Chapter 253 Gold Placer: What are you supposed to do? Forget it!
My older sister is coming.
My older sister is coming.
My sister... is... coming...
This sentence filled Sha Jin's mind. A chill ran down his spine, and this time, cold sweat truly broke out on his body.
[Hunting] has the property of causality. The older sister must have seen something at a certain point in time, which is why she rushed to Pinocchio.
Should I continue with my plans?
It's rare to see such a clever mind as Sand Gold's in complete chaos.
If this continues, they'll get punished, they'll get punished.
I'm sure I'll get a spanking.
The gold dust blinked.
"Have you thought it through?"
Ladio's indifferent expression suddenly took on a hint of schadenfreude:
"If you still want to continue, then that man from the Oak family wants to meet you now."
"If you don't want your sister to worry, turn around and leave right now, and treat this place like a vacation."
Sand Gold certainly didn't want his sister to worry.
The problem is that he had already crushed his original aventurine and thrown it into a pile of jewelry.
That's so I can see those guys next.
He even borrowed the base stones of topaz and emerald.
A fierce internal struggle began in Sand Gold's mind, a state of utter chaos.
Work... Sister... Work... Sister...
It seemed as if I could see my older sister pulling my ear and scolding me.
A long time ago, when I was in danger, my sister would cry.
I don't know when, but my sister never shed a tear in front of him again.
But Sand Gold always knew that, in places he couldn't see, his sister was still sad.
She felt saddened that she hadn't been able to protect her younger brother and distressed by her own powerlessness.
...I didn't want to upset my sister.
Sand Gold looked at his hands.
—Work and stuff…
Go to hell!
"Okay, I admit it, I don't want to go."
Sand Gold looked up at Ladio: "Professor, could you please pass on a message for me?"
Ladio was not surprised.
Miss Sasana is the most important relative to Sand Gold. No matter how much Sand Gold gambles, he will never gamble in front of Miss Sasana.
Even if it means losing a few foundation stones?
"It's okay, I have more."
Sand Gold smiled.
It's alright, he has plenty of foundational assets. Whether his own gold dust is gone or the foundational assets of the other two are gone, he can afford to compensate.
But it still hurts.
I borrowed those two's foundation stones precisely because I didn't want to risk using the foundation stones given to me by the True Lord...
"Okay, then I can help you deal with it."
Ladio calmly asked, "What are you planning to do about your work at the company?"
It's important to understand that—amidst the intense power struggle between the Strategic Investment Department and the Market Development Department—Diamonds had finally secured control of the Pinocone project from the "Seven-Member Board of Directors." This project aimed to reintegrate Pinocone into the company's equity. If Gold Placer were to falter at this crucial juncture, causing the project to fail…
Ladio didn't think Yunzhi's reputation would still be of any use by then.
"There's no need to worry about that, Professor."
Without hesitation, Sand Gold replied, "We can't possibly have only one plan; I've simply chosen the one with the highest probability of success."
"Since this road is impassable, let's choose the safest one."
Sand Gold smiled very cutely.
Latio: "So?"
Then he saw the little peacock in front of him make a graceful turn.
Ladio seemed to see that his tail feathers had already spread out behind him.
"So, as you said, I'm going to find the True Lord now."
"I believe that before the True Lord gets his hands on the Pinocchio, he'll be willing to share some of the soup with me."
Sand Gold said this and left happily.
Ladio: ...
Forgive my bluntness, but this is the method with the highest success rate.
So you knew that if you partnered with Yunzhi, you'd most likely only get the scraps.
Well, he figured Yunzhi really appreciated the gold dust, so maybe he wouldn't just give him soup.
Ladio also turned around.
—Let him go and call back that man named Sunday.
At this moment, on a Sunday at the Asaru Mansion—
Why haven't they arrived yet?
------------------
Sand Gold wasn't so blind as to actually go looking for Yunzhi.
After all, he had been stared at by eyes from billions of light-years away several times. If he didn't understand things now, he would never understand them at all.
and……
Yun Zhi and Lan had entered the Chaolu Mansion at some point.
That's right, it's the Chaolu Mansion.
After experiencing "Hamster Rider: Speed and Nuts" at the Hamster Rider theme park in Krok Film Park, and then playing "Hanu Brothers: The Way of the Wolf" at the Hanu Gang Base and successfully completing both games, Yunzhi and Lan went to the "Family" council hall—the Morning Dew Mansion.
The fortress of the Oak family, the place where the heads of the family gather to discuss the grand plan of Pinocchio—Morning Dew Mansion.
This place is nominally designated for Sundays, and no one may enter without his invitation.
Therefore, at the entrance of the mansion, there were many guests waiting to apply for appointments.
This mansion is beautiful, and the interior is exceptionally luxurious.
The authority of the "family" is evident through the decorations.
Do I need to make an appointment to enter?
I'm sorry, but people are just different.
Lan glanced around at the guests—they were all busy and didn't have time to pay attention to what the people around them looked like.
"reserve?"
"We don't need it."
Yun is very confident:
"Those who need appointments are people asking their families for favors; as for us..."
"We were invited on Sunday, the same day we arrived."
It feels pretty good to use your power to oppress others, right?
Lan commented, "The security is quite tight."
The residences of warlords on many planets are not as heavily fortified as this.
"After all, this is where the heads of the family discuss matters. If something happens, the Pinocchio 'family' will probably be paralyzed on the spot."
At that time, Pinocchio will be torn to shreds by the surrounding wolves.
There's nothing wrong with being heavily guarded.
