Chapter 642: Shen Qiu's Apology! The Imagination Stone!
Chapter 642: Shen Qiu's Apology! The Imagination Stone!
The situation at the mall was impossible to hide, and there was no need to conceal it.
So, when Su Ping and Dong Muchun returned to the hotel from the mall, everyone who had been waiting there surrounded them.
Especially Shen Qiu, the vice president of the Shanhe Group, his face was filled with concern.
This worried expression was not fake; it was genuine.
Of course, whether he was worried about Dong Muchun's safety or the potential consequences of any incident involving her, was unknown.
However, everyone clearly saw the cold, frosty expression on Miss Dong's face.
"Miss Dong..."
Shen Qiu quickly stepped forward, but this time, Dong Muchun merely glanced at him indifferently.
"Vice President Shen, we can discuss your matters later. Regarding the actions in Cherry Land, Vice President Shen should also consider the situation carefully."
With these words, Shen Qiu's face turned extremely grim.
He couldn't say anything but watch as the three figures took the elevator and returned to their rooms.
He glanced at the figures beside him.
He noticed that even these people had a hesitant look on their faces.
They had already witnessed the environment in Dragon Nation.
So, over the years, many had forgotten that in this extraordinary world, power was the most crucial factor.
In the eyes of many, having enough wealth was enough to influence and control this nation and the world.
However, it was evident that the situation in Cherry Land was such that even Dong Muchun had been attacked, and they couldn't guarantee that the same wouldn't happen to them one day.
Among these people, some knew the details about the Golden Union, while others were merely clinging to this connection, hoping to advance their interests during this time.
If they were to risk their lives over this, it would be foolish.
Therefore, at this moment, not only Dong Muchun but even they themselves felt a bit concerned.
Someone whispered beside Shen Qiu:
"Is Cherry Land so unsafe? In Cherry Capital, someone can directly summon Imperial-level beast companions, and even Holy Spirit-level attackers? If it weren't for this person's strong foundation, and the efforts of the Dong family and Su Breeder, there might have been real trouble!"
"Why don't we withdraw? Cherry Land isn't that big of a deal, and that Japanese guy talks big, but he can't even guarantee the safety of the participants. What credibility do they have left?"
"Well, we'll have to see what President Shen and the other directors say! In any case, they were the ones who arranged for us to come to Cherry Capital."
"..."
Shen Qiu glanced at the others, each with their own thoughts, and felt helpless. Nonetheless, he quickly assured them:
"Rest assured, everyone. I and President Shen will definitely handle this matter properly. If necessary, we will also report it to the Holy Spirit-level existence in our Dragon Nation.
Moreover, I believe that Cherry Land will give us a reasonable explanation. Otherwise, I will be the first to lead the withdrawal from the Cherry Land market!"
Everyone exchanged glances. Previously, whether it was the scale of their enterprises or their individual strengths, Shen Qiu was undoubtedly the leader. But now, it seemed uncertain.
After an awkward farewell, Shen Qiu's face turned gloomy and cold. He quickly returned to his room, took out his phone, and dialed a number.
The phone rang for half a minute before it was answered. An aged voice came from the other end:
"Hello, I know about the Cherry Capital incident. Is Miss Dong from the Dong family okay?"
Shen Qiu quickly replied:
"It seems she's fine, but her mood is not good. I'm not sure if it will affect this plan and preparation."
The voice on the phone remained calm:
"These Japanese pirates in Cherry Land can't accomplish much. However, the branch plan of Golden Heart is crucial, and the special envoy of Golden Heart is still here. This time, the establishment of the Golden Heart branch is a sure thing.
The fact that these people came here proves their attitude, and it's a win-win situation for them. They have no reason to refuse!
The only concern is Miss Dong's situation. You must appease her; otherwise, if she reports the situation to Su Ping and an investigation is launched, the connection between the Golden Union and Golden Heart might be exposed."
Shen Qiu frowned:
"President, can this matter be kept hidden?"
Dong Muchun must have known about this, right? This time, Pingyun is also involved, and it's hard to believe that they would let him get away with it."
"No, you don't understand. Although Dong Muchun is said to be in control of Pingyun, in the end, the one who makes the final decisions is still Su Ping."
According to the rules of Golden Heart, joining Golden Heart and integrating shares into the system of Golden Heart allows all financial professionals in the world to purchase them, but they also need Su Ping's approval.
As far as I know, Su Ping's attitude towards Golden Heart is not exactly friendly!"
The aged voice spoke up.
"Hmm? Why is that?"
Shen Qiu quickly asked.
The aged voice finally spoke:
"I received some news. Sang Holy's son, that Qin Chuan, once studied abroad in Eagle Nation, and after returning, he founded a company.
This young man knew about Golden Heart's reputation when he was in Eagle Nation, and he was determined to join it.
In fact, in order to please Charles's disciples, he accidentally leaked Su Ping's information and almost got Su Ping killed in that attack.
Since then, Su Ping's attitude towards Golden Heart has not been friendly. If it weren't for Sang Holy, Qin Erlong, and that Qin family girl's face, that Qin Chuan,
I don't know if he can keep his life now, but he definitely won't be able to live so carefree."
"So that's the case! There's even such a thing!"
Shen Qiu finally understood.
However, he wasn't surprised that the person on the other end of the phone knew this information.
The other party was not a Saint-Ranked figure openly in Dragon Nation, but the channels they obtained, their understanding of the internal situation in Dragon Nation, and even their own strength, were all absolutely formidable.
Moreover, Shen Qiu had long suspected that this President, in fact, had already been promoted to Saint-Rank, but had just been keeping a low profile.
