Chapter 259

"Forget the birthday blessings, the true Oz isn't me." Jiang Xia said lightly.

"Jiang Xia, his real name is also Jiang Xia, he has lived in Dreamsee Town for over twenty years."

"Three months ago he suddenly quit his job as a cook, disappeared from society, and only goes out once a week to buy food."

"After Greed was revived, he suddenly appeared beside Huo Ye Yingsi and approached the bird-type Greed as an alchemist."

"Possessing a special Core Coin and Oz Driver, his true identity is most likely not human, but an alchemist who has survived since 800 years ago and participated in the creation of the Core Coin."

Jiang Xia turned his head and, without surprise, saw a young woman in a secretary's outfit with long brown hair.

A fairly pretty face, she also held a tablet computer, comparing the information on it with Jiang Xia's appearance.

"He looks just as handsome as in the picture, unfortunately he's possessed by an old antique." Inside Lizhong was filled with regret.

"The investigation found it to be very detailed, with no mistakes at all."

Jiang Xia chuckled slightly, as if he didn't care at all about his personal information being leaked.

Of course, the information in the hands of the woman named Lizhong Hui li xiang, aside from her appearance and photos, can be said to be fabricated, as if his information had been inserted into a world where Jiang Xia originally did not exist.

Once Jiang Xia starts acting, under the constant surveillance and data comparison of Dreamsee Town, there will inevitably be mismatches between his actions and the data.

Although the dimensional wall can arrange identities out of thin air, the loopholes are also very obvious, but it doesn't matter; if they don't match, they don't match.

He sat on the nearby sofa, looking at the descendant of the first-generation king, Hongshang Guangsheng, and said:

"I roughly guessed why you asked me to come today, so how should we cooperate?"

"As expected of someone who possesses a second set of Oz!"

Hongshang Guangsheng laughed and stood up:

"I am very interested in your alchemical art; the manufacturing of Core Coins and the evolution of desire make our goals align."

"So, join the Hongshang Foundation, Jiang Xia!"

As he was speaking, Hongshang Guangsheng suddenly shouted, his whole body becoming extremely agitated.

"Fine, I'll join; I'll also teach you the knowledge of Alchemical Art, but I only have one small condition—whether you agree or not?"

Jiang Xia's tone suddenly became somewhat teasing.

"But feel free to say it; within Dreamsee Town, the Hongshang Foundation can meet most of your demands."

Hongshang Guangsheng looked at the already-agreed Jiang Xia with a faint smile.

"In the room on the 27th floor beneath this building, I need a bit of those vast amounts of Core Coins for experiments." Jiang Xia said lightly.

Hongshang Guangsheng froze, a flash of sharp light passing through his pupils, though it lasted only a few seconds.

"As it turns out, you've already discovered it; this is my Hongshang Guangsheng's savings accumulated over many years."

He walked to the center of the office and spoke in a loud voice:

"As long as your knowledge can fulfill my long-held wish, you may freely dispose of these nearly infinite Core Coins."

Hongshang Guangsheng's body tensed slightly, his hands clenched tightly, and he said:

"That is to let Ouzi become the true Ouzi, gain power comparable to a deity, and let humanity keep evolving because of desire."

"Such a move is indeed grand, but this is also why Jiang Xia had previously found the warehouse where the Hongshang Foundation stores its Core Coins."

Hongshang Guangsheng clearly understood that if Jiang Xia truly was an Alchemical Art practitioner, he could silently infiltrate underground.

"Then directly steal all the Core Coins, causing his years of effort to come to nothing."

"It could even cause the world to be destroyed because of these vast quantities of Core Coins."

"But Jiang Xia did not do that; instead, he openly revealed the location,"

"This in itself already gave him enough face; this is also the sincerity of genuinely wanting to cooperate, so what reason does he have to refuse? Jiang Xia stood up and said: 'Since you are so sincere, I'll give you a meeting gift.' The tablet originally in Lizhong's hand suddenly floated up, and the screen that originally displayed Jiang Xia's identity information suddenly flickered with a trace of electric light, the image on it suddenly looking like a bad signal."

"Finally, it went completely black, a burnt smell emanating from the circuit board behind the tablet, obviously completely broken."

"After a few seconds, the screen of the originally damaged tablet suddenly began to flicker, vast amounts of data pouring into this already broken tablet, like seawater flowing back into a river."

"Enough data to blow up the storage was written all at once into the tablet, the screen flickering at a speed hundreds of times that of Heisei, and getting faster and faster."

"A final crazy frequency and strong light shook the office, and Lizhong, blinded by the rapid flashes, simply closed his eyes, refusing to look at the tablet floating in midair."

"But Hongshang Guangsheng seemed unaffected, his face illuminated by the light trembling slightly, even showing a delighted smile."

"Suddenly, the flickering on the tablet stopped, and special characters slowly appeared on the screen."

"Jiang Xia grabbed the tablet floating in the air and handed it to Hongshang Guangsheng, who took it with a fascinated expression and quickly kept sliding the screen in his hand."

"These are!!"

"Hongshang Guangsheng slowly placed the tablet in his hand on the table, asking in an unusually excited tone."

"He had already guessed it, but he still wanted to confirm once more."

"Regarding the specific data on the Alchemical Art that produced Core Coins 800 years ago, as well as the principle of the Ouzi Driver."

"I think this gift should be equivalent in value to the amount of ordinary coins I am about to use."

"The principle of Alchemical Art is equivalent exchange; I never take advantage of anyone, and since we are cooperating, fairness is natural." Jiang Xia said calmly.

"If this knowledge is not given to someone useful, it's no different from scrap paper; moreover, the results are shared, and I can still obtain vast amounts of Core Coins—why not?"

"These data can greatly shorten the time for the Hongshang Foundation to research super Core Coins."

"With these data, it will no longer take a span of forty years."

"Hongshang Guangsheng came before Jiang Xia, and the two stood facing each other."

"When Jiang Xia thought this meeting would just end like that, Hongshang Guangsheng suddenly shouted: 'Happy Birthday! This is a historic moment; we must celebrate.'"

"Lizhong"

"Yes"

"Lizhong beside them instantly understood Hongshang Guangsheng's meaning, skillfully taking out the tools for making a birthday cake from under the desk."

"Moreover, besides holding the cake-making tools, underneath there was actually an oven stuffed in."

"Let us together enjoy the beauty of birth."

Hongshang Guangsheng stood in this office situated several dozen meters above ground, and began to make a cake.

This isn't to celebrate Ouzi's birth with a small cake, but to make a super huge cake.

"Please be sure to stay, this is specially made for you."

After preparing everything, Li Zhong respectfully said to Jiang Xia.

Actually, it's because she really can't eat any more; if she lets the chairman continue, she'll burst.

Clearly she likes spicy food, but because of work she's been eating sweets all along.

Furthermore, the details of the cooperation need to be discussed specifically; ordinary coin transport is needed, and moreover, the various permits of the Hongshang Foundation will also be unlocked.

Otherwise, you can't even get through the company's front door, so don't bother coming to talk about cooperation.

The chairman only needs to agree to the cooperation; the secretary has many more things to consider.
