Chapter 38: Brother Xian, Hop On!
Next, Wu Xian also controlled Brother Pillar to strike a few handsome poses.
One hand with an ion firearm, one hand with an energy battle axe—just ask if that’s handsome or not?
“Brother, what do you think?” Wu Xian asked with a smile.
“This damn thing… it’s actually a combat-type mechanical scroll painting?” Brother was shocked and uncertain. “What’s the price? Which company produced it?”
“The price isn’t set yet, but it’s definitely cheaper than those so-called luxury cars.” Wu Xian smiled and said, “Soon, Tang’s Vehicle Company will launch it with great fanfare.”
“Tang’s Vehicles?” Brother was shocked again. “If this gets released, what are the other car companies even playing at? They might as well go bankrupt directly.”
“Brother thinks so too?”
“Of course,” Brother pointed at Brother Pillar, his words a bit crude. “It’s already like this—how are the other car companies supposed to compete?”
…
After exiting the instance, Wu Xian didn’t go home. Instead, he called Tang Beng on video.
“How is it, Brother Tang? Can we cooperate on this vehicle?”
Wu Xian briefly showed Brother Pillar’s vehicle form with the camera.
“A heavy truck? It looks decent,” Tang Beng said, full of surprise. “Come directly to the company to talk.”
He then sent the location of Tang’s Vehicle Company.
Soon after, at Tang’s Vehicle Company in the New City District, Tang Beng had been waiting for a while.
“So big—Little Xianzi, not bad~!” Tang Beng said with a laugh as he got into the passenger seat. “Head to the factory workshop. I’ll have the worker masters test the performance.”
In the vast factory, Brother Pillar stood out conspicuously.
The worker masters who came to test couldn’t help but be curious.
After a series of tests, they praised Brother Pillar’s performance endlessly.
“At such a young age, to design such a high-quality vehicle model—talent!” One master craftsman couldn’t hide his admiration. “Young Master, where did you find such a talent?”
Tang Beng chuckled and waved his hand, asking, “Engineer Gao, what do you think is an appropriate price for this vehicle?”
“The civilian heavy truck market is very small and has always been dominated by the Pang Family,” the master craftsman called Engineer Gao pondered. “To break into the market, the price definitely needs to be pressed down. I think around 250,000 is appropriate.”
In this world, because of the【 spatial bracelet】’s existence, the freight market is very small.
Anyone with spiritual power cultivation ability, equipped with an ordinary spatial bracelet, can handle most freight work.
Therefore, the production tool attributes of large trucks have been greatly weakened.
But under certain specific conditions, large trucks still have irreplaceable roles.
Tang Beng nodded in approval and turned to ask Wu Xian, “What’s the cost?”
“For a copper scroll one-star rubbing, it’s a bit over 100,”
“It’s just a freight vehicle—a copper scroll one-star rubbing is enough,” Tang Beng laughed. “As long as we break into the market later, it’ll be a stable income.”
But Wu Xian revealed a meaningful smile. “But I think we can add another zero.”
“…” Tang Beng was speechless with a black line. “Little Xianzi, don’t mess around. It’s just an ordinary vehicle—you think it’s a proper scroll painting?”
The worker masters nearby also burst into laughter.
Sure, you can price it however you want—the key is having someone to buy it!
Wu Xian smiled without speaking. With a slight movement of his mind, the red-and-blue heavy truck in front of him began to deform with clanking sounds, transforming into Brother Pillar’s form.
The factory instantly fell silent, with Tang Beng and the others dumbfounded.
“What now?” Wu Xian asked with a smile.
After a brief silence, the worker masters let out waves of gasps.
“Oh my god, it turned into a humanoid combat machine?”
“Am I seeing things?”
“Young Master, what’s the background of this little brother?” Engineer Gao’s eyes lit up. “Could he be a genius from the art studio?”
Tang Beng was equally stunned, staring with wide eyes in disbelief.
“This this this… this is a combat-type humanoid mechanical scroll painting?”
Wu Xian neither confirmed nor denied. “I’ve already tested the combat capability—it’s no worse than those mechanical scroll paintings on the market. The key is it can also be used as a vehicle.”
