The people in the collapsing iron gave the immortal ship a small shock from the Holy Lord.

Bai Zhi didn't quite understand what the asset agreement and hostile takeover were all about.

In the world of Jackie Chan Adventures, Shendu is a relatively powerful villain. If I choose the Vidyadhara Dragon Lord, it will probably have a suppressive effect on Shendu.

However... her own strength was enough to suppress the Holy Lord of this world. The absolute power of the Divine Lord, who was equivalent to a messenger, was above that of the Holy Lord.

For executives of global giants, having a large number of professionals to assist them should enable them to achieve the system's goals more quickly.

"System, select executives from global giants!"

After a moment of contemplation, Bai Zhi still chose the identity of a senior executive at Huanyu Enterprise. She no longer needed to improve her individual strength. On the contrary, publicity was not her forte, and she needed others to help her with this task.

The moment she chose this identity, some information flowed into Bai Zhi's mind.

"So that's how these abilities work!!"

Bai Zhi immediately understood.

"Well... let's go out and see what's going on first."

Instead of immediately calling the company branch, Bai Zhi decided to leave the cave first and see what was going on outside.

What if this isn't modern times, but ancient times, or some other era?

"boom!"

With a single punch, Bai Zhi shattered the sealed cave.

"It seems to be a modern society."

Stepping out of the cave, Bai Zhi gazed at the bustling children's park in the distance, feeling a surge of joy. She certainly didn't want to be in the ancient era of this world.

Because in ancient times, the world's military strength was far greater than that of modern times, and the population was smaller, making it extremely difficult to spread one's fame, and there was not much to enjoy.

Modern society is the perfect place for capitalist groups to showcase their abilities.

"System, spend some points to transfer my Split Coins over."

The system's point deduction notification flashed by, and a shiny gold coin instantly appeared in Bai Zhi's hand.

"With this thing, making your first pot of gold will be a breeze!"

Seeing the gold coin in her hand quickly split into a second one, Bai Zhi smiled. As expected of the wonder that the Interstellar Peace Company used to destroy the financial system of primitive planets, the effect was really good.

Fortunately, the gold coins that this thing splits out don't split automatically anymore, otherwise this planet would be submerged by the exponentially growing gold coins in no time.

"Hey boss, do you take things here?"

Bai Zhi arrived at a gold shop in the shopping district next to the children's playground and greeted the owner.

"Where did this little kid come from? Here's a candy, go play somewhere else."

The shop owner glanced at Bai Zhi, skillfully took a piece of candy from the snack basket in front of him, slapped it on the table, and gestured for Bai Zhi to take it.

This place is next to a children's playground, and children often come here excitedly, taking out their "treasures" in hopes of exchanging them for some pocket money.

His shop does accept items, but what the kids call treasures are just ordinary little trinkets that are worthless.

In the boss's eyes, Bai Zhi was just a child, and it was easy to get rid of him.

"Boss, are you sure you really don't want to take a look?"

Bai Zhi casually placed more than ten gold coins on the table and asked.

288 You are now a contractual asset!

"Where did this fake come from...? Wait a minute..."

When the shopkeeper saw the gold coins Bai Zhi had placed on the table, he was initially dismissive, but when the coins clinked together, he paused for a moment.

Having been in the precious metals industry for many years, he is very familiar with the sound of gold colliding.

The gold coins that Bai Zhi placed up sounded very similar to the gold he had handled before.

With this question in mind, he swallowed what he wanted to say, and instead picked up the gold coins with a serious expression, weighed them in his hand, and verified them using some methods he was familiar with.

These gold coins are actually real!

“Kid, where did you get these gold coins? These 15 gold coins are worth at least $6000, which is no small amount.”

"You don't need to ask, just tell me if you want it or not."

Are you sure you didn't steal it?

"I'm sure, and no matter what, I believe you, boss, definitely have the channels to handle this, right?"

The boss didn't answer Bai Zhi's question. Instead, he opened a drawer, counted out 47 green bills, and placed them in front of Bai Zhi.

"$4700, the market standard buyback price."

"OK, deal."

Bai Zhi took the green bills directly without questioning the price offered by the shopkeeper, because the era in this world seemed to be around the 1990s, when US dollars were still quite valuable.

"A strange child..."

Watching Bai Zhi's departing figure, the shopkeeper shook his head in confusion. However, he didn't have any ulterior motives. Perhaps someone didn't want to show up in person and sent a child instead.

He didn't want to cause trouble.

He doesn't want to cause trouble, but that doesn't mean others don't.

"Hey kid, hand over the money in your hand, or I'll beat you so badly you won't even have the strength to eat a lollipop."

"Sometimes, it's not just a stereotype."

Bai Zhi looked at the black man standing in front of her, extending his hand to her, and shook her head helplessly.

"I can give you money, as long as you sign this."

A piece of parchment covered with dense writing and a black fountain pen suddenly appeared in Bai Zhi's hands.

"What nonsense! Give me the money now!"

The Black man threatened in a low voice.

“If you don’t sign, I’ll shout for help. Although this place is a bit remote, there are still security guards and police patrolling here. On the contrary, if you sign, this money is yours.”

