“I’ve already investigated his background.”
Shan Qingyuan slowly took a sip of wine and said, “It’s a kid from the Han family. His name is Han Xing.”
The Han family? As soon as he said this, the few families present looked at each other. They had never heard of this name in the Northern Province.
Shan Qingyuan saw through their thoughts. He slowly explained, “They’re not from the Northern Province, but a small family in Rainbow City, Sichuan Province.”
As soon as these words were said, these families immediately lost interest in inquiring. In a remote area like Rainbow City, what kind of prestigious family could it be?
He wasn’t even worthy of mentioning at all. A small hiccup could directly blow his family up.
The smile on Shan Qingyuan’s face did not change as he slowly said, “In Rainbow City, the Han family and the Pan family have won the bid for the first offline competition in the Second World.”
This piece of information shocked these people. The Li family’s head slapped his thigh fiercely.
“I remember now! It was the Han family that made the Lin family suffer a loss last time.”
“Speaking of which, I’m a little curious. How did this project fall into the hands of this small family?”
“The Lin family doesn’t dare to make things too difficult for the Han family. They only suffered a loss last time. Do you know why?” Shan Qingyuan said meaningfully.
Everyone shook their heads. The Liu family’s head even straightforwardly flattered, “In terms of information, we still have to ask you, Brother Shan. Other than him, who else could be so well-informed?”
At this point, everyone laughed and there was no lack of flattery in their words. Shan Qingyuan naturally could tell, but he had no intention of hiding it.
“You all know of the person from the Second World, Star Rebel, right?”
These families all nodded. Who didn’t know about this mysterious person? They tried to find out more about this person, but they still couldn’t find any information about him. It was as if he had been erased by a mysterious force.
The Second World had basically become a place for these family businesses to expand.
However, all the limelight had been given to this player named Star Rebel. There were many people who guessed that he was secretly from a noble family. The items he casually took out, as well as special class skills, were definitely not something that a simple player could obtain.
“The person behind the Han family is none other than Star Rebel. It isn’t completely certain the Han family will handle this project well, but there are two things that the Lin family can rest assured about.”
“First, it’s because of Star Rebel. Second, the Han family has also learned about the inside story of the Second World.”
“Han Xing has even detailed the future development trend of the Second World in the bidding document. He will adapt to the best venue in advance according to this trend. Even if something really happened in the future, it would ensure that most people had the ability to survive.”
Shan Qingyuan’s words were like a bolt of lightning, shocking the families present.
They didn’t know much about the Second World. If they hadn’t listened to Shan Qingyuan’s explanation, they wouldn’t have known that Han Xing had played such a deep game.
“Previously, I was even commenting that the Lin family was crazy. So there’s still this type of business. If the Han family could succeed in this matter, the Lin family would probably discuss the matter of cooperation with them.”
The Zhang family’s head sighed. Then, the way he looked at Shan Qingyuan changed again and again. No wonder Han Xing had acted so brazenly in the Shan family. Shan Qingyuan had no intention of dealing with him.
As long as they had a connection with Star Rebel in the Second World, their future plans would be extremely convenient.
Han Xing wasn’t someone they could deal with yet. Once they could establish contact with Star Rebel, Shan Qingyuan would make a move against Han Xing sooner or later.
Shan Wei, who was listening to them talk about these secrets, was shocked.
He knew that his father was farsighted, but he didn’t expect that his father would consider this. As expected, he was still far inferior to his father.
He knew that with his father’s personality, how could he let his little sister do whatever she wanted? If it was any other time, he would have captured his little sister and put her under house arrest.
At the thought of this, a fawning smile appeared on his face.
After all the people from these families left, Shan Wei stepped forward and carefully asked, “Dad, is the Second World really that important?”
Shan Qingyuan looked at Shan Wei with a deep gaze. This gaze made Shan Wei’s scalp go numb. He was currently not feeling well and had already left to rest. Only the father and son were left at the scene.
“Shan Wei, stupidity isn’t scary. What’s important is that you don’t know your stupidity.”
Shan Wei was even more stunned by these words. He did not dare to reply and only silently thought about the meaning behind Shan Qingyuan’s words.
Shan Qingyuan could only explain when he saw how stupid he was.
“The Second World is more than important. It’s simply a way for humans to evolve again!”
“It’s just that we’re still making slow progress.”
Shan Wei naturally didn’t understand this, but he still took credit for it and boasted, “Dad, my guild is developing very well in the Second World.”
“Of course, I know.” Shan Qingyuan’s voice was a little colder. He had invested a lot of money in the Second World, but the Divine General Guild still could not compare to the foreign guilds.
That’s right, the Shan family’s guild was the Divine General Guild. They had a cooperative relationship with the Jiang family’s White Rainbow Guild, but neither of the two guilds gained any advantage in this guild war.
Last time, they had become a laughing stock because of the conflict with the Mad Dragon Guild.
Now, the people from these families also knew to restrain themselves. They couldn’t afford to offend Star Rebel, so they decided to take a different approach and not fight against Star Rebel and his guild.
“But we’ve had a conflict with Star Rebel and the others before. Even if we want to work with them, they might not agree to it.”
Shan Qingyuan shook his head at Shan Wei’s words. He replied, “What’s important is not cooperation, but the distribution of benefits.”
“Star Rebel isn’t an id*ot. As long as we give him a fair share of the profits, he’ll agree to it.”
This could be seen in the cooperation between the Han family and Star Rebel. Han Xing must have spent quite a bit of money to invite Star Rebel over. Shan Qingyuan pondered over this matter and didn’t connect Han Xing to Star Rebel at all.
In his eyes, a person like Star Rebel wasn’t someone who could be nurtured by any ordinary family. He was either a member of a reclusive family or a low-profile member of a noble family.
How could a small family like the Han family raise such a top-notch talent?
Shan Wei nodded and said, “Oh right, Dad, you should level up in the Second World as soon as possible. Otherwise, there will be many missions you can’t do.”
“No need for that!” Shan Qingyuan disagreed. “Those are all unimportant things.”
“What you need to do now is to hurry up and upgrade your skills. The higher the upgrade, the better. Hurry up and level those up.”
Shan Wei was a little confused. “Why?”
Shan Qingyuan’s eyes were burning with passion, and his voice was a little excited. He answered, “Silly child. Next year, the Second World would merge with the real world, and the skills in the game can be used in the real world. The highest level of fusion could reach 30% of the game’s standard..”