“Hiss~~~” Engineer Gao took a deep breath, excited. “If this is equipped to other-dimensional mines, how are the other companies supposed to compete?”
Tang Beng naturally realized this too and immediately called his father.
Wu Xian, on the other hand, was somewhat amused.
The mighty Brother Pillar, the Autobots leader—his most suitable place is actually a mine?
“Little Xianzi, you’re a real genius!”
Tang Beng looked up at Brother Pillar, his heart unable to calm down for a long time.
Such an exquisite, masterful mechanical scroll painting was actually created by a young man who had only recently started learning mechanical scroll painting principles.
Could this be scroll painting talent?
If it were him, he couldn’t conceive such a prodigy-level scroll painting even in his next life.
For a moment, the way he looked at Wu Xian became complicated. He had originally thought of it as just indirectly funding Wu Xian, treating it as angel investment.
Who would have thought that Wu Xian, just starting out, would bring him such a huge shock.
He could already foresee what kind of revenue this scroll painting would bring to the family, and what kind of change and disaster it would bring to the entire industry.
In the end, it was their Tang Family that benefited from Wu Xian.
“Today’s matter is classified as Group top secret. If anyone leaks it, you know the consequences.”
Tang Beng sternly scanned the worker masters present and warned solemnly.
Looking at Wu Xian again, his heart still couldn’t calm down.
He remembered that not long ago when they first met, Wu Xian was a poor kid who couldn’t even afford the art studio registration fee and had to pick up water bottles to subsidize his family.
But how long had it been? He was already high-end talent who could bring industry change!
The key was that Wu Xian had just stepped into the scroll painting domain—his future potential was limitless.
If this got out, the major business rivals would go crazy scrambling for him, right?
It could only be said that Little Sister was truly the Tang Family’s little lucky star—her eyesight was too sharp.
At this moment, he even started to feel fortunate that Wu Xian couldn’t afford the registration fee back then. If Wu Xian had become an art studio scroll painting student, how would it have been their Tang Family’s turn to hit this “lottery”?
Soon after, Tang Family patriarch Tang Zhenghong hurried over.
Although he had already learned the general situation over the phone, seeing Brother Pillar with his own eyes still left him shocked speechless.
Not long ago, his precious daughter’s【 Moon God Heavenly Rider】 had already shown him the hope of the Tang Family’s rise. And now, this mechanical scroll painting brought by Wu Xian would undoubtedly add wings to the Tang Family’s subsequent development, making it unstoppable.
In a daze, Tang Zhenghong’s heart skipped a beat as he suddenly realized something.
Strictly speaking, his precious daughter’s【 Moon God Heavenly Rider】 seemed inseparable from the young man in front of him.
After all, without the【 Jade Rabbit Pounding Medicine】, his precious daughter couldn’t have conceived a mechanical scroll painting with heaven-defying potential like the【 Moon God Heavenly Rider】.
“Tsk~ What a coincidence? Come on~, go to Uncle’s house and sit. Us two will chat slowly.” Tang Zhenghong’s gaze was fervent as he put his arm around Wu Xian’s shoulders, his whole body trembling. “Little Bengzi, drive!”
“Yes, Father.” Tang Beng understood and immediately released his luxury ride, personally opening the door for Wu Xian. “Brother Xian, please get in.”
One sentence: Little Xianzi was worth it!
At this moment, Wu Xian was their Tang Family’s God of Wealth.
“By the way, Nephew, what do you want to eat or drink? I’ll have the butler arrange it for you.”
After getting in the car, Tang Zhenghong was still excited, hugging Wu Xian’s shoulders as if afraid Wu Xian would jump out and run.
“No no no, just a casual meal is fine. The main thing is the cooperation matter.”
Wu Xian felt extremely uncomfortable all over. As someone who had lived two lives as an ordinary citizen, when had he ever enjoyed this kind of treatment?
At most, back in the year his college entrance exam scores were decent, he felt a small highlight of life from his parents.
“No problem~ Uncle will arrange it for you,” Tang Zhenghong turned to his driving son. “By the way, Little Bengzi, call your mom and ask if she’s free to come back. Say there’s a distinguished guest.”
“Got it.”
Tang Beng didn’t hesitate and quickly tried to contact his mother.
