Chapter 466: To Dianzang! A Simple and Unpretentious Welcome Gift!
"Miss Dong, the Golden Circle has finally managed to get you to join us! Before this, you had repeatedly declined the Heaven Cloud Group's invitations. It was only after you stepped down from Heaven Cloud that I and several other directors, as well as Vice President Shen, felt it was a pity for you!"
The middle-aged man with a goatee smiled and shook hands with Dong Muchun before speaking.
Dong Muchun also smiled slightly, "I didn't expect that Director Yan had already been a member of the Golden Circle and even held a director's position. No wonder the Fire King Corporation has been thriving these past few years, even expanding its channels to other provinces and beyond Longguo."
"Hahahaha, that's nothing! The Golden Circle provides immense support to its members. Once we sign the contract, Miss Dong, representing Pingyun, officially joins the Golden Circle, I will immediately offer the 2 billion cash flow as a welcome gift from the association! As for me, I was fortunate to have an early connection with Vice President Shen, which allowed me to join the Golden Circle earlier."
The middle-aged man with the surname Yan smiled and spoke with a twinkle in his eyes, like a benevolent and kind-hearted old mouse.
However, the middle-aged man with the surname Yan soon asked again, "Previously, some members of the association who had contact with Miss Dong didn't understand. Now that I'm here on behalf of the association to meet with Miss Dong, and I have some questions I'd like to ask. Is that okay?"
"Director Yan, please feel free to ask."
Dong Muchun's face was perfectly refined, showing no signs of disturbance, and her smile remained constant as always.
The middle-aged man with the surname Yan hesitated slightly before speaking, "We are aware of Pingyun's situation and background. I wonder if you have informed that person about your decision? Of course, I'm not questioning your control over Pingyun, but I also need to give some explanation to the association, right?"
Dong Muchun smiled, as if she had expected this, "In fact, this matter was agreed upon by Su Ping!"
Upon hearing this, the man's eyes lit up, "Oh? Does Su Peiyu know about us? Or was it his decision?"
Dong Muchun chuckled, "I asked him about this matter, and he didn't say much after hearing it. However..."
She paused slightly, looking at the middle-aged man, "Mr. Yan, we are quite familiar with each other! I won't lie to you. In fact, the truth is, Su Ping doesn't need this large sum of cash flow for his development. Production capacity and the industry chain are steadily improving.
In truth, this large sum of cash flow from joining the Golden Circle will eventually be used in Su Ping's breeding base. Is this in line with the rules of the Golden Circle?"
The man laughed, "Hahaha, Miss Dong, what's the issue? Su Peiyu needs money? No wonder, you can rest assured. This 2 billion cash flow is the Golden Circle's welcome gift! How it's used is entirely up to you and Su Peiyu as directors!"
The man paused for a moment, "Su Peiyu is a brilliant young talent from Jianghai Province whom I've always admired. As a local Jianghai enterprise, the Fire King Corporation should support Su Peiyu's endeavors...
How about this? When I return to the association, I'll encourage them to provide additional support for Su Peiyu's endeavors, perhaps in the form of several billion in cash. What do you think, Miss Dong?"
Dong Muchun's eyes lit up, "I feel embarrassed. I'm just joining the Golden Circle, and yet the association is offering so much. I feel a sense of guilt and unease."
The man with the surname Yan narrowed his eyes, understanding Dong Muchun's feelings. "If it were anyone else, it wouldn't be possible. But for you and Su Peiyu, I can guarantee that even the president wouldn't refuse!
As for other enterprises wishing to join the Golden Circle, they would have to exchange shares and engage in mutual equity swaps. However, I understand Su Peiyu and you, Miss Dong.
Su Peiyu's efforts are invested in Pingyun. We wouldn't treat you differently, but we want to show our support and unite the strength of Longguo's internal enterprises.
After all, Miss Dong can understand that some things are better left unsaid. In this environment, unity is the only way to protect ourselves!"
Dong Muchun nodded in agreement. "I completely agree. If the Golden Circle needs anything from me or Pingyun, please don't hesitate to ask. Su Ping may not have much time, but I'm willing to contribute in any way I can.
If there are no further questions, we can proceed with the contract!"
The man nodded and took out a contract that had been prepared in advance.
"Miss Dong, please forgive me. This is a special resource contract, and upon signing, there will be spiritual restrictions! However, the contract itself doesn't impose any constraints; it's just a formal procedure.
Hearing this, Dong Muchun did not let his guard down but carefully scrutinized the contract's contents.
Indeed, as expected, the contract had no explicit restrictions.
If one had to pinpoint a clause, there was only one.
After joining, within three months to two years, one must go to the Eagle Nation or other Beastmaster countries for business inspections.
Dong Muchun raised an eyebrow and pointed to this clause:
"President Yan, what does this mean?"
