CHAPTER 512: CHAPTER 195 YES, I WANT TO CHALLENGE THE BUTCHER, I’M ARROGANT
Ma Shu: "You..."
Ren Zhong: "Your mom is dead."
Ma Shu: "What the hell... I..."
Unexpectedly receiving a harsh scolding, Ma Shu was left with nothing but confusion and anger in his mind alongside the question marks.
On the other side, Ren Zhong had already withdrawn, "I’m Ren Zhong. The assassin you arranged has already surrendered to me and clearly explained the details of your deal."
"Impossible! The person I found... what are you talking about?"
Ma Shu was quick to react.
He was almost tricked by Ren Zhong into revealing the goods.
Seeing that Ma Shu was already on guard, Ren Zhong no longer played tricks and changed his tone, "Ma Shu, it doesn’t matter whether you admit it or not. But the person is indeed in my hands. I will remember this grudge."
Ma Shu was silent for a moment.
He could certainly hear the threatening tone of Ren Zhong.
To be honest, at this moment, Ren Zhong was merely a small-town level resource recycling company owner, far from his status and position, he wasn’t afraid.
What truly worried him was how Ren Zhong confirmed so quickly that he was the one who hired the hitman and even found out his private communication code.
Ma Shu was puzzled. Clearly, he had always only contacted Yang Bingzhong on a single line. Besides Yang Bingzhong and the Telekinesis Master, no one knew he had a hand in the alien ore business indirectly.
Previously, when Yang Bingzhong was under investigation, he had already revealed him.
But he was only the introducer, and the transaction wasn’t fully completed, so it eventually came to nothing.
He hired an assassin for two reasons.
If Ren Zhong could be eliminated, that would be the best outcome; he could arrange new people to take over the development rights and business of Chromium Carbon Town and make a little profit on the side.
Even if the assassination failed, he could still speculate Ren Zhong’s real professional strength based on the assassin’s response, giving him some assurance.
In the end, it backfired, exposing himself.
Did I provoke the wrong person?
Ren Zhong isn’t an ordinary desolate human; is there an organization behind him?
Did Ren Zhong appear in Starfire Town because he was planning for alien ore?
But there’s no reason for this. The Telekinesis Master would certainly interrogate him. Since he was released without charge and his citizen level was raised by one level, it shows that he absolutely has no problem.
So where is the problem?
Who on earth is this person?
Ma Shu was thinking hard, with a million questions in his mind.
On the other side, Ren Zhong seemed to lose patience, "Alright, Ma, you can continue pretending to be confused while knowing full well. We’ll see in the future."
Ma Shu finally spoke, "Wait!"
"What else do you have to advise?"
"About the assassin, I really wasn’t aware."
"Then there’s nothing more to say. Goodbye."
Ma Shu hastily said, "Why are you so impatient! Let me finish! You are now a subsidiary of Liao Yuan Resource Recycling Company. Although I’m in a Yangsheng city-level company, I still have special procurement quotas."
"What’s the significance?"
"I can raise the supply price of Starfire Resources by 30%."
At this point, Ren Zhong understood.
Ma Shu wouldn’t admit to hiring a killer, but he indeed felt guilty, so he chose to offer benefits to appease him, barely reaching an understanding.
"Okay."
Ren Zhong agreed to the other’s proposal to let the matter rest.
This matter was thus settled.
At half-past one in the afternoon, the airship smoothly arrived at the Starfire Resources Plaza.
Ren Zhong was greeted by a grand welcoming ceremony from Ma Xiaoling.
If Ma Dafu hadn’t appeared in time, Ren Zhong would have been skinned alive.
Even though Ma Xiaoling hadn’t yet had a chance to change equipment, she was, after all, an authentic Fifth Level Mechanical Warrior with extraordinary combat talent, having received formal systematic training. Without taking drugs, Ren Zhong was really not her match.
On the way, having already looked at Ren Zhong’s "Plan" in advance, Ma Dafu raised doubts again.
He couldn’t understand why Ren Zhong was spending money on a small town destined to perish.
Ren Zhong had to reluctantly showcase his intelligence again.
But perhaps Ren Zhong’s displayed confidence was too overwhelming, Ma Dafu sensed a subtle meaning: "Are you planning to challenge the Cold-blooded Butcher?"
Ren Zhong nodded, "Yes."
"Are you crazy?"
Ren Zhong merely smiled without speaking and didn’t explain more; he only retorted, "Old Ma, how well do you understand me?"
Old Ma was stunned.
"In short, remember this Old Ma, I won’t joke around with my own life. What you should do is not to be undecided here, but to think about how to cooperate with me. I’ve already secured a special procurement quota from your nephew Ma Shu. Starting tonight, the output of Ruined Beasts in Starfire Town will increase by 30%. I plan to pass on all the extra to the desolate humans. Also, I am planning to kill the Descending Demon Baby in four days. So, you must help me secure a license for unlimited munitions supply."
