“Let me formally introduce myself. My name is Luo Long, from the Luo Family, one of the shareholders of Life Science Group.”

Luo Long wore a humble expression, yet his words were quite arrogant. Life Science is a giant on the mother star, with a power comparable to a top-tier Mountain Gate.

Or rather, it is essentially controlled by many Taoist Mountain Gates, masterminding everything from behind the scenes, with immense power.

“Oh, the Luo Family? I’ve heard of it; seems pretty good,” Wang Xuan nodded.

Although it falls two or three tiers below the Li Daoming family, it is still a family not to be underestimated, likely with a couple of True Immortals overseeing it.

Seeing Wang Xuan’s face devoid of surprise, Luo Long was rather amazed. His own background is quite illustrious, one could say he was born with a silver spoon.

Typically, upon hearing it, people would display an expression of awe, and even most Earth Immortals would avoid provoking them.

Luo Long, knowing quite a bit about Wang Xuan’s background, was annoyed. He thought Wang Xuan was too pretentious. Wang Xuan had no so-called family backing, and his cultivation level could only be said to be passable.

Such an upstart, facing him, the young master, actually had the audacity of looking down on him.

“You should be clear about my purpose in seeing you.” Luo Long smiled, showing no trace of dissatisfaction.

His educational background is quite rich, naturally inheriting a wealth of business skills from the Luo Family, and his mask of pretension is quite polished.

Wang Xuan naturally knew this person’s purpose, as this young master exerted considerable effort infiltrating the Changsheng Group, gathering some commercial secrets, which is precisely why he decided to make a move to acquire it.

He looked at Luo Long with interest and said, “I am well aware that you want to acquire Changsheng Group. Its value is far higher than it appears because the laboratory has quite a few achievements.

Since you wish to acquire it, may I know your conditions?”

“Two hundred billion Star Yuan, I want to acquire all shares of the Changsheng Group and its laboratory,” Luo Long said.

Wang Xuan shook his head, “You’re not sincere. The fixed assets of Changsheng Group alone amount to a hundred billion. Do you think I should fear Life Science Group and the Luo Family, and hand over the company on a platter?”

“How much do you want? You can name your price,” Luo Long said arrogantly. The Luo Family is very wealthy; Changsheng Group is a goose that lays golden eggs, worth spending money to acquire.

“A trillion perhaps. If you offer that price, I can give you the Changsheng Group, and the laboratory as well,” Wang Xuan said blandly.

With a trillion Star Yuan, he could rebuild both the laboratory and the Changsheng Group. As for the laboratory technologies, they could be researched again, and a trillion could expand the laboratory tenfold.

Luo Long slammed the teacup onto the table with a snap, angrily standing up, “Are you playing with me?”

“If you want to buy it, that’s the price. If you can’t afford it, don’t come to Changsheng Group to negotiate acquisitions,” Wang Xuan took a sip of tea, his expressionless demeanor making Luo Long even angrier.

Luo Long shouted, “Since we’re talking business, show some sincerity! For Changsheng Group alone, I can offer two hundred billion Star Yuan, and for the laboratory, I’ll offer three hundred billion, a significant premium.

Is this price sincere enough?

You founded Changsheng Group to make money, didn’t you? If not for money, why venture into the business domain?

With money, you will have enough resources for cultivation, won’t you?”

Wang Xuan nodded, “Now, there’s some sincerity. Five hundred billion—two years ago, I might have considered selling, as that’s really a colossal sum.

However, as you said, I didn’t establish Changsheng Group to make money, whether or not it brings me profit is irrelevant.

Because I have money, a lot of money.

So negotiating money with someone like me, who doesn’t care about it, is utterly meaningless.”

Luo Long wanted to laugh because very few dared proclaim they were wealthy and indifferent to money in front of him.

But deep down, he felt somewhat helpless because in business, the last thing you want is someone unconcerned with money, someone who might have founded a company just for fun.

“It seems we have nothing further to discuss,” Luo Long got up, feeling it was time to leave.

Wang Xuan sensed the change in Luo Long’s mood, knowing this guy hadn’t given up on acquiring Changsheng Group, and even harbored some bad intentions. He stood up to see him off and cautioned, “

Don’t come again, I’m quite busy and have no time to entertain you; it really wastes my time.

I also don’t have the energy to clean up if you play any tricks; if you make me unhappy with any crooked ideas,

I won’t bother with any formalities, I’ll simply kill you, that’s my first choice, remember that.”

Wang Xuan patted Luo Long’s shoulder, locking eyes with him, his Spiritual Power pressing down. Luo Long’s Innate Cultivation soul was far weaker than Wang Xuan’s, only capable of enduring with difficulty.

Luo Long’s mind briefly went blank, and when his consciousness cleared, seeing Wang Xuan’s faintly smiling gaze, he felt his hair stand on end.

Because if Wang Xuan had wanted to kill him just now, it would have been easy, in his momentary lapse, he was powerless to resist.

“Zhang Sheng, see Mr. Luo out.” Wang Xuan gestured.

Luo Long left Changsheng Group emotionless, but his body was covered in cold sweat, a testament to the pressure from Wang Xuan, the threat to his life.

After he left, Wang Xuan quickly convened a company meeting, gathering all the thousand-plus members of Changsheng Group, having everyone drop what they were doing and assemble in the conference hall.

A huge crowd looked at Wang Xuan on stage; the number of people showcased the scale of Changsheng Group.

“I am Wang Xuan, the Chairman of Changsheng Group; you may have heard of me, though we rarely meet.

The New Year is approaching, and work is entering the final stages. You all have worked hard for months and will receive a very generous year-end bonus. This is your reward for diligent work.
