Zhuque said with a smile, "No problem! Boss, you should discuss it with the young boss. We have guests, so we should at least treat them to a meal, right?"
Huo Yushen pursed his lips and followed She Zhuyin down to the basement.
She Zhuyin didn't say anything, she walked ahead and went straight to her own vault in the basement.
The further Huo Yushen walked in, the more embarrassed he felt.
He said awkwardly, "Mom... I'll convert this gold bar into cash and return it to you..."
She Zhuyin smiled and said, "If this gold bar is given to someone else, I will definitely not agree, let alone whether to pay or not."
"But if it's for Chu Jian, you can take whatever you want, and you don't have to pay me..."
Huo Yushen tugged at the collar of his military uniform uncomfortably and said, "...It doesn't matter who you give it to, you have to pay."
She Zhuyin said: "Of course it's different. Didn't you hear me? If you want to give my gold bars to others, I won't give them to you."
Huo Yushen looked at She Zhuyin.
She Zhuyin looked at him with a smile on her face.
After a while, Huo Yushen gave up and whispered, "...It's...it's for Chu Jian."
She Zhuyin smiled with satisfaction: "Good boy, that's right. Be a little sweeter next time, don't act like everyone owes you tens of millions of gold bars..."
Huo Yushen: "..."
She Zhuyin opened the vault door and asked, "How many gold bars do you want today?"
Huo Yushen: "...one thousand."
She Zhuyin looked back at him, her eyes curved in a smile. "How much of a benefit are you taking from a young girl? If you do this again, I'll just mortgage you to Chu Jian... I can't afford to raise a son like you!"
Huo Yushen's mouth twitched, and after a long while he said, "No, she did me a favor..."
She Zhuyin pressed on: "What favor? What favor are you talking about that's worth a thousand gold bars?"
Huo Yushen took a deep breath and said, "...It was she who once raised my genetic evolution level from 3S to Ming level."
"Not long ago, you helped me break through from the Ming level to the Tang level."
This surprised She Zhuyin: "What?! It's been less than a year since you broke through to the Ming level?!"
"How long have you been stuck at level 3S?!"
Huo Yushen said: "...Ten years."
She Zhuyin frowned: "And it took less than a year to go from Ming level to Tang level?!"
"How is this possible?"
"Use your mental power and let me sense it. What if I'm wrong?"
Huo Yushen: "..."
He took a deep breath, resigned himself to his fate, and used a bit of his mental strength to float towards She Zhuyin.
She Zhuyin only sensed it slightly before her eyes widened and she said, "It really is Tang-level!"
"Oh my god! You were promoted to Tang level in less than a year. Did Chu Jian really help you?!"
Huo Yushen nodded: "Absolutely true."
She Zhuyin became excited.
She moved closer to Huo Yushen, lowered her voice, and said stealthily: "...How did she help you? Was it...did she practice dual cultivation with you..."
Huo Yushen closed his eyes, and the veins on his forehead were about to pop out.
What can I do if I have an unreliable mother?!
Mothers can’t choose!
My own mother, I have to endure it myself...
Huo Yushen squeezed out a word from between his teeth: "No!"
"It was a friend of hers who helped me remove the Zerg mark..."
"It was a kind of fog that seemed to have substance, covering me completely."
"Once my Zerg mark was removed, I discovered my own genes, and like a natural progression, I broke through the shackles and advanced to the Tang level."
She Zhuyin listened and tutted her tongue: "...What friend is she? Could it be her?"
Huo Yushen said seriously: "No, it should be her friend."
"She has a great personality and lots of friends. I don't know which one it is, but it certainly isn't her."
"If she were so powerful, she wouldn't still be an ordinary person whose genes can't evolve."
After hearing this, She Zhuyin said with regret: "That's true. Alas, such a good girl, why can't her genes evolve? What a pity..."
Then, she frowned and said, "She really did a great favor. You only gave her a thousand gold bars. That's too little. We can't take advantage of this little girl."
Huo Yushen thought to himself, I would like to give her all the treasury, are you willing to do that?
Of course, he just complained in his heart without any expression on his face. Even She Zhuyin, who knew him very well, had no idea that her son actually criticized her like this!
She just wandered around the vault with great interest, saying, "How about giving her a thousand gold bricks?"
Huo Yushen: "..."
A gold bar, ten taels.
A gold brick, one pound.
In other words, one gold brick is equal to ten gold bars.
One thousand gold bricks are equivalent to ten thousand gold bars!
Let’s not talk about how much it’s worth. It’s not easy just to move back so many gold bricks!
Besides, if it suddenly turned into a thousand gold bricks, Xia Chujian would definitely be scared and think that their family had robbed a bank...
Huo Yushen could only say calmly, "There's a long way to go, no rush."
She Zhuyin smiled brightly, waved her hand and said proudly: "Son, I love to hear this!"
"Yes! There's a long way to go! We need to take it slow and steady!"
"I, your mother, will give you all the gold in this vault. I'll use it to help you catch the big fish!"
Feeling that there was a loophole in this statement, She Zhuyin added: "Of course, the fish has to be the designated one!"
"If it's any other fish, I can't give you all this gold in my vault to catch those messy wild pond fish!"
Huo Yushen didn't say anything. He went to the safes in the vault, counted out a thousand gold bars, put them in a password box and took them out.
