Chapter 552: Chapter 260 The Second Time Book [10,000 words, asking for monthly passes!]

“Little Mu? Haven’t seen you in days, how have you been lately?” On the phone came the voice of Lu Chengfeng.

“Lord Tower Master, the Youyi Business Association has been making some moves recently, have you heard about it?” Mu Rufeng began.

“The Youyi Business Association? What kind of moves?” The moment Lu Chengfeng heard it was the Youyi Business Association, he became quite serious.

“It’s not convenient to talk over the phone, I wonder if you might have a secure and reliable means of communication,” Mu Rufeng said.

“Where are you now?”

“I’m in Qingshan City.”

“Qingshan City, then you go to Treasure Tower, I will inform the Tower Master of Qingshan City in advance.”

“Alright, Lord Tower Master, I’m on my way now.”

Mu Rufeng hung up the phone and immediately left. He didn’t go out to call a taxi; instead, he summoned the hotel directly to send him to Treasure Tower with the hotel’s private car.

The distance wasn’t far; it took only about ten minutes for Mu Rufeng to arrive at Treasure Tower.

As soon as Mu Rufeng entered, an employee led him to the Tower Master’s office.

“Hello, you must be Mr. Mu, I am Sun Wu, the Tower Master of Qingshan City’s branch. The Tower Master has already informed me, I will connect your communication right away.”

Sun Wu immediately pressed a button on the desk.

Suddenly, a virtual screen appeared in front of them.

In no time, the figure of Lu Chengfeng appeared on the screen.

“Greetings, Lord Tower Master,” Sun Wu hastily saluted Lu Chengfeng.

“Lord Tower Master,” Mu Rufeng also gave a polite salute.

“Mmm, Sun Wu, you may leave,” Lu Chengfeng nodded slightly, then motioned for Sun Wu to depart.

“Yes, Lord Tower Master,” Sun Wu had no change in his expression, bid farewell, and left the room.

Then, they saw a wisp of black mist emerge from the virtual screen and scan the entire room before enveloping it.

“This is our Treasure Tower’s internal communication device. It won’t be discovered by anyone. You can tell me what you need to now,” Lu Chengfeng said.

They normally used Ghost communication, but when it came to confidential matters, they used specific communication items.

Mu Rufeng immediately retold the matter of the Youyi Business Association’s capital injection into Wangxi’s Choice.

Then he went on to reveal their conspiracy against Crimson Preferred.

“Interesting, the Youyi Business Association has been making little moves in recent years, but they’ve pulled a big one this time. It seems they still want to establish themselves in the East.”

“So, you’re telling me this because you have an idea?” Lu Chengfeng inquired.

“Are they not trying to snipe us in the stock market? I wonder if you’d like to make a gain in the stock market.”

“I’ve prepared ten billion in funds, and Xu He has five billion on his side. He also contacted other groups that have grievances with the Youyi Business Association.”

“If Lord Tower Master joins in as well, we could be much more confident,” Mu Rufeng said.

“Ha ha, such an interesting matter, of course I want to be involved,” Lu Chengfeng laughed and said.

“Thank you, Lord Tower Master. In our plan, I might need to return to the real world to destroy the real-world channels that the Youyi Business Association has opened for Wangxi’s Choice.”

“So I would trouble Lord Tower Master to personally contact Xu He later to discuss the specifics.”

“Since Wangxi’s Choice doesn’t know that we’re aware of their plan, we mustn’t startle the snake in the grass. It would be best to contact covertly. I wonder if you have such an item at your disposal,” Mu Rufeng said.

“Of course, I have one. I’ll go find it later, but Little Mu, I’m actually very curious. How did you find out about the Youyi Business Association’s conspiracy?” Lu Chengfeng asked, his curiosity piqued.

Mu Rufeng thought for a moment and ultimately decided not to hide anything, revealing the name of the Time Book.

“I wonder if you’ve heard of the Time Book?”

The fact that Lu Chengfeng agreed was itself a favor to Mu Rufeng. Make money? Was he in need of money?

At least there had to be an attitude of cooperation in the partnership.

“The Time Book? You have the Time Book too?” When he heard the three words “Time Book,” Lu Chengfeng’s tone shifted slightly.

“Too? Lord Tower Master, do you also have the Time Book at Treasure Tower?”

Lu Chengfeng had accidentally let slip with that “too,” and Mu Rufeng immediately seized on that word.

“Cough cough, yes,” Lu Chengfeng coughed twice and then admitted it.

Truthfully, Lu Chengfeng had thought that only their Treasure Tower possessed the Time Book in the Mysterious World, but he hadn’t expected there to be a second one.

He also knew just how precious the Time Book was, so he had inadvertently let slip the secret upon hearing Mu Rufeng’s words.

“The Time Book is an extremely precious Special Item, formed from the evolution of the World Rules. Does Xu He also know about the existence of the Time Book?” Lu Chengfeng said.

“Yes, after all, if I hadn’t revealed the existence of the Time Book, Xu He would not have believed the news I brought,” Mu Rufeng nodded and said.

“Don’t let a fourth person know about this matter. Later I will have Xu He sign a confidentiality agreement,” Lu Chengfeng said gravely.

“Then thank you, Lord Tower Master,” Mu Rufeng was somewhat surprised, he hadn’t expected Lu Chengfeng to be so willing to help him.

“Speaking of which, I have a small favor to ask,” Lu Chengfeng added.

“Please speak, Lord Tower Master. If it is within my capability, I will do my utmost,” Mu Rufeng said seriously.

“I wonder if you could help me ask the Time Book a question. Rest assured, I won’t let you suffer any losses. I remember you’re in great need of Life Ore, are you not?”
