114 Chapter 113: The true Ruler! (2/2)
Pu!
Seeing that total amount of credit points, both the lady employee and Shen Lu choked on the spot.
700,000 credit points?!
What an absurd amount of money!!!
Swerving his head to look at Duan Li besides him emotionally, Shen Lu almost shed his manly tears out of the sheer emotions that was bubbling in his heart!
To think that I've sworn an oath of loyalty with someone so rich!
Hais!
This must be the result from my accumulation of good karma that I've been diligently living out in my many previous life before..
The Heavens were truly not blind to one's good deed!
Meanwhile, the lady employee was equally elated as well, for she just managed to hit the jackpot!
With this, her entire future was set on course. This was because she would definitely earn the Managing Director's personal recognition of her effort in procuring such a priceless client!
”Tell me, how much are you planning to deposit in high quality spirit stones worth? 2 million? 5 million?” Liu Sheng Juan asked.
To him, this was something that was absolutely a first time experience, even for someone like him. A student of the academy with such an amount of questionable wealth, the only answer as to how the other party could possess this colossal fortune was most definitely because the other party encountered a sort of a treasure tomb of epic proportions somewhere!
After all, the student in front of him was just a meager being at the pinnacle stage of the Foundation establishment realm.
Truly not worth a mention at all.
Therefore, a small existence as such would not have the capability to procure such a fortune in any other way.
Cupping his chin, Duan Li thought for a moment.
”Well.. I'm not really good in arithmetic so I'm not really sure of how much these would amount to.. but just have a look first.”
Huala!
With a wave of his hand, the entire room was filled with a thick presence of spiritual Qi to the point that they materialized to form a liquid river of spiritual Qi floating in the air!
BOOM!!
At this moment, Liu Sheng Juan, Shen Lu and the lady employee found their entire minds to burst forth like a broken dam as they fell into a daze looking at those mythical spirit stones that surrounded them.
”T-This.. everything here are.. Superior quality spirit stones!” Liu Sheng Juan said in disbelief.
This was the first time he had ever witnessed someone took out such an impressive amount of Superior quality spirit stones from a seemingly an ordinary stash.
He casted a quick glance towards that spatial ring on Duan Li's ring finger.
”The saying of not judging something from its appearance has just been displayed to me to its fullest glory right now.” he said inwardly while subconsciously clenching his hand into a fist in agitation.
Even for someone like him that has always maintained a calm state through everything else, at this moment, he could not help but to feel his entire mental state has been rattled by the sight before him.
With these amount of spirit stones and its total worth, Duan Li could practically buy the whole Jiu Empire himself and would still have some spare changes to last him a few generation!
With a swift gaze, Liu Sheng Juan made a quick mental calculation.
There must be at least more than a hundred Superior Quality spirit stones here to induce such an effect to the surrounding spiritual Qi into a floating river like this!
However, at this moment, he could not help but to sighed out.
”This.. this is no longer beyond my ability nor my authority to accept such a colossal amount of deposit. I'm afraid that we had to meet the Emperor himself for this..” Liu Sheng Juan said as he shook his head.
In theory, exchanging spirit stones to credit points was a concept similar to mortgaging a part of the Empire in order to obtain the funds to accelerate the numerous economic activity and development happening within the Empire.
This was why black-gold master card holders could possess a certain influence sphere within the Jiu Empire.
If Liu Sheng Juan were to accept Duan Li's immense wealth right now and exchange it to credit points, he would basically have to mortgage the entirety of the Jiu Empire and its assets to Duan Li!
Naturally, this was impossible to be done as only the Emperor himself could decide for something of this scale.
As a businessman, he was willing to accept it. But, as a subject of the Empire, there was no way he would dare to cross the Emperor!
There was a saying that a man's true worth is not judged with his appearance, wealth, power and influence, but their loyalty to a cause.
And in his case, Liu Sheng Juan had made an oath of fealty to the Emperor back then by using both his name and ancestors to the Heavens.
Only fools would dare to reneged their oath that was already witnessed by the Heavens!
Since he was already out of the picture, he could only hoped that the Emperor would make a wise decision on this.
With such an amount of wealth, if the Emperor was willing to mortgage the whole Jiu Empire to Duan Li, the numerous development plans that they had prepared for the future could be enacted even earlier!
This means that the Empire would be able to enter the state of golden age - a total overhaul increment that could accelerate development progress by leaps and bounds, possibly by more than a decade!
The trade-off for this golden age to happen however, was that since the Emperor was the ruler of the entire Jiu Empire and Duan Li was the owner of the Empire himself, this would basically means that Duan Li was above the Emperor himself in terms of status!
Such a situation has no precedence in the entire history of the Tian continent before!
Gulp!
”I.. I would have to meet the Emperor?” Duan Li said as he swallowed his saliva.
He had not imagined that things would escalate as such.
