Chapter 139: Night Visitor
The fact proves, never underestimate country folks.
The Dai Family is formidable in Taikoo, but there are a few families even stronger than the Dai Family.
However, on the premise that major interests are not involved, strong players tend to avoid collisions with each other.
The Dai Family, supported by the Ultimate Warrior, took action against Tanaka Yoshi, something not unknown in the wealthy circle.
People watch them stir up a storm but couldn't help but mutter a few words in their hearts, don't make Taikoo chaotic, alright?
Now, the Dai Family secretly pleads for someone to sway the situation at the Maintenance Master Headquarters, and someone immediately follows up.
It has nothing to do with justice nor with factions.
It's purely because if Tanaka Yoshi falls, the vast assets related to him will fall into everyone's pockets.
By that time, those who contributed, of course, deserve more.
Next, Tanaka Yoshi's days at the Maintenance Master Headquarters became increasingly difficult.
No matter how much money he spreads, there are still more and more rumors pointing at him.
Even other departments questioned why people from Gathering Area were able to stay so long despite Central City's strict control.
If high-level staff at the Maintenance Master Headquarters were willing to protect him, he could still hold up, but alas, there is none.
Tanaka Yoshi felt threatened and could not help but complain to his son, "It's those vultures from the wealthy district who moved!"
Tanaka Ichiro deeply knows the horror of those people, the fierce Dai Family is just one of them after all.
He turned pale, "Dad, you must protect me."
Tanaka Yoshi remained silent for a long time and then sighed, "We still have to solve the Houjing issue, that is the root."
In his eyes, the Ultimate Warriors of Houjing are terrifying, but the vultures who earnestly digest assets are even scarier.
The Ultimate Warriors only target the two of them, while the vultures will absolutely flatten his family to safely digest the assets.
At this time, Qu Jianlei and the other two had entered a stable development phase.
Due to the plagiarism issue with the draft, Dai Xingyan felt embarrassed to ask for another draft.
The three quietly stayed in the suburban area for cultivation, except for Qu Jianlei occasionally going out for maintenance work, they barely contacted the outside world.
Because their address is exposed, even Bentley had less time for outreach, most who needed repairs would directly come to them.
Time flows like water, relentless day and night, in an instant, two months passed.
The resources for cultivation were gradually consumed, and Flower Scorpion, who just stabilized the transformation agent, felt a bit pressured.
"Should I go find Dai Xingyan and take on another assassination task?"
"No need," Bentley answered indifferently, "Taking the initiative will put you at a disadvantage… she still has three Modified Warriors."
Right then, there was a knock at the door requesting a meeting, and the visitor turned out to be a representative from the new air system's manufacturer.
The visitor already knew the general situation of these three people, and didn't put on the airs of Central City.
They merely hoped to invite Jian Lei to be a special Maintenance Master, willing to allocate a few districts for his responsibility.
Monthly salary is minimal, mainly piecework, accompanied by a portion of spare parts that can be allocated.
However, repair costs go through the factory accounts, related expenses are reimbursed.
Calculating down, Qu Jianlei's income would decrease, but adding repair work, it wouldn't be too little, mainly it legitimizes things.
The manufacturer took back pricing rights, effortlessly extracting profits.
Though earning slightly less, the other party is a Modified Warrior, can't ask for more.
Nevertheless, how could Qu Jianlei agree to this?
At his weaker stage, it wasn't a bad way to earn money, but now he started cultivation!
Ordinary wealthy individuals can't afford the cultivation resources of an Ultimate Warrior, and all three of them are cultivating.
So he politely declined, "Sorry, I earn some pocket change casually."
"If nothing changes, we will always stay in Houjing, work from other places, I'm also too lazy to take."
The visitor persuaded for a while, found it useless, then turned around to leave.
After leaving, he breathed a sigh of relief, "The other side is only interested in Houjing's bit of business, so just let it go."
He never thought of recruiting them, what a joke, this is a force supported by an Ultimate Warrior.
As long as they don't reach out for more, letting go of a few districts is not a problem, this was the baseline of negotiation set by the factory.
After all, they took down Bobov's formidable individuals, while the factory may not be fearful of them, avoiding conflict is best.
That very night, Bentley, who was cultivating, raised an eyebrow and swiftly moved into the yard.
Almost at the same moment, Qu Jianlei appeared in the yard holding a Long Blade in one hand and a Gauss Machine Gun in the other.
A streak of yellow light flashed across the air, followed by a slight tremor in the ground, a small yellow javelin struck the stone pavement.
The yard they rented was indeed of high quality, the paving stones were four to five centimeters thick yet easily penetrated.
Flower Scorpion was the slowest to react, but was also startled by the commotion, grabbing a Laser Gun and heading to the shooting hole in the room.
"Should I go out?"
"No need," Bentley replied without hesitation, then spoke solemnly, "Gold Attribute Warrior."
A voice sounded outside the door, "Come out, let's talk outside the city!"
The voice wasn't loud but a bit harsh, like scraping the bottom of a pot with a spoon, making people feel uneasy.
"B-level Warrior," Bentley's face darkened, "You two watch the house, I'll go out and take a look."
