Chapter 1388: Beat It First and Talk Later
The mineral star has been occupied for four or five months. If the real owner had not yet been found, Kunhai would have been able to sell the mining rights.
Even so, the sale of mining rights is now on the agenda.
When the Digital Phantom counterattacked the mineral star, there were actually quite a few Hegel family spies among them.
It's just that these spies had infiltrated the mining management department's external staff and didn't make any noise, so even Qu Jianlei and the others didn't notice them.
This Supreme has no personal grudge against the Hegel family. Instead, there is more cooperation between the mining management department and the Energy Block Alliance.
However, one is a government official and the other is a businessman, they are not the same kind of people at all.
Both of them are the best among the best, so there is no question of who depends on whom. Moreover, they have their own backgrounds, so it is impossible for them to get too close.
Zhigao didn't intend to make a fuss about his family at first, but there were still two mines left... he really couldn't afford to pay for it.
Even if he finds two more families that are easier to bully, once those three families join forces, he will definitely be killed without a burial place.
So now, he has no choice but to use the Hegel family.
——This company not only owns the mine, but is also the instigator. Is this piece of information enough?
It may not be enough to give it to others. How can information be considered compensation?
But Digital Phantom is different. This team pays great attention to having a legitimate reason.
It’s not that they won’t do evil, but they have no reason to do evil. So, isn’t it enough for him to give them a reason?
Of course, in the heart of the Supreme, there is also an obsession with his superiors - is it limited to solving problems within the Pearl Star Region?
My business scope is indeed limited to Mingzhu, but if Digital Phantom takes the initiative, it will be none of my business.
After all, he was a little disappointed with the reaction of the higher authorities this time: I was just following the rules, so is there really no one who would come forward to protect me?
Anyway, his superiors don't take him seriously, and he doesn't mind causing some trouble for his colleagues - it depends on whether you all stick to your principles!
After listening to this, Mu Guang simply asked calmly, "How many energy stone mines does the Hegel family own?"
"I have never heard of a sole proprietorship," Zhigao replied seriously, "even if there is one, it is taboo. I have no way of knowing."
"There are at least six medium-sized mines with a stake of more than 60%... The rest of the shares are mostly necessary proportions."
This is common sense. No matter how capable you are, you won't go far if you only eat alone.
Mu Guang blinked his eyes. "So... this family name is worth two mines?"
"Well..." Zhigao felt a little sweat on his forehead, and could only smile and say, "What I'm offering is status."
"What a title," Mu Guang nodded calmly, "If you bring out another 5 billion energy blocks, I'll let you go."
"Ah?" Zhigao was shocked. "Three times the compensation for one... I still have to pay another five billion?"
"You don't mind that little bit!" Mu Guang answered calmly. He has been in the gray area for many years and of course knows the benefits of the Mining Management Department.
The key is that he also has reasons, "No matter what, you provoked us... If you don't lose money, how will others see you?"
It’s no longer a matter of Digital Phantom’s face, but rather…what did you do to make others let you go?
However, Zhigao was ultimately reluctant to part with Shancai, and he gritted his teeth, "But I really..."
"I hope you'll be careful with your words," Mu Guang interrupted him coldly, "Have you ever thought about the consequences of deceiving us?"
"Okay," Zhigao was indeed flexible, "I'll try my best to make up for it."
However, Mu Guang didn't buy it. "You still have two days. Don't say I didn't warn you!"
"Does this count within the ten days?" Zhigao's face looked extremely bitter.
Mu Guang ignored him and turned back to the starship. No matter what, all the news he received today was good news, and this fishing trip was indeed fruitful.
However, everyone present was overwhelmed at the thought of having to pretend to be a third party to inspect the mine.
It's not that the mine is worthless. About 300 billion is enough to keep the cave alive for at least two years. It's worth the effort to deal with it.
But this is a long-term income, and there will inevitably be conflicts in the early stages, which will definitely consume manpower and time.
Considering that the other party would not be willing to have their property taken away, fighting is a trivial matter and should be somewhat dangerous.
So this is not a problem that can be solved by one or two people, it definitely requires hard power to stabilize the situation.
But among the people who came out this time, the only ones who could calm the situation were Qu Jianlei, Jing Yuexin and Jia Shuiqing, and Xizhao was counted as half.
The others, Bentley, Flower Scorpion and Yuanyuan, must be quite powerful. They have all survived the thunder tribulation and are pseudo-golden elixirs that are stronger than the supreme one.
But there is always a possibility of failure among the Supremes, so it is better to be at the Nascent Soul level, which makes people feel relatively relieved.
Finally, it was Jing Yuexin who spoke up, "I'll arrange it. Since Duogan is still my man, it's convenient for me to check it out for him."
In other words, team members don’t have to worry about getting the mine, as it will be transferred to the team’s name in the end.
There are certainly dangers in this process, but that is not a team matter, so everyone feels that they have less responsibility.
