Brief's Excitement

After parting ways with Bulma and her group, Jiang Yun hurried back to West City to meet with Dr. Brief, hoping to show him the data he had acquired.

Upon learning of Jiang Yun's arrival, Dr. Brief said, "Mr. Jiang Yun, the Gravity Training Room you requested isn't finished yet. We've run into a small problem, so it will likely take a few more days."

"Dr. Brief, I came here this time to share something excellent with you."

As he spoke, Jiang Yun produced the data for the most advanced spacecraft in the universe, which he had obtained from Shenron. When Shenron had originally generated the data directly into his mind, it was only thanks to his formidable mental strength that he hadn't been incapacitated by the dense stream of information.

An ordinary person would have needed three days to recover, but he had only felt a brief wave of dizziness before being fine. Once he realized what had happened, he had no choice but to spend a great deal of effort writing down all the knowledge from his mind. He didn't understand this technology; even with the knowledge etched into his brain by Shenron, he remained completely bewildered.

Had it been anyone else, Jiang Yun would never have dared to hand over this knowledge. Although it was just spacecraft technology, the level of science contained within was immense. To the current Earth, that knowledge was a dimensional strike; the energy technology alone would be enough to crush the current Earth into the dirt.

It was precisely because he knew Dr. Brief's character that Jiang Yun dared to entrust him with this technology. Of course, his own strength was also a major reason why he felt confident doing so.

Dr. Brief slowly took the long stack of documents. At first, he didn't pay much attention, but as he read on, he became increasingly engrossed. Looking at the lengthy manuscript, he seemed to be gazing upon the most beautiful thing in the world. At that moment, even if the world were to end, it would have nothing to do with him; he was completely lost in the immense shock brought about by the data.

Jiang Yun called out to Dr. Brief several times, but he didn't hear a thing. It wasn't until a long while later that Dr. Brief seemed to remember there was someone else in the room.

"Mr. Jiang Yun, where did you get this data? Do you realize how much it's worth? To put it bluntly, if you possess this, you possess the world."

Dr. Brief spoke in an excited tone. While it might have sounded like an exaggeration, it was the truth. The technology here was ahead of Earth by who knows how many years. If it were manufactured, no one would be able to stop it. Do not think of it as merely spacecraft technology; it touched upon every aspect and was the crystallization of that civilization's science. It was precisely because he knew the value of this data that Dr. Brief found it hard to believe Jiang Yun would hand it over so easily.

"Doctor, of course I know its value. It possesses the most advanced technology in the world. Releasing it could topple a nation, or even earn me more wealth than I could spend in several lifetimes."

Jiang Yun said calmly, seemingly indifferent to the massive value of the data. There was no help for it; in this world, technology served the strong.

Like the researchers under Frieza, despite their powerful technological capabilities, their lack of personal strength meant their status was barely higher than that of a common laborer. This was the tragedy of the weak, which was why Jiang Yun was doing everything in his power to grow stronger and to help the people of Earth grow stronger, so that they might become a powerful race in the universe.

Making his homeland and planet strong was something ingrained in his blood from his previous life. He could not stand to see Earth so weak in this world. Only through self-improvement could they shed the label of the weak. One person's strength did not equal the strength of a race, and only the strength of the race was the true strength of every individual.

He was striving toward this goal without a moment of slack. This was for himself, and equally, for Earth. Though humans were not born strong, they possessed the potential to become so.

"Besides, this doesn't seem like technology that could be achieved on Earth, right?"

"Indeed. I obtained this by making a wish to Shenron."

Jiang Yun took a sip of tea and said slowly.

"Shenron? Is that the Shenron that Bulma is always talking about?"

"Yes, Dr. Brief. I have already met your daughter; she is a very lovely young lady."

Jiang Yun seemed to think of something, a faint smile appearing on his face.

"Oh! I understand, I understand. It's the world of the young now!"

Watching Jiang Yun's expression, Dr. Brief suddenly realized something, wearing a look of mutual understanding.

Seeing Dr. Brief like this, Jiang Yun immediately knew he had misunderstood. He couldn't help but feel a mix of amusement and frustration. What kind of situation was this? However, Jiang Yun didn't explain; he knew that the more one tried to explain such things, the more tangled and unclear they became.

"By the way, Mr. Jiang Yun..."

Before Dr. Brief could finish, Jiang Yun interrupted, "Dr. Brief, please just call me Jiang Yun. I am about the same age as your daughter; I cannot accept the title of 'Mr.'"

"Very well, that sounds more intimate. By the way, what do you intend to do with this data, Jiang Yun?"

Dr. Brief asked, getting straight to the point.

"Dr. Brief, since I have given it to you, it is naturally yours to handle. However, I do have one request: I hope you can help me build a few spacecraft."

Dr. Brief hadn't expected Jiang Yun's request to be so modest. He pondered for a moment before continuing, "Jiang Yun, I cannot let you suffer such a loss. How about this: in exchange, I will give you twenty percent of the shares in Capsule Corp."

Jiang Yun was a bit surprised by Dr. Brief's approach. He knew that while his data was worth that price—and perhaps even more—the difficulty of the material was immense. Few could understand it, and Dr. Brief was one of them.

Furthermore, while the data was incredibly valuable, it would take a very long time to monetize. One had to consider how long it had taken Capsule Corp to reach its current state. If he accepted, he would be getting twenty percent of the company for free; anyone else would have agreed immediately.

But Jiang Yun did not. He felt that his data wasn't actually worth that much in practice, and his own Martial Alliance had its own assets; he wasn't lacking for money. Therefore, he didn't want to accept the shares.

His refusal surprised Dr. Brief, who nonetheless firmly insisted that Jiang Yun accept. Neither would budge, so they finally settled on a compromise: Jiang Yun accepted ten percent of the shares. Jiang Yun's behavior earned him even more of Dr. Brief's favor; there weren't many young people as outstanding as him left.

Afterward, Jiang Yun left Capsule Corp. Before he departed, he still felt a bit dazed. He had just become the second-largest shareholder of Capsule Corp. Since the company was entirely held by the family, Jiang Yun was now the second-largest shareholder.

Thinking of how he used to struggle to make money, he had now easily become a shareholder of Capsule Corp, sitting on immense wealth. But Jiang Yun knew that everything he had now was brought about by his own strength. If his strength were to falter in the future, he wouldn't be able to hold onto this wealth.

This only made Jiang Yun more determined to continue his training.
