Chapter 122 Who drove the sports car on the highway?
Objectively speaking, regarding Yu Xiao's attitude.
A group of people, led by Sheng Anhuai, had made up their minds from the very beginning.
However, initially, it was largely due to An Ming's confident assertion; after all, the words of a renowned paleontologist on Earth carried considerable weight.
But later on, it became more about apprehension.
The greater the strategic value discovered in the Shadow Dragon, the more coveted it becomes.
But the more extraordinary the Shadow Dragon's strength became, the more wary they became.
Let's make a bold assumption: if a Shadow Dragon were to enter a country's territory, what are the chances that country would notice? What are the chances that it could stop the Shadow Dragon from causing trouble or even capture it?
I thought about it.
"Have you brought everything you needed?"
Sheng Anhuai turned his head and looked at Zeng Fangong, who looked reserved.
Upon hearing this...
"certainly."
Zeng Fangong's expression became even more respectful.
"Not only is there a document officially listing Donghai City as a municipality directly under the central government."
"There's also the explanation regarding the decision to integrate the slaughterhouses within the Great Xia territory into a single large meat processing plant..."
Zeng Fangong nodded and spoke hurriedly.
He paused after saying that.
"In addition, as Mr. Yu Xiao mentioned before, we plan to purchase 27 dragon eggs."
"Daxia Bank has also prepared 13.5 billion, which can be transferred to Mr. Yu Xiao's account at any time."
Zeng Fangong added.
For the Great Xia, money is not important. Whether it's 3000 or 30 million, it's just a number to the whole country.
But what matters is the effect this money can have.
Yu Xiao sold the first dragon egg for 300, the second for 3000 million, the third for 30 million, and the fourth for 5000 million. The entire Xia Dynasty knew all about it.
Let's pay 5000 million per piece then, and we can also build a relationship with Yu Xiao along the way.
...
However, on the other side...
As an orange SCV-12 drove out of the highway toll station in Donghai City.
"A chant?" [What is that?]
Sitting in the passenger seat like a human, Bailong looked at the various operating systems ahead and tilted his head.
Hearing this, he glanced sideways at the white dragon, whose face was a mixture of innocence and curiosity.
"The driver."
Yu Xiao thought for a moment and then uttered three words.
He was a little curious as to why the white dragon insisted on following him.
Even though he was simply going to engage in a grand "dragon egg trade," the white dragon insisted that he was afraid of being alone...
Yu Xiao didn't know if the true dragon would be afraid of encountering anything dirty, but he was certain that the white dragon was definitely the nemesis of such things.
However, to Yu Xiao's surprise...
After getting into the car, Bailong didn't fly inside; instead, he sat obediently in the passenger seat, just like a human.
Some even imitated this and fastened their seatbelts...
"A 'hum'?" [Just this metal box?]
The white dragon's eyes widened, its small blue pupils filled with utter bewilderment.
Yu Xiao did not answer.
Just as I was controlling the steering wheel, the car turned a corner.
"What exactly did you say to Shadow Dragon yesterday?"
"The staff at True Dragon Consulting said that Shadow Dragon turned on the TV early this morning to watch those romance dramas?"
Yu Xiao turned his head to look at Bai Long and asked curiously.
Is this what a true dragon looks like when it falls in love?
Do dragons also dress up for females?
"Singing~"
Bai Long was very impatient.
After fastening his seatbelt tighter.
"Hmph~" [He can't even beat me, I can't be bothered to talk to him.]
Looking at the cement road ahead, a look of disdain flashed across Bai Long's face.
"..."
Yu Xiao did not speak.
However, Yu Xiao was also curious as to which employee had told Shadow Dragon to fawn over a female true dragon in this way.
You're a real dragon now, shouldn't you let your fists do the talking?
"The true dragon reveres me, and naturally, it reveres my world as its supreme power..."
"But I never intended for a real dragon to turn into this mess..."
Turning his head and placing his hands on the steering wheel, Yu Xiao complained a little.
...
As a Lamborghini SCV-12 that Yu Xiao specifically spent extra money to buy, its performance is still outstanding.
This super luxury car, which cost Yu Xiao over 48 million yuan, can accelerate from 0 to 100 km/h in under 3 seconds—that's just the beginning—and has excellent balance.
In terms of power, it's even more powerful.
The Lamborghini SCV-12, a limited-edition supercar built by Lamborghini specifically for the racetrack, is equipped with a 6.5-liter V12 naturally aspirated engine.
When it comes to power, it's practically a beast on land.
By evening, Yu Xiao had already traveled several hundred kilometers away from Donghai City.
As Yu Xiao sped up towards the location Zhong Houwang had indicated.
Inside a Ferrari Enzo parked not far away on the side of the road.
"Brother, we're only a few hundred kilometers from Donghai City. Should we do something?"
"Mingde Group is considered a star company. When the officials in Donghai City meet you, their CEO, won't they have something to say?"
The man in the floral shirt finished his last puff of cigarette and then threw it out of the car.
"What does this have to do with me?"
"If I don't want to spend money, then what about them?"
"Why should I spend money on Donghai City, such a tiny prefecture-level city?"
He Runkai, sitting in the passenger seat, snorted coldly and then leaned back in the leather seat.
"Um, well... my old man said that if you give people face, they'll give you face in return..."
The man in the floral shirt choked for a moment, then spoke hesitantly.
Before the man in the floral shirt could finish speaking...
"call out!"
A bright orange sports car sped past like a bolt of lightning.
Even when the sports car was already a hundred meters away, the cigarette in the man's hand was finally extinguished by the wind.
However, the man in the floral shirt clearly didn't pay attention to this at the moment.
But after glancing at the back of that orange sports car on the road ahead...
"What was that just now? A Lamborghini SCV?"
Turning to look at He Runkai, the man in the floral shirt was filled with astonishment.
As the eldest son of the Rong family, Rong Du naturally knew what a Lamborghini SCV was.
That's a limited-edition Lamborghini supercar with a factory price of 500 million euros, which is close to 4000 million Chinese yuan!
Most importantly, someone actually drove this supercar, which is top-notch in every aspect and could even be described as a money-printing machine, onto the highway.
"I guess so?"
"I remember you also have one in your underground garage."
"But I remember you've always been reluctant to drive this car on the highway, now..."
He Runkai nodded somewhat numbly.
For these people, it's perfectly clear what a Lamborghini SCV is.
But there's a problem.
The amount of nearly 4000 million is not a small sum for He Runkai, but it is nothing to the Rong family.
The Rong family, which rose to prominence during the Self-Strengthening Movement and donated half of its assets to Daxia on several occasions, has remained powerful to this day. No one knows exactly how much wealth they hold.
The Rong family may not be high-profile, but they have subsidiaries or members of the Rong family holding shares in almost every well-known internet giant, such as CITIC Group, Sequoia Capital, Hillhouse Capital, Tencent, and Alibaba.
For such a company, tens of millions is really not a large sum of money.
But it depends on how you use it.
Investing tens of millions is different from throwing tens of millions on the ground.
Driving a sports car on the highway is practically wearing it down; this is a fact that even wealthy people know.
