Chapter 76: Chapter 75 Investing in Crimson Preferred, I’ve Become a Shareholder【Subscription Request (7/10)】
Originally, after this guy became official, he wanted to earn enough soul coins to return to the real world. Even if safety was not an issue, it would take at least several days.
Who would have thought, as soon as he became official, he directly returned, which means he had already made quite a bit of money.
Mu Rufeng could detect a grinding of teeth in her tone.
Mu Rufeng didn’t care about that, smiling he said, “It’s good that Manager Liu remembers. I’m here this time because there’s something I’d like to discuss with you.”
“Although I don’t know where you got this phone card from, say it, what do you want to discuss?” Liu Mei said.
“Your Crimson Preferred seems to be in a tight spot recently, so I was wondering, do you accept investments?” Mu Rufeng got straight to the point.
“Investment? Haha, are you kidding me? How boring. Kid, don’t let me see you again, or I’ll devour you completely.”
Leaving behind a threatening message, Liu Mei promptly hung up the phone.
Mu Rufeng was stunned for a moment, then chuckled lightly.
Well, he was a Contractor, just engaging in empty talk about investing, who else should she hang up on?
Luckily for Mu Rufeng, this was happening on the Bloody Train, and Liu Mei couldn’t do anything to him.
If this were face to face, it felt like Liu Mei would definitely devour Mu Rufeng.
After pondering a while, Mu Rufeng didn’t continue calling. Instead, he reopened the Ghost Communication app.
He clicked on the recharge interface, entered Liu Mei’s phone number, and finally typed in the recharge amount. After injecting Ghost Power and verifying the password, the recharge was complete.
About ten seconds later, Mu Rufeng dialed Liu Mei’s number again.
“Manager Liu, has the phone credit reached you? How about now, can I talk to you?” Mu Rufeng spoke up.
“You… did you recharge that one million in phone credit?” Liu Mei’s tone was filled with disbelief.
“Of course. If you don’t believe me, shall I recharge a bit more for you?” Mu Rufeng said with a smile.
“You’re just a Contractor, where did you get so much money?”
“Where I got the money is none of your business. I’m just asking one question, does Crimson Preferred want an investment?” Mu Rufeng was tired of beating around the bush with Liu Mei.
“How much capital do you have?” After pondering for a moment, Liu Mei asked seriously.
“Don’t ask how much capital I have, see how much you need. No matter how much you need, that’s how much I’ll invest.”
“If you think I don’t have the funds for it, name a price, and I’ll transfer it immediately, as an initial investment,” Mu Rufeng declared boldly.
“Are you sure?” Liu Mei was shaken by Mu Rufeng’s words.
“Say it.”
“Alright, then transfer ten million first. My Heaven and Earth Bank card number is ********,” Liu Mei reported her bank account without any reservation.
“Wait for it.”
As soon as Mu Rufeng finished speaking, he communicated with the Heaven and Earth Bank Card, directly transferring fifty million to Liu Mei’s account.
You wanted ten million, fine, I gave you fifty million. Do you still doubt my funds?
“Did you receive it? I’ve transferred it over,” Mu Rufeng said nonchalantly.
“Fifty… fifty million? You…gurgle~~!”
Mu Rufeng could clearly hear the sound of Liu Mei swallowing.
“Are you really going to invest?” Liu Mei still seemed somewhat disbelieving.
“The money is in your account now, do you think I’m joking with you? Let’s not waste time then, you probably can’t decide on your own, get someone who can,” Mu Rufeng said.
“I can, I can decide,” Liu Mei quickly replied.
“Fine, then let’s talk. How much investment can you accept, how much stock are you willing to offer?” Mu Rufeng said.
…
Half an hour later.
Mu Rufeng transferred fifty billion into the company account of Crimson Preferred Group.
What Mu Rufeng received in return was a Rule Contract, also a shareholding contract, protected by the rules of the Mysterious World.
It wasn’t a large percentage of shares, just seven percent.
Crimson Preferred’s market value in the Mysterious World was around fifty billion, so by rights, investing fifty billion should have secured ten percent.
But no matter what, they would only offer seven percent of the shares, otherwise, they wouldn’t accept the investment.
Moreover, if Mu Rufeng wasn’t a Contractor, even if he offered a hundred billion, they wouldn’t have agreed.
Mu Rufeng wasn’t short of money, so he agreed.
If they had been willing to accept more investment, Mu Rufeng would have felt like buying Crimson Preferred outright.
With that seven percent stake, Mu Rufeng smoothly became the third-largest shareholder of Crimson Preferred.
The largest shareholder was naturally the Crimson Preferred Group itself, and the second-largest was the General Manager of Crimson Preferred.
During this half-hour, Mu Rufeng had a long chat with Liu Mei and even spoke with the General Manager of Crimson Preferred.
Ultimately, this investment cooperation was facilitated.
Mu Rufeng glanced at his balance, well, he still had over nine hundred billion left.
After all the spending and circling around, it felt like he barely used any money.
On this train, there really wasn’t much to spend on.
“Never mind, never mind, I won’t think about it anymore, I’ll just go to sleep, let it be a waste, after all, it was all free.”
Mu Rufeng couldn’t be bothered to think too much, he just lay down on the bed and fell asleep instantly.
