Chapter 1425: It’s Safer During the Day
Empire Trust's securities have never had trouble selling, especially as the situation has been bad recently and a large amount of safe-haven funds have flowed in.
This kind of securities were very popular in the past, but even after a round of crazy price increases, there is still no demand for them!
Wei Bo was very familiar with this kind of hard currency. "The current premium has reached 50%... What is this?"
"You guys handle it," Qu Jianlei waved his hand, "It's just a small investment... Come on!"
Watching the other two people climbing up the stairs, Wei Bo wanted to chase them, but didn't dare to, "But the investment agreement hasn't been signed yet..."
"It's not even convenient for me to transfer money, so why should I sign an investment agreement?" Qu Jianlei answered without turning his head.
"I admire people with dreams. You guys should start research and development first... I'm not afraid of throwing money away, so what are you worried about?"
Karl and Wei Bo didn't know what to say for a moment, and watched the other two disappear in front of them.
After a long while, Karl looked down at the securities in his companion's hand and said tremblingly, "Is it... true?"
Wei Bo finally came back to her senses and glared at him fiercely, "Why are you so excited? Do you know where the other party came from?"
Karl was not someone who only cared about research. He reacted immediately and asked, "Are you worried that the other party might take it by force?"
Having said that, there was not much nervousness on his face, because he thought the probability of this happening was very small.
"I know the probability is very small!" Wei Bo said impatiently. The two have been partners for many years and she knows her partner's thinking too well.
But she still said seriously, "Let's move. We don't want to lose our investment. We just have to be on guard."
While the two of them were discussing, Qu Jianlei and Jing Yuexin had already arrived dozens of kilometers away.
It's still dark now, but there are already people jogging on the roadside.
The two of them strolled leisurely, and Jing Yuexin asked, "Is this idea useful for ultra-long-distance transmission?"
She knew her boss's spending philosophy very well and knew he would never spend such a large sum of money.
But at the same time, the boss has a sense of awe in his heart and doesn't want to take advantage of others.
Moreover, she did not completely fail to understand the conversation just now, so she naturally thought of this possibility.
"Well," Qu Jianlei nodded, "We have the model. We really can't underestimate anyone... Don't you think I'm wasting money?"
"Do you spend money recklessly?" Jing Yuexin rolled her eyes at him, obviously thinking that this question was a bit stupid.
The next moment, she sighed again, "There's nothing I can do about spending money recklessly. You're the boss...why should I care about you?"
"Yes," Qu Jianlei nodded, "That's right, you have to fully trust me."
"But as a member of the team, you can raise objections, and I will fully consider your suggestions..."
"I'm hungry!" Jing Yuexin interrupted him without hesitation and quickened her pace, "I'm going to buy some food!"
"You're hungry?" Qu Jianlei looked at the receding figure in astonishment. "Is there something wrong with what I said? I'm very democratic, right?"
Anyway, I gained a lot tonight. I didn’t do anything serious, but I gained something in some ways.
There is a research institute of the Shenwen Society in Ambition City, but this is not the research center of the Shenwen Society.
Their center is in Hongyuan, the fourth largest city.
Hongyuan is also a super large urban circle, and together with the surrounding satellite cities, the total population is just over 40 million.
Although the population is not small, the entire urban area covers an area of more than 200,000 square kilometers.
Among these 40 million people, more than half are engaged in industries related to the Shenwen Society.
It can be considered that this is a city completely controlled by the Shenwen Society and is also the headquarters of the Shenwen Society.
It was also in this city that sunset was first served on the dining table.
The largest warehouse of the Divine Script Society is still in this city, and it even has the largest database and management center...
But fortunately, just like the Shenwen Society has branches in other cities, this city also has branches of other forces.
Whether it is for gathering intelligence or for strengthening cooperation and improving results, there are an unusually large number of branches.
The Shenwen Society is also well aware that the existence of these institutions is not purely for a single purpose, but isn’t it the same for their overseas agencies?
We are all adults, there is no need to live so childishly. If the water is too clear, there will be no fish.
Moreover, the Shenwen Society itself is not a completely official organization. They have absorbed a large number of unofficial supreme and technical talents.
Even some wanted people who have nowhere else to turn to the Shenwen Society can get effective protection and the government will no longer pursue them.
From this point of view, the Divine Text will be a bit like a large-scale digital Phantom, which is big enough to impress both the official and military authorities.
However, there are differences between the two. The Shenwen Society is a semi-official organization, and its main leaders are appointed by the government and the military.
So if they want to shelter someone, they must give sufficient reasons - this person has certain special qualities and is worthy of our shelter.
In other words, the protection of the Shenwen Society is very utilitarian, and the protected person must first have relevant value!
But Digital Phantom is different. It has nothing to do with the official. They can be protected if they want.
It was like they sheltered Zhenshanbao, and then Zhenshanbao dealt directly with the military and openly challenged their former superiors.
As for why he protected the Fourth Master, Qu Jianlei never thought of explaining it, and the military never asked.
