Only two words are revealed between the lines.
—I won't pay it back.
Regardless of what expectations Ye Li had for him before.
At this moment, all of that was shattered without a trace by those two simple words.
"Indeed, in this world, face is the least valuable thing."
Originally, Ye Li still held a sliver of hope.
After all, based on previous interactions, He Daqiang seemed quite kind and easy to talk to.
But now it seems he was wrong.
He Daqiang's ability to become the top highway driver was definitely not solely due to his easygoing nature.
When it comes to interests, no one will back down.
Just as Ye Li was sighing inwardly, He Daqiang's message popped up again: "Captain Ye, don't misunderstand, I didn't mean to disrespect you. Cooperation is cooperation, and interests are interests. I can't let my men starve just for the sake of saving face, can I?"
"How about this, Captain Ye? If you really want it, let's continue our previous business. One mythical-grade material can be exchanged for one Void Stone ore. That way, I can give my men an explanation."
He Daqiang didn't forget to praise Ye Li: "Captain Ye, your stuff is really good. My men have only used it for a day, and their strength has almost doubled. They can even catch blades with their bare hands. They're almost as good as the Fire Cloud Evil God."
Hehe!~
Ye Li looked at the message and a disdainful sneer appeared on his lips: "I've always treated Captain He like a brother, but I never expected that Captain He would only treat me like a cousin. It's really disheartening!"
"My terms are already listed in the trading market. If Captain He wants to trade, he should strictly follow the terms I have given in the market."
Ye Li paused briefly before continuing, "There's one more thing... I hope everyone in the Sichuan-Chongqing team will take good care of themselves on the road ahead."
"Thanks for reminding me!"
He Daqiang gave a brief reply.
Set the screen aside.
At that moment, several more people appeared in his carriage.
One of the men stood out.
He had a buzz cut, a round face, and a thick beard on his chin.
He was short in stature but appeared very sturdy.
Most importantly, his entire body had turned purple.
There was also a raised lump on his forehead, like a horn.
This man was Zheng Gang, the deputy captain of the Sichuan-Chongqing team. After seeing He Daqiang put the screen down, he asked, "Old He, isn't it a bit premature for us to clash with Ye Li's team now?"
"Early what?" He Daqiang's face was somewhat cold as he said in a deep voice, "Although Void Stone ore has some side effects, its enhancement to the human body is undeniable. Judging from today's situation, it seems that not all members of Ankun's joint convoy have used this stuff yet..."
"At the current stage, the gap in strength between us and Ye Li should be the smallest. If we wait until all the members of the Ankun United Team use this kind of thing, I think the gap between us and the Ankun United Team will widen. And the team that will be left behind will definitely not be Ye Li's team."
"Old He, you're really boosting the morale of others while diminishing your own. With your talent, you could create a mythical weapon every day. I'm not kidding, even if the entire An Kun team built themselves into an impenetrable fortress, they'd be nothing but tofu in front of our mythical weapons," Zheng Gang said confidently.
"I do hope so!" He Daqiang picked up a glass of wine and said calmly.
"Then, how about we act tonight? There will definitely be a sea monster attack tonight. Let's take advantage of the chaos to send our team members closer and catch them off guard!" Zheng Gang said in a deep voice, making a throat-slitting gesture with his hand.
