Chapter 1504: 1392, Su Yu’s Rebuttal

"Blue Whale." Yu instantly asked AI Blue Whale, "Who is speaking?"

AI Blue Whale answered, "I don’t know, it’s indecipherable. It should be some Stellar Level presence mimicking a sound, this AI’s level isn’t high enough to discern which one exactly, but it can be confirmed to be Stellar Level."

"Stellar Level?" Yu glanced at the Stellar Level bigwigs on stage, among them was likely the one causing trouble.

"But it shouldn’t be?" Yu silently frowned.

From Chairman Lawrence to Chief Soren, he hadn’t offended any of them.

Although Yu had the hymn as backing, he wasn’t arrogant, he didn’t disregard these Stellar Level existences.

On the surface, he had good relations with the Guards’ forces, had a decent relationship with Ashley, and had even dined with Chief Soren.

The other ones he hadn’t interacted with like Speaker Lawrence Lemo, President Grandon, Gem Dragon Lucia...

Although he hadn’t interacted with them, he hadn’t offended them either. So who was plotting against him?

...

As Yu remained silent, whispers filled the council hall.

A lot of negative comments appeared in the public discussion area of the live broadcast room:

"Yeah, 4.2 trillion! That’s too much!"

"4.2 trillion is truly frightening! Although Blue Whale is worth the money, for Councilor Yu to become rich overnight like this, how can it not make people envious?"

"Most Planet-level bigwigs probably aren’t that wealthy, right?"

"Not to mention Planet-level, even Stellar Level might not be!"

"This is all taxpayers’ money, isn’t it?"

...

Whispers of envy were not lacking among the Planet-levels in the council hall.

Even Stone Man Retdoz was silently speechless, hanging his head.

Although Retdoz had a particularly good relationship with Yu, he had worked all his life to accumulate wealth only to a billion level. Yu had amassed 4.2 trillion overnight! To say he wasn’t envious or jealous at all would be entirely impossible.

It’s like a failing student seeing a slacker enter a prestigious school, gritting their teeth with jealousy.

...

Seeing the situation gradually heading in a negative direction, Yu realized he had to say something.

Although he knew that everyone would be envious, that even the Stellar Level would be dissatisfied and secretly fault-finding, he really hadn’t anticipated that.

"Everyone, actually it’s not as you imagine, 4.2 trillion Holy Silver Coins is indeed a huge sum, no doubt. But giving me this huge sum, for the Hub it’s absolutely not a loss!" Yu began to make his case.

"..." Everyone remained silent, looking at him with disbelief.

They wanted to see how Yu would spin it.

Yu continued earnestly, "Three days ago I had already promised Chief Finance Officer Soren—I will invest 70% of this huge sum in the Fegg Hub, and the investment will be completed within two years."

The remaining 30% I will take back to my home planet.

But everyone should know, although taking it back to my home planet, my home planet also belongs to the Hub’s jurisdiction; essentially, it’s still the Hub’s property!"

Once my home planet develops, the products produced will certainly be brought in abundance to the Hub, and my people will also develop in the Hub. It’s safe to say that the Hub’s interests haven’t suffered any loss!"

Yu paused slightly at this point.

Then, he gazed around at all the councilors on and off the stage, finally facing the camera, and said, "Not only is there no loss, but I’ve also brought you AI Blue Whale.

The role of AI Blue Whale doesn’t need me to elaborate, right? Its value cannot be measured by Holy Silver Coins, regardless of which hub wouldn’t want to get a Level 4 AI?

In summary, everyone should not doubt this transaction; it is indeed a good deed for the Hub with benefits and no harm!"

Yu’s words were firm and decisive.

After saying this, he gently breathed a sigh of relief.

Finally managed to round it off.

After listening to his remarks, the wind direction in the public chat area changed instantly:

"Makes sense!"

"Councilor Yu is right!"

"We were indeed misled, Councilor Yu is right, he’s one of us, giving him the money means it’ll only be spent in the Hub, it’s not like it just disappeared."

"Previously, taxes were given to the Hub Government for spending. Now, it’s just a portion given to Councilor Yu for spending, there’s actually no difference, and the benefits of AI Blue Whale for everyone are enormous!"

"Aren’t you underestimating AI Blue Whale? Besides, if we were to sell AI Blue Whale for 4.2 trillion now, surely some hub would be willing to buy it. Buying it would definitely not be a loss!"

"Right, benefits without harm."

...

The wind in the public chat area changed drastically, the worsening situation was instantly turned around by Yu’s words.

In the council hall, the momentum among the councilors targeting Yu also slightly eased.

However, unlike the general public, in the council hall it wasn’t a reversal, just a slight easing.

Unlike the ordinary folks in the Hub, who only care about where their taxes are being spent, the councilors in the hall were still more envious and jealous of Yu.

Yu’s remarks only solved the general public’s issue, it hadn’t solved theirs, the envy and jealousy towards Yu still remained.

Some councilors even had already harbored ill intentions in private, yet they didn’t show it on the surface.

...

At this moment, Chairman Lawrence knew it was time for him to say something.

So he gave a signal to the camera, and when it returned to him, Lawrence smiled and said, "Alright everyone, there’s no need to misunderstand this transaction. Without a doubt, this transaction offers great benefits to the Hub! Moreover, Councilor Yu is one of us, not an outsider. We are all contributing to the Hub."

He turned to Yu, with a smile carrying a hint of intrigue, "But Councilor Yu, you also need to be cautious, 4.2 trillion is certainly not a small number, surely someone will covet it in the shadows. You must remain vigilant at all times."
