Chapter 630

Meng Fan had never felt so conflicted; it was nearly impossible to bring this up with Lin Yi. The contributions Lin Yi had already made to Xia Country were immeasurable. Setting aside the current Goddess of Ninth Heaven and White Emperor Fighter, there were the initial solid-state lithium batteries, room-temperature superconducting materials, the AI Zero System, and Controlled Nuclear Fusion. Each one was an epoch-defining breakthrough that had allowed Xia Country to hold its head high over the past month. Even looking solely at the GDP data, the world had been turned upside down in just thirty days, suppressing the US dollar standard into the dust. To now ask him to shamelessly hand over the full suite of technology for Lin's Technology's Goddess of Ninth Heaven and White Emperor Fighter felt agonizing. Before Lin Yi could respond, Meng Fan quickly added, "However, Xiao Yi, we fought for you with the Old Tianren. All materials you purchased with your own funds will remain under the free control of Lin's Technology. Furthermore, you may conduct normal commercial activities within Xia Country without relying on the official government, and the Old Tianren is forbidden from interfering with this. This was the bottom line we presented to him. Otherwise, we would not have agreed to his proposal, even if it meant forfeiting the protection of the Tianren Pavilion."
