Prodigal System in the Flourishing City

Chapter 1172: Chapter 1171: Apology

Rashed’s prediction was spot on. Over on Lu Xiaobu’s side, they’ve worked tirelessly day and night, and the car is complete!

They don’t need inspections, no rework needed, no testing, no meetings, just head straight to the destination; the speed is not just a hundred times faster than John’s!

Li Jin came to inform Rashed, ”Prince Rashed, we have finished the work.”

On hearing this, Rashed’s heart skipped a beat — indeed, they had completed it!

This is unsettling.

If it had been at another time, perhaps a few days ago, or the day before he got drunk, he could observe Lu Xiaobu’s method of construction using fabric techniques, there would be no question — Lu Xiaobu would undoubtedly win.

Their speed compared to John — that’s fast!

They broke through a tough barrier first, which means John definitely cannot achieve it within the same timeframe!

However, that’s how the world is — truth is stranger than fiction!

It just so happened he drank that day, happened to drink too much, and it was precisely that day John shared the fabric improvement methods with him.

Yet, the next day, Lu Xiaobu’s team achieved it using the same method!

Isn’t that frustrating?!

In the end, he made a decision with gritted teeth and a stomped foot!

I’m not going to say who wins or loses, both sides should lay out their works and compare them yourselves!

”Alright, we’ll head over right away.” Rashed decided, no longer hesitating, and said directly to Li Jin.

”Alright. Oh, by the way, our Young Master asks if there’s any wine? The Young Master feels a five percent share in Lego is indeed worth celebrating.” Li Jin asked casually.

”Yes, we have your Heavenly Dynasty’s liquor; I’ll have someone send it over.” Rashed nodded.

After Li Jin left, John’s face turned incredibly blue: ”What’s he implying?! Is he saying he’s sure to win?!”

The competition hasn’t even begun, and they’re already preparing to celebrate with drinks?!

That Heavenly Dynasty person is arrogant!

”Let’s go, bring our work and check it out together.” Rashed said with a wry smile, shaking his head.

”Why bring it?!” John was stunned, suddenly having a flash of realization: ”Could it be... they...”

”Exactly, what they’ve made is also a car.” Rashed was helpless.

”Alright! I’m eager to see this!” John showed his gleaming white teeth.

If they crafted something else, especially if Lu Xiaobu’s team made something with Heavenly Dynasty flair, he wouldn’t be so angry.

But they are making a car, and the other side is making a car as well.

Intentional or not, he feels a strong sense of provocation!

What’s the meaning of this?! Trying to challenge us in our domain of expertise, on something not yet mastered?!

You Heavenly Dynasty people sure are arrogant!

”Such arrogant behavior reminds me of someone, someone arrogant enough to challenge everyone worldwide.” John muttered: ”Also a Heavenly Dynasty person!”

Rashed glanced at him, remaining silent.

He knew who John was talking about — wasn’t it Lu Xiaobu!

Yes, you’re thinking right, your opponent is Lu Xiaobu himself!

However, he agreed to help preserve someone’s identity, so he couldn’t say more!

Soon, John’s team wheeled their half-finished product to the doorway of Lu Xiaobu’s workshop.

The door opened.

When Lu Xiaobu’s Bugatti Chiron appeared in front of the John cohort, the faces of the John workshop people changed!

Fabric construction?! The fabric construction they recently thought of?!

They had just conceived the idea here; Lu Xiaobu’s team had already completed it?!

Could it be... they...

Rashed sighed — just as he expected!

”You Heavenly Dynasty people are truly detestable to the extreme! No wonder there’s such confidence; supposedly we can’t produce what they can — is it about stealing our ideas, then crafting it themselves, leveling the field this way?!” Green, a Lego member, exclaimed furiously.

Other Lego members nodded furiously with a look of indignation.

They also thought this way, agreed this was the case.

”Trash.” Lu Xiaobu scoffed, poured himself a drink, and began savoring it alone.

”What did you say?!” Green suddenly burst with rage, stepping forward to make a move.

Li Jin glanced at him, stepping forward too, looking at Green indifferently; against someone like him, Li Jin could handle him with one hand, one foot.

”Green, shut up!”

John, their leader, stopped Green, looking at Lu Xiaobu’s crafted Bugatti Chiron with shock!

At first glance, it seemed similar; after all, both used fabric construction!

But once you look closely, you’ll realize...

Not the same, completely different!

Accurately speaking, they are not even the same level!

”Finally someone who recognizes.” Lu Xiaobu said leisurely.

John looked at Lu Xiaobu with a bitter expression and said, ”Did you make this?!”

”Well, was it you who made it?” Lu Xiaobu rolled his eyes: ”Seriously a stupid question.”

”John, you...”

Green still seemed confused.

”Shut up, look closely, don’t be a fool!” John snapped.

Then, Green peeled away his fury, started looking closely.

And Rashed was stunned too — was it different?!

It seemed similar to him!

So, he began examining it closely as well.

He spends his days here, so he had some level of discernment too.

Very quickly, he noticed the problem.

”These headlights! And this spoiler! And interior rearview mirror, wipers, seatbelt, and sports seats! My God!” Rashed, overwhelmed with excitement, frantically circled around the car.

”Could it be...” Green certainly noticed too, with a mouth full of bitterness.

Though voicing doubt, in his heart he was convinced!

They had lost!

The slap to their face resounded clearly!

Recalling their talk of others unable to produce quality work, a wave of shame rushed over!

Others can’t produce quality work?!

No! The others absolutely did!

Not only did they succeed but also crafted the very things they couldn’t, the good things they were still researching!

”Indeed, many of our challenges they have surpassed already!” John said bitterly: ”The technical hurdles we’ve been researching for over a year, possibly needing another year’s work, have all been resolved by them!”

”May I take a closer look?!” John asked Lu Xiaobu.

At this moment, his former arrogance had entirely vanished, leaving only apprentice-like reverence.

They had won, the Heavenly Dynasty people had already won.

No need for touch; from appearance alone, he knew they had lost!

Therefore, he was now pleading for the Heavenly Dynasty folks’ permission to observe closely!

”Go ahead and look.” Lu Xiaobu gestured casually.

”Thank you for your generosity; I offer my most sincere apology for my previous arrogance and rudeness!” John deeply bowed to Lu Xiaobu!

”No rush.” Lu Xiaobu glanced at him indifferently: ”This is just the beginning, if this is all you’ve got, I’d be disgraceful!”
