Survival Game: Call Me an Honest Businessman

After meeting with Lux, Li Zhi received a message from Ying.

Ying: [I've made contact. She didn't let my people deliver it; she said she'd come to find you herself. She should arrive at Buwangwei today.]

Li Zhi: [Thanks.]

Shadow: [I don't want any payment, I just want to know the answer to one question.]

Shadow: [We discussed before about adding Emerald to your territory. Are there any Emerald seniors among your subjects who are not afraid of danger?]

Li Zhi paused in his steps.

Shadow finally realized what was happening.

Whether she asked about the Starry Sky Corridor or the portrait, these were questions that Li Zhi could not answer.

However, if one asks a lord whether a certain subject resides in their territory, the lord can answer if they are willing to.

In fact, once Ying realized this point, her answer became meaningless.

Once the list of new race lords is revealed, Shadow will automatically know the answer.

Li Zhi: [I not only wanted to invite Jade, but I also invited you, and you haven't given me an answer yet, and now you want me to ask for other people's answers?]

Shadow: [If I agree, will you tell me?]

Li Zhi: [If you recruit 10 elites to join the "Never Forget the Danger" team, I'll tell you.]

film:[? ? ? ]

Shadow: [I rarely admire anyone, not even any race, but right now I truly admire you.]

Li Zhi: [Thank you.]

Ying: [If you didn't tell me, fine. I added my sister.]

Li Zhi: [Okay~ I'm coming to the Green Market right away, you and Sister Mingchun wait for me~]

Shadow: [Isn't it possible to authorize remotely? Why did you have to come all this way? Secret Code Mark? The answer you need requires a secret code mark, so Jade has indeed joined the Unforgettable Danger, right?]

Li Zhi: [A temporary lord does not have the right to grant authorization remotely.]

Shadow: [I almost forgot...]

Shadow: [Then come on over.]

While Li Zhi and Ying were chatting, Bai Ge was also reporting on her work:

"The hotel design drawings have undergone an initial round of bidding, and ten design drawings and a list of materials have been selected according to your requirements and sent to you."

"Since the job posting was sent out at 8:00 AM, we've received 30,000 resumes. Our initial screening will likely take about two days, and the interviews are expected to take another two days. How about scheduling the final interview, which requires your participation, for the day after the wealth rankings are released?"

Li Zhi: "Let's schedule it for the day of the rankings."

Bai Ge: "Okay, I'll speed up the interview."

Li Zhi: "Is there anything else?"

Bai Ge: "There's one more thing. We're in contact with the sculptor you're looking for, but they all say they don't have a portfolio right now. However, there's a sculptor who claims to be Chuan Yu, the top sculptor on Blue Star at the time. She says that if we can provide her with a stable environment and materials, she can give us a portfolio within three days."

Li Zhi's eyebrows twitched slightly: "I agree to her request."

Bai Ge: "Okay, what are you going to do next? Should I prepare dinner for you?"

Li Zhi: "No need. After I expand my territory, I'll be going out again. Someone will be bringing the elites on the list to my door. You can take charge of that. Just send me the list of qualified candidates when the time comes."

Bai Ge: "Okay."

Li Zhi: "Thank you for your hard work."

Bai Ge: "I'm not having a hard time, I'm used to doing this kind of thing, but others might have to work a bit harder. I suggest we have a celebration banquet on the day the rankings come out, which will coincide with the end of the interviews and the onboarding of new employees, and it'll be a good reward for everyone~"

Li Zhi transferred 100 gold coins to him: "Go and make the arrangements."

She had no time to waste and immediately chose to expand her territory.

A virtual map of the valley appeared before her eyes.

This canyon is only about 10 acres in total.

Li Zhi now has an 8000-square-meter area to be designated, which completely covers the entire canyon plain and even extends to the hilltop behind it.

She dragged a dotted line to include the back mountain, which was approximately 8000 square meters.

Li Zhi made his decision.

[Reserve Area Successfully Designated]

[Territory Expansion Underway with a Vigilant Mindset...]

[Congratulations to Lord Li Zhi (Give me back my 3-star, 5-cost weapon!!!) on the successful expansion of his territory]

At the moment when Li Zhi successfully expanded the project.

A miniature image of a constant vigilance appeared before her eyes.

Every inch of land, every person coming and going, every move is taken into her eyes.

Moreover, she also sensed the restlessness in several mountain ranges outside her territory, caused by their expansion without regard for danger.

The mountains trembled.

Many wild animals emerged from the forest, underground, and caves, looking in the direction of the danger.

Li Zhi even saw the large Pallas's cat.

She actually moved, to the mountains next to hers, and lived in a large cave that was almost the same height as her spaceship.

Looking further out, Li Zhi actually saw many trial areas among the rolling mountains, and trial participants of different levels. Then, he saw a lake hidden in the very center of the mountains.

The lake water was emerald green, with gentle ripples.

It has a very large area.

Li Zhi wanted to see further, but he felt his mental energy rapidly draining away, and his head was starting to ache.

The next second, the panoramic view also disappeared.

Li Zhi rubbed his temples and checked the player panel:

[Spirit: 1/47.5]

It almost got completely wiped out!

She could see other places not because Li Zhi was a lord who was not afraid of danger, but because she was the heir to the Emerald Mountains.

However, to have a comprehensive view of the situation, she would need to use her mental power before she had fully claimed the land of the Emerald Mountains.

Although she felt her mental energy draining while in the Starry Sky Corridor, she still had 20 points of mental energy left when she was ejected.

Unexpectedly, just one glance at the mountains outside the map caused a loss of 26 points of mental energy!

Li Zhi took out a bottle of energy drink and walked up the mountain while drinking it. When he passed the small exchange, he saw that Greedy Pass was still dutifully broadcasting live.

"In just 30 minutes, the price of Apocalypse Dust has dropped another 3 points! The current price of Apocalypse Dust is 15.6 silver per 0.1 unit. As you can see, the entrance to the exchange is already crowded with traders of different races, who are looking at and selling Apocalypse Dust."

"Please don't rush, queue in an orderly manner, and remember that the exchange assures everyone that during business hours, every transaction will be acquired at the real-time price."

As soon as the words "pass for those who are greedy for life" were spoken, the people in line became even more anxious.

"It's dropped again! Hurry up, those in front!"

"Every second is money!"

"Don't push! Don't push! Line up!"

Li Zhi, wearing a mask and a cloak, calmly walked through the crowd.

Before heading up the mountain, I heard someone shout, "Everyone, don't get excited! It's fallen so sharply now, it should be a buying opportunity! As long as the microcrystalline energy converter is still being produced, Tianqi Micro Dust will eventually rise again, don't be too impulsive!"
