Chapter 144: Do You Think That I Can’t Count!?

Being a high-level perfectionist, when Hong Dali saw these two Side Missions, he was so excited that he couldn’t sleep.

Since there was no rush to upgrade the System and no time restriction, he definitely had to complete these two Side Missions!

As for the Mission Reward… since it was for the purpose of squandering anyway, what Hong Dali enjoyed was the process of doing the mission. As for what the reward was, he wasn’t concerned over it at all!

Hong Dali pretended to sleep while considering. Yeah, these two Side Missions are not bad, indeed. I shall start doing them once I’m done with adding the attribute points! How should I add the attribute points? Split it evenly or add it on a single attribute first? Coupled with the mission reward, I have a total of 94 attribute points now. I can definitely max one of the attributes, but strength, speed, and reflexes are interlinked. If I add everything evenly, there won’t be much of a point if my body cannot react fast enough to my reflexes. It also won’t do if my speed is fast but I can’t react in time… Then, this means that strength is the least important of them all.

After a long time considering, Hong Dali fiercely clenched his teeth and thought: Strength: 36. Speed: 41. Reflexes: 52. Strength is not as important, I don’t have much use for it now. Not like I will be fighting with others. Then, for the 94 attribute points, I shall add 40 to Reflex and 54 to Speed. That will result in 95 in Speed and 92 in Reflex—not bad. It’s decided, then!

He then added the attribute points as he had decided. Again, a golden light that only Hong Dali could see flashed by. Hong Dali instantly felt his mind lighten up and his body became more agile… OK, this was purely his imagination.

Regardless of that, this Great Prodigal System was definitely legit. Therefore, Hong Dali wasn’t suspicious at all of the results of adding in the attribute points.

What he was considering now was how to complete the two Side Missions.

For the first one, The Caring Little Prodigal, from the title effect, it was apparent it had to do with animals. The question was how exactly go about doing it. But there wasn’t much fear in that since it definitely had to do with caring for them.

As for the second one, the System actually said that the Current Progress was already 232/1000, how did that happen? Could it be that he unknowingly already started doing this Mission?

No matter how he thought, he couldn’t remember what he did regarding the environment. Fengyuan Lake? There are mountains and water there. Other than that, only the outer area of Tianjing Mountain is left. Wait! The outer area of Tianjing Mountain? Didn’t I send people to clear the trash in that area? So this means that the second Mission refers to clearing trash such as tissues and plastic bags? Heh heh, as long as it’s this, things will be much easier. I will just have to ask someone about it later to confirm.

Thinking up to this point, just as Hong Dali was preparing to take a good nap, he suddenly heard a commotion going on outside. Being a well-known prodigal and hedonist, Hong Dali was instantly angered. “Who is that! Shut up! How am I supposed to sleep!? Do you believe that I’m going to get someone to kick you to the first level!”

Just when he finished shouting, a group of three angrily barged in. The lead person, a middle-aged man, instantly bombarded Hong Dali with questions upon seeing him. “We have already offered you a good price just for the right to host and broadcast in our South Korea. Why did you reject!? Are you looking down on the citizens from the Republic of Korea!?” After they barged in, another four Merikans followed in behind them.

What the heck, there were still those who forced others to trade these days?

Hong Dali looked at Zhang Cai, who was following behind them, and asked in a puzzled tone, “Sister Cai, have they taken the wrong medicine?”

Zhang Cai helplessly said, “It was like this. I have already told them that we don’t have any plans to sell the rights overseas currently, but they kept saying that we’re rejecting them because we think that the price is too low. So, they ran here to ask you.”

“Oh, I see.” Hong Dali sniffled and looked at the four Merikans behind them. “What about you guys?”

One of them, a glasses yellow-bearded man, said, “Oh, it’s like this. My dear Mr. Hong, we also want to buy over the rights to host ‘I Am a Singer,’ and our price is four million US dollars. But we also wish that Mr. Hong can lend us the Holographic Projection Technology.”

“This price is acceptable.” Hong Dali snapped his fingers and said towards Zhang Cai, “Sister Cai, you can follow them and bring the equipment over. Once they finish the performances, bring it back immediately.”

Zhang Cai tolerated the urge to laugh. “Ok, Young Master. I will go there personally.”

This Young Master is really too evil. These Merikans want to steal the technology, but now that Hong Dali has already thrown down his words, they can borrow the technology, but it can’t go through their hands. This way, even if they want to steal the technology, they have no way of doing it. But they can’t reject. Otherwise, it will be obvious that something fishy is going on.

As expected, the bearded guy’s face turned gloomy. But since he had already said so, it was impossible to take back his words now. In the end, he could only clench his teeth and nod. “OK! Dear Mr. Hong, you’re really formidable.”

Hong Dali grinned and replied, “When you learn to become a prodigal like me, you will be as formidable too.”

“You actually dared to look down upon the citizens from the Republic of Korea, we can also offer three million! We want the same treatment!” Seeing that the Merikans bought over the hosting rights, the Koreans instantly objected.

