The World Conquest: Giving Birth To Become A God

Chapter 210 Business Negotiation

Chapter 210 Business Negotiation

Two years later,

Maximus was in his training chamber, meditating as usual.

After a few hours, Maximus exhaled finished with his meditation.

"Huh~"

"Training is really satisfying."

Opening his system panel, he nodded at his progress.

[Maximus Shadowcrest:

Tier 5: 1.98%

Mana Compatibility: Rank 9 Dimensional Source 

Soul Amplitude: 10,000,000

Soul Will: 5,372,583]

Although his progress when it came to tier is slow, increasing only a few decimals in percentage.

His Soul Amplitude is finally full.

Knowledge upon knowledge was devoured by him until he finally filled the 10 million soul amplitude.

After he filled it up, he began working with his soul will.

So far, he was already halfway there.

Maximus decided to address his slow training speed once he filled up the soul will.

As for how he can do that, it's, of course, by upgrading his affinity.

His affinity is still stuck to three years ago.

Until now, the 1115 elements are still at rank 7 and 3 supreme elements at rank 4.

It's not that he didn't want to upgrade it quickly, but he needed trillions of potential points before he started.

With his current system points acquisition rate, it would take him about a year to get a trillion points.

Maximus figured that instead of wasting the points sitting in his system, he would use them to strengthen himself until it could no longer take effect.

Coming out of his training room, he was greeted by Lux.

"Good morning, Dad! You finally finished your training."

"Alright, stop chirping, tell me what you wanted."

During these few years, the Aetherium Guild grew at an exponential rate.

In the Silverleaf domain, their main base of operation, Aetherium Guild is already a household name.

Every major city has at least an Aetherium Pavilion in its midst.

Such growth also caused repercussions.

Various top business guilds, pavilions, and families.

All these top echelons of people within the Silverleaf domain, eyed this growing little devouring beast.

Various business tactics, price suppression, false propaganda, intimidation, attacks, etc.

Anything that can blacken Aetherium Guild and bring it down was used.

Even Maximus's status as a core student can't stop these groups of jackals from hunting.

After all, when it comes to interest, courage knows no bounds.

As long as they can earn money now, who cares about the future?

Anyway, unless Maximus becomes an apex sovereign, there is nothing he can do to them.

Fortunately, inside the city boundaries, killing was forbidden.

Any attempt to do so would get one killed in the cruelest way possible.

As for outside the city, in the various wilderness?

That's where Lux was stumped.

As long as it's business dealings, Lux can claim to be invincible.

But when it comes to a fight, he is helpless.

These jackals ambushed his subordinate from time to time, causing him large casualties.

Tens of thousands of students who had just graduated died in the first ambush of these jackals.

If it were not for Lux's alertness and his decision to make all his subordinates retreat without a second hesitation.

The casualties could have wiped out his men then and there.

After that, Lux didn't let his men out of the city for a while to collect resources until he thought of a plan.

However, such a result was what these jackals wanted.

Without the supply of resources, the Aetherium Guild began showing a decline.

Even the proud Lux couldn't do anything about it.

Finally, in desperation, Lux could only grit his teeth and seek help from his father.

After that, with the help of the Shadow Hunters Guild, everything somewhat stabilized.

Those jackals also held their fangs, waiting for an opportunity.

To this date, Lux's head still hurt when he thought of this.

Without the necessary strength, one can't really possess enormous wealth.

"Dad, how about you give me a discount?"

"Almost all the income of the shop is used to recruit the Shadow Hunters Guild."

"I can't even earn enough pocket money. Look, I'm already getting thin," Lux pointed as he teared up.

This is Lux's solution.

If he didn't have enough strength, then hire one.

Coincidentally, he can hire his father's guild for a cheap price compared to a mercenary guild.

As the Aetherium Pavilion spreads all over the Silverleaf domain, it can earn nearly a hundred trillion.

However, even with all of this, he can only earn a few trillion magic crystals a month, which is really pitiful.

The cost of salary, operation fees, miscellaneous expenses, and hiring the Shadow Hunter Guild nearly drained all his income.

