When Bai Yang was awakened by his alarm, it was still late at the night on this side. The moon was even further away to the other side and the darkness intensified.

Checking his phone, it was already eight in the morning on Earth.

Putting his phone away, Bai Yang noticed movement outside of the door, probably because the girl was awoken by the alarm too. He did not plan on explaining it to her since she wouldn't even understand him. Rubbing his face with his hands, Bai Yang disappeared.

It was actually quite a strange feeling, a second before, he was sitting in the dark and in the next second, he was now standing in a place shrouded by the breezy morning sunlight, truly fascinating.

Firing up the truck's engine, Bai Yang started driving towards his father's factory.

From his recollection, his father's factory was about a few houses big with about 30 busy workers. But that was his memory from 10 years back, he hadn't visited his father's factory since high school….

And his expression was definitely amusing when he arrived at his father's workplace.

The messy environment in his impression did not appear, what entered his vision were compounds surrounded by a fence. All sorts of machinery noises came buzzing out from the compounds and there were even security guards on duty.

“Ho! Old Man Bai is doing well! He managed to pull up such a huge factory without making a sound… No wonder he is never worried about money….” murmured Bai Yang as he looked at the factory.

Wait a minute, something's not right, I'm just trying to help dad and from the looks of it, I'm really going to become a parasite who is trying to earn my commission through dad…

Parasite my a.s.s! With these precious materials, dad can easily squeeze into the top ranking furniture producer in the field now!

While complaining in his heart, Bai Yang drove towards the main gate and unsurprisingly, he was halted by the guards.

This was expected, so Bai Yang did not try to force his way in and he called his dad right away.

“Dad, remember what we talked about last night? I'm now in front of your factory, and come take a look at the materials, if you are not interested, I will pull them away.”

“Oh ho? You are actually being serious? Now I am curious to see what you are up to, hold on….”

Du du du—

Bai Yang's mouth twitched upon being hung up at, he threw his phone aside and stated engaging the guards in nonsense conversation to spend time. Through small talk, Bai Yang was able to obtain some information about the factory.

From what he heard, this factory was quite a huge one, with a thousand employees and ten plants. Its functions ranged from raw material processing, rough refining, detailing, and production to name a few. Then there were also departments the sales and accounting department, it was entirely like a professional company. Hearing this alone made Bai Yang clogged up.

However, he did not need to remember all of this because he did not plan to enter this industry to compete with his father so there was no need.

Not long later, a middle-aged man arrived at the entrance riding on a scooter and started explaining to the guards. He then waved at Bai Yang to signal him to follow and gave Bai Yang a weird glance. He couldn't understand why his boss ask him, the head of the raw material processing department, to bring in a young man driving a truck.

After taking a few turns in the factory area, they arrived at a noisy environment where various types of wood scattered. Workers wearing protective helmets walked around, and the wood sawing machine rumbled as forkloifts drove around….

Right away, Bai Yang saw his father, who was surrounded by a few men, and waved towards his dad after cutting off the truck's ignition.

“Not bad, kiddo, you even brought such a huge truck with you. Good, keep this spirit up. Today, even if you brought me some garbage material, I will take them all no matter what.”

Bai Jianjun tapped on Bai Yang's shoulder, he felt that his son was really being serious for once, or the “boss” behind Bai Yang was probably also a weirdo.

Without explaining, Bai Yang waved, “Take a look.”

Bai Jianjun gave him a smile, waved at the few workers surrounding him and told them to check on the materials.

The trailer's door was opened, the workers got it and less than 10 seconds, impressing shouts were heard and they immediately shouted, “Boss, come here right now!”

Bai Jianjun's expression changed a little, he gave Bai Yang a glance and charged over there before started having a serious discussion with his men.

A proud Bai Yang arrogantly walked towards them. He vaguely heard them saying that the wood materials were precious and rare, probably one of the best they'd ever seen and things couldn't be wrong.

Bai Jianjun then showed up, pointing his finger at Bai Yang's nose as he shouted, “Where did you get them kiddo!”

“I told you, I'm in a trading business. Hey, I'm very busy, just tell me if you want them or not,” replied a proud Bai Yang who was pleased to see his father's reactions.

“I want them, I want them all! Even if I had to sell everything! Brat, tell me the name of your company and your boss' name!” shouted Bai Jianjun as he clenched his fists.

“What are you trying to do dad?”

“I want to kill your boss!”

Bai Yang's eyes widened in shock, What the h.e.l.l?

“d.a.m.n it! Such fine materials can't even be found in the market right now and he had them all recklessly hacked into blocks? Can you imagine how much he wasted? Even the leftovers can be sold at a very high price, what a waste! Is he stupid?” shouted Bai Jianjun as he waved his arms around.

