DOOMSDAY ECSTASY CAVE (314)
314. BLIND CAST
"What happened?" Chen Yi looked inconceivably at Gu Dong, who was originally personable and gentle, but had now turned into a taciturn and unsmiling person. Her first reaction was that Gu Dong had encountered something terrible.
Mentioning those things, the smile on Gu Dong's face became slightly strained, "Nothing."
Chu Youning looked at Chen Yi, maybe Chen Yi was a good person, but .... She was too self-centred. Who in this world liked to open up their wounds to show them to others? Especially in front of a large crowd.
Chen Yi may think that she was very close to Gu Dong, so he can tell her anything, but... even the closest parents, wives and children have unspeakable wounds, let alone she was just an outsider.
Chen Yi pursed her lips slightly, and finally followed Lu Yiming in without saying anything more.
Chu Youning, however, turned around and walked out, and Chu Youxian followed behind her closely. Shen Haonan was slightly taken aback, "What? You're not going in?"
Chu Youning didn't even turn her head back, "Being disturbed by them, we can't talk about the business, so why should we go in and waste that time?"
Chu Youning didn't notice that when she left, Gao Yang, Lei Yi and the others all looked her way, but even if she found out, she probably wouldn't care.
As Chu Youning expected, the meeting purpose did not work out and nothing was negotiated. Lu Yiming tried to find out the purpose of those people coming to Huaxia many times, but... they always talked about something else.
Not to mention Lu Yiming, even Jiang Qingyu's heart sank. Based on his understanding of Chen Yi, she would never do anything that would harm Huaxia, but... the group of people in front of them had not come for sightseeing no matter what.
It may be because they had been paying attention to them all the time, Chen Yi and her party did not take any action at all, and the matter of the sea beasts could not be dragged on forever, so the meeting started again(on a different day).
This time Jiang Qingyu was smart, he directly asked everyone to say how much resources they could provide, and finally distribute power and benefits based on those resources. Jiang Qingyu intended to take blind casts. Everyone writes their own amount in the envelope, and then sorts them out afterwards. There was only one chance, and it would not be changed after the casting was over.
This trick was a bit wicked, and without even thinking about it, Chu Youning knew that it was Lu Yiming's wicked idea. Because it was a blind cast, everyone did not know how much resources other people will put it. If they put in less, they will be squeezed out. If they put in too much, it will be too much of a loss.
But... there was only one chance, so it doesn't matter how they choose. As long as they didn't want to be marginalized, they can only invest as much as possible, and then it would be up to fate whether they can get in or not.
Chu Youning's eyes swept over everyone one by one. She held the information network in her hand and there was nothing she didn't know. After her precise analysis, she had the most idea of how much each family would be able to offer.
In fact, Chu Youning was the least afraid when it comes to matters regarding supplies. The supplies of the entire second-tier central city were in her hands. She dares to say that no force can beat her in terms of supplies, but she was not a fool. Was it not good to keep those supplies to support her own base? Why should she take it out to give advantage to others for cheap?
Well... Chu Youning was not the great, benevolent and righteous Jiang Qingyu, she can't be selfless. Therefore, this quantity of material to invest, still have to be grasped well.
In the end, she wrote a number and handed it in. It was the same sentence as before, not the most, but enough to be able to enter the first-tier forces.
Just when the meeting came to an end, there was a knock on the door, and the door was pushed open. Chu Youning's eyes sharpened suddenly. Chen Yi came. There was nothing unexpected about her arrival, but... she was followed by Wu Yuanyuan!
Chen Yi also came in at a very coincident time, just after all the blind casts were collected. To say that it was really a coincidence, Chu Youning would rather not believe it, so... Chen Yi, this woman, was indeed to not be underestimated.
Sensing Chu Youning's gaze, Wu Yuanyuan turned her head to look, then sneered in demonstration. Chu Youning narrowed her eyes slightly, it seems... this was really coming for her.
