Chapter 267: Establishment of the Task System
Chapter 267: Establishment of the Task System
Upon hearing the other party's demand of 80,000, Lu Wu was taken aback.
He couldn't believe it, did they not know who he was?
Was his reputation truly so insignificant?
Or was it that his appearance invited trouble, making everyone want to stomp on him? Was this price hike even legal?
Lu Wu decided to joke about it.
"Don't you know who I am? Aren't you afraid that I might get upset and create my own advancement plan, stealing your business?"
The other party was extremely polite.
"Dear, if you can do it, you're welcome to try!"
Lu Wu almost spat out a mouthful of old blood.
He immediately hung up the phone.
After hanging up, Lu Wu felt something was amiss, so he had someone investigate the background of that company.
With a quick search, Lu Wu discovered the source of the problem—the company's owner.
The company was called 'Zhen Tian Breeding', owned by someone with the surname Gu, yes, the same Gu as Gu Tian.
It was Gu Tian's company.
No wonder, they were old rivals.
"That explains it!"
"Well, I was hoping to take it easy, but now I have no choice but to do it myself."
Lu Wu sighed as he spoke.
But his sleeves were already rolled up, and his eyes shone with determination.
He was clearly ready for a big challenge.
While Lu Wu was brimming with enthusiasm, Gu Tian was feeling incredibly pleased.
The price hike was his idea, and during Lu Wu's last visit to the capital, the Gu father and son had been humiliated by Lu Wu.
Gu Tian had been bedridden for over half a month, and his son had been left questioning his life choices after Lu Wu's crushing defeat.
After the competition, Gu Zhen Tian locked himself in his room for an entire week.
When he finally emerged, he immediately entered a Mystic Realm and hadn't come out since.
The Gu father and son had been thoroughly defeated by Lu Wu, so it was no surprise that Gu Tian would refuse to sell to Lu Wu.
"With his personality, he's probably already researching the evolution plan for the Steel Armored Ox."
Regarding Lu Wu's ability to create an evolution plan for the Steel Armored Ox, Gu Tian didn't doubt Lu Wu's capabilities.
Given his demonstrated talent, Lu Wu could definitely accomplish it.
It was just a matter of time.
However, the key was the 'Steel Armored Wild Pig Evolution Kit' in Jiangnan University's modified curriculum, and if Lu Wu took too long, he and his company might be able to handle it, but Jiangnan University couldn't afford the delay.
"Even if he manages to research it early, he'll eventually realize that I've blocked him by controlling the essential materials, and he'll have to come begging to me."
The thought of Lu Wu pleading before him soon made Gu Tian feel incredibly satisfied.
Just as he was reveling in his joy, his phone rang.
Gu Tian took a look at the caller and stood up instinctively, answering the phone with utmost respect.
"Elder Feng..."
The elderly man on the other end didn't wait for Gu Tian's greeting and asked directly, "Are you blocking Lu Wu's access to the Steel Armored Ox products?"
Gu Tian was stunned.
He cautiously replied, "Such a minor matter, why would it disturb you, Elder..."
"Don't provoke him!"
The other party said only this before hanging up, leaving Gu Tian holding his phone in a daze.
After a while, Gu Tian snapped out of it and immediately called his subordinate.
Soon, Gu Tian's subordinate contacted Lu Wu's company, stating that they were withdrawing their previous offer and were willing to sell to Lu Wu's company at 5,000 per set.
This price was essentially at cost, as Gu Tian had been frightened by the call.
The caller was someone of great importance, and Gu Tian was genuinely nervous.
So, he was considering making a sacrifice to avoid further trouble.
However, his plan didn't work out, as his subordinate soon returned with news.
"Boss, the Lu Family Group has informed us that they've already developed a new evolution plan."
Upon hearing this, Gu Tian was dumbfounded.
How was this possible?
It hadn't even been three hours, and they had already created a new evolution plan? Gu Tian felt that either Lu Wu was lying or he had some sort of cheat.
The truth of the matter was the latter.
In fact, from the moment Lu Wu purchased those three products, he had already deduced Gu Tian's evolution plan through them.
However, Lu Wu had a strong sense of copyright awareness.
He felt that stealing someone else's ideas was wrong and wanted to support the original creators by purchasing the official products.
Little did he know that he would encounter Gu Tian, who refused to allow it, leaving Lu Wu with no choice but to immediately head to the farm and round up all 371 Iron Armored Oxen that were on the verge of evolution.
The Cultivation Plan could be used once per day for each Summoned Beast, not just once per day in total.
This meant that as long as Lu Wu had enough Summoned Beasts, he could theoretically modify them hundreds of times a day.
In the 169th chapter, Lu Wu began the modifications, one by one, for all 371 Iron Armored Oxen.
Just as Gu Tian was preparing to back down, Lu Wu stumbled upon a plan he hadn't even considered himself.
...
Evolution Plan: Steel Armor Dairy Cow
Plan Description: A completely new version modified from the original Steel Armored Ox evolution plan.
This version is only applicable to female cows, and the evolved cows will have slightly lower combat power, but the quality of milk they produce will be significantly higher than that of ordinary Steel Armored Oxen.
Not only will they be superior as materials, but long-term consumption can also enhance the constitution of Summoned Beasts.
...
For Lu Wu, this plan was far better than Gu Tian's, so why would he still want Gu Tian's products?
Even if Lu Wu's cultivation plan was slightly more expensive, costing around 10,000 points per cow, he was determined to use it.
With this cultivation plan in place, Lu Wu's production of the 【Steel Armored Wild Pig Evolution Kit】 faced no further issues.
Lu Wu could now focus more of his energy on the curriculum reform at Jiangnan University.
After the credit system was firmly established, Lu Wu's curriculum reform could officially begin.
At this point, Lu Wu was finally able to implement the task system.
Over the next few days, Lu Wu began meeting with various individuals from Jiangnan Province.
First on his list was his godmother, Jiang Yuexing.
Lu Wu wanted to establish the task system, and the Breeding Academy was relatively straightforward since it was cultivation-related.
However, the situation at the Summoner Academy was different.
The tasks on this side focused primarily on combat and exploration.
These tasks couldn't come out of thin air, nor could they be arranged by Jiangnan University for students to play.
Therefore, Lu Wu needed to meet with Jiang Yuexing to discuss contracting some tasks from the Alliance, such as Summoner criminal sieges, Summoned Beast sieges, and patrol duties.
After returning from the Demon Cavern, Lu Wu and the wealthy woman hadn't seen each other.
Unexpectedly, their first meeting would be in a professional setting.
The relationship between the two also underwent a change at this time.
Originally a mother-son relationship, now one was the de facto controller of Jiangnan University, and the other was the Governor of Jiangnan Province, making them tentative partners.
Perhaps due to the Demon Cavern incident, Jiang Yuexing was surprisingly cooperative when discussing this collaboration.
Lu Wu easily secured a business deal with the Alliance, and the task board for the Summoner Academy at Jiangnan University had some work to do.
Subsequently, Lu Wu met with the person in charge of the Summoner Center and also contracted a business deal from them.
Lu Wu smoothly established the task system at Jiangnan University.
With the task system in place, the main framework of Jiangnan University's curriculum reform was essentially set up.
From then on, Lu Wu wouldn't need to be as busy, only needing to supervise and fill in any gaps.
Whether Lu Wu's curriculum reform would be a success or failure would only be determined with time.
However, Lu Wu had newfound confidence in himself.
Barring any unforeseen circumstances, it should be a success.
...
The Jiangnan University storyline will conclude in the next chapter or two, and we will return to the Summoned Beast cultivation side.