——He doesn't even hang out in this group, so it's pointless to ask, not to mention there's a high chance that the relationship will deteriorate.
Although Qu Jianlei and Jing Yuexin went to Xiongxin City, when they arrived in Hongyuan City, Grandma Jia and others had just arrived.
It’s mainly because of Qu Jianlei’s natural aura and his strong shielding ability, not to mention the presence of Xizhao, an expert, accompanying him.
Everyone enters Hongyuan during the day. Once night falls, Shenwen will impose a curfew on Hongyuan!
It is not a complete curfew. The Shenwen Society still has no control over some areas.
Moreover, there is still nightlife in the curfew area, but if you don’t have the identity of the Shenwen Society, it is best not to take the risk.
In any case, it is safer to come to Hongyuan during the day than at night.
Xizhao was relatively familiar with this place and had chosen several places to stay before coming.
Everyone met outside the city and came to a place called Bailu Villa, a quiet manor on the outskirts of the city.
The owner of this room is named Lu Ming, a famous genius in the empire who reached the highest level at the age of seventy-one.
Among the living Supremes in the empire, the age at which he advanced to the Supreme is the second youngest, only after Jing Yuexin.
But for quite a long time, he was much more famous than Jing Yuexin.
This person is not very high-profile, but he is from the Imperial Academy, which is one of the three major academies along with the Dijing Academy and the Qiuzhen Academy.
Strictly speaking, the Imperial College has a longer and more glorious history. Its predecessor was the Imperial Royal College, and it is undoubtedly the number one.
It’s just that the royal family is no longer there, the Imperial Royal Academy has changed its style, and the former nobles are more inclined to the Glory Academy.
When Lu Ming appears, the Imperial College will naturally promote it vigorously to remind everyone that we are the college with the deepest heritage.
Jing Yuexin's academy is not in the core circle and its ranking is also low. In addition, she is too low-key, so not many people care about her.
In fact, Lu Ming is about 20 years younger than her, but much more famous than her.
It was not until Jing Yuexin emerged as the representative of Digital Phantom that everyone was surprised to find that she had reached this height.
Lu Ming not only has superb cultivation, but is also proficient in divine writings, and was specially hired by the Divine Writing Society as a consultant.
The Bailu Villa is Lu Ming’s residence at the moment, but most of the time, he doesn’t live here.
However, a person's reputation is like a tree's shadow. Even if he is not here, the Shenwen Society still attaches great importance to and takes good care of this villa.
Xizhao took advantage of this opportunity and when he found out that Lu Ming was still not there, he brought everyone in.
The villa covers an area of 70,000 to 80,000 square meters. In the base city of the Shenwen Society, such a large and quiet residence is really not small.
There are about ten people guarding here, some were left by Lu Ming, and some were sent by the Shenwen Society.
Although there are only a few people, with a large number of surveillance equipment and robots, the security level of the entire villa is comparable to that of a military zone.
At least when everyone was sneaking in, an alarm was almost triggered, fortunately Xizhao gave a timely warning.
"There is a spiritual power identifier here... Everyone be careful when releasing spiritual power!"
We have seen many mental sensors, but this is the first time we have encountered someone identifying outsiders through known mental powers.
Jiao Tan, who had been silent the whole time, couldn't help but sigh, "This must be imitating the self-cultivation world!"
Qu Jianlei disagreed, "It's nothing, right? We should allow people to improve."
"The reason why the world of immortal cultivation can dominate the world is because of its unremitting efforts to strive for the first place. If it only relies on suppressing dissidents, it will soon be doomed to failure!"
Master Yi He remained silent, but in the end he could not help but angrily said, "But they are really plagiarizing!"
Without further ado, after the group entered the Bailu Villa, they did not alarm the people in the courtyard at all.
The next step is to set up the rain-praying formation, which had been planned in advance.
The rain-praying formation is different from meteorological weapons, and is also different from Jia Shuiqing's control of water elements. It is closer to nature.
This is not something everyone takes for granted, but rather Sunset's perception. In this regard, no one has more say than the elves of heaven and earth.
Xizhao is not very fond of Yi He and would not deliberately compliment Yi He and Qu Jianlei's efforts, so this must be true.
Past meteorological data show that the weather in Hongyuan City is not particularly stable, but there is relatively little rain in this season.
The Shenwen Society rarely interferes with meteorology. They believe that following the laws of nature is important, but if there are important experiments, that is another matter.
On the second day after the rain-praying formation was set up, the entire Hongyuan City began to experience alternating sunny and cloudy weather.
On the third day, the sky was basically cloudy, and in the evening, it started to drizzle.
During these three days, the street kids also released their spiritual consciousness, and then found that this city was not very friendly to spiritual consciousness.
Those surveillance devices were not everywhere, but they popped up from time to time with no regular pattern.
But it is understandable that even Lu Ming, a slacking consultant, has a mental power identifier in his manor, let alone other people?
"Are we going out tonight?" The ruler jumped in the air, "I'm going to kill someone tonight!"
