Chapter 507 Resetting the Anchor Point
After receiving the call, he cheerfully congratulated Gu Qing on the birth of her son, completely ignoring Bo Chuan standing behind her.
Gu Qing didn't bring that up, "I should congratulate you! I heard that Patriarch Yu has advanced."
The Yu family head's rank was not high. If it weren't for this promotion, he would probably be nearing the end of his life soon. Yu Xinran's father also suffered mental trauma.
Although Yu Xinran's current rank is decent, her management and control over the family is still far from sufficient. If something were to happen to her mother now, she could very well be stripped of power.
This time, Yu Xinran's mother's lifespan increased by 50 years, and her abilities also improved, allowing her to protect Yu Xinran for several more decades. Even his father can have some respite.
Yu Xinran was indeed happy, "Same to you, same to you, thanks to the generous donation from Patriarch Gu."
Her mother was able to advance thanks to the top-grade life-extending worm that Gu Qing had exchanged for.
"Not at all, it's just a fair trade. By the way, speaking of trades, I have something to ask of you." Gu Qing had wanted to call him before giving birth.
"Oh! Just tell me what's on your mind."
"We're almost the same age, so let's not use formal language. I'm younger than you, so I'll call you Sister Yu."
"Alright, then I won't stand on ceremony. I'll call you Sister Gu." Yu Xinran was very alluring, and her smile was captivating.
Gu Qing was stunned for a moment, which made her laugh even more happily, "I said, how could you have fallen for that sharp-tongued guy behind you? You must have been bewitched by his face."
"This is my husband, if you say anything more about him, I'll get angry." Gu Qing said, reaching out to take Bo Chuan's hand.
Yu Xinran quickly raised one hand in a gesture of surrender, "Okay, okay, I won't say anything more."
"Let's get down to business. I'd like to order another defensive anchor point from your facility, based on the same standard as the previous one. I hope it can be completed as soon as possible."
Gu Qing felt that she would eventually develop both landmasses, so when making anchor points, she shouldn't skimp on the small area.
Yu Xinran's eyes lit up when she heard what she said.
"Of course, that's no problem. I also want to thank Sister Gong for supporting my family's business. But could we change the items we're exchanging this time?"
Gu Qing took the water that Bo Chuan handed her and took a small sip.
Then, with a smile, she looked at the other person and said, "Sister Yu, is there anything you want? You can tell me, and I'll see if I have it here."
If we can all put together a team, we can discuss it.
Although she was the buyer, her own items were unique, so she had to maintain a proper demeanor.
Yu Xinran smiled along. She really didn't intend to ask for an exorbitant amount. Although she was a capitalist, capitalists paid more attention to long-term interests.
"Isn't that right? My father's pollution level has skyrocketed, and although my mother has leveled up, she has many people to take care of, so my father will soon be out of control. That's why I'm asking Sister Gu for a spot in the purification program."
Gu Qing pretended to think for a moment, then said, "I don't have any problem with it. Just because of your previous help, I'll give you this spot."
"But are you sure you don't want to make any other demands? After all, the Yu family has quite a few members."
Yu Xinran gave a wry smile. She didn't blame Gu Qing for not trusting her. After all, such a big thing as stabilizing the pollution level for her father had been delayed.
Creating a defensive anchor point requires a significant amount of resources, so whether she can make that decision is a real question.
That's what I thought, but I still needed to reassure her. "Sister Gu."
She became a little embarrassed as she said this.
"I wanted to ask you for three spots."
She knew that Gu Qing's external purification slots were now being sold for exorbitant prices. Although Gu Qing hadn't given a clear indication, the fact that someone was bidding on them proved their value.
Gu Qing, however, thought the price was reasonable, considering she had given 20 purification slots for the planet's anchor point. "Okay, but I'll trouble you to go to the trouble of finding one for me; I need it quite urgently."
Seeing Gu Qing agree so readily, Yu Xinran was overjoyed. "Okay, don't worry, I will have my family's top-level weapon refiner make it for you right away, and I guarantee that the materials will all be top-notch."
She was thrilled. This wasn't just about the three spots; it was about how she could use this opportunity to establish herself within the family and solidify her position with her father's help—a win-win situation.
After explaining the magnetic field conditions of that landmass in detail, the two hung up the call, and Bo Chuan started massaging her shoulders.
"You're so virtuous!"
Gu Qing's words were a double entendre.
