After Tang San and Xiao Wu left, Oscar took the crystal and tucked it into his storage pouch. He then found the Sky Net intelligence agents lying in wait nearby and told them to have Li Jianqiu deliver ten thousand Gold Soul Coins to the shop. He also had them bring the crystal to Li Jianqiu and tell him to keep it safe.
This was the first time Oscar had drawn on the organization's assets. Li Jianqiu did not refuse either; any treasure important enough for Oscar to value was clearly no ordinary item.
Besides, considering this leader's contributions to Sky Net, let alone ten thousand Gold Soul Coins, even if Oscar wanted to completely empty Sky Net's coffers, Li Jianqiu would raise both hands and feet in agreement.
As for what to do with the treasure, Oscar planned to wait until someone suitable within the organization appeared, then hand it out as a reward.
As for actually paying ten thousand Gold Soul Coins, he simply did not want to take advantage of Flender.
His adoptive father was his adoptive father. Sky Net was Sky Net.
He had long since become independent. There was no reason for him to cling to his father like a parasite while building his own organization.
In fact, as early as a year ago, he had already used the rewards he earned from the Great Soul Arena to give back to Shrek Academy.
Of course, that was beside the point. Oscar kept watch over the shop until nightfall, then, after closing up, went to the Rose Hotel to wait for Dai Mubai and dragged him out for a drink.
"Mubai, I know you resent me deep down.
I wronged you over that senior brother matter and made you miserable. I'll punish myself with three drinks."
