Chapter 253: Cooperation

Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio

“Uncle Shan, if you have something to say, just say it.”

The three of them arrived at a luxurious room in the center of the worship hall. Han Xing went straight to the point and was too lazy to beat around the bush with Shan Qingyuan.

Shan Ling was also a little puzzled at this moment. She did not know her father’s plan.

“Hahaha, a straightforward person doesn’t beat around the bush. Young Master Han is indeed a straightforward person.”

After Shan Qingyuan sat down, he gestured for the waiter beside him to pour tea for the man.

“I’m here to discuss a collaboration with you, Young Master Han.”

Han Xing gently touched the teacup in his hand and said faintly, “Master Shan, you must be joking. How can a small family like me cooperate with a big family like the Shan family?”

He wasn’t an id*ot. The current Han family had nothing that the Shan family could take fancy to. Something abnormal must have happened.

Shan Qingyuan’s expression did not change. He thought to himself that Han Xing was not easy to fool.

“I’ve heard that the Han family is currently hosting the first offline competition in the Second World. Among them, there’s only one person I’m most interested in, and that’s Star Rebel.”

Han Xing raised his eyebrows. He didn’t expect these people to be looking for him. He thought about it carefully and immediately understood. He heard the news from the bodyguards in the toilet that these big families were preparing to unite.

The alliance was already planned, but he didn’t expect that they would also target him at this moment. Could it be that there was something strange about this?

At the thought of this, Han Xing felt awkward. He said, “This is not an easy task. I’m not familiar with this person either. The reason he agreed to my invitation is most likely because I gave him a corresponding reward. The price was not low.”

Hearing this, Shan Qingyuan was deep in thought. He knew it. How could a small fry like Han Xing come into contact with someone like Star Rebel?

“What about that batch of equipment?”

Han Xing confessed, “I bought it from him.”

Han Xing’s words were enough. Shan Qingyuan already had a plan in mind. He wasn’t afraid that Star Rebel liked money. What he was most afraid of was that this person was flawless. As long as he liked money, it would be easy. The Shan family didn’t lack money.

“As long as I can see Star Rebel in person, all of this is nothing to me.”

Shan Qingyuan’s expression became a little playful. If he could pull Star Rebel into his camp, that would be the best thing that could happen.

It would depend on whether the other party had the idea of doing this. As long as he did, he would have one more chess piece to use.

“Alright, I’ll contact him. If there’s any news, I’ll inform you in time, Master Shan. However, I have a request.”

Shan Qingyuan raised his hand, gesturing to Han Xing to speak his mind. If Han Xing dared to ask for too much, don’t blame him for being rude.

“I hope that you can introduce me to the Wang family of the Northern Province.”

Hearing Han Xing’s request, Shan Qingyuan’s expression became a little more subtle. He said, “You can’t meet the Wang family of the Northern Province as you wish, but I will definitely introduce you if 1 can. As for whether you can meet the core members, I can’t guarantee it.”

Han Xing nodded and said, “That’s only natural. We’ve borrowed too much money for this offline competition and we’re lacking a sponsor. Otherwise, I wouldn’t have thought of trying to get in touch with the Wang family.”

These words completely dispelled the concerns in Shan Qingyuan’s heart. As long as it did not involve his interests, he did not want to care at all.

Shan Ling was confused as she listened. She asked in confusion, “Dad, what are you guys talking about? Why do you suddenly want to pay attention to the situation in the Second World? I thought you never cared about the game before?”

Shan Qingyuan didn’t want to tell Shan Ling. He just laughed and said perfunctorily, “The Second World is making too much money. As a businessman, our Shan family naturally has to participate. Otherwise, we will be eliminated by the times.”

Shan Ling only took a glance at Shan Qingyuan’s expression and knew that he was lying. Every time he lied and didn’t want to answer her question, he would use this set of reasoning to brush her off.

However, she didn’t want to pursue the matter. She looked at Han Xing worriedly, afraid that he would be tricked by her father.

They chatted for a while more and answered each other evasively before leaving. Shan Qingyuan watched the two of them leave and sneered inwardly. This Han Xing had set his sights on his daughter. How dare he.

However, Shan Ling was still useful, so he wouldn’t force her to marry for the time being.

The Shan family was the representative of all the allied families. He had proposed to form an alliance with Star Rebel. The Star Rebel’s combat and martial strength were off the charts, and there was also a behemoth like the Mad Dragon Guild.

At that time, they would incur the wrath of the public, causing the players of the Second World to criticize them. Then, they could push the blame onto the Mad Dragon Guild and become perfectly invisible.

However, Han Xing was quite greedy. He actually wanted to form an alliance with the Wang family. He didn’t even look at his role in all this, daring to make such a request.

Shan Qingyuan naturally could not contact the main Wang family. He casually found a branch family descendant and told him about this matter. After all, he had indeed found the Wang family for Han Xing, so it could not be considered as going against the deal between the two of them.

On the other side, Shan Ling was showing Han Xing around the worship site. She asked in a low voice, “Why would you agree to my father’s request? He’s not that easy to deal with.”

“I’m also a businessman. It’s a businessman’s instinct to pursue profits. I believe that there’s nothing wrong with this.”

At this moment, the event had come to an end. All the staff members were slowly taking out the symbols of each family. There were even a lot of roasted whole lambs and other special food prepared at the scene.

After many aristocratic family descendants entered, they greeted Shan Ling one after another. Today, the two families had a conflict, and they could be considered to have seen Shan Ling’s value. It was always a good thing to have more connections.

Shan Ling casually brushed them off and brought Han Xing to a quiet place.

“It’s best to be careful. If there’s any problem, you can tell me.”

Han Xing couldn’t help but laugh. “Are you going to be a spy for me?”

A smile appeared on Shan Ling’s face. She replied, “What nonsense are you talking about? 1 mean, of course, I’ll tell you if they are planning to do anything to you.”

“Moreover, my brother Shan Wei is vengeful. If you offend him, he will definitely think of ways to take revenge on you. My father never cares about the fights between brothers and sisters. The more we fight, the more he praises us.”

“It doesn’t matter. We’ll take things one step at a time. After all, the Han family really needs to expand and develop now.”

Shan Ling knew that her father would never allow Han Xing to meet anyone from the Wang Family of the Northern Province. Even if he did meet them, they would most likely not be important people. With their status, they would definitely not lower their standards to work with him..
