Chapter 1425: Safer During the Day
Empire Trust's securities have never been hard to sell, especially since the situation has been bad recently and a large amount of safe-haven funds have entered.
Such securities were in great demand in the past, and now after a round of crazy growth, they are still unsalable!
Wei Bo is very familiar with this kind of hard currency, "The current premium has reached 50%... What are you doing?"
"You guys deal with 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 convenient for me to transfer money, so why sign an investment agreement?" Qu Jianlei answered without looking back.
"I admire people with dreams, you guys should do research and development first... I'm not afraid of throwing money, what are you worried about?"
Carl and Wei Bo didn't know what to say for a moment, and watched the other two people disappear in front of them.
After a long time, Karl looked down at the securities in his companion's hand and said tremblingly, "Is it... true?"
Wei Bo regained his composure and glared at him fiercely, "You are so excited! Do you know where the other party came from?"
Karl was not just a research guy, he reacted instantly, "Are you worried that the other party will rob you?"
Although he said so, there was not much nervousness on his face, because he thought that the probability 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 companion's thinking too well.
But she still said seriously, "Let's move. We are not going to lose our investment. It's really... we have to be on guard."
When they were discussing, Qu Jianlei and Jing Yuexin had already arrived dozens of kilometers away.
It was still dark at this moment, and there were already people jogging on the roadside.
The two strolled leisurely, and Jing Yuexin asked, "Is this idea useful for ultra-long-distance transmission?"
She knew the boss's consumption concept very well, and it was impossible for him to spend such a sum of money in vain.
But at the same time, the boss had a sense of awe in his heart and was unwilling to take advantage of others casually.
Besides, she didn't completely not understand the conversation just now, so she naturally thought of this possibility.
"Well," Qu Jianlei nodded, "Now that we have the model, we really can't underestimate anyone... Don't you think I'm wasting money?"
"You'll 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 it, you're the boss... Why should I care about you?"
"Well," 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 at the same time quickened her pace, "I'll go buy food!"
"You'll be hungry?" Qu Jianlei looked at the back in astonishment, "Is there anything wrong with what I said...? I'm very democratic, right?"
Anyway, tonight's gains were not small, and I didn't do anything serious, but I lost something in the east, but I gained something in the west.
There is a research institute of the Shenwen Society in the city of Ambition, but this is not the research center of the Shenwen Society.
Their center is in the fourth largest city, Hongyuan.
Hongyuan is also a super-large urban circle, and with the surrounding satellite cities, the total population is just over 40 million.
Although the population is not small, the area of the entire urban circle exceeds 200,000 square kilometers.
And more than half of these 40 million people 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 base camp of the Shenwen Society.
The sunset was pushed to the table in this city.
The largest warehouse of the Shenwen Society is still in this city, and even has the largest database and management center...
Fortunately, just like the Shenwen Society has branches in other cities, this city also has branches of other forces.
Whether it is for spying or for strengthening cooperation and improving results, there are still many branches.
The Shenwen Society is also very clear that the purpose of the existence of these institutions is not simple, but their external agencies are not the same.
We are all adults, there is no need to live so naively, and there will be no fish in the clear water.
Moreover, the Shenwen Society itself is not an outright official organization. They have absorbed a large number of non-official supreme and technical talents.
Even some wanted people who have nowhere to go to the Shenwen Society can get effective protection, and the government will no longer pursue them.
From this point of view, the Shenwen Society is a bit like the large-scale Digital Phantom, which has enough face in the official and military.
But there are differences between the two. As a semi-official organization, the main person in charge of the Shenwen Society is appointed by the government and the military.
So if they want to protect someone, they must give enough reasons-this person has certain specialties and is worthy of our protection.
In other words, the protection of the Shenwen Society is very utilitarian, and the protected person must first have relevant value!
But the Digital Phantom is different. It has nothing to do with the official. It can be protected if it wants.
Just like they protected the Zhenshan Fort, and then the Zhenshan Fort directly dealt with the military and openly challenged the former boss.
As for why the fourth boss was protected? Qu Jianlei never thought about making any explanation, 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, Jia Laotai and others had just arrived.
It was mainly because of Qu Jianlei's natural aura, which had a very strong shielding ability, not to mention that there was also Xizhao, an expert, accompanying him.
