I Inherited 5,000 Years of Family Property-Chapter 826 - 824: Why Is He So Afraid

"Huh?" Limes fell silent, didn’t this mean she’d continue to be a couch potato? Wouldn’t such a life lose its dreams? But it also seemed pretty enjoyable.

"Boss, did you call me this time to handle something important?"

"Oh, I just ordered a Star Gazer," Zhang Menglong said, "but it seems there’s quite a queue in front. Can you see if you can expedite it for me?"

"That’s an easy matter!" Limes replied, "The company has a production line reserved for shareholders. This line doesn’t accept any customer orders, only those from shareholders."

"Oh? You have such benefits?" Zhang Menglong said, surprised and delighted.

"That’s the privilege you should enjoy as a shareholder," Limes said, "I’ll check for you."

Limes tapped lightly on her device like playing the piano, "Currently, there are 27 spacecraft waiting for production, but as the primary shareholder, you have the right to move your order forward. If the configuration is correct, it can go into production today and the construction time can be halved."

"Very good," Zhang Menglong nodded with satisfaction.

"Wait," Limes discovered something quite interesting, "the company’s second shareholder recently just ordered a Star Gazer. Except for the color, all other specifications are exactly the same as yours. The spaceship is already built but hasn’t been delivered yet."

Zhang Menglong’s eyes lit up, this is perfectly convenient, "How long would it take to change the color?"

"Our colors are applied using solid-state photon technology. It only requires extracting the photons from the shell and adding the solid-state photon of the color you want. It takes at most two Cosmic Hours."

"Brilliant!" Zhang Menglong immediately contacted that shareholder’s communication channel, if he could buy the spacecraft directly from this second shareholder, he could just wait at home for the delivery to arrive.

...

"Practicing Martial Dao isn’t an overnight success. You must cultivate like this every day for millennia. Can you withstand a punch cultivated for a hundred years, endure a strike refined over a thousand years, or withstand a circle understood from a million years of insight?" freёnovelkiss-com

In the Cosmic Empire of Xiluo Mountain, a middle-aged man faced tens of thousands of disciples and scolded them. The weakest of these disciples were Level Four Life Forms, and before them stood the master of the entire Xiluo Mountain Cosmic Empire—a Level Seven Life Form!

The middle-aged man threw a punch, tearing a clear crack in space. The small asteroid hanging on the horizon began to disintegrate from the outside, turning into the most brilliant fireworks in the universe.

"Continue practicing!" The middle-aged man left behind an invincible silhouette and disappeared from the dojo.

These people were merely his disciples, but if he came over once in ten years to speak a few words and demonstrate a move or two, it was already very generous. Even so, the lingering essence was enough for them to savor for a long time.

"The master’s realm has become even more terrifying!"

"I heard the teacher is not even a million years old yet. For an ordinary Level Seven Life Form, they’re at least five to six million years old, possibly even tens of millions!"

"You guys don’t know, do you? Our master is the major shareholder of the largest private spaceship company in the cosmos, Lancelot. He’s said to be a four-star user of the Cosmic Bank. His resources are unimaginable for us."

"If only we had such wealth, our cultivation speed would be several times faster!"

...

"Cough, cough, cough!" The middle-aged man, who had disappeared from the students’ view, suddenly coughed fiercely. He rubbed his chest and then sighed towards the starry sky.

"Master, you have a communication request."

"Connect it!" The middle-aged man commanded his Artificial Intelligence.

"Yes, connecting you to the first shareholder of Lancelot Company."

"What?" The middle-aged man’s face was suddenly filled with endless fear, as if hearing a ghost story. However, the communication was already connected, and hanging up now would bring consequences he dared not imagine.

"Mr... Mr. Zhang, long time no see." The middle-aged man’s voice was filled with flattery, completely unlike his previous authoritative demeanor, now more like a eunuch.

"Hello, may I ask if this is Mr. Orlando?" Zhang Menglong asked.

"Mr. Zhang, since when were you this polite? How can I dare accept the title of ’mister’? Just call me Little Orlando."

What was going on? Although the second shareholder’s shareholding wasn’t even half of his, it shouldn’t have warranted this level of humility, should it?

Zhang Menglong could see Orlando’s identity—a powerful Level Seven Life Form, a ruler of a Cosmic Empire with control over billions of lives. Even many small Level Five Civilization leaders would respectfully call him Lord Orlando!

"Are you Mr. Orlando?" Zhang Menglong confirmed once more.

Orlando suddenly froze. He could never forget the voice of this account owner—a voice that he would consider a nightmare for life, one that even woke him up suddenly from sleep several times.

But the voice now was clearly not from that terrifying one.

"Yes, it’s me...you are...?"

"Hello, Mr. Orlando, my name is Zhang Menglong. You may not know me, but you should know my great-great-great... grandfather."

Orlando immediately understood that the man had directly given this account to his descendants!

Bear in mind, this was not just an ordinary account. It was tied to the company’s stock, and transferring the account would mean that the company’s assets were also transferred.

Lancelot Company’s assets worth tens of millions of stars—he just handed it all over to his junior without even batting an eye!

"Know him? Of course, I know him," Orlando asked cautiously, "Is your ancestor well?"

"Oh, he’s doing great!" Zhang Menglong replied. He remembered Zhang Kai seemed to be playing in the world of Douluo Continent now.

Zhang Menglong was more curious. Why was he still using honorifics to address him?

Hearing this news, Orlando’s breath paused. Yes, it had only been a few hundred years since they last met. Of course, a person like that was doing well. Who in the universe could actually harm him?

Upon reaching the Level Six Life Form, there were no longer issues with lifespan. The only things that could take a Level Six Life Form’s life were natural disasters and misfortunes. In this universe, there was probably nothing that could contend with him.

"Mr. Orlando, I have a favor to ask you," Zhang Menglong got straight to the point, "I heard you ordered a Star Gazer? I also have my eyes on this spaceship but would have to wait several months. I’m impatient, so I’m wondering if you’d be willing to let yours go first?"

"I can pay double!" Zhang Menglong felt his request was lacking in persuasion. Although he was a major shareholder, he couldn’t take advantage of others for free.

"Of course, there’s no problem!" Orlando agreed readily, "Just take the spaceship, no need to pay. It’s all produced by our own company; it isn’t worth money!"

"But that can’t do!" Zhang Menglong quickly replied, "I’m a decent man, I can’t take something for free, and the salesperson even explained it to me for a long time. The commission should still be given."

"No, no, no! I really can’t accept the money!" Orlando resolutely refused, "I will handle your order and the salesperson’s due commission won’t be short by a single Cosmic Coin; you can rest assured!"

"Isn’t this a bit inappropriate?"

"How could it be inappropriate? You go ahead and take it. If you don’t, it’ll seem like you’re looking down on me; at that time, Mr. Zhang Kai will certainly blame me for not taking care of you!"

"Well, then I accept your offer humbly," Zhang Menglong didn’t understand why Orlando was acting like a sycophant, but if someone insists on footing the bill, he didn’t feel the need to resist, "Thank you then, Mr. Orlando. Next time, if there’s a chance, I’ll bring my great-great-great... grandfather to personally thank you."

"No, please don’t! Even if there needs to be a visit, I should be the one visiting you!"

"Alright then, Mr. Orlando must be very busy, so I won’t disturb you any longer!"

Zhang Menglong had a strange expression, "Why is he so scared? Do I eat people?"
