Destiny Mission of game ‘Star Ring’
Chapter 272 - 272 272 The Deal Second Update

272: Chapter 272: The Deal (Second Update) 272: Chapter 272: The Deal (Second Update) “I’ve arranged to meet with Ye Jing for lunch at the café next to Federation Bank.

But there’s one thing I don’t quite understand.

We clearly have many channels through which we can buy equipment, so why choose Ye Jing?”

Sun Li asked with great puzzlement.

“I’ve looked into this man.

He’s somewhat an insider, and in any case, his surname is also Ye.

Although Ye Jing appears dissolute and flippant, he’s very principled when it comes to trading.

Moreover, with such a large purchase, we’re bound to attract attention, so the usual channels are not suitable.”

“But does he have the capability to handle our order?”

“Don’t underestimate those who do private jobs; he definitely has several backers.”

Qian Chengxue saw the situation with great clarity.

“I see.”

Sun Li nodded in agreement.

At noon, Ye Jing sat quietly in a corner of the casual restaurant, his calm exterior betraying a hint of confusion.

In fact, he was quite puzzled himself.

Why had Qian Chengxue, who was in the prime of her success, suddenly set up a meeting with him alone?

Time ticked away slowly.

In the end, Qian Chengxue and Sun Li arrived.

Of course, before that, the two had already been to Federation Bank and successfully obtained the funds from the mortgage.

“Sister, you’re here.”

Ye Jing quickly stood up and greeted her with a smile.

“Sorry for the slight delay.”

“No delay.

I’m free today.”

Ye Jing replied cheerfully.

“Alright, we’re all family here, so I won’t beat around the bush.

I know you’ve been dealing in the illegal trade of resources for a long time.”

Qian Chengxue got straight to the point.

Upon hearing this, Ye Jing’s thoughts raced as he wondered if he had done anything particularly egregious recently?

After thinking it through, it seemed he hadn’t done anything particularly bad, so he smiled and said, “Sister, I just dabble in my free time.

But I really haven’t done anything excessive.”

“I’m not here to accuse you.

I’m here to buy things from you.”

Qian Chengxue said seriously.

When Ye Jing heard Qian Chengxue’s words, the smile faded from his face, and he replied earnestly, “Sister, I’m a bit confused.

You have many channels.

Why choose me?”

He never believed in pies falling from the sky, so he was cautious rather than pleased by Qian Chengxue’s unusual behavior.

Business is like a battlefield, not to mention that his business was somewhat grey.

“Because I think you’re reliable.”

Qian Chengxue replied indifferently.

Ye Jing’s expression changed repeatedly as he tentatively asked, “May I know what you want to buy?”

“I need anti-air defensive weapons, with good performance, low cost, and large quantity.”

Qian Chengxue directly demanded tough conditions.

After hearing this, Ye Jing let his guard down quite a bit, but he began to worry; the deal was not easy to handle.

“Sister, I’m not speaking carelessly.

Due to the Wet God Guild’s recent antics, the price of anti-air weapons has nearly doubled, and they are very much in demand.”

Qian Chengxue took a list out of her file bag and handed it to Ye Jing.

“This is what I want.”

After looking it over, Ye Jing’s eyelids twitched, and he asked with a dark expression.

“Sister Xue, are you sure you haven’t got the numbers wrong?

Did you accidentally add an extra zero?

Where am I supposed to find this much stock?”

“No mistake.

I want this amount.

I believe you should have ways to get it.”

“Aren’t you overestimating me?”

“Just tell me, can you do it or not?”

Qian Chengxue looked at Ye Jing intently.

Ye Jing’s face showed a range of emotions, before he finally clenched his teeth and said, “It’s doable, but in terms of price, my rough estimate puts this batch at at least 4.2 billion, and it has to be in cash.”

“That’s too expensive.

My budget is three billion.”

Qian Chengxue flatly rejected.

“You can’t get it with three billion.

Let’s meet halfway; I’ll take on the order for four billion.

The market is really expensive now, and by the time you purchase these weapons, prices will definitely surge more.”

“Still too expensive.

Just three billion!

I’ve calculated, and you will still make a profit.”

“No, three hundred million is absolutely the floor.

Considering we’re from the same family, the very least I can accept is 3.5 billion.

If it really can’t be done, then you can owe me the fifty million.

You must settle the amount within a month, and I promise to keep this transaction completely confidential.”

Ye Jing could see that was probably the limit of Qian Chengxue’s financial capabilities.

“Deal!”

Qian Chengxue confirmed it on the spot.

“Pleasure doing business!”

Ye Jing stood up and extended his hand.

“Hold on, I have to put something ugly out there first—I need you to deliver this batch of goods as quickly as possible.”

Qian Chengxue said candidly because she needed to implement her plan as quickly as possible.

Any delay could lead to complications.

After hearing this, Ye Jing couldn’t help but frown and grit his teeth as he replied.

“Fine!”

———————————–

Inside the rest lounge on the tenth floor of Dawn Group’s building, Su Mo was lying on the bed resting.

Just then, someone pushed the door open, and a familiar voice urged.

“Still asleep?

What time do you think it is?

Get up quickly, it’s time to go online.”

Su Mo opened his eyes and looked at Lin Zinuo in disbelief.

“How did you get back?”

“For such a big operation, how could I not come?

Also, there was an investment opportunity, and you didn’t even tell me—I just missed out on a chance to get rich.”

Complaining, Lin Zinuo stepped forward and pinched Su Mo’s neck enthusiastically.

Su Mo was speechless.

“Since when do you have money to invest?”

“That check you gave me, I haven’t used it yet.

I could have used it to invest.”

Lin Zinuo acted as though he had just lost a fortune, in apparent agony.

A speechless Su Mo didn’t even know how to respond to Lin Zinuo.

“Let’s just go.”

Sighing, Lin Zinuo pulled Su Mo up and left.

——————————————-

At Red Bay Base, everyone had just come online when they saw the whole base was bustling.

NVC-03-type anti-air missile vehicles were entering one by one, followed by heavily fortified transport trucks covered with tarpaulins.

“So many weapons.”

…

Su Mo and Lin Zinuo observed the crowd unloading weaponry.

Lin Zinuo couldn’t help but remark, “This isn’t playing a game; it’s clearly burning money.

All that hard-earned cash.”

“In this world, there are no surefire ways to rake in the dough without effort.

To reap rewards, you have to make sacrifices.

If we can successfully take over the Gold Mine, this investment is still worthwhile.”

Su Mo was also feeling very excited at the time.

“Hey, just for one war, our Legion is going to such lengths?

How much money must the Sky Dragon Guild burn through for one battle?”

“One can’t even begin to count that; it’s impossible to tally.”

Su Mo also felt quite shocked when he thought about it.

Just then, he suddenly caught sight of a familiar figure and said reflexively.

“Isn’t that Ye Jing?

What’s he doing here?”

Lin Zinuo followed his gaze to Ye Jing and also felt puzzled, but then something dawned on him.

“Wait, these weapons…

didn’t we buy them from him?

Does that guy have such strong capabilities?”

“Most likely.

It really proves the saying, never underestimate anyone.”

Su Mo said thoughtfully.

Before long, Qian Chengxue had taken delivery of all the purchased weapons.

Without another word, she ordered the unpacking of all weaponry and distributed it to all elite combatants.

She then announced to the personnel below that the military exercise was beginning.
