Chapter 931 - Hunting Operation (1/2)
As the successor of the Brutus Capital Group, Plenty’s information channels were deep. He was aware of many currents, including the World Bloc’s recent movements. Considering the enormous amount of capital they were amassing, the Century Financial Group wasn’t in for a good time.
“You inherited the Brutus Capital Group. I’m carrying out a forceful takeover of the Century Financial Group. We each came out of this getting what we wanted.” Nie Yan didn’t deny Plenty’s claim.
Plenty didn’t expect Nie Yan to admit so openly to everything. Information was vital in this kind of capital market struggle. If a third party were to find out one’s plans beforehand, they might intervene and reap all the benefits instead.
“If you’re interested, I wouldn’t mind letting you have a slice of the pie,” Nie Yan said.
“Give me some time to think about it,” Plenty replied. He still needed to deliver the final blow to Soaring Angel. However, he was unsure whether he could secure enough funds to do so. Since Nie Yan offered to cooperate, he wouldn’t feel good pulling any dirty tricks.
Nie Yan chuckled. He naturally had his own plans. If Plenty were to interfere when World Bloc took action against the Century Financial Group, it would likely ruin the hope of reaping the full potential of profits for both of them. However, if he offered to cooperate and Plenty joined his alliance, then the Century Financial Group would be even worse off while Nie Yan and Plenty would enjoy greater benefits.
“I can join in for about ¥10 billion,” Plenty said. This kind of venture had potential for massive profits. He naturally wouldn’t pass up on it.
“Let’s get in touch when the time comes,” Nie Yan said. The Century Financial Group had just suffered a massive defeat in Conviction. Now was the best opportunity to strike in real life. They could not let this opportunity slip by.
Nie Yan and Plenty chatted for a while longer before bidding each other farewell. The goal for this meeting was accomplished. For a long time to come, the Righteous Faction and Evil Faction would live together in peace.
Plenty stared at Nie Yan’s receding back and sunk into silence. If a war were to break out in the future, Nie Yan would undoubtedly be a difficult opponent. However, the likelihood of that happening was quite low. He would not declare war on Nie Yan for no good reason, and Nie Yan likely thought the same. Both sides feared the other's power.
Nie Yan returned to the guild headquarters in Okoron. All of Asskickers United was in a celebratory mood.
Within the span of several days, Asskickers United established 20 more branches. After an intense recruitment campaign and hundreds of millions of applicants, they selected 3,000,000 new members. These auxiliary guilds were tasked with managing the various strongholds.
The total number of strongholds under Asskickers United’s control already reached 500, most of which were being operated by World Bloc. The potential profits from these strongholds was beyond anything ordinary people could imagine.
Bladelight, Smoke Stub, and the others could all breathe a sigh of relief. All of them received ample rewards. With their new salaries, they would never have to worry about money again. Even those less skilled who had followed Nie Yan in his countless campaigns repeated major profits. Nie Yan distributed nearly ¥300,000,000 worth of assets and a 30% stake of all strongholds to them. With this income, they could live a pretty luxurious life in reality.
This resolved one of Nie Yan’s biggest worries. With no more threats on the horizon, they could finally enjoy the fruits of their labour.
After confirming all the strongholds were up to standards, Nie Yan told Guo Huai to pay close attention to the remnant forces of Angel Corps and the Century Financial Group.
With everything ingame taking care of, Nie Yan messaged Xie Yao.「Let’s exit out of the game.」
「Sure.」Xie Yao nodded. Nie Yan had already spoken with her about this before.
Nie Yan stepped out of his game capsule and glanced at Xie Yao as she stepped out of hers. She wasn’t wearing any clothing, not even lingerie. Her jade-like skin and curvaceous figure were especially moving.
“Are we heading there right away?” Xie Yao asked. Sensing Nie Yan’s lustful gaze, her cheeks blushed red. She felt embarrassed for a moment, then pushed it aside. After all, they’d already shared the most intimate moments together. She puffed out her chest, displaying her beautiful figure in front of Nie Yan.
“Yeah. Wash up and get dressed. We’re leaving immediately!” Nie Yan nodded, withdrawing his gaze.
20 minutes later, Nie Yan got into the driver's seat of his Thrawn, and Xie Yao sat down next to him in the passenger seat. The two sped off toward Huahai.
The Thrawn zoomed through the curtain of the night, its lights drawing a red blur on the road.
Two hours later, the Thrawn arrived in Huahai. Nie Yan parked outside the Rekod Grand Tower. The place was brilliantly lit with lavish decorations. It was an establishment under the Glory Financial Group.
Only a select few knew a world-shaking matter was about to take place here.
Nie Yan and Xie Yao walked inside and toward the elevator going to the top floor, when a woman’s shrill cry came from the elevator door.
“You’ve gotten really full of yourself. Liu Dongming! You better let me in. Don’t forget that I'm still a sub board member of the Glory Financial Group. If I’m not happy, I can have a puny head of security like you kicked out!”
Nie Yan and Xie Yao glanced at each other. They instantly recognized who the shrill voice belonged to. It was Xie Yi, Xie Yao’s aunt.
“I’m sorry, ma’am. The chairman instructed no one but core members are allowed on the top floor,” a voice calmly replied.
