"I'll probably need half a month to recuperate from this injury. It's boring to just sit around like this. Do you have any good suggestions? "Celine asked casually from the side.
"Suggestions?" Garon was about to speak when the ward door suddenly opened. Instructor Hamm and another Huang Mao man with a crew cut walked in.
"If you're bored, why don't you go to the Battlenet?" The Huang Mao man asked.
"Instructor, you're here?" Celine glanced at the Huang Mao man. There was no special expression of respect on her face. It was as if she was looking at a normal friend.
"I'll go to your room. I didn't see you in the ward. I heard from the nurse that you moved here on your own accord. I knew you must be here to look for contestant Nonosiva," The Huang Mao man did not mind.
On the other hand, Instructor Hamm looked slightly anxious as he walked to Garon's bedside. Behind him were Mia, Aier, and a few other students in the class. They were obviously here to see Garon.
"Instructor," Garon tried to straighten up, but Instructor Hamm pressed him down firmly. He immediately lay back down.
"Rest well. Don't think too much," Hamm patted his shoulder. "You've done well enough. It's time to rest now."
"If I didn't meet you, I could've gotten into the top three," Celine said disdainfully from the side.
Garen ignored him and asked the instructor about the situation after the competition. As expected, not long after they left, the finals had reached the final stage. The top three had indeed been decided. As expected, Merseus was ranked first. Using his Level Three Double Cut Magnetic Field Line Technique, he almost instantly defeated Barry, who was ranked second. Then, it was Caus, who was ranked third. This guy knew his own limits and did not challenge Merseus, who was ranked first. Thus, the names were decided.
The spectators at the judges' seats decided to accept the three elite students on the spot and enter the inner courtyard to choose their training path.
"The closing ceremony of the finals is happening now. Many people have left early, so we came to see you first," Mia said with a smile. "Nono, you're really in the limelight this time. You actually managed to rush to such a big name. The class only managed to get into ninth place because of you."
"We are relieved to see that you are fine." Instructor Hamm said with a chuckle, "Miya is right. The academy will give out a prize for the ninth place. Because your strength has been judged by the judges to be on par with the fourth place, although you won't receive the same treatment as the fourth place, the prize will still be given out according to the fourth place. This is good news."
"How many?" When Garon heard about the reward, he was immediately energized. Currently, he was in dire need of money. The main reason was that the White Peacock Stones needed to cultivate the Peacock Technique were too expensive. This thing required more and more money as it accumulated. If it required so much money now, it would probably be more in the future. If it didn't have enough change, it wouldn't be enough in the future.
Hamm and the others didn't care. They all knew that Nono's family wasn't very well off, so it was normal for them to be nervous about the bonus.
"Eighty thousand!" Ham grinned, revealing his snow-white teeth.
Eighty thousand was more than a year's worth of income for an average family, or even more. But now, just because of a single competition, the fourth place was given so much prize money.
Garon felt as if a huge stone had been smashed in his heart. This sum of money just happened to solve his urgent need. Next, the third batch of White Peacock Stones was settled.
However, it wasn't worth it to directly use it to buy Peacock Stones. The high-energy fuel powder that he extracted could be sold under a cover. He only needed a deceptive conversion facility. This eighty thousand could be used to purchase a small laboratory as a cover. It should be able to clean up the fuel powder and sell it directly.
At this moment, many thoughts were running through Garon's mind. Although he was talking to Hamm, Mia, and Aier, he was also responding to the enthusiastic questions and consolations from his classmates. But what he was really concerned about now was how he could clean up the high-energy fuel powder in his hands.
He had checked the information before. On the market, the high-energy fuel powder in his hands, even if it wasn't purified, was worth one hundred and twenty thousand utility points per kilogram. Of course, this was the retail price. If he sold it in batches, it should be cheaper. But even if it was one hundred thousand utility points per kilogram, he could still recover the cost in an instant.
Garon carefully calculated the amount of White Peacock Stone powder he absorbed from the beginning until now. The first batch of stone powder was bought with one thousand utility points. The remaining powder was estimated to be at least two kilograms. It was filled to the brim with a bottle. The density of the powder was very high, very heavy, and not light. The second batch was the remaining powder that he had absorbed this time. It was close to twenty kilograms, and he had invested more than ten thousand utility points.
This meant that if the purity level could reach the standard, then the investment of one thousand utility points could be exchanged for at least two hundred thousand utility points. This was a true ratio of one to two hundred!
"The problem now is how to solve this cover problem. With such high profits, there will definitely be people who will be jealous of my investigation skills. How do I cover it? "Garon was not familiar with these methods.
Instructor Hamm and the others stayed for a short while before leaving, allowing Celine and Garon to get sufficient rest.
