# Chapter 1217: Am I This Rich Now?

On the way back to Jinju Building, Jiangnan was holding a little girl in each hand!

(∗❛ั◡❛ั)۶٩(๐⁼̴ꇴ⁼̴๐)۶٩(ᵒ̌◡ᵒ̌#)

Mila and Lan both had lollipops in their mouths!

Lan's eyes were wide open. This was way too sweet! She'd never had anything like this before!

She couldn't bear to chew it, instead moving it back and forth between her cheeks.

Jiangnan had a completely melted expression, holding one in each hand?

Behind them followed two combat maids?

This was basically the peak of life, okay?

The Undercurrent was pretty much finished after this wave, but Jiangnan wouldn't give them a chance to rise from the ashes!

The Dandelion people would naturally clean up their remaining strongholds in the Fish Country.

Jiangnan suddenly remembered something!

"By the way, Lan? Where did you get that space-type spiritual technique?"

When he'd given Lan spirit beads before, he'd never given her any space-type spirit beads. Back then, Jiangnan hadn't even secured his own Platinum-level technique yet!

Could it be like Mila? An awakened gifted spiritual technique?

Lan scratched her head: ୧(#•̌~•̑) "Is Brother Jiangnan talking about the Space Cube? It's the bead from my necklace. I've worn it since I was little!"

"When I was hungriest, I thought about pawning it for money several times, but I figured it might be something my parents left me, so I never sold it..."

"Later, when I reached Black Iron, I realized it was a spirit bead, so I absorbed it, and then I got this technique!"

"I used it back when I was... stealing... stealing beans!"

Saying this, Lan's little face turned red. She was a bit embarrassed!

(◔﹏◔ิ#)

As she spoke, her little hand reached out, the Space Cube activated, completely hidden within space.

The next moment, the phone in Jiangnan's pocket was teleported out, landing right in Lan's hand!

Then she stuffed it back into Jiangnan's pocket.

Jiangnan was stunned. This technique was so perverted!

A third-order cube with 27 space modules that could control positions at will?

Not only could it transfer attacks and change enemy positions, but it could even perform small-scale displacement. Extremely flexible!

Defensively, it might not be as good as Space Wormhole, but it made up for it in comprehensiveness and had tons of uses!

Looking at it this way, the level of this spirit bead definitely couldn't be low!

A necklace she'd had since childhood? Something Lan's never-met parents left her?

Being able to get such a rare space-type spirit bead, they probably weren't ordinary people!

Speaking of which, other people's parents left them spirit bead necklaces and stuff, but what did his leave him?

Starting with just a diaper, equipment all by fighting?

"You should keep it safe. Maybe you'll find your parents someday!"

Lan shook her head vigorously, her eyes reddening as she hugged Jiangnan's arm tightly!

˚‧º·(˚˃~˂) "No! I don't want to find them! They didn't want me, so why should I look for them? I have Big Brother, that's enough!"

Jiangnan was startled, then a look of tenderness appeared in his eyes as he comforted her softly!

(。ớ◡ờ)ھ "If they didn't want you, I do. From now on, you have me!"

Lan nodded repeatedly, sniffling and wiping her tears.

Jiangnan grinned: "Speaking of which, you're Silver Nine now, and you still don't have a spiritual technique lined up, right?"

"I'll set one up for you later. Soon you'll be as strong as me!"

A look of anticipation appeared in Lan's big eyes as she nodded along!

Yao Hong swallowed her saliva. That's probably unlikely, right?

Do you even know how strong you are?

Back at Jinju Building, Yuna and Emma forcefully dragged Lan away!

They needed to give her a bath. After all, the entire Lan had practically turned into a little black ghost. She didn't look anything like a little girl, okay?

Jiangnan was thinking about going to cultivate when Yao Hong tugged at his sleeve!

Her face full of brilliant smiles!

(ʃƪ⌒.̮⌒) "Boss! Want to discuss something?"

As she spoke, she rubbed her little hands together!

Jiangnan's eyes were full of terror!

੧੧(ʘ̆﹏ʘ̥̆‖)՞ "No money! I'm broke! Don't ask me!"

Whenever Yao Hong rubbed her hands together, nothing good ever came of it. She was probably going to fleece him again!

He was about to escape when Yao Hong stepped forward, caging him against the wall with her arm, and licked her lips!

(˵ಡڡಡ) "I'm just reporting on work. What are you running for?"

As she spoke, her eyes were full of laughter, and she gently breathed a warm breath by Jiangnan's ear!

Jiangnan shuddered violently!

(´-﹏-`๐) "Is this how you report to your boss?"

Yao Hong grinned mischievously: (。ಡωಡ) "So, are you going to listen or not?"

Jiangnan's face reddened: (Ծ▿Ծ⑉) "Go ahead then!"

Yao Hong giggled secretly: "I was actually hoping the boss could spare a little bit of treasure!"

Jiangnan: !!!

"You should just find a new boss!"

Ever since he got the Dandelion, he'd been pouring treasures into it!

After getting cleaned out last time, he'd barely managed to scrape together some savings. Now she wanted funding again?

Yao Hong rubbed her face against Jiangnan's hair!

"Giggle~ I won't change! You're the only one I recognize!"

Jiangnan's face darkened: (̿▀̿ʖ̯▀̿̿)̄ "You have the nerve to say that? I'm basically the mastermind of the Dandelion!"

