Chapter 116, the 8th Dragon! The Time Dragon, a lower-ranking form of the Candle Dragon!
Chapter 116, the 8th Dragon! The Time Dragon, a lower-ranking form of the Candle Dragon!
As for the reason, Yu Xiao felt that he might have the answer.
"Are you considering declaring Donghai City a directly administered municipality at some point?"
Looking out the car window at the receding scenery, Yu Xiao's gaze shifted.
With so many business luminaries and elites present, it was announced that Donghai City would be directly upgraded to a municipality.
Those people may not know why Donghai City suddenly rose to prominence.
But most people surely know what it means for a prefecture-level city to be promoted to a municipality directly under the central government without any warning...
Thinking about this...
"It seems Zeng Fangong and his group released this information themselves..."
Yu Xiao sighed.
Shake his head.
"What crime did you say your nephew committed in Donghai City?"
Turning to look at Shang Zhengkai beside him, Yu Xiao asked curiously.
"A few years ago, when He Jinxi came to Donghai City for sightseeing, he hit and killed someone, and then..."
Shang Zhengkai thought for a moment.
...
He Jinxi still couldn't understand it.
Earlier, she had seen her uncle, who had confidently promised to get her out.
Not only has he hired a professional legal team, but he has also said that he has smoothed things over with the Donghai City Public Security Bureau.
This put He Jinxi's mind at ease.
So what if I'm in jail again? I have my uncle!
But soon, He Jinxi's heart died completely.
Inside the Donghai City Public Security Bureau Detention Center.
"What do you mean by 'my uncle provided evidence of my crime'?"
"What do you mean my uncle's lawyer is filing a lawsuit against me again?"
Looking at the documents handed to him, He Jinxi's eyes widened, his face filled with disbelief.
But He Jinxi remained puzzled.
"It is understood that the head of the well-known Maoquan Chamber of Commerce in Linjiang Province has come to Donghai City."
"At the meeting that just concluded, the Chamber of Commerce president expressed his condolences regarding the crimes committed by the Maoquan Chamber of Commerce against Donghai City..."
On the television screen next to them, a reporter holding a microphone appeared.
...
These words were a bombshell for all sectors of Donghai City.
There are no business organizations in Daxia. The so-called Maoquan Chamber of Commerce is basically a group of people from Maoquan City, Linjiang Province, who banded together under the guise of being fellow townsmen.
It has existed for decades, and at that time it was just for mutual support. After all, it is normal in Daxia for fellow villagers to be moved to tears when they meet, and when you are away from home, you rely on fellow villagers.
Later, some regulations, systems, and rules were gradually formed.
Today, the Maoquan Chamber of Commerce covers more than 200 listed companies, ranging from hundreds of millions to billions of yuan, encompassing all aspects of Linjiang Province.
Regarding the Maoquan Chamber of Commerce's proposal to invest 300 billion yuan in the development of Donghai City...
The business people in Donghai City were quite shocked.
However, at this moment, in a quiet little restaurant in Donghai City.
"Master, do you want me to buy dragon eggs?"
Shang Zhengkai looked at Yu Xiao in front of him and blinked.
Yu Xiao nodded.
Yu Xiao's thoughts remained unchanged.
Given Yu Xiao's current financial resources, raising one more dragon wouldn't make much of a difference.
But the consumption is there, and it's a considerable number every day.
Although Yu Xiao didn't mind spending money to buy things and was happy to accept it, why should he take on everything himself when others could spend money?
Moreover, Yu Xiao felt that Shang Zhengkai was now, in a way, his slave.
As for these people who are on his own, Yu Xiao felt that with a true dragon-level henchman, there would be basically no accidents.
"Gulp!"
Shang Zhengkai swallowed hard.
He was controlled by Yu Xiao at various frequencies and truly became Yu Xiao's person.
But his mind is still intact.
"A real dragon?"
"Will he eat me?"
"What kind of person is he? Will he listen to me?"
Looking at Yu Xiao, Shang Zhengkai spoke cautiously.
"As long as he doesn't go hungry, he won't eat you, don't worry."
Yu Xiao waved his hand.
Yu Xiao then brought up the data panel.
Yu Xiao had a third reason for selling dragon eggs to Shang Zhengkai.
He wanted to give it a try.
As things stand, Yu Xiao definitely wouldn't dare sell the Candle Dragon.
Once time becomes chaotic on a large scale, anything can happen.
However, there is a lower-ranking alternative to Zhulong.
Time Dragon.
According to the results Yu Xiao obtained from the system, the Time Dragon can also manipulate time, but only within a limited timeframe and a certain area.
While it cannot compare to Zhulong, it still possesses the ability to manipulate time.
Yu Xiao felt that he could make a choice.
"real?"
"Will the dragon hurt people?"
Upon hearing Yu Xiao's words, Shang Zhengkai breathed a sigh of relief, but still spoke with unease.
Yu Xiao didn't speak, he just lowered his head.
[Does the host intend to purchase the Time Dragon's egg?]
[Purchase successful! Please treat the Time Dragon well!]
next moment.
"Thump!"
A dark golden egg, about half the height of a person, appeared on the table in front of Yu Xiao.
[The host has received three abilities from the Time Dragon: Time Domain (lv1), Time Bubble (lv1), and Time Erosion (lv1)]

"Time Realm?"
Yu Xiao was stunned when he saw the pop-up data panel.
This was the first time he had ever seen the domain ability in a dragon...
"Judging from the abilities I've acquired... my guess is pretty much right."
"The birth of a Time Dragon can also cause time reversal or time disorder."
"But it's limited to a specific area, not the vast area like the Candle Dragon..."
However, Yu Xiao quickly came to another conclusion.
Just as Yu Xiao was pondering this in his heart.
"Is this a dragon egg?"
"Master, what's hatching inside this egg? Is it really a dragon?"
Shang Zhengkai leaned over and asked curiously.
...
After saying goodbye to Shang Zhengkai, Yu Xiao planned to visit Zhenlong Consulting.
After all, there are still a few dragons taking classes there.
However, Yu Xiao had just stepped out of the restaurant when he encountered an uninvited guest.
"Mr. Yu Xiao! What are you doing here! I've been looking for you!"
Kao Shih-chi looked at Yu Xiao in front of him and spoke with a look of surprise.
Baka! It's Mr. Yu Xiao!
That's great! I was just wondering how to run into Mr. Yu Xiao, and now I have!
This must be the guidance of fate!
"What are you doing here?"
Looking at Kaoshi Jinyi in front of him, Yu Xiao was a little suspicious.
Why am I running into this thing again?
Oh, right, where's the Black Dragon?
I sold you to Japan so you could cause trouble! What are you doing!