Bai Zhi shook the parchment in her hand and said without any fear.

Upon hearing this, the Black man instinctively looked around.

This isn't some desolate wilderness; it's just a relatively secluded spot within the commercial district with few people around. If the child in front of you were to actually make a sound, it would most likely attract attention.

"Sign it, kid, don't try anything funny!"

The Black man hesitantly snatched the parchment and pen from Bai Zhi's hand, hastily signed his name on it, and then tossed it back to Bai Zhi.

"Now you can give me the money, right?"

He said fiercely.

"Of course, all this money is yours."

Bai Zhi handed the 47 hundred-dollar bills to the black man without a second thought.

"Hehe, you're smart to know what's good for you."

The Black man snatched the US dollars, a bright smile spreading across his face. He hadn't expected the money to come so easily; it would be enough for him to squander for months.

"Now that you've received the money, the contract is established," Bai Zhi said slowly and deliberately.

"Get out of here, kid! I don't want to see you anymore. Get out of my sight!"

The Black man counted the money while waving his hand dismissively.

"So, you are now my contractual asset. As my asset, you must resolutely carry out my work arrangements for you. Now, give me the money!"

"Are you kidding me?"

The Black man let out a sneer, but then he found himself moving involuntarily, offering the money he had just received with both hands with great respect.

"Very good, you've done a great job, but next..."

"What the hell did you do?!"

The Black man was horrified. This incident shattered his worldview; his body was no longer under his control, and he had even returned the money he had just received.

This magical scene made him feel like he was dreaming.

Bai Zhi shook the parchment scroll that emitted an eerie purple glow. "It's not written in the universal interstellar script. I paid you $4700 to hire you as my asset. As an asset, you will wholeheartedly obey everything I say."

The Black man's eyes widened. Who could understand the nonsense written on it? This was clearly a scam!

Looking at the two horns on Bai Zhi's head, he thought of the demons in mythology, who also had two horns and also made people sign contracts to sell their souls.

Could it be that the story in the myth is true, but the description of that horn is wrong?

"Give me all the money you have left!" Bai Zhi said immediately, not caring what this guy was thinking.

The Black man immediately moved, rummaged through his pockets, and handed $50 to Bai Zhi.

"Very good, then after I give you one last task, you can be free~"

Bai Zhi took the money in her hand with satisfaction. Although she didn't lack the money, getting something for free was always pleasant.

Upon hearing this, the black man's eyes showed a look of relief. Was this devil finally going to let him go after squeezing all his money out of him?

"I command you to jump off the roof and explore the mysteries of gravity. You are not allowed to be sad, you are not allowed to say anything outrageous, and you must have a smile on your face and look willing."

"After all, I'm a kind boss and I don't want my employees to be unhappy at work," Bai Zhi said understandingly.

After hearing Bai Zhi's words, the Black man seemed somewhat confused. Was he exploring the mysteries of gravity?

what does that mean?

However, his dead junior high school knowledge immediately attacked him, and vague knowledge about gravity appeared in his mind.

Combining his earlier words about jumping off the rooftop, he immediately realized what Bai Zhi wanted him to do.

This so-called exploration of the mysteries of gravity is nothing more than letting him...

This made his expression change drastically, and he wanted to say something.

But immediately, his face contorted, replaced by a gentle smile, and he strode confidently toward the rooftop.

"Hmm... another great start to the year."

Bai Zhi walked out of the shopping district entrance, and the next moment, a heavy thud was heard, accompanied by splattered blood, which caused screams.

"Uncle Long, someone jumped off a building!!"

289 Company Branch Arrives

The shout caught Bai Zhi's attention. She saw a little girl with black hair wearing an orange-red outfit pointing at the dead black man and asking the man in blue clothes next to her for help.

"Is this a coincidence?"

Looking at the children's playground not far away, Bai Zhi shook her head. It didn't seem like much. In the original storyline, Xiao Yu often went to the children's playground to play, so it seemed quite normal for her to meet her here.

"Little friend, don't look back!"

Seeing Bai Zhi standing near the black man and looking him over, Jackie Chan quickly ran over and covered Bai Zhi's eyes.

Angelica dahurica: .....

However, Bai Zhi did not resist, but obediently followed Jackie Chan's guidance to the side of the shopping district.

"Little friend, where are your parents?"

After getting away from the black man's body, Jackie Chan removed his hand from Bai Zhi's eyes, squatted down, and softly asked her a question.

However, when he saw Bai Zhi's eyes, he was slightly taken aback, because Bai Zhi's pupils were actually the color of rubies, and her pupils were completely different from those of ordinary people, more like the vertical pupils of other creatures.

But he didn't think much of it. After all, there are all kinds of people in America. This little girl even has two horns on her head. She probably dressed up specifically to play at the children's amusement park.

"Wow, you're so cute! Where did you buy that horn on your head? It looks so realistic."

Xiaoyu curiously approached Baizhi, looking her up and down.

"Uncle Long, I want one too!"

"Xiaoyu, don't interrupt. She's all alone here, she's probably lost. Don't scare her like that."

After saying that, Jackie Chan looked at Bai Zhi and asked softly again, "Little girl, do you still remember where your home is?"
