Chapter 1169 Distributing The Money
The villagers could not tell if Alex was telling the truth as they whispered and discussed with one another.
Seeing the villagers were still hesitant, Alex took the Black Card from Global Bank out of his pocket and said, “I am the chairman of Four Seas Corporation in Nebula City. I’ve bought snapdragon before, so I know what it looks like. The herb is a faint golden hue, so the pills made from it should still be golden, not completely black.”
There were some people in the crowd who worked at the bank. When they saw the card in Yu Sheng’s hand, their eyes lit up, and they excitedly asked, “Do you really think the chairman of a large corporation like Four Seas Corporation would need to come here just to deceive you?”
Someone else said. “I work at a bank as the director. I know this card. It’s a Black Card from Global Bank. There are only a hundred of them worldwide. That’s because the people who possess this card are wealthy or influential and have a minimum of ten billion in assets. Hence, it’s definitely true that he’s the chairman of Four Seas Corporation. A big shot like him has no reason to lie to us! Could Master Lincoln really be a
fraud?”
Ten billion in assets was simply an astronomical figure for the people in the small village. It was an amount they didn’t even dare to imagine.
Among the villagers, a small business owner stared at his own ATM card. The three hundred thousand in my -bank account doesn’t seem so appealing anymore.
Lincoln noticed the unfavorable situation and realized the villagers would no longer believe anything he said. After all, Alex had revealed his identity.
Hence, he shot a look at his four disciples below the stage. They immediately tried to slip away without caring about the pills on the table. After all, those pills only cost a few dozen, so losing them wouldn’t. cause any significant loss.
Alex kept a close eye on Lincoln. He grabbed Lincoln’s shirt when he noticed the latter was trying to escape and said coldly, “Master Lincoln, where do you think you’re going?”
Lincoln didn’t expect to be caught by Alex just as he started to move. His intention to flee was immediately extinguished. He awkwardly laughed and said, “Young man, I know you’re very powerful, but is there a need for you to push me into a corner? Besides, the pills I sell aren’t harmful”.
Alex scoffed and smacked Lincoln’s head. “Just because it isn’t harmful doesn’t mean you can deceive. people like this. That young man earlier was almost burned to death by you. Don’t you feel guilty at all? As a fellow cultivator, how dare you use such despicable means to accumulate wealth? I shall teach you a lesson today.”
Lincoln rubbed the back of his head and replied aggrievedly, “Young man, can’t I just compensate the guy from before for his medical expenses? Please, I beg you, let me off the hook this time!”
If Lincoln’s pills could truly endanger people, Alex would never let him off the hook. However, since Lincoln apologized sincerely, Alex decided not to punish him severely.
“Hand over the money you’ve swindled from everyone in the village. Do you want me to help you. with that, or will you obediently take it out yourself?” Alex asked with a smile.
Lincoln subconsciously gulped when he saw the sly grin on Alex’s lips. How can this young man’s smile be so unsettling? It feels as if he can see right through me.
Lincoln quickly grabbed his pocket, unsure of what choice to make. In terms of strength, he definitely. couldn’t defeat Alex. However, he had earned the money through hard work. It would be all gone if he took it out.
