Chapter 556: Chapter 344: Different Classes and Lives_2
The driver opened the car door for him, and Fu Liaoyi seemed pleasantly surprised by the honor.
He was only wearing an ordinary T-shirt and old travel shoes, looking like a migrant worker.
"Little Fu, don’t find it strange, we’ve all dealt with the mysterious. Just this point alone already sets us apart from ordinary people."
Hong Botao lay on the back seat and explained with a smile.
He knew that these young people often had strong pride.
To successfully complete the task, one must give some face to the other party.
Put simply, it’s about coddling and praising.
Praise them to the skies!
"Even if you have nothing, as soon as you come into contact with the mysterious, that alone is an immeasurable intangible asset. Countless people will try to woo you, please you, invest in you."
"Look at me, in my youth, I got a piece of beautiful jade once worn by the nobility of Great Xia Country. With that jade, fortune favored me, and I made rapid progress. Even if my current net worth isn’t a hundred billion, it’s still fifty billion."
"But now I am seriously ill and don’t have many days left. To save my life, I could only go to that mysterious shop and sell the jade."
"Do you know how much that piece of jade, which brought me so much luck, was traded for? Only six months... six months of life!"
Thinking about this, Hong Botao was deeply pained, his tears flowing freely.
Of course, discussing his shortcomings was meant to bridge the gap between them.
Everyone has a tendency to envy others, and showing weakness appropriately can help those who are less fortunate maintain their confidence. This conversation not only eliminated the other person’s wariness but also opened the chance for an equal exchange.
Upon hearing that the old man only had six months to live, Fu Liaoyi’s anxiousness indeed vanished.
He sat there dumbfounded, his mind filled with a multitude of thoughts.
My own life span is actually so valuable!!
So that’s how it is. This old man used a piece of jade that could bring fortune to trade for the life I exchanged with him. No wonder he calls me his Benefactor.
But why only six months? I traded away a whole thirteen months.
The shop owner’s price is too steep...
"You realize how much you’re worth now, don’t you?" Seeing the expression on the other’s face, Hong Botao couldn’t help but smile.
Clearly, Fu Liaoyi understood what was being implied, and the rigid expression on his face gradually relaxed.
Before long, they arrived at a five-star hotel and walked into a lavishly decorated private room, ordering a pile of exotic delicacies.
There was only the three of them in the room, not even a waiter.
Hong Botao started talking about so-called "mysterious phenomena," though he didn’t know much himself. Fortunately, being in large circles, he was able to hear interesting anecdotes from other wealthy individuals.
"You know about the great Moon development... The secrets there are massive, there’s a dragon on the Moon!"
"A dragon?!"
"Yeah, the kind from the Great Xia myths, the divine dragons with the power to control the weather. After it flew away, it left behind some mysterious minerals on the Moon. These items are collectively called Strange Objects!"
Hong Botao said enthusiastically, wanting to grab a cigarette, but remembering his illness, he hesitantly put his hand down: "You know about the Parallel Worlds news, right? Actually, humans have found Parallel Worlds long ago, but to maintain social stability, the news has not been disclosed to the public."
"Parallel Worlds might have demons and ghosts, tough place to mix in!"
"Then there’s meditation, Zen Meditation methods, these things... well, they could also be from Parallel Worlds... Of course, it’s hard for us to know the specifics, the controlled information is very strict. Even if some people post the truth online, not many would believe them. After all, with so many novels and animations these days, the real information is already buried."
"Come, come, this is Australian green-lip abalone, have a taste, Little Fu."
After all, Hong Botao was an old hand at this, effortlessly bringing up topics of interest to the younger generation.
He also kept pouring drinks and offering dishes, maintaining an approachable demeanor, deftly managing Fu Liaoyi’s attitude.
But what Hong Botao was really getting at: to those who have encountered the mysterious, success is but moments away!
It could even be said that they live in a completely different world from ordinary people.
The smallest perks slipping through their fingers are what ordinary people can’t achieve even in a lifetime!
Of course, while boasting, Hong Botao couldn’t help feeling emotional that if it weren’t for touching the mysterious, he might have been long dead.
The warmth in his heart spread a continuous Vitality, pulling him back from death’s doorstep.
"Is human technology reliable now? Not at all!"
With this chat, not only did Fu Liaoyi sit there in a daze, but even Hong Botao’s son, Hong Jincong, was also wide-eyed and speechless. What was all this? Was his old man talking nonsense, or was the world truly like this?
The second-generation rich kid was confused.
Do these things really exist in the world?
Why had he never heard of any of it?
"Don’t ever doubt it. Although South Gao Country is a small nation, it has a large population and even has a specialized Superpower organization called Haiyin Temple."
"I’m not sure how many staff work for Haiyin Temple, but their influence is vast, interconnected with many financial groups, and the newly installed president is one of their people."
