But he was also shocked because his fate changed right before his eyes.
With her support, Dorothy completed her preliminary research ahead of schedule and was recognized and recruited by Rhine Life. After joining Rhine Life, she was asked for help by the desperate Hemer, and learned about the Balrog incident, which she should not have known about, let alone participated in. In the end, she told him about the incident.
Fate is shifting, and the shift is getting bigger and bigger, and it has reached another turning point.
There is no doubt that whether they have enough time to prevent the outbreak of the Balrog incident, the fate of Dorothy, Hemer and others has changed. This means that the so-called force majeure historical correction that exists above everything does not actually exist.
They are fully capable of shaping their own history.
The chances of saving the world have increased.
Of course, practice speaks louder than words. Before he could reach the sea immediately, Roy decided to start with the Rhine Life Flame Demon incident and try to completely change his fate.
Therefore, he did not stop Dorothy from contacting Ferdinand. Since Roy could not participate, the only person in Rhine's life who was capable of competing with the governor was undoubtedly Ferdinand, even though he was equally dangerous.
"Who called you just now?"
As if attracted by Roy's extremely fluctuating emotions, Skadi walked up and asked.
The last time she saw Roy with such an excited expression was when he met Kal'tsit.
It turned out that the lady was indeed extraordinary. Many of her insights were so profound that even I, who had received orthodox education from Agor, felt that I only understood half of them.
Why this time?
Roy replied: "A friend from Columbia. I invested in her scientific research project, and she just brought me good news."
"What good news?" Skadi asked.
Roy laughed and said, "Their company is going to explode."
"........" Skadi took a step back calmly and looked Roy up and down as if she was meeting him for the first time.
This doesn't sound like good news.
Roy was embarrassed that his joke was taken seriously, so he quickly explained:
"It was a physical explosion. Their company is conducting illegal human experiments, and there is a high possibility of accidents. I have asked my friends to contact people to stop them."
Skadi frowned when he heard that.
She is really too sensitive about the words "human experiments".
The birth of the Deep Sea Hunters was due to Agor's biological transformation technology, that is, human body transformation. The ghost shark Laurentina she saw in Rhodes Island had fallen into a half-crazy state, had forgotten her and her own mission, and the reason why she became like that was because she was subjected to inhumane human experiments by the Deep Sea Cult. Now she heard about human experiments again.
She subconsciously felt a strong sense of disgust, so she asked on the spot:
“Is Columbia far from here?”
Roy was stunned. What? Are you planning to kill him and give Rhine Life a little deep-sea shock?
There is no need to do so. Not to mention that there is too little intelligence in Columbia, who knows how deep the water is. Not all the people in Rhine's life are bad people. What if something goes wrong and hurts innocent people?
We can't treat all scientists in the world as bad people just because one scientist did something bad, right?
Fortunately, before Roy tried to explain the composition of the Rhine to Skadi, the receptionist at the Originium Cloud Hand Sanitizer Daily Necessities Company finally knocked on the door of the waiting lounge.
"Sir, your appointment has arrived."
"The boss is waiting for you on the fifth floor."
Volume 1: Today I received the room
With the help of my family and my own efforts, I finally took possession of the first house I bought today.
I spent more than 80 yuan in total, and the subsequent renovation is estimated to cost another or yuan. The house sounds like a bottomless pit. But no matter what, it is my own house that I bought with the money I saved bit by bit.
I got a room today, and after that I went out to celebrate with my classmates. I'll take a day off.
Next, I will continue to work hard on writing and making money for decoration!
Volume 1: Chapter 245 The boss of online ordering is actually a girl
The fifth floor is not the top floor of the company, but it has the best lighting and scenery. The sunlight shines softly into the office through the French windows, and the spacious space seems to be warmer under the soft light. The design of the president's office is simple and elegant, without complicated decorations, but every detail reveals extraordinary taste. Even laymen can feel the care put into it.
The office is dominated by white, with pure white walls and ceilings that exude a fresh and refined atmosphere. The wall lamps embedded in the walls emit simulated natural light, lighting up the three-dimensional photos on the walls that are full of technology. The desks are designed by famous designers, with dark brown wooden desktops that are as smooth as a mirror. Several simple drawers are seamlessly embedded in them. They are not locked, but no one dares to open them.
An ultra-thin silver laptop is placed in the center of the desk, matched with a black high-back swivel chair, the leather material gleaming in the sun. A row of tall green plants is placed by the window, adding a touch of vitality to this office composed almost entirely of cold colors.
The boss sitting in the high-back chair is like a dazzling star. She is young and beautiful, with confidence and determination in her brows. Her silver-gray hair is lightly tied behind her head, revealing her dignified but cold face. Even though she is wearing a dark blue business suit with a pure white silk shirt, it does not affect her temperament at all, but makes her look simple and elegant. She is wearing a dark blue pencil skirt on her lower body. This tight skirt is popular among capitalists and scientists in Columbia. It is simple in design and fits the body shape, just right to outline her graceful figure. The length of the skirt is moderate, down to the knee, showing an intellectual and fashionable temperament. Her legs are wrapped in exquisite black stockings, matched with a pair of classic black high heels. The high heels make her height not shorter than men, which highlights her unyielding character.
