Taihang Mountains.
On a rooftop in a nearby city.
Shen Ping looked at the words displayed in the virtual frame, a smile playing on his lips. After selling Lord-level monster materials to the military supply base twice, the news had fermented, and as he predicted, he received a family reputation reward, and it was a minor one at that.
Claim.
As he silently thought.
Immediately, a box containing the essence of vegetation floated before his eyes, and at the same time, a large amount of saber technique insights and experience, along with the profound essence of the seventh level of Ninefold Thunder Blade, appeared in his mind.
He put away the box.
Taking out his binoculars, he looked at the roaring Iron-backed Sword Dragon in the distance and muttered, "Since I'm going to hunt a Lord-level monster anyway, I'll use you to practice my newly acquired saber technique!"
Whoosh.
He leaped out, instantly weaving back and forth between the city buildings. Each time Shen Ping flashed, a huge roar like that of an airplane echoed through the air—the sonic boom of supersonic speed.
The Iron-backed Sword Dragon's indifferent eyes turned. Just as it caught sight of Shen Ping, a saber light struck its body. The seventh level of Ninefold Thunder Blade had a 5.6 times force burst, and combined with his physical quality, this strike exceeded a million kilograms of impact force.
Even the massive Lord-level monster couldn't withstand it, its body recoiling from the shock.
Roar!
The Iron-backed Sword Dragon let out an angry roar, its massive and heavy tail sweeping fiercely towards Shen Ping. The tail was very fast, but unfortunately, against an intention-level perfected movement technique, the tail couldn't touch him at all.
Because he wanted to master the saber technique, Shen Ping was not in a hurry to kill this Lord-level monster. Relying on his movement speed, he fought back and forth with it.
It must be said that fighting monsters was much more efficient for mastering saber techniques than simply training in the villa's martial arts hall. In just one morning, he had mastered about seventy to eighty percent of it.
After staying in the Taihang Mountains for another ten days and continuously killing four or five high-level Lord-level monsters, he had completely mastered the rewarded saber technique.
On the train back to Base City.
Shen Ping's black god suit, disguised as a combat backpack, was bulging. Other martial artists nearby were used to this; although monster materials could also be processed at the military supply base, most martial artists would return to Base City to sell some of the more valuable materials.
"I can now be considered an invincible God of War, but exposing my strength still needs to be done step by step; I can't rush it."
He got off the train.
He went straight to the company and put the monster materials into the rented warehouse.
Employee Xiao Jiang counted them and reported, "Boss, these materials are worth about 4.5 billion chinese yuan this time. In addition, the company acquired over 1 billion chinese yuan worth of monster materials this month. The total value of all materials in the warehouse is now 5.5 billion chinese yuan."
Shen Ping couldn't help but be surprised, "Is there a big order?"
Xiao Jiang hurriedly said, "It's the two new managers; each acquired about 300 million worth of materials. The rest were acquired by Manager Yan and the company's other employees."
Hearing this.
Shen Ping's face showed satisfaction, "Not bad, with the company's reputation growing, there will be more and more orders like this in the future."
In the past, Pingwei Materials Company's monthly acquisition of monster materials worth tens of millions was considered good performance. Now, it had a transaction volume of over 100 million. Although the actual profit wasn't much, this undoubtedly showed that the company was developing.
After returning to the office.
His wife Li Yuewei and Secretary Lin were not there. He heard from a manager that a batch of weapons had some issues, and they had gone to handle them.
He called to ask and only relaxed after confirming there were no major problems.
"According to previous speculation, if the company's annual profit reaches ten billion, there might be a major level family reward. As of this year, including this harvest, the total profit has already reached five billion chinese yuan. Another five billion might bring an industry reward."
He looked at the accounts on the laptop on his desk.
Shen Ping pondered. He planned to stay home for three months, then go to the Wilderness Area, and complete fifty billion in material profit in one trip.
In fact, as an invincible God of War, earning hundreds of billions annually is considered little. A single high-level Lord-level monster is worth nearly ten billion. Hunting two in a year would earn over ten billion. If it were a councilor-level, they would earn even more, but at the councilor-level, they generally don't care about money; what they pursue are natural treasures like the essence of vegetation and mu ya crystal.
Around eight in the evening.
Shen Ping and Li Yuewei got off work.
After showering back at the villa, the two lay down on the bed.
After a month of holding back.
Like dry tinder and a raging fire, they ignited instantly. Having been married for three years, they were already intimately familiar with each other's bodies. After sparks flew, they embraced directly.
After their activity.
Li Yuewei brought up a serious matter, "Honey, recently some investment companies have approached us, wanting to invest a sum of money to help the company develop quickly. Should we engage with them?"
"Investment companies?"
Shen Ping was startled. During the early period of the Great Nirvana, the situation was unstable, and daily life was under military control. But with the opening of the Dojo of Limits and Thunder Martial Hall, coupled with the Five Great Powers gradually stabilizing the situation, the domestic economic environment began to recover. The fastest developing areas were weapons and materials, while investment companies only became active again in the last three to four years.
It was normal for them to be interested in Pingwei Materials Company.
"The company's scale has just expanded, and we are not short of funds for now. There's no need to engage with them yet; we can consider it later."
He pondered for a moment before replying.
Li Yuewei nodded and continued, "There's another thing. A few days ago, the Zheng family sent someone over, saying they wanted to meet you."
After speaking, she said worriedly, "The Zheng family is a large financial group in Hua Zhong Base City, with deep foundations. They are involved in nearly one-fifth of various industries within the Base City. This meeting, could it be that they want to acquire our company?"
Shen Ping chuckled, "Don't worry, the Zheng family doesn't have such a big appetite yet. Tomorrow, have Secretary Lin go and ask, set a time, and I'll meet with the Zheng family. They probably want to win us over."
Pingwei Materials Company's development momentum was very strong, especially after cooperating with the HR Alliance, it entered the sight of many forces in the Base City. The Zheng family's request for a meeting was not unexpected. Of course, their main purpose was the mid-level God of War behind him.
As for the company's profits, to be honest, the Zheng family didn't care for them.
After discussing matters.
Li Yuewei, nestled in Shen Ping's arms, reached into the quilt and became restless. While moving around, she said, "Xiao Yin's school will be on holiday in May, honey. Do you think we should let her come and stay for a while? Last year, when she was at home, I saw that you were quite uncomfortable."
Shen Ping's desire gradually surged.
He turned over and said, "Wife, you decide; I don't care."
Li Yuewei's tongue slid across her lips, staring at Shen Ping with a smile, "They say a man's words are a devil's lies. Honey, you probably can't wait for Xiao Yin to come over, right? The moment I mentioned her, your reaction was strong… Ah, look, so strong."
Soon.
His wife couldn't even speak.
Only the most primal sounds echoed throughout the master bedroom.
