As soon as he heard Wang Baole's words, the little fat man's expression suddenly changed. In his heart of anger, he felt that the guy in front of him was really after money. How could there be such a greedy person in this world besides himself
Not only the little fat man, but also the prodigies outside, faced with Wang Baole's public asking price, looked at the boat being struck by lightning, and they all looked ugly. They didn't care about a hundred thousand red crystals, but they were being blackmailed like this. But they seemed to have to buy it, which went against their inner pride. While some felt helpless, they were also very annoyed with Wang Baole.
But there was no way. Five days seemed to be a long time, but they also knew that every time they were delayed, the possibility of successfully reaching the shore would be reduced, especially when Wang Baole flew out of the boat before, he had launched a rapid , making them very clear that the other party is not a good person.
If they join forces with each other, that's it. If they fight alone, they will most likely not be opponents, and even if they can join forces, it's hard to force them to help. Although there are many of them, they are advantageous, but after all, they are not a whole. So it is inevitable that there are various thoughts.
These thoughts flashed through everyone's minds quickly. Due to their appearance, even those who were interested were a little reluctant to be the first to bow their heads, so neither of them spoke.
Seeing this, the little fat man breathed a sigh of relief and looked at Wang Baole. Just when he was about to discuss ways to ease the atmosphere among the talents, Wang Baole also saw the entanglement of the people outside. He snorted in his heart and simply added some fuel to the fire.
"The number of people the boat can carry is limited, and the time to help is also limited. I can only catch thirty sticks in one stick of incense. If you are too slow to get on the boat, don't blame me!"
As soon as his words came out, everyone outside became anxious. This was related to the fate of the Land of Starfall. They had worked hard in their respective families and forces to obtain this qualification. If they failed because of one hundred thousand red crystals, they would not be able to do it after returning. They themselves felt that it was not worth it, so after hearing Wang Baole's time limit, how could they not be anxious? Suddenly, there was a rapid voice from the crowd.
"I buy it! One!!"
The first person to speak was a skinny young man. This person was obviously very quick-witted. He simply shouted out the numbers while speaking. In this way, even if more than thirty people spoke at the same time as him, He can still qualify.
Wang Baole also thought this guy was good, with a pleased smile on his face. Just when he was about to nod, the others were also anxious, and there were rapid sounds one after another, which were heard over a wide area in an instant.
"Bought, two!"
"Buy, three!!"
The voices that agreed with Wang Baole's quotation climbed directly to seventy or eighty in just a few breaths. However, none of the numbers shouted out exceeded thirty. Naturally, many of them conflicted with each other. Although it caused internal confusion, There were some glares, but Wang Baole was still very relieved in the face of such a heated scene.
He was happy here, but the little fat man was trembling. He now realized that it didn't matter whether he agreed or not. If he continued to be greedy for money and refused to give, the consequences could be imagined. So while everyone outside was counting the numbers, he immediately He took out a red crystal card from his pocket and quickly threw it to Wang Baole.
"Fellow Taoist, you have the greatest kindness in the world. In order to support you, I, Zhou Linfeng, was the first to agree to this!"
Taking the red crystal, Wang Baole glanced at the little fat man with a half-smile and let out a long sigh.
"I hope that everyone in the world can understand me like you do. How can I, thank you, be greedy for this little money? I am helping you, but the way of heaven is harmful to the way of humanity. I act against nature, and I must use something external to resist it. Invisible disaster.”
Looking at Wang Baole's expression of emotion, the little fat man's face twitched, secretly thinking that this person was too thick-skinned and his words were too disgusting. However, he was also flexible and flexible, and was afraid that Wang Baole would regret it, so he put on a sincere face and kept nodding.
At the same time, Li Linzi and others on the boat saw that they could still make money like this. Although they knew that Wang Baole was special on the boat, they were still a little moved in their hearts, especially Li Linzi. He was not doing it for money, but felt that if he too If you can be like Wang Baole, you can take this opportunity to gain everyone's gratitude. If it works well, it is not impossible to respond to everything in the future.