The middle-aged man glanced at it and then smiled:
"It's exactly as it says. Our Golden Circle is meant to help us Longguo people and Longguo enterprises go global. For Longguo's commercial prosperity, we can't be confined within Longguo alone.
To be honest, not only in Beastmaster countries, but I've even used certain methods to enter some Beast Empire's human-restricted zones for inspections.
I've even had commercial trade dealings with some Beast Empire's Saint Kings! And in terms of trade, the most developed free market is naturally the Eagle Nation.
This isn't about boosting others' morale while diminishing our own prestige. Miss Dong, you might not know that in the Eagle Nation, even large corporations..."
This fellow nodded vigorously, as if eager to leap across the endless sea and stay on the other side of the ocean, speaking with a sense of righteousness.
Dong Muchun nodded in understanding:
"Good. If the opportunity arises, I'd also like to see if Pingyun's industries can expand overseas."
Upon hearing this, President Yan's eyes lit up:
"With Pingyun's product quality, it's only right that we should dump them all over the world, not just in Longguo!"
Dong Muchun smiled and then lightly touched the ring on her finger with her palm before signing her name on the contract, which was connected by spiritual power to the judgment document.
After a few more pleasantries, the two parted ways, each heading in opposite directions within Pingyun Corporation.
Dong Muchun headed straight for the Heart of All Souls.
President Yan, on the other hand, sat in the car returning to the company and made a call. He dialed a name from his phone:
"Hello, Old Shen."
"Old Shen, how did it go? Did Dong Muchun really agree?"
A gentle voice came from the other end of the line.
"Yes, she signed the contract. To be honest, she didn't have any reason not to sign, right?" President Yan said helplessly.
"Old Shen, the other members didn't get such good benefits when they joined!"
The voice on the phone laughed:
"This was the President's idea. Besides, you understand that we're not interested in Dong Muchun herself but in Pingyun Corporation and Su Ping!
With Su Ping's company joining, the Golden Circle might gradually transition from behind the scenes to the forefront!
After all, in the eyes of Longguo's upper echelons, especially the high-ranking officials, he's the real deal, a hot commodity! Haha, by the way, has there been any unusual activity from Wenxinchan?"
"No, Dong Muchun didn't lie, and even if she did, Wenxinchan didn't sense any malice!" President Yan replied.
"That's good; it makes me feel more at ease."
"Right," President Yan recalled his previous words and continued, "Old Shen, Dong Muchun just said that even Su Ping agreed to join the Golden Circle. I was thinking, should we..."
"Hmm?" Old Shen on the phone was taken aback: "Is that so? Haha, great! We've been looking for a way to contact this genius breeding master. Last time, we wanted our guy to try and make contact during the Youth Professional Assessment Tournament, but there was no opportunity. Now, it's like she's come to us!
It's just money, right? The Golden Circle has no shortage of funds! The more we interact with her, the better! But remember to be careful, avoid unnecessary close contact, and maintain a proper distance. Got it?"
"Understood."
After hanging up, President Yan exhaled and then thought for a moment. He opened his phone's contacts and searched for a name, 'Xu Li':
"Old Xu, what are you up to?"
"What else would I be doing? Haha, fishing!"
"You old fellow, you really know how to enjoy life! Still at that Heart of All Souls?" President Yan's expression was curious.
"Yes, didn't I tell you? This place is fantastic! Su Peiyu is an interesting person, and the Heart of All Souls is quite fascinating. I don't even want to go home. Unfortunately, Su Peiyu has bought all the land deeds around here; otherwise, I'd settle down here.
Haha, to be honest, Old Yan, you shouldn't always be so preoccupied with company matters. People should enjoy life occasionally, right?"
Xu Li's hearty laughter came through the phone, causing President Yan to scoff, but his words were warm and friendly:
"Yes, yes, I don't have your luck. There's just too much work every day. Hey, you're always fishing at the Heart of All Souls. Is there some financial difficulty with the Heart of All Souls?"
On the other end, Xu Li's voice paused, but he quickly responded:
"How did you know, Old Yan? Old Guan has been worried about this lately. When we fish together, Old Guan complained that Su Peiyu wants to do everything to perfection.
Action: He really had it tough with logistics."
"Hahaha, that Guan Manager is truly unaware of his good fortune. Countless people want this opportunity, yet they don't even have a chance."
"That's true. Not to mention, having a child become a student of Su Peiyu is already a stroke of luck..."
"Alright, you go fishing, I still have some matters to attend to..."
The phone call ended, and Yan Dong finally heaved a sigh of relief, nodding in satisfaction. He then made a call to the finance department:
"Transfer the 2 billion cash flow that was previously deposited into Pingyun Corporation's account..."
...
Su Ping gazed out the window, where white clouds and blue skies swiftly traversed the exterior of the Tengyun Hao.
