"Little Xu, don't think that this is a small matter. The Rohr Resource Group has its current position only because of one thing, and that is the monopoly over the development of the lower city."
"If another underground passage appears and is controlled by other organizations, then very soon, Rohr Resource's position will be shaken. What's more, the logistics of the Bamboo Tree Chamber of Commerce will allow their products to enter the market as soon as possible. When that time comes, the consequences will be self-evident."
Ji Bonong looked at his daughter and sighed. He continued earnestly, "The development of Rohr Resource is not that stable. The Bamboo Tree Chamber of Commerce is an organization formed by the Druid family. They are the 'own people' of the Extraordinaires. If the Bamboo Tree Chamber of Commerce's plan is true, then there is a high probability that some of the Extraordinaires will lean towards the Bamboo Tree Chamber of Commerce."
"However, there is no need to worry too much. The real upper echelons of the Extraordinaires will support us. It is precisely because we are ordinary people that they can establish a monopoly without worry. In fact, everything that Rohr Resource has now can be taken back at any time."
"Even if it does not have its current prominent position in the future, Rohr Resource must still exist and become an existence that restrains the Bamboo Tree Chamber of Commerce."
He paused and continued.
"In the end, only when you have a foothold as an Extraordinaire can Rohr Resource truly have a position in the world of Extraordinaires."
"Before that …"
Ji Zhixu put the documents aside and crossed her arms. She looked up and said, "Before that, we should prioritize stability. Try to preserve Rohr Resource as much as possible and engage in a long-term tug-of-war with the Bamboo Tree Chamber of Commerce until the day both sides compromise. "
"But —"
Her smile suddenly widened, and she smiled like a fox that had stolen a fish. "Why go through so much trouble?" Remember the website: m.9biquge.com.
Ji Bonong could not agree with his daughter's confidence. He frowned and said, "Indeed, even if I have never met the owner of the bookstore, no matter how I look at the information, I can see that he is very powerful."
"But in the current situation, unless that passage is blocked, Rohr Resource's monopoly will not be maintained. But even if the owner of the bookstore can do it, how can you be sure that he will help? After all, an ordinary old man like me doesn't even have the 'potential' for investment. "
"Besides, this isn't something that can be solved by blocking a tunnel. It's very complicated and requires many considerations. At this time, if we're a step slower, Rohr might lose even more resources … Perhaps you think that I'm too conservative, but you can't place your hopes on the superhumans. In their eyes, a normal person like me is no different from an ant. Why would I conspire with an ant? "
Ji Bonong's tone was full of experience, and his expression unconsciously became somewhat dejected.
Ji Zhixu shook her head and interrupted Ji Bonong's nagging. "Your idea is very good and reasonable, but I think you've underestimated Mr. Lin's influence and personality."
"Some information has been purposely concealed by the Miyie Tower, so it's not convenient for me to tell you. However, I think you need to know that Mr. Lin has indeed surpassed the level of a god. Our thoughts can no longer be used to guess his thoughts."
She said seriously, "When I first came into contact with the bookstore, I was only at the Panic level. How big was the difference between me and a normal person? I don't think it's possible in front of an existence of this level. We're all just ants. "
"Then, since everyone is an ant to him, regardless of whether they're superhumans or normal people, the degree of pleasure he gets from 'teasing ants' is naturally not much different."
"Therefore, your worries are really unnecessary."
Ji Zhixu smiled and said, "As long as you're willing to pay a visit personally, I think Mr. Lin won't be stingy with his help. On the contrary, he might be very happy."
"Besides, Mr. Lin is now able to greatly influence the decision-making of the Miyie Tower and the Truth Society … If I'm not wrong, that Vice President Andrew has now become a fan of the bookstore. As long as we win over Mr. Lin, we'll win over both forces."
Ji Bonong had a deep impression of Andrew because every time there was a banquet in the manor, this old playboy would always attend. He was very different from those cold scholars of the Truth Society, and they even chatted a little.
The president of the Truth Society was still in seclusion, and the two vice presidents held the highest authority.
And according to Ji Zhixu's information just now, Andrew would probably be the next leader of the Truth Society.
Ji Bonong's heart skipped a beat. If that was really the case, he could get close to the owner of the bookstore, and the backing of Rohr Resources would be very strong …
But he still showed hesitation on his face.
The temperament of an Extraordinaire was really too uncertain. Even if Ji Zhixu said so, Ji Bonong didn't dare to believe her completely. Moreover, the Bamboo Tree Merchant Guild was attacking fiercely now, and he couldn't leave at all. If he left, it would be tantamount to retreating from the beginning, and the losses would be too great. He might even be unable to recover from this setback.
This step was tantamount to a gamble.
If the gamble was right, the future would be bright; if it was wrong, the whole game would be lost.
Ji Bonong tapped his fingers lightly on the table, his expression solemn, and he muttered to himself in silence.
Ji Zhixu's gaze looked at the scenery even further outside. In the night, the star-like lights illuminated the entire huge manor. "Most of Rohr Resources' income now comes from ordinary people. These benefits and money are indeed incomparably huge capital for ordinary people, but it's also because of this that those Extraordinaires don't care about Rohr Resources, because these things are actually within their reach."
Her low and slightly hoarse female voice was like the whisper of a demon. "Father, don't you think you're putting the cart before the horse? What do we really need? To enter the world of Extraordinaires. "
"As long as Rohr Resources can get the distribution rights of the books in the bookstore, not to mention entering the world of Extraordinaires, even if those Extraordinaires kneel down and lick it, it's just a matter of a word …"
Her eyes were burning. "Those books in the bookstore are the real treasures, the opportunity for Rohr Resources to become an existence that even Extraordinaires need to look up to!"
"As long as we can gain a foothold in that higher plane, those benefits are nothing. It's too narrow, the short-sightedness of the Bamboo Tree Merchant Guild will ruin their future."
"And father, those mortal benefits that you're worrying about now are the real burden that's blocking Rohr Resources' path!"
Ji Bonong felt as if he was struck by lightning. His breathing became heavy, and he clenched his fists. His expression struggled a few times, and he suddenly stood up, gritting his teeth. "I'll take the gamble!"
He pressed his palm on the documents on the table, sweeping all the documents on the Bamboo Tree Merchant Guild's actions and decisions to the floor. He told Ji Zhixu that he would visit the owner of the bookstore tomorrow, and then suddenly paused, revealing a somewhat crazy smile. "Since we're going to do it, let's do it bigger. Little Xu, are you confident that you can invite that Mr. Lin to your twentieth birthday party?"