"Stupid, connections are the most important!" Li Linzi narrowed his eyes. He didn't want to offend Wang Baole too much at the moment, so he had to give up the idea of rebuking the other party to reflect on himself. After all, people outside are not stupid either. If If you have a way to let them in, then this kind of angry behavior is naturally a plus.
But if there is no other way and you just use lip service, then the suspicion of giving away a favor is too high. Not only will it not achieve your goal, but it will make people look down upon you.
Thinking of this, he stood up suddenly and suddenly spoke to the outside world.
"Fellow Taoists, Yunhan Zongli Linzi, please don't be in a hurry to pay. I want to try to see if people like me who are already on the ship can invite others to board the ship like Xie Dalu did."
"Fellow Taoists, if I can succeed, I won't ask for anything in return. By standing up this time, I have offended fellow Taoist Xie, so if I can't succeed, please don't blame me."
After listening to Li Linzi's words, everyone outside immediately responded, with gratitude and understanding in their words. Even Wang Baole squinted his eyes and glanced at Li Linzi, and his thoughts about this person in his heart instantly became clear. through.
"Is it possible to sell well in Chengdu and build a network of contacts? Li Linzi's plan is good." As Wang Baole thought, Li Linzi's eyes flashed, and after receiving support from the outside world, he turned to Wang Baole and gave Wang Baole a fist. .
"Thank you, fellow Daoist, and please don't stop my attempt!"
These words immediately made Wang Baole's heart flash with murderous intent. The other party's words were really vicious. If not, that would be fine. Although the resentment of others towards Wang Baole would not decrease, it would not continue to increase.
But as soon as this sentence came out, no matter how Wang Baole answered, it was wrong. If he stopped it, his resentment would naturally deepen. If he didn't stop it, he would have facilitated the establishment of Li Linzi's connections.
"Li Linzi's mind is spinning very fast!" Wang Baole narrowed his eyes. In fact, he was building connections by pulling people on board. He had also considered this matter, but he knew better that connections are the most stable and the most fragile in the world. The reason why the existence of the world is said to be stable is that once the exchange of needs continues, its long-lasting extent can last until the end of life.
This kind of exchange is nothing more than emotions, values and interests, etc.
And the reason why it is said to be fragile is because without exchange of connections, it is nothing more than a mirror, with little effect, and it is very likely to become a failure point!
Therefore, just pulling people on board and building connections is not enough. Once done, it is equivalent to defining a persona for yourself, and you will need to continue to make such efforts in the future.
If Wang Baole was really the genius of a big force, he would naturally have the energy to do it and the means to make it perfect, but he was not.
The resources he got are what he needs most now!
So when faced with Li Linzi's pick-up behavior, Wang Baole just smiled and said nothing, allowing Li Linzi, who was proud in his heart, to step forward and start trying to pull people in.
The outcome was obvious, and it was naturally a failure. Li Linzi felt a little depressed in his heart. After all, if he failed, although his previous words had some effect, they could not be used as a basis for establishing connections. They could only be regarded as a small foundation.
Seeing this, Wang Baole suddenly spoke.
"Do you want to give me 10 million red crystals, and I will help you bring in people from outside for free?" These words were more cruel than Li Linzi's before. After he said it, Li Linzi's body was obviously shaken, and his face instantly changed. It was ugly, and he was instantly conflicted. Naturally, he would not give out ten million red crystals in exchange for connections. He felt that it was not worthwhile, so he snorted coldly, ignored Wang Baole, and raised his fists towards everyone outside.
"Fellow Taoists, it's not that I disagree, it's just that I'm short of money..."
Although there was a response, it was obvious that the geniuses from the outside world were a little colder towards Li Linzi. Everyone was not a fool. They had seen this matter and Li Linzi's thoughts clearly before. If Li Linzi succeeded, that would be all. If it fails at this moment, it will naturally be useless to them.
And Wang Baole's words naturally had some effect.
At the same time, although he offered a very high price, it could at least be successful, so soon, the transaction of grabbing a handful of 100,000 red crystals began to proceed quickly.
Seeing this, Wang Baole glanced at Li Linzi and shook his head secretly. If the other party really agreed, then he would treat the other party as a real person. Looking at it now, it was just grandstanding.
