Of course I'm just making fun of you.
Looking at Director Chen, who was completely bewildered by his amusement, Lin Mo smiled with satisfaction.
He then typed again: "As expected of the intelligence bureau, I have successfully extracted all the important information from the parchment."
Chen Yanan stared at a text on the screen.
She read it four or five times, word by word, and finally stood up abruptly.
The shock and surprise in my heart were intertwined.
"What is it now, Director Chen?"
The group was clearly frightened by Director Chen's dramatic behavior tonight, and they all fearfully turned their gazes toward him.
Xiao Lian, standing to the side, was also stunned. Recalling what the director had just done, she couldn't help but swallow hard.
What's wrong with Director Chen today?
Is your brain damaged from working too hard?
Realizing her lapse in composure, Chen Yanan quickly recovered. Suppressing her excitement, she coughed twice and said, "Sorry, I have something to take care of. You guys go ahead and work, don't worry about me."
After saying that, she picked up her phone and went downstairs.
After Director Chen left, several employees couldn't help but mutter to themselves.
"Hiss...wait? What's wrong with Director Chen tonight? He's acting a bit strange."
"Do you think... Director Chen might be possessed by a ghost? I recently saw a supernatural novel at the bookstore that said people who are possessed by ghosts... will behave strangely at night!"
"Stop, stop, stop! Don't say anymore. It's dark and windy today, aren't you going to scare me?"
"Stop reading those harmful supernatural novels. Our Director Chen is clearly in love."
"Look at her, one minute she's looking downcast, the next she's overjoyed while looking at the chat app. Isn't that clearly the behavior of a little woman in love?"
"Huh? That makes sense, doesn't it?"
"How could that be! Besides General Jingyuan, what other man in Luofu is worthy of our Director Chen? What nonsense are you spouting?"
"Tsk tsk tsk, you know it all again, no wonder you're called 'Know-It-All'."
"Ah, yes, yes, yes."
...
The cool night breeze calmed Chen Yanan down considerably. She sat down on her luxurious starship, took a deep breath, and then took out her phone.
Nan Nan muttered to herself: "Are you kidding me?"
Lin Mo: [Guess?]
Nan Nan muttered to herself: "How did you guys do that?"
Lin Mo: [Guess?]
hiss……
Chen Yanan gasped. She felt very uncomfortable being teased by a man, especially one who was much younger than her and of lower rank.
I didn't mean to look down on the other person, I was just really annoyed.
Nan Nan murmured to herself: "Little Lin, do you still remember our promise?"
Lin Mo: [I remember you said there would be many benefits after this matter was handled properly.]
Although his primary motivation in this operation was to avenge Nomura and his companion, he figured he might as well take advantage of the side benefits.
I've been short on credits lately.
Looking at the message sent by the other party, Chen Yanan's lips twitched.
Good grief, you didn't listen to a single one of those rules, did you only remember that there were benefits to completing them?
Nan Nan muttered to herself: "You'll naturally get your share of the benefits, but before that, I need to verify the accuracy of the information you provided."
Nan Nan muttered to herself: [Otherwise, if you give me false information and trick me, who can I complain to?]
She knew Lin Mo wouldn't try to be clever in this regard; for him to do so was no different from giving false information.
Sooner or later he'll be arrested and sent to the Ten Kings' Division.
She said that simply to boost her morale and make the subsequent negotiations go more smoothly.
Lin Mo: [Hey, Director Chen, don't worry about that. I'm just a low-level diviner from the Grand Diviner's Office; I don't have the guts to do something like that.]
Lin Mo: [So, can we now properly negotiate the 'benefits'?]
By retreating in order to advance, he cleverly deflated the momentum he had previously built up and quickly got to the point, giving himself no chance to make any other corrections.
Negotiation is all about mindset and momentum.
Chen Yanan sighed, feeling that the guy in front of her was much more smooth and sophisticated than she had imagined, unlike an ordinary low-level diviner.
Nan Nan muttered to herself: "Then I'll just say it straight, what do you want?"
Seeing this, Lin Mo didn't back down and immediately sent the other party a screenshot.
When Chen Yanan opened it, her lips twitched again.
[Depositor: Lin Mo]
Gender: Male
Age: 302 years old
Occupation: Diviner
Balance: -800
[Last four digits: XXXXXXXX]
No wonder he's so calculating... Chen Yanan instantly understood him when she saw Lin Mo's bank account balance.
Nan Nan muttered to herself: "6, how many do you want?"
She chose to hand over the pricing power to the other party partly as a test, and partly because she felt that the other party was young and inexperienced and probably did not understand how valuable this information was, and would likely set the price much lower.
And since he set the price, if I just agree to it, the other party can't say anything.
Lin Mo: [Five...]
Chen Yanan frowned. What does it mean to only send a five?
She tentatively typed: 【Five hundred thousand?】
According to the standards of the interstellar information black market, 500,000 credits are at most enough to buy information on a believer of the level of Crimson Blood.
The dozen or so believers on the parchment were all as powerful as Chi Xue, or even more so, and were clearly not someone that could be taken down by a mere 500,000.
