Am I really hallucinating?

Chapter 652 Gold Miners?

"what?"

"The Inspur Society and the Pure White Society are alike, both having taken out countless loans from banks. However, the advantage of Inspur over Pure White is that the Inspur factory is not going anywhere. We have a big project coming up, so naturally we need to collect as much of the debt as possible before it becomes bad. You can't do big things without money."

Yi Yun exhaled a breath reeking of alcohol and said earnestly.

“I understand your efforts, but aren’t unauthorized personnel usually not allowed to enter here?” Lu Chongming asked again.

Yi Yun scoffed: "In Dadu, how can you collect debts without some skill and connections?"

Generally speaking, it wouldn't be the bank president personally coming to collect the debt.

However, it seems that only those capable of collecting debts can handle such a challenging "debt collection instance" as the Inspur Factory.

Lu Chongming was basically certain that the bank president was indeed one of his own.

Having someone who seems reasonably reliable as a companion makes things a little more comfortable.

Then Lu Chongming immediately began asking Yi Yun about what had happened at the Wave Factory.

"I was arguing with the people here, saying that if they couldn't pay back their money, I would dismantle and move their workshop and production line. Then this happened suddenly. It's really unlucky. These people died on the way and didn't have to pay back their debts. It's too easy for them." Yi Yun grumbled unhappily.

Speaking of this, he snapped his fingers.

The golden hounds that had disappeared before suddenly reappeared, then came to the workshop production line one after another. Through contact, they directly coated the production line with a layer of gold, then packed it up and disappeared into a golden portal.

"This……"

“It’s much easier not having to negotiate at the conference table, isn’t it? It’s a blessing in disguise,” Yi Yun said with a smile.

Yi Yun and Lu Chongming discussed what to do next.

The two objectives were found to be quite consistent.

Yi Yun also needed to find a person in charge at the Wave Factory. That guy had taken out a lot of loans, and he wanted to see him alive or dead. Even a dead person could be turned into gold for Yi Yun.

Lu Chongming also needed to search for living people for rescue.

The two set off together.

Along the way, Yi Yun's dogs would swarm around and pack up anything of even a little value.

If it weren't for the fact that this matter is still unresolved, he would probably have taken action against the entire Inspur Factory if it were declared completely obsolete.

Yi Yun is now just like Zheng Fan, trying to find some good treasures in the factory.

"This is a standard weapons production line workshop; there's nothing good here anymore," Yi Yun said, explaining the place as if he knew it quite well.

"There are no living people around here. Mr. Yi Yun, those people you just encountered, who were they...?"

“Originally, I wouldn’t have made things difficult for these ordinary workers, but as soon as they saw me, they attacked me without saying a word. They had some strange abilities that didn’t seem like hallucinations or possession. Something was off,” Yi Yun said, waving his hand.

It's not a hallucination or possession, but I suddenly have strange and unusual abilities?

"Could it be the system?" Lu Chongming said.

"A system? Oh, bro, you seem to have one too. Although I haven't seen many system owners, I've heard that systems are arrangements set up by the dark world?"

“This… well, it can’t be considered wrong.” Lu Chongming stammered.

"It's okay, bro. You're so rich, you'll be fine. This world is a little more forgiving towards people of value," Yi Yun said, offering little in the way of comfort.

"I don't have much money, actually..." "No, no, no, you're definitely valuable, extremely valuable." Yi Yun gestured towards the hunting dogs that were passionately searching for their prey. "Besides when I actively command them, my hunting dogs' underlying logic is to chase things that are 'valuable.' This value concept is basically based on me. In automatic tracking mode, you can tell how valuable the target is from their reaction."

"Is this so..."

"They can attack you relentlessly after they smell you, which means that if I weren't so smart, and if I knew your value, I would probably react the same way as those puppies, desperately crawling to you," Yi Yun said proudly.

Lu Chongming had no idea what was so great about this.

"You're the president of the Central Bank of Dadu, you shouldn't be like this," Lu Chongming said. People in that position should be very wealthy, even if they themselves aren't necessarily rich, they must indirectly control a lot of money.

“It’s really that serious…” But for Yi Yun, that’s not how it works.

As Yi Yun spoke, he sighed heavily: "Most normal economic and financial systems would have collapsed long ago. Let's try to collect as much as we can."

"Why?" Lu Chongming asked in surprise.

He didn't know much about this, but the general economic situation seemed pretty good, prices were quite stable, and there didn't seem to be any news about it.

"I don't know," Yi Yun replied, seemingly resigned to his fate.

"what?"

"I really don't know. The money in your wallet just disappears from your wallet from time to time. Do you even know why?" Yi Yun shook his head pessimistically.

Lu Chongming's face stiffened.

Ok?
He remembered that Mr. Illusion often boasted about his wealth, which seemed to be...

"But it's not a big problem. Our Golden Clan has been mining in Dadu for generations, and the savings we've accumulated can last a while longer. As long as it's not like the funds for a super spaceship suddenly disappear from our accounts, we can still afford it." Yi Yun gave a bitter and heartbreaking smile.

The funding for a super spaceship suddenly disappeared...

Lu Chongming's face stiffened even more.

The relief of finding a companion quickly turned into nervousness again.

"If it really costs me a fortune equivalent to a super spaceship, then I'll accept it. I'll go to the 'Golden World' and mine until I'm exhausted, then let the rest of my family continue mining." Yi Yun seemed to have made the worst-case scenario plan, as if he could already see the end of his life ahead of him.

"A world of gold?"

“It’s a privately owned, independent world controlled by our family,” Yi Yun replied. This wasn’t a secret. “The Golden Clan is an aristocratic family that has been passed down from the earliest days of the capital to this day. We initially made our fortune through this world. This world has nothing special but abundant gold. With our family’s now mature operating system, we can transfer the mined gold into the capital to maintain the stability of the capital’s macroeconomic system.”

"So, Mr. Yi Yun, you've actually been using your own money to cover the debts in Dadu all along?"

"Hehe." Yi Yun's laugh was more like a grimace: "Don't let my appearance fool you, I'm truly doing this for our capital."

Are you all from the gold-producing family? You sound more like gold miners.

As Lu Chongming and Yi Yun chatted, they pushed open a door in front of them, seemingly entering another area.

"Oh, it's a drone production line." Yi Yun recognized where he was just by looking at the layout.

"There are people here." Lu Chongming took out his phone, glanced at it, and then locked onto the direction.

"Is anyone here? That's great!" Yi Yun licked his lips.

Lu Chongming is now sensing the similarities between Mr. Yi Yun and his Golden Hounds.

But before that, the Golden Retrievers swarmed in and began diligently moving the empty drone production line.
