In a lunatic concentration camp like Sanctuary 3, he could sneak into the upper echelons of the asylum and even become the second-in-command of the faction.
Shen Yuzhou really relies on his father.
However, after so many years of experience, he also has two skills.
Therefore, although Shen Yuzhou was extremely tempted by Qiu Tu's conditions, he was still wary and did not agree hastily.
He adjusted his gold-rimmed glasses, then looked at Qiu Tu, and continued to test, "If I remember correctly."
“President Qiu’s path to disaster is “order-politics.”
"This path seems to require official positions. If you could just give up control of the 6th and 7th shelters, wouldn't your strength regress?"
Qiu Tu's catastrophic path has been no secret among the top management of major shelters for a long time. Therefore, Qiu Tu was not surprised.
Even Shen Yuzhou's questions were within his expectation.
Therefore, he looked at Shen Yuzhou and said sincerely, "Chairman Shen is right. My path to disaster is indeed "order-politics."
"Besides, I do need an "official position" to ensure that my strength does not decline."
Seeing Shen Yuzhou nodding, Qiu Tu changed his tone and said, "But... major shelters are not the only ones with official positions."
Shen Yuzhou was stunned for a moment, and the next second, he immediately reacted.
He pointed to the sky, "World official position?"
Qiu Tu smiled and nodded, "Yes. World official positions are also official positions. I own the territory of Kyushu. As long as I am independent, I can be promoted."
"What's more, I actually have an additional condition for our deal."
Qiu Tu's frankness relieved Shen Yuzhou from a lot of worries.
Now Qiu Tu actually had additional conditions, which immediately relieved him of some worries.
So he leaned back, looked at Qiu Tu, and asked, "What are the additional conditions?"
Qiu Tudao, "I want to be the No. 1 shelter."
Hearing Qiu Tu's words, Shen Yuzhou was stunned for a moment, and then he only had one thought in his mind: That's it?
To be honest, what Qiu Tu is best at and most proficient in is psychology.
Yesterday, he deliberately proposed that he would be the No. 1 shelter. At that time, Shen Yuzhou's first reaction was surprise and opposition.
As a result, because of yesterday's foreshadowing, when Qiu Tu proposed it again today, Shen Yuzhou felt that "the price was too low" and he could easily accept it.
As for why Qiu Tu raised it twice.
This is because his "conditions" these two times are actually different.
Yesterday, when he proposed "being No. 1", he just said it casually, and what he wanted was an attitude.
Shen Yuzhou objected at first, and then verbally agreed under Qiu Tu's pressure, but this actually had little effect.
After the visit of the envoy group is over, Shen Yuzhou can return to the third shelter and refuse to admit his fault. Or he can only let the third shelter come forward to congratulate him without coordinating with other shelters.
You know, although Qiu Tu holds the handle to the third shelter, he has no handle to the other shelters.
Just like Li Feng yesterday, because Qiu Tu had no handle, he or she didn't care about Qiu Tu's attitude at all and directly objected.
At this time, according to normal political practices, Qiu Tu would need to spend real money and all kinds of energy to lobby other forces and gain support.
Then, in turn, they can force or bribe other forces in the sanctuary to make them bow their heads, acknowledge their identity and status, and reach the top of the list.
And because the relationship between Qiu Tu and other shelters is not harmonious, it can only be said to be average. This will cost Qiu Tu a huge price.
Again, Qiu Tu's foundation is too shallow and his momentum is too fast. He has already attracted a lot of criticism for being ranked No. 2.
If you strengthen your position as No. 1 when your footing is unstable, you will need to spend several times, ten times, or even dozens of times the energy and benefits to carry out your rule.
But now, Qiu Tu regards this as an additional condition and gives it to the third shelter, which will instantly save him too much energy and benefits.
What Qiu Tu needed to spend a huge amount of money to accomplish, for the third shelter, was probably just a few phone calls and several communications, very simple.
Sure enough, after hearing Qiu Tu's additional conditions, Shen Yuzhou hesitated for a moment and then said, "I can temporarily accept this additional condition on behalf of the shelter."
