Universe’s Ultimate BOSS
Chapter Summary
Wang Hao ignored these people and looked at Mai Mengmeng and Qiu Lei beside him, asking in a low voice, "I need the help of Tianhuo Company and the Potion Guild recently. "Then, Commander, what are we going to do about this sale of military ranks?" A middle-aged man said with a look of disgust, "I don't want my younger generation to bow to those commoners." Guan Xinxiong couldn't help but laugh and said, "Since Wang Hao wants to sell military ranks, then let's grant his wish and let those good-f...
Tianbei University, in the square.
The guests sat at the table, all looking dejected and not touching their chopsticks. It wasn't that they didn't want to eat, but rather that they simply couldn't stomach the vegetables.
Wang Hao warmly greeted everyone, "Everyone, eat up! Don't be shy, look how happy my little Bai is eating!"
Little White picked up a carrot and happily ate it, exclaiming, "Carrots are the best!"
The guests' faces darkened. They were people, not rabbits!
Suddenly, the guests snapped out of their daze and all stared at Little White Rabbit. The rabbit had just spoken!
Wang Hao ignored these people and looked at Mai Mengmeng and Qiu Lei beside him, asking in a low voice, "I need the help of Tianhuo Company and the Potion Guild recently. I wonder if you two can make the decision?"
Qiu Lei couldn't help but laugh and said, "You have a business relationship with our Tianhuo Company. If we don't help you, who will we help?!"
Mai Mengmeng nodded repeatedly, "Master and the guild leader both said that Brother Wang Hao's matter is our guild's matter. If you encounter any trouble, just let us know."
Wang Hao nodded in satisfaction, then stood up and said loudly, "As you all have probably heard, I am the newly appointed Fifth Marshal of the military. However, I have no troops under my command, and these ranks are quite disheartening. Therefore, I have decided to hold an auction in three days. Whoever bids the highest will become a Major General, Lieutenant General, or General..."
As soon as he finished speaking, the listless guests instantly perked up, clearly aware of the benefits these military ranks brought.
“Brother Wang Hao, I don’t doubt your position as marshal, but how can you guarantee that our bought-official positions will last long?” a fat man asked.
Hearing this, all the guests stared at Wang Hao expectantly. Although there were many benefits to the official position, they had just been tricked by Wang Hao, so they dared not fail to ask for clarification.
Besides, they had never heard of military ranks being sold.
If they just bought it here, and then the military commander there turns his back on them, who can they complain to?
Even if they went to Wang Hao, what kind of person is Wang Hao? Would he pay any attention to a wealthy person like them who has no power? So they have to find out the truth first.
Wang Hao pointed to Qiu Lei and Mai Mengmeng on either side.
He smiled and said, "I'm telling you all this today because these two people are guaranteeing that even the Commander-in-Chief can't take back these military ranks, so you can buy with confidence."
Qiu Lei rubbed his temples, feeling a headache coming on. Although he knew that Wang Hao was always unconventional, he never expected that this guy would actually dare to sell official positions.
They even used Skyfire Company and the Pharmacy Guild as shields to prevent the military commander from interfering, while they themselves reaped the benefits from behind the scenes. What a cunning and treacherous little fox!
"Our Potion Guild fully supports Brother Wang Hao!" Mai Mengmeng patted her chest, as if to say, "I've got this decided, there's no problem with it."
Qiu Lei rolled her eyes. Did this little girl who only knew how to prepare medicine really know what kind of trouble selling official positions meant?
However, since the Potion Guild has made its stance clear, as Wang Hao's partner, he can't back down!
Thinking of this, Qiu Lei took a deep breath, stood up, and said earnestly, "Our Tianhuo Company fully supports Wang Hao!"
As soon as he finished speaking, all the guests immediately began to discuss it with great delight.
What do you all think about this?
"Needless to say, just go and buy your way into an official position!"
“That’s right. With the support of the Potion Guild and Skyfire Company, why should we be afraid of the military?”
“That’s right. We bought our official positions, which is equivalent to following Wang Hao. If the Commander-in-Chief wants to touch us, it’s like slapping Wang Hao in the face.”
"Even if there are risks, I must buy a military rank."
“That’s right. With a military rank, our family business can expand to other planets.”
"That's true. Every time I try to expand my business, the gifts I have to give are almost bankrupting me. I also have to be mindful of other people's feelings. If I were an official myself, I wouldn't be afraid of anything."
"As the saying goes, opportunities and risks go hand in hand. Buying a military rank carries risks, but the benefits are numerous."
“We are all business people, and investment always carries risks. This time, I’m determined to take the gamble.”
"You're all crazy, we're not going to play along with your madness."
"I won't stay with you either."
"Brother, I won't go crazy with you guys, but I can help you buy an official position, but then..."
"Haha, that's easy to say. When the time comes, our two families will be connected even if we're broken."
"I'll support you too..."
“…”
Looking at the expressions of everyone present, Qiu Lei felt a sense of anticipation. Following this trend, Wang Hao might actually be able to create a legion comparable to the four elite armies.
The army, which once numbered at least a million, now has a starting force of ten thousand.
The remaining 990,000 soldiers, whose ranks had already been sold, were not worth worrying about. Moreover, these wealthy men would not be content to be commanders without troops and would definitely recruit soldiers.
At that time, this million-strong army can be quickly assembled, and since the people who purchase military ranks come from all walks of life, even if they are civilians, the power they unleash should not be underestimated.
"I feel that a legendary figure has already begun to write his legendary life story," Qiu Lei thought to himself.
………
After Wang Hao announced the public auction of military ranks, the military commander Guan Xinxiong received the news immediately.
The Commander's Office.
Guan Xinxiong sat in his seat with a gloomy expression. Several other people were sitting next to him; they were all powerful nobles who controlled the military.
Because of intermarriages between the families, the relationship is very close.
"Commander-in-Chief, what do you suggest we do about this?!"
“That’s right. Wang Hao sold his general’s rank to those commoners. This is a provocation against us nobles.”
"What's most infuriating is that this kid actually got Skyfire Company and the pharmaceutical company to back him up."
“This kid is much more difficult to deal with than his father; we have to find a way to make him disappear.”
“…”
Guan Xinxiong tapped the table with his fingers and said calmly, "Stop arguing. Wang Hao can't be moved yet. If we do, we'll inevitably alert him. After some time, I guarantee I'll make him disappear completely."
Upon hearing this, everyone present nodded in satisfaction, showing great trust in Guan Xinxiong's abilities.
"Then, Commander, what are we going to do about this sale of military ranks?" A middle-aged man said with a look of disgust, "I don't want my younger generation to bow to those commoners."
Guan Xinxiong couldn't help but laugh and said, "Since Wang Hao wants to sell military ranks, then let's grant his wish and let those good-for-nothing juniors from various families buy military ranks, and then completely sideline Wang Hao."
Everyone present was immediately impressed; it was a brilliant idea.
By spending some money, not only could these military ranks be returned to the hands of the nobles, but Wang Hao could also be completely sidelined, leaving him without even the power to recruit soldiers, making him a mere figurehead.
Meanwhile, if those spoiled brats in their family cause any more trouble, it will all be blamed on Wang Hao, which will also reduce the number of complaints against their family...
