After exchanging beast mates, those crazy S-rank beasts are all vying to be my pets.

Chapter 209 Backlash Contract
Shen Jinxi's lips trembled, and she couldn't utter a word for a long time.

Hu Qingqing couldn't stand it anymore. "Shen Jinxi, come out here."

Shen Jinxi glanced at Hu Qingqing fearfully, hesitated for a moment, then got up and followed Hu Qingqing out of the office.

"Are you deliberately trying to harm me and ruin our chances?"

Before Shen Jinxi could even stand up straight, Hu Qingqing questioned her and launched into a tirade of abuse.

"Let me tell you, Sang Tian is very important to us right now. Even if she wants you dead, I will not hesitate to do it. You'd better find a solution as soon as possible, otherwise we will have no choice but to keep our distance from you or help Sang Tian."

Shen Jinxi knew that if Sang Tian wanted her dead, Hu Qingqing would definitely kill her without hesitation to please Sang Tian.

She pursed her lips, feeling extremely displeased.

"I understand. I'll find a way to make her forgive me." Shen Jinxi lowered her eyelashes, not daring to confront Hu Qingqing directly.

"You go back first."

Hu Qingqing's tone towards Shen Jinxi changed, and her eyes were filled with disdain.

Shen Jinxi was not good at performing missions, but she had a good talent for supernatural abilities that could be helpful.

I never expected her to be such a terrible person. I dare not continue to employ someone like that.

After driving Shen Jinxi away, Hu Qingqing returned to her office.

Sang Tian's emotions shifted very quickly. While the two were talking outside, she had already put away the screen and turned off the cloud projection, as if nothing had happened.

"I'm sorry, Shen Jinxi accused me of what she did to you. I brought her here without fully understanding the situation."

"It's nothing, I just want you to hand her over to me, and then we can talk about what to do next, okay?"

Sang Tian believed that Hu Qingqing's visit today was not as simple as just explaining.

"You knew I was coming?"

Sang Tian spread her hands and shrugged. "Is it that hard to guess?"

Hu Qingqing smiled, surprised that Sang Tian had started plotting against her so early on.

“If Shen Jinxi hadn’t destroyed your superpower, you would have been the one chosen by us.”

“It’s not important to talk about these things now. Take a look at this.” Sang Tian opened a drawer, took out a document, and handed it to Hu Qingqing. “As long as you agree, I can sign the contract right away.”

Hu Qingqing opened the contract, which was filled with densely packed clauses.

This is not a simple contract; it is a contract that requires the blood of one's fingertips to sign. Once this contract is signed, the breaching party will suffer repercussions until they are tortured to death.

This kind of contract is uncommon, which shows that Sang Tian has no trust in them whatsoever.

After being surprised by the contract, Hu Qingqing thought the terms were unreasonable, but they turned out to be very simple: Sang Tian would provide manpower and spirit crystals on the condition that a certain area be allocated to her.

Hu Qingqing glanced at the map below; Sang Tian occupied one-third of the continent.

However, most of them are in the suburbs, with only a few in cities.

This had no impact on them whatsoever.

Hu Qingqing hesitated for a long time, and when she saw the upper limit of 100 million spirit crystals, she was surprised by Sang Tian's wealth, which was more than all of them combined.

With a manpower of over a thousand, they can provide approximately 1,500 orcs.

Hu Qingqing frowned, conflicted, and was quite tempted by the terms.

After getting to know her over this period of time, she could easily guess what Sang Tian would do with these desolate wastelands.

If this continues, Sang Tian's wealth will grow stronger and stronger, and now many beastmen and females on the continent have great faith in her.

Xingduan is a threat now, but what if Sangtian becomes the biggest threat in the future?

Hu Qingqing hesitated to sign the contract, worried that Sang Tian would become greedy like Xing Duan and gradually expand her own business. Right now, she was just using them to work for her, and Hu Qingqing had many concerns.

"If you're worried I might do something else, why don't you take a look at the next page first?" Sang Tian reminded the other person, who was stuck on one page.

Hu Qingqing suddenly came to her senses, flipped to the back, and found that there were markings indicating the restrictions on the sections.

Sangtian shall not expand its territory under any pretext, unless Party B voluntarily grants it or sells it to Party A through a purchase.

After reading all of this and considering all factors, Hu Qingqing decided to sign it.

"Oh, right, there's one of these clauses you might have missed. It requires the signatures of seven people from your side, and the same applies to our side."

Hu Qingqing was puzzled, "Seven signatures? Is it really necessary to have so many people sign?"

"Of course, it's safer with more people. After all, if you die, so many others will enjoy the good life. Given your great love and compassion, it's not impossible."

Hu Qingqing couldn't tell whether the words were an insult or a compliment.

"Take it back and sign it first. You should know who should sign it. Xiaoyan knows your internal affairs quite well. This contract is hard-won, so don't waste it."

Hu Qingqing felt a chill run down her spine when she met Sang Tian's smile.

"I know, don't worry."

After Hu Qingqing accepted the contract, Sang Tian saw her off.

After seeing them off, Sang Tian looked at the half-closed lounge and asked, "They're all gone, aren't you going to come out?"

Tang Xiaoyan, who had been eavesdropping in the lounge, opened the door with a smile on her face.

How did you know I was in there?

Sang Tian reminded her, "The door to the outer lounge isn't even closed properly. Besides, do you think you'd miss something like this?"

Tang Xiaoyan responded with an "oh," feeling curious about the contract that Sang Tian had mentioned earlier.

"I've never seen that contract before. Do you have a copy?"

Sang Tian shook her head, "That contract costs 800,000 spirit crystals each. Do you think it can be photocopied?"

Even after she finished speaking, her heart was still bleeding.

"There are backups on the computer. The draft of the contract was written on the computer and is on the desktop."

As soon as she finished speaking, Tang Xiaoyan ran to the computer and opened the document to read it.

"Tsk tsk, your contract is quite generous, one hundred million spirit crystals to buy them to work for you. You're really generous, it makes me a little tempted. I feel like I'm strong enough to kill gods and Buddhas alike right now."

Tang Xiaoyan's eyes were incredibly determined.

“How can we entice them if it’s not this much? Look at the rest of the list. It’s not a one-time payment. They need to submit an application for review before the funds are disbursed.”

Asking her to produce 100 million spirit crystals all at once is not something she can do alone; she would need to rely on the other seven beastmen.

"What do you need so much wasteland for? To turn it all into a plantation?"

Sang Tian nodded, "Even the Stardust can't control the environment and weather here. If we continue to live here, fresh vegetables and herbs are all worth spirit crystals, aren't they?"

Tang Xiaoyan finally understood why Sang Tian dared to price it at 100 million; she knew she would earn it back sooner or later.

The wool comes from the sheep, and not only that, Sang Tian also gets a lot of land.

These land and star-end purchases require tens of millions of spirit crystals, no wonder the stakes are so high.

Aren't you afraid they'll break their promise?

"Not afraid."
