I am a demonic cultivator, not a capitalist with a conscience.

Chapter 537 If you don't want to, then get out (16)

After three "May Buddha have mercy" cries, the aerial attacks finally subsided.

The sea finally calmed down, and the attacks on the sea stopped, but this was not because the other side was afraid, but because a bigger storm was brewing.

After a brief reorganization and calculation of the losses, the little hamster discovered that its air force had been almost entirely lost, leaving only small puppets moving on the deck.

However, the heavy artillery is still there, so there's no problem with firepower coverage. It should be able to hold out for a while longer.

After reading the hamster's report, Chen Yu patted the hamster's head and said with satisfaction, "Class monitor, you did a great job this time!"

"What's so good about it?" Liu Qing said with dissatisfaction. "We suffered too many losses. I should have invited Teacher Zhao earlier."

"Asking too early might cause trouble. Teacher Zhao's power probably can't last long, and exposing it too early is also problematic. The driver's compensation needs to be carefully calculated, junior sister."

"I'm here."

Dao Lingyun immediately stepped forward and asked with a smile, "Senior brother, what's wrong?"

"Help me calculate the compensation, remember to use the highest standard. There's no need to be stingy now, they helped us fight because of a favor, we must give them enough money. Oh, and if you can give them magic power, that would be even better, understand?"

"Okay senior brother."

With the problem resolved here, Chen Yu could no longer return to his cabin.

With all air power gone, he himself is now the only one who can be used as an air force.

With the water control system activated, Chen Yu created a large number of drones, which began flying around the cargo ship.

Although these forces are not comparable to those before, they are invaluable compensation for cargo ships today.

After the cleanup was completed, the cargo ship continued its journey.

When they were still 150 kilometers from their destination, the little hamster suddenly called for a stop.

In the mist, a maritime vessel slowly emerged from the water and blocked the cargo ship's path.

On the deck of the naval vessel, a well-groomed middle-aged man stood at the bow, gazing into the distance.

Chen Yu didn't know who the other person was, but he could tell that the other person was quite wealthy.

The other person's hair is all prosthetic; it looks smooth, but each strand can actually lift a ton of cargo.

These hairs can solidify the spiritual energy in the air and allow the user to absorb it. Each hair costs 750, so a whole head of hair would cost 70 million.

Moreover, these hairs are programmable and can change color according to different environments and moods, making them extremely cool prosthetics.

Looking further down, Chen Yu discovered that this person's prosthetic body was restrained yet luxurious, almost entirely covered by prosthetics, which made him look very dignified, but his inner strength was extremely powerful.

"Wow, he's rich!" the little hamster exclaimed. "He must be worth a billion dollars. Who is he?"

"I don't know, but why is it only Qi Refining?" Chen Yu asked, puzzled.

Dao Lingyun, who was standing to the side, raised his head and patiently explained, "Some family businesses will not allow their leaders to establish their foundation, because they are worried that they will be influenced by the Dao seed of the Star Lord. These are usually old-money industries, and they do things in a very traditional way."

As they were talking, the other person had already approached.

The naval vessel is also a fairly large warship, but compared to a cargo ship, it looks as small as a toy.

But the man at the bow exuded an astonishing aura, making the small warship appear like a luxurious vessel, which made Chen Yu even more curious about the man's identity.

Once they were close enough, the other person finally straightened up and said in a distant tone, "Excuse me, are you Mr. Chen Yu?"

“It’s me,” Chen Yu replied from the deck.

"I am the Minister in charge of external affairs of the Tianmu City Cultivator Management Committee. You can call me Minister Wei."

"Ok."

After agreeing, Chen Yu looked at the other person, waiting for them to continue. The other person was also looking at Chen Yu, waiting for them to continue.

After a long pause, Dao Lingyun whispered, "He's waiting for you to flatter him."

"Why?"

"Minister Wei's family is in charge of ocean shipping business. They are rich and powerful, and are true second-generation rich kids. He considers himself aloof, but he still likes to be flattered. You have to flatter him a few more times before he will be willing to talk."

Chen Yu was momentarily confused, not quite understanding the other person's logic.

Looking at Dao Lingyun, Chen Yu asked seriously, "We're already at war, yet he's waiting for me to flatter him?"

"Yes. You know about the aristocratic families of ancient times, right? They are the equivalent of aristocratic families. We are fighting against Tianmu City, what does it have to do with the Wei family? So even though we are fighting, we cannot forget our manners."

"Well, so you've got all that scum from powerful clans and aristocratic families now, huh? What will happen if I kill someone here?"

"There will be, so I suggest you don't. You should listen to what the other person has to say."

"Forget it, I'm too lazy to listen. It's all stuff I don't want to hear anyway. Little hamster, let's go."

"go!"

The cargo ship continued on its way, leaving the arrogant middle-aged man behind.

Minister Wei was stunned to find himself being ignored.

Was I ignored?
How could he do that!

Realizing he was being bullied, Minister Wei flew into a rage and immediately ordered the naval vessel to follow, once again arrogantly blocking the cargo ship's path.

This time, Chen Yu didn't indulge him.

The cargo ship's route has already been submitted, and since this is international waters, we can go wherever we want as long as there's no conflict.

If you dare to come, we dare to crash into you. Let's see if you're still so arrogant.

Seeing that the cargo ship showed no intention of slowing down, Minister Wei, who had just been full of confidence, finally chickened out.

He brought the naval vessel to the same speed as the cargo ship and shouted loudly from the side, "Chen Yu, I'm here to negotiate."

"Mhm." Chen Yu nodded indifferently, then told Captain Hamster to speed up the boat.

"There's no point in you fighting with the Disaster Response Department. If you start fighting, how will Tianmu City make money?"

"What does it have to do with me? You guys didn't give us Tianyuan a single penny when you were making money," Chen Yu said, picking his ear.

“Now is the time to value peace. The Buddhist monks have money, so just let them have their way. Besides, Minister Cao told me that as long as you are willing to share the copyright of ‘My Dream,’ they are willing to pay a reward of 7.5 million, which is quite a lot.”

"That's enough for you to make 10,000 hairs, that's quite a lot."

Finding that Chen Yu was barely paying attention to him, Minister Wei got angry and snapped.

Tianmu City doesn't want to fight, because if it continues, the fighting will reach Tianmu City, and then it will be impossible to do business there.

Ideally, Chen Yu and Wang Shengzhou would fight each other to the death, and then Tianmu City would mediate, thus saving face and substance.

However, it is now clear that the two sides have already started fighting, and the conflict is about to extend to Tianmu City, which will cause trouble.

Thinking of his mission and the instructions his clan leader had given him, he could only suppress his anger and continue to ask, "So, Chen Yu, what are your conditions? State them first."

Staring at Minister Wei, who seemed to have made a huge concession, Chen Yu sneered.

"You bullied us, and now you're acting like you're doing us a favor. You even want to bargain with me? Fine, my conditions are simple: let me kill Cao Zhen. Are you willing? If not, get lost!"