Although he had been paying attention to the situation with Dong Muchun and Wu Kuang, he never expected that on this very morning, the 2 billion would actually be deposited.
This undoubtedly eliminated the Heart of All Souls' immediate financial worries.
Furthermore, not only that, after using the Wood Root to cultivate the Life Ancient Tree with Qin Xiaoxue's life, Sage Sang kept his word. In addition to cash, he waved his hand and resolved a large portion of the mid to high-level resources on Su Ping's list.
This is how the pet business works; it's exhilarating when you're broke, but making money isn't that difficult, right?
Moreover, Su Ping also took out another Wood Root and, in the astonished gaze of Sage Sang, gave it to the Holy Spirit Rank pet, Yin Muchan Sang, the first pet of that rank he had ever seen, before the Tengyun Hao departed for Dianzang.
After this peculiar Yin Muchan Sang absorbs the Wood Root and completes its cultivation, it will naturally not let him down.
Although he had slightly revealed the power of the Wood Root in his haste to reach Dianzang, these two individuals before him are among those he can trust.
Without the financial crisis of the Heart of All Souls as a concern, Su Ping's attention shifted to another matter.
His restless spiritual power gradually calmed down under this soothing influence.
Breaking through to the Sovereign Fifth Stage had little to do with the three days of fishing and two days of meditation he had recently engaged in.
The primary reason lay within his beastmaster space.
At this thought, Su Ping projected his consciousness into the beastmaster space,
This sudden trip to Dianzang disrupted his original rhythm, but the cultivation of the Wood Root truly gave him a pleasant surprise.
Xiao Qing's body remained in the very center of the beastmaster space.
At this moment, the little one's cultivation was the highest among all of Su Ping's pets!
It even surpassed Su Ping's cultivation, reaching the Sovereign Sixth Stage!
Indeed, it was because of Xiao Qing's breakthrough that Su Ping also broke through, getting extremely close to the threshold during his recent meditation.
Xiao Qing's breakthrough was from the previous Sovereign Fourth Stage, directly soaring to the Sovereign Sixth Stage.
Indeed, cultivating intensely with the Green Demon Body to refine the Wood Root magical herb, even allowing the external incarnation to refine together, caused the Green Demon Body's super-tier skill...Green Demon Body...from beginner level...to proficient level..."
The difficulty of elevating the level of a super-tier skill is self-evident.
This time, it was considered a decent improvement.
The elevation of skill level holds immense significance. Even Su Ping initially didn't anticipate that, with his soaring cultivation and ample resources for cultivation, Qian Yi's cultivation progress would be so swift.
Now, he has already reached the Sovereign Fourth Stage.
However, Qian Yi's racial limit is only the Sovereign Fifth Stage.
Even this Fifth Stage is an immense leap.
Initially, when the little one's cultivation evolution was first completed, the resources used were not many, nor were they particularly precious. The primary focus was on finding the direction of evolution.
Later, with the connection of the Wuxing Paper Body and under the Sword Dao Incarnation, the racial limit was repeatedly broken through.
But that was all.
Compared to Xiao Qing, whose racial limit has reached the Emperor Rank, Qian Yi, in order to rapidly elevate again, will next face secondary evolution!
Su Ping slightly consoled this little one.
Qian Yi's potential was already perfectly confirmed during the Young Man Professional Assessment.
Secondary evolution will inevitably not be as simple as before, but at that time, he will also need to carefully consider this little one's evolution and cultivation direction.
'Ding Dong.'
A text message brought Su Ping's consciousness back to reality from the beastmaster space. He took out his phone, and as expected, it was a message from Leng Ye:
'I've already discussed with the Dianzang side. After you arrive in Chunhua City, the Poison Saint will send someone to find you!'
Su Ping's eyebrows lifted as he thought of the legendary Poison Saint.
After entering Longcheng, he also gained an understanding of the publicly known Holy Spirit Rank beastmaster in Longguo.
However, there isn't much information about this person. It's known that he advanced to the Holy Spirit Rank more than ten years ago, making him relatively young.
'Ding Dong.'
Another text message arrived, and it was from Sang Sheng:
'Brother Su, I've already contacted the other side. After you arrive in Chunhua City, the Poison Saint will send someone to find you!'
Su Ping's heart stirred. He had heard of this Poison Saint before.
After entering Longcheng, he also gained an understanding of the publicly known Holy Spirit Rank beastmaster in Longguo.
However, there isn't much information about this person. It's known that he advanced to the Holy Spirit Rank more than ten years ago, making him relatively young.
Su Ping's heart stirred. He had heard of this Poison Saint before.
Action: Constantly stationed in Dianzang, one could also discern the attributes of the other's pet beast from their title, and during the time at Rongjia, a few words were said by the cheap maternal grandfather, who was beating around the bush.
