The so-called human nature is nothing more than seeking profit and avoiding harm.

In the face of the huge pressure of survival, morality, justice, and belief are like charcoal fire in the wind, quickly fading away their luster and giving way to the lowest needs of human nature.

People have the instinct to follow the herd. Under the guidance of this instinct, the more people there are, the more they are.

Zhang Yuan took the opportunity to blackmail. In order to survive without more choices, the residents in the cabin gradually became more accepting. However, when Wang Ling took out his gun and hijacked Zhang Yuan, everyone immediately had a new choice.

In this choice, they can immediately qualify for survival in a minimally cost way by just turning a blind eye to certain morals.

It is obvious that in this choice, the morality of fair trade was instantly crushed into powder.

Aridland was so anxious that he knew Zhang Yuan better than everyone else. He knew that Zhang Yuan was far less simple than he seemed on the surface, and even Lord Marlan couldn't see through him.

Will such a guy be easily hijacked? Stop being funny!

He waved his arms and shouted: "Wang Ling, do you know what you are doing? If Mr. Zhang is unwilling to help, do you think a gun can force him to submit?"

"A talkative coward!"

Wang Ling suddenly turned the gun and pulled the launch button at Aridan's thigh. A light blue energy beam flashed and shot directly at Aridan's thigh.

At this moment, Zhang Yuan, who had not moved, suddenly stretched out his hand, and his arm was blocking the way of the energy beam.

"Bang~" Fire splashed everywhere, and the energy beam disappeared. A layer of gloss like glaze appeared on Zhang Yuan's body. After about 2 seconds, the gloss disappeared again, and his arms were not damaged at all.

Wang Ling was shocked and immediately turned the gun and wanted to continue shooting at Zhang Yuan.

As a result, before his fingers pressed the button, a black shadow flashed in front of him, and then he felt his wrist numb. Then he saw that his energy gun actually landed in Zhang Yuan's hand.

"Hehe, a gun is a good gun, but unfortunately, people who use it have a bad brain."

Zhang Yuan played with the gun for a while, then pinned the energy gun on his waist: "Aridlan, how is the property of Wang Ling's family?"

Aridan felt sweaty on his forehead, so he reached out to wipe it and said, "He is the son of the chairman of a heat-resistant alloy material company. He himself owns about 4% of the original shares of the company, worth about 3.7 billion Star Shield."

"3.7 billion? Well, that's not bad." Zhang Yuan nodded repeatedly and said to Wang Ling: "I'm very unhappy when you tried to kill me just now. So you have two choices, either buy me 3.7 billion, or I'll shoot you with a tooth. What do you think?"

Wang Ling is not a kind-hearted master. As soon as the energy gun was taken away, he became weak. He heard Zhang Yuan say this, his face immediately turned ashen, but it did not explode. After being silent for about 3 seconds, he gritted his teeth and said, "If you don't kill me, you will definitely regret it in the future!"

"Then what you mean is, are you willing to give money?" Zhang Yuan asked.

"Hmph!" Wang Ling turned his head and did not look at Zhang Yuan.

"Haha, it's not bad, a master of the times." Zhang Yuan was not angry at all. In his eyes, this young man was no different from a baby who was learning toddler in Yaya, so he naturally wouldn't be angry with a baby.

Waving his hand and asking Wang Ling to retreat, Zhang Yuan turned around and continued, "Do you think there is any problem with my approach just now?"

No one answered.

Zhang Yuan then pointed a white-haired old man: "Tell me, let me see."

The old man smiled awkwardly: "No problem...hehe...very fair."

His own way of life is in the hands of the other party, and the other party cannot hijack it yet. How can people refute his words? Isn’t this bullying?

Zhang Yuan raised the volume again: "I am not greedy. Each of you, as long as you give me 98% of my property, I will help you overcome the difficulties!"

Everyone looked bitter, 98%, not greedy, his face was as thick as a city wall, but no one stood up to refute it.

Because they have no other choice.

Zhang Yuan laughed and said to Aridland beside him: "Dran, I don't know much about the property situation of these people at the moment. So please help me count it. Remember, don't make mistakes. If I find that you have calculated the wrong thing in the future and asked me to take less money, then I will cause trouble for you."

Aridland's tears were about to come down.

If he really did what Zhang Yuan said, he would offend everyone here today. Many of the people here are his business partners, and some of them are his connections in politics. His interstellar trade can reach this point, all depends on mutual assistance and mutual benefit with these people. If he offends them, he will not be able to mess around in the future.

But if he didn't help Zhang Yuan counting, he would offend Zhang Yuan very much. Judging from the guy's expression when he fired, he was sure that this guy must be a ruthless person. If he offended him, he would probably die.

After weighing the pros and cons, Aridland sighed and bowed to everyone in the cabin: "Everyone, I was forced to do it too, and I offended today."

When Aridland said this, a few old men with gray hair in the crowd sighed and were depressed.

Originally, he wanted to bully the layman and conceal his property, but when this young man did this, their methods were useless. Aridland was like a monkey, and he was a person in the circle. Everyone had a rough understanding of what the situation was, but they could not hide it at all.

