Yun Meng Xin's words caused Li Xiao Xue to be unable to remain calm. She had originally felt that Yun Meng Xin's proposal was unfair, but thinking about her situation, as well as the massive benefits she could get from working with Yun Meng Xin, she agreed. Only now did she realise that Yun Meng Xin had given her such a great deal.
"I won't take back what I just said. Xiao Xue, you know that the bet between me and my father will end in 2 years. After 2 years, money won't be important to me anymore. "Yun Meng Xin said.
"But do you know how much wealth you're giving up?" Li Xiao Xue hurriedly said. To her and the Li family, this was a great deal. However, she couldn't understand why Yun Meng Xin would be like this. She shouldn't be such a stupid woman.
"In 2 years, if I win, I'll have enough money to rival the Yun family financial group, enough for me to spend for the rest of my life. If I lose … what's the point of having 10 times as much wealth? Wealth is limitless, and so is a person's desires. I won't allow myself to become a slave to wealth. 2 years is more than enough. Consider the rest a gift from me to Xiao Xue. " Yun Meng Xin smiled, "Xiao Xue, you're so smart, yet you accepted my 50/50 split. I know why you agreed so easily, but I'll remember all of this."
Li Xiao Xue stared in shock, her expression becoming complicated. She slowly said, "Meng Xin, your gift is simply too great. Although we haven't even started yet, I'm sure that this is the most precious gift I've ever received in my life. The Deed in your hands has allowed me to rethink the Li family's development in the Mystic Moon world. It's just that … Meng Xin, there are some things that I need to say. "
"Xiao Xue, please speak." Yun Meng Xin said gently.
Li Xiao Xue nodded, "Your father is the leader of the Yun family financial group, and according to the data I have, your father's personal wealth is around $160 billion. This is an astronomical figure. Moreover, according to the information I've heard, the bet between you and your father was for you to have wealth equal to the Yun family financial group within 2 years, not his personal wealth. As the daughter of the Yun family, do you know how much the Yun family financial group has? "
Yun Meng Xin shook her head.
Li Xiao Xue did not find it strange. The Yun family's businesses were spread throughout the whole of Hua Xia, penetrating into countless industries. As for the total amount of assets, even the higher-ups might not know. Yun Meng Xin had never interfered with the Yun family's matters since she was young, so it was normal that she did not know. She slowly stretched out five fingers. "It's 500 billion. This was the current total value of the Yun Financial Group. Taking a hundred steps back, even if the Yun family did not develop in the next two years and the total assets did not change, you would still have to earn at least five hundred billion within two years to surpass your father. Putting aside the reputation of being on par with the Yun family, do you really have the confidence to earn 500 billion within two years? "
Yun Meng Xin: "..."
"Even if it's the world's largest corporation with businesses in every corner of the world, it would be extremely difficult to make a net profit of 500 billion in two years. What's more, Meng Xin, you're all alone right now. Apart from the Title Deed, you don't have anything else to rely on. The initial capital was only 900 million. Do you know how many years it took for your Yun Family and our Li Family to accumulate and settle to the scale we have today? " Li Xiao Xue paused for a moment before continuing, "I believe that you will be able to control the most golden positions in this world. For the sake of our Li family, I will do my best. However, the first two years will be the two years where you will have the least profits. Even if we can occupy a large number of golden positions in the Royal City in half a year, and everything goes smoothly, the profits you will receive in these two years will not be more than 5 billion. Compared to the 500 billion that you need … there is too much of a difference. Moreover, all of our Li family's businesses in this world will have negative profits in the first two years. Only in 2 or 3 years will we be able to understand the Forgotten Continent's needs and expand the Li family's businesses to every corner of the Forgotten Continent. When that time comes, we will be able to quickly accumulate our wealth. "
"I … know all of this," Yun Meng Xin said softly. Yun Meng Xin said softly. She knew that with just the title deed in her hands and the cooperation with Li Xiao Xue, even if everything went smoothly, it would only be a drop in the bucket. The Yun family was not an ordinary noble family. They were the second-ranked financial group in all of Hua Xia! It was just that she had never thought that she would need such an astronomical figure as 500 billion. However, this did not make her feel sad, because in her heart, she already had more than 500 billion … and that was her friends who were willing to fight by her side. They were the ones who filled her dark world with hope and light. For herself, for them, for the miracles that they had created together, even if her goal was higher than the heavens, she could not despair or give up. Instead, she had to raise her head and smile as she faced it, just like what Ling Tian had said …
"I believe in the 'miracles' that Ling Tian spoke of. Miracles are always bestowed upon the most sincere and hardworking people," Yun Meng Xin said as she looked into Li Xiao Xue's eyes.
