His pupils slightly contracted, the corners of his mouth twitched, and a moment of shock flashed in his eyes.
But he quickly gathered himself, and a fleeting expression of hesitation appeared on his face, "Ren, are you serious?"
Ren Zhong knew he already understood and just nodded heavily, "Of course."
Wang Zhaofu thought for a few seconds, sighed, "Alright, I promise you."
"Ren, sigh, I really treat you as a brother through life and death. I don’t even know how to persuade you."
"I have my reasons. It’s good that you understand. By the way, in the next few days, Brother Wang, you can start networking with some suppliers of Fourth Level exoskeleton special components, lay out some connections in advance. When I return to Starfire Town, I need you to help me with a big deal."
Back to business, Wang Zhaofu got interested, "How big?"
Ren Zhong said slowly, "I want to upgrade my Third Level exoskeleton to perform better than a Fourth Level exoskeleton, and I also want to manage it perfectly with Third Level parameters."
Wang Zhaofu took a deep breath, "Phew! Then the cost... how much is your budget?"
Ren Zhong lowered his voice, "More than two million."
Wang Zhaofu calculated for a while, "Since you have special requirements, it’s a bit tight, but it’s not hopeless."
Ren Zhong nodded, "Do your best and let fate decide."
"Alright. Wow! You’re planning to make us rich! This thank you..."
Ren Zhong waved his hand, "It’s not about thanks. Earlier, I didn’t mention that matter, but Brother Wang, you still agreed to help me, right? The reason I mentioned the two matters in reverse order is because I also see you as a true brother."
Wang Zhaofu was stunned for a moment but felt a bit emotional inside, his mustache trembling, his chubby face smiling, "You’re something else, young man. I’m just a merchant who only knows how to make money, I can’t figure out why you trust me so much."
Ren Zhong laughed heartily, "Maybe it’s fate! Anyway, from now on, our two brothers are genuinely in the same boat. In the future, if Brother Wang, you encounter trouble, I’ll risk my life to save you."
As long as this deal is successfully completed, Wang Zhaofu’s value to Ren Zhong could rival that of Sun Miao and Ju Qingmeng.
Ren Zhong would cherish this friendship that was born out of interest but now gradually surpassed interest.
If Ren Zhong was determined to protect Fatty Wang, the only thing that could kill him would be the blade of time.
Wang Zhaofu didn’t understand the invaluable promise Ren Zhong made, he just nodded heavily, "You’re too kind, Ren. Hmm. If there’s nothing else, I’ll be off?"
"Sure, take care, Brother Wang."
"Ren, you take care too, I’ll wait for your triumphant return."
After seeing Wang Zhaofu’s armed escort vehicle speeding away towards Starfire Town, Ren Zhong got up and left the rooftop café.
He clenched his fist slightly.
Next, it’s up to Brother Sun.
Then, Ren Zhong went to the first floor of the Pyramid and rode his floating motorcycle into the mechanic group.
He wanted to upgrade his floating motorcycle, doubling its performance based on its current state.
This wasn’t equipment maintenance related to mining work, he had to pay out of his own pocket.
He played the role of a nouveau riche, waved his hand, and spent 30,000 credits, asking the mechanic group at the center station to go all out on it.
Don’t pity my wallet, folks, I’ve got money now, and I’m playing it bold.
The citizen employees of the mechanic group silently ridiculed Ren Zhong as a foolish bumpkin and nouveau riche for losing his sense of direction after getting a windfall, while happily accepting the job.
Who doesn’t love making money?
While watching the mechanic group busy with the explosive modification of the floating motorcycle, Ren Zhong used his wrist watch to secretly send a message to Mayor Ma Dafu, "Mayor Ma, I have a request. It’s very important."
"Mr. Ren, please continue."
After reading all of Ren Zhong’s messages.
Ma Dafu replied, "Yang Bingzhong is very sensitive right now. This would prematurely escalate the conflict between him and me, and could also lead to Starfire Resources relocating even sooner. You’re playing too big; I don’t agree. If you won’t reveal all of your plans, I can’t understand what you’re trying to do, you haven’t given me enough reason to convince me."
Ren Zhong: "After Yang Bingzhong leaves, our people will seize the opportunity to move into Starfire Town and establish a resource recycling company to replace him. The chaos you worry about naturally won’t occur. We will send a Level Five Professional to Starfire Town to become a temporary outsider. This person is very strong, far beyond what you could imagine, Mayor Ma; he can defeat a Level Five Professional in the general survey assessment. As long as we survive this crisis, regardless of the Association’s intentions, they will have to adhere to basic rules, and we can at least secure another year for Starfire Town."
Ma Dafu: "What about the Descending Demon Baby? Who can deal with it? Before it completes its advancement, a Level Five Professional won’t be drawn out, and a Fourth Level Professional can’t possibly handle it. Although once it completes its advancement, more elite hunters will be ordered by the upper echelons to come and eliminate it, with a chance to destroy it. But the people in town, possibly including myself, may already be dead by then."
Ren Zhong: "Mayor Ma, you know Sun Miao’s previous position in Mengdu Group, right?"
"Sun Miao has a certain drug. An ordinary person using that drug could desperately fight a Second Level Mechanical Warrior."
"In necessary times, someone will step forward and sacrifice themselves. Essentially, we are the same kind of people as you, Mayor Ma."
This business deal was also concluded.
A full-scale hunt against Lin Wang and others, Ren Zhong’s first fully proactive and fierce assault on this world prison, has fully begun.