Having said this, he paused, "But... the premise is that our transaction can really be established."
This matter was obviously too important. So Shen Yuzhou thought about it and said, "I still need to have a few phone calls with Chairman Xing."
Qiu Tu was not surprised when he heard Shen Yuzhou's words.
To a certain extent, Qiu Tu and No. 3 Sanctuary are "exchanging trump cards."
Qiu Tu used the two shelters he had just controlled in exchange for the peak combat power of the third shelter.
This level of exchange is a huge temptation and pressure for both parties.
Shen Yuzhou did not have the authority to make this decision at all and had to ask for instructions from his superiors.
And even the leader of the "Lawful Faction", No. 1 of the 3rd Sanctuary, Chairman Xing, when faced with such a big matter, will most likely not make a decision on his own, but will have to hold multiple rounds of discussions.
However, during this period of time, Qiu Tu could just improve his strength - he had not practiced well since he became Sanctuary No. 2.
With this in mind, Qiu Tu did not urge Shen Yuzhou, but said frankly, "No problem. Then we will wait for the good news from Chairman Shen."
After hearing Qiu Tu's words, Shen Yuzhou stood up and prepared to contact the third shelter.
As a result, at this moment, Zhu Wu, who had been silent since entering the door, finally spoke.
She raised her face, which looked exactly like Shen Lingshuang's, and blinked curiously, "Dad, I'm going to have a new father, right?"
Shen Yuzhou:
Qiu Tu:
It has to be said that these evil gods are indeed those guys who never stop dying without making any shocking statements.
In this way, after chatting with Shen Yuzhou, Qiu Tu sent Shen Yuzhou and Zhu Wu out of the villa.
The original itinerary for the two of them today was to visit and visit, but looking at it now, they probably weren't in much of a mood.
Watching the two people leave, Qiu Tu stood quietly at the door of the villa for a while, thinking about the reasons why he sold the 6th and 7th shelters to the 3rd shelter.
The reason is actually very simple.
The biggest reason is what Qiu Tu confessed just now: he has grown too fast and his foundation is too shallow.
Now that he is suppressing it in the "Northwestern Region", everything will be fine.
But once he leaves the "Northwest Region" and goes to the "Core Area", with the current strength of his cronies, it is impossible to keep the 6th and 7th shelters.
Not to mention the behemoth of the Kou family, let's just say that Princess Xi, who now occupies great righteousness and is developing rapidly, can also crush Qiu Tu's cronies.
Therefore, instead of letting your cronies confront them head-on, it is better to retreat in time and retain your strength after getting enough benefits.
Leave these two tough bones to Sanctuary 3.
The three major forces are fighting each other, which may create opportunities for Qiu Tu's cronies.
In addition to insufficient foundation, Qiu Tu's second reason for selling the 6th and 7th shelters was Shen Lingshuang.
Shen Lingshuang is one of the women Qiu Tu has the closest relationship with in this world.
The two met in Weimo, and Shen Lingshuang helped Qiu Tu a lot during his development.
Therefore, Shen Lingshuang can be said to be one of the most important people in Qiu Tu's world.
And just like what Xiao Yasha analyzed yesterday: because of the connection between Shen Lingshuang and Zhu Wu, the conflict between Sanctuary 3 and Qiu Tu is almost irreconcilable.
Otherwise, Qiu Tu would give the "key" to the third shelter. Otherwise, he would simply take the "car" as his own.
Obviously, the latter is more acceptable to Qiu Tu.
In addition to these two reasons, there is actually another most important reason. That is the integration of the edge area and the core area!
According to the information provided by Xiao Yasha, in a few months, the "real world" and the "spiritual world" in the "edge area" will be completely merged into one, and will also be promoted to the "core area".
By then, the "Northwestern Region" and the "Western Kingdom" will also be completely integrated.
By then, there will be no more barriers from the "isolating mountains" and no restrictions on strength. All forces in the "Western Kingdom" will inevitably invade the "Northwest Region".