Qu Jianlei said, "Anyway, the Digital Phantom is here this time, and everyone else knows that we are targeting the energy stone mine."
"If necessary, let them fly our flag... Hopefully, we can reduce unnecessary losses."
Jing Yuexin and Duo Gan’s subordinates certainly do not belong to the team - those people also have their own needs, but they are not counted as part of the team.
But if we can, we can just take care of it.
Jing Yuexin still had some concerns. She said thoughtfully, "It would be great if we could use the banner, but we have to consider our image."
"Even if I reveal my identity, I'm afraid I may not be able to get 100% of the shares of this mine."
When taking things by force, one must also consider one’s manners; eating alone can have serious consequences.
And Digital Phantom’s name is indeed famous enough, but... isn’t there idol pressure?
"That's not a requirement," Qu Jianlei was very open-minded about this, "it's fine as long as we own the majority of the shares."
He had previously given Katya ten points on the mineral star, but that couldn’t be considered a full occupation.
In fact, he believed that the mine was already completely occupied by his side, and they had rescued the discoverer under great pressure, so leaving a little behind was just a matter of scale.
But robbing other people’s mines is different. He has to take everything into consideration and never does things alone.
Of course, Digital Phantom has to resist the pressure and refuse to pay taxes. It will also have to pay a lot to privatize the mine, and it must hold a majority stake.
There is no need to explain these details. Those who understand will understand, and those who don’t understand will be educated by society.
Jing Yuexin heaved a sigh of relief when she heard this. "It's easier if I take the majority stake. I'll go and arrange this."
Old Lady Jia also stated her latest progress. "There has been no progress on the information introduced by Da Vinci for the time being."
Da Vinci gave the information of a private mine of energy stones, which might be for sale, but the other party was very cautious.
Upon hearing this, Claire couldn't help but ask, "If we collect energy stone ore on a large scale, will it drive up the price of the ore?"
Everyone looked at each other in surprise when they heard this: When did this little guy learn to say such unlucky words?
No one answered her question, but Qu Jianlei frowned and said, "It seems that we need to take action against the Hegel family as soon as possible."
Tianyin followed him out this time, and couldn't help but ask, "Don't you need to warn them first?"
"No need!" Mu Guang answered straightforwardly, "Since you dare to act rashly, you must bear the corresponding consequences!"
"That's right," the flower scorpion's face was unusually calm.
How could there be so much reasoning on the garbage planet? If you dare to provoke others, be prepared to be killed.
The present imperial society appears to be in good order, but that is only because the interests involved are not great, and so it appears to be peaceful.
When faced with major interests, all the major forces still show their blatant and arrogant faces.
This is how society is, it has nothing to do with morality.
Flower Scorpion even took the initiative to suggest, "It's better to act early. It seems that this family has considerable power."
However, she was not worried about her own strength. "What if they find out that we were the ones who were offended and have to apologize?"
Mu Guang smiled when he heard this, "The Hegel family... their influence cannot be underestimated. They are the founders of a long-standing philosophical school."
"But you didn't even give me a chance to apologize. How cruel!"
"Hit them until it hurts first," Flower Scorpion looked at Qu Jianlei, "If it doesn't hurt, they'll inevitably be optimistic, right, boss?"
Qu Jianlei also laughed when he heard this, "I think you can change your career and become a robber. You have really understood the true meaning of this."
He was joking, but this behavior is indeed somewhat similar.
When robbers act, they usually injure a few people first to deter them and make it easier for them to rob.
Qu Jianlei hated this kind of behavior very much, but his side's approach was different - after all, it was the other side that provoked him first!
Don’t talk about whether you knew or not. Since they took action first, don’t blame them for being rude.
In fact, there are offices of the Hegel family in Kunhaixing, and there is more than one.
Because of the recent promotion of the sale of mining rights on the mineral star, there is currently a Supreme Station.
With the landing of the regiment-level ship, people from the mining management department came to visit, and this information attracted widespread attention.
The Hegel family has already received news of the accident on the mineral star, and is even more certain that the victim is Digital Phantom.
This was truly a bolt from the blue, and it scared them too.
Normally, after getting into trouble, they should consider actively saving themselves and ask the relevant people to apologize.
However, Digital Phantom contacted the mining management department, which means that they have identified the responsible party in this matter.
The Hegel family does not think that they are the initiators. In their view, the relevant procedures are indeed the responsibility of the mining management department.
From the perspective of the empire's management alone, this matter cannot be blamed on anyone else - if the operation is not approved by the Mining Administration, everything will be in vain.
But the Hegel family was also nervous because the Digital Phantom was too difficult to deal with.
But there is one good thing: these people are running a private mine and have not clearly announced it - from this perspective, ignorance is not a crime.
Just when the Hegel family was considering whether to ask someone to intercede, the top official from the Mining Administration Department came to their door and said: Please try your best!
This actually forced the Hegel family to stop - how could they just steal such limelight?
