"But Alan, we really need money right now!" The middle-aged man said.
"No, Dad!! The redoubt is my partner! It took me a lot of effort to get it to move! You can't sell it! "Alan said loudly.
"You made this thing?" His father asked.
"Yes!! I beg you, don't sell it … "Alan said.
His father frowned and thought for a moment, then sighed and said, "Alright, I'll think of another way. Let's find the lawnmower first. Hans wants to buy it for five dollars. I can use the money to buy some … "Before he could finish his sentence, he saw the lawnmower on the leg of the redoubt. He was stunned.
"Oh my god … Alan! Do you know that you made us lose 5 USD just by messing around? I can only make this much if I work in town for a whole day! "His father said with a distressed face.
"I'm sorry, Dad … I'll think of something …" Alan said guiltily.
"What can you think of? Just don't make trouble for me … "His father shook his head and turned to leave.
"Are you short of money?" The redoubt suddenly asked. "I also need a lot of money."
Alan's father suddenly stared at the redoubt as if he had seen a ghost. He pointed at the broken robot with a trembling hand and said, "You! You can really talk!? No! Impossible! You definitely didn't make this thing!! Alan! Tell me the truth, where did you find this thing!? "
"I picked it up … It was the meteor from that day …" Alan lowered his head and said softly.
"Then what are you?" His father pointed at the redoubt and asked in horror.
The redoubt looked at him and said, "You don't need to know what I am, but you need to know two things. First, I'm the guardian of humanity. Second, you guys are lucky to have picked me up. "
His father picked up a pitchfork in horror and said loudly, "I don't care that much, get out of here now! Now!! "
"I won't leave, because if I leave here, my chance of survival will drop to less than 1%," the redoubt said.
"Dad! Please don't chase the redoubt away! It's a good person, and it taught me a lot! "Alan firmly blocked in front of the redoubt.
"If I give you money, will your hostility towards me decrease a little?" The redoubt asked.
"I will not do evil things!" His father's tone softened a little.
"The largest city in Nevada is Las Vegas. This is a good thing for you. However, my current condition is not suitable to enter the casino, but you can take me to the horse race. "The Redoubt said.
"The way you gave me to make money is to gamble? You devil!! Get out of here!! "the father roared.
"It's a gamble when there are wins and losses. For me, this is a 100% win, so it can only be considered as making money." Redoubt said, "I can scan the physical condition of the racehorses and conduct a detailed simulation analysis to determine which horse will win. The accuracy is 100%."
"Why should I believe you?" Father looked at it warily.
"It's only one dollar to start with. Give it to Allen as pocket money." The Redoubt said lightly.
…
New York, Manhattan, a small office building bought by Tang Yu.
In the largest conference room of the office building, there were more than 20 people gathered. These were all high-ranking members of the Hellfire Club. Although they did not have the power of the Chosen One Council led by Edward Bachman, every single one of them was an existence that could shake Wall Street.
Most of them were wrapped in bandages, but they were all superficial wounds and did not affect them much. After taking care of their injuries, the first thing they did was to find Tang Yu. The former leader of the Hellfire Club, White King Edward Bachman, had shot and killed the other members of the Chosen One Council in front of everyone. It was very obvious that he was controlled by Sebastian Shaw, and then he was killed by Shaw's men! If it wasn't for Tang Yu saving them, they would have died there, without a doubt.
However, the purpose of these people coming to find Tang Yu was not for gratitude, but for … benefits! The Hellfire Club was a very powerful organization. Although the structure was loose, the members were all the most powerful people. Under their leadership, the Hellfire Club could be said to be the king of the underground financial industry!
No one wanted to go back to the past, to the era of trembling in the market. The power of the Hellfire Club was like a drug that they could not stop.
Anyone with a discerning eye knew that Sebastian Shaw had killed Edward and taken the position of Black King. He must have a big plan, and no matter what the Hellfire Club was planning, it would not be a small matter. Therefore, these people did not want to be excluded from the core of power. At this time, Tang Yu, who had saved them, was the best bargaining chip.
These people were not stupid. They naturally understood that the reason why Tang Yu had saved them was because he wanted to use their power to stand against Sebastian Shaw! And Tang Yu really did have this power! Therefore, these people came to find Tang Yu to seek the greatest benefits from Tang Yu, in an attempt to keep themselves in the core of the Hellfire Club's power!
Tang Yu sat at the head of the conference room. Behind him stood four or five people in black suits. These people held briefcases in their hands and did not say a word.
Very quickly, the identity of these people was recognized by those with sharp eyes. "I know him! He's Edward Bachman's assistant! James! "
"Yes! The other is Dennis Rockefeller's most outstanding actuary!! "
"That's the CEO of White River Mining! He's also Edward Bachman's trusted aide!! " These people looked at Tang Yu in shock. In just one day after the incident, Tang Yu had taken in so many of Edward's men! Although for Edward Bachman's business empire, these people were just a drop in the ocean, once Tang Yu stabilized his position as the Hellfire Club's White King, he could continue to buy these people and make them work for him!
Tang Yu waved his hand and said calmly, "Alright, stop guessing. The reason I asked you to come is actually very easy to guess. Edward Bachman and Dennis Rockefeller are already dead. Once they die, the power of the Hellfire Club's New York branch will be reshuffled. Therefore, we must stabilize our current sphere of influence. Although it will inevitably shrink a lot, with this network of connections, everything can still be solved. "
A discordant voice suddenly came, only to see one of them stand up and say to Tang Yu, "Although you are now the Hellfire Club's White King, it does not mean that we recognize you! You, the White King, is only recognized by Sebastian Shaw! And you should know what kind of role he is! "
The surrounding people immediately whispered to each other. Traitor, mutants, such words constantly came out from their whispers.
"Do you think I'm here to ask for help?" Tang Yu suddenly asked.
"Is it not?" The person continued to say, "To put it bluntly, no matter how powerful you are, you are just a scientist. Any project you want to start needs financial support! Don't beat around the bush, if you want us to support you, just say it. Sebastian Shaw wants to kill us, we naturally won't be stingy with you, but don't be so arrogant in front of us! "
Tang Yu did not mind, and said in a deep voice, "Indeed, if this continues, the Hellfire Club will become a mutant organization, and the financial and market influence before will be less than ten percent … but …"
"Let me put it another way …" Tang Yu suddenly smiled unusually brightly, he reached out and touched his chin, "Those who follow me will prosper, those who oppose me … die!"
