Chapter 2528 - 2520: Not Seeking Counsel from the MassesChapter 2528: Chapter 2520: Not Seeking Counsel from the Masses
Feng Jun said this primarily to reassure some people, indicating that he had no interest in those sensitive things.
Secondly, it’s just that... he truly doesn’t need those massive weapons.
Are mushrooms good? Of course, they are, but only within the Earth Realm, where they can become strategic deterrents.
In Tianqin, however, it’s really just ordinary. At best, they can take out a Nascent Soul, but to incapacitate someone in the Emergence Stage is basically a dream. The speed at which the Emergence Stage performs Blink far exceeds the mushroom’s explosion speed; even a prepared Nascent Soul True Immortal might escape.
When Feng Jun was weak, mushrooms might have been useful, but now, ordinary Nascent Souls don’t qualify as his opponents. If he got mushrooms, what could he do with them... intimidate the weak?
But he wouldn’t answer like this. Instead, he laughed and countered with a question, "What do you think the upper limit of strategic weapons should be in a world that can develop warships capable of space jumps?"
Beauty Lin was at a loss for words, sighing after a long pause, "I guess I overthought it... Can you get those strategic weapons?"
"What do you think?" Feng Jun laughed and countered, "I couldn’t even get Huaxia’s massive weapons; is it possible over there?"
Beauty Lin tilted her head, pondered seriously, and answered, "You couldn’t get submarines and warships in Huaxia, but you managed to get an alien space fleet, so... it’s not whether you can get them, but whether you want to, after all, Huaxia is your homeland."
Feng Jun chuckled, "You rate me quite highly, but I advise you all to abandon fantasies. Being half a step ahead is genius, a step ahead is madness... solidifying fundamentals and proceeding step by step is the right path; virtue not matching one’s position is very dangerous."
Beauty Lin remained silent, nodding slowly after a long pause, "Alright, since you’re so direct, I’ll ask directly too: Have you considered the production line for the Life-Extension Elixir?"
"It’s in motion, but it’s impossible to achieve in the short term," Feng Jun replied solemnly, "My plan is... within fifty years, to get this production line. If you pay attention to protecting yourself, or if things go smoothly for me, you should be able to catch up."
Beauty Lin furrowed her brows again, asked boldly, "Then... could you bother to produce some scattered Life-Extension Elixir? Many people are asking for this elixir."
"Haha," Feng Jun laughed meaningfully, then shook his head, "No, because I have my own plan for doing things."
"Not absolutely a no, right?" Beauty Lin looked at him pitifully, "With your ability, you could always get some, more or less... I believe you can do it."
"And then?" Feng Jun looked at her with interest, "Many people need it, who to give it to... who not to give it to?"
"Some people..." Beauty Lin’s words stopped halfway, as she knew what Feng Jun disliked most.
So she changed her approach, "You can sell it at a high price, set quotas, line up, even auction it... the highest bidder wins, that’s always possible, right? Just like Cancer Care Center, which now also has a financial threshold."
The people asking her this question surely won’t have money issues preventing them from buying the elixir.
"Why would I bring this trouble upon myself?" Feng Jun looked at her in surprise, "Do you think I’m short of money now?"
Beauty Lin was at a loss for words again, considering the hundreds of thousands of tons of gold Feng Jun handles, how could he be short of money? But she quickly came up with a smart response, "When you initially established the Cancer Care Center, you weren’t short of money either, right? It’s a social responsibility!"
"Oh, give me a break," Feng Jun impatiently waved his hand, "I’ve fulfilled quite a few social responsibilities. If it’s your immediate family, I might think about helping; for others... don’t even think about it."
"Immediate family?" Beauty Lin’s eyes brightened upon hearing this, given everyone has parents, "What about my grandmother?"
Feng Jun looked at her oddly, and after a long pause, said, "That’s not immediate family... Are you just twisting my words?"
"Please..." Beauty Lin clasped her hands and kept bowing, "Just this once, okay? She raised me single-handedly."
Feng Jun pondered for a moment, then asked, "What about your parents?"
"They are my immediate family!" Beauty Lin replied confidently.
"You do have confidence," Feng Jun laughed, "Just this once? Fine... first prepare a billion Huaxia currency."
Beauty Lin was stunned, her mouth agape, "A billion?"
"What, do you want me to give it to you for free?" Feng Jun looked at her with a strange expression, "Quota is quota, price is price... surely you don’t even understand this?"
"But..." Beauty Lin was a bit frantic, "But you’re really not short of money; I know."
"Indeed, I’m really not short of money," Feng Jun looked at her calmly, "When I couldn’t afford a house, I wished I could tell the real estate company’s boss... you’re just short of money for this one house of mine?"
Beauty Lin was dumbfounded, and after a long pause, she said, "I didn’t expect your opinion on housing policy reform... to be so strong."