At that time, it wasn't just like the "Kirigakure Club" who was just making small fuss and dispatching one or two regional leaders to take charge here.
And it will turn into an all-out war!
At this time, the entire "Northwest Region" will definitely turn into a mess.
"The Kingdom of the West" not only has ninth-level gods, but also masters like seventh-level and eighth-level masters.
Qiu Tu didn't think he could protect three shelters at that time.
Therefore, it is the best choice to shrink the front line, get rid of the burden, and let the third shelter stand in the front.
Of course, this is the most extreme situation deduced by Qiu Tu.
It would be better if the various forces in the "Kingdom of the West" did not come to invade the "Northwest Region" forcefully!
Half a year later, Qiu Tu will most likely be in the middle of Level 7, or even the peak of Level 7.
When the "Isolation Mountains" collapse and the "Northwestern Region" merges with the "Core Region", Qiu Tu, who is extremely powerful, can stage a return of the king.
By then, he, Zhao Ji and Zhu Wu, the three 7th and 8th level masters, won't they be able to unify the "Northwest Region"?
You must know that the essence of power actually comes from the game of "violence".
When you have the ability to threaten a person's life and he succumbs to your violence, you actually have "power" over him.
Just like Qiu Tu used violence to make Li Feng and Shen Yuzhou surrender yesterday, then their fate is in Qiu Tu's hands.
To a certain extent, Qiu Tu had the power to dominate them both.
Even if Qiu Tu's strength was blown out by himself, as long as the two of them believed it, they would have transferred their power to Qiu Tu.
As for the "rules" that everyone abides by, they are just the order reflected in the "violent game" that tends to balance.
Therefore, when King Qiu Tu returned, he possessed violence that even the human camp could not control.
Without him having to say anything, the "Northwest Region" would be returned to Qiu Tu intact.
All the construction and development done by the 3rd Sanctuary in the past six months will only be used as a wedding dress for Qiu Tu in the end.
It is precisely because of these many considerations that Qiu Tu decisively took out the 6th and 7th shelters in exchange for "Candle Dance".
To put it bluntly, this is a strategy that kills two birds with one stone.
Moreover, due to the collapse of the "Isolation Mountain Range", the information that the "edge area" will merge with the "core area" within half a year is known only to some evil forces who have experienced the integration.
Therefore, Sanctuary 3 did not know the news.
This also led to them analyzing the flowers and they couldn't figure out why Qiu Tu let them get such a huge advantage for nothing.
This is the importance of intelligence work. This is also the reason why Qiu Tu attaches great importance to intelligence.
——To a certain extent, a piece of key information can be worth five divisions.
Thinking like this, Qiu Tu also gradually retracted his thoughts.
He withdrew his gaze that was neither happy nor sad, then turned around and returned to the villa.
Back in the villa lobby, secretary Tao Yaoyao was already waiting there.
Seeing Qiu Tu returning, Tao Yaoyao quickly stepped forward and whispered, "Speaker, Your Highness La Riluo is here."
"La Riluo?" Qiu Tu was stunned for a moment.
Tao Yaoyao responded, and then said, "She is waiting for you in the study."
Hearing this, Qiu Tu hesitated for a moment, then nodded slightly, and then walked upstairs.
During this period of time, La Riluo has actually been busy. Qiu Tu assigned her a tedious and complicated task - to build a "regional passage" in the "Boundless Heart Sea Area" of the three major shelters.
Because of the resource support of the three major shelters, several cities in the four prefectures of Dongye are now connected to the 6th and 7th shelters, allowing for rapid transfer.
This project, including Qiu Tu asking Guan Xiao to establish an intelligence system not long ago, are actually preparations for the future recovery of the 6th and 7th Asylums.
Now that La Riluo has returned, everything should be finished.
With this in mind, Qiu Tu also stepped into the study.
The next second, Qiu Tu felt his eyes blur, and then a fragrant figure jumped on him.
Qiu Tu stretched out his hand to hold the figure's buttocks, and then the figure laughed like a silver bell, "Giggle, my Lord Pope, have you missed me?"
