The events of this world were miraculous and you would not be able to understand it even if you racked your brains.
Just as Hong Dali’s health attribute was bottoming out, at the critical moment, someone helped him avert the dangerous situation he was in!
We have to start explaining from the beginning.
While Hong Dali was groggily turning into a vegetable, at the same time, at the Galaxy Alliance Center.
Inside an exclusive club in Shenluo City, all the Honorary Aristocrats who had previously sold their assets to Hong Dali had gathered to discuss something.
Someone: “Eh, how much money have you gotten back after selling your business to Hong Dali?”
Another man: “I got my first payment, and frankly, it’s not a lot. It can’t be helped. So many of us went to him to sell our properties and businesses, no one would be able to cough up such a large sum at such short notice, right? That’s why almost all our payments are in installments. I sold my assets for 21 million, and the first payment I received was just slightly over 1 million. It’s barely enough for anything!”
The third man nodded fiercely. “Yes. My amount is larger at 33 million. In the end, the first payment was less than three million. The advancement assessment will be here soon. Such a small amount of money is not enough to tide me through.”
At this time, the first man nodded. His expression was troubled. “Me too. I should get 28 million in total, and I have gotten only 2 million so far. Although the unprofitable business has been sold and my final score has been pushed up by a little, but if all the money can be taken back in one lump sum, it will be enough for me to push my score up even more. I heard that he has gone to kill Zergs with the Lord and no one knows when he will be back. Eh, if we can get more back, won’t that be good?”
The third man stroked his chin and suddenly said, “Why don’t we do this, let’s act first. While he’s not around, we can go to the Lord’s Office and look for an accountant to give us our money? Since we have the agreement, we can take it as an advance. At the very most, we can give him a discount when he comes back. That’s better than waiting for him to pay us.”
The third man nodded. “Yes, yes, yes. Let’s take the money now rather than after the advancement assessment. If we wait for the advancement assessment to be over, it’ll be too late. Even if the amount we get is more than what is stated in the agreement, it’s not much use, right?”
The first man agreed. “Makes sense! Let’s go now?”
“Let’s go, let’s go!”
…
Galaxy Aristocrat, the Lord’s Office where Yin Lieyang was.
Several Honorary Aristocrats sneaked into the Lord’s Mansion and went straight to the accountant’s office. They were as sneaky as thieves, the only difference was that they were not masked… To be honest, they were taking a huge risk. They almost got thrown out by the guards trying to get in earlier. Fortunately, the guards had pretty good memories and some remembered them. Otherwise, they would have made fools of themselves…
“Mr. Accountant,” an Honorary Aristocrat said respectfully, “many of our businesses have been sold to Hong Dali, an Honorary Aristocrat. We want to withdraw some funds in advance. I wonder if Mr. Accountant can help?”
Hearing that, the accountant hesitated. “Oh? You have already signed your agreements? There is nothing I can do. After all, we are working for the Lord and have to follow the rules. It’s not a joking matter if we break the rules.”
“No, no, no.” The Honorary Aristocrat looked left and right carefully, like a thief. “What we want should be considered as just an advance. We can suffer a little loss if we can get an advance of four months… no, no, no, three months! Just three months! Mr. Accountant, you can approve just two and a half months of funds for us. You can use the rest to buy yourself some supplements.”
“Hmm, just an advance of three months?” The accountant touched his chin. “I might be able to do it. However, if you are going to get an advance on the funds, you should at least give Mr. Dali some compensation, right? He may be a prodigal, but he is Lord Tianzong’s best friend. If I cheat him of his money secretly, I will be in big trouble.”
Although he said this, his tone had loosened by a lot. The Honorary Aristocrat saw him wavering and quickly stated his offer. “How about this! We will waive the installment for one month! We will take just eleven months’ worth of installments and give him the twelfth month’s payment as a token of friendship? Will that do?”
What he meant was very easy to understand.
For example, if each monthly payment was 3 million, twelve months’ worth of payments would be 36 million. His offer meant that Hong Dali only had to pay 33 million, saving 3 million.
“Yes, that can be considered.” The accountant thought about it. All in all, that was an advantageous deal for all three sides. Hong Dali spent significantly less, he got some benefits from it, and the Honorary Aristocrats in front of him would be satisfied. It was worth it.
