Chen Xiaojun's voice continued to echo through the Council Hall, still in that calm tone:
"Fourth, another specialty of this district: people! Our trade in people has already matured. It would be a real shame to cut it off and destroy it."
As soon as those words left his mouth, the atmosphere in the hall, which had just been somewhat excited by his grand plans, chilled a little.
Qin Luguang's brows knitted together, and he subconsciously rubbed his precious dry tobacco pipe, a hint of disapproval showing in his eyes.
Xia Yun's gentle face also darkened. He was clearly instinctively repulsed by this kind of "specialty" business.
Xi Men Wuye and Ma Zhibin glanced at each other, their looks complicated, carrying both consideration of reality and moral hesitation.
Yang Zhicheng remained silent, but his sharp gaze turned toward Chen Xiaojun, waiting for what came next.
Chen Zhang's expression did not change much, but his eyes grew a little deeper as he looked at his nephew.
Chen Xiaojun acted as if he had not seen everyone's little emotional reactions and continued calmly, "Elders, I know this topic is sensitive and unpleasant to hear. What the Bone Excavation Group did was enough to outrage heaven and man. Naturally, we have no disdain for such acts."
"But 'population movement' itself is an objective fact in this Underground World, and even across the entire continent. We took over the Bone Excavation Group's channels and connections, and we also received their 'inventory.'"
He paused, then stressed his words. "Rather than let these channels fall into the hands of even worse gangs and continue harming the innocent, it is better for us to control them, standardize them, make them transparent, even... make them humane."
