The Lord Demon King is Unfathomable!

Mr. Punk's heart skipped a beat, cold sweat pouring down, almost causing him to kneel on the spot in fright from these words.

What, what does this mean?!

Thoughts raced through his mind swiftly, pondering where he might have offended His Highness.

Seeing Punk drenched in sweat, Luo Yan chuckled and said.

"...Look at you, I'm discussing serious matters with you, yet here you are, trying to figure out my mind."

"Your Highness, I..." Punk opened his mouth, stammering, unable to speak.

"Alright, don't just stand there. I'm not testing you, have a seat and let's talk."

Luo Yan lightly raised his index finger, causing the teapot on the table to float up, pouring himself a cup of tea as well.

Punk sat down cautiously, holding the teacup in both hands, taking a careful sip.

Luo Yan continued as he watched him.

"Besides, I was serious about what I just said. Thunder City is like a horse-drawn carriage charging forward, new things are born here every day, and I hope you can keep up too. If you can't accept my charity, then how about this, I'll lend you money, and you can buy some shares of the Colin Group, start with buying 1% back."

Mundane money to him is merely a number, he has no idea how much he really owns.

As a high-level employee, Punk has reached the position of "Thunder City Branch CEO", he ought to be given the proper reward.

Not paying for work is something only a slave master would do, the Demon King doesn't do such things.

Of course, not everyone can sit down and talk with the Demon King. For example, when managing the goblins at Black Wind Castle, he has another way to handle the goblins.

As a Demon King well-versed in human nature, he is adept at responding to his demons under his command in the way that matches their expectations.

For instance, dealing with Enchanting Demons, he uses the Enchanting Demon's methods. Dealing with the Blood Race, he... well, doesn't really have a method for that.

Seeing that Prince Colin wasn't testing him, Punk gave a wry smile, fell silent for a moment, then said.

"Your Highness, I am very grateful for your generosity, but I always feel unworthy of having so much. I... I'm just a groom after all."

Luo Yan shook his head.

"This is the issue, Mr. Punk, why do you think that a groom doesn't deserve to become a gentleman as respectable as the Nobles? Take Sir Andes for example, I doubt his ancestors possessed their own surname from the very first day."

Seeing Punk in deep thought, Luo Yan continued.

"I have great confidence in you and hope that you become more ambitious, or rather have a bit more ambition. I hope that in the future, when the citizens of Thunder City talk about you, they'll say the founder of the Punk family was an amazing guy, not '...Oh, Punk, I know him, he's just Prince Colin's white glove, without His Highness, he's nothing,' do you understand what I mean?"

Silence lasted for a while.

Punk took a deep breath, looked up at Prince Colin, and said sincerely.

"I understand, Your Highness. Thank you for your advice, I will seriously consider this… no, I will definitely do it!"

He understood Prince Colin's intention.

Prince Colin hopes he can have a place on the political stage of the Duchy, and not merely be an obedient servant.

More than that—

He also had higher expectations for him, the esteemed His Highness hopes he can become a remarkable Campbell person!

Seeing Punk who had realized this, Luo Yan nodded in satisfaction, pleased that he took the time from his busy schedule to offer guidance to this fellow.

As a Demon King, he is not short of servants, but lacks a few smart people like Yang Andes.

Moreover, what's currently going public in Thunder City isn't just the Colin Group's stock, but also the thriving Campbell Duchy.

The Royal Family is unprecedentedly sharing royal power with the citizens to counterbalance the internal conservative factions.

In this process, many new legends are destined to be born, and it would be a shame not to catch a ride.

This guy definitely has the opportunity to, in the not-too-distant future, participate in drafting the "Charter" that the Campbell Duchy will inevitably embrace.

He has the chance to go down in history!

"I'm glad you understand, Punk. Just like Simon Factory Director's 'bolt-action rifle,' I also look forward to your performance!"
