OFR – Chapter 120 The meeting between the two giants.

After closing the chat page with Zhang Yuyan, Mu Bai sat on the sofa and quietly watched a TV drama for a while.

While watching TV, a few lines of small text appeared before his eyes, reminding him that the random task of the Violent God Task had been completed.

However, since it had exceeded the 24-hour time limit, the shop’s exchange system was not fully unlocked.

It had only unlocked 100 exchanges.

After exceeding the exchange limit, the system would close.

Mu Bai, who had forgotten about the time limit of the random task, felt a little regretful.

But he didn’t regret it for long because there’s no such thing as a “regret pill” in this world.

At this point, he had an idea and entered the magical space. He then arrived at the location of the magical store and checked the exchange system’s details.

“Ding! The exchange system only accepts network silver coins. You can use network silver coins to exchange all kinds of plants and animals produced in the magical space. The higher the grade of plants and animals, the higher the magical space level required to unlock them. Do you want to check the currently available exchangeable plants and animals?”

“Confirm.”

Mu Bai clicked confirm without hesitation.

Once clicked, a whole list of exchangeable items appeared before him.

【Top Cactus】: Requires 1 network silver coin to exchange, available at magical space level 1.

【Top Spider Plant】: Requires 2 network silver coins to exchange, available at magical space level 1.

【Super Top Butterfly Orchid】: Requires 20 network silver coins to exchange, available at magical space level 1.

【Top Golden Dragon Fish】: Requires 200 network silver coins to exchange, available at magical space level 2.

…

【Red Gold Queen】: Requires 1000 network silver coins to exchange, available at magical space level 3.

【Pink Gold Queen】: Requires 1200 network silver coins to exchange, available at magical space level 3.

【100 Square Meters of Self-owned Land for Saffron】: Requires 1500 network silver coins to exchange, available at magical space level 3.

Mu Bai looked at the list of exchangeable items, especially the Top Cactus and Spider Plant, and couldn’t help but laugh quietly.

He had been a bit extravagant, using such an extraordinary magical space to plant something as common as a cactus and spider plant.

But after the brief laugh, Mu Bai noticed another grey list of non-exchangeable items.

This list was shorter, but it contained the rarest plants and animals in the magical space.

【Platinum Dragon Fish】: Requires 2200 network silver coins to exchange, available at magical space level 4.

【Purple Gold Peony】: Requires 2500 network silver coins…

…

【Super Rare Ghost Orchid】: Requires 6500 network silver coins to exchange, available at magical space level 5.

Mu Bai realized that the grey list contained the plants and animals that had reached an A-rank in the system’s assessment of cultivation levels.

The Ghost Orchid, for instance, had reached the A++ rank, which meant it required magical space level 5 to exchange.

“Well, not bad. But let me exchange 10 saffrons first,” Mu Bai nodded, quite satisfied with the exchange system.

This was another fast way to make money for him.

It could be said that this exchange system had taken the money-making ability of the magical space to a terrifying level!

Right now, the space’s ability to generate money could easily yield no less than a billion every month.

It was terrifying.

Indeed, even the top billionaires on the current domestic Forbes list made only around two to three billion in net profits each month.

But after a brief reflection, Mu Bai returned to reality and started exchanging saffron.

The 100-square-meter saffron plot produced roughly 15,000 grams of Level 1 saffron, 5,000 grams of top-level saffron, and 500 grams of rare saffron.

There were no saffron bulbs in the exchange list. It seemed that the exchange system did not include seeds.

“Hmm, I’ll exchange for ten. Tomorrow, I’ll sell the saffron and be more confident,” Mu Bai nodded and then focused on returning to the living room.

Upon returning, he glanced at the time in the top right corner of the TV and saw that it was already past 10 PM.

He yawned, reached for the remote, turned off the TV and the lights in the living room, and headed to bed to sleep.

In the quiet of the night, Mu Bai quickly fell into a deep sleep.

However, after he fell asleep, the nightlife in Shanghai, the Magic City, had only just begun.

At that moment, in a luxurious hotel’s top-tier private room, two men in their thirties sat, looking at their phones while talking with slightly furrowed brows.

One of them was none other than Qian, the “Male God” of the Fishball Alliance.

“Qian, do you think this ‘Cold’ guy is the one the CEO of Douyu has sent to wipe us out? Is he a pawn of Douyu?”

At this time, the man sitting next to Qian, in a soft leather chair, spoke in a slightly hoarse voice. His appearance was somewhat simple, with a trimmed beard that added a mature charm to his look.

His real name might not be well-known, but if his Douyu ID were mentioned, everyone in the live-streaming industry would recognize him.

He was none other than the decision-maker of the Hongmen team – Guan, a super-rich individual who had once gone head-to-head with Qian, and neither of them had gained the upper hand.

“Hmm, yes. You saw yesterday’s situation. I used all my resources in the Fishball Alliance and still couldn’t find much on this ‘Cold’ guy, so you should be able to tell how strong he is. As for whether he’s a pawn, he’s not. His discount rebate is the same as ours, 30% off, which is the maximum Douyu can offer,” Qian said, calmly sipping his precious tea.

After drinking a few sips, he continued: “I checked his background yesterday, and unfortunately, I couldn’t find anything. But one thing’s for sure: he is definitely not from Douyu, because Douyu can’t hide a person’s information to such an extent. Even Douyu’s vice presidents couldn’t find anything!”

In any large organization, there are inevitably high-ranking insiders.

Hongmen had its own, so Guan wasn’t surprised.

He chuckled lightly. “Well, this is interesting. A person who is also getting a 30% discount and acting alone. I wonder how he managed to take on us!”

At that moment, a hint of domineeringness appeared on Guan’s usually simple face, which was not quite in line with his typical demeanor.

“Don’t be arrogant. The reason I came to talk to you today is actually to discuss how we can counterbalance this ‘Cold’ guy. Right now, he’s alone, which isn’t too scary. What’s scary is his team is growing at lightning speed, so we need to suppress him.”

Qian said with a calm demeanor, his face mysterious and unreadable.

“How do we suppress him?” Guan asked.

“You recently signed a top-tier professional team, right? In the live-streaming industry, what determines the strength of a team? It’s the rich patrons, the streamers, and real fans. We can’t test the depth of ‘Cold’s’ patrons, but his streamers are less mysterious. We can target the mobile team he signed for King of Glory and hit them first. Let the other teams know that if they ally with ‘Cold,’ we might not be able to outmoney them, but we can crush them with streamers. Losing once doesn’t cost much, so we just need to keep challenging them until they keep losing!”

Guan listened to the suggestion and smiled. “I have to admit, you’re ruthless.”

But after laughing for a moment, he suddenly raised his head and looked directly at Qian. “The Fishball Alliance is done. Are you upset?”

He had hoped to detect some change in Qian’s expression, but failed.

Qian remained calm.

He said softly, “I’m upset, but it’s within my tolerance range.”

“Hmm, as long as we didn’t lose everything… But if I send people to suppress ‘Cold,’ you should send something in return, right?”

Since Guan couldn’t get any information from Qian, he returned to his original topic.

“What do you want?”

“15 million in financial support, plus a chance for a streamer to enter the entertainment industry.”

“Deal.”

Qian thought for a moment and nodded.

In just a few words, the two super-rich men on Douyu had reached an agreement.