"Whether I have an opinion or not doesn’t matter. Just putting yourself in someone else’s shoes," Feng Jun spread his hands. "If you can’t afford a house, then it’s only normal that you can’t afford life extension."
Amidst these overwhelming gains and losses, Beauty Lin was completely disoriented. "Not having a house... won’t kill you."
"It can kill you," Feng Jun replied coldly. "Even if it doesn’t, being a mortgage slave for life... is that really living?"
Beauty Lin took a couple of deep breaths, trying hard to regain her composure. "Real estate companies might not be short of money, considering the land transfer fees. You’re the one who isn’t short of money."
"Land transfer fees... who did they go to?" Feng Jun’s eyes carried a clear mockery, but this topic wasn’t suitable for further discussion. "Ten billion was a one-off for me. Do you know how much Yu Qingzhu is willing to spend?"
"How can I compare to her?" Beauty Lin shook her head, caught between laughter and tears. But then, she was stunned. "You also take money from her?"
"Not just take money," Feng Jun shook his head. "Anyway, if she finds out about the conditions I gave you, she’ll probably make a fuss again."
Honestly speaking, putting aside the goddess aura... maybe even aside from the Profound Yin and Spatial Physique, Yu Qingzhu hasn’t necessarily helped Luohua more than the long-legged beauty standing in front of him.
"Not just take money?" Beauty Lin let her imagination run wild—how would she make a fuss with you?
But the next moment, she still shook her head, casting aside those selfish thoughts, and then spoke solemnly, "To be fair, Elder Yu has made significant contributions to Guojia and deserves appropriate care."
"I’m also very willing to take care," Feng Jun frowned, "It’s just that I have my own plans, and I can’t mess them up."
He said this with confidence. His plans didn’t just focus on self-improvement. After improving, his increased capabilities would allow him to secure more benefits for the Earth Realm.
If he were to busily seek benefits for certain individuals now, it would disrupt the overall plans. Not only would his personal interests suffer, but the whole scenario would also take a hit—if he could enhance his strength a year earlier, set up production lines a year earlier, how many people would benefit?
"Your plans..." Beauty Lin shook her head speechlessly. Can your plans really compare to collective wisdom?
She didn’t say it aloud, but Feng Jun sensed it. He spoke solemnly, "Your world you don’t get, just like the things you consider don’t need to be discussed with me... Major events don’t need group input."
He was speaking from the heart, but Beauty Lin felt an intangible sarcasm, "Major events don’t need group input... Do you think your intelligence can overshadow the masses?"
"I’m not that arrogant," Feng Jun shook his head, then spoke sternly, "But when it comes to obtaining the life-extension elixir, only I understand, and you have no say... In fact, strictly speaking, that thing is called a life potion."
"Have a say..." Beauty Lin shook her head, then gave a bitter smile, "Do you know how many respectable people you’re hurting?"
"I truly don’t know," Feng Jun shook his head. "I have my plans. If someone really gets hurt... consider it growing pains."
The rain from the Rain Prayer Array had unknowingly started to fall, and the view gradually blurred.
"You can leave now," Feng Jun said lightly, "I want to enjoy the rain."
Beauty Lin knew his preferences, so she stood up. "When are you going to Chaoyang?"
"Tomorrow," Feng Jun replied in a deep voice, "a one-stop service... remember that."
Tomorrow is the weekend! Beauty Lin’s mouth twitched slightly, then she nodded, "Alright, I’ll arrange it."
Striding out of Luohua Manor, she grabbed the phone in the car and dialed a number. Her first statement was, "The target indicated that in the W world, there is an ultimate strategic weapon stronger than mushrooms."
"We’ve already read his lips," the other side replied flatly, "Then the rain got heavier... Did he say what the ultimate strategic weapon was?"
"No," Beauty Lin replied succinctly, pausing, then continued, "Tomorrow he is going to Chaoyang to handle the application procedures for a natural village, specifically requesting a one-stop service."
"We observed that," the other side replied, "You agreed too readily... this has already exceeded your authority."
"He didn’t give me a choice," Beauty Lin responded in a deep voice, "I can retract the promise, but the in-app purchase plan will be affected... I can’t bear this responsibility."
"There’s no intention of asking you to retract it, but grassroots work is very difficult... let this be a one-time thing," the other side wasn’t that hard to talk to. The key is... finding someone who can communicate with Feng Jun is challenging. "What was the final outcome of the life-extension elixir discussion?"
"Nothing was agreed upon," Beauty Lin replied in a deep voice, "He has his own plans and a very strong grassroots sentiment... If we don’t follow his plans, he wants us to be ready to endure the growing pains."
The other side was silent for a long while before speaking out, "Five billion, to buy your grandmother’s spot... is that negotiable?"