Aridland had a bitter face and began to count the property of various wealthy people one by one.

Zhang Yuan sat on the virtual fort, holding a glass of wine that Old Tony had given him in his hand, and sipped it in small sips. He was happy to drink it. He said to Old Tony: "Old guy, your wine is authentic. You made two glasses of wine for me, and I will receive you 2 million less star shield later."

The folds on the old Tony's face suddenly smiled like anus. He walked to Zhang Yuan and whispered: "Mr. Zhang, if I help you check for the missing items in Delan's account book later, what reward will there be?"

"Hehehe, then I will make up for you 100 million!" Zhang Yuan said with a smile.

Old Tony immediately patted his chest and promised: "Hey~ Then don't worry, my old Tony has been in the business world for 30 years and has seen the prosperity of the world. What family background does this group of people have? How much private money has they hidden? I'll be clear to you. Look, I will definitely snatch 3 billion star shields for you later!"

Zhang Yuan exclaimed: "Tsk tsk, old guy, are you afraid of being retaliated against by these guys in the future?"

Old Tony laughed: "What's so scary about this? I have 100 million star shields, but they are still rich. But they have nothing. They should be afraid of me, haha."

"These people are all outstanding people, and there will always be someone who will make a comeback in the future."

"That's okay. My old man has been alive for a few years. When they make a comeback, I'll be done."

“…”

Zhang Yuan has seen it, this guy is really cunning!

About an hour later, Aridan came back with the account book. According to the account book, the total property of more than 600 rich people was 723.2 billion star shields, and he also brought 1.7 billion yuan in cash, all of which were golden star shields used for large-scale settlements between the stars. One was one million star shields, a total of 1,700. Each one was shining with an attractive pure spirit.

Then, Old Tony took the account book and walked around the crowd. After he came back, the number on the account book became 733.9 billion star shields, an increase of 10 billion out of thin air.

Of course, Old Tony instantly gained countless hatred gazes.

As for Zhang Yuan, spending 100 million yuan in costs and getting 10 billion yuan in profits is a big profit no matter how you calculate it.

Putting away the account book and cash, Zhang Yuan smiled and said, "Everyone, I want to ask you, what are we most lacking now?"

"It's energy!" Old Tony immediately took on Zhang Yuan's question.

"Yes, it's energy. Without the warmth of energy, we will be frozen into floating corpses in this cold and dark universe, and the survival system will become invalid, and the air, water, and food will all disappear. But now, given your generosity, I am willing to share with you the energy I have."

As hundreds of people looked at him, Zhang Yuan raised his hand, and his wrist was the space folding bracelet. He reached in and pulled out, and a square, gray metal box fell out and landed on the ground.

This is exactly the super energy core created by Zhang Yuan to escape the Golden Heavenly Realm, with about 39% of the energy left in it.

Everyone's eyes moved with the metal box. When they saw the box clearly, there was confusion in their eyes.

They spent more than 700 billion star shields to buy such a metal box? This is probably the most expensive box in the place where stars shine.

"I know you have doubts, and I know that this thing is indeed a little ugly, but I promise that it will never disappoint you! Nightingale, adapted to this energy core."

While speaking, Zhang Yuan jumped off the metal pole of the virtual gun mount and quickly pressed a few times on a small control screen on the surface of the box. He was adjusting the control chip on the energy core to assign connection permissions to the Nightingale.

“Adapting…”

Under the control of the main control brain, a metal bracket immediately rose on the ground to stabilize the energy core, and then several energy conduits extended out to connect the energy output port. About 3 minutes later, the nightingale made a sound.

"The adaptation was completed and the new energy was detected. The total energy contained is 12 times that of the original energy core. The current energy is extremely abundant!"

"Hu~~~~" Everyone in the cabin breathed a sigh of relief.

The energy in this small box is actually 12 times that of the original energy core, and this energy is indeed abundant and no longer sufficient.

The pressure of death dissipated instantly, and everyone felt a sense of gratitude for surviving the disaster. As for the lost money, it seemed that it was not so difficult to accept when looking back at this time.

Zhang Yuan smiled and added a sentence at the right time: "Remember, although I have no control over the Nightingale, I can control the energy core. If something happens to me, the energy core will self-destruct."

“…”

This sentence completely dispelled the dark thoughts in some people's minds.

Old Tony and Aridland both quietly gave Zhang Yuan a thumbs up. Zhang Yuan not only squeezed out a huge amount of money, but also could lie on the money and sleep well. This method is really amazing!

"Huh?" Zhang Yuan's eyes were suddenly attracted by the holographic images in the center of the cabin.

Aridland followed his gaze and after a few seconds, he shivered suddenly and almost collapsed to the ground.

On the holographic image, a small white dot appeared. The distance between this dot is about 1 light minute from the spacecraft and is on the edge of the display of the holographic image of the spacecraft.

Looking closely at the appearance of the white dot, it was a warship. From the direction the little dot was chasing, it coincided with the fall of the Nightingale.

The situation was obvious. The bubble monster that had been broken before condensed again and chased the spacecraft.
Chapter completed!
