The atmosphere in the living room of Villa No. 1 was somewhat quiet.

Li Haotian snapped out of his daze, staring at the empty air in front of him, his fingers unconsciously tapping on the sofa armrest.

"interesting."

He muttered to himself.

This is the first time someone has been able to block out his hive mindset and even sever the connection.

The little black cat lying at his feet lazily raised its head, its silver vertical pupils glancing at him as if to say, "That's it?"

"Boss, what happened?"

Su Wan walked over with a freshly brewed cup of tea and noticed the change in Li Haotian's expression.

Li Haotian took the teacup and took a sip.

"There's a mouse trying to steal my cheese."

He succinctly described everything he had just seen from the worker bee's perspective.

Su Wan's expression immediately turned serious.

"Collecting alien remains...extracting monster gene fluid...they're doing reverse engineering!"

Her A-level talent, "Supercomputing Thinking," was instantly activated, and countless data streams flashed wildly in her brain.

"Judging from the target's counter-reconnaissance capabilities and mental shielding field, the other party is definitely backed by an organization with top-notch technological support."

"Go check."

Li Haotian placed the teacup on the table, his tone indifferent.

"Go through all the cleaning companies in Binhai City, and then screen the multinational biotech companies that have recently had large-scale financial irregularities."

"clear."

Su Wan didn't ask any more questions. She immediately turned around, walked to the side, picked up her encrypted terminal, and began to operate it.

She returned in less than ten minutes.

"Boss, I've found it."

"A multinational company called 'Biotech Frontiers,' headquartered in West Virginia, recently moved $500 million through offshore accounts at its branch in Coastal City."

"This company appears to be engaged in gene therapy research and development, but in reality, it is the front man for Noah's Ark, the largest military-industrial complex in the West."

Su Wan spoke quickly and clearly.

"The cleaner's identity has also been confirmed. He is the chief researcher at the Asia-Pacific laboratory of 'Frontiers in Biotechnology,' codenamed 'The Collector.'"

"A military-industrial complex?"

Li Haotian raised an eyebrow.

"They have a strong background."

A hint of worry appeared on Su Wan's face.

"Boss, if we take direct action against an opponent of this caliber, it will likely cause us a lot of trouble."

Li Haotian smiled.

"Who said we were going to fight?"

He leaned back on the sofa and shifted into a more comfortable position.

"We are legitimate businessmen; fighting and killing is so undignified."

"It's a good thing to have customers come to our store when we're doing business. It means our products are competitive in the market."

Su Wan was stunned.

She couldn't keep up with Li Haotian's train of thought at all.

Li Haotian stretched and spoke to the air.

"System, generate a batch of alien remains for me, the kind that were just ripped off the battlefield, missing limbs or broken legs."

[Command received. Please set the gene template.]

"Template, huh..."

Li Haotian stroked his chin, a playful smile curving his lips.

"Lock up my gene chain and implant a self-destruct program. If any external force attempts to analyze the gene sequence or clone it, let it automatically degrade into a puddle of... well, the most flavorful biological sludge."

"Oh right, let's just make up a fake evolutionary path and put it in, make it sound fancy, like the 'Omega Sequence,' it sounds impressive."

[Gene template has been generated. Confirm?]

"Confirmed. Give me 100 kilograms, packed up."

After doing all this, Li Haotian looked at Su Wan, who was already petrified beside him.

"Su Wan, there's a method to doing business."

"Since the customer wants it, we'll sell it to him. However, the genuine product is too expensive, and it involves core technology that can't be shared."

"So, we can sell him some... high-quality replicas of 'original goods'."

Su Wan felt like her CPU was about to burn out.

"Boss, you mean... sell these 'specially made' remains to 'Biotechnology Frontier'?"

Bingo.

Li Haotian snapped his fingers.

"Find a middleman on the black market and inflate the price for me. Just say it's a rare, out-of-print item stolen from the 'Alien Overlord's' lair, take it or leave it."