Aside from this, there was nothing else to understand.
With that temperament of Leng Ye, it was evident that the two were acquainted.
Su Ping didn't mind and replied:
'How's it going over there?'
It was just a habitual question, but what he didn't expect was that Leng Ye's message was indeed sent back:
'Not too good, there's a trend of large-scale beast tides among the undead beyond the Northern Border, although the highest level is currently only the Imperial-ranked undead beast, but it can't be ruled out that there's a truly high-intelligence Holy Spirit-ranked undead orchestrating it.
Alright, we'll talk about it later when there's time, you go to Dianzang, and be sure to pay attention to safety.'
Leng Ye sent a long message, but it caused Su Ping's eyebrows to furrow slightly.
Is something happening in the Northern Border too? Does it have anything to do with Tianmu?
Speaking of which, it's been a long time since he last had the Tianmu imprint taken out from the Book of Ten Thousand Beings.
After Yin Luo finishes raising the origami person, the schedule to enter Tianmu will also be brought up.
Thinking of this, Su Ping sighed.
Why does it feel like a storm is brewing?
But Sang Sheng laughed beside him:
"What's wrong? Sighing doesn't seem like you."
Su Ping laughed:
"It's nothing, by the way, how's your pet beast doing?"
"Not yet, but I can feel that it won't take too long. By the way, Su Ping, after you arrive in Dianzang, you and Xiaoxue can stay in Chunhua City, I'm going to the front line for a trip.
Also, tell Dragon Two that the Jiaolong Ship behind the Soaring Cloud Ship will also stop at the front line, so don't stay in Chunhua City, as there's no prepared helipad in Chunhua City.
After seeing the situation at the front line, I'll come to pick you up in the afternoon, how's that?"
Sang Sheng smiled.
Su Ping was taken aback, Chunhua City is the provincial capital of Dianzang Province, how can such a big Chunhua City not have a helipad?
However, he didn't think much of it and nodded: "Alright."
Just as Leng Ye said, Du Sheng's person will also be in Chunhua City.
It won't take much time.
Soon, the Soaring Cloud Ship's speed slowly descended.
The jet stream made the Soaring Cloud Ship seem to be floating on a cloud.
"Let's go down from here!"
The vehicle's jet stream made it seem as if they were floating in the air, slowly descending from mid-air, as if the gravity had no effect on them.
Sang Sheng's vehicle was indeed the most comfortable.
Su Ping waved his hand and watched as the Jiaolong Ship and Soaring Cloud Ship took off again, heading towards the horizon. Only then did he exhale, while Xiaoxue beside him was a little surprised:
"What's wrong with the old lady? Why is she in such a hurry? But this is good..."
Miss Qin glanced at Su Ping with her beautiful eyes and then looked around.
This wasn't the helipad in Chunhua City, it seemed that there really wasn't a place for them to use, just as Sang Sheng had said.
This place was obviously a building on the outskirts of Chunhua City.
Su Ping was a little confused, scratching his head. What the hell was this place? Most importantly, could Du Sheng's people find them here?
The two walked down from the rooftop.
Miss Qin waved her hand, and within the beast taming space, a familiar white mechanical sports car appeared before their eyes.
Although it wasn't as flashy as Dong Muchun's Red King, the snow-white body had both sharpness and elegance.
"Get in."
The vehicle slowly drove, and Su Ping pressed the watch on his wrist, saying directly:
"Feifei, locate my current position and navigate to the planned route within the Chunhua City area."
"Yes, master."
Although Feifei's main body was still in the Heart of All Souls, it could control all Titan terminals in real-time through the ubiquitous wireless network.
"I've found your location, master. You're in the northern suburbs of Chunhua City, about 20 kilometers away from the Wanchun District in the city center! I've planned the route for you, and there's a no-man's land ahead, please be careful."
No-man's land? Su Ping's eyebrows raised, and at this moment, he suddenly caught something.
However, Miss Qin didn't seem to mind, and after Feifei projected the navigation through the watch, she stepped on the gas and sped off.
Especially on the road in the no-man's land, she drove even faster.
The mechanical sports car had mechanical intelligence control, so there was no need to worry about accidents.
However, the guess in Su Ping's mind became clearer at this moment.
Just as the white sports car was speeding through the no-man's land, Su Ping's internal alarm suddenly went off!
Without even thinking, he instantly stretched out his hand, and Qian Yi's body, directly outside the window.
At the same time, a loud explosion sounded in his ear.
Following that was the sharp and rapid braking sound of the mechanical sports car.
Su Ping leaped out of the car window and saw Qian Yi holding a paper sword, slicing a small rocket that had arrived in front of them at supersonic speed.
This greeting was indeed unique and unexpected. The intense explosion and fire made Su Ping's head shrink.
However, was this playing a little too big?
