Chapter 8 Signing a Contract
"Research has long shown that only the union of evolvers and evolvers can guarantee that their offspring will be evolvers, so evolvers generally don't choose ordinary people. For an evolver family with a rich background like the Fu family, if you want to be with Fu Chenyue, becoming an evolver is just the basic requirement."
Regarding this unexpected entry point, Hua's clear and pure eyes were filled with resistance to this cruel fact.
He lowered his head and no longer looked at Lin Xuan.
"When I looked at your information earlier, I thought you were 18 years old. Now I know it's one year older, so your chances are even better."
Lin Xuan understands the art of speaking.
It is a way of first criticizing and then praising, and the blank space is left to arouse the imagination.
Hua Si is also a competent supporting actor.
She immediately looked up, her eyes sparkling with hope, which then slowly dimmed. Her voice was mixed with seven parts of expectation and three parts of disbelief:
"what chance?"
The girl's expression of fear that her hopes would be shattered and that her beautiful dream would end was really pitiful, so Lin Xuan didn't keep her in suspense any longer.
"You should have taken the attributeless evolution potion, right?"
The flowers seem to nod.
Others were fine after taking it, but she was in excruciating pain.
At first, seeing her intimidating posture, the Fu family thought she was a genius who had awakened on her own.
Nothing happened.
The first test was even more shocking: evolutionary potential: 0.
"You've been in the Fu family for so long, you should know very well how many D- and C-level evolvers these old-line evolver families in Huadu City can produce every year during the Awakening Day. Not to mention the ordinary people who buy the attributeless E-level evolutionary agent at a high price just to activate their evolutionary potential, just compare it with those families where both parties are evolvers."
"The ratio of these old-line families producing mid-level evolvers is almost 100%, but for those ordinary families where both sides are evolvers, the ratio is less than 50%. I think you should know the reason behind this."
Hua Si has been living in the Fu family since she was nine years old. She knows that these old-school evolutionary families give their children evolutionary agents every year.
The price of any attributeless E-level evolution agent is at least 10 Alliance Coins.
"For ordinary people and ordinary evolvers' families, they may need to mobilize the whole family, or even go bankrupt, to buy a bottle of evolution agent. For us, the children of noble families, we only need to buy one bottle every year before awakening, and drink it like water after awakening."
Drinking it like water is of course an exaggeration.
However, for those children of aristocratic families, after awakening, there is still potential for promotion.
Lin Xuan is just describing the facts.
"Many people think this is unfair, including some high-level evolvers who were born ordinary. But those who think so should think about this question: Why do they think they can catch up with the accumulation of several or even dozens of generations of our hard work after just a few decades of hard work?"
Many of these old families were already chaebols 150 years ago, before the appearance of the Evolvers.
Almost all of those that remain now are giants that survived a round of bloody and brutal reshuffle during that turmoil.
After a hundred years of development, the barriers that once separated them from ordinary people have now become an insurmountable chasm.
"If you want to be with Fu Chenyue, you should also consider what you are willing to give in exchange for narrowing the gap between you two? And what is your reason?"
Lin Xuan pointed at the contract in front of Hua Si and said, "Signing you is indeed a way to sell dog meat under the guise of sheep. This is also your greatest value, but we have also shown great sincerity. This is a chance that may make you become an Evolver. You can take a good look at the contract."
Hua seemed to be obediently looking through the contract.
Just as Lin Xuan said, one of them was to provide her with a C-level attributeless evolution agent that ordinary people could take.
Although Hua Si doesn't know the specific price of this evolution agent.
But you know that the price of evolution agent will increase exponentially with each level difference, not to mention that ordinary people can also take this evolution agent.
I guess this is what makes this evolution agent so valuable.
However, Hua's attention was not on this attributeless evolutionary agent, but on the time conditions for giving this evolutionary agent.
Relevant reports on Party B will be delivered within three working days after publication.
This condition seems reasonable.
If you are not careful, you will see it at a glance, but this simple condition is the real pitfall.
In an instant, the flower seemed to understand.
