“I understand, Master David. Since you said this stupid rock is a very precious metal, I wonder, how
much you‘re planning to pay me?” Oren eventually asked the question he was more concerned about.
He was in urgent need of money. If not, he would not stay here.
A year ago, after returning from the brink of death, Oren promised his dead teammates‘ families that he
would compensate them so they would be provided with the basic necessities.
He believed he could get a high price with this stupid rock then. However, a year passed, and he still
had the rock.
His promise also seemed so far away.
He was so helpless when his teammate‘s child fell sick. Sometimes, a man without money was no man
at all.
David showed Oren eight fingers. However, he did not say the exact price. He was worried he would
scare Oren, so he decided to mentally prepare Oren first.
“Eight million?” Oren asked in disappointment.
To be honest, eight million was not too low.
No one had ever proposed over a million to him before.
However, to Oren, this was not enough.
More than a hundred teammates died, and this thing was worth so little.
He needed at least ten times this price if he wanted to fulfill his promise.
However, since he took the rock over and promised David he would not bring it back, he should just
take it.
He needed money urgently, and time waited for no one. He would come up with another plan for his
promise in the future. As long as he was still alive, he would not forget it. Oren had accepted this price
in his heart. Howeyer, David shook his head, hinting to Oren that he was wrong.
Oren was stunned.
‘Not eight million?
‘Can‘t be eight hundred thousand. After all, David said this is very precious.
“The Nine Turning Star Iron! The naine alone sounds very bad*ss.
‘However, how would a big shot like David be interested in something worth eight hundred
thousand? ‘It‘s like he’s worried I won‘t sell it to him if he tells me the price. ‘Could it be eighty million?‘
Oren was filled with joy. ‘I was right to come here this time. ‘David knows what he‘s doing!‘
“Eighty m–million?” Oren asked carefully.
David shook his head again.
Oren was puzzled.
‘It‘s not eight million or eighty million, but it‘s a number that starts with eight. Could it be…‘ Oren
widened his eyes suddenly and stammered, “M–Master David, i–is it eight hundred m million?”
David continued to shake his head.
Oren was completely stumped this time. He had said all the numbers he could.
If he went up, it would be eight billion Galaxy Dollars, which was impossible. If he went down, eight
hundred thousand did not seem like a number that suited David. “Master David, stop playing with me. I
can‘t figure it out. Please tell me,” Oren said.
