When Chen Peiyue was troubled about how to deal with the doll, a mole of Lu Niu, who was in the same line of work, happened to step forward and ask if the doll was for sale. Chen Peiyue then took the opportunity to resell the doll.
However, Lu Niu only found out about this later. When he asked his mole, the doll had already been resold. Therefore, the clue left by Lu Niu on the recording pen was information about his mole.
In fact, for Li Chonglou, it didn't matter whether he obtained this core material or not, as he already knew that the material originated from the Sun Corporation.
It was as if some people wanted to get the finished product, but Li Chonglou had already obtained the source of the goods. This core material would at most let him know the appearance of the finished product.
However, there was another use for it.
After everyone finished eating, Li Chonglou called Chen Pao aside first.
"For the next few days, you might have to follow me."
Li Chonglou's words startled Chen Pao. The latter immediately took a cautious step back and said seriously, "Let me tell you first, I won't follow anyone. I have my own plans."
Li Chonglou smiled and said, "Don't be nervous. I don't intend to hire you. It's just that this information concerns the whereabouts of the material. I only promised to share the information with you, but I didn't say I would hand over the material to you."
Chen Pao then realized, "You mean go look for it together?"
Li Chonglou nodded, but Chen Pao frowned tightly.
"Then what if we really find it? You know, I want the material too!"
Li Chonglou stroked his chin thoughtfully, "That seems to be a problem."
"Exactly! Why don't you tell me the information now? Whoever finds it first gets it. That way, it's better to rely on strength, isn't it? It also saves us from friction."
Chen Pao said earnestly. If nothing else, Li Chonglou's current influence alone made him feel wary. Although Eagle Eye's reputation was not as great as Meat Mountain's, he was not an unknown figure in Shangjing.
Especially since he had personally witnessed Eagle Eye's strength, if this guy kept shooting from the shadows, he alone would be equivalent to four top experts!
Not to mention Meat Mountain, that big shot. If it wasn't necessary, Chen Pao didn't want to have any conflict with Li Chonglou!
However, to his disappointment, Li Chonglou still shook his head.
"Brother Li, is there any other solution?"
"Well, it's impossible to tell you the information in advance. Who knows if you'll sell it off? Then I won't just be competing with you, I might have to face experts from all over Shangjing."
Damn it, how did he know what I was thinking?
Chen Pao's expression suddenly froze, and then he reacted with a forced smile, "How could that be? How could I be that kind of person? I can't do such a thing, I can't."
Li Chonglou just smiled, then continued, "So we'll go look for it together. If we really find it, at worst, I'll let you have the material."
"Let me have it?"
These three words did not make Chen Pao happy; instead, they raised his vigilance. There was no free lunch in the world. If there was, then that lunch was you yourself!
Li Chonglou nodded and explained, "I'll give it to you, but not for free. You've seen my company, I just started it. I need capital in all aspects now. If you really want it, I can sell the material to you."
Chen Pao breathed a sigh of relief when he heard this. It was for money, a reason he could accept, and money didn't really mean much to him.
"Then no problem!"
Chen Pao readily agreed without thinking too much.
"Alright, now it's time to deal with the matter of our Fly Gang leader."
After Li Chonglou finished speaking, he walked back to the dining room. Just as Chen Pao took a step, he suddenly froze.
"Wait, that's not right!"
The way he said it was as if the material was already his. Haven't they found it yet?
Damn it, I've been tricked!
Chen Pao finally realized that Li Chonglou's words seemed reasonable and resolved the conflict between them, but there was actually a logical bug.
That was, the material was already in Li Chonglou's hands! Otherwise, why would he talk about selling it to the other party?
Although it was possible to withdraw from the competition by offering money, the order of importance had completely changed. Li Chonglou's words focused on him and secondarily on Chen Pao. In this relationship, when it came to bidding, he would be at a disadvantage.
"Damn it! I capsized!"
Chen Pao suddenly felt like crying but also laughing. At this moment, he remembered an old saying: "Chasing geese for years, finally caught by a goose!"
"This guy is not simple."
After Li Chonglou returned to the dining room, Liu Fei, who was sitting there silently, also seemed to know his fate. Without Li Chonglou having to say anything, he proactively asked, "Say it here?"
At this time, Meat Mountain and the others were still sitting aside. Li Chonglou thought for a moment and asked everyone to wait outside, only letting Chen Pao in.
Everyone knew at this time that Liu Fei was related to the news of the new weapon, and they had no objections. Zhou Tong also took the opportunity to lead everyone on a tour of the company and the factory.
No one knew what Liu Fei and Li Chonglou talked about. When the Eagle Eye一行 returned, they only knew that Liu Fei had disappeared, and Li Chonglou did not say where he had gone.
"Boss, am I staying here from now on?"
Eagle Eye was also very clear-headed and had guessed Li Chonglou's intentions. Meat Mountain and Cullinan also looked at Li Chonglou.
"Not necessarily."
Li Chonglou first shook his head, and then said to Eagle Eye, "You come with me first."
After taking Eagle Eye to his office, Li Chonglou directly asked, "Do you have any other things to do now?"
"I still need to go back and report to my former employer."
"I understand that. I mean in the future."
Li Chonglou's expression immediately became serious. The reason Eagle Eye followed him was initially due to his martial power threat. Later, it might have been purely out of boredom or other unrelated reasons.
Overall, their relationship was not strong, so Li Chonglou had to show enough sincerity.
However, when he was talking about this with Eagle Eye, the latter very straightforwardly said, "If you really want me to follow you, it's okay, but there are two conditions."
"Oh, tell me about it."
Eagle Eye also straightened his expression, "First, money. If I work for you, the money I earn absolutely cannot be less than what I earn from my former employer."
Li Chonglou directly replied, "That's no problem."
"Second, if my enemies come looking for me, you have to help me."
Li Chonglou frowned slightly, "Can you tell me about it?"
Eagle Eye resolutely shook his head. Li Chonglou fell silent.
Eagle Eye did not urge him, just looked at him quietly.