She sat there, her eyes switching back and forth between the computer screen and the keyboard. The sound of her fingers tapping the keyboard was intermittent, as if she was not very familiar with the process, which was a bit rigid and deliberate. After the secretary knocked on the door, she looked up, pressed the button beside her, and unlocked the door.
"Hey, Boss! Does this count as our first offline date...eh?"
As soon as Roy entered the door, he greeted everyone very loudly, in order to cover up some of his embarrassment - he had actually never seen Xuantie.
Roy's predecessor may have met him, but he was not sure. But since he traveled through time, in order not to reveal his flaws in front of Xuan Tie, he almost never met with Xuan Tie offline. All orders were conveyed by the anonymous mobile phone that worked hard. Xuan Tie did not seem to have any objections to this, so Roy did not have to run away overnight, but continued to enjoy the benefits of the Wu Zhou Alliance.
The reason why he said this this time was to test whether he had met Xuan Tie before. If not, then there was nothing wrong with this sentence. If yes, Xuan Tie would think that his words were just a joke about their first meeting after "changing identities and washing his head".
But his voice suddenly stopped, and doubts and disbeliefs filled his mind.
Is this the wrong way I opened the door?
No one told me that Xuantie of the Wuzhou Alliance is a woman.
Moreover, according to the plot, Xuan Tie must be at least over a hundred years old. Even if she is really a woman, she should be an old lady like the Grand Knight Commander by now. How can she still look younger than Roy?
As if she saw the disbelief on Roy's face, "Black Iron" Selina's mouth corners slightly raised, and she was very satisfied with Roy's performance.
She reached out, opened the drawer, and took out an anonymous mobile phone that Roy was very familiar with. She pressed a few cases and placed the phone on the table.
A few seconds later, Roy's cell phone rang.
Roy took out his cell phone with a slight twitch on his lips, looked at the four letters of BOSS on the screen, and pressed the answer button with trembling fingers.
From the other end of the line came the extremely distinctive neutral electronic voice of BOSS:
"What? Why did the eloquent Qingjin Lord become silent when we first met? Or did my attitude surprise you?"
The sound on the phone was so loud that it almost gave Roy calluses. However, this time, it was mixed with the reverberation of the girl's original voice not far away. This slightly fantastical feeling forced Roy to admit a fact.
TMD, the boss who sells a voice changer online is actually a girl offline!
Seeing that Roy was speechless and had an "I'm shocked" look on his face, "Black Iron" Selina hung up the phone and couldn't help but let out a few happy laughs:
"Okay, I won't tease you anymore. Blue Gold Lord Roy, I am indeed Black Iron, but just one of them."
"The person you are more familiar with should be my father. After receiving your call, he felt that the plan to acquire Plot 0 was simply a dream, so he rejected it outright. But..."
The silver-haired girl leaned back, pulled the office chair out into an arc, then crossed her legs, clasped her hands in front of her chest, and said very proudly,
"But I'm the one running the company. I overruled him and decided to give you a chance to talk to me face to face."
"For the sake of our past friendship and my personal feelings, I can quietly reveal the topic to you. You only need to answer and convince me on the following questions, and I will agree to your plan."
"First, acquiring Plot 0 and helping the infected people there would mean that Originium Cloud would betray the Business Federation. What good would this do, other than attracting hostility from other companies?"
"Second: What did you do in Leitania? Why did the wind suddenly change so drastically in Leitania?"
"Third..." She paused for a moment and pretended to be calm before asking, "What is your relationship with Margaret Linguang and the silent Miss Skadi beside you?"
Roy was slightly startled.
If he could understand Xuantie's intention for the first two questions, then what the hell was the last question?
The first two questions, one concerns the interests of Originium Cloud, and the other concerns the future international situation and geopolitics. What about the third one? No matter how you listen to it, it sounds like Roy's personal problem, right?
Xuan Tie also likes gossip?
Roy thought for a moment and replied, "Let me answer the third question first. Margaret and I were comrades-in-arms before, and now we are colleagues. As for the rumors in the newspapers outside, they are not true."
As he said this, he tried to ease the tense atmosphere and joked,
"But Margaret is really beautiful and handsome, who can not like her?"
After saying this, he glanced at Skadi.
"As for Skadi. She is very important. She is vital to me and to all of Terra."
Xuan Tie listened expressionlessly and nodded without making any comment, which made Roy a little confused about her thoughts. He could only continue:
"As for the first question."
"Well, I don't believe you. I think your father agrees with me."
Roy's expression was very determined. This made "Black Iron" Selina raise her eyebrows with interest:
“How come you see?”
"Because I still remember that when he persuaded me to become a competitive knight to attract attention and help the Helmetless Alliance escape, the only reason he gave was—"
[The Helmetless Alliance is a group of warriors who protect and resist. 】
Even if Roy didn't say it, Selina had already heard this sentence in her mind.
She smiled slightly and nodded.
