“We still have some of our original capital.” Ling Xiaoyi took two pieces of equipment off herself. “Because we left in a hurry this time, we did not bring many valuables. However, each of us is wearing attribute equipment that Young Master made for us. If we auction them, we should be able to get quite a lot of funds.”

What Ling Xiaoyi and the others wore were top-grade all attributes +13 equipment that Hong Dali made for them as a means to squander. If they auctioned those…

No matter what, they would not be short on cash…

At this time, a female lackey came forward and said, “Sister Xiaoyi, you can sell mine first. I don’t have much use for it, anyway.”

Everyone clamored to have their equipment sold. After all, everything was for the Young Master. They could even forfeit their lives, what was a piece of equipment?

“Okay, everyone, calm down.” Ling Xiaoyi smiled, looked at the youngest female lackey and said, “When we get back, we will sell your equipment first, Sixth Sister. You are the prettiest and rarely have a chance to fight. When Young Master comes back, he will make you another set. Most importantly, the attributes on your gear are the lowest. Half of them are +12 gems and it will not attract as much attention when we sell it, so it will be safer.”

Sixth Sister hurriedly nodded. “Great, I can finally do something for Young Master! Sell mine!”

And so the original startup capital was settled.

Shenluo City.

After Hong Weiguo and his party arrived, they checked into the hotel Jiang Qianxue had arranged for them, St. Homburg Grand Hotel.

Actually, Hong Weiguo and Lan Ruoxi were quite shocked by the Silver-blue super-planet which they were visiting for the first time. Without looking at the other cities, just Shenluo City was half as big as the Heavenly State. From Earth, this was beyond their imagination. However, this was not an ordinary trip and things like shopping and sightseeing had to wait…

Since it was a business belonging to the Galaxy Aristocrats, St. Homburg Hotel was one of the top hotels in Shenluo City. More importantly, it was big and stylish enough that no one would pay any heed if a few prodigals were to check-in.

When they arrived, Hong Weiguo and the rest reserved the entire eighth floor. It made things convenient for them.

Room 8001: Hong Weiguo and Lan Ruoxi. Room 8002: Lin Chuyin’s laboratory. From 8003 onwards: Li Nianwei and the lackeys. They had one room each. The rooms were minimalistic but not simple.

On the way back, they had already planned what they would do. So, once they were settled, each of them left to do what they needed to.

Sauron Auction Center.

Li Nianwei and Ling Xiaoyi were seated in a room. As usual, Li Nianwei had her feet on the Goblin appraiser’s table. She said gruffly, “Sell this suit of armor as soon as possible. We are in urgent need of cash, do what you need to!”

This was a highly-valued customer who often brought in big deals, the Goblin did not dare to be careless. He nodded vigorously. “Definitely, Definitely. I guarantee it’ll be sold in three days! Sauron Auction Center is always trustworthy when conducting business.”

“Good.” Three days to have their item sold was relatively fast. Li Nianwei and Ling Xiaoyi left immediately after that.

Hong Weiguo scrutinized the information on the two clothing factories and four restaurants that Ling Xiaoyi had prepared. When he finished looking, he let out a long breath. “These few businesses look promising, more so than I thought. If we plan properly, they could do well.”

Lan Ruoxi picked the information up and smiled as she looked at them. “Au Sejiang Clothing Company, purchase price 8.6 million, currently making a loss of 120,000 per month. Nidi Clothing Co., Ltd., purchase price 9.5 million and a monthly loss of 140,000. Lanwei Restaurant, purchase price of 12 million, making a loss of 250,000 per month. Xinu Lake Restaurant, purchase price of 11 million and a monthly loss of 220,000…” After reporting the basic information, Lan Ruoxi smiled even wider. “Our little prodigal is really good at squandering. Look at what he bought…”

“How can you still laugh at a time like this?” Hong Weiguo said forlornly. “Are you his real mother? How can you be so heartless?”

“Rubbish, of course I’m his real mother. Need you to ask?” Lan Ruoxi did not worry overmuch. Instead, she said softly, “Dear, do you remember, our health used to be just average. But one day, all our pains and aches disappeared! That time, we thought it could be due to our little prodigal’s squandering, right?”

“Correct, what about it?” Hong Weiguo frowned curiously and suddenly slapped his thigh. “Now that you mention it, I get it! The Emperor Beetle’s beam affects a person’s health. If the person is not up to scratch, his body would not be able to take it, right? So, if someone squanders here, Dali’s health should increase, and he will survive, right?”

“Hehe, no wonder you are my husband!” Lan Ruoxi gave Hong Weiguo a big kiss. “So clever!”