Qiu Tu smiled and said, "Your Highness, you are naughty again."
Obviously, the one who jumped on Qiu Tu was the evil girl La Riluo.
Holding La Riluo in his arms and closing the door of the study, Qiu Tu came to the desk with La Riluo in his arms.
Putting her on the desk, Qiu Tu touched her head and asked, "Have the passages been built?"
La Riluo rubbed Qiu Tu's hand with some enjoyment, and then said, "Actually, I built everything in the past two days."
"Oh?" Hearing La Riluo's words, Qiu Tu couldn't help but be a little curious, "Then why didn't you come to see me two days ago?"
Hearing this, La Riluo lowered her head and said mysteriously, "Of course it's because I went to get you a gift."
"A gift?" Qiu Tu asked, "What gift?"
Seeing that Qiu Tu's curiosity was aroused, the evil girl smiled "hehe", then opened her own dimensional space and took out a pack of shimmering seeds from it.
The seed looks about the size of a pea, but is flat. It is earthy yellow in color, but its smell is very strong.
Qiu Tu looked at these seeds a little strangely, and then asked curiously, "What is this?"
La Riluo raised her head slightly and said with a proud look on her face, "This is called "Dragon Vein Seed", which is a very precious disaster material. I went to the "core area" to buy it."
Qiu Tu blinked, a little confused.
La Riluo said, "Didn't you get promoted to level 6? After promotion, you need to build your area and refine your area, right?"
Qiu Tu nodded.
La Riluo raised the seed in her hand and said, "This seed is called "Dragon Vein Seed". It can not only help you build your area, but also speed up the refining of your area."
She said, "This seed may not look small, but its effect is actually very powerful."
"You just put your breath into the seed and then sow it into the area."
"This kind of seed will take root and sprout, spreading your breath to the entire area one by one."
"If you want to refine this area later, as long as your mind moves, the entire area will almost resonate with you."
"At this time, your refining efficiency will be able to get twice the result with half the effort."
Speaking of this, La Riluo thought for a while, and then added, "This is a precious disaster material that can only be used by the children of some big families and core members of big organizations in the "Boundless Heart Sea-Core Area"! It's priceless!"
Before listening to La Riluo's popular science, Qiu Tu actually didn't know much about this "dragon vein species". He didn't know how precious it was.
But La Riluo's example immediately made Qiu Tu understand the value of this thing.
So Qiu Tu reached out and took the "Dragon Vein Seed" and asked in surprise,
"Where did you get so many "Infinite Divine Crystals" to buy this level of heavenly materials and earthly treasures? You didn't go to the "core area" to get credit, and you still need to pay me back, right?"
Hearing Qiu Tu's words, La Riluo raised her head proudly and said with a smile, "Don't worry, I'm not in the habit of doing things on credit."
"I really bought this "Dragon Vein Seed", the full price, and I didn't let my sister get a piece of "Infinite Divine Crystal""
Qiu Tu:?
Qiu Tu glanced at La Riluo and said, "Wait a minute, did your sister buy it for me?"
La Riluo shook her head, "How is that possible? My sister is so picky, how could she buy it for you? I bought it for you without telling her."
Qiu Tu:??
Later, I spent Zhao Ji's "Infinite Divine Crystal", but if I kept it from Zhao Ji, wasn't it just fucking stealing?
Steal Zhao Ji's "money" to support yourself?
Qiu Tu felt that La Riluo was getting bolder and bolder now.
Moreover, this "Dragon Vein Seed" is obviously worth a lot of money. If you want to buy it, it is definitely not a small amount.
La Riluo most likely took away Zhao Ji's small treasury, and probably sold Zhao Ji's small treasury for a fortune to get enough money.
Thinking like this, Qiu Tu couldn't help but glance at La Riluo in front of him.
Sure enough, when the child grew up, he no longer cared about his sister's slap.
I don’t know how angry Zhao Ji will be when she finds out. Half a year later, she won’t slap La Riluo to death, right?
