It would have been fine if Ding Ning had only come to raise money alone and did not involve Jiumingtang. However, the problem now was that the thinking structure had obviously affected everyone's perception of Jiumingtang.
Some businessmen who might have supported Jiumingtang might not be able to invest again because of the investment thinking structure.
After all, a thinking structure was not a small matter and required a lot of money.
Baijun Castle glanced at his master. Lu Sheng's face was expressionless, as if he did not care at all.
He was not sure if he was tolerating it or if he really did not care. But now, he could clearly feel that the way the surrounding guests looked at him and his group had changed.
Many of these gazes were looking at them as if they were watching a joke. It was obvious that an unknown Jiumingtang compared to a formal thinking structure was the difference between a formal key university and a fly-by-night university.
Baijun Castle had not been learning from Lu Sheng for a long time, but he had a lot of experience. Unlike other children, he had traveled to the outside world and was the one who knew how powerful Lu Sheng was.
That was why he was not satisfied.
At this moment, Ding Ning began to introduce the two young people who had just entered the hall.
The two young people seemed to be the children of the businessmen who were present. They walked out of the crowd and stood beside Ding Ning politely.
"Next. I would like to introduce two of my disciples. "Ding Ning smiled and pointed at the young boy and girl beside him.
"The two of them are my official disciples when I officially became a Telekinesis two years ago. One of them is called Zhou Xiang, and the other is Zhou Mingxiang. I'm sure many of you have seen them before."
"So they are the two children of the Zhou family. I have watched them grow up. I didn't expect them." Bai Anmin smiled and said.
"I didn't expect the Zhou family to become friends with Mr. Ding so early. I was wondering why Mr. Ding was willing to come here to start a thinking structure. So there is such a layer of reason."
A beautiful lady adorned with jewels said with a smile.
"That's part of the reason. Actually, at the beginning, I was given the freedom to choose a few places, and I hesitated for a long time …" Ding Ning smiled and chatted with the people around him.
Seeing that more and more people had gathered, some of them just watched from afar and didn't go over.
However, there were some people who did not care about their pride. There were many businessmen who were thick-skinned. They only knew that this was a rare opportunity, and being able to form a relationship with a Psychic was the best thing that could happen to them.
As for losing face, it was nothing.
After a while, Ding Ning was surrounded by four to five people. The people outside couldn't squeeze in at all.
On this side, there was a hubbub of voices, but on Lu Sheng's side, there were very few people.
Originally, there might have been quite a number of people who came to inquire about his slimming class, but now that the limelight of the Thinking Construct had been overshadowed, everyone wanted to establish a relationship with Ding Ning, the Telekinesis, in time.
"How snobbish. Such a large group of people aren't ashamed at all, surrounding him as if they're eating something. "Bai Anyi couldn't help but mock.
Baijun Castle looked at Lu Sheng's expression.
"Teacher, do you want to … show us some of your skills?" This was originally a party specially organized by the Bai family for Teacher Wang, but now the limelight had been stolen by Ding Ning, the Telekinesis.
People like them who practiced martial arts to keep fit were the most energetic. Now that they were being trampled on, if they didn't show some colors, others would really think that the Jiumingtang was a pushover?
Bai Juncheng had already made up his mind to make a scene.
Lu Sheng looked at Ding Ning's side, feeling disinterested. He didn't care about stealing the limelight at all.
As long as he could get his hands on 30 million, the rest didn't matter. Because he didn't have any intention of starting a large-scale chain organization, he didn't feel anything about stealing the limelight.
"Don't worry about it. Since we can raise the money, we don't need to have a conflict with them. They didn't provoke us, "Lu Sheng said casually.
"Big Brother, is Telekinesis very strong?" Bai Anyi asked softly.
Baijun Castle saw that everyone was looking at him. He knew that everyone might not know, so he nodded and affirmed.
"It's very strong, but I haven't seen it before. I've only heard people say that true Telekinesis is very strong. However, I want to put on the exoskeleton armor, An Yi and I should … "
"No …" A voice suddenly interrupted Baijun Castle.
They looked up and saw that it was Bai Anmin.
The head of the Bai family was frowning and staring at his two sons.
"I'm warning you, don't cause any trouble. The power of Telekinesis is beyond your imagination! Don't even think about causing trouble! "
"Dad, we just can't stand it!" Baijun Castle said coldly.
"The country has official subsidies for Telekinesis. It's equivalent to the rank of Lieutenant Colonel! There are also various tax deductions and other systems. It's not that I'm looking down on you, but Jiumingtang isn't on the same level as a thinking organization, "Bai Anmin said in a low voice.
"Do you know the minimum requirement for Telekinesis?" He asked softly.
Baijun Castle and Bai Anyi shook their heads, but they still looked unconvinced.
"The minimum requirement is to be able to operate a small warship alone," Bai Anmin said in a low voice.
"That's just a technical requirement," Bai Anyi said nonchalantly.
"A warship weighs at least 10 tons. It's a small warship that can be piloted by a single person, similar to a fighter jet. However, think about it. What would happen if Telekinesis, which can operate a 10-ton warship, were to operate some extremely small flying devices? "Bai Anmin said coldly.