“No wonder you are not worried.” Hong Weiguo laughed. “In that case, we have to try harder as his parents. Which of these six businesses do you want? Choose.”

“Clothing, I guess.” Lan Ruoxi chose the one that had a lower quantity. “I should have a pretty good eye when it comes to fashion.”

“Deal.” Hong Weiguo agreed immediately. “I will take care of the four restaurants. We’ll see who earns more!”

“No problem, hehe!”

When everyone had settled their own tasks, the guard which Jiang Qianxue had arranged to meet them, Adams, had also arrived.

He had not traveled with Hong Weiguo and the others so as not to attract undue attention and avoid detection. This matter was not difficult to deal with, but neither was it simple.

Most importantly, they must not attract the attention of the Galaxy Aristocrats. This was of utmost importance. Everything else would not be a problem.

“Mr. Hong.” Adams sat on the sofa in room 8001. He looked at Hong Weiguo and smiled. “Everyone’s identity has been settled. The few people who have appeared with Young Master Dali previously all have new identities. Although there has been no change in the name and appearance, there are many people on our Silver-blue super-planet, so it’s not rare to see similar looking people who have the same names. All they have to do is disguise themselves a little. What has really changed is their identity.”

On the Silver-blue super-planet, there was an uncountable number of people. Just in Shenluo City alone, there were already as many people as there were in the entire Heavenly State.

As long as the identities of Li Nianwei and the others could not be linked to the Honorary Aristocrat, Hong Dali, no one would care about these people who came from God knows where. As long as their identities were reasonable, there would be no problem.

This time, Adams’ main task was to help assign new identities to everyone. “Mr. Hong, your current identity is a business consultant who has come from the Meno Planet in the Milky Way. You are here to help Young Master Hong Dali, who has left to fight against the Zergs, to take care of his business. Miss Li Nianwei and the others are from a wealthy family on Meno. You have come here to grow your business.”

All the Honorary Aristocrats had to fight the Zergs. After all, to the humans in the universe, the Zergs were their biggest enemies. The higher their position and status, the more they needed to fight against the Zergs to gain military achievement. This way, they would be able to gain others’ respect and attain higher positions.

People who thrived on internal conflict and ran away once they encountered the Zergs would never be able to gain the people’s respect…

While they were out fighting the Zergs, someone had to oversee their business on the Silver-blue super-planet. Otherwise, with the ever-changing market, if they did not return to helm their business for a month or a few months, would all their businesses here not go bankrupt?

Therefore, the identities that Adams created for them were extremely reasonable. It was well constructed and would definitely not raise anyone’s suspicions—at least, it would definitely not attract the Galaxy Aristocrats’ attention.

It should be understood that the number of Galaxy Aristocrats was low, to begin with. Every main city only had two families. So, with this new identity, unless they did something extraordinary, there would be no major problems.

“Well, thank you so much, Mr. Adams.” Hong Weiguo quickly expressed his gratitude. “I’m afraid that we will have to trouble Mr. Adams a lot in the future. Please be patient with us.”

“Hehe, Mr. Hong is too polite.” Adams smiled. “Since Young Master Dali is a friend of my Young Mistress, then these are all things that I, as her subordinate, should do. Mr. Hong need not stand on ceremony.” Adams continued, “Oh right, on the way over, Miss Qianxue specifically instructed that I arrange a better identity for Miss Nianwei to participate in Sing! Milky Way. This was specifically requested by Young Master Dali, and I have already done as instructed.”

As he spoke, he took out a card. “This is the identity card of the 98th singer in Sing! Milky Way from Shenluo City. Her ranking is at the bottom and she will not need to compete again here. I have gotten her entry card by using some slightly underhanded means. I have already changed the name and you can enter the contest directly.” Although it was not stated, it was obvious that this person had gotten quite a lot of money in exchange.

“Okay.” Hong Weiguo was naturally able to understand what was being left unsaid and nodded immediately. “Thank you for your trouble, Mr. Adams. Our Nianwei is quite a good singer, and I believe she will do well.”

“In that case, I wish Miss Nianwei success in advance.”

Elsewhere, Ling Xiaoyi, Li Nianwei, and others gathered and began exchanging information.

Ling Xiaoyi: “Currently, we are in the 88th district of Shenluo City. It is very far from the two Milky Way Lord’s Offices, so it’s a very suitable location for us to squander discreetly.”

“Yes.” Li Nianwei focused mainly on the upcoming Sing! Milky Way competition. “Mr. Adams has already gotten me an identity card for the competition. 98th place is considered a very low ranking. But that’s fine, it will be suitable for me to bring my abilities into full play.”
