Chapter 1874 - Taking Advantage

“Monkey take a seat. Today’s meeting is starting now,” Square Root 3 said, cordially inviting Monkey to sit down, before declaring that this regular top level meeting of Ruling Sword was beginning.

“I suppose everyone knows that our Stranglethorn Stronghold was lost on purpose,” Square Root 3 began, “So everyone please take note that for the sake of work, you can only quietly leak this info when you need to.”

Since the official punishment could only be given when the battle was taking place, there was no fear of them chasing this up after the fact.

Then, he looked back on the struggles of establishment of Ruling Sword. The club had only been around for two years, and everyone had experienced some of this process. Naturally, when talking about the past, it stirred up emotions.

After that, they looked ahead to the future, which was more than just looking forward to good things.

Finally, they moved onto the current situation.

Square Root 3 complained about being poor and needing money in all areas. They had to get equipment for competitors, and the level 70s were going to be released soon…

Anyway, the club was about to be finished. Everyone’s smooth journey was about to end.

He even had Lu Li list everything out. He had never taken any bonuses, with all of it being left for the club’s lifeline. All rare tools and equipment had never been taken for himself, but given to everyone.

Then, there were those Fel Reavers which crushed the other clubs in the Stronghold battles. They were almost completely handled by Lu Li.

“I’ve heard that everyone’s become rich off the Stronghold battle. Have a look and see if the money’s just stuck on your card, not being used. Put it into the fantastic cause of expanding and developing the guild.”

After speaking for hours, this little secret had finally been revealed.

Without waiting for anyone to speak, Lu Li added, “Of course we’re not just taking money from you. This time, we’ll be using the form of shares. Some will be virtual shares, from which you’ll just earn a bonus. Some will be real shares, which you can buy and sell…”

“I’ll do it. How much do you need to fill the gap? I can do all of it.”

Her Tears was hooked straight away.

Although he was part of the top level of Ruling Sword, he had entered late. He wasn’t even a virtual shareholder, let alone a real shareholder.

“Um.”

Lu Li looked at Her Tears speechlessly. He was originally worried that everyone would be silent, and was thinking about a way to put this off. He never thought that someone would be so active like this, but he still shook his head and said, “If we needed financing, we would have done it ages ago.”

“I know, it’s all my own money. I’ve got complete authority over it,” Her Tears replied eagerly.

“Tears, calm down. The amount that anyone can buy is set. Bread is going to share it with everyone,” Square Root 3 interjected.

White Bread took out sets of documents, distributing them based on the different numbers.

Her Tears opened it up and had a look. He was immediately disappointed. It was very different from what he expected, but he also understood that this was part of Lu Li’s insistence. Ruling Sword wanted to have small shareholders.

However, it was always better to have something than nothing, let alone the fact that there were some real shares in there.

“I need my money for a wife.”

Azure Sea Breeze was really in a knot. He couldn’t give up his money, but no matter how stupid he was, he knew the worth of making an investment. The asking price of shares from outside shareholders had skyrocketed ages ago. It was a shame that Lu Li just didn’t want to open the guild up.

“How do you need money for a wife? You’re not buying one. Is it even love if you’re buying it?” Lu Li questioned, expressing his disdain.

“Shut up you, living off your girl,” Azure Sea Breeze shot back.

“If you go out and say how many of Ruling Sword’s shares you have, heaps of girls will be lining up for you to pick,” Square Root 3 chimed in.

“With him being so stupid, it’s still better to find someone blind.”

A sudden piercingly accurate word came from Wandering, who was lounging weakly in his seat.

“You shut up too. Do you have money to put in, you poor bugger?” Azure Sea Breeze continued in his

anger.

“Ha, needing money for just tiny bit in shares? I’ll get two ambassadors and get them to send some funds,” Wandering said indifferently. Only idiots had to think about how to earn money.

“My looks are enough for people to come after me. Hmph, I have outstanding looks. With good looks you can do whatever you want,” Azure Sea Breeze said, then hit the table indignantly and declared, “I’ll buy all of them.”

“I’m following my sis,” Lonesome Flower said with a turn of his face.

“I don’t quite have enough money…”

March Rain was in a bit of a difficult situation. She had a lot of money with her brother together, but they bought a new house together, so they didn’t have much money on hand. Moreover, her brother had taken away a fair bit of money a few days earlier for something she didn’t know about.

“Sis, I’ve got money.”

Lonesome Flower whizzed over to March Rain’s side, opening up his account and showing her his massive sum of newly obtained money.

“Bro, how did you get so much money?” March Rain was really surprised.

This sudden, massive amount was more than brother and sister earned in the past year.

“Hehe, actually bro’s pretty amazing too,” Lonesome Flower laughed as he puffed out his chest. Instantly refreshed, the gloom he had kept in his heart for so long had immediately disappeared.

As an older brother, if he earned less than his little sister, then that would simply be the end of the world.

“Ah, big bro is awesome. We’ll both buy it,” March Rain said as she looked at her brother with the greatest admiration.

Oh, the glory from past days had come upon him again. Lonesome Flower solemnly drew back the corners of his mouth.

“I’m buying too, I’ve got so much money anyway. If I take out half, it’ll be enough for me,” Sakura Memories said straightforwardly as she waved her hand big and wide.

Fat Monkey and Azure Sea Breeze watched her helplessly with a bit of envy. They thought they had already contributed a lot, but they were still a long way off when compared with Sakura Memories. Very few girls were this bold.

Sakura Memories had actually stolen her parents’ money to go gamble with. Fortunately, it was returned without harm, and even came with a massive return.

“Ahem, actually, I’m relatively knowledgeable when it comes to investing. It’s not a good idea to invest in a manga anime novel website. This industry has pretty much already reached its end.”

Square Root 3 had more or less heard about heard about what Sakura Memories was planning to do.

“I’ve never thought about earning money. This is just my personal hobby,” Sakura Memories said.

“Then you can buy a mature website. There are a few going through financial difficulties that you can buy for a low price.”

Square Root 3 shrugged, not trying to dissuade her anymore.

Sakura Memories’ eye’s sparkled, and gratuitously said, “Yeah, thanks, three bro. When it’s all done, we’ll still be asking you to help us. I’ll give you an extra role in the novels, I don’t think I could make you the female protagonist…”

In an instant, Square Root 3’s face turned dark.

Everyone else also rushed to pay their own parts. This included Crippled Black Ant, Big Dog Li and others who had entered the club quite recently. No matter where they went, those with power sparkled.

“Monkey how about you?” Lu Li asked. This guy hadn’t opened his mouth at all.

“Ahem, you still have the face to ask me? You just took away my chance to go up first, then you said you were going to treat me to a meal, which you finally did last night, but you just pointed to those cheap snack places and had me eat there…”

“Man, Monkey, I was joking then. Didn’t I offer you to have fried fish in the end?”

“Dammit, I paid for that!” Monkey exploded in indignant cursing.

“Oh yeah, you paid. I saw Snowy, then I went along with her to walk around. Next time I’ll definitely treat you,” Lu Li recalled sheepishly, then quickly added, “This is a good chance though. Don’t miss this opportunity by being headstrong.”

“I’ll pay what I can. The rest, you can help me fill in.”

“I’m as poor as a dog,” Lu Li said as he spread out his hands.

“Don’t be an insulting dog, Monkey. I’ll help with however much you’re lacking,” Azure Sea Breeze offered very generously.

“You just owe me the best stuff.”
