Chapter 674

【But this company commissioner kept obstructing things over and over, citing patent confidentiality.】

Kongzaosi's Kong Qing offered a few words of explanation.

【The Alliance's regulations on biological products are extremely strict.】

【Without further inspection, the Tianbo Division would never let it through, no matter what.】

Gui Naifen: "Good grief, a single shipment actually got three departments to come inspect it."

Gui Naifen: "Looks like the cargo this company is transporting really has one heck of a problem!"

Stelle: "Is the company running human experiments?"

Stelle: "That I have to condemn harshly!"

Dr. Ratio: "This sort of thing is strictly prohibited throughout the entire universe."

Dr. Ratio: "But... you know how it is."

Dr. Ratio: "In certain unseen, shadowy corners, such things still cannot be eliminated."

Boothill: "Holy shit, running into a piece of work like this, this old man would walk up and give him a kiss-of-death shot!"

Topaz: "However, if I may speak frankly, even if certain departments of the company truly have no bottom line, conducting such matters should be done with extreme secrecy."

Topaz: "They would never possibly take a well-known main shipping lane like this."

Topaz: "In other words, this batch of cargo most likely isn't actual experimental lifeforms."

Topaz: "Besides, I always have this hunch..."

Topaz: "This transport fleet being suddenly driven to Luofu Xianzhou for shelter — perhaps it wasn't a coincidence?"

Jade: "Hehe, same as my thoughts."

Jade: "It's just that I don't know whether the person behind this intended to drive a wedge between the Xianzhoulian Alliance and the company, or had some other scheme in mind?"

The video continued.

【Fine, anyone who wants to touch this cargo, I, Scott, will fight them to the death!】

【Whether what we're shipping is biological or mechanical, it has nothing to do with you!】

【I want to file a complaint against the Tianbo Division's handling procedures!】

Scott's attitude was extremely resolute, blocking the cargo and refusing to budge an inch! The onlookers all frowned.

【It seems this Mr. Scott is very stubborn, not easily persuaded.】

【Sigh... Hearing Yanqing really doesn't want things with the company to escalate to the point of tearing faces...】

Hearing Yanqing looked at Scott in this state.

An expression of difficulty surfaced on his face.

【Leave it to me! I'm a negotiation expert!】

Stelle stepped forward and declared, taking the whole thing upon herself.

【I've heard about what Teacher did to help Golden Man Alley before.】

【The company's representative at the time was this Mr. Scott, right?】

【Since you have experience dealing with him... looks like we'll have to trouble Teacher again this time.】

Hu Tao: "In the end, it still takes Xingxiaojie Society to step in!"

Hu Tao: "I wonder how Xingxiaojie Society will deal with this Scott?"

Stelle: "Last time I used hard power to make him sincerely convinced."

Stelle: "This time though... it won't be that easy."

Furina: "This 'hard power' you mentioned refers to?"

Paimon: "A hard, stiff bat, right?"

Stelle: "Of course... not!"

Stelle: "Last time Miss Sushang made a bet with Scott, saying she could definitely revitalize Golden Man Alley."

Stelle: "Then she invited me as a consultant."

Stelle: "The result was naturally that, under the strategy of this business genius — me — the ruined Golden Man Alley returned to prosperity!"

Stelle: "Scott lost the bet, barked like a dog in public, and then withdrew his people from Golden Man Alley."

Miss Sushang: "Right, right, if it weren't for your help turning the tide, the one barking like a dog in the end would've been me!"

Miss Sushang: "Speaking of which, even now when I look back I still get a little nervous — thank you so much."

Lumine: "Oh, so that's how it was."

Lumine: "I roughly understand now."

Lumine: "In other words, this Mr. Scott is still someone who accepts a lost bet?"

Stelle: "Mm, even though his character is terrible and he's pretty bizarre."

Stelle: "He really is someone who can take a loss."

March 7th: "Then how should we make him back down this time?"

March 7th: "Do we have to make another bet too?"

Xiangling: "The question is, what should we bet on?"

Stelle: "Honestly, I don't know either."

Stelle: "Let's just see what the me in the video plans to do."

The video continued.

【What are you all whispering about over there? Hand the cargo back to us right now!】

Scott saw Stelle and Hearing Yanqing whispering among themselves.

He immediately shouted loudly.

Seeing this, Stelle walked straight up to Scott.

Ready for a thoroughly satisfying negotiation!

【I remember this guy's personality is the classic type that only responds to force, not softness, but he still more or less follows the rules.】

【Then I'll use his personality traits to deal with him.】

Stelle thought back over Scott's characteristics as a person, and a rough direction began to form in her mind.

【Since you're bringing up safety regulations, then let's talk about the law.】

【According to Article Four of the "Luofu Xianzhou–Interstellar Peace Corporation Trade Consensus Declaration," the Alliance and the Corporation must never infringe upon each other's intellectual property.】

Just as Stelle was formulating her strategy in her mind,

Scott had already opened his mouth to strike first!

【Oh? Using the law to pressure me?】

【Hmph, let's disgust him a bit first before anything else.】

Seeing that Scott had actually brought up the law,

Stelle thought for a moment, then prepared to thoroughly disgust Scott first.

So she raised her head,

and put on a smile that gave Scott goosebumps all over.

【I never expected to see you again, Mr. Scott~ I actually quite miss our little sparring matches in Goldfish Alley~ Maybe this is fate between us.】

March 7th: "???"

March 7th: "Eww~"

March 7th: "Stelle, you're speaking so mushy!"

March 7th: "Listening to it gave me the chills!"

March 7th: "What kind of negotiation is this!"

March 7th: "You came here just to disgust people, right?"

Silver Wolf: "Oh my god, I always thought Sparkle was already squeaky enough."

Silver Wolf: "Didn't expect there's a master!"

Silver Wolf: "Stelle, you really know how to torment people!"

Sparkle: "Nonsense!"

Sparkle: "My voice isn't squeaky at all!"

Sparkle: "This is just my voice, what right do you have to call me squeaky?"

Sparkle: "Little gray-hair is the real squeaky one!"

Paimon: "Pfft... I didn't expect Miss Stelle to have such a strongly contrasting side to her."