“In that case, let me take a look.” The accountant nodded. “Young Master Dali is fighting against the Zergs, so his account is currently held by the Galaxy Bank. I must first check to see if there are any funds in the account. If there are, it’s simple, if not, it will be more troublesome and you will need to go through the loan formalities. If that’s the case, we will not be able to work within the current conditions. After all, loans are very troublesome.”
When the Honorary Aristocrats or anyone else left to fight against the Zergs, their bank accounts would all be temporarily managed by the Galaxy Bank. After all, they were putting their lives on the line. In this way, they could avoid having their accounts disappear completely if they met with any accidents.
As the Head Accountant at the Galaxy Aristocrat Lord’s Mansion, he could mobilize people’s funds to deal with matters they had left unsettled.
For example, if someone had an unpaid debt, the Galaxy Aristocrat accountant could help him deal with the repayment.
Of course, the maximum holding period was one year. If there was no news about the person who had left to fight the Zergs after one year, the account would be frozen and their relatives would be allowed to claim the funds within.
“Yes, yes, yes. That we know.” Although that was what the Honorary Aristocrat said, he had no idea what would happen. If there was no money in Hong Dali’s account, their plan would fall through.
The accountant turned on his communicator.
Accountant: “Sir, my name is Matt, an accountant at the Mansion of Galaxy Aristocrat, Lord Yin Lieyang. Please check the balance in this account: Hong 123456-87654321-88888888. Thank you.”
The staff there quickly replied, “Dear Mr. Matt, hello. The balance in the account you have inquired about is 85,621,000 Galaxy Dollars.”
How… how much?! More than 85 million!
Everyone was dumbfounded!
Hong Dali was such a prodigal but he still had a balance of more than 85 million?! What exactly did he do? Did he rob the Galaxy Stellar Bank? You had to understand that this was what was left after his indiscriminate squandering! If that was the case, that meant…
In fact, this was not that much. If Hong Dali had not spent 70 million hiring a transport ship for Earth, it would be a nine-digit number…
Matt, the accountant, said, “God, he really is not ordinarily rich. That’s a lot!”
This was simply beyond their expectations!
When they decided to come, these Honorary Aristocrats were afraid that they were asking for too much and Hong Dali would not have enough in his account.
Now it seemed that they had been too polite. They should have asked for an advance of half a year!
“Okay, thank you.” Matt turned off the communicator. Hong Dali had so much money. This was simply awesome. He would be able to close this deal and make more than a million with none the wiser about it.
The most important thing was that all parties were willing and no one got hurt!
Soon, they had completed the formalities. The accountant Matt laughed and said, “Well, if you have any need in the future, please feel free to come to me.”
“No problem, hahaha!”
When they left Lord’s Mansion, the Honorary Aristocrats could not stop smiling—
“Hong Dali is really rich, haha. We have managed to advance so much, and it’s all in cash! If this money is used for our businesses, our performance will definitely improve by a few percentage points! At least the results will look much better!”
“Yes, yes. All thanks to the prodigal Hong Dali. If it weren’t for him, we will face a lot of pressure from the people below!”
“That’s right! Aiya, he is really a blessing to us!”
…
In the Golden Emperor Beetle’s beam.
“Hahahahaha! I wonder who is so great, he squandered 22 million in one go. He must be my lucky star!” Hong Dali excitedly danced in the rays. “Wahahahahaha! I, the number one prodigal in the universe, am alive again! Hahaha!”
Speaking of which, it was a really dangerous situation.
Hong Dali’s health had fallen below ten points, and he almost became a vegetable.
His breath was shallow, more air was getting expelled then taken in, and he was barely conscious.
At this moment of life and death, a “ding” sounded in the System. Then, it said the first sentence: “The host’s current points from squandering that can be converted into attribute points: 224 points.”
Then, the System very thoughtfully directly added the points to his Health…
And so, Hong Dali was instantly alive and active again.
Why else would they say that life was amazing—thank you, heavens, thank you, earth. Thank you, all those who helped me squander!
“Dali, are you feeling better?” Tang Muxin looked at Hong Dali suspended in mid-air and exclaimed in surprise, “You have recovered?”
“Wahahahaha! Xinxin, I love you!” He had managed to live through the danger this time. Now that the danger was no more, Hong Dali shouted loudly. “I love you to death! I love everyone! Hahahahaha! I am alive again!”
“You bastard.” Tang Muxin wiped tears from the corner of her eyes excitedly, and her cute little nose sniffled. “Things are always such a mess, but that’s okay. This is the Hong Dali I know, hehe.”
