Although these people were all tools working for him, Su Ye knew perfectly well that if he wanted a horse to run, he had to feed it.
If he gave them nothing and simply squeezed them dry, who would have the motivation to keep risking their lives for him?
Only by tying their interests together could the Expedition Alliance function like a precision machine, bringing him a steady stream of resources.
"Absolutely! You really do look after us, Alliance Leader. Let me thank you on behalf of those little punks."
Mo Yu's eyes lit up, and he smiled as he nodded repeatedly.
With this enormous sum, he would have all the financial backing he could possibly need, whether he wanted to strengthen the members, distribute benefits, or continue monopolizing the market.
After putting away the Survival Coins and the Storage Ring filled with Aurora Shards, Su Ye chatted with Mo Yu a little longer about the Alliance's future direction, then left the Alliance Base.
A flash of white light swept past, and Su Ye returned to the Gale Ranger's Training Room.
Su Ye first opened his account. His current balance had already exceeded nine billion Survival Coins, putting him close to the ten-billion mark.
"When it comes to making money, monopolies really are the way to go."
Su Ye chuckled, then turned his gaze to the Storage Ring in his hand.
He extended his mind into it.
More than eighteen million Aurora Shards shone within the Storage Ring's space, like mountains of dazzling stars radiating an enchanting glow.
"That should be enough to buy up all those good things in the shop."
Su Ye immediately opened the Event Shop again.
This time, he did not hesitate. His gaze went straight to the exchange items that had caught his eye earlier.
