Chapter 459 Red Heart Chamber of Commerce’s Anger
Even in his death, Huang Kai kept a walkie-talkie in his hand. When Lu Yu fought his henchmen, he must have taken the opportunity to contact his team.
Lu Yu frowned. This guy must have revealed all their information, which meant those from his team might be coming to take revenge.
Lu Yu picked up the walkie-talkie and found that the connection was still ongoing, so he spoke into it.
“Hey, can anyone hear me?”
At that time, Xu Yuan and the others had finished stripping equipment and came over. Seeing that Lu Yu was holding Huang Kai’s walkie-talkie, they got anxious.
“Hey, can you hear me?” Lu Yu asked again. If no one replied, he planned to leave.
After a long pause, the walkie-talkie finally responded.
“Huang Kai is dead. You must be the one who killed him.”
The person’s voice sounded young and straightforward, but there was a hint of arrogance in his tone.
“Yes, that’s right. You must be a member of the Red Heart Chamber of Commerce.”
“I’m the leader of the Red Heart Chamber of Commerce team, Jiang Lintian!”
“How dare you kill one of ours! You’re dead! I’m going to cut all six of you into a thousand pieces, crush you into mincemeat, and feed it to my dogs!”
He suddenly exploded and roared in anger.
Han Xuefei heard the other party’s voice beside him and quickly explained.
“Jiang Lintian is the young master of an ultra-wealthy family in the autonomous zone of stars. His status is above that of millions of people. No one dared to provoke him on his turf, let alone kill his subordinates. Even if someone bumped into his beloved dog, he would drown that person to death!”
“Since we encounter him, we will have to face him head-on.”
She knew that such a good-for-nothing would never let Lu Yu go. Lu Yu nodded slightly to show that he had heard Han Xuefei’s explanation.
“It was your team member who wanted to rob me. I’m just retaliating. But I guess it’s useless for me to explain my reasoning. Since you want to take revenge, you’re welcome to come and try!”
Jiang Lintian was enraged even further. “Fine, just you wait. If I don’t kill you, my surname isn’t Jiang! My anger won’t subside until I cut you into a thousand pieces!”
“Sure, I’ll wait for you. “Show me what you’re capable of.”
After saying that, Lu Yu hung up, not giving him a chance to continue with his harsh words.
Wang Meng came over and commented angrily, “This Jiang guy, ugh. He makes me want to rush up and stab him to death. What a shameless and arrogant fellow!”
“It was they who attacked us first. We killed them in self-defense, and now his team leader is angry!”
Wang Meng’s anger rose, and he was unhappy.
Lu Yu patted his shoulder and said, “That’s their nature. There’s no way to reason with such ill-natured people. Let’s just find an opportunity to teach them a lesson.”
Lu Yu didn’t know much about these chambers of commerce in the Stellaris Autonomous Zone. He had lived a difficult life since he was young, and his childhood was poor. Growing up in such an environment, how could Lu Yu ever understand how these groups of ultra-rich people think?
However, since sparks had already been ignited between the two sides, it was only a matter of time before they clashed. Lu Yu knew he needed more information about these forces.
Lu Yu picked up Huang Kai’s sword.
“Gold-Shattering Sword. Due to his talent that allowed him to ignore defense, this weapon’s attack power is ridiculously high. He must have added all of the attributes when leveling up into his weapon’s attack.”
“You can take it.”
Lu Yu passed the word to Wang Meng. Among all of them, Wang Meng was the most suitable to wield this sword.
Lu Yu didn’t need any weapons because his dragon claws were the best weapon. Xu Yuan, too, basically didn’t need such a sword.
He was a long-range healer and focused on cultivating his mana. Therefore, if he wanted a new weapon, it would be something like a staff. Moreover, he specialized in poison and had a cobra as his battle pet. Therefore, a staff with poison attributes was the most suitable equipment for Xu Yuan.
Although the three girls had different roles, they all needed staff as their weapons. Only Yun Zirou might benefit from an extra dagger when placing her in an assassin role.
After all, Yun Zirou’s crowd control skills were absurdly strong, much stronger than Han Xuefei and Su Qing’s.
Wang Meng took the weapon and immediately showed an honest smile.
“You’re really my good brother, always thinking of me when something good happens.”
Wang Meng said so happily. He was once again determined that he hadn’t followed the wrong person!
“Among all the people here, it seems like you’re the only one who can use this weapon.”
“Yeah, I don’t really need a sword.” Xu Yuan spoke up with a smile.
Wang Meng immediately laughed. “You’re looking down on it when it’s such a good piece of equipment? You have a problem with your taste if you don’t want it.”
Xu Yuan shrugged and didn’t bother arguing with Wang Meng.
“Alright, continue searching and take everything you can.”
They walked toward Huang Kai and started to take off his equipment. At the same time, they searched his storage ring.
Lu Yu looked at Han Xuefei and asked, “Do you know much about the chambers of commerce in Stellaris?”
Han Xuefei smiled. “You’ve asked the right person. Our family has plenty of connections with the chambers of commerce over there.”
“The two major chambers of commerce there monopolized almost all the major companies, and not a single commercial company could escape from their hands.”
“Some companies have their shares bought by those two chambers of commerce, some have their pipelines controlled, and some are shell companies.”
“Those unwilling to cooperate with them will be excluded from the business alliance and eventually disappear. Some will go bankrupt, while others struggle to hold on.”
Lu Yu nodded. After listening to Han Xuefei’s brief explanation, he finally understood the strength of the chambers of commerce in Stellaris.
“In other words, the major companies or groups in Ixdale are basically all their puppets?”
“No, of course not. They’re Ixdale’s companies. They’re the lifeblood of the Freedom Federation!”
“Most of our companies are under the military’s protection. If any chamber of commerce wants to do anything to them, it’s impossible.”
Lu Yu understood what Han Xuefei was getting at. After all, there was no way that a major company of the Freedom Federation would be controlled by a chamber of commerce from another region. If that happened, it would be disastrous.
“As for the Lionheart Empire, these chambers of commerce have also infiltrated, but they’re slightly weaker there.”
Lu Yu continued to ask, “Then, what if… and I’m saying, what if… the Red Heart Chamber of Commerce makes a move on your Han family? Will your family be able to survive?”
Hearing this, Han Xuefei frowned slightly and didn’t know what to say.
“I don’t know much about our family’s business, but I’m sure that if the Red Heart Chamber of Commerce wants to impose commercial sanctions, we won’t survive for more than a week!”
