Sural heard what Xiang Xue said, and stood up to leave. When he saw that the other party didn't respond, he hesitated and sat down again.

"Forget it, don't think about it anymore, just take a gamble. I really have no choice... Can you help me solve the problem first?"

"Haha," Xiang Xue couldn't help laughing when he saw this, "You are really a businessman!"

She really didn't mean to laugh at him, she had seen this way too many times.

It is said that this is the way small traders do business, but I didn't expect that Sail Consortium's major shareholder would actually do this.

Sural is a little hot-tempered, but the key is that he knows what the other person is laughing at, "As a vulnerable group, it's not too much to use some means, right?"

"Weak group?" Xiang Xue laughed even harder, "Haha, if you are all a weak group, how many are still strong?"

"At least it's the weaker party," Sural didn't bother to pick out the words, "Can you help me solve the problem first?"

Businessmen usually don't let go of the rabbit before they see it, and his question still had a strong sense of probing.

"Solve the problem first?" Xiang Xue stopped laughing and blinked, "Give us a reason."

Is it really possible? Sural is still a little doubtful, but the reason is easy to find.

"The government has been pressing me very urgently recently, and my magic weapon is not at hand, and... I also want to see your strength."

"You dare to say anything," Xiang Xue was also a little surprised by the other party's straightforwardness - don't you like to play tricks?

Sural raised his hand and pointed at Young Master, "I think he can say anything, but you don't care, so just learn from it..."

"I apologize if I was wrong."

"You are right," Xiang Xue gave a thumbs up, "You are so good at studying. To be honest, I am very optimistic about you."

"You will become a successful businessman."

"Thank you for the compliment," Sural smiled bitterly, "I would rather become a successful cultivator, but I just can't help myself."

"I can understand," Xiang Xue Diandian nodded. Her ability to empathize is still very strong.

"But let's be honest, you'd better get the magic weapon over quickly."

Sural suddenly felt a little uninterested, "So, you still can't make the first move? I thought you would be different."

"Stop your tricks, it's very childish," Xiang Xue rolled his eyes, "Moreover... did I say we can't strike first?"

Sural suddenly felt relaxed, "I'm being shallow. To be honest, it's a pleasure to deal with you."

"Do you need me to provide relevant departments and lists?"

"No need," Xiang Xue shook his head, "Whoever asks you for money again, tell him... you are covered by Digital Phantom."

"We authorize you to use the name Digital Phantom, is that enough?"

It seems not enough... Sural feels that this answer is a bit unreliable, "But many times, pressure comes from all directions."

Shui Xisheng couldn't help it when he heard this, "Although there is a lot of pressure, you can't find the culprit? What nonsense, don't let me underestimate you!"

His words are based on You Gen. At the beginning, Shui Corporation was also surrounded by enemies on all sides, but he was sure that the mastermind behind the scenes was Dyson Consortium.

But Sural was too lazy to pay attention to him, "Pressure from the government can really come from all directions, and the source cannot be found."

"In other words, every place is a source."

"Why bother to find out the source?" Xiang Xue replied lightly, "You just need to identify who asked you for money."

"I'm stupid," Sural was really speechless. Only then did he truly realize how powerful Digital Phantom was.

You know, many of those who urge for money are just following orders, and there are also some big backgrounds behind these people.

"How do you feel that you are going to be the enemy of the entire empire?"

"We have no intention of becoming enemies of the empire," Xiang Xue smiled faintly, and then straightened his face.

"But if you raise the banner of Digital Phantom and some people ignore it... then it's disrespectful to us!"

Sural was silent after hearing this. After about ten seconds, Diandian nodded and said, "I understand!"

Xiang Xue waved his hand after hearing this, "Then go ahead and get the magic weapon quickly... how long will it take?"

"Within a month," Sural was clever again. In fact, half a month is enough.

From Tanwang Star to Beam Star, plus the round trip from Beam Star to Pan Rock Star, some of the times can overlap.

It will definitely not take a month anyway, but it's not a bad thing to buy a little more time.

In fact, what he was more curious about was, "If it works just by putting up a banner, what if someone pretends to be someone else?"

In fact, it is not a matter of what-if, but if it is useful, someone will definitely put up a false flag.

This is the nature of intelligent races. As long as there are benefits, what does fraud mean? Plagiarism is not a problem.

This is the case even in Blue Star. How did America start up in the first place? Didn't the patent of Britain be declared invalid? Japan is known as the spirit of craftsmanship, but the thin-skinned cars with little stuffing were once synonymous with fake and shoddy products.

And when they started, they also paid tribute to too many excellent foreign products and infringed on countless patents.

