Chapter 1248: Chapter 1108-1109: Business Matters – No Need to Pay Attention (Double-Length Chapter)_3

First, they showed their intention to acquire, but when the other party refused, they began to exert pressure from all sides.

Ping’an barely held up under the pressure, which wasn’t surprising—after all, they are a local power.

Then Hongyun began a series of probes.

This process is relatively important as it can effectively assess the opponent’s sensitivity, execution, and real strength.

Unfortunately, Qu Jianlei and his group have been absent from Shanshui Small Building for a long time, causing some minor issues for Ping’an in various aspects.

Thus, things developed to this point, and one could only say "Hongyun" didn’t have any luck this time.

Of course, the short Supreme would not explain it in detail; his purpose was to clear their own responsibility as much as possible.

After listening to the explanation, Bentley coldly snorted, "In the future, it seems we need to eliminate the roots, can’t be too kind."

The short Supreme heard this, and the corner of his mouth twitched, thinking, does your way of doing things relate to kindness?

Bentley glanced at him and spoke indifferently, "Fifty billion is possible, but I want the Supreme’s head. Is there a problem?"

"Of course, no problem," a flash of killing intent passed in the short Supreme’s eyes, "Even if you didn’t mention it, we wouldn’t let him go!"

Hongyun suffered such heavy losses; how could they let the one who started it off the hook?

"Then it’s settled," Bentley nodded slightly and pointed at Nalisha.

"Before you fulfill your promise, the treatment for this Supreme’s injury... will be carefully handled by Ping’an Trading Group."

Upon hearing this, the short Supreme was taken aback; the other party was obviously treating Nalisha as a hostage!

Careful care wasn’t an issue, but once this news spread, could Hongyun still hold its head high?

He hesitated for a moment before saying, "As for the treatment effect, the group also has the Imperial top medical team."

"Nalisha’s injury is serious this time; slight negligence in treatment could affect future recovery, can you..."

"No!" Bentley unequivocally stated, "Moreover, her medical care, lodging, and related costs, you have to pay!"

This set of procedures, he learned from Nutrient Injection—without high fees, you don’t leave a deep impression.

However, after hearing this, the short Supreme’s face changed instantly, seemingly realizing something.

He hesitated a moment before speaking, "Is this charging... reasonable?"

"It seems you understand this too," Bentley spoke leisurely.

"Certainly reasonable, I can guarantee... it matches Nalisha Supreme’s status."

"Matches the status..." the short Supreme’s mouth twitched; he understood perfectly well that this meant a high price.

And he’s well aware that daring to treat a Supreme this way indicates they are in the same circle.

In fact, such hostage-taking and extortion could only be done by specific groups.

Even if others wanted to imitate, they might not dare to.

So he smiled bitterly and said, "It seems you’re not outsiders, would you mind revealing your name?"

Bentley promptly answered, "If you can capture me, you’ll get to know everything you want!"

—If you can’t capture me alive, then you’d better keep silent!

The short Supreme certainly understood, he reluctantly shook his head, "This is really... forget it, may as well leave it to you."

They are indeed businessmen; once they realize the situation, they can decisively make choices.

The following matters needed no further discussion, as both sides withdrew separately.

Once the payment was delivered, it was a matter for a month later.

However, the Supreme’s head from Dukes remained elusive—the person had disappeared before Hongyun dealt with Ping’an.

Bentley and the five did not continue to wait, they took the silver notes and left without delay.

Nalisha was left to recuperate at Ping’an, and Jilt indicated that those exorbitant fees would be sent to Shanshui Small Building later.

He’s not worried Hongyun would come to rescue—if there’s any intention to rescue, they’d have to deal with our Supremes first!

Mainly those fees weren’t Ping’an’s to take; he had to position himself correctly.

Bentley didn’t care about too much, "You handle it as you see fit."

Before leaving, he specifically advised Xiao Moshan, "In future, contact us more if there’s anything, don’t always think about carrying it yourself."

To be honest, he quite appreciated Xiao Moshan’s sense of responsibility, but necessary words had to be pointed out.

But Xiao Moshan was concerned about something else, "Old Ben, Hongyun’s people say Silver Fir might be non-living entities, should we warn them?"

You’re the one who wants to inquire, Bentley knew the other’s curiosity well and replied indifferently, "Ignore it."

"Oh," Xiao Moshan nodded, a hint of confusion in his eyes...

The next stop for everyone was Paradise Star.

At a distance of five million kilometers from Paradise Star, Zi Jiu Immortal contacted Xiang Xue, indicating his imminent arrival.

In the next moment, everyone appeared in Yunwu Mountain lodge.

Xiang Xue, after being notified, had already arrived at the Perception Transmission Array Disc, rushing over at the first moment.

The two women met, and upon seeing each other, they embraced with a burst of screams, as they hadn’t met for many years.

Silver Fir watched, shaking his head discreetly; seemingly, the way female old friends express their reunion isn’t much different between Blue Star and the Imperial.

Next, Fourth Master and Youyou also appeared—they were actually on Paradise Star.

Fourth Master was genuinely shocked upon discovering Bentley’s advancement.

He and Youyou had been together for so long, although they hadn’t ended up together, they basically shared everything.

So he could largely determine what kind of foundation Bentley had—certainly, he wouldn’t go out spreading rumors.
