Oh My God! Earthlings are Insane! - Chapter 1437

Chapter 1437 Solution (1)

“That’s different!”

Engineer Xue seemed to suffer great humiliation, and blood was seeping out of every crease on his face. “I admit that I made a mistake during the early exploration, but the development of the vein was too weird. Any prospector in Dragon City, even Lu Siya, who was in my position at that time, would have come to the same conclusion after seeing the images and data!

“Even if I did make an unforgivable mistake, it was only a question of my ability. “However, in the case that I’ve made a huge mistake, I would have to make it knowingly and repeatedly. That would not only be due to my lack of ability but also due to the professional ethics of a prospector…” “Ethics?”

Before Engineer Xue could finish, Shen Yulin grabbed him by the collar and lifted him so high that his toes were off the ground.

“What are you talking about?” Shen Yulin was furious as he enunciated each word clearly. “Let me tell you what morality is!

“Do you know how much capital Universe Corporation has invested in the Red Creek Project because of your rash exploration report? Do you know how many disciples of the Shen clan have bet their future on the damn Red Radiance Jade lode!

“Do you know how many investors, other than the Shen family, have high hopes for the ‘Red Creek Project’? How many more grand plans are being prepared and pushed forward for the project?

“Do you know how much the universal group’s valuation has increased since the great victory in the Monster War? How many people have thrown their lives into the financial market to support the universal group and the Red Creek Project?

“The valuation of the universal group has already reached the sky. If it were to fall in a straight line at this time, would there be a second result other than being smashed into pieces?

“‘morality’. HMPH. Let me tell you. Bringing huge profits to the investors is the greatest morality. Letting millions of investors lose all their money or even lose their families is the greatest unmorality. Do you understand? Do you understand!

“Alright. I Won’t talk to you about these useless theories. Old Xue, let’s talk about the most important issue at hand. If we can’t get past this hurdle, how are you going to explain the red brilliant jade clusters that should have stayed obediently in the crystal warehouse but ‘disappeared’now?”.

Engineer Xue seemed to have been punched hard on his face. His eyes almost popped out of their sockets. He cried out involuntarily, “To be honest, not many of those red brilliant jade clusters have fallen into my Fanny Pack!”

“Nonsense.”

Shen Yuling said in an unpleasant tone, “Not many fell into your Fanny Pack, but how many fell into my Fanny Pack? All of them were used to deal with so many important figures that we couldn’t afford to offend! Otherwise, how could the Red Creek Creek Creek project fall into the hands of you and Me?

“The problem is, is this something that can be brought out and said?

“As the saying goes, one has to admit defeat when one is willing to bet. If one wants to be a thief and eat meat, one has to have the awareness to stand upright and take a beating. If one really creates a huge mess, if you and I don’t take the blame, do you want those big shots who have the ability to control the heavens to take the blame?

“You’re already so old, Old Xue, don’t treat yourself like an old fool. Otherwise, not only will our heads fall to the ground, it might even bring disaster to our families!”

The word ‘family’made engineer Xue’s pupils shrink.

Shen Yuling knew that he had touched the other party’s soft spot. He squeezed out a gloomy smile.

“We have a life-and-death relationship. Old Xue, your family is my family.” Shen Yuling hugged engineer Xue’s shoulder again and said, “I remember that your eldest son is about to break through to the heavenly state, right?” Engineer Xue nodded with a wooden expression.

“It’s not easy to break through to the Heavenly State!”

Shen Yulin sighed, “Back then, I had the support of the entire family. I didn’t know how many resources I had to expend before I managed to break through to the heavenly state. If I wasn’t a disciple of the Shen family, I’m afraid that even if I put in a hundred times more effort and a hundred times more luck, it wouldn’t be so simple to grasp the power of reaching the heavens!

“However, after the Battle of the beasts, there were more and more extraordinary people in Dragon City. The competition was getting more and more intense. The low-level extraordinary people were becoming less and less valuable.

“In the past, an Earth realm expert might have been able to find a stable job that paid well. He could enjoy the flowers, applause, Cheers, and the envious and admiring gazes.

“But today, if I can’t break through to the heavenly state, I’m nothing. Even the peak of the Earth realm is just a small trick that the experts can order me around.

“If you want to break through to the heaven realm, other than the support of a huge amount of resources, what is the most important thing? A state of mind! A relaxed, calm, and stable state of mind!

“Old Xue, think about it. At the crucial moment when our little brother Xue is about to break through to the heaven realm, such a huge scandal would break out from his father. Putting aside whether or not he would be able to obtain the cultivation resources from the universal group unconditionally, just his state of mind collapsing would be enough to drive him crazy and cause him to explode.”

Engineer Xue trembled even more violently.

This time, it was no longer anger.

It was fear that seeped deep into his bones.

“And your grandson.”

Shen Yuling was still unwilling to let go of the thin and small prospector who was trembling like a withered leaf in the autumn wind. He continued, “I remember that your grandson is still in middle school. Has He not awakened his extraordinary power yet?”.

Engineer Xue swallowed several mouthfuls of saliva before he said hoarsely, “No.”
