<h4>Chapter 332 - THIS IS MY CITY!</h4>


    Hearing how Hao Mi gloated about Rudra knowing about her reputation , Rudra decided to end the woman''s career right then and there. Who the hell did she think she was , this is Purplehaze city , she was inside his guild hall surrounded by Elites. Rudra was not going to be intimidated in his own territory.


    Rudra said " I''m sorry , if you are who I think you are , then I saw you in an adult entertainment clip. It was thoroughly underwhelming at that , perhaps why it gave me asting impression".


    The smile vanished off Hao Mi''s face , only for a second though , as soon it was reced by a calmposure.


    She said " I''m Hao Mi , the leader of the Shang Lin Mafia , a triad leader , you are mistaken if you think you saw me in inappropriate content sites. However if you do wish to see me inappropriately you have to but ask guild master Shakuni , I am quite willing to bed you .... ".


    Rudra coughed , dammit he was weak when faced with such shameless woman , he was a virgin hence got flushed easily.


    Hao Mi chuckled at his behaviour , she found the guild leader Shakuni to be amusing.


    Rudra said " To what do I owe the pleasure of meeting a crime syndicate leader? ".


    Hao Mi " Ohhh , I thought you were close to Ethan Grey , my my , have you not met him? There is not much difference between us both , he uses his money to buy political support and grow his buisness , his core product being stocks , the triads deal in arms and drugs , except for our corepetency , there is nothing different in our methods , killing our enemies , buying politicians, having our own territory . To be honest I''m quite impressed with Ethan Grey .... The man truly has some excellent foresight ".


    Rudra knew that what Hao Mi said was not technically wrong , the traids were like a conglomerate , just because the dealt in selling stuff that governmentbels as illegal , they are potrayed as a vinous organization.


    Rudra knew firsthand that Ethan Grey was not a clean man himself. None of those who stood at the top were , everyone had their hands soaked in blood. However Rudra would not get swayed by her words. The triads were different from Ethan in the way that they werewless and did things on their own whim. Each triad gang member had a license to kill , and the organisation was very loosely regted.


    Rudra said " Soo are you going to tell me why you are here or are you going to beat around the bush?".


    Hao Mi raised an eyebrow then said " I am willing to invest in your guild , I am especially interested in this city you are building , I want to make it a base for my organization. Sell me 30% of your guilds shares and sign a contract with me that allows me to operate from here, I am willing to pay any price for this , even my body ".


    Rudra knew he would reject Hao Mi ''s offer , however his objective now was to gain as much information as needed , soo he yed ball.


    Rudra''s first question " Why Purplehaze city , why the elites ? ".


    Hao Mi smiled as she said " The way you are developing this city is unlike any other , the massive wall and the teleportation array coupled with the fact that this is an already excellently developed capital city even before you took over , makes this location very prefferable. The teleportation array is like an airport in real life . Any major city has to have it , however the construction cost is not minimal . However we know the secret that even with the massive wall and the teleportation array being made , the Elites have not borrowed money from the Grey corporation at all , and rely on its own finances. Such capabilities are extremely admirable. As well as the Elites have a very strong positive impression on the world , providing a perfect cover".


    Rudra started to read between the lines , he was obviously looking right past all the ttery , and at the essence of her words . He asked " Who did you approach before us?".


    Hao Miughed out loud " What makes you think anyone has the guts to reject us? If I approached anyone before this , I wouldn''t be here".


    Rudra shook his head " You would have approached us sooner if that was the case , my guess is Eternal Rebels or Frozen thorns , someone who could not mine the crystals".


    Hao Mi''s eyes widened , however she mentained her poker face as she said " I''m here to negotiate terms guild leader , tell me your price ".


    Rudra looked at her with all earnesty and replied " I''m sorry miss , this is my city , and my guild , and it''s not for sale!?".


    Hao Mi did not buy this exnation , for her everyone had a price , and Rudra selling 30% to Ethan was a testament to that , she thought Rudra was ying hard to get hence said .


    " Ohhh , so you sell to Ethan Grey but not to us? , What does Ethan Grey have that us triads don''t? Is it money? Hahahaha , let me tell you guild master , we can buy 10 Ethan Grey ''s if we want to , Is it the safe haven and the Elite tower in the upside? , Come to China ,e to Shanghai .... Come to our safe Haven , '' Shang Chi '' , you will live like kings there , soo let me rephrase my pricing. 30 Trillion dors for 30% of your guild , and you live like kings for the rest of your life. You still own 40% of your own guild , being the one having management rights, it''s a good deal , take it!?". Hao Mi extended her hand


    It was good that Rudra had nerves of steel ... A weaker man would fall to temptation. Even Mithun Ambani , his entire Ambani corporation was not worth 30 Trillion dors at the moment. Rudra could literally be one of the wealthiest persons on earth with this transaction. In the eyes of the Triads the Elites had a 100 trillion dor valuation , making it as sessful as thergest techpanies in the world ! It was a very high evaluation , as high as a few super guilds with 1% members.


    It was true that he sold his shares to Ethan Grey under pressure once. However , the Elites were not for sale . His dream had no price point to it. Hence politely Rudra said " Not interested ".


    This time Hao Mi was genuinely shocked .... She could notprehend , what exactly gave Rudra the confidence to reject her? What did he think the traids were? Some farmer conglomerate? She gave him such a sweet deal and he still had the audacity to reject?


    Fine , she thought , if the carrot won''t work , then she needed to pull out the stick !