"President, have you arrived in Cherry Capital?"
"Yes, I'm here. I'm with the Special Envoy now. Alright, I won't waste any more time. That guy, Yoshino Haruki, has probably finished his investigation. In the next few days, Cherry Land will likely be in some turmoil.
In these days, you and the people in the Union, tell them not to go out unnecessarily. Wait for the symposium to start, and then the Golden Heart Branch will be seated."
"Yes!"
The phone was hung up, and Shen Qiu wiped the sweat from his forehead. Although he had known the old President for so many years, the old President had always been approachable, but still, the impression he left on Shen Qiu was too profound.
It was so profound that Shen Qiu didn't dare to argue.
Moreover, the rise of Shanhe Group was also inseparable from this person's help.
After hanging up the phone, Shen Qiu thought for a moment and walked out of the room, arriving at the door of one of the guest rooms and knocking on it.
Knock, knock, knock.
Soon, footsteps could be heard from the room, and then a figure named Zhang Haoming opened the door.
"President Shen."
Shen Qiu smiled and looked at Su Ping:
"Manager Zhang, I'm truly sorry about today's matter. May I go in and speak to Miss Dong properly?"
"Of course, please come in."
Su Ping quickly smiled and nodded, leading Shen Qiu inside.
Dong Muchun was also in the living room, seemingly on a phone call, and upon seeing Shen Qiu enter, she paid no attention and didn't intend to hang up.
Su Ping poured a cup of boiling tea and handed it to Shen Qiu.
Shen Qiu didn't notice because at that moment, Dong Muchun was already speaking into the phone:
"Hmm, I understand. If there's any danger, I'll return at the first moment. You take good care of yourself."
The phone was hung up, and Shen Qiu quickly stood up:
In the center of the room, a crystal was swaying gently.
Swaying... crystal...
At first glance, the two seemed like an odd pair.
But in reality, that's precisely what it was.
Dong Muchun, for a moment, couldn't identify what it was.
However, Shen Qiu gently spoke, his voice filled with concern:
"This item is the compensation from the Golden Union to you, Miss Dong. The President is aware of the situation and sends his apologies for not being able to come in person due to other matters. Please don't take offense."
He placed the stone on the table, his expression sincere. Dong Muchun glanced at Su Ping and noticed that her 'manager' had narrowed his eyes, intently examining the object on the table.
Dong Muchun didn't recognize the item at first.
But Su Ping identified it instantly, and not only that, he had a connection with this thing!
It was a Saint-Ranked Resource.
Undoubtedly, at this moment, if Shen Qiu had offered something inferior, Dong Muchun would have dismissed him without hesitation.
And this Saint-Ranked Resource was an extremely rare find.
It was a Spiritual Resource!
Of course, most resources of this type contained both Gold and Earth elemental energies.
And this particular item possessed some of the former's energy influences.
Imagination Stone!
Indeed, if one had to describe it, it was like Femail's 'father' and 'mother.'
Initially, Femail's origin, as analyzed by the Eternal Spirit Core, was a Gold elemental core born from the Saint-Ranked Resource 'Imagination Stone' vein.
If not for unforeseen circumstances, Femail's starting point would have been at least the Imperial Level Peak, or even a Saint-Ranked Gold and Spiritual dual-elemental Spirit Sprite.
It was destined to be a superior existence from the start.
However, after being discovered by the Tianyun Group, it was turned into a Mechanical Core.
It became a special Mechanical Core Beast with a high Spiritual attribute, unable to integrate with a mechanical body.
And now, the resource Shen Qiu offered as an apology was this Spiritual Imagination Stone.
The effectiveness of this item was indisputable; first and foremost, it could enhance the spiritual realm of Beastmasters.
This is why Spiritual Resources are so precious.
Not only could Spiritual Companion Beasts use them, but Beastmasters could as well.
And the demand from Beastmasters was even greater.
Secondly, this item could assist in the cultivation of some Spiritual Hyper-class Skills, accelerating the progress of Spiritual Skill training.
Aside from these two functions, Su Ping was aware of a third one that others might not know about.
This Imagination Stone, during Su Ping's time at the Advanced Academy in Magic City, had been one of the core resources used to construct the Trial Tower, which could virtually create numerous beast companion shadows for trainee practice.
In addition to the mechanical devices, this Imagination Stone was a crucial resource in building the Trial Tower.
Its value far exceeded ordinary expectations, and among Saint-Ranked Resources, it was considered exceptionally remarkable.
Shen Qiu's sincerity was evident.
Su Ping nodded in agreement. Who wouldn't want a Saint-Ranked Resource? Even he couldn't just casually obtain one from the two major associations.
Noticing Su Ping's gesture, Dong Muchun's expression softened.
Witnessing this, Shen Qiu breathed a sigh of relief, but his heart bled internally.
This Saint-Ranked Resource wasn't something money could buy!
Even a corporation as massive as the Shanhe Group would struggle to acquire such an item.
Dong Muchun then spoke:
"I accept the item, and I appreciate your sincerity, Shen Qiu. But with the situation in Cherry Land, why go to such lengths?
Is the President so keen on this market? If you have concerns, I can personally discuss it with the President."
Shen Qiu's face revealed helplessness and bitterness:
"Miss Dong, this truly isn't my decision. I can only assure you that the outcome will not disappoint you. As for the rest, including the meeting with the President, we'll have to wait until after the symposium in two days to discuss it further!"
Seeing Shen Qiu's determination, Dong Muchun narrowed her eyes, then nodded:
"Alright, I'll wait for two more days. Let's see what magic this Cherry Capital holds!"
