“Well, the application for launching ‘Rejuvenation Fluid’ and ‘Yang Energy Pill’ has been approved.

“Right now, deposits paid to us through various channels alone have reached a billion!”

Back in the players’ base in Yang City, Ji Ye told Su Mingcheng.

After announcing their business partnership with the Twin Dragon Island, the stock price of the Su Group had risen by over 20 times in the past few days. Having obtained the controlling interest of the group. Su Mingcheng rose quickly on the Chidragon Billionaires List and was said to be a contender for the richest person of Southwest Province!

Of course, those who knew better were well aware of the fact that things like stock prices or personal wealth had no significance at all.

Because when any new technology brought out of the Land of Inheritance was successfully replicated, the stock price of the company that owned it would skyrocket.

However, once the person or settlement partnered with the company failed in the Land of Inheritance, the stock price would plummet like a falling rocket.

Nowadays, such things happen on Earth every day.

Because of that, Su Mingcheng had remained quite unaffected by the fact that he was going to become the richest man of Southwest Province.

Instead, he spent all his energy in opening the market as fast as he could.

“We’ve been given permission to use ‘Dragon City’ as a licensed trademark.

“Master Ji, from now on, this trademark will exclusively belong to your settlement when the Land of Inheritance is concerned,” said Su Mingcheng.

The “licensed trademark” was a new measure the Confederate government came up with recently.

In order to support the cooperation between the Land of Inheritance and the companies on Earth or even various national institutions to the greatest extent, only the companies related to the Land of Inheritance could apply.

“Moreover, the Phase I design drawing of the Dragon City Base has been completed, and the estimated cost is 17 billion.

“But at the current rate of technological development, the actual cost may drop by 25% to 48% when the project is finally completed.”

Su Mingcheng opened a folded mobile phone in his hand and projected a model of a commercial-residential building under construction in front of them.

It was a “3D projection” mobile phone just released by Gaagle yesterday. This kind of well-developed technology on Earth was naturally the fastest to copy.

During the past few days, the Twin Dragon Island had mainly done two things on Earth.

First of all, they had established the Dragon City Group.

After that, they started building the Dragon City Base, which was to take care of future Dragon City players and employers on Earth.

Because the Confederate government had made the announcement that players’ bases in the cities would be gradually removed, it became necessary for the Twin Dragon Island to build a base of its own.

Why “Dragon City”?

Because although “Twin Dragon Mount” was fine as a name of a settlement, it didn’t sound grand enough.

Plus, it wouldn’t be a suitable name as a trademark.

Therefore, after some consideration, the Twin Dragon Island decided to call itself “Dragon City” on Earth, which was also going to be the name for the new city the island was going to build.

Moreover, all the expenses of the Dragon City Group and the Dragon City Base would be covered by the Twin Dragon Island.

As for where the tens of billions came from, obviously, the fund wasn’t raised from the players of the Twin Dragon Island. Rather, it was in the form of a loan.

One of the functions of the newly established Honor system that the confederate government had announced was that one could apply for an investment loan from the United World Bank, using the Honor points as the collateral.

The Honor points that the Twin Dragon Island had accumulated were one of the highest on Earth, second only to the settlements who had gained a lot of Earth Honor points by exchanging a great number of resources with Rare Honor.

Right now, the island could borrow over a billion from the World Bank.

This time, because they had provided the Confederation Office with the requirement for a settlement to rise to the Transcendent level, once the evaluation was finished, they would probably be able to make a loan of 5 billion.

But that was still not enough to complete the entire Dragon City Base.

But products like Black Mud and Stone Milk were ready to be launched, and capital would be flowing in continuously.

Apart from the fact that the providence core of the Twin Dragon Mount was dragon-shaped, the name “Dragon City” also referred to the poem “If the Flying General of the Dragon City were still there in command, no hostile steeds would have dared to invade our land”, which talked about a constant war against alien races.

Speaking of Li Guang, the Flying General...