Celine closed her eyes to rest, while Garon carefully considered the solution to this problem. If there were no accidents, the source of income would fall on the high-energy fuel powder.
"Hey, Celine," Garon glanced at the green-haired girl beside him.
"What?" This girl suddenly opened her eyes, giving off the feeling of a giant python that had just woken up. For a girl to be able to give off such a feeling, it was obviously due to the nature of her Willpower that she cultivated.
"Generally speaking, if you get a batch of chemical raw materials of unknown origin, how do you deal with them and exchange them for money?" Garon asked directly, not hiding anything. After all, no one else could learn the refining technique, because the Living Secret Technique could only be practiced by people who had seeds. In this world, other than him, no one else could have a second Hellfrost Peacock Technique seed. Even if this batch of powder was discovered and stolen, he could easily refine more powder.
"Chemical raw materials of unknown origin?" Celine was a little confused, not knowing why the topic had suddenly jumped to this. She thought about it again, it must be that Nonosiva had gotten a batch of this stuff and wanted to exchange them for money.
However, she liked Garon, plus she wanted to ask him for advice in the future.
"You can give it to me directly. If the amount is not enough, I can directly exchange it for Universal Points. You don't have to worry about the follow-up trouble," she said straightforwardly.
"How do you deal with it?" Garon continued to ask.
"I have a friend who specializes in dealing with all kinds of contraband goods of unknown origin. He has a way to deal with it. Why? You have some goods on hand that you want to deal with? " Celine looked at Garon in surprise. From her point of view, this guy's background was clean and there was nothing dirty about him, but he actually came into contact with things like this.
"What if I can have a long-term source of these goods of unknown origin?" Garon asked.
"If that's the case …" Celine frowned, "I'm not interested in these things, but if you really want to deal with this, I can introduce you to someone. He's very familiar with these things, so this small matter of yours is nothing to him. "
She glanced at Garon, "The origin of the goods can't be too troublesome, you have to promise me about this."
"No problem," Garon nodded.
"Then there's no problem. I'll give you a number, you can contact him directly, I'll let him know in advance, "Celine nodded.
Garon continued to ask about these things, and when he asked about the expenses of a private laboratory, Celine's face was immediately filled with surprise.
"This thing can cost up to tens of millions or even hundreds of millions, but if it's small, it can be counted as a laboratory even if it's just a few thousand or tens of thousands. It all depends on the person. When it comes to a laboratory, no matter how good your equipment is, if the person isn't good, there won't be any good results. If the person is good, even normal equipment can produce great results."
Suddenly, she looked at Garon from head to toe.
"You … Don't tell me you've come up with some new technology yourself?"
These young people who could be called geniuses were not easy to deal with, especially the children of big families like Celine. Under the influence of what she saw and heard, her mind reacted very quickly. Once a few clues were connected, she immediately came up with a guess, and it was a guess that was closest to the truth.
Garon had nothing to hide.
"It's indeed a new technology. The things I've come up with are quite valuable, but I don't think you'll be interested in them. "
"What level?" Celine was slightly interested.
"Do you want to invest?" Garon smiled. "If you solve the problem of the channel, I'll give you ten percent of the shares. Consider it a gift for free. You don't have to do anything usually, but you can help me out when it's important."
Celine looked at him from head to toe seriously.
"Alright, this is a blatant bribe to pull strings!"
Garon was very calm. He knew that it would be very troublesome if he wanted to monopolize it. It was impossible to hide such a large flow of funds from the rich and powerful. It was definitely a crime for a normal person like him to have such a strong extraction technology. Instead of being forced to look for trouble later, he might as well pull strings to cover it up from the beginning.
If that was the case, then rich and powerful children like Celine would be more ideal candidates to rope in. No one would complain about having too much money. Even if Celine didn't care about this aspect, it would naturally be the same.
"How much will the income be?" Celine lowered her head and thought for a while, then looked up and asked. "To be honest, I really want to be friends with you. I'm afraid that you'll hide it from me when you teach me."
"It should be around a hundred thousand a month." Garon didn't dare to say too much, and only made a conservative estimate.
"A hundred thousand points a month … Barely. Count me in." Celine thought for a while and nodded. If one looked at it from another perspective, this amount of income was indeed just a small business to him. With his position, he could use his own funds from his family alone, and it was already more than a million a year. If Garon's income was a hundred thousand a month, the ten percent of the shares given to him would only be ten or twenty thousand a month. It could be considered as pocket money.
"The income for you is a hundred thousand." Garon knew that she had made a mistake.
“！？”
Celine was stunned. She stared at Garon in slight disbelief.
