Resurrection Empire

The plans of Mengdu Group and Purple Crystal Mining fizzled out in such a way that left everyone, including Ren Zhong, Ma Dafu, and the instigators behind the scenes, astonished.

Once the survival instincts of the outsiders were reignited, the extremely vicious "One-to-One Plan" stood no chance of being implemented.

Mengdu Group's branch in Liao Yuan started to feel troubled.

Purple Crystal Mining, on the other hand, was indifferent.

After all, all Purple Crystal Mining wanted was the abolishment of Starfire Town, to build a new town near the Chenhui Mine, and to convert the land of Starfire Town into a transit warehouse.

The ultimate fate of the people in the town was of no concern to Purple Crystal Mining.

Around dusk, Ren Zhong received a communication that was unexpected yet within reason, coming from Ma Shu.

Strictly speaking, as a sole proprietorship owner, Ren Zhong and Ma Shu were not in a subordinate-superior relationship.

When he smoothly settled in Starfire Town and completed the rights registration with the Liao Yuan County Resource Recycling Company, he consequently acquired the development rights for Starfire Town for the next twenty years, similar to the rights he enjoyed in Chromium Carbon Town.

Ren Zhong's business activity rights were protected by the laws established by the Source Star Business Association.

As long as the "Net" and the Association did not strip Ren Zhong of his citizenship, and he did not violate other laws, no one, including Ma Shu, could do anything to him.

"Manager Ma, is there anything you need?"

Ren Zhong said somewhat coldly.

Ma Shu was slightly taken aback, "Nothing much. I just wanted to know what you told the Starfire Town outsiders. Are you serious about it?"

This question contained a trap.

If Ren Zhong answered that he was serious, indicating that he genuinely intended to challenge the Cold-blooded Butcher, their conversation would certainly be uploaded to the Association, and his various indexes would soar dramatically.

However, if he said he was just bluffing, merely fooling the outsiders, within a couple of days, the conversation recording between Ren Zhong and Ma Shu would reach every outsider's ears in the town.

Ren Zhong rolled his eyes.

This fool really was omnipresent, resorting to every conceivable means, and utterly shameless.

"Manager Ma, honestly, I think that's not important. I'm speaking with facts. Haven't you noticed that the output from Ruined Beasts in Starfire Town has increased significantly over the last two days? Isn't this a good thing? As you know, I'm a professional businessman. I not only dominate the stock market, but I also have my own unique methods in corporate management. Don't worry about how I do it, just look at the production."

"Besides, Manager Ma, you're the deputy general manager of Yangsheng City. We have a layer of Liao Yuan Resources Collection Company between us, yet you keep meddling in my affairs. You're quite peculiar."

"I don't believe the Telekinesis Master didn't extract the dirt on you from Yang Bingzhong. Why? Because you didn't get involved midway, only picking the fruit in Yang Bingzhong's hands at the end, which you failed to do, and now you're safe and sound? Or do you have the Alien Ore, and you're thinking of silencing me, the whistleblower?"

Ma Shu was stunned, not expecting Ren Zhong to lay all his cards on the table without any pretense, "You..."

"What about you?"

Ma Shu: "I..."

Ren Zhong: "What about me."

Ma Shu: "..."

Ren Zhong: "Did I dig up your ancestral grave or something? You first sent people to assassinate me, which I endured. Do you really think I don't know that the rumors in the town today have your handiwork behind them? What, never-ending? Let me tell you, I'm not Yang Bingzhong. I have no interest in catering to you. Go cool off somewhere else; don't get in the way of me making money."

Ma Shu was utterly bewildered by the scolding.

Meanwhile, Ren Zhong felt a sense of regret.

This isn't working.

I've spent too little time training with Brother Sun, and always feel something's off.

In the future, if possible, I should learn more skills from Brother Sun.

"You foolish idiot, get lost! Not convinced? Not convinced you should revoke my citizenship then. Otherwise, keep hiring more masters to kill me; let's see if I die. Why is it that with the same surname Ma, I find Mayor Ma and Lingling agreeable, but you're so nauseating? Could you be a mixed-blood horse? Oh, mixed-blood is also known as a hybrid. A hybrid horse?"

Having finished speaking, Ren Zhong didn't bother about the other's reaction and abruptly hung up the communication, feeling refreshed.

I'm also a citizen; why should I fear you at all?

He reflected again.

In fact, he should have turned against Ma Shu earlier; engaging in mind games with this kind of person is a sheer waste of time and life.

Just a deputy general manager of a city-level branch under Tanggu Group, not even the top leader.

Do you think I owe you something?
