Chapter 565: Sign the Contract! The Past of Thunder Martial Arts Academy!

Did nothing at all, yet got 10 billion for free?

And there might be additional profits later?

Such a thing exists?

Xu Jingming never expected Song Feng had summoned him over this.

He'd seen people desperate to borrow money, but this was his first time experiencing someone desperate to give it.

Still, Song Feng's attitude was beyond reproach—he truly treated him like family.

"Family doesn't need to speak like outsiders; I and Song Qiuyun will marry eventually."

Whether this money stays with me or with the Song family, it's the same."

If I ever truly need funds, I'll just ask Uncle directly."

Xu Jingming replied with a smile.

Upon hearing this, Song Song Qiuyun's face flushed slightly, revealing a touch of shyness.

Jiang Chu's expression, however, held a faint hint of envy.

As an orphan, she would likely never experience such a warm family atmosphere.

"Good, good, good—now I'm reassured by your words."

Song Feng uttered three "goods" in succession, his joy unmistakable.

His daughter didn't mind Xu Jingming having multiple women; as a father, he wouldn't interfere excessively.

His only concern was whether Xu Jingming might abandon her after gaining her affection.

Now, with this promise, a heavy stone had lifted from his heart.

"Even so, the proper procedures must still be followed."

A faint glow from his space ring produced a contract in Song Feng's hand, which he handed over:

"I won't bother specifying profit shares.

Here is the equity contract for Limit Equipment Company—I'm transferring 30% of the company's shares to you.

That makes you the company's second-largest shareholder.

Limit Equipment Company distributes dividends every quarter.

But right now, the company is in a phase of rapid expansion; these dividends will likely be reinvested into the market to seize market share.

Of course, if you truly need cash urgently, withdrawing over ten billion from the company's account won't be an issue."

Seeing this, Xu Jingming was about to refuse again.

But after thinking it over, if he didn't sign,

Song Feng would likely feel those orders brought by him had become too hot to handle.

So he smiled and said, "Then I won't refuse your kindness."

Two copies of the contract were signed and each party kept their own, then the dinner began.

Song Feng was clearly in high spirits, repeatedly raising his glass and saying he must meet Xu Jingming's aunt someday.

Xu Jingming nodded in agreement and joined him in drinking.

At the table, the atmosphere was harmonious.

"Nanning City has many places worth visiting.

Afterward, I'll take Uncle and you for a tour, to see the night scenery here."

After three rounds of drinks, dinner neared its end, and Xu Jingming smiled and extended the invitation.

Since Song Feng had come all this way, he certainly owed them proper hospitality.

"No, our flight back to Sichuan is at nine.

With order volumes increasing, the company still has many matters to handle."

Song Feng shook his head and smiled:

"Besides, I don't need any company—Xiao Yun and the others just arrived; you should spend more time with them."

He had been through that age himself and knew what lovers in passion truly needed.

Moreover, Xu Jingming and Song Song Qiuyun were often apart.

Song Song Qiuyun naturally caught the implication; her face instantly flushed crimson.

Xu Jingming remained calm, merely nodding slightly: "Uncle, rest assured—I understand."

"Alright, we'll leave then. Good luck in the Heavenly Tournament—if you have time, your Fifth Uncle and I will watch online."

"Goodbye, Uncle."

"Goodbye."

At the restaurant entrance, Xu Jingming returned with the two women to the Thunder Martial Arts Academy headquarters.

Song Feng and Song Hai boarded the Song family's pre-waiting off-road vehicle bound for the airport.

"Second brother, wasn't Limit Equipment Company entirely under your control?

Why give Xu Jingming a third? Aren't you worried he'll interfere in our business management?"

As soon as they got in the car, Song Hai asked, puzzled.

A family thrives best under unified management.

Song Feng had chosen to split the family precisely because he couldn't tolerate his elder brother Song Zhan meddling in his decisions.

Yet now he was giving away so much equity—he couldn't understand why.

"I'm not worried at all."

As the scenery outside the window flashed by, Song Feng explained with a smile:

"Limit Equipment Company is extremely important to the Song family.

But to Xu Jingming—or rather, to the future Xu Jingming—it means little.

Given the current trajectory, Xu Jingming will likely succeed Su Su Qingli as head of the Thunder Martial Arts Academy.

He will also establish his own family.

With the Thunder Martial Arts Academy as his backing, his own family will grow rapidly.

Our modest Limit Equipment Company might still be useful to the present Xu Jingming.

But the future Xu Jingming? He might not even glance at it."

The previous head of the Thunder Martial Arts Academy, Su Su Tianrui, was himself an orphan.

After rising to power, he married only an ordinary woman.

He fathered Su Su Qingli but never built a sizable family.

After his wife died tragically, Su Su Tianrui devoted himself entirely to cultivation, striving to break through to a higher realm of supreme strength, and never remarried.

But Xu Jingming is different.

At just twenty, he's already entangled with two women.

It's foreseeable that the future Xu Jingming will establish a vast family with his own enterprises.

What the Song family treasures as a jewel, Xu Jingming might build effortlessly.

"That's true."

Song Hai finally understood, then sighed:

"Come to think of it, the previous head of the Thunder Martial Arts Academy was truly an oddity.

As a ninth-rank peak Law Saint, he never once considered founding a psychic clan."

Su Su Tianrui, obsessed with cultivation, didn't just fail to build a family—he entrusted all academy affairs to Deputy Head Hu Hu Jinyu.

Any ordinary person who did this would have been sidelined long ago.

Yet Su Su Tianrui, with his ninth-rank peak power, crushed all dissent.

Even so, when Su Su Tianrui vanished, the lurking crisis finally erupted.

Since Su Su Tianrui had never established his own family and had only Su Su Qingli as an heir,

at that time Su Su Qingli had just barely broken through to seventh-rank Master.

Thus, the deputy head naturally became acting head.

Had Su Su Qingli not suddenly broken through to ninth-rank two years later, within a few more years Hu Hu Jinyu would have become the official head.

Even so, Su Su Qingli's position was only superficially glorious—actually precarious.

Fortunately, Xu Jingming's recent arrival and Ling Shuang's return have slightly stabilized her standing.

"When Su Su Tianrui was only forty-six, he was already a ninth-rank peak Law Saint.

If I were him, I'd likely ignore all other matters and focus solely on breaking through to a higher level."

Song Feng could understand Su Su Tianrui's choice.

Since the Resurgence of Yuan Energy two hundred years ago, the entire Blue Planet has produced only six Supreme Beings.

These six Supreme Beings held unparalleled status and terrifying power, towering above all other psychics on the Blue Planet.

He had once seen from afar the Supreme Being of Great Xia, Chairman Zhou.

Just one glance from the man made this eighth-rank Grand Master feel his very life was no longer his own to control.

Such godlike power is the ultimate peak every psychic aspires to.
