After leaving Bulma and the others, Jiang Yun hurried back to West City to meet Dr. Brief and show him the information he had obtained.
When he heard Jiang Yun had arrived, Dr. Brief said, "Mr. Jiang Yun, the Gravity Training Room you asked for hasn't been built yet. We've run into a small problem, so it'll probably take a few more days."
"Dr. Brief, I'm here to share something good with you."
As he spoke, Jiang Yun took out the plans for the most advanced spaceship in the universe, which he had obtained from Shenron. Shenron had directly implanted all that information into his mind. If Jiang Yun hadn't had such powerful mental strength, the dense streams of data would have left his head aching for a long time.
An ordinary person would probably have needed three days to recover. Jiang Yun had only felt briefly dizzy before he was fine again. There was nothing he could do about it afterward; it had taken him a great deal of effort to write down all the knowledge in his mind. He didn't understand the technology, and even with Shenron's knowledge etched into his brain, he was still completely lost.
If it had been anyone else, Jiang Yun wouldn't have dared to give them this knowledge. It was only spaceship technology, but it contained an enormous amount of advanced science. To Earth at its current stage, it was like a crushing technological advantage. The energy technology alone could leave Earth's current capabilities in the dust.
Jiang Yun dared to hand this technology over to Dr. Brief precisely because he knew what kind of person he was. Of course, Jiang Yun's own strength was another major reason he dared to do it.
Brief slowly accepted the thick stack of documents. At first, he didn't think much of them, but soon he was engrossed. As he read the long pages of notes, it was as though he were gazing upon the most beautiful thing in existence. At that moment, even if the world ended, it wouldn't matter to him. He had been swept up in the immense shock the documents had brought.
Jiang Yun called out to Dr. Brief several times, but he didn't hear him. Only after a long while did Brief seem to remember that someone else was there.
"Mr. Jiang Yun, where did you get these documents? And do you understand how valuable they are? To put it bluntly, if you have this, you have the world."
Dr. Brief spoke with excitement. It was a little exaggerated, but what he said was true. The technology in these documents was countless years ahead of Earth's. If it were ever developed, there would be no one who could stand against it. Don't think it was merely a set of spaceship designs; it touched on every field and represented the culmination of an entire civilization's technology. Knowing just how valuable the documents were, Dr. Brief could hardly believe Jiang Yun had handed them over so casually.
"Doctor, of course I know how valuable they are. They contain the most advanced technology in the world. If I released them, they could even overturn a nation and earn me more money than I could spend in several lifetimes."
Jiang Yun spoke calmly, as if he didn't care about the priceless documents. There was no helping it; in this world, technology served the strong.
The scientists working for Frieza, for example, had powerful technological skills, yet they were weak and barely held a higher position than menial laborers. That was the tragedy of the weak. That was why Jiang Yun was doing everything he could to grow stronger and help the people of Earth grow stronger, so they could become a powerful race in the universe.
Making his homeland and planet strong was something that had been etched into his very blood in his previous life. He couldn't bear to see Earth so weak in this world. Only by becoming self-reliant could it cast off the label of weakness. One person's strength did not make a race strong; a strong race, on the other hand, made every individual stronger.
He was working tirelessly toward that goal. It was for himself, and it was also for Earth. People weren't born strong, but they had the potential to become strong.
"Besides, this doesn't seem like technology that Earth could develop, does it?"
"That's right. I wished for it from Shenron."
Jiang Yun took a sip of tea and answered slowly.
"Shenron? The one Bulma keeps talking about?"
"That's right, Dr. Brief. I've already met your daughter. She's a very cute girl."
A faint smile appeared on Jiang Yun's face as if he had thought of something.
"Oh! I get it, I get it. This is the young people's world now!"
Looking at Jiang Yun's expression, Brief suddenly seemed to understand. He gave him a knowing look, as if they were in on the same secret.
Seeing Dr. Brief like that, Jiang Yun immediately realized he had misunderstood and couldn't help laughing helplessly. What was that supposed to mean? Still, Jiang Yun didn't explain. He knew the more he tried to clear things up, the more confusing it would become.
"By the way, Mr. Jiang Yun..."
Before Dr. Brief could finish, Jiang Yun interrupted him. "Dr. Brief, just call me Jiang Yun. I'm about the same age as your daughter, so I don't deserve to be called 'Mr.'"
"Fair enough. That'll make us feel closer. Anyway, Jiang Yun, what do you plan to do with these documents?"
Brief asked directly.
"Dr. Brief, since I've given them to you, I'll leave it up to you to decide what to do with them. I only have one request: I hope you can help me build a few spaceships."
Brief hadn't expected Jiang Yun's request to be so modest. He thought for a moment, then said, "Jiang Yun, I can't let you get the short end of the stick. How about you trade this for a twenty-percent stake in Capsule Corp?"
Jiang Yun was a little surprised by Dr. Brief's offer. He knew the documents were worth that much, if not more, but he also knew how difficult they would be to understand. At present, only a handful of people could make sense of them, and Dr. Brief was one of those few.
Besides, although the documents were immensely valuable, it would take a very long time to turn that value into money. Just look at how long it had taken Capsule Corp to reach its current position. Now he could get twenty percent of the company for free; an ordinary person would certainly have agreed.
But Jiang Yun didn't. He felt the documents weren't really worth that much, and his Martial Alliance also had its own assets, so he wasn't short of money. For that reason, he didn't want to accept the shares.
Jiang Yun's refusal surprised Dr. Brief, but he still insisted that Jiang Yun take the shares. Neither would give in, so they finally settled on a compromise: Jiang Yun accepted a ten-percent stake. His conduct also made Dr. Brief feel even more favorably toward him. There weren't many young people this outstanding anymore.
Afterward, Jiang Yun left Capsule Corp. As he walked away, he still felt a little dazed. Had he really just become Capsule Corp's second-largest shareholder? Since the company was wholly owned, Jiang Yun was now its second-largest shareholder.
Thinking about how he used to work himself to the bone to make money, only to become a shareholder in Capsule Corp and gain immense wealth so easily, Jiang Yun knew that everything he had now was thanks to his strength. If he wasn't strong enough in the future, he wouldn't be able to protect this wealth.
This only made Jiang Yun more determined to train.