That idiot is right in front of you….!

Bai Yang was worried before this but now, he couldn't be bothered anymore, for he could easily get his hands on more materials, so much that the leftovers could only even be used as firewood.

“If you want it, you gotta pay for it,” replied a carefree Bai Yang.

Bai Jianjun stunned for a second, looked at Bai Yang and confusedly spat out two words, “To you?”

“Who else are you going to pay to aside from me… Ehem! Thing is, the company a.s.signed me to process these newly imported wood materials, the boss is trying to change his field and enter the jewelry field. As a result, the finance department is extremely busy now. Just send me the money first and I will take over everything before reporting back to the company,” said Bai Yang who couldn't even bring himself to look at the excuse he made…..

This was not how a business should be, there wasn't even a discussion on the price or what so ever…

“Wow, just wow! You are messing with me, aren't you? I wouldn't be surprised if I have to bring you some meal once in a while in the prison later on!” said Bai Jianjun as he looked at Bai Yang with a writhing expression.

He then turned around and shouted, “Send someone to move the materials and weigh them.”

And turned back to Bai Yang, “And the price?”

“Didn't I tell you? At the lowest market price possible! I can even offer you a discount.” replied Bai Yang with a big smile.

“Price according to the imports and place of the top-tiered imported red sandalwood this year is about 800,000 to 1,000,000 RMB a ton. I'm not going to lie, the wood right here is even better than those top-tiered ones, people would be willing to buy them even if you sold them more than a million a ton, what say you?”

“Fine, fine, okay, keep this as a secret, I'm only offering this to you because you are my father. I can give you 800,000 RMB for a ton, and after the discount, it would be 500,000. How bout that?”

“Are you kidding me….!”

Bai Jianjun looked at his son as if his son is an idiot.

Then a worker came saying, “Boss, the result is out. The materials are all super great. There are 31 tonnes 350 kilograms.”

Bai Yang looked at Bai Jianjun and said, “But again, you are my father, so I'll just make it easy on you and call it 30 tonnes. 3 times 3 is 15…. All together, it will be 15,000,000, pay me.”

“s.h.i.+t, you really are my biological son, but what I want to say is that I don't have that much money with me, and since they are in my hands now, I will not let them go anymore!” groaned Bai Jianjun as his red eyes stared right into Bai Yang's.

“Installment, easy! Three phases, each 5,000,000 or I can't report back to the ‘company'.” said Bai Yang in a manner that brooked no distrust.

Bai Jianjun, on the other hand, was even more decisive, he called the finance department and said, “Manager Liu, transfer 5,000,000 into x.x.x account. I will go and sign it later.”

Less than a minute later, a notification of 5,000,000 entering his account was sent to Bai Yang's phone and a smile spread across his face after seeing the message. Does this mean that I now have a lottery ticket of 5,000,000 that isn't even taxed?

“Okay dad, I gotta go!” waved Bai Yang who drove away in the rented truck after receiving his money….

“…..”

Bai Jianjun was left stunned and his mind was still clouded even after Bai Yang had left for a very long time. He had been in this field for years, so he knew very well just how rare and precious that the wood was. After processing them, the value of the furniture made from this kind of wood would increase by ten or even a hundred fold if they handled it particularly well. But now, it was like a child's toy and the wood materials were now in his hands…..

The installments and discounts could be ignored; he had basically gotten all of it for free. With that kind of quality, people would be competing each other to buy them even if Bai Yang set it at the price of 2,000,000 RMB a ton; the 31 ton he got with only 5,00,000 RMB was exactly just like he picked them up from the ground like rubbish. As for the remaining installments, no one would be able to sue him if he did not pay, there was not even a contract!

“This brat….”

In the end, Bai Jianjun smiled, he knew his son very well. Hence, if Bai Yang was so sure about it, why would the parents keep on pressing on him for an answer? Everyone had their own secrets, be it smuggling, stealing or whatever ways Bai Yang used to get these wood materials, no one would be able to find out after these materials were processed by his factory!

Whatever thoughts Bai Jianjun had, Bai Yang did not know. Right now, he was just extremely happy as he was no longer poor. With 5,000,000 in his hands, he had become a millionaire!

“Dad, you can just go trouble yourself with your own questions, I'm literally giving you this for free because you are my dad. Do you think I really don't know the price of the materials with the power of the internet? No one is really stupid, if it were someone else, I would shaken him down for everything he was worth. Where do you think you could find such wonderful thing on earth? If there really is an employee like that who fooled around like me, I would definitely kill him first if I'm the boss…..!”