"What about the dividends? I haven't received a single cent!"

Yao Hong: ???

That's not how you use mastermind!

Yao Hong grinned: "Besides the monthly funds funding domestic charities, I've set aside all your little money!"

As she spoke, her little hand reached into her treasure bag and pulled out a black metal card!

(๑•̀◡•́)۶▓

"This is the Black Gold Vault Card. It's connected to the Dandelion's fund account. The liquid funds inside have already exceeded 10 billion! In dollars~"

"No password. Swipe it however you want. As long as the Dandelion exists, the money here will only increase, never decrease!"

"Spend it all you want! I've had it ready for you for a long time!"

Jiangnan's eyes "clicked" as they turned into little money signs!

(๑¥﹃¥) *slurp*

He took the card in one grab. The card was made of spirit material, with a golden vault printed on it!

Above the vault was the boundless starry sky. In the bottom left corner of the card, the name "Jiangnan" was even engraved!

"Sigh~ Am I this rich now? Hehehe!"

He'd invested 2 billion back then. The returns were this big?

It's just that the card's name was a bit strange. Since he was so rich now, why call it a poor card?

That was really sick!

Yao Hong chuckled: "As the boss of a world-class chamber of commerce organization, this is nothing!"

Even giving the card to Jiangnan, Yao Hong wasn't the least bit worried he'd spend it all!

After long observation, Yao Hong had figured it out!

Jiangnan simply didn't like spending money. The short-sleeved shirt he was wearing now was still the 50-for-two street stall stuff!

Jiang the Hoarder! Only focused on earning little money!

Even holding the world's top-tier Black Gold Vault Card with 10 billion liquid funds at his disposal!

He'd probably never use it once. Just save it!

So giving it to him was the same as not giving it!

But that didn't stop Jiangnan from being happy? If he was happy, then her matter would be settled!

Boss-type creatures needed to be coaxed!

Jiangnan was overjoyed!

(*ᵔᗜᵔ)ᓄ "Yao Hong, you're really great! So capable! Here, have some candy!"

He even handed Yao Hong a White Rabbit candy!

Yao Hong laughed nonstop. She even got candy for this?

"Of course! I am the person the boss chose after all!"

Jiangnan stuffed the Black Gold Card into his pocket, looking proud!

His face radiated an "I have money" expression!

(๐ᵒ̌৺ᵒ̌)✧

"What is it? Spit it out!"

Yao Hong's expression turned serious: "It's about the Haitang Hundred Flowers Grand Competition rating. As an established chamber of commerce, Haitang's annual Hundred Flowers Grand Competition is a feast for the world's top powerhouses!"

"Our Dandelion also has plenty of goods participating in the auction, but this time our total goods value has been rated as Level 2!"

"Haitang wants to take 50% of the profits!"

Jiangnan's eyes bulged: (งʘ̆口ʘ̆)ง "What? Take 50%? Do they have no shame? Are we working for them?"

Yao Hong looked troubled: "Actually, based on preciousness, our goods definitely qualify as Level 1!"

"For Level 1 categories, Haitang only takes 30%, but because we're competitors with Haitang, suppression is inevitable. Plus, our volume is large, just the extra 20% profit is worth who knows how many small goals!"

"I was thinking if the boss had any unused treasures, particularly rare ones, to raise our Dandelion's goods rating to Level 1!"

"That way we could make a lot more money. I'm at my wit's end too. After all, valuable treasures in this world can never be bought with money! They have a price but no market!"

Jiangnan said angrily: (ꐦ°᷄皿°᷅) "Even 30% is too much! They're robbing us!"

"They're trying to take my life!"

Yao Hong nodded repeatedly: "Exactly exactly! So unreasonable! Boss, what do you think..."

Jiangnan's big eyes rolled around, and he broke into a sly grin!

Things with a price but no market, he had tons of those!

"I'll go to Haitang myself tomorrow. I'll handle this for you!"

Yao Hong planted a kiss on Jiangnan's cheek, her eyes full of excitement!

Mwah~ (๑❛ั3❛ั)(•︠ٹ•︡)

"The boss is the best! Oh, remember to go in the morning. In the afternoon, Haitang usually announces some precious auction items to attract attention from all sides!"

"It'll be too late then!"

Jiangnan patted his chest: "I've got this! Don't worry!"

The money the Dandelion earned, that was his money!

After all, he had the poor card now. Why earn less when he could earn more?

Just then, Emma ran out of the room covered in foam, her whole body wet!

ᥬ(☁︎í口ì☁︎)᭄ "Master! Hurry and help! Little Lan won't cooperate. She won't take off her clothes!"

"She doesn't want to bathe! She keeps teleporting everywhere. The two of us can't catch her!"

Jiangnan: ???

What's going on? Doesn't want to bathe?

He quickly followed Emma into the room!

There was Lan, soaked through, her hair all wet!

Like a sloth, she was hanging from the chandelier, looking wary, with a blush on her face!

Seeing Jiangnan enter the room, Lan teleported and hid under the bed, showing only two big eyes peeking out!

(๐ᵒ̴̶̷◠ᵒ̴̶̷̣๐)

Jiangnan snickered: "Why don't you want to bathe? How long has it been? You're all stinky!"

"Do you want to be your big brother's little stinky treasure?"

Lan's face reddened: "I'm dirty. I can wash myself!"

Yuna said seriously: "Washing won't get it clean. At this level, you need to scrub!"