Hearing them say so, Hong Dali was instantly angered. “They offered four million in US dollars. You’re only offering three million, do you think that I can’t count?”

The Korean arrogantly said, “We don’t need the Holographic Projection Technology! So, we feel that our offer already shows our sincerity. Three million is enough!”

“Oh, but the problem is, I still don’t plan to sell…” Hong Dali nonchalantly shrugged his shoulders.

“This is racial discrimination, we will sue you!” The Koreans were furious upon hearing this. They wanted to reason with him, but Hong Dali stared at them with eyes like a dead fish’s, and with an emotionless face, he resolutely ordered, “Throw them out simnida.”

At this moment, there weren’t any more words that needed to be said. Instantly, three male lackeys, along with a few security guards, pulled them out…

Hong Dali concluded: “If I sell the rights to these few Oppas, wouldn’t they just announce that ‘I Am a Singer’ belongs to their country? I definitely can’t agree with that. I must not give them any chance at all simnida.”

Tang Muxin laughed till her stomach ached. She held her stomach and said, “Dali, you’re really too evil, hehe.”

Li Nianwei smiled and shook her head. This Young Master, if anyone took him for a fool, they would definitely suffer the consequences.

Everyone laughed for a while. Then, the three lackeys, along with the security guards, came back gallantly and full of vigor. They walked up to Hong Dali and saluted. “Young Master, we have completed the mission!”

“Reward! Everyone 5,000!” Hong Dali laughed loudly. Having settled these simnidas, he was in quite a good mood. “Lackeys, let’s go down to Zhong Dian website and take a look!”

“Roger that!” The lackeys instantly led the way.

Chenhui Building, level eight, Zhong Dian website headquarters.

“Welcome, Young Master!” Hearing that Hong Dali was here to inspect their work, the various staff from Zhong Dian gathered and lined up in two rows, shouting the greeting in unison. At the same time, they all put on their happiest face—the God of Fortune had come again, they would be fools if they didn’t smile!

Hong Dali was never stingy toward his own workers. “Reward! Everyone 2,000!”

Instantly, three male lackeys rushed forth. Then, a female lackey even carried a cash counting machines in her arms—Hong Dali really admired her for this idea, and therefore, the female lackey instantly received a reward of 5,000 yuan.

Thus, a group of Zhong Dian employees lined, and the cash counting machine started to count the cash. The efficiency really improved a lot, and Hong Dali expressed that he was very satisfied with it.

After all the tips were distributed, Hong Dali casually sat on the main seat. The Director of Zhong Dian, Yang Zhiqi, walked up. This time, he learned from the previous lesson and didn’t waste time with officialities. He directly reported: “Young Master, the daily IP for Zhong Dian website has reached 500,000 and is still rising. Every day, there are about 40 to 50 new authors starting on a new novel. The number of novels that were updated these past three days has increased from 500 plus to 1200. Also, the readers also expressed interest in the novels written by the five Great Gods.”

Hong Dali was quite satisfied with the progress. “Yup, not bad, not bad at all. Later, give everyone another 1,000 yuan red packet each. Also, I heard that you have increased the price for the severance fee for those five? That’s a good idea!”

“Yes, yes. That was Director Sun’s idea.” Although he was unwilling, Yang Zhiqi didn’t dare to steal Sun Wenyang’s credit. “Director Sun’s strategies are all quite useful. Young Master, do you think you should…” Saying so, he made a gesture of counting money.

Other things aside, in the future, this Sun Wenyang would definitely be one of the most popular people in Zhong Dian. If he could maintain a good relationship with him now, it would be easier to discuss things with him in the future, right?

How could Hong Dali not reward such a capable employee? “Reward! 5,000!”

Sun Wenyuang immediately rushed forth and expressed his gratitude. “From now on, I will definitely do my best to spend money as much as I can. I will definitely not let Young Master down.”

Hong Dali humphed like the eunuch who follows the emperor. “Yup, you’re quite capable. Not bad!” Then, he asked Director Yang, “Is there any more good news?”

Yang Zhiqi said, “Yes! Some companies want to buy over the TV adaptation rights for Dark Dragon of the Universe’s novel. They offered 500,000, but I thought that you might need it one day, so I didn’t dare sell it.”

Hong Dali raised his hand. “Not selling is the correct thing to do, you did well! 5,000! Oh right, there weren’t any advertisements this period, it’s much more comfortable reading novels now. You did well for this matter!”

Yang Zhiqi furiously wiped away his sweat. “Yes, yes. But, Young Master, there are already 30 plus companies wanting to advertise on our website now. The price isn’t low, either. I have already calculated before. In a month’s time, we can earn as much as one million. Do you think…” Speaking to this point, he immediately explained, “I don’t mean to say that we’re in lack of this little money. But if we don’t accept them, they will go over to Turkey Bookstore to put up their advertisements. We shouldn’t let our opponents take this opportunity to earn money, right?”

Hong Dali instantly decided without another word. “No! Don’t accept even a single one of them! I’m using the website to squander, not to earn money. As for where they put their advertisements, what that has got to do with me? Reject all of them!”
