Bai Ze's series of maneuvers left everyone's eyes wide open.
At that moment, the representative of Heavens Forbidden Ground spoke. "Even counting all of this, you're still down four hundred million."
"How do you intend to make up those four hundred million?"
"Don't panic. I still have an ultimate move."
Bai Ze gave a mysterious smile, then shouted at Chai Yan in the distance.
"Girl, light it up!"
At the command, the timber Chai Yan had collected over ten years was set ablaze in an instant.
Watching the raging flames in the distance, Bai Ze said smugly, "Sky Abyss City purchases soil by volume."
"That timber over there is the 'trash' you discarded when transporting soil in the past."
"I'll burn the timber into charcoal, grind it up, and mix it into the soil. That way, the volume of the soil increases."
"Conservatively speaking, that'll earn me another hundred million."
At Bai Ze's method, everyone's gazes immediately turned to Chen Changsheng.
The meaning was obvious: they all believed this maneuver violated the rules.
Yet under the gaze of so many people, Chen Changsheng said calmly, "Sky Abyss City purchases soil in order to cultivate a vast Medicine Field."
"The composition of soil is very complex. It contains water, as well as decayed remnants of plants."
"To reduce the weight of transport, you often drained the water from it before bringing it over."
"At the same time, soil with its moisture drained becomes somewhat looser and takes up more volume."
"These little tricks of yours have made Sky Abyss City's follow-up work far more troublesome."
"Between the two, I'd rather purchase Bai Ze's soil, because it doesn't require any extra processing."
"That is also why I contracted some matters out. When personnel are scattered too widely, quality is difficult to control."
