Resurrection Empire

Ren Zhong shook his head, "No rush."

He was contemplating a solution.

In the past, with his temperament, the other party's calculation would have perfectly aligned with his needs.

He would definitely step forward boldly and openly declare, yes, I am going to participate in the Pu Cha, I will fight for you, willing to risk my life without regret. Although I am a wealthy businessman, I will live and die with you.

But now, he's full of concerns, and it's really difficult to take a stance.

He never expected that by evening, another change would occur.

The wild people who went out hunting today had a fierce battle among themselves, with nearly a hundred dying at the hands of other wild people.

These people who killed outside then stubbornly held their heads high and voluntarily surrendered to the Guard's station.

The death toll was too high, and the scale of violence too large. Ma Xiaoling couldn't turn a blind eye, so she simply had them all escorted to a small square at the slum-White Wall border for a public trial.

When Ren Zhong arrived, one of the leaders was loudly explaining his "criminal motive."

"Starfire Town turned out this way, and Mayor Ma indeed has a part in it. He couldn't stop Yang Bingzhong, and that is his fault. But the chief culprit is Yang Bingzhong, not Mayor Ma. These rumors outside treat us like fools!"

"Right!"

Another similarly detained wild person backed him up.

The previous intelligent wild person with decent communication skills continued, "And, President Ren taking over Yang Bingzhong's industry, that's President Ren's skill. We all know well who President Ren is. He treats us well, which we can clearly feel. President Ren has done everything he can, he's trying hard to help us survive."

The man took another deep breath, "He is a noble Citizen, and there's no reason for him to participate in a life-and-death combat test for us! These rumors are conspiracies, intended to plot against President Ren! The people we killed took dirty money from outside, spreading rumors everywhere, trying to avenge that scum Yang Bingzhong! I just want to kill them! Sentence me to death!"

"Right!"

"Exactly!"

Not everyone could truly believe what the man on stage was saying.

Many were just following along mindlessly.

But what else could the wild people do?

No one truly believed that a Second Level Citizen would risk everything in a Pu Cha for a group of unrelated wild people.

Saying so, it was just to make themselves feel better during the few stable days they had left.

Perhaps if President Ren knew, he might be pleased and reward their family with something.

Ren Zhong listened from afar, feeling somewhat conflicted.

The man probably hadn't read much, his speech was confused and scattered, his choice of words childish, and his values not quite right, but Ren Zhong could understand the sentiment.

If you treat us well, we will not betray you.

Even if that good is just basic kindness, just slightly lowering the intensity of oppression, but good is good.

The wild people wanted so little.

Their standards for satisfaction were so low.

Over there, the man's "speech" continued.

"Even if we can't pass this Pu Cha, it's okay. If we don't pass, we don't pass. Anyway, isn't there a town being abolished every year on Source Star? If it's our turn, we accept it. But at least now we can earn a bit more money with President Ren. Even if we end up outside, we still have a chance to survive. I am not afraid!"

The rumor didn't mention the step where Citzen voting turns wild people into commodities.

Apparently, the Mengdu Group didn't want to ignite panic to an uncontrollable degree, which would only benefit the Hunters, and the number of samples they could obtain would significantly decrease.

Below, the crowd was somewhat incited.

Some agents lurking among the wild people exchanged glances.

They were just following orders to do their job, unaware of the direction things were heading.

But clearly, this wasn't the situation those above wanted to see.

These people were already planning for life after leaving the town.

Wouldn't they all become Hunter's prey?

This is only the first day, the "one to one" plan hasn't even been launched, how could it fall through prematurely?

If botched up, could the promises from the big figures still be fulfilled?

Ma Xiaoling clearly had little experience handling such an excited crowd.

At this moment, Ren Zhong finally stepped onto the stage.

With his appearance, all eyes from the wild people naturally focused on him.

He wore a gentle smile.

He slowly said, "The Pu Cha indeed looks grim. But so far, I have no intention of giving up on Starfire Town. This is where I started, and you are my first batch of freelance employees. I am going to undertake a grand enterprise on Source Star, make the most money, become the richest businessman, and you are an important part of my future business empire."

"Therefore, I will find a way to handle the Pu Cha, it's just a matter of spending more money. I have money. I have only one request from you, work hard, double your efforts. The more money you make for me, the more potential value you show, the more I will value you."

"Hahaha, if it's really necessary. If I need to, I'd spend tens of billions to fully upgrade the equipment to fight for you guys."

Ren Zhong said with a smiling face.

The Mengdu Group and Purple Crystal Mining could lie to the wild people.

Ren Zhong could certainly also "lie."

He meticulously crafted his dialogue and tone, giving a seemingly ambiguous so-called promise in a teasing manner.

After he finished speaking, the audience was first silent, then erupted into excitement.

Some believed him, others thought he was talking nonsense, instinctively wanting to mock and criticize him as being as despicable as Yang Bingzhong, but couldn't voice it because they indeed bought weapons at half price at the Military Weapon Store daily.

Ren Zhong on stage "enjoyed" the wild people's adoration, while nervously waiting for two minutes, the Hunters didn't come, and no warning received in his wrist watch.

Good, it was a success.

He acted just like a genuine Citizen, a cold-blooded, full-of-lies merchant.

Without doubt, in the estimation of the "Net," he was lying to the wild people, his purpose just to drain more till the end of the Pu Cha.

Alternatively, he might be trying to prove a new highly efficient management model to the Tanggu Group.

But he definitely wouldn't truly represent the wild people in battle.

Only those who extremely understood him might comprehend his true intentions.

Ma Xiaoling gaped in astonishment, staring at Ren Zhong.

Until she was dragged away in a daze by Ren Zhong, she hadn't regained her senses.

"You couldn't possibly be serious, right?"

Ma Xiaoling asked directly.

Ren Zhong retorted, "What are you thinking? Do you know the hunting revenue of Starfire Town these few days?"

"Huh?"

"On average, every day, the wild people bring me nearly 400,000 in hunting gains, 1.5 times what Yang Bingzhong managed initially! This is just the beginning, by latest next week, this number will double or even triple! Starfire Town is just a mere place, as long as I refine the new model here, then promote it at Chromium Carbon Town, with just a small price to pay, I can skillfully ignite the wild people's passion. Wild people at Chromium Carbon Town could bring me hunting yields worth 2 million daily! My profit margin is 100%, with annual net profit reaching six or seven billion!"

Ma Xiaoling was stunned for a long time, "Are you conducting a commercial experiment?"

"What do you think?"

"Guess my foot! Right, things aren't settled yet, I must go back..."

"No, it's already settled. Acquitted and released."

"Uh."

Ren Zhong knew that his threat index and rebellion index must have declined.

But he also wanted to say to the wild people.

Today, I have not failed you.

In the future, I hope you also won't fail me.
