Rebirth of the Godly Prodigal-Novel2

Chapter 941: Five Billion

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

An investment of less than 10 million bringing a profit of 130 million, this was a profit ratio of 13 to 14 times!

“Oh my, my heart...”

“This... how are the rest of us supposed to live...”

“Is this fellow really a prodigal!?”

Up to this point, none of the Honorary Aristocrats would dare to think that Hong Dali’s data was fake anymore.

Just these few industries already earned him a profit ratio of 13 to 14 times! The most important thing was, what was the level of investment in these industries? Tens of millions! For businesses at such a scale, not even the Black and White-level Li Haokong could earn a profit ratio of a few times more than the investment cost!

What caused them to be the most depressed was that Hong Dali bought these industries purely for the purpose of squandering!

Almost all of the people from the Jiang and Yin Families knew these because they were the ones who sold them to Hong Dali!

Other people painstakingly spent a yuan as if it were 10 yuan, and they would be overjoyed when finally managing to save some money. But this Hong Dali, all he did every day was just squander and waste money. Yet, somehow, he managed to receive such huge benefits without knowing about it. How were others supposed to continue living? Could they still get along together happily now?

Though it was disadvantageous to compare oneself with others, this was still too big a blow to them!

Hong Dali, on the other hand, was still sleeping. “Hu... Hu...”

Of course, because Hong Dali spent as much as three months’ time on Earth, his time on this planet was limited. Therefore, there were still many industries that he didn’t do anything about yet. For example these few—

“There are six mid-range hotels, worth a total of 13 million. It is currently profitable at 4.5 million. Two martial arts halls, worth 7.4 million, are currently profitable at 260,000 dollars. Several real estates, totaling 16.6 million. Attribute gemstone processing factory, worth 15 million. Idle land, with a total value of 36 million, is currently not earning money. A film and television company, with a total value of 42 million, is currently not earning money.”

Overall speaking, these industries were not earning much money currently, which caused the other Honorary Aristocrats to feel confused.

“Huh, what situation is this? These industries practically aren’t earning anything. Compared to the previous ones, isn’t this a bit strange?”

“That’s right, what situation is this? This directly pulled down the previous profit ratio by quite a lot, right?”

“It did pull down the ratio, but why do I keep feeling that something is amiss here?”

As they were discussing, Li Haokong frowned and pondering about it too. Very quickly, his eyes lit-up. He finally understood why these industries were mentioned together. “These industries... Very good calculation, this Hong Dali is indeed impressive! Although these don’t seem to be of much use on the surface and even pulled down the profit ratio, the problem is that by mentioning them, he can increase the overall coefficient!”

Li Haokong had guessed correctly.

These industries weren’t bringing in much profit, but quite a lot was invested in them. Actually, if they were removed from this time’s assessment, it would seem to be more advantageous to Hong Dali. But the problem was, these industries were able to increase the overall coefficient!

After all, once the total investment exceeded 100 million, there would be an investment coefficient! Although it wasn’t a lot, the total investment was also 100 million or so. Added to the previous industries mentioned, Hong Dali’s industries would have a worth of 200 million or so in total. What concept was that? The net profit ratio would be doubled!

The net profit ratio of the previous estates would be doubled...

“Impressive.” Li Haokong helplessly shook his head. “No wonder he can win me. This Hong Dali is indeed not simple.”

Normally speaking, by this time, the assessment should be over soon. But obviously, it wouldn’t be Hong Dali’s style to let it just end like this.

The true highlight of the show had only just started.

“Hong Dali spent 65,000 to buy over a pawnshop.”

What situation was this? Was there any need to mention such a small transaction here?

Wasn’t this too much of a fuss?

The other Honorary Aristocrats instantly became curious. “Is he for real? Buy a pawnshop for 65,000? What’s this? Is there a need to mention such a small investment?”

“This... Indeed, compared to the previous investments, this seems to be too small to mention, right?”

“Could it be that he made a profit from this investment? But how big could the profit of such a small investment be?”

Although the others were feeling curious and weird, Jiang Dongliu knew why this pawnshop was mentioned. “Haha, even I forgot about this. Sigh, if this is counted in too... Yup, it looks like Hong Dali won over Li Haokong but not just a little bit, haha!”

Just as everyone was feeling very curious, the description of the pawnshop appeared—

“Through the pawnshop, Hong Dali became the godson of one of Three Emperors, White Beard Gate. White Beard Gate’s current net worth is five billion Dimu Dollars. Converted to Galaxy Dollars, that’s 25 billion. According to the evaluation, through this pawnshop, Hong Dali is akin to have gained a connection worth almost five billion.”

