Game Lord's Cultivation System
203 Like a Boss
Zhao Tong and Bing Tong in the room were stunned by the sudden deal from Jiang Ming.
20 percent shares and an exclusive patronage membership?
What was he talking about when the matter was concerning his daughter? Zhao Tong was infuriated by Jiang Ming, thinking that he was toying with him once again.
"Damn brat!" Zhao Tong shouted at the top of his lungs and slammed his hand at the table. "What kind of nonsense are you spouting now after going behind my back to steal my daughter's precious flower?"
It wasn't just Zhao Tong being infuriated, but even Bing Tong couldn't help but hold a tiny cold gaze at him. Clearly, she was displeased that Jiang Ming was trying to offer some benefits in exchange for her. She wasn't an item for sale nor was she some kind of trophy.
Meanwhile, Jiang Ming was a bit embarrassed because he failed to reword himself properly, causing such a misunderstanding to take place.
"Um… I have never nor would I ever dare to proclaim Bing Tong as some item. What I just said was something out of my goodwill and has nothing to do with me making love with Bing Tong." He bluntly said it aloud, not bothering to hide about their deed.
They were already caught red-handed, so any excuses are just pointless and cowardly actions. He wasn't going to cower in fear for his so-called father-in-law now. "Hmph, what does your 20 percent shares mean to me?" Zhao Tong snorted coldly. He would be a fool if he would actually be happy about Jiang Ming's bribery to curry favor.
He was an emperor and wealth is the only thing he does not lack.
"Old man, I'm not merely talking about wealth." Jiang Ming laughed as he wrapped his hand around Bing Tong's waist, not caring at the fierce glint at Zhao Tong.
"What I'm talking about is your control over the clans and solidifying your power as the royal family again."
Zhao Tong raised an eyebrow. Suppressing his anger for the audacity of Jiang Ming's hand touching his precious daughter, he took a deep breath,
"Stop beating around the bush and speak." He demanded. Normally, he would have already figured out what Jiang Ming meant exactly, but his mind is currently in turmoil.
His daughter was being touched by a bastard. How could he remain calm when he could see his daughter didn't resist his evil touch.
Meanwhile, Jiang Ming ignored the fiery gaze from Zhao Tong as he whispered sweetly to Bing Tong. "Do you want to do the explaining, Babe Bing Tong? I'm sure you'll know what I mean by now and how great the 20 percent shares are."
Bing Tong nodded her head. Her face was flushed in a bit of redness due to Jiang Ming rubbing her buttock secretly. It was like a surge of new feelings for her when she thought about being touched by Jiang Ming in front of her father.
She quickly shook her head to stop herself from thinking any further.
She turned around and stared at her father, "Father, you should have heard of Alchemist Ren successfully refining a breakthrough pill for Spiritual Lord Realm cultivator, right? You might not know this, but Alchemist Ren is extremely submissive to Jiang Ming, meaning that as long as Jiang Ming says who gets the pill, then that person would definitely get it."
If Zhao Tong still remained ignorant despite the clear explanation from Bing Tong, then he might as well abdicate his throne. His initial scorn for Jiang Ming in giving him a mere 20 percent shares of a tiny store in his eyes had completely changed.
He had never known about the close relationship between Alchemist Ren and Jiang Ming. He had always thought it was just a mere partnership and Alchemist Ren was just being generous to support Jiang Ming.
Who would have thought the fact was actually the opposite. It was Alchemist Ren trying to curry favor from Jiang Ming and not the other way around.
His expression turned solemn as he knew how valuable the breakthrough pill that Alchemist Ren refined was in the market and its influence.
"Was this the reason why you offered me exclusive patronage membership? It was so I can have partial authority over the distribution of the breakthrough pill?" Zhao Tong asked in a serious tone.
Jiang Ming nodded his head.
"I've heard from Bing Tong about the 6 powerful clans' action, and you should be in a predicament at the moment, right? Otherwise, you wouldn't have personally come here yourself to check on Bing Tong. After all, you are afraid of her being suddenly kidnapped or harmed by the 6 powerful clans as a means to deal with you." Jiang Ming said, exposing his real intention for barging into the room.
Zhao Tong coughed slightly to avoid the embarrassment of being exposed.
However, Jiang Ming wasn't going to let him off the hook easily.
He proceeded to explain his other motive in front of him, "Not to mention, you should have received news about the breakthrough pill that would be sold in the Moon Bazaar. Hence, you want to come here and use your influence and power to take control of the distribution. That way, you can prevent the 6 powerful clans from getting their hand at the new breakthrough pill to increase their power."
Jiang Ming had basically given him zero face to his future father-in-law.
Bing Tong on the side was sweating nervously as she cursed Jiang Ming silently. 'Why are you exposing his intention, Jiang Ming? Do you want to make things difficult for me?'
Of course, Jiang Ming didn't wish to create a rift in their delicate relationship. Though that doesn't mean he won't stop acting like a boss.
His intention was to tell Zhao Tong that even if he had fucked her daughter, that does not mean he can order him to do anything.
The only one that could order him to do things would be his aunt, Yang Liqin.
The atmosphere quickly turned silent as Zhao Tong pondered over the offer Jiang Ming gave out.
'This damn brat is clearly robbing me when the house is on fire.' Zhao Tong cursed silently. The royal family is being targeted and it was only a matter of time before a rebellion started.
At this moment, the breakthrough pill would be an immense help for his situation since he could use it to increase his army power. Thus, Jaing Ming's offer was like a juicy tender piece of meat for him. However, the exchange would be his beloved daughter.
His face twitched in anger as he couldn't believe there would be a day that he needed to decide between his daughter and the royal family.
"Old man, you can stop twitching your face. You look like someone who needed to take a dump in the toilet." Jiang Ming suddenly laughed as he stood up.
"You must be thinking that you are selling your daughter to stabilize the Northern Continent. However, that's where you are wrong, old man. Bing Tong and I are in love from the start, so there are no such things as selling, to begin with."
After saying that, he walked toward his desk and began writing on a piece of paper. It was a contract that he would be handing 20 percent of shares to Zhao Tong and have partial authority for the distribution of the breakthrough pill.
Meanwhile, Bing Tong showed a grateful expression at Jiang Ming since his words were meant to ease the difficulty of Zhao Tong.
She stood up and sat next to Zhao Tong, placing her hand on his.
"Father, you have been struggling and having difficulty sleeping for the past few days already because of the movement of the 6 powerful clans. Now that Jiang Ming has returned, you should just relax and accept his offer. It's a win-win situation for us." She started coaxing him into agreeing.
Everyone in the room was smart enough to know that Zhao Tong had already agreed to the offer. It's just that he still needed to retain his pride and dignity as the emperor.
Hence, Jiang Ming and Bing Tong had to sugarcoat things into making it seem like Zhao Tong only accepted the offer reluctantly.
Although it was tedious and annoying work, that was basically how emperors usually act. They care about their face and reputation more than anything even if they want to deny it.
"Hmph, since this damn brat is that eager to give me money for free, then so be it." Zhao Tong snorted coldly and crossed his arm.
"I knew father is the best and the most understanding person," Bing Tong exclaimed happily and wrapped her arms around his.
Meanwhile, Jiang Ming twitched his lips as he wished to shred the contract that he was currently writing.
'Motherfucking bitch, I already gave you enough face on behalf of Bing Tong and you still want to act tough?' Jiang Ming cursed him silently.
