She looked at Chu Xingyun in admiration. Although Bai Bing was not inferior to Chu Xingyun in terms of intelligence, the gap between the two of them was too big in terms of experience and experience. It was like the difference between heaven and earth.
Bai Bing looked seriously at Chu Xingyun and said sincerely, "Big Brother Chu, it's better for you to take charge of the overall situation. I'm still too far away. I can't bear such a heavy burden."
Chu Xingyun looked calmly at Bai Bing and said, "No … No, you can only take charge of this matter."
Bai Bing looked blankly at Chu Xingyun and said, "Why? You are clearly the most suitable person to take charge of this matter. Why do you want to leave it to me? I'm still far from it. The most important thing for me now is to stay by your side and learn. "
Chu Xingyun smiled bitterly and shook his head. He said, "Do you really not know, or are you just pretending not to know? I can't be in the limelight. "
Ah!
Bai Bing was stunned when she heard Chu Xingyun's words.
Bai Bing thought quickly and suddenly thought of something. She looked at Chu Xingyun cautiously and said uncertainly, "Could it be … Could it be because of Shui Liu Xiang?"
Nodding his head, Chu Xingyun revealed a gentle smile as he said in an incomparably gentle voice, "Don't be fooled by Liuxiang's strong and confident appearance. She actually has an inferiority complex."
Chu Xingyun took a deep breath and continued, "Her biggest wish is to have an identity that matches mine and to stand with me as an equal. How can I let her down?"
Bai Bing couldn't help but roll her eyes when she saw Chu Xingyun's gentle expression.
This was the first time she had seen such an infatuated man. Was it worth it?
Come to think of it, ever since Shui Liu Xiang had expressed her feelings for him, Chu Xingyun had faded away.
First, he handed Team Samsara over to Shui Liu Xiang. If he didn't do this, then no matter how strong Shui Liu Xiang was, she wouldn't be as famous as Chu Xingyun.
As a member of the team, Shui Liu Xiang would never be able to stand on the same level as Chu Xingyun. After all … in Team Samsara, Chu Xingyun was the king!
In order to take care of Shui Liu Xiang's feelings, Chu Xingyun transferred the team to Shui Liu Xiang. Moreover, within the team, Chu Xingyun's status was reduced to the lowest. He wasn't even a substitute. He was just a name.
In order to help Shui Liu Xiang build up her reputation, Chu Xingyun rarely even went to the team. This kind of attentiveness and consideration made Bai Bing extremely envious.
Not only that, Chu Xingyun clearly had a lot of skill, but he did his best to hide it. Apart from the members of the team, no one else knew how strong Chu Xingyun was.
Up until now, everyone thought that Gu Man and Shui Liu Xiang were Team Flowing Cloud's two sky supremes. No one knew that even if the two of them worked together, they still wouldn't be Chu Xingyun's opponent.
Let alone the others, just Chu Xingyun's 365 Black Hole Sword Servants were enough to sweep through everything.
In order to fulfill Shui Liu Xiang's willful wish, Chu Xingyun gathered up his beautiful feathers and concealed the resplendent light emitted from his body. He was willing to be ordinary. This was truly too enviable.
Why didn't anyone love her like Chu Xingyun loved Shui Liu Xiang? Bai Bing's heart was really too jealous.
Shaking her head, Bai Bing said, "Big Brother Chu, don't tell me you like strong, independent women?"
Faced with Bai Bing's question, Chu Xingyun was first stunned. Then he smiled bitterly and shook his head. "Don't misunderstand. Liu Xiang wasn't like this in the past. She only became like this because she was disturbed."
After pausing for a moment, Chu Xingyun said seriously, "I don't love her because she's strong. It's because I love her that I love her strength. "
With a gentle smile, Chu Xingyun said in an incomparably gentle voice, "Since I love her, I love everything about her. Not only do I love her strengths, but I also love her weaknesses."
Shaking her head enviously, Bai Bing didn't want to continue being oppressed.
Patting her face, Bai Bing said, "Alright, let's not talk about the two of you. Let's get back to the main topic."
Clearing her throat, Bai Bing said, "Next, let's discuss the bottom line. What are the conditions that we are willing to accept?"
Faced with Bai Bing's question, Chu Xingyun wasn't even interested in discussing. He said directly, "There's no need to discuss the bottom line. There are three conditions."
"First, 100 billion Spirit Stones in cash. There's no room for negotiation.
Second, Sky Cloud Island, the Sky Cloud Workshop on the island, and the 100,000 craftsmen in the workshop will all be handed over to us free of charge.
Third, the military must give priority to purchasing the arrows produced by us. Only after we've finished purchasing the arrows produced by other workshops can we purchase the arrows produced by other workshops. "
Faced with Chu Xingyun's three conditions, Bai Bing was simply dumbfounded.
No matter how bold she was, she wouldn't have dared to propose such crazy conditions.
100 billion Spirit Stones was actually a small matter. After all … the military's annual expenses were measured in trillions.
But Sky Cloud Island was a huge matter.
Sky Cloud Island was incomparably huge. If it was used as a residence, it could house tens of millions of people.
The soil of Sky Cloud Island was rich in refined iron. Thus, there were hundreds of millions of Arrow Bamboo growing on the ground!
Arrow Bamboo was a specialty of Sky Cloud Island. Apart from Sky Cloud Island, Arrow Bamboo couldn't be found anywhere else.
Arrow Bamboo was the best material for producing arrows. The branches of Arrow Bamboo didn't even need to be trimmed. After a simple cut, they could be directly used to make arrow shafts.
The leaves of Arrow Bamboo were thin and extremely tough. They were the best material for making arrow feathers.
Arrow shafts and arrow feathers could be completely provided by Arrow Bamboo. They didn't even need arrowheads.
Because Arrow Bamboo grew in soil rich in refined iron, after absorbing a large amount of refined iron elements, Arrow Bamboo was incomparably tough.
As long as a sharp metal array was engraved on the arrow shafts of Arrow Bamboo, the refined iron contained in the Arrow Bamboo could be stimulated and the sharp metal energy could be stimulated.
Cutting bamboo into arrows and using bamboo leaves as arrow feathers, this way, the production of arrows would be extremely convenient. Whether it was the output or the performance, it would be greatly improved.
However, because the benefits were so great, Bai Bing felt that it was impossible to realize. The military wasn't stupid. How could they give up such a great benefit?
As for the 100,000 craftsmen, Bai Bing didn't care. After all … with her experience, it was difficult for her to understand what these old craftsmen, who had been passed down for countless generations, meant.
In fact, what Chu Xingyun was truly after was precisely these 100,000 craftsmen.
If there weren't those experienced craftsmen, the Gale Sharp Metal Arrows would be fine. But if there were more profound and more complex inventions in the future, who would be able to make them?
In the Universe world, Sky Cloud Island, Sky Cloud Workshop, and Sky Cloud craftsmen were the top existences in the Universe world. They were the only craftsmen who could bear the reputation of being heavenly craftsmen!
If Chu Xingyun had directly set his sights on Sky Cloud craftsmen, it wouldn't have been very likely to succeed.
But now, Chu Xingyun had set his sights on the 100 billion spirit stones and the entire Sky Cloud Island. This was enough to shift his focus.
For the true upper echelons, they didn't care who Sky Cloud Island belonged to or how much money Chu Xingyun made. No matter what, Sky Cloud Island was still human territory.
