Chapter 279: The Boy Who Delivers Wealth Comes to Your Door
Seeing the smirk on President Qin's face that was not in line with his status and age, Bai Qi suddenly realized and said, "He will definitely not be lenient. Hmm, how about legendary resources?"
Upon hearing this, President Qin's face froze and he said, "You don't think legendary resources are everywhere, do you?"
"Isn't it?"
Bai Qi looked at President Qin with some curiosity. He did a quick calculation and found that in addition to the crystal dragon bones he had exchanged from Bureau Thirteen at the beginning, Bai Qi had already exchanged several legendary resources from the association alone. And judging from the appearance of the Holy Relic Tower, it was obvious that he still had a lot of them stored.
President Qin sighed and said, "Legendary resources are basically obtained from king-level or emperor-level creatures. It is not easy to obtain them. Except for long-standing forces like the Association or national organizations like the Federation, civilian forces like the Consortium will not easily take them out for trading even if they have them."
“Although the profits from the Yuling Ball are huge, they are still based on money. It is absolutely impossible to ask them to take out legendary resources.”
Bai Qi understood what he said and immediately lost interest.
He basically has no shortage of small amounts of money now, and the only things that interest him are legendary resources. From what President Qin said, it seems unlikely that they will come up with legendary resources, so that would be meaningless.
“Don’t be so negative.”
President Qin waved his hand and said, "Think carefully about what your major is now. If you miss such a good opportunity, you won't be able to encounter it again in the future."
After hearing what President Qin said, Bai Qi's eyes suddenly lit up.
"I see!"
"That's good to know."
President Qin smiled with satisfaction, and then ordered them to leave.
"If you don't have anything else, get out of here right away. Remember to keep your phone open. I'll contact you at any time to complete the mission."
Bai Qi was in a very good mood now. He nodded very readily, and then quickly left the association.
"This kid is really..."
Looking at Bai Qi's rapidly receding figure outside the window, President Qin couldn't help but laugh.
He usually looks mature, and his experience in doing things is even as experienced as some old foxes, but he is still a student after all.
…
With the Void Echo skill and the Hurricane Talent of the Wind God Pterosaur, Bai Qi returned home almost instantly. However, before Bai Qi landed, he saw two groups of people standing in front of his door.
Coming so quickly?
Bai Qi was a little surprised, and then let Delta fall.
"Bai Qi, you are finally back , but you made Uncle Zhuge wait for a long time."
Seeing Bai Qi appear, Zhuge Xu immediately came forward and said, "I have to thank you very much. The thing you gave Zhuge Chen, yes, the green leaf ball, finally solved a knot in this kid's heart."
"Uncle Zhuge, you are so polite. It's my duty."
Bai Qi smiled, glanced at Zhuge Chen who looked helpless behind him, and asked, "Uncle Zhuge, did you come here today to talk to me about something?"
Zhuge Xu nodded and said, "That's right, but the protagonist today is not me, but them."
As he spoke, Zhuge Xu stepped aside and pointed behind him, and the two men also walked over.
"Xia Xuan?"
Bai Qi was a little surprised when he saw one of them looked familiar, but when he saw the middle-aged man next to Xia Xuan who looked 70% similar to him, he immediately understood.
President Qin just mentioned this matter to me, and the people from Xia Group have already shown up?
Coming so quickly.
Xia Xuan obviously didn't want to face Bai Qi in this situation, so he turned his head away and refused to speak. The middle-aged man next to him frowned slightly and said, "Xuan'er, don't be rude."
Hearing the man speak, Xia Xuan turned his head and nodded reluctantly towards Bai Qi as a greeting.
"Let me introduce you. This is the current head of the Xia Group, Chairman Xia Yixia. Bai Qi, you can just call him Uncle Xia."
Seeing Xia Xuan's look, Zhuge Xu smiled faintly, and then introduced the man's identity to Bai Qi, while Xia Yi waved his hand and said, "I dare not regard myself as an elder. Bai Qi, if you don't mind, just call me by my name."
"Boss Xia is joking."
Bai Qi smiled faintly, then opened the door and said, "Everyone, please come in and talk."
Xia Yi's purpose of coming here is obvious, so Bai Qi naturally doesn't want to leave him out in the cold.
Several people came in one after another. After Bai Qi made tea for them, he did not rush to speak, but just sipped the tea silently.
Silence is golden. He can't outsmart these old foxes who are good at business. There is no point in saying more.
Anyway, with Zhuge Xu here, I will never suffer any loss.
"Okay, now that everyone is familiar with each other, let me take the lead."
Zhuge Xu saw that Bai Qi had no intention of speaking first, and a hint of appreciation flashed in his eyes. He coughed twice and said, "Bai Qi, you know that the Yuling Balls are about to be distributed, right?"
Bai Qi nodded and said, "I just came back from President Qin's place and heard about it as well."
Zhuge Xu nodded and said, "The first batch of spirit control balls will be distributed to all qualified untalented people in the entire federation. After that, the federation will truly be a place where everyone can control beasts. Bai Qi, as the creator, you will definitely go down in history."
"But Uncle Zhuge is a layman, so he won't waste time talking to you about these empty words. He'll get straight to the point."
