Lu Li walked on the crowded street.
The corners of his mouth curled up, and a deep smile appeared on his face.
This first transaction was going smoother than he had imagined.
Now, he had bought a year's time.
Lu Li entered a café that was decorated in a more modest style…
"Hello, please give me a cup of iced cappuccino and a lime cheesecake. Thank you.”
Lu Li was wearing a white shirt and black trousers. He had a pair of gold-rimmed glasses on his nose and a folder in his hand. He was tall and slender, and he had a confident smile on his face. He looked at the young lady at the cashier and said gently.
After paying, Lu Li walked to the window and sat down.
He opened the folder and looked at the contract he had just signed.
Time Purchasing Contract
Contract No.: 1,000,001
Party A (seller): Zheng Bowen
[Party B (Acquirer): Lu Li]
[Details: Sell for a year.]
Both parties have reached an agreement as follows: ……
The serial number started from 1,000,001. This was to prevent people from guessing that Lu Li had just entered the industry, or to create a mysterious atmosphere.
He quickly finished reading the one-page contract.
Lu Li closed the folder again.
He began to think about the next step.
"The first step is to acquire the time."
'Then the second part will naturally be selling time…'
'Who should I sell it to? What kind of identity would be easier to open up the situation?'
Lu Li unconsciously rubbed his index finger and thumb.
Time was the most precious thing in the world, so for Lu Li, this was a seller's market.
He had to choose carefully and lay the foundation for the next step.
……
"Sir, your order is cappuccino and lime cheesecake.”
A waitress in a maid's uniform brought the coffee and cake to Lu Li as her gentle voice rang out.
Lu Li gently nodded and watched the waitress leave. His gaze behind his gold-rimmed glasses moved from the waitress's ankle to her ankle.
He slowly retracted his gaze.
Lu Li tore open the Superior White Granules on the tray and poured about two-thirds of them into the Cappuccino.
He picked up the spoon and stirred it gently…
Lu Li took out his phone, opened Qiandu's search app, and typed out a message: " What are the top families and tycoons in Zhong Hai?'。
Search!
Countless search results appeared in front of Lu Li.
" The seven richest districts in Zhong Hai, the richest people all live here!'
" How many tens of millions are there in Zhonghai? Billionaire? Who are they?
" The four rich families of the Republic of China!'
'The list of the richest people in Zhong Hai!'
……
He scanned through the search results and occasionally clicked on the page to take a look.
The people who appeared in the game were all famous figures that Lu Li could only dream of.
It was as if they were sitting on the city's throne in the sky. They were the most wealthy people in the country!
Before this, when he saw these beings, Lu Li was full of longing and envy, but he was also unwilling!
Because he knew that no matter how hard he tried, he would never be able to become a giant like them…
But now, it was different!
Lu Li smiled.
No matter how many messages he sent, he would not stop.
At the right time, a family showed up. Lu Li stopped looking.
Lu Li looked at the family solemnly…
"The Guo family of the Republic of China!"
This family was well-known to every citizen of Zhong Hai and the Republic of China.
The Guo family was a true local aristocratic family with a long history that lasted for hundreds of years.
The relevant information described the family as such:
The Guo Family was an ancient family rooted in Zhong Hai. They had grown and prospered together with Zhong Hai.
Ever since the first generation of the Guo family, they seemed to have sensed the development of the times. They observed the ever-changing changes in the city with a detached vision, participating in and promoting the lives of generations of Zhong Hai people.
Until today.
The Guo family had long stopped deliberately pursuing influence. Instead, they had begun to weaken the figures of their family members in different fields…They seemed to have withdrawn from the stage of history, but they were also more unfathomable.
"Truly amazing."
Lu Li kept browsing through the information. He was shocked.
"Hmm?"
His gaze suddenly paused.
He noticed a piece of news that did not attract much attention and quickly clicked on it to read it carefully.
"Old Master Guo is critically ill?"
Lu Li wanted to search for more information, but he couldn't find anything else.
…
After closing the page, Lu Li fell into deep thought. He held a delicate spoon in his right hand and gently stirred the coffee in his cup. His eyes were shining with excitement and solemnity.
"This old man will be chosen as the first member of our Longevity Club?”
Lu Li murmured to himself.
The smile on his face grew wider and wider. He looked up at the busy city behind the French windows and took a sip of his coffee.
After finishing his cup of coffee, he stood up and strode out.
