Prodigal System in the Flourishing City

Chapter 1087: Chapter 1086: Room to Maneuver

Lu Xiaobu’s threats were finished, each one making the people in the meeting room feel uncomfortable, even painful!

The first two were not worth mentioning, but the last one was the harshest!

As the saying goes, there are only those who steal for a thousand days, not those who guard against thieves for a thousand days!

If Lu Xiaobu announces to the public that he will come to Japan again, it would be like rubbing salt into the wounds of the people!

That feeling of constant dread would sweep over them at all times!

Even, it’s possible that this feeling might cause chaos!

It’s just like the ancient dynasties of the Heavenly Dynasty. Even when the nation was strong, why would they repeatedly make peace with the Xiongnu and others?!

Was it really because they couldn’t beat them?!

They could, with the strength of the entire nation they certainly could!

But, whether it’s worth the fight is where the problem lies!

The Xiongnu were nomads, without fixed cities, and practically everyone was a soldier. They would flee if attacked, engaging in guerrilla warfare!

The difference between soldiers making long treks and those living on the grasslands as nomads was significant. Everyone knew how big the gap was and how long they could last!

And when you get tired and stop pursuing, they would turn back and raid your borders, plundering your property.

Fighting them was exasperating!

So, in the end, they could only choose to make peace to gain temporary peace and wait for the right opportunity to annihilate them in one fell swoop!

Their current relationship with Lu Xiaobu was just like this, extremely frustrating.

”Uh, let us discuss it.”

The previously hard stance of the people in the meeting room was completely gone, replaced by a hesitant tone.

”Please, you have an hour!” Lu Xiaobu shrugged and said.

”An hour?! That’s not enough! At least give us a week!” The meeting host quickly said.

This is not a small matter, how could it be decided just like that?!

”Alright, half an hour then!” Lu Xiaobu nodded.

”What!? You!” The meeting host was infuriated!

”Fifteen minutes!” Lu Xiaobu said again.

”Okay!” A person beside quickly covered the meeting host’s mouth, any more and it might become five minutes!

Fifteen minutes it is, anyway, the main people were present.

The video was turned off.

The meeting room immediately started the discussion!

The specifics of the discussion were not retraced, anyway it’s the same old routine.

Lu Family.

”Young Master, will they really agree?”

Liang Lan felt that at this moment, the young master was full of dignity. The usually casual smile now seemed incredibly dignified!

”They’re not stupid! They will definitely agree!” Lu Xiaobu yawned and said, ”The reason I video-called them privately is to give them some leeway!”

”Leeway?” Lu’s father was puzzled.

”Dad, what do you think is their country’s biggest problem?” Lu Xiaobu smiled.

”Isn’t it the problem you stirred up?” Lu’s father rolled his eyes, but there was no blame in his eyes.

”Yes, the biggest problem is created by me! But the extended problem is the relationship between Japan, me, and even our country!”

Lu Xiaobu explained: ”I assume they are desperately trying to solve this problem, and there are only two solutions.”

”First, arrest you. Everything will be resolved instantly!” Lu Hongbin realized, thinking as he spoke: ”And obviously the first solution is unrealistic, so there’s only the second one, which is to ease relations, and this time, serves as a very good method.”

”That’s right, they can totally present this to the outside world as a matter of friendship cooperation to soothe the wounds in their people’s hearts, although this may be a bit frustrating for them, I believe they will know what’s more important!” Lu Xiaobu laughed.

”But, that’s not all, right?” Lu Wenhuo asked.

”Of course, they will definitely set some conditions, as long as they are not excessive, just agree to them!”

Lu Xiaobu’s lips curled into a sly smile: ”After all, reducing the negative impression of me in their country is not only beneficial to them but also to me!”

A snake hiding in the dark is the real venomous serpent, while one placed in the arena is merely for show!

...

And just as Lu Xiaobu was negotiating with Japan, the news about Lu Xiaobu wanting to shoot a documentary also spread to the outside.

This was unavoidable, as Principal Li’s chatter over the phone led to everyone in the world knowing.

So, this matter trended on social media again!

And this time, everyone’s thought was the same—impossible!

”Hahaha, this is the biggest joke of the century, impossible, impossible!”

”Exactly, who is Young Master Bu?! Probably the most hated person by Japan this year, maybe even this century! Will they provide Young Master Bu with video materials for a documentary that’s disadvantageous to them?!”

”Is this a joke?! It’s utterly ridiculous! Who spread this rumor?! No matter how much of a Miracle Maker Young Master Bu is, you can’t treat him as a god! Why pin such rumors on him?! What are you trying to do?!”

”Exactly! This is too much! Weibo officials, step in, this is clearly a rumor, isn’t it?! Block it early on to avoid annoying everyone!”

”Not boasting! If they really manage to get it, I’ll livestream myself eating an electric fan from Japan!”

”Eating an electric fan is nothing, I’ll livestream doing a handstand while throwing a cake!”

”Hahahaha! You guys are really over the top, how do you expect the people spreading rumors to react?!”

”However, jokes aside, if they really manage to get the materials, I’m sure it would make for an excellent documentary!”

”Yes! I have a friend from Japan, don’t worry, he’s a pacifist. He once told me that those materials are full of past atrocities, and even include some human experiment records. Japan’s officials back then preserved a lot of that stuff!”

”My God! Human experiments! I heard from my grandfather that those human experiments back then were inhumane! There was one called the frostbite experiment, where in temperatures below freezing, cold water was constantly poured, and when there was no feeling left, they were soaked in warm water until softened, then the flesh on the hands was peeled off like gloves, just thinking about it makes me shudder with fear!”

”I also heard about one called live dissection, which is as the name suggests, dissecting a living person completely!”

”And there’s also the high-pressure experiment! Sending people into a high-pressure chamber and increasing pressure until the victims show extreme expressions of pain, trying to scream but no sound comes out, until finally, the eyeballs pop out of the sockets, intestines and other organs burst out of the abdominal cavity, spilling everywhere.”

”Those aren’t even the most brutal; the most brutal one is called the ’Love Experiment’. The pain from that experiment wasn’t physical, but rather a mother’s choice for her survival and her newborn...”

”Enough! Enough! Please stop! That’s too terrifying! If these things are real, and there’s even footage, it would be scarier than a horror film!”

”Yes, but it’s just talk after all, how could Japan possibly give such things to Young Master Bu?!”

”...”
