Chapter 148: The Financial Whizz
Translator: Kingbao Editor: DarkGem
Yao Si had originally planned to tour the Ore Planet since it was after all the first time she had visited such a place, and besides, it was hers. She wasn’t satisfied with a wasted trip. However, she realized that she wouldn’t be able to remain for long.
Because... she was about to be buried in the Galactic currency. Ever since the news about the pregnancy had erupted and operations were terminated temporarily, the employees were left idle. Their attitude toward her were of two extremes: one half would bolt at the sight of her while the other would use all means to get close to her. Te latter would always approached her in pairs.
Regardless of how much Yao Si explained, everyone still carried on with the misconception, seeing her as a celestial that everyone wanted to get hold of.
With groups of couples chasing after her, even using the toilet was a challenge. Yao Si was at her wits end as she hid at home. But that couldn’t stop the passionate requests for her blessings. It started escalating from a casual touch to tossing galactic currency in her direction. Whats was worst was the thick stacks they tossed. In less than three days, her yard was flooded with golden shimmery galactic money, to the point that even the grass could no longer be seen.
o(╯□╰)o
Please! She wasn’t a wishing well nor a fertility goddess!
Yao Si was rendered helpless. Once the galactic police settled the issue, she immediately took off on Lu Chen’s aircraft. The moment they left the Ore Planet, she sighed, a weight finally having been lifted from her shoulders.
She was finally out of there! Any longer and they would have started to offer her joss sticks!
“Boss, the Alliance has taken care of the rebellion,” Lu Chen said while opening a screen professionally. “The beasts are willing to compensate the damages incurred on the Ore Planet. All the necessary works will be completed within the next month.”
“Oh.” Yao Si had no clue what he was saying. “Lu Chen, why don’t you just do whatever you deem is best. Besides, haven’t you always been in charge of the planet’s operations? You can just continue what you have been doing.”
“Yes, boss!” Lu Chen nodded. He then pointed to the screen once more. “One more thing, even though the beasts have agreed to compensate us for the loss, the damage caused to our reputation is posing a much greater problem.”
“What do you mean?” Yao Si stilled.
“Due to the incident, we weren’t able to fulfil three shipments punctually and these three clients happen to be our most important clients.” His expression turned grave. “The late shipment cost them huge losses, prompting them to terminate their cooperation with us. This will reduce our profits by up to 80%!”
“That much! Er... Are you trying to tell me that I’m about to go bankrupt?” Don’t do this... It hasn’t been that long since I discovered my newfound fortune! How can it disappear in a few months?!
“It isn’t to that extent!” Lu Chen shook his head. “I held several meetings with the various departments and reported back to the headquarters. With them, we decided to have an emergency change of plans which would probably cover some losses!”
“What’s the plan?” Yao Si asked.
“We bought the Galactic web headlines for the next three months.” Lu Chen’s eyes brightened, and he reached out to tap the screen. The next moment, a blinding headliner jumped out instantly.
[Can’t conceive? Same sex marriages? Fertility issues? Shocking: In the Ore Planet on Galactic T, District 95, a mythical work of fate has occurred. A 35-year-old male was able to conceive twins asexually! Professionals have spoken, and this could be due to the special effects of the ores on the Ore Planet. If you wish for a miracle of life, please contact: ***]
“...” Yao Si.
“...” Mu Xuan.
Flips table!
(╯‵□′)╯︵┻━┻
What plan was that! Wasn’t it a fertility advertisement? Weren’t the ores harvested here for mental strength? When did they become a treatment for fertility problems? Isn’t it just a marketing scam?
“Will this advertisement really work!” You got to be kidding me!
“Within five days of the release... order requests for the next five years have been completely filled out.” There was barely no excess space on the screen to tap.
“...”
Tell me! How many gays are there in the Galaxy? Do you dare to provide the real number?!
“In the future, we intend to open up the Ore Planet for leisure, and the tourists will be charged according to the duration of their stay. Reservations will be made through the Galactic web! There would also be membership point exchange services,” Lu Chen added enthusiastically as he pulled out a stack of proposals. “According to the current calculations, in less than half a year, the Ore Planet will definitely become the hottest new addition to the planet tour.”
“...”F*ck, you did the budgeting already?!
“Don’t worry boss, I instructed the various departments to stop spreading the truth behind Feng Xiao’s pregnancy. You won’t be exposed!” Lu Chen slammed his chest confidently. “But... boss, if you’re free, could you help me write a few blessings? I want to sell them as limited edition amulets. You don’t have to write much since it isn’t for mass production. Just a few like ‘blessing you with many children’ or something similar along the those lines!”
“Lu Chen...”
“Mmh?”
“I finally understand how the Lu Family earned their fortune!”
Their money making ability was... over the charts!
“Ah?” Lu Chen glanced at her nonchalantly as he continued to introduce the other products.
Suddenly, an alarm went off!
[Warning! Foreign aircraft located, unable to detect registration data.]
[Warning! Foreign aircraft located, unable to detect registration data.]
What’s this situation?!
Yao Si froze. A gigantic aircraft suddenly appeared before them. It was about five times the size of their aircraft and was unlike anything they had seen before.
It was shaped like a gigantic lotus and seemed to be opening up petal by petal in their direction while its core glowed brightly.
What’s that?
(⊙_⊙)
“Flower of the Heavenly Tree?” the silent Mu Xuan suddenly exclaimed.
Flower?
Yao Si stilled. That big thing was really a flower?! Not an aircraft?
The alarm intensified as large petals suddenly multiplied across the screen. They seemed almost alive, floating out of the screen and filling the entire aircraft.
“Mu Xuan,this... this...” Yao Si’s heart clenched, and she grabbed onto Mu Xuan’s arm instinctively.
She had a bad feeling about it!
