He suddenly realized that the other party was likely trying to sow discord.
If you admit that you are superior to these bodyguards, even if they don't say anything and act as if you are the boss and they are the employees, you will lose their respect and distance yourself from them.
Perhaps if something unexpected happens again, they won't put in their best effort.
This concept of hierarchy has a long history in the West and has also existed in China for many years.
However, there are differences between China and the West. People in China have long recognized the equality of all beings, and the saying "Are kings and nobles born with a special destiny?" has been particularly prevalent since the late Qing Dynasty and the Republic of China, and especially after the founding of the People's Republic of China. The concept of equality has taken deep root in people's hearts.
The Western class system was not broken down until after the bourgeois revolution.
As far as Chen Dong knew, the Freemasons had a strict hierarchy.
For example, Freemasonry has only three official ranks, represented by the symbol "°". First-degree members are called "Apprentices", second-degree members are called "Stonemason's Assistants", and third-degree members are called "Masters". Neither Apprentices nor Stonemason's Assistants are full members. Only Masters are full members and represent the highest rank in Freemasonry. Only the Scottish Ridge have thirty-three ranks.
"Haha, Mr. Chen, you are too modest. It is not something an ordinary person can do to rise from almost nothing to become a billionaire in just three years."
"Many so-called rich people, even if they work hard their whole lives, will not reach your current level."
"That's why I'm so curious about you! I wonder if there's anything you can teach me?"
Chen Dong's lips curled into a disdainful smile. "Heh, give a man a fish and you feed him for a day; teach a man to fish and you feed him for a lifetime. You want to directly learn my fishing techniques, huh? But even if I wanted to teach you, do you think you could just learn it?"
The other party had no intention of giving up. "You don't need to worry about that. With so many elites in the organization, they're sure they can figure it out!"
Chen Dong retorted sharply: "As far as I know, the Freemasons are an organization that wants to change the world and humanity. Finance is under your control, yet you're making this kind of request before I've even joined? You want me to reveal my secrets to making money? Isn't that a bit strange? I don't know if this is your personal idea or a requirement when you recruit new members?"
"Hehe, you reacted quickly and were quite outspoken. Aren't you afraid I'll get angry?" the other person chuckled twice and said.
"Why should I be afraid of making you angry? What you've done before, plus what you're saying now, seems to be deepening my suspicions and making me have a bad impression of your organization, so I'll stay away from you. In other words, you don't want me to join..."
"Hehe, you caught me... Actually, I also find it strange why I asked you. I've been paying attention to you for a long time because many times, when we deliberately create confusion in finance, you don't fall for it, as if you can see through the fog. Of course, what's even stranger is that you seem to be able to clearly grasp the trend of things. Can you see into the future?"
Hearing what the other person said, Chen Dong felt a tightness in his chest.
That's what they actually said.
He said he noticed himself a long time ago and made this judgment about himself. If you only examine yourself as one of the people in this world, then it is a very high evaluation.
It's not a good thing that the other party values you so much!
If the other party discovers my secret, wouldn't I be dissected and subjected to all sorts of research?
Even if they don't do that, just locking themselves up and making them provide all sorts of information about the future, they still can't stand it, and they would lose their freedom.
Moreover, what I told them was enough for them to do many things.
Thinking of this, Chen Dong smiled faintly, "Hehe, you mean, you believe that magical abilities really exist in this world?"
"That's hard to say. The world is full of wonders! We should maintain a sense of awe towards this world!"
Chen Dong seemed very curious: "Does your organization have people like that?"
The other party's tone turned cold as they said, "That's not something I can tell you right now. If you want to know, join us!"
"Heh, you think you can invite me to join you just because you're hiding your true self and don't even dare to show your real form? I want to live in the sunlight, not hide in the sewers all the time!" Chen Dong deliberately provoked the other party.
Surprisingly, the other person wasn't angry at all. Instead, they said, "That's right, you're right! Well, when I come out, don't be so scared you wet your pants. Haha!"
Then, long, semi-transparent curtains suddenly hung down all around, swaying gently in the air.
The light suddenly dimmed considerably, making the palace appear more secluded.
Then, Chen Dong saw a huge figure appear in the distance, slowly drifting over!
Chen Dong knew, of course, that under normal circumstances, it was impossible for a person to float.
Chen Dong guessed that the person must have a cart or pulley or something similar underneath him, or some kind of high-tech equipment that allowed him to move forward while sitting on it.
As the person drew closer, Chen Dong realized that it wasn't a person, but a mountain of flesh.
That guy's size is just...unbelievable.
No wonder I felt an echo when I heard the other person speak.
It turns out that the echo had already occurred once inside the other person's body.
Then, a huge table suddenly appeared in front of this person.
There was a lot of food on the table.
Meat, pastries, fruits, drinks, and much more.