Anyway, once you are good, don't expect others to be gentlemen - at least you have to get some traffic.

"Impersonation?" Xiang Xue smiled upon hearing this, "Then let's give it a try. I hope they can achieve some results."

Those who can't produce results can't make money, and she has no interest in targeting those who use their own banner indiscriminately.

When Sural left, I was still thinking, how should I say this - just say that Digital Phantom is covering me? After returning to Beam Star, within two days, Sail Consortium's financial officer notified him that it was time to make another payment.

This matter is really annoying. There is no need for official pressure at all, and the people from the consortium will tell him to pay.

Sural said simply: I have no money, so I won't pay it!

The financial officer was quite surprised, but he was just a businessman and did not dare to offend shareholders, so he reported it to the financial director.

When the financial director contacted Sural, he was a little rude and asked, "What do you mean when you say you don't have any money to pay?"

Sural's answer was, "Someone with Digital Phantom said that my net worth is too small and there is no need to continue paying."

"What?" The financial director was obviously a little surprised, "You're talking about... is that Digital Phantom?"

After he confirmed it, he didn't verify the authenticity of what he said. He just said, "You can do it yourself. I wish you good luck."

After all, we all belong to the same consortium. Although the financial director has a high position, he is only a small shareholder.

His shares are less than one thousandth One Capital, but Sural accounts for 3% of the shares.

The relationship between the two cannot be said to be close, and they occasionally quarrel, but there is no conflict.

Since the other party said that they were on Digital Phantom's line, the financial director would no longer supervise him - just respond to the situation.

His reaction was that of a thorough businessman, but others might not.

Two days later, someone from the government found Sural, which was just a small C-level one.

However, even if you are C-level, you are quite rude to Rank A: I heard that you don't want to pay, who are you trying to provoke? Core Circle's society, this phenomenon really exists. There are many people who do not respect those in power where their responsibilities are.

Of course, if you are facing the Supreme Being, the rule of "The Supreme Being shall not be insulted" is generally still there, but Rank A is really unnecessary.

Sural also knows that the other party is just a small clerk, but he has been patient for a long time.

Hearing this, he couldn't help but say: Who do you think you are? Don't you want to live? The C-class was frustrated, but they didn't dare to take action. They went back and reported to their superiors, and then Rank B from above came forward.

Rank B's attitude is even worse. If you don't pay, you will be responsible for the consequences!

Sural is really not so weak that he has to trouble Digital Phantom with everything. He also has his own dignity.

He responded simply, I am ready to bear the consequences, I just want to know who will deal with me, is it you?

However, this is where things got stuck. The financial director did not inform the government that Sural and Digital Phantom were on the line.

As for why you didn't file a lawsuit... is there any need to ask? Regardless of whether what Sural said is true or false, the director doesn't want to get into trouble.

If it is fake, the government will naturally deal with Sural. If it is true... it would be good for the two sides to collide.

Anyway, Director Buduo keeps talking, which can be regarded as helping Sural keep the secret and not offend anyone.

Rank B was really annoyed when he heard this: I'm so stupid, did I give you face? Just wait.

Two days later, a group of people came and took Sural away and put him under house arrest.

Next came various means, but Sural really didn't mention Digital Phantom, he just took it hard.

It's really not shameful enough to use the banner of Digital Phantom against such a little guy.

On the fifth day of his detention, it was rare that no one harassed him, and he finally had a good sleep.

However, on the sixth day, a Rank A came with a serious expression: How dare your people retaliate against the government?

Sural said neither softly nor hardly: Which of your eyes saw that he is my person? Please be careful what you say!

I can't pay attention! Rank A was furious: Do you know what happened yesterday?

Whatever happens has nothing to do with me! Sural replied unceremoniously, I am being held captive by you! Seriously, I want to ask, what is your reason for putting me under house arrest? To be honest, there is really no legitimate reason for this matter. If you insist on criticizing it, it means that you do not support the construction of the army.

But when it comes to this level of struggle, as long as everyone knows the reasons for arresting and releasing people.

Rank A was even more annoyed when he heard this. If you don't want to be under house arrest, I can let you go now. Just ask you, do you dare to leave?

As long as he dares to leave, there is a high probability that he will die inexplicably when he looks back - these are all tacit things.

Core Circle's public security is indeed very good, but there are too many inexplicable death cases.

The bigger the wind and waves, the more expensive the fish - don't just look at the high price of fish, strong winds and waves can really kill people! No matter which society's business war, it is not as naive as shown in the movie.

However, Sural is really stubborn: As long as you dare to let go, then I dare to leave!
