"Sir, you should understand that people like us who do legitimate business can't do things that break the law. After all, society has its own rules. Anyone who tramples on the rules won't get any good feedback."
The man named Hank spoke apologetically and warned Rhode. Ironically, as he spoke, he handed over something that made Rhode speechless.
"If you want to control your subordinates or anyone who doesn't listen to you, I think these are your choices."
Li Ke looked at the things that Hank handed over and couldn't help but laugh out loud.
"Alchemy medicine. A single pill is enough to send a person into a boundless paradise and experience unimaginable glory. Most importantly, its price is so high that anyone, even a beggar, can afford it. As long as the supply is constant, there will be no side effects."
This was the description of a light blue pill, and below it was a line of small words that were deliberately hidden so that people could see it.
"Long-term consumption may have some insignificant side effects, but please believe that this pill won't kill you."
The dignified description couldn't fool Li Ke. He clearly knew that this pill was something that was constantly banned in modern society. He didn't make any big movements. Instead, he smiled and skimmed over the reminder for the buyer and the 'beauty' of this potion. Then, he flipped to the next page. Unfortunately, the next page wasn't anything good either. It was a type of collar that 'can help you solve some unnecessary troubles.' As long as someone tried to break the collar by force, the collar would explode. There was also a matching accessory to control the collar, allowing it to release an electric shock that was' not fatal for a short period of time 'at any time.
Then, more methods to control slaves appeared before Li Ke. These methods were all 'cheap'. They were either plentiful, cheap, or recyclable. But even so, these things were still very expensive. In fact, Li Ke had seen many of these methods in Noxus, but most of them were banned. After all, there were no 'slaves' in Noxus because even slaves could become free people through their own efforts. They could even become military officers.
Of course, this was just a joke. Just like group immunity, it was a joke.
"Ah, I'm really surprised. Hank, I'm curious. Why did you show me these … legal projects when I first arrived here, but you refused to sell me some of the technology and production machines. You didn't even mention it."
Li Ke placed the catalog of works of art that recorded how humans enslaved humans back on the table. Then, he looked at Mr. Hank with interest. Mr. Hank maintained his smile, but he was a little more cautious.
"Of course, the most important thing in our line of work is to understand our customers. With all due respect, you've caused quite a commotion. Now, many people know that there's a rich Noxus people who came here from Shurima. For me, remembering these gentlemen who have the potential to cooperate with us is my most basic specialty. "
Noxus people would naturally buy a lot of things when they came here. After all, the wealth that was plundered had to be spent somewhere, right? Moreover, how to effectively control subordinates and slaves sounded like something that Noxus people cared about.
Li Ke took a sip of black tea and agreed with this statement.
"Then it seems like you don't know me well enough."
He shook his teacup slightly to express his dissatisfaction. After all, as a Noxus noble who wanted to develop his own territory, it was natural for him to express some dissatisfaction when he was rejected. But even so, he still had murderous intentions.
"But we can deepen our understanding through cooperation … And like I said, Mr. Li Ke, we only do legal business. Although there aren't any rules that prohibit us from exporting our precious technology, as a proud citizen of Pi City, I don't want our technology to fall into the hands of people who don't know anything. They will trample our pride and civilization under their feet … I don't mean to offend you, sir, but countless facts have told us that other than the citizens of Pi City, no one else understands Hex technology better than us. "
Is that so? Technology that could allow people to live a happy life was considered illegal and was boycotted by the entire Pi City. However, enslaving others, weapons of mass destruction, and even polluting weapons were all legal goods. Even slaves could be sold openly under another name and in a different way. Even if the technology was insignificant and completely outdated, it was still the same.
That would be a joke for the rest of one's life.
Li Ke put down the teacup and made an expression of sudden realization. Then, he smiled and reached out his hand to Huck. When he held Huck's hand, he said the words that Huck wanted to hear.
"Ah, I understand now. After all, there's nothing new under the sun, isn't there? I don't think there's a need for me to repeat something that is destined to fail. "
It was the same even in another world.
Ah, this Noxus brat has finally given up on his unrealistic fantasy?
Thinking of this, Huck couldn't help but reveal a sincere and brilliant smile.
"Of course, sir. That's a wise decision."
Both of them smiled at each other. Li Ke didn't say anything that would make things awkward. Instead, he asked if the Trade Association could provide him with a large amount of cotton-padded clothes and equipment that could resist the cold. This request was accepted by the smiling Hank. After all, this was a huge order. Even if their Trade Association couldn't handle it, he could contact the family head and increase their profits through transactions.
After all, Li Ke had given them too much.
Thirty thousand sets of large cold-resistant cotton-padded clothes, hundreds of tons of cloth and cotton, and they were all paid in gold. No one could refuse this kind of legal business. And through the amount of gold Li Ke had, Hank wasn't afraid that Li Ke couldn't afford it. After Li Ke requested to buy some ships to transport these goods, Hank even promised to give Li Ke some internal benefits, such as a free shipping certificate to a small port in Piltwof.
But this kind of business obviously couldn't be negotiated in a short time, so after Hank enthusiastically suggested that Li Ke find some famous lawyers, the deal between them was temporarily put on hold. Li Ke also left with Sarah.
Then …
"Please help me tell Gray Lady that the Noxus people named Li Ke is also a hyena who has ulterior motives for Hex Technology!"
This was what Hank said to his family's spy after receiving Li Ke.
