"Temporary endurance does not mean weakness. It simply means our bargaining chips are not yet enough. What we need to do now is work hard to accumulate our own chips. Since they want to use you to ultimately achieve their goal of controlling the company, we can turn their strategy against them to rapidly elevate your position within the company. You must treat all of this as a war—a war in which both sides must give it everything they have. The victorious side will secure the ownership of Lingtu Company."
Si Ren took a deep breath and asked, "What should I do right now? How can I rapidly accumulate chips?"
"To accumulate chips, you first need to understand what chips are and the value they represent. The chip you currently hold is the status of a legitimate employee of Lingtu Company. This identity is your current amulet; as long as you haven't reached a certain level of prominence, they will not let you encounter danger easily. This is your first chip, and also the most important one. But as your position grows higher and higher, the utility of this chip will gradually diminish.