Su Wan took a deep breath, forcing herself to calm down.

"I understand. I'll take care of it right away."

"No rush."

Li Haotian called out to her.

"There's one more thing."

"Let's add a new feature to 'Tianjige': VIP membership."

"What?"

"From now on, the 'Alien Security' service will only be available to VIP members. In particular, high-ranking units of Corruptor level and above will be prohibited from being rented by non-members."

Li Haotian explained.

"To become a member, you need to verify your assets first. If your personal assets are less than one billion US dollars, or you are not a Fortune 500 company, don't even think about downloading the application form."

"this……"

Su Wan hesitated.

"Won't this shut out a lot of customers?"

"That's exactly the effect I wanted."

Li Haotian picked up his teacup and said leisurely.

Our motto is: Paid knowledge, exclusive copyright. Want to get something for free? Want to steal our technology? No way!

"This is telling everyone that if you want to use my stuff, you have to follow my rules."

Su Wan looked at Li Haotian, her eyes filled with even deeper awe.

This is no longer just a simple business strategy.

This is using commercial means to establish an absolute order barrier dominated by him.

……

Two days later.

Xizhou, the headquarters of "Frontiers in Biotechnology", is an S-level laboratory located deep underground.

The atmosphere was enthusiastic.

A dozen top scientists dressed in white sterile gowns are gathered around a huge glass container.

Inside the container, hundreds of kilograms of dark, grotesque alien remains were submerged.

An elderly man with blond hair and blue eyes, who was the head of the laboratory, was trembling with excitement as he looked at the data coming back from the testing screen.

"My God! Perfect genetic structure! This is simply a masterpiece of the Creator!"

"Look here, the 'Omega Sequence'! I'm sure this is the secret to their infinite evolution!"

The “collector” standing next to him, the man disguised as a cleaner, asked calmly.

"How much did it cost?"

"Three hundred million US dollars!"

The person in charge waved his arms and said nonchalantly.

"If we can crack their secrets, we can create our own biological army! What's three hundred million dollars?!"

"Begin the cloning experiment immediately! I want to see the first perfect clone born within twenty-four hours!"

……

Meanwhile, at Genting No. 1 Villa.

Li Haotian was lying on a deck chair in the garden, while Su Wan peeled an apple for him.

An international news report is playing on television.

"Breaking news! A serious leak has occurred at the laboratory of a well-known biotechnology company in Xizhou. According to eyewitnesses, the incident has caused an indescribable stench to permeate an area of ​​several kilometers. The company has since declared bankruptcy..."

Li Haotian took the apple Su Wan handed him and took a big bite.

"See, I told you so."

He said it indistinctly.

"Grey market goods without after-sales service are no good. They're not only a waste of money, but they also hurt your nose."

Su Wan suppressed a laugh and nodded.

Just then, her encrypted terminal beeped.

She glanced at it, and her expression turned somewhat strange.

"Boss, we've approved over thirty VIP membership applications for 'Tianji Pavilion'."

"Hmm, they're all familiar faces, aren't they?"

Li Haotian was not surprised at all.

"Most of them are conglomerates and top guilds from various countries; even Indra from 'Kyushu' has applied."

Su Wan paused for a moment, then continued.

"However, while I was organizing the list just now, I found a very strange ID."

"Oh?"

"This ID is called 'Gravekeeper,' and the identity information is encrypted and cannot be traced. However, his verification account has more than 30 billion US dollars in liquid funds, which meets our highest VIP standard."

Li Haotian became somewhat interested.

"He placed an order?"

"I'm logging off."

Su Wan's expression grew increasingly strange.

"He rented a top-of-the-line unit, 'Alien Hellfire,' for one month, and the fee has been paid in full."

"You're quite wealthy. Where should I send it?"

Su Wan took a deep breath and slowly uttered a few words.

"The delivery address is...the Imperial Mausoleum of the Pre-Qin Dynasty."
