Tree King: What? I've become the Abundant Pharmacist?

Chapter 161 Principles? The principles are on our side.

After seeing these two vines, Bronya thought a lot.

She finally faced her own heart and understood everything.

This contract must not be signed.

If Belloborg isn't in the hands of the Belloborg people, is it still Belloborg?

Therefore, we refuse to sign.

After thinking it through, Bronya clenched her fists and walked towards the office.

A group of ministers hurriedly followed Bronya, also worried about Berloberg's future.

Bronya would occasionally come to the office.

Pushing open the door, Toppa was sitting in a chair, teasing Zhang Zhang, clearly having been waiting for a long time.

“I’m sorry to have kept you waiting, Miss Topa,” Bronya said first.

Upon seeing Bronya arrive, Toppa immediately stood up.

“Not long ago, I just arrived myself, Miss Bronya.” Toppa bowed slightly in respect.

Bronya was somewhat surprised by Toppa's very respectful tone.

Although Topa was very polite before, he was still inferior, so Topa's attitude was somewhat arrogant.

But what's going on now? It suddenly feels like Toppa's attitude has completely changed 180 degrees.

“Ahem, well, we’ve already thought things through regarding the previous treaty,” Bronya continued.

“Oh, that’s why I came to see Miss Bronya.” Topa said immediately.

“Belloberg’s loan has been completely forgiven, and that treaty has been nullified. There’s no need to worry about Miss Bronya.”

“I know, Miss Topa, so we’ve decided that we cannot accept this treaty and will absolutely not compromise or sign it… Wait? What did you say?” Bronya hadn’t finished speaking when she suddenly froze.

Bronya: ? ? ?

Strange, why is this different from the script I imagined?

Topa continued with a smile, "Yes, you heard me right, Miss Bronya."

“Belloberg’s loan has been completely forgiven, no... it can’t be said to be completely forgiven, but rather transferred to Director Eve. As for your relationship with Director Eve, we are all aware of it, so it is essentially a complete forgiveness.”

"In addition, there were some problems with the treaty I provided to you before. This was my oversight, please don't mind."

"Furthermore, this is a new trade contract. After signing, the company will incorporate Belloberg into the space trade system and will also grant Belloberg trade preferences for developing planets."

What do you think?

Topa grinned and took out a contract, placing it in front of Bronya.

The above content concerns the cosmic trade market.

"This..." Bronya's mind went blank for a moment.

From Topa's words, she seemed to hear a word.

"You just said, Director Eve?" Bronya asked, quite puzzled.

"Yes, your mother, Miss Eve, is now an honorary director of Interstellar Peace Corporation, so you know."

Topa gave Bronya a wink.

"Director, Director???" Bronya's mind went blank again.

Mom, you didn't mention you had this identity before.

If I had known this would happen, then what was the point of all those brainstorming sessions and verbal battles these past few days?

“Alright, we’re family now, this contract is guaranteed to be fine, Miss… uh, cough cough, Great Guardian.” Toppa placed the contract in front of Bronya.

Bronya ignored Topa's explanation and picked up the contract to examine it carefully.

Even though she said that, she was still a little worried.

After carefully reading the contract and confirming that there were no hidden traps, Bronya signed it with some skepticism.

“Alright, Miss Bronya, then my work is done.” Topa put away the contract, stood up, and stretched.

"In the next few days, other people from the company will come to Belloberg to continue discussing the next steps of the cooperation. In addition, Belloberg will also provide interstellar subsidies, which will be approved in a few days."

“Okay, okay, Miss Topa.”

"Then goodbye."

Topa smiled, waved, and walked out of the office.

Bronya is still down.

The problem that had been troubling everyone at Bellberg was resolved with just two sentences?

At this moment, the ministers who had been waiting at the door saw Toppa leave and rushed in.

"How is it, Great Guardian?"

"Did you sign the contract?"

"Alas, there's no hope for Belloberg..."

"Foolish! Signing a contract is the right thing to do!"

In an instant, the two groups started arguing again.

"Quiet." Bronya frowned, her tone somewhat displeased.

"The contract was indeed signed, but it's not the same contract as before."

“We have reached a trade agreement with Interstellar Peace Corporation, and they have also promised interstellar subsidies.”

“In addition, Belloberg’s loan has been completely waived,” Bronya said.

"Wh-what??"

These words immediately shocked all the ministers.

How can this be?

Why would the company be so kind?

This is a huge sum of money, so how could the company possibly give it up?

"Lady Bronya, are you... are you sure this is all true?" the minister asked incredulously.

“Of course.” Bronya nodded.

“I have already signed a contract with Miss Topa, here is a copy.”

Bronya took out the contract she had just signed.

The ministers were shocked after reading it.

I can't believe it's all true!

"But why did the company's attitude change so quickly? Doesn't this violate the company's principles?" Some people still didn't understand.

This isn't in the company's best interest, is it? Capital is profit-driven.

Bronya raised her head and said proudly, "This may indeed go against the company's principles of interest."

"But this time, the principles are on our side."

Hearing Bronya's words, the ministers were still quite puzzled, but no one paid much attention to it.

After all, the matter has been resolved, and Belloberg has ushered in a new turning point.

"Oh, right!" Bronya suddenly remembered something.

I haven't thanked Eve's mother yet.

He had originally intended to show off by not telling her, but it turned out she had been silently watching him the whole time.

Bronya felt a surge of warmth in her heart.

She immediately opened the Void Terminal to try and contact Eve to meet.

But the Void Terminal sent a message first.

"We'll be leaving now, Bronya. I believe you will be an excellent Highguardian, so I'm entrusting Beloberg to you."

Of course, we will come back if we have time.

Contact me anytime, Bronya.

【Eve, stay.】

Upon seeing this message, Bronya was filled with emotion.

She walked to the window and looked up at the sky.

Although she couldn't see much, she knew that her mother was about to set sail again.

After all, Belleberg was her whole life, and this was just one stop on Eve's long journey.

Looking forward to our next meeting, Mom Eve.

May this journey ultimately lead to the stars.