...

“What? Hua Rong ‘the Little Li Guang’ has already shown up in another settlement?”

In the Yang City’s Confederate Office.

Ji Ye was surprised by the news and stared at Director Zhou, who was sitting there with his hot water bottle.

“Yes, and it’s not just Hua Rong. Song Jiang, Li Kui, and Wu Yong have all appeared.”

Steam rose from the water bottle Director Zhou was holding.

Instead of goji berries, a Yang Energy Pill was soaked in it.

It was a product made by the joint effort of the Su Group and the Twin Dragon Island and was going to be launched soon. The name of the product was quite self-explanatory in terms of its effect.

It could refresh the mind, prolong life, and restore a certain type of function of the human body!

Some gifts were simply impossible to turn down, such as rejuvenating skincare products for middle-aged women and “invigorating” pills for middle-aged men.

Because of that, Director Zhou had paid much attention to the affairs of the Twin Dragon Island.

Earlier, Ji Ye had asked him to keep an eye on the whereabouts of important Water Margin heroes.

Frowning, Ji Ye asked, “Did a settlement summon Song Jiang, and that Hua Rong, Li Kui, and Wu Yong followed him?”

He thought that way because Hua Rong, Li Kui, and Wu Yong were all very loyal to Song Jiang.

In the last chapter of the Water Margin, Song Jiang realized that he was going to die after he drank the poisonous wine sent by Cai Jing and Gao Qiu.

So he invited Li Kui over, let him drink some wine, and told him about what had happened.

Infuriated, Li Kui wanted to rise in rebellion again, but Song Jiang shook his head and said, “In my life, I only advocate the word ‘loyalty’ and refuse to deceive myself. I’d rather be betrayed by the imperial court than the other way around.”

Crying, he told Li Kui that he was worried that Li Kui would revolt after his death, which would ruin the reputation of Liangshan, which was known to enforce justice on behalf of Heaven.

Hence, he informed Li Kui that the wine he drank was poisonous and that he would die after he left.

Hearing this, Li Kui didn’t get angry. Rather, he burst into tears, saying that “I’ve served you, my brother, when you’re alive, and I’ll still serve you after my death”. When he really died a few days later, he told his servants to bury him next to Song Jiang’s tomb.

As for Hua Rong and Wu Yong, after taking office, they were also “often unhappy in their hearts from missing their brother”.

One day, they both felt uneasy and remained restless in their sleep. They then dreamed of Li Kui and Song Jiang, who told them about their death.

After that, both Hua Rong and Song Jiang chose to hang themselves by Song Jiang’s tomb.

That was beyond any kind of normal friendship.

Theoretically, once Song Jiang arrived at a settlement, Wu Yong, Hua Rong, and Li Kui were bound to follow. It wouldn’t be a surprise if they chose to answer the summons of lower levels like Mi Zhu did.

To be frank, Ji Ye didn’t really like Song Jiang.

Apart from his somewhat hypocritical personality, Ji Ye was also a little alarmed by the man.

Because in the novel, many men of Liangshan had been tricked by him in the name of his righteous cause.

But after they became a member of Liangshan, they pledged loyalty to Song Jiang without hesitation and addressed him as their “Big Brother”. When they were separated from him, they even sulked when they were “reminded of Brother Song Jiang’s affection”.

According to the novel, it was because “their stars matched”.

As the Leader Star, the top one of the 108 stars, Song Jiang was even more superior to Lu Junyi, the Strength Star.

Although many people despised Song Jiang’s character, in terms of his fame, he was as well-known as any Water Margin heroes, if not better.

Since Gongsun Sheng, the Leisure Star and the 4th of the 108 stars, could borrow strength from stars in battles, one couldn’t exclude the possibility that Song Jiang could do the same, and it was very likely that it would correspond to his own Leader Star.

Just like Xu Xue back in the days, the “Protector of Righteousness” might have a talent ability that could mesmerize the rest of the stars!