Zhuge Xu paused and said, "The first batch of Spirit Control Balls and the corresponding free beast control will be distributed by the Beast Control Association. It has nothing to do with us. But after that, the production and sale of Spirit Control Balls will be gradually handed over to the agency designated by the Federation. But so far, the Federation has not yet completely determined which agency to hand it over to."
"If uncle is not mistaken, someone from the Federation will contact you in the next few days to ask Bai Qi for your opinion."
Bai Qi nodded slightly when he heard this. Although this sounded a bit nonsense, the Federation's respect for core patent owners was obvious to all. This clause was also included in the agreement signed by Wang Jian and Bai Qi.
Of course, Bai Qi seriously suspected that the association and his teacher Bai Heguang might also have had an influence on this.
"Uncle Zhuge, do you want to participate in the production of the Yuling Ball?"
Upon hearing this, Zhuge Xu quickly waved his hands and said, "Thanks to you, Wuhou Financial Group has already taken on one-third of the Federation's exclusive breeding halls for spirit masters. Even if Wuhou Financial Group is really given the production qualifications, it still cannot afford it."
"Uncle Zhuge came here this time to recommend the Xia Group to you."
Bai Qi nodded. Xia Yi and Zhuge Xu came together and got along so well. It was obvious that they had discussed it beforehand and maybe even reached some agreement, otherwise Zhuge Xu would give up the benefits so easily.
As soon as Zhuge Xu finished speaking, Xia Yi took over the conversation and said, "Although the Xia Group does not have as much capital as other established groups, it has made some achievements in the field of mechanics. The Yuling Ball is a creation that will benefit the entire federation. If the Xia Group missed such a big event, it would be a great pity."
"Of course, we won't let you, Bai Qi, suffer any loss."
Xia Yi took out a document and said, "As long as you, Bai Qi, are willing to let the Xia Corporation take over the production rights of the Yuling Balls throughout the Federation, in addition to the patent fees that should be paid, the Xia Corporation is willing to give you 10% of the profits of the Yuling Balls."
At this point, Xia Yi's face flashed with apology, and he said: "I know that 10% is a little less, but the Yuling Ball involves a lot of things, so the Xia Group will give you some compensation in other places."
After saying that, Xia Yi looked at Bai Qi, wanting to hear Bai Qi's opinion, but Bai Qi seemed to have heard nothing and didn't react at all.
Sure enough, a 10% profit is really not attractive to someone who has four core patents.
It makes sense that a person who can come up with such a groundbreaking invention, even if he is still a student, cannot be judged by the eyes of an ordinary person.
"How about this, Bai Qi, I know you are still a mecha master, and the Xia Group has done some research in this area. If you don't mind, the Xia Group has a vacant mecha research laboratory in Gusu City, which I will give to you, Bai Qi."
"Don't worry, the Xia Group will take care of the subsequent maintenance."
After hearing what Xia Yi said, Bai Qi finally got moving, nodded repeatedly, and said: "I don't mind, of course I don't mind, Uncle Xia is really too polite."
Wasn't he called Mr. Xia just now? Why is he called Uncle Xia now?
Seeing Bai Qi like this, Xia Xuan couldn't help but roll his eyes and instinctively wanted to mock him, but when he thought of his father's instructions before leaving, he held back.
"Hahahaha... Old Xia, you are really generous. There is no way I can fall behind."
Seeing that Bai Qi agreed to Xia Yi's conditions, Zhuge Xu couldn't help but burst into laughter and said, "Old Xia and I have discussed it before. The spirit-controlling balls produced by the Xia Corporation will generally be handed over to our Wuhou Corporation's breeding hall and the Elf House for sale. Uncle doesn't have much to give from the Mechanical Weapon Research Laboratory, so I'll give you two parts of the profit."
Bai Qi waved his hands repeatedly upon hearing this, and was about to refuse immediately, but Zhuge Xu interrupted him and said, "I know you want to refuse, but business is business. I haven't thanked you for the breeding house yet, so this extra tenth of the profit should be the breeding house's share."
Hearing Zhuge Xu say this, Bai Qi could only give up and said, "Thank you, Uncle Zhuge."
"Why should I thank you for talking about business? Uncle should also thank you for always remembering the Wuhou Consortium."
Zhuge Chen knew very well that if it were not for Bai Qi's suggestion, even if the Wuhou Consortium could intervene in the affairs of the breeding center, it would have to pay a heavy price. It would not have been like now that the Federation came directly to them to seek cooperation.
If Zhuge Xu hadn't been worried that Bai Qi would be disgusted, he would have wanted to get a larger share of the profits.
Being able to build his career from scratch and reach his current position, Zhuge Xu is not a person who is greedy for small profits, but a man of great courage.
"Since you agree, Bai Qi, I will wait for good news."
Xia Yi smiled slightly, then patted Xia Xuan beside him and said, "Xia Xuan has dealt with you before, Bai Qi. Although this kid has some talent , he is really lacking in interpersonal skills. If there is anything inappropriate, Bai Qi, please don't mind it."
"Uncle Xia, you are too kind. Xia Xuan has helped me a lot."
Bai Qi shook his head repeatedly when he heard this. This was not nonsense. If it weren't for Xia Xuan, the titanium-platinum alloy that Shuke had used before and the natural disaster energy that maintained the operation of the secret base, he would have nowhere to get it.
How could Bai Qi despise such a living boy who brings wealth?