It seems that Lin Xuan has already made her purpose clear, and even provided a bait that is enough to shake Fu Chenyue even though she is in love and knows that signing the contract will definitely make her unhappy.
But, she is still just Plan B.
They wanted to use the contract she signed to force Fu Chenyue to sign the contract herself!
This condition allowed them to attack or defend. Perhaps, she was not even Plan B.
She is just a small chess piece.
However, these days, who hasn’t been used as a pawn by someone else?
Hua Si's face perfectly depicts a girl who is in a state of surprise, confusion, and inner wavering.
Lin Xuan was very satisfied with Huasi's reaction and pretended to check the time:
"The C-level evolutionary agent that ordinary people can take is even more difficult to obtain than the A-level evolutionary agent. Even if the Fu family has it, they probably won't give it to you. Do you want to fight alongside him, or do you want to just chase after him forever? I'm a senior staff member of the Star Newspaper, and I'll be leaving for a while. You still have some time to think about it."
After saying that, Lin Xuan prepared to leave.
When she reached the door, she suddenly turned around and gave the flower a final blow:
"Oh, I forgot to tell you that although I haven't contacted Master Fu, I know where he has been these days. He left the birthday party of the daughter of the Xu family and went directly to the Peace Battlefield. It is very dangerous there. We can only inform him of what is happening here after he comes out."
This paragraph sounds like just a statement of information.
It is also a reminder that she and Fu Chenyue are from two different worlds.
During the days when she couldn't contact him, she didn't even have the right to set foot in the places he went.
But before that, it was said that the staff were leaving.
Psychologically, she artificially created a sense of urgency. Even though she hadn't made any decision yet, she had already experienced loss aversion in advance.
I feel like this store will soon be gone.
Lin Xuan's hand has already touched the door handle.
Seeing that the atmosphere was getting so heated, Hua Si quickly stopped the person and said, "Wait, I am willing to sign! But I have one condition."
Lin Xuan had a gentle smile on her face: "You say."
"I want 90% of the revenue share, otherwise I won't sign the contract."
Unlike before, when Hua Si acted soft and easy to talk to, Lin Xuan saw the determination in Hua Si's eyes this time.
The girl's eyes told her: If you don't agree, there's no point in talking.
The smile on Lin Xuan's lips gradually froze.
Although she was only a freelance writer for the Star, she knew that in the entertainment section of the Star, the highest share of the contract for an A-level evolver was only seven percent.
The question is, the top human combat power is only this number.
Don’t underestimate 70%. The number of daily active users of The Star is in the billions every day.
How dare this little girl!
Originally, I heard from Mr. Xie that no matter whether Fu Chenyue agreed in the end, he would not ask anyone to write a fancy report, which meant that she would not be able to get the evolution agent.
Lin Xuan also felt sympathy for the little girl.
As a result, what Mr. Xie said was right, scammers can’t cheat honest people!
She shouldn't have complained about victim blaming.
"I can't make the decision on this. I have to ask that senior salesperson." Suddenly, Lin Xuan thought of something and pointed at Huasi: "Do you know who is living in the other ward on this floor?"
Hua nodded shyly, then shook her head:
"I saw the Lord of Yancheng City, and I thought the people inside must be very powerful. I also heard the footsteps of my sister leaving before. She didn't go to the elevator, but went over there. You came back with this." Hua Si picked up the contract: "So, who is the person from the Star Newspaper living in that room? Is he very powerful? Can I visit him after signing the contract?"
Lin Xuan didn't want to bother with Hua Si anymore and left the ward immediately.
Ten minutes later.
A new contract, redrafted according to Huasi's requirements, was placed in front of her.
She saw the signature column for Party A, and saw a signature that looked like a 2 and an a.
Hua didn't seem to think much about it.
After all, the information she had about the evolvers in her mind was not as much as what she knew about the Fu family’s preferences.
After signing her name, Lin Xuan scanned the electronic version, left the paper version to Hua Si, copied the electronic version to her, and left again.
Holding two newly-issued contracts.
Hua seems to be much more at ease.
The feeling that there were always villains trying to murder her was also reduced a lot.
Strangely, it seemed that after selling herself, her sense of security increased.