After saying so much, Li Xiao Xue did not see any darkness in Yun Meng Xin's body. Her heartstrings were deeply touched, and she extended her hand towards Yun Meng Xin, "I also believe that a 'genius' like Ling Tian will bring you miracles. I'll wait and see … and at the same time, let us work hard together. "
Two delicate hands that were like ice and snow gently shook each other's hands.
Even if it was the two involved, they would not have thought that this would be the beginning of another legend.
… …
Yun Meng Xin had looked for Li Xiao Xue to cooperate because she had no other choice. This was her only choice. She would provide the Li family with the perfect location that they had always dreamed of, and thus use the Li family's wealth, manpower, and resources to quickly develop. Just like Li Xiao Xue had said, relying on this to accumulate wealth, although she would be able to obtain wealth that ordinary people would not be able to obtain in their entire lives, it was still far from her goal …
If she could obtain the temporary Title Deed for the Azure Dragon Plaza West Street, then obtaining the permanent Title Deed wouldn't be difficult. Ling Tian found the Azure Dragon City, and quickly obtained the permanent Title Deed. The money spent was also within an acceptable range. Yun Meng Xin also completely gave up on her battle profession, and began to plan together with Li Xiao Xue. Of course, half of the profits from the Azure Dragon Plaza West Street would go to Yun Meng Xin. Li Xiao Xue had already decided that that place would be the Li family's starting point and temporary core in the Mystic Moon world. A few days later, the Li family's signboard had been placed on that piece of land, and skyscrapers began to rise from the ground … In the virtual world, as long as one had enough money, it would only take a short amount of time to build a building. Skyscrapers with tens of floors would only take a week. This was one of the biggest advantages of the virtual world.
At the same time, as the average player's level surpassed LV20, more and more Guild Creation Tokens appeared. On the Guild Rankings, there was finally no longer just the name 'Heart's Dreams', but the Yan Huang Alliance's name had also appeared. However, unlike before, the Yan Huang Alliance's name had appeared in second place, and was suppressed by Heart's Dreams. Three days later, the Skyfall Dynasty's name appeared in third place. Five days later, the Golden Age Alliance's name appeared in fourth place.
After giving the Permanent Deed to Yun Meng Xin, Ling Tian did not appear in the Azure Dragon City again, and instead spent all of his time on the way to the Vermillion Bird City. When he reached the southern part of the Forgotten Continent, he could clearly feel the heat in the air. The further south he went, the higher the average temperature became.
8 days later, the Vermillion Bird City finally appeared in front of him.
From afar, no matter if it was the Vermillion Bird City's city gates or the eye-catching buildings, none of them looked as luxurious or luxurious as the Azure Dragon City. However, it did not lack the grandeur of a main city.
"I'm finally here!"
From the time Xi Ling had ignited her Flames of Life to when he had decided to come, it had taken him more than 20 days. If it wasn't for the Fairy Clan's Ying Xue's Nature's Ring accidentally sending him south, it would have taken him another 10 days or even half a month.
"Xi Ling, hang in there, I'll definitely find the Vermillion Bird!"
Ling Chen muttered to himself as he rushed towards the Vermillion Bird City's gates. The guards at the gates did not stop him, and Ling Chen entered unimpeded.
The Vermillion Bird City's streets were not as bustling and luxurious as the Azure Dragon City's, and there were very few people on the streets. Evidently, players did not have the ability to enter the Vermillion Bird City. Ling Chen believed that he was definitely the first player to enter the Vermillion Bird City. Another reason was that the Vermillion Bird City's climate was not as comfortable as the Azure Dragon City's, and the air was hot and dry. Not long after Ling Chen walked through the city, his body began to sweat. However, it was normal for a main city in the south to have such a climate.
"Hoh, young adventurer, looking at your clothes and sweaty body, you must be new here. If you're feeling hot, go buy a few bowls of ice porridge. I'm sure you'll feel much better after drinking it." A middle-aged aunty said as she smiled at him.
Ice porridge? Ling Chen nodded towards the aunty, "I'm indeed new here, thank you for your reminder."
"You're welcome. May the Moon Deities bless you."
Seeing that the aunty was not panting or sweating, it was likely that she had already gotten used to the weather here.
Opening up the map, Ling Chen could clearly see the distribution of the Vermillion Bird City's streets. The Mayor's residence was at the centre of the city, and the central business district was slightly north of the centre. Ling Chen only had a slight understanding of these things. He only had one goal in coming to the Vermillion Bird City – to find the Vermillion Bird. Qi Yue had warned him not to ask the Vermillion Bird City's residents or the Mayor about the Vermillion Bird's whereabouts, or else he would easily anger them. The Vermillion Bird City was named after the Vermillion Bird. As the Vermillion Bird City's guardian beast, the Vermillion Bird held an extremely high position in the hearts of the Vermillion Bird City's residents.