Lux loathed those nasty jackals for cheating and not fighting fairly.

Lux can only coax his father to give him a larger discount.

"No, no more discount. I also have a guild to run and a family to feed," Maximus showed a hurt expression.

However, in reality, Maximus also earned a lot from Lux's hiring.

Although it's only a few trillion which is nothing to him, it gives him some joy.

After all, his children were finally becoming filial and giving him some pocket money.

As for helping Lux solve his problem, Maximus had no thought to this.

If his children can't even solve this bit of a problem, then they should go home and spend his money.

Anyway, he can afford it.

"But Dad, don't you pity me~" Lux still acted coquettish.

"Sure, sure, how about giving me a higher shareholding?" Maximus teased.

As the previous owner of the Aetherium Pavilion and the one who nurtured his subordinates.

Lux reluctantly gave his father a 20 percent income share of the Aetherium Guild.

"Impossible!" Lux immediately refused.

How can he further dilute his ownership?

Although it's his father, when it comes to money, Lux is the stingiest.

"Then what do you want? Anyway, I won't give you any more discount," Maximus said.

"I will think this thoroughly; anyway, more share would be impossible," Lux said like a wilted plant.

Looks like he can't coax his father today.

"Let's try again tomorrow," Lux thought.

"Hold up, I have a business proposition for you," Maximus thought for a while and stopped Lux.

"What is it, Dad? As long as it's not borrowing money, I can help with anything!" Lux patted his chest.

"Hahaha, don't worry, come here," Maximus just laughed.

Holding Lux, he communicated with the timeless world and teleported them inside.

...

Timeless World:

"Whoah!"

"Where is this?"

"Is this a medicinal heaven?"

Lux looked around dumbfounded.

Inside the timeless world, it was like a paradise.

With flora and fauna all around, what's more eye-catching is 11 towering tree that exudes an extraordinary aura.

Lux felt the wealth flowing within then is like a sun.

If an alchemist were here, they would be shocked by the flora and fauna growing around.

From the rarest Tier 1 spiritual plant to Tier 8 spiritual plant.

All the seeds that Maximus could afford were planted in this timeless world.

With a hundred thousand times time difference, about three hundred thousand years passed in here.

All kinds of low tier seeds had already mutated or ascended to a higher tier than their limit.

Looking at Lux's shocked expression, Maximus couldn't help but smile.

This timeless world is his huge wealth, with all the rare seeds as investment.

Maximus threw tens of quadrillions just to grow it to this degree.

"How about it? Is this world beautiful?" Maximus teased.

"Beautiful?" Lux unconsciously muttered.

"This must be the most beautiful world I have ever seen." Lux looked longingly.

Although he didn't know what kinds of flora and fauna were around him.

Using his feeling he can estimate how much such a wealth is worth.

"Where are we, Father?"

"Is this a small world?"

"Did you find this in your early years?"

"Wait, does that mean that this is ours?"

"So this is where you got your wealth?"

Lux muttered as he asked questions one after another.

"Alright, stop," Maximus covered Lux's mouth helplessly.

"First, this is the timeless world, a small world I got as a reward in the world competition three years ago."

"So yes, this is 'mine.'" Maximus emphasize.

"As for where I got my wealth, it's a secret," Maximus teased.

Maximus didn't care if Lux questioned where he earned his money from.

Anyway, as long as he is careful, those apex sovereigns wouldn't bother him.

Furthermore, sooner or later, he would present the Myriad World Mall to the world.

After all, doing business alone was never profitable.

Based on the policy of the Myriad World Mall, for every person invited by the user in a new dimension.

One will get 0.00001 percent of that person's spending and income.

Meaning, for each person you invite, you will get a tax of 0.00001 percent for every transaction.

This measure is for those who possess the Myriad World Mall to spread it all over the dimension.

After all, the more, the merrier; this will also prevent people from monopolizing the world for their own benefit.

Of course, it was only for the Myriad World Mall; as for his system, he will never spread it out.
