Chapter 311: Do You Dare?
This time, Alex and the group failed to contain themselves, as they all erupted in laughter.
The price that Michael had quoted was outrageous. It was impossible for Ethan to be able to afford such an amount of money.
Additionally, while the foundation of sky technologies was incredible, it had not yet reached the level that would require someone to spend $10 trillion to acquire it.
What would happen if something happened in between, and they ended up suffering losses? Who would compensate them, when they had invested fully on the future prospects of the company?
But they had to agree with Michael, this guy, he was very adept at bargaining. To drop the price from $10 trillion to $10 billion, that was incredible. He simply got the price by a thousand times!
Ethan’s expression darkened further, especially as he glared at the group behind Michael. He of course recognized some of those guys, as he had been the one who had sent Jack and his group to cause trouble for them.
He had given them the green light, telling them that they could do whatever they wanted with this group, as long as they did not kill them. Of course, he did not mind if they were killed, as based on their backgrounds, there really was nothing that they could do to him.
Anyway, if matters escalated beyond what he might have anticipated, there was always a scapegoat. Anyway, There was no evidence that he had not instructed anyone to go and beat up Alex and the others.
Regardless, the reason behind him asking him Jack and his group to cause some problems for Alex and the others was because he had investigated before. In this entire city, it was only Alex and his group that was quite close to Michael.
Of course, that was talking about people of the same age group as him. At least, they shared many interests, and from the information that he had acquired while in Brenton City, it was clear that they had been hanging out together for quite a number of times.
He did not like the fact that they were laughing at him. Did they take him for a clown? At this point, in his heart, he decided, after he was done dealing with Michael, he would deal with them.
So, he did not pay attention to them, instead, he just focused on Michael. From the attitude displayed by Michael, and the price that he had quoted, it was clear that he had no any intention of selling Sky Technologies.
This was something that he had already anticipated before coming over. After all, everyone could clearly see that sky technologies had a bright future. Who would be willing to give it away at the moment like this?
At the moment, the price of Sky Technologies was low. But In about a month, the price would definitely shoot up by a certain margin. And if he could wait for a year or two, the price might have multiplied by at least three or four times, even 10 times!
This was exactly why Ethan was so inclined on purchasing sky technologies.
When he was coming to Brenton City, at that time, he had not yet acquired the full information on Michael. It was just a few days ago when he was here that he finally managed to obtain the information.
It was then that he knew that it would not be that easy to be able to obtain Sky technologies. He was obviously informed about the fact that several people had already tried to acquire sky technologies, but they had all failed.
This was exactly why he came here fully prepared. This time, he was planning to go all out, to make sure that by the time that he got out of this shooting range, he would be the new owner of Sky Technologies.
Therefore, he did not mind allowing Michael and his group to be happy for a moment. Because the moment that things got serious, they would be crying.
As for what back in Michael had, Ethan did not care anymore. In any case, no matter how big it was, would it be capable of handling the blood reapers syndicate?
Even if it was big, would it be possible for it to be able to cleanly deal with the blood reapers syndicate? Why would they risk suffering losses, just because they had lost a company?
Therefore, he believed, as long as he did not go too far, and did not kill Michael, things would not escalate out of control. But today, no matter what, before getting out of here, he had to make sure that he acquired Sky Technologies.
Otherwise, Ethan understood that if he failed today, it would be impossible for him to be able to acquire it in the future. Definitely, Michael would be much more prepared the next time that Ethan came to him.
So, Ethan took a step back, before waving his hand. Immediately, the group of men in suits behind him approached Michael and the rest of the group, completely surrounding them.
Jack, who was observing on the side, felt thrilled. It seemed that this time, Ethan was going to deal with not just Michael, but even Alex and the rest of the group.
For him, it would be much better if Ethan would end up killing Alex and the others. That way, this city would be left for him to dominate.
As for the possibility of Michael being able to deal with this group of men, he did not even think about it. In any case, he had been able to deal with his underlings, because they were not skilled fighters.
But just gazing at those men, it was clear that they were all skilled fighters. The air around them, and their demeanor, they were all intimidating.
“Hey, why don’t you look at what I’m holding in my hand? Who is going to be the first one to come at me? That is of course if you are not afraid of a bullet.” Michael said as he waved the gun in his hand.
All this time, Ethan had been focusing on Michael himself, and did not pay attention to what he was holding in his hand. But now, realizing that there was a gun in Michael’s hand, he frowned.
But then, his expression returned to calmness as he said, “So what if you have a gun? Do you think that you can take them all out with just a single gun? I don’t know you are gun handling skills, but definitely, you cannot deal with all of them if they attack at the same time.
I would advise you not to attempt using the gun. Because the moment that it is taken from you, your fate will be much worse than what I have planned.”
“Why don’t you try me?” Michael simply shrugged as he responded with a faint smile on his face.
Of course, while Ethan was not paying attention, that did not imply that his group of men had not. The moment that they entered, and the conversation going on between Ethan and Michael, the understood that Michael was the target.
But they noticed the gun in Michael’s hand, which made them feel dreadful. If that really was a gun, then it would be problematic to deal with this youngster.
But then again, they had dealt with quite a number of people, and some, while holding real guns, they did not have the courage to shoot.
Looking up Michael, he seemed to be in his teenage years. Since that was the case, he definitely did not have the courage to shoot, right?
With most of them having convinced themselves this way, the moment that Ethan waved his hand, they confidently surrounded Michael and the rest of the group.
As for the other few who were not sure about what to do, seeing the majority of them moving, they followed suit. At least, there was power in numbers.
But now, upon hearing Michael daring them, most of them felt scared. They might be seasoned fighters, but in front of a bullet, what could they do?
No matter how skilled they were, it only took a single bullet to the head, and they might end up dead. If not for the fact that they were part of the blood reapers syndicate, they would have definitely retreated.
Who in their right minds would be willing to be paid just a few thousand dollars a month, just to risk their lives? At least, even if they did not do this job, there were other job opportunities out there.
While those jobs might not be give lucrative incomes, at least, they would not have to risk their lives. In any case, the money that they earned was not enough for them to risk their lives.
But they understood, the moment that they joined blood reapers syndicate, they were bound to die for it one day. After all, each one of them, there was something or someone that they had to care for.
If they decided not to take action right now, and Ethan ended up suffering some losses, or even dead, the blood reapers syndicate would definitely hunt them down.
And at that time, it would not just be them, but their families, friends and relatives would also be involved.
This was a method that was used by the blood reapers syndicate, and in some situations, they had been the ones that had been sent to complete the task.
“Beat this kid up for me. Make sure you count how many bones you have broken. The one who breaks the most bones will receive a bonus from me!” Ethan shouted, a faint smile on his lips.
