood the value of the Spiritual Item.
"No, it's not." Chen Xiaobei shrugged and said, "I will give you a Spiritual Item first thing in the morning tomorrow. If that's not good enough, I can even give you two!"
"Are… you serious…"
Focker could not believe what he had just heard.
Spiritual Items were so rare.
How was it that Chen Xiaobei talked about it as if it were a common commodity like Chinese cabbage? Giving them away as he liked.
"Of course, I'm serious. It's not mine anyway. So it doesn't make a difference to me."
Chen Xiaobei grinned.
Focker wore a look of complete confusion. How could he give them away if they were not his?
Chen Xiaobei did not stay to explain. Once he saw that there was no one around, he stepped onto the Somersault Cloud and rushed to Dragon city.
......
Bei Xuan Faction.
Chen Xiaobei removed the lid of Green Jade Cauldron and the ten Heavenly Dog Biscuit were all done. The only changes he had made to the biscuits were their shapes. Xiao Tianquan's biscuits had been shaped into a bone whereas the ten biscuits he had just made were shaped into a pill!
Chen Xiaobei collected the ten biscuits and headed to the woodshed.
In the woodshed.
Tanaka Tsuyoshi was still knocked out.
And the grand leader Gordon was still bound, his energy completely drained by the rope. He could not even lift a finger. When he saw Chen Xiaobei, Gordon called out pitifully, like a pug, "Mr. Chen! Mr. Chen! You're finally back… I beg you! Please have mercy on me… If you let me live, I will be your slave and serve you forever! I am willing to follow you like a dog, be loyal to you until the day I die!"
"Hehe… since you are begging to become my dog, I will give you a chance!"
Chen Xiaobei bent down and grinned. "Open your mouth!"
"What… What are you doing?" Gordon asked nervously.
"Didn't you say you'll be loyal to me till the day you die? If you're not obedient now, how could I expect you to stay loyal to me if I let you go?" Chen Xiaobei retorted.
"You… You want to let me go?"
Gordon's eyes lit up at that thought.
His strength had been drained. If Chen Xiaobei had wanted him dead, all he had to do was give him a slap. Why would he be beating around the bush?
If Chen Xiaobei was not going to kill him, then Gordon would not have to worry about opening his mouth, right?
At the thought of that, Gordon had his mouth wide opened and said, "Mr. Chen, I will do everything you ask! Look at how loyal I am… Oh…"
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmBefore the idiot could finish talking, Chen Xiaobei shoved a piece of Heavenly Dog Biscuit into Gordon's mouth.
Gulp…
Before Gordon could react, the biscuit had already made its way down his throat. Gordon was alarmed. "What… What was that? Mr. Chen, did you just poison me? I don't want to die… I don't want to die…"
"Huh? Why are you still so energetic? Did I make a mistake? It was Chen Xiaobei's turn to panic, "F*ck! I only have a few days before I will be attacking the Zhuangs! I also need the biscuit for Japan! Shit! If I concocted it wrongly, I am doomed!"
Cackle.
Suddenly, Gordon's stopped talking. His gaze fell and he started to ask questions in a robotic tone.
"Master! Are you my master?"
"Yes! It worked! It gave me a fright!" Chen Xiaobei was giddy with delight. "Yes! I am your master! From today onwards, you are Chen Xiaobei's dog!"
"Yes, Master!"
Gordon nodded stiffly. The spirit in his eyes had returned. When he looked at Chen Xiaobei, they were filled with sincere faith and devotion!
"Yes! It worked! Let's experiment again with this other white mouse!" Chen Xiaobei lifted Tanaka Tsuyoshi, and fed him the biscuit and a bottle of Hundred Herb Potion.
Tanaka Tsuyoshi quickly regained consciousness and immediately recognized Chen Xiaobei as his master. Another loyal dog!
"It worked! My Heavenly Dog Biscuit is effective!" Chen Xiaobei was over the moon, "One of them is an elite with True Nirvana cultivation and another one is an elite with Celestial cultivation! We'll see who dares enter Bei Xuan with these two dogs guarding! Ahaha!"
Xiaobei left the woodshed, and immediately ordered Zhao Ritian to release Gordon and Tanaka Tsuyoshi.
After that, he hurried to the Zhuang household!
Since the experiment worked, Chen Xiaobei must personally send the lovely dog biscuits he had so carefully made to his enemy!
Good things must be shared!
Ahaha!