…
He didn’t know how much time had passed when Mu Rufeng, in a drowsy state, was woken up by a series of knocks on the door.
“Thud, thud, thud!”
“Mr. Mu, Mr. Mu, Changhong Amusement Park Station is coming up.”
“Mr. Mu? The tenth stop is coming up.”
The train conductor’s shouts could be heard outside the door.
“Is it almost time to arrive?” Mu Rufeng stood up, replying aloud.
“Yes, Mr. Mu, there are only ten minutes left until we arrive,” said the train conductor.
In a short while, Mu Rufeng opened the door.
“Mr. Mu, this is your Flame Vehicle Card,” the train conductor respectfully handed the card to Mu Rufeng.
“Mhm,” Mu Rufeng nodded and pocketed the card.
After stepping out of his room, Mu Rufeng headed towards the dining car.
However, halfway there, Mu Rufeng turned around and said to the train conductor following him, “Train conductor, go attend to your duties; no need to follow me.”
“Mr. Mu, you are the most honored guest on our train, so naturally, I should personally see you off,” the train conductor hurriedly said.
“No need, I don’t like all this fuss,” Mu Rufeng waved his hand. Without waiting for the train conductor to respond, he strode towards the dining car.
Seeing this, the train conductor had no choice but to return to the driver’s cabin.
…
Upon entering the dining car, one could see that there were indeed numerous anomalies—well over a dozen.
These were all new faces, obviously passengers who had boarded later.
When Mu Rufeng made his appearance, all eyes turned towards him.
Initially, they thought Mu Rufeng came from the direction of the train’s engine, surely a powerful entity or a staff member of the train.
When they realized Mu Rufeng was a human contractor, their eyes couldn’t help but fill with greed and a thick malice.
“Actually, there’s a contractor. This guy must not be afraid of dying.”
“That’s odd; how come he’s coming from the engine?”
“Never mind that; hurry up, waiter, come here. This fellow here is a human—he definitely doesn’t have a thousand soul coins on him. I reserve one of his thighs.”
“You’re quite fast, I’ll take the other thigh.”
“I won’t fight with you all; to me, just his head will do.”
In an instant, the dozen anomalies began squabbling over Mu Rufeng’s body parts as if they were talking up slices of a pie.
Even a few anomalies nearly came to blows due to the uneven distribution.
“Shut up.”
The bartender, Xiao Fei, suddenly shouted from behind the bar, then quickly approached, bending down with an extremely respectful demeanor.
“Mr. Mu, you must be leaving soon. There are seven minutes until we reach the station. Why don’t you rest here for a bit? I’ll pour you a glass of water. Oh, and would you like something to eat?”
Xiao Fei guided Mu Rufeng to an empty dining table.
“Just a bottle of water will do. I’m not used to the food on the train. I’ll eat something familiar once I’m back in the real world,” Mu Rufeng said.
“Alright, Mr. Mu,” Xiao Fei nodded and immediately turned towards the bar.
As he walked past those anomalies, he shot them fierce glares as a warning.
One anomaly, unbothered, stood up and actually started walking towards Mu Rufeng.
At that very moment, a heavy sense of oppression suddenly descended upon the carriage.
“Mr. Mu is our train’s most valued guest. Whoever disturbs Mr. Mu will become fuel for the train.”
The train conductor appeared at the entrance to the carriage, his face frosty, bringing a significant amount of pressure to the anomalies.
Especially the anomaly that had been heading towards Mu Rufeng, who now crumpled to his knees under the pressure, a pained expression on his face.
“I… I made a mistake, please forgive me, train conductor, and sir, I’m sorry,” the anomaly hastily begged for mercy.
The train conductor didn’t acknowledge him but instead looked towards Mu Rufeng.
Seeing this, Mu Rufeng slightly nodded.
“Hmph, there won’t be a next time, even the rules won’t protect you,” the train conductor snorted coldly, withdrawing his imposing aura.
“Thank you, train conductor, and thank you, sir,” the anomaly quickly thanked them. Then, not daring to linger any longer in the dining car, he left his unfinished meal behind and walked out.
At this moment, the rest of the anomalies in the carriage fell silent as if struck by fear.
…
“Ding dong! The train has now arrived at Changhong Amusement Park Station. Passengers disembarking at this station, please line up to exit.”
“Ding dong! The train has now arrived at Changhong Amusement Park Station. Passengers disembarking at this station, please line up to exit.”
“Ding dong! The train has now arrived at Changhong Amusement Park Station. Passengers disembarking at this station, please line up to exit.”
The train’s broadcast announcement sounded.
The doors also opened simultaneously.
Mu Rufeng stood up and walked towards the door.
Waiter Xiao Fei was already standing by the entrance, waiting for Mu Rufeng’s arrival.
The train conductor appeared right on time, respectfully seeing off Mu Rufeng.
Looking at the two, Mu Rufeng waved his hand, “I’m off, see you next time. By the way, when I reach Level 9 and decide to trouble Gluttonous Cruise, remember to call me.”
“Mr. Mu, rest assured, we will definitely notify you,” the train conductor said solemnly.
Watched by the train conductor and Xiao Fei, Mu Rufeng stepped off the train.
What do you think?
