"H.e. Wu Ming, Miss Ye, please take a seat."
Li Zhong invited Wu Ming and Ye San 'niang to take a seat. After they were seated, Li Zhong took the main seat.
At this time, everyone had arrived.
"Well then, let's serve the dishes!"
Li Zhong clapped his hands. Immediately, ten young and beautiful maids in maid outfits came over with trays of delicacies on the table.
At the table.
Everyone ate to their hearts' content.
Li Zhong didn't talk about the purpose of the banquet right away. Instead, he chatted about his daily life.
"H.e. Wu Ming, I have admired you for a long time."
Li Sishi walked over to Wu Ming with a glass in her hand and proposed a toast to him.
Since he didn't need to drive, Wu Ming didn't abstain from drinking.
He clinked glasses with Li Sishi. He noticed that this beautiful young lady's face was rosy, which was very cute.
Finally, after three rounds of drinks.
Li Zhong put down his glass and looked at Wu Ming, Su Ying, and Gu Shaocheng with a smile.
"You three are the most talented trainers in Garan Castle. I believe that with your help, Garan Castle will be able to make it to the Top 100."
Li Zhong praised them.
Wu Ming, Su Ying, and Gu Shaocheng put down their glasses. They realized that the main topic of the night had arrived.
Seeing their actions, Li Zhong smiled.
"You three are smart people."
"You should all know that the real purpose of this National Pet and Trainer Competition is not a simple competition."
"This is a matter that concerns the entire city!"
"If Garan Castle can't make it to the Top 100, in the future, it will be divided among the major cities that are under construction."
At this point, Li Zhong's voice abruptly stopped.
Wu Ming, Su Ying, and Gu Shaocheng said nothing.
In Garan Castle, many people knew the real purpose of the National Pet Competition. In total, there were at least hundreds of them.
However, they all chose to keep it a secret.
After all, it wasn't a good time to announce it. Otherwise, it would cause chaos.
As time went by and the National Pet Competition was about to begin, the news could no longer be kept a secret.
After the National League ended, everyone in the country would definitely receive the notice.
"The three of you should know that the fate of Garan Castle is basically on your shoulders.
The fate of our Li Clan also rests on your shoulders. "
Li Zhong spoke again.
These words piqued the interest of Wu Ming and the other two.
Li Zhong did not beat around the bush and went straight to the point.
"As you all know, our Li Chaebol is from Nanjiang City. The part of the Li Chaebol in Garan Castle is just a branch."
"If the Garan Castle can't hold on and is divided, our branch in the Garan Castle will definitely be recalled by the main family."
"That would be disadvantageous to me."
"Therefore, I intend to become your sponsor."
"You can lead Garan Castle to the top 100. In the future, Garan Castle will definitely become one of the top 100 cities under construction."
"At that time, our branch will definitely be able to take advantage of the situation to rise and become a powerful support for you."
Li Zhong's voice was calm.
However, he still seemed to be a little excited as he spoke.
Wu Ming, Su Ying, and Gu Shaocheng looked at each other and understood Li Zhong's intention.
Li Zhong wanted to bet on the three of them!
"Mr. Li, are you sure you want to do this?" Su Ying's red lips moved slightly. "If we fail, your investment will go down the drain."
"I only think about success." Li Zhong waved his hand.
Gu Shaocheng smiled. "Interesting!"
Wu Ming was silent.
He suddenly felt a little pressured.
If they could not lead Garan Castle to the top 100, the hundreds of thousands of people in the city would be divided among the other cities.
Wu Ming could not help but frown at the thought of the dangerous migration process.
He looked at Li Zhong. "So, how does Mr. Li plan to support us?"
"The Li Chaebol will definitely do our best to satisfy your needs. However, once Garan Castle becomes one of the top 100 cities under construction in the future, I will also need to collect benefits."
Li Zhong was very ambitious.
He was gambling.
He was betting on the branch of the Li Chaebol in Garan Castle.
If he succeeded, the branch of the Li Chaebol would definitely rise in the future and hope to be on par with the main branch of the Li Chaebol in Nanjiang City.
If he failed, he would be recalled by the main branch.
At that time, his original position as the head of the branch would be taken away by the main branch and he would become an ordinary member of the Li Chaebol.
The difference between their identities was like heaven and earth, driving him crazy.
"I agree." Gu Shaocheng was the first to speak.
The Li Chaebol was very rich.
It would be very beneficial to get their help.
"I agree too." Su Ying nodded.
In the beginning, the Su Family and the Li Chaebol were not close. Once she agreed to Li Zhong's conditions, it would facilitate a win-win cooperation between the two families.
Seeing that Su Ying and Gu Shaocheng agreed, Li Zhong was relieved and looked at Wu Ming.
The others also looked over.
At this moment, Wu Ming became the focus of the whole room.
He gently swirled the goblet in his hand, and after a few seconds, he put it on the table.
"Of course I'm willing."
If he could get the support of the Li Chaebol in Garan Castle, his efficiency of harvesting materials and evolution points would greatly increase.
Only a fool would not want such benefits.
"Good!"
Li Zhong smiled.
He raised his goblet, "Come, let me toast everyone. I hope that the three trainers will bravely move forward and lead Garan Castle to the top 100 and successfully get the list of key cities to be built."
"Cheers!"
Everyone raised their goblets.
…
10: 30 PM.
The banquet ended.
Wu Ming, Su Ying, Gu Shaocheng, Li Zhong, Li Sishi, Ye San Niang, and a few other assistants came together to a basement.
Looking at the dazzling array of materials on the shelves, Wu Ming smiled.
"You actually have Transcendent Fruits and Thunder Fruits … Eh, you even have Flame Fruits and Ice Fruits. Not bad!"
Wu Ming looked at these materials and was in a good mood.
With these things, he could concoct more Class D evolution food.
"These are all small things. For us businessmen, they are just tools to make money. H. E. Wu Ming, if you need them, I can sell them to you at a discount."
Li Zhong said with a smile.
They had signed the agreement.
The two sides were in a cooperative relationship.
However, if they wanted to take things away, they would have to pay. This was to leave a mark of cooperation and prevent one side from going back on their word.
"No problem."
Wu Ming looked at the various precious materials on the shelves with a burning gaze. He casually picked a dozen of them and took them away with only a little more than one million.
"Right, when the beast tide attacked the city, where did the corpses of the ferocious beasts go?"
Wu Ming asked curiously.
Even if they were just ordinary beasts with no rank, their bodies could be converted into evolution points.
"They were divided among the major corporations and families. The rest of the useless things were made into pet food."
Li Zhong had a good understanding of this.
"I see!"
Wu Ming nodded, a bit disappointed.
It seemed that he couldn't get a free ride.