As soon as he said that, everyone was stunned.
Baijun Castle's expression immediately changed.
If it was changed to an extremely small metal flying device, the lethality of Telekinesis would increase exponentially.
Using the strength to operate a warship to operate a small metal flying device …
"So, don't be impulsive," Bai Anmin said to his son, but he was also saying it to Lu Sheng.
Lu Sheng understood what he meant.
He felt strange. He had never planned to act impulsively. Why were the Bai father and son so nervous?
Bai Anmin stayed for a while and then left.
Halfway through the gathering, Bai Anmin secretly handed the 30 million check to Baijun Castle and asked him to pass it to Lu Sheng.
Lu Sheng also handed over the IOU that he had written in advance. After that, he was too lazy to care about anything else and was ready to leave.
Suddenly, a good friend of Baijun Castle called him over and said a few words. After returning, Baijun Castle's expression was not good.
He didn't say anything, and Lu Sheng didn't ask. He stood up and was about to leave with his disciple.
"Teacher, I have something to take care of at home. Do you want me to go back with you …" Baijun Castle whispered to Lu Sheng.
"What's wrong?" Lu Sheng saw that there was something wrong with him. He just didn't say anything.
"It's nothing, teacher. Don't worry. It's just a small problem. I'll take care of it soon," Baijun Castle said seriously.
"Are you sure?" Lu Sheng asked again.
"I'm sure," Baijun Castle said with certainty.
Lu Sheng nodded and was about to get up and walk towards the door.
Suddenly, a soft scream came from the corner of the second floor. It seemed like someone was arguing there. They might even have gotten into a fight.
Lu Sheng turned his gaze and looked at the second floor.
"What's going on?" He looked at Baijun Castle's expression again. It was obvious that he knew something but didn't say anything.
"Let's go take a look." Lu Sheng didn't say anything else. He turned and went straight to the second floor.
Bai Anyi and Wei Handong followed closely behind. All of them were eager to give it a try. No matter who it was that had trained hard for several months, they all wanted to prove their abilities and results in such an occasion.
"Teacher!" Baijun Castle didn't have time to stop them. He hurriedly followed, but it was too late.
Lu Sheng led his people up to the second floor.
At the staircase of the second floor, Bai Anmin and Zhou Ying, the head of the Zhou Family, stood facing each other.
Zhou Ying looked proud. He was gently waving a fan in his hand. Behind him stood Ding Ning and the two children of the Zhou Family. Even a small half of the guests stood behind them.
Other than those who were neutral, there were only a few people standing beside Bai Anmin.
This caused Bai Anmin to seem even more powerless.
Bai Anmin's face was ashen. He looked extremely embarrassed. It was unknown what kind of trouble he had encountered.
"Brother Bai, since Mr. Ding has taken a liking to that piece of land, it's reasonable for us to buy it from you according to the market price. Who are you trying to show that you won't back down?" Zhou Ying smiled and pointed out.
Bai Anmin would never have imagined that this Ding Ning was actually a trump card that the Zhou Family had specially called over to deal with him.
He had spent more than a billion on his hands to invest in a piece of land near the city with a few business partners.
Now that the real estate market was in a slump, investing in land was naturally not very profitable. However, what Bai Anmin cared about was not the land but the hidden pyrolyte mine beneath it.
Pyrolyte was one of the most commonly used synthetic metals in the Interstellar Era. It was often used to protect against cosmic rays and high-energy radiation.
It was expensive and produced in limited quantities.
From the looks of it, the Zhou Family had probably received the news as well. It was unknown how they had found out. Right now, they were using Ding Ning's influence to force him to sell the land.
Moreover, from the looks of it, Ding Ning clearly knew the inside story as well.
"Brother Zhou's words make sense. It's just that our Bai Family has already invested almost all of our capital into this piece of land. Now that everything else has been laid out, if you sell it at the original price, wouldn't all of our preparations be for naught? This … isn't it a little unreasonable? "Bai Anmin forced a smile and said in a low voice.
"It's indeed a little unreasonable …" Ding Ning said with a smile.
"How about this, we'll buy your piece of land at a premium of 130% of the market price. To be honest, I really like that piece of land. Please part with it, Patriarch Bai. "
"I …" A hint of bitterness flashed in Bai Anmin's eyes.
For the sake of that piece of land, he had invested more than 130% of his capital … There were many relationships that couldn't be measured with money.
At this moment, at the side of the staircase, a few people from Jiumingtang strode up the stairs. Their movements were swift and forceful, giving off a sense of aggressiveness.
Lu Sheng took the lead and looked at Bai Anmin the moment he reached the stairs.
Bai Anmin was also stunned. He saw Baijun Castle whispering something to Lu Sheng. His heart sank. He knew that something bad was about to happen.
After Lu Sheng roughly understood the cause and effect, he hinted slightly. Wei Handong, who was behind him, immediately stepped forward and spoke loudly.
"What are you doing, what are you doing? Jiumingtang also has shares in that piece of land. "
"What? Do you guys look like you want to buy the land? With so many people surrounding the Bai Family, Jiumingtang will be the first one who can't stand it. "
Wei Handong said righteously, deciding the nature of the matter first.