Everyone entered Hongyuan during the day, and at night, the Shenwen Association imposed a curfew on Hongyuan!
It was not a complete curfew, and the Shenwen Association still had no control over some areas.
Moreover, there was still nightlife in the curfew areas, but without the identity of the Shenwen Association, it was best not to take risks.
In any case, it was 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 Bieyuan, which was a quiet manor on the outskirts of the city.
The owner of this place was named Lu Ming, a famous genius in the empire, who advanced to the highest level at the age of 71.
Among the living Supremes in the Empire, he was the second youngest to advance to the Supreme, second only to Jing Yuexin.
But for quite a long time, he was much more famous than Jing Yuexin.
This person is not high-profile, but he was born in the Imperial College, which is a three-legged college with the Imperial Capital College and the Truth-seeking College.
Strictly speaking, the Imperial College has a longer and more glorious history. Its predecessor was the Imperial Royal College, which is well-deserved to be the first.
It's just that the Royal College is no longer there, and the Imperial Royal College has changed its style. The former nobles are more inclined to the Glory College.
When Lu Ming came out of nowhere, the Imperial College would naturally promote it vigorously to remind everyone that we are the college with the deepest foundation.
Jing Yuexin's college is not in the core circle, and the ranking is also a little bit worse. In addition, she is too low-key, so not many people care.
In fact, Lu Ming is twenty years younger than her, but he is much more famous than her.
It was not until Jing Yuexin came out of nowhere on behalf of Digital Phantom that everyone was surprised to find that she had reached this height.
Lu Ming not only has superb cultivation, but also is proficient in divine writing. He was specially hired as a consultant by the Divine Writing Society.
The current Bailu Villa is Lu Ming's residence, but most of the time, he does not live here.
However, a person's reputation is like a tree's shadow. Even if he is not here, the Divine Writing Society still values and takes care of this villa.
Xizhao saw this opportunity and found that Lu Ming was still not there, so he took everyone to live in.
The villa is 70,000 to 80,000 square meters. In the base camp city of the Divine Writing Society, such a large and quiet residence is really not small.
There are more than ten people guarding here, some of whom were left by Lu Ming, and some were sent by the Divine Writing Society.
Although there are few people, with a large number of monitoring equipment and robots, the alert level of the entire villa can be comparable to that of a military zone.
At least when everyone sneaked in, an alarm was almost triggered. Fortunately, Xizhao warned in time.
"There is a mental power identifier here... Everyone be careful when releasing spiritual power!"
Everyone has seen mental power sensors many times, but this is the first time they have encountered a method of identifying outsiders through known mental power.
Jiao Tan, who had been silent all the time, couldn't help but sigh, "This must be imitating the self-cultivation world!"
Qu Jianlei didn't think so, "It's nothing, right? We should allow people to improve."
"The reason why the cultivation world can dominate all worlds is that it strives to be the first. If it only relies on suppressing dissidents, it will not be far from defeat!"
Yi He Zhenjun said nothing, but finally couldn't help but angrily said, "But they are really plagiarizing!"
Without saying anything, the group entered the Bailu Villa without alarming the people in the yard.
The next step is to set up a rain-praying formation, which was planned before.
The rain-praying formation is different from meteorological weapons, and it is also different from Jia Shuiqing's control of water elements. It is closer to nature.
This is not what everyone takes for granted, but Xizhao's cognition. In this regard, no one has more say than the spirits of heaven and earth.
Xizhao is not very fond of Yi He, and will not deliberately compliment Yi He and Qu Jianlei's efforts, so this must be true.
Previous 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 intervenes in the weather. They believe that the law of nature is very important, but if there is an important experiment, it is another matter.
The second day after the rain-praying array was set up, the whole Hongyuan City began to have cloudy and sunny weather.
On the third day, it was basically cloudy, and it began to drizzle in the evening.
During these three days, the street urchins also released their spiritual consciousness, and then found that this city was not very friendly to spiritual consciousness.
Those monitoring devices are not everywhere, but they pop up from time to time, without any regularity.
But it is understandable that Lu Ming, the consultant who slacks off, can have a mental power identifier in his manor, let alone others?
"Are you going out tonight?" The ruler jumped in the air, "I'm going to kill someone tonight!"
