Richest Rag-picker

Chapter 465: Chapter 438: Fortunate

Fang Chenyi couldn’t help but chuckle at Vajra’s stunned expression.

Vajra, that guy, always used his long arms to his advantage, sneaking up on Fang Chenyi for a hug every now and then. It always left Fang Chenyi at a loss for words.

But for some reason, Vajra was incredibly enthusiastic about it. It seemed like getting a hug and seeing the helpless look on his face brought the big guy immense joy.

’But from now on, I bet he won’t be able to catch me again unless I let him.’

He smiled and reached out to pat Vajra’s big head.

"Alright now, go on and eat. If you behave, I’ll take you out for a walk later."

WOOF WOOF WOOF!

As if it had heard what Fang Chenyi said to Vajra, Er Gouzi, who was down below, immediately started barking as well.

Amused by the sight, Fang Chenyi patted Er Gouzi’s head too and said,

"Don’t worry, I won’t forget you. You can come for a walk too."

With that, he paid the two no more mind and headed straight for the cafeteria.

He grabbed a quick bite to eat. Only then did he leisurely and unhurriedly make his way to the helicopter.

When Fang Chenyi pushed open the door and re-entered the room where Poseidon Robton was being held, the man was in the middle of a meal.

However, upon seeing Fang Chenyi, he stopped eating and hurriedly began to speak.

"Oh, my friend, you’re finally here. I’ve thought it over. I currently control ten percent of my clan’s businesses, and I can transfer all of them to you right now."

"But it must be done in secret. I haven’t built up my own power base yet, so I can’t let the clan find out. Otherwise, they will never let me get away with it, nor would they allow the clan’s businesses to fall into your hands."

"And once I take control of the Poseidon Clan, I will give you the remaining forty percent."

"What do you say, my friend? I’m showing you all my sincerity."

Without giving Fang Chenyi a chance to speak, Poseidon Robton rattled off a long list of conditions, not forgetting to explain the details.

Fang Chenyi was quite satisfied after hearing the terms offered.

’This is probably everything he has.’

’Of course, even if this isn’t everything he controls, I’m still very satisfied.’

’Compared to ten percent of the Poseidon Clan’s businesses, that box of Bone Powder is really nothing.’

However, Fang Chenyi didn’t agree right away.

Instead, he nodded and said nonchalantly,

"Is that all? Hmm, I’ll have to think about it. After all, that item is extremely important and incredibly rare. I’m sure if word got out that I have it, plenty of other hidden families would want to contact me. The Poseidon Clan isn’t the only one in the world, am I right?"

Hearing Fang Chenyi’s words, Poseidon Robton immediately grew restless.

It was just as Fang Chenyi had said. The Poseidon Clan wasn’t the only family in the world; in fact, there were many families far more powerful. If they found out Fang Chenyi possessed such an item, they would undoubtedly use every method at their disposal to get their hands on it.

And "every method" included the most unscrupulous ones.

’Of course,’ Poseidon Robton thought, ’with Fang Chenyi’s power and terrifying skill, other families wouldn’t dare try anything underhanded, even if they desperately wanted it. They would try to trade for it with benefits instead.’

’If it really comes to that, others might make offers far better than mine. Then this treasure might truly slip through my fingers.’

The more he thought about it, the more anxious he became. Poseidon Robton clenched his jaw and finally said,

"Sixty percent! I promise you, if I take control of the Poseidon Clan, I’ll give you sixty percent! That’s my absolute final offer. If you still don’t agree, then there’s nothing more I can do."

Fang Chenyi was stunned to hear Poseidon Robton’s words. He hadn’t expected his casual bluff to yield such an unexpected windfall.

’Sixty percent. Giving away sixty percent of his clan... this guy really is something else.’

’But who would say no to a freebie? Since he’s practically forcing it on me, I’d be a fool not to take it, right?’

At this thought, Fang Chenyi feigned a moment of hesitation.

Finally, he met Poseidon Robton’s eyes and said in a measured tone,

"Alright, I can accept your terms. Of course, it’s not your offer that swayed me; I’m sure many others could offer something far better. However, I’m a person who enjoys making friends. And you... I have a good feeling about you. You’re my kind of guy."

Poseidon Robton grew visibly excited at Fang Chenyi’s words. As for the part about being friends, he didn’t take it seriously at all. ’Friend my ass,’ he thought. ’If he really saw me as a friend, he wouldn’t have fleeced me like this.’

Of course, while he knew this in his heart, he would never say it out loud. On the surface, he naturally maintained a look of pure excitement.

Fang Chenyi gestured to Liu Yishou, who was standing beside him, indicating that he could remove Poseidon Robton’s iron chains.

In the next moment, with a wave of his arm, the wooden box abruptly appeared in Fang Chenyi’s hand.

This sight made Poseidon Robton’s pupils constrict.

This ability to conjure something from thin air... Poseidon Robton had only ever seen it performed by the previous Patriarch of his clan. And that old Patriarch had long since gone to meet his maker.

According to the clan’s records, the old Patriarch’s power had already reached a transcendent level.

According to legend, the old Patriarch had been one of the top three powerhouses in the world!

And yet, this young man from Huaxia before him possessed such an ability? ’Could it be... that his true power is no less than that of my clan’s old Patriarch?’

The more he thought, the more his heart pounded. Poseidon Robton now felt truly fortunate—fortunate that he had chosen to reconcile, fortunate that they hadn’t ended up as enemies, and fortunate that he had pulled Fang Chenyi into his own camp.

’That’s right. I’ve given him more than half of the clan’s businesses. This means he’s practically a member of the Poseidon Clan himself.’

’If the Poseidon Clan were ever threatened, he wouldn’t just stand by and watch, would he?’

There was another thing. Poseidon Robton knew that since the old Patriarch’s fall, his clan, once ranked in the top ten, had now fallen to around fiftieth place.

’But with Fang Chenyi on our side, perhaps the clan could return to the top ten, maybe even the top three...’