Seeing this, everyone was completely astonished.

White Beard Gate! That was a legendary character! This Hong Dali spent 65,000 Galaxy Dollars, bought a pawnshop, then became White Beard Gate’s godson through this pawnshop!? action

What the heck?

“He’s cheating, he’s definitely cheating!” Li Tianxing directly wept. “How can his luck be so good...”

Just now, he was still planning to continue to fight against Hong Dali after the advancement assessment ended. But now, with White Beard Gate as Hong Dali’s backing, even if someone gave Li Tianxing 10 guts now, he wouldn’t dare to seek Hong Dali’s trouble anymore.

White Beard Gate! He was renowned for being protective of his people! Being his godson, Hong Dali was practically free from trouble in the entire Milky Way!

“I lost.” Seeing this, Li Haokong finally lowered his head. He lost. In front of Hong Dali, he was completely defeated.

An investment of 65,000 brought Hong Dali a connection worth five billion Galaxy Dollars, how was he supposed to compete against him?

“His luck is really too good.” Li Haokong shook his head and smiled bitterly. “I never expected that with my capability, I would lose so utterly to his luck. Hehe, 65,000 to five billion... Sigh...”

Everyone was so helpless from this that they weren’t even able to exclaim anymore.

Hong Dali, on the other hand, continued to sleep. “Hu... Hu...”

However, this time, nobody made fun of him anymore.

After all of these were announced, the holographic projection started calculating the final result—

“The Star Harbor shops invested 7.35 million and have 31.2 million in revenue. Attribute gemstones that cost 8 million and the final value is now 80 million. Dali Spacecraft Manufacturing Plant, with a total investment of 33 million and a net profit of 84 million. Women’s Clothing has a total investment of 37 million and a profit of 249.85 million. Dali Food Processing Company invested 9.4 million and has a net profit of 128 million. Six mid-range hotels with an investment of 13 million and a profit of 4.5 million. Two martial arts halls, 7.4 million and a profit of 260,000. Real estates, 16.6 million. Property gem processing factory, 15 million. 36 million worth of idle lands, currently unprofitable. The film and television company, 42 million, is currently not profitable. A pawnshop with an investment 65,000 and a gain of five billion in connections.”

“In total: The total investment cost is 224.815 million Galaxy Dollars. Total revenue: 5.57781 billion. The net profit ratio is 2,481.06%. Multiply this by the coefficient 2.24815, the total result is 5,577.81%.”

A net profit ratio of 5,577.81%!

Everyone completely collapsed.

What the heck, he must definitely be cheating, right? He must be hacking, right? How is this possible!? How are the rest of us supposed to live!?

From this result, it seemed that not only was Hong Dali’s data correct, it even seemed to be a bit lower than it should be—this result didn’t count in White Beard Gate’s other children. If they were calculated in too, the result would be even more frightening, right?

It looked like Hong Dali was indeed more capable than Li Haokong, and not just by a bit.

It was laughable that they still mocked Hong Dali for being a superprodigal previously.

But now? They didn’t even stand a chance against Hong Dali if they had to compete with him! The gap between them was as much as the circumference of the entire Milky Way, wasn’t it?

That was such a loud smack on their faces this time.

Li Xuancheng wasn’t able to smile anymore for quite a while. The Li Haokong that he was most proud of had lost, Li Haokong and Hong Dali were completely on two different levels. From the looks of things now, this Hong Dali was indeed not so simple to plot against!

And the most depressing thing was that the sleeping Hong Dali coincidently flipped his body at this moment and muttered, “Hasn’t the assessment ended yet? So slow...” Then, he continued to sleep. “Hu... Hu...”

By this time, Jiang Dongliu finally remembered something that Hong Dali said before.

“Not anyone is qualified to become a prodigal...”

Everyone in the hall was completely stunned by Hong Dali, so much that they couldn’t even breathe and say anything.

This time, all of their faces were swollen from being slapped. The Honorary Aristocrats were all so shocked that they didn’t even know what to say anymore.

Luckily, Jiang Dongliu was very old and experienced. He recovered first and smilingly looked at Li Xuancheng. Jiang Dongliu smiled and said, “Well, Old Li, since the assessment is over, isn’t it time to fulfill the gamble now? I seem to remember that you said that Hong Dali can choose anyone he wants to bring away with him now. Also, you must agree to one of his requests, right?”
