Super Gene Hunting Ground

Duan Jinjiang knelt on the ground, clutching Ba Tianhu’s thigh, tears streaming down his face, yet inside he was laughing like a pig.

By the time Ba Tianhu came to his senses, it was too late.

Yuri the Think Tank and Deputy City Lord Chi Qing, among others, were dumbfounded as they looked at Ba Tianhu,

What is going on?

Wasn’t it agreed to extort a hefty sum from Duan Jinjiang?

How did Duan Jinjiang’s pitiful sobbing lead him to agree right away?

Ba Tianhu coughed several times, Can I take back what I just said?

As one of the three overlords of the Central Continent, how could words spoken to my underlings not count?

Feeling quite displeased within, Ba Tianhu glanced at Duan Jinjiang kneeling before him,

"President Duan, get up, stop crying. Since I promised you, I will definitely help you achieve it,

But you, kid, are really not honest,"

Hearing this, Duan Jinjiang immediately stood up, bowed deeply to Ba Tianhu, and said humbly:

"Boss, I was wrong, I know I was wrong, I shouldn’t have gone to Dark Web for help, I was, I was foolish!"

As he spoke, Duan Jinjiang’s tears flowed again, his voice choked, showing a pitiful and humble look.

Ba Tianhu and the others were stunned, somewhat surprised at Duan Jinjiang.

Originally thinking Duan Jinjiang would find some excuse to defend himself, they didn’t expect him to admit fault directly.

No matter if Duan Jinjiang was sincerely admitting fault or pretending, at this moment, his posture made Ba Tianhu very satisfied and greatly enjoyed.

As the boss, what he cared about most in front of his subordinates was his authority and dignity.

The reason Ba Tianhu was angry at Duan Jinjiang was mainly because Duan Jinjiang didn’t look for him to solve Yang Xiao, instead going to Dark Web, which didn’t put him in his eyes, challenging his boss authority.

Ba Tianhu delayed helping Duan Jinjiang solve the Yang Xiao problem, not only intending to extort some money but more importantly waiting for Duan Jinjiang to be cornered and seek him out, which made sense.

Now, Duan Jinjiang was kneeling in front of him, crying and pleading, bowing and kowtowing, which made him very satisfied.

Isn’t this exactly the result he wanted?

Ba Tianhu patted Duan Jinjiang’s shoulder, said lightly:

"Hmm, knowing your mistakes is good, with this attitude, very good,

You’ve cooperated with me not just for a year or two, haven’t we always cooperated well over these years? Who in Central Continent dares to challenge you, wasn’t every time Guo Jianglong and Pangolin helping you solve, which time didn’t we help you resolve the troubles?"

This time you faced Yang Xiao’s challenge, yet you went to Dark Web, haha, to be honest, Duan Jinjiang, you really disappointed me!"

Duan Jinjiang lowered his head again,

"Sorry, boss, I know I was wrong, I originally thought Dark Web’s Mr. Master was somewhat of a character, didn’t dare disturb you for such a minor matter, so I went to Dark Web’s Mr. Master,

Who knew that, damn it, Dark Web’s Mr. Master is just a pile of crap!"

Talking about Dark Web’s Mr. Master, Duan Jinjiang showed a gnashing expression.

If it weren’t for Dark Web dropping the ball, he wouldn’t be in such a sorry state today.

Speaking of Dark Web, Ba Tianhu snorted coldly, said lightly:

"Dark Web, Mr. Master, they have ambition, but wanting to run rampant in Central Continent, can they do it without a certain strength?"

When mentioned here, Ba Tianhu suddenly remembered that in a moment of excitement, he agreed to help Duan Jinjiang deal with Yang Xiao without even charging a single crystal disk, that can’t be right,

If I help you solve the problem but don’t charge a bit of consulting fee, that won’t do, right?

"Cough, President Duan, I’ve heard you hired Dark Web to assassinate Yang Xiao, they charged you a billion crystal disks,

Dark Web didn’t complete the task but compensated you with a billion crystal disks, is that correct?"

Upon hearing this, Duan Jinjiang immediately said:

"Boss, I was just about to report it to you. This time I’ve brought you 3 billion crystal disks, I implore you, for the sake of our old friendship, to help me solve this trouble with Yang Xiao to save our Vulture Chamber of Commerce,

All of our Vulture Chamber of Commerce, over ten thousand people, are deeply grateful to you."

After speaking, Duan Jinjiang waved to Second Elder Ma Xiaotian behind him.

Second Elder Ma Xiaotian immediately said:

"Boss, the 3 billion crystal disks are ready, they’re in the hands of the guards outside the door."

Second Elder walked to the door, signaled to several accompanying guards outside, and they followed him into the hall, took out dozens of half-meter-high crystal disk bags from their individual Space Rings, neatly placed them in the hall, then bowed and exited the hall.

Duan Jinjiang put on a smiling face, slightly bowed, said:

"Boss, here’s the 3 billion crystal disks, originally I wanted to offer you 5 billion crystal disks as a tribute, alas, Yang Xiao extorted me for 5 billion crystal disks, putting our trade union in a cash flow crisis, Boss, I,"

Duan Jinjiang said, tears came again, looking pitifully helpless.

Ba Tianhu glanced at Duan Jinjiang with disdain, waved his hand,

"Alright, stop crying poor to me, is it because I’m after your money? Where’s the friendship between us?"

"..."

Yuri the Think Tank, Deputy City Lord Chi Qing, among others, were dumbfounded as they looked at Ba Tianhu.

What is friendship?

Is there any?

"Boss, I was foolish!"

Duan Jinjiang seized the moment to squeeze out a few more tears, showing a look of remorse for his past actions.

Having received 3 billion crystal disks, Ba Tianhu was comforted in his heart, though falling two billion short of his 5 billion crystal disk expectations, it was still a hefty sum matching his appearance fee as one of the three overlords of Central Continent.

Ba Tianhu deliberately sighed heavily,

"Alright, what’s past is past, in all fairness, based on our friendship, even if you didn’t give me a single crystal disk, as long as you came to me, can I stand idly by as you’re humiliated?"

Duan Jinjiang: "..."

"However, the brothers under me need to spend money, dealing with someone as ferocious as Yang Xiao, Dark Web had dozens of casualties, even their Mr. Eight was killed by Yang Xiao,

I send my brothers, inevitably there’ll be casualties, we must provide compensations for those executed brothers and their families, right?

So, the 3 billion crystal disks I charge, it’s not because I want your money, but for the brothers working, do you understand?"

"Understood, understood, it’s rightful, rightful."

Duan Jinjiang immediately said repeatedly.

Being able to spend 3 billion crystal disks to have Ba Tianhu act, he’s already satisfied.

Actually, he prepared 5 billion crystal disks.

If Ba Tianhu insisted on 5 billion, he also had no choice but to give.

Now sacrificing some dignity, giving two billion less, Duan Jinjiang is quite pleased.

He himself is a businessman, accustomed to bowing in front of the strong and being domineering in front of the weak.

What does dignity count for?

His dignity as Duan Jinjiang can be worth 2 billion crystal disks, indicating it’s pretty valuable!

Duan Jinjiang took advantage of the situation and quickly said,

"Boss, when do you plan to send people to deal with Yang Xiao?

Yang Xiao is now using his caravan to wholesale goods at low prices, significantly impacting dozens of surrounding cities, traders from these cities are demanding us to lower our prices, otherwise they’ll go to Yang Xiao to buy,

If we don’t stop it, let it continue to expand, the consequences could be disastrous!"

Duan Jinjiang said, once more squeezing out tears.

This time, it was genuine tears of heartfelt sadness and true emotion.