Roy was right. Her father, the real and oldest Xuantie, agreed immediately after Roy made this request. This meeting was actually specially arranged by her.
If the Dragon Slayer eventually becomes the Dragon, the No Clan Alliance doesn't need to escape, leave the Business Union and join in as Originium Cloud. The reason why Old Xuantie did this was because he was fed up with the Business Union's enslavement of the people, which was no different from the knights and nobles at that time.
There is no essential difference between mental slavery and physical slavery. As long as there are people who are still calling for change, the No Heirs Alliance will not disappear, and will not be reduced to a running dog.
They join only to gain more power, and they will betray without hesitation.
Because they are ultimately the Wuzhou Alliance, not the Originium Cloud.
"As for the second question," Roy said, "it's a long story. We can talk about it later."
Volume 1: Chapter 246: Natural Disaster Weapons
Business Federation, Joint Conference.
For a long time, the seats of the Business Federation have been basically fixed. The big capitalists and big companies that have the first-mover advantage and have taken the first bite of crabs are not so easy to be defeated. They have many ways to maintain their status, because these methods are no longer limited to the business field.
But Originium Cloud was destined to be an accident. It was just a young company established on the eve of the four-city meltdown, and started out by selling hand sanitizer products. However, in a short period of time, it quickly acquired many powerful daily necessities companies, gradually expanding its business scope to the entire daily necessities industry, and its sphere of influence was no longer limited to the Great Knight Territory, but spread to the entire Casimir.
At that time, the Business Federation did not respond to this. It was not that they did not want to, but it was an extraordinary period. The news of the invasion of the Ursus Third Army on the border had already arrived, and the entire Knight Territory was in a tense state of war. In an environment where the Business Federation could cooperate with the Supervisory Council, what was there to suppress about the rise of a daily necessities company?
Rather, the Chamber of Commerce at that time even hoped that one company could monopolize the entire daily necessities industry to facilitate them to better complete the allocation and supply of goods during the war.
However, no one expected that such an imminent surprise war would be quelled in just half a month. If it weren't for the war reports from the front and the genuine captured Ursus troops, the people of the Business Federation would probably think that this was a bad joke of crying wolf.
And when they looked back and thought about the origin of Shiyun, the rise of this company, which holds many business secrets and has grown in an advantageous environment that is difficult to replicate, has become a fact.
The chair of the Chamber of Commerce was thus forced to be handed over to Originium Cloud.
No one expected that this would be a decision that they would regret today.
"Originium Cloud requests a review of the demolition resolution for Plot Zero."
"Xuantie" Selina, who is now the person in charge of the Source Cloud Daily Necessities Group, raised her hand at the joint meeting of the Business Federation and made a statement.
As soon as she said this, it was like giving two slaps in the face to everyone who had nothing to do in this routine meeting, and it woke everyone up immediately.
The spokespeople of the big trusts that monopolized various industries all turned their eyes to the young lady who was attending the same meeting with them. Questions, dissatisfaction, doubts, and thoughts flashed across their faces. But "Black Iron" Selina seemed to be unaware of this and said calmly:
"As you all know, Originium Cloud was established very recently and is still a young company, but we are growing fast enough and have good prospects. We need a large and stable area to serve as the office space for Originium Cloud Group. I think Plot 0 is a good area."
As soon as these words were spoken, several directors showed disdainful and even sarcastic expressions.
Isn't that just bullshit? Originium Cloud was indeed established a short time ago and rose quickly, but what does this have to do with Plot 0? You need an office space. Why can't you build a building anywhere in Casimir? Why does it have to be Plot 0?
Besides, how big is a plot of land? It's several square kilometers. If you build buildings and real estate on it, it's enough to accommodate tens of thousands of Casimir people. You have so many people in a daily necessities group. Do you need such a large piece of land to build your headquarters?
Soon, someone objected:
"Director Selina's reason is somewhat unrealistic. Even if we take a step back, why didn't you make this request before the demolition plan was drawn up? Haha, I must remind you that Originium Cloud is also a member of the Business Federation. The demolition plan is a joint decision of the Business Federation's joint meeting. You'd better think about it before speaking again."
"Of course I know." Selina nodded, then changed the subject and said, "The area of a block is very large, and Originium Cloud certainly cannot complete independent development. The reason why I am here to review the demolition plan is because of another reason."
"You all must have heard of Tremont."
She glanced around at the directors, and they all nodded.
Those who can sit here are not shallow-minded people. There is no one who is unaware of the name of Tremont, the city of science and technology in Columbia and the source of development power.
But even though they knew it, except for a few directors, most of the other directors still had no idea what the name had to do with Block Zero.
At this time, it was reporter Kane who suddenly spoke up:
"Ms. Selina, do you mean to transform Block Zero into a second Tremont?"
Selina cast her eyes on the "reporter" Kane who was sitting two seats away from her. This man, who looked quite old but had dyed his hair pure black, had a faint smile on his face, and seemed to be interested in Selina's proposal. However, he did not express his attitude immediately, but asked in return,
"How can you be so confident? I know Columbia fairly well. Tremont is Tremont not just because it has a mobile city."
