BXBX NOVEL Chapter 42 - Buying Server Farm 4
The devil can cite scripture for his purpose...

Hearing the word PAR, the expression of the three men changed. "What do you say?" The young man on the left side of his feet, raising his voice a bit.
"Oh, come on, don\'t tell me you don\'t know the PAR are on inspection run. Anyway, we talk later." Emma pretended to leave.
"Young man. I didn\'t say you can leave." The elderly man said authoritatively.
>>Hmm… I know what you did.
Emma ignored Lily and responded casually. "We\'ve nothing to discuss anymore. You\'re not selling your server farm to our company. So I got nothing to do here anymore."
"Tell us about the PAR. If what you say is true. We may consider your offer."
"Oh! If that\'s the case, I\'m ready to oblige." Emma smiled. "Deep in the inner cycle. It has come to the notice of our higher-up that the PAR is making an anonymous inspection. So, every top organization is doing a deep clean right now."
"When was this?"
"About two weeks ago."
"Can we verify what you\'re saying?" The young man smirked.
"Don\'t you have a means for that?" Emma gave the young man a skeptical glance and face the elderly man. "I will wait here for you to check for the authenticity of the intel. If you find it genuine. Let finalize the deal. ASAP." He sat down leisurely.
Hearing the confidence in Emma\'s voice. The three men looked at each other. Instantly, the young man on the right side went out of the room.
While the other men looked at Emma suspiciously. After a few minutes, the young man returned to the room with a gloomy expression.
Seeing the expression on the young man\'s face. Emma was delighted inside, but he didn\'t let it appear on his face.
Everything he did was a bluff. While also depending on Zeus to pull the trick. Now, the expression on the young man\'s face tells they had bought the bluff.
>>Seriously… You\'re becoming more like me. Do I need to teach you anymore?
Emma wanted to puke out blood when he heard Lily\'s abysmal word. \'Shut up. What do you teach me?\'
>> Eh! Eh! Now you achieve little success. You want to be rude to this mama. Hmm?
\'Why not. I\'m your Grandpa.\'
"Friend, the intel you share with us had been confirmed. And I appreciate it. But that server farm is paramount to our business." The elderly man replied.
"I know. But you can achieve it with smaller servers. That server farm is meant for the heavy flow of bandwidth, not the infinitesimal inflow of bandwidth. Those that ask you for those heavy servers are probably ripping you off. More also, they may have installed some backdoor without you noticing. That server is too big for you to manage or notice any backdoor activity. Thus, with my bid. You can secure your business and incurring no loss."
Emma eloquently splashed numerous reasons to convince them.
Listening to Emma unrefutably words. The room descended into perfect silence. All the men were looking at each other faces. No one attempts to talk.
Besides, the three men were in deep thought while Emma looked at them with a casual gaze. After a few minutes, the elderly man cleared his throat.
"Young man. Give us some minute, let me discuss it with our people."
>>Your trick worked.
Emma nodded with a tight lip smile.
With that, the three men left the room.
…

Inside the sanctuary, Emma was back in his study. He stood in front of the board, looking at the bunch of equations with a slight smile on his face.
>> You\'re quite happy right now…. Hmm? Don\'t forget it because of my teaching. You\'re where you are today. So don\'t forget to worship me.
\'Worship your head. You\'ve yet to realize how lucky you are for having an outstanding host like me? Tsk. Tsk. Ungrateful thing.\'
>>… Speechless.
[[Moving of the server farms had all begun.]] Zeus informed.
Emma nodded, not taking his eyes away from the board. "When will the server started running?"
[[ In three days\' time.]]
>> You\'re the ungrateful bastard. That was my line. You don\'t say that to me. You hear, next time, you wait for me to say that to you.
Emma rolled his eyes. \'Now, we are to fight for lines. Seriously. Are you like 12?\'
>> Don\'t question me. Just do what I ask of you.
\'If you want me to follow that. Tell me what was wrong with my equation.\'
>> Tsk. I know you couldn\'t do it without my help.
\'Will you tell me or not?\' Emma snapped.
>> I can\'t. There are many protocols in the primary system restricting me.
Emma furrowed. He thought for a few seconds. \'Point to the places where I need to focus. I believe that shouldn\'t be a problem.\'
>>… That… What an idea… But I hate it when you are right.
Lily pointed to the various equations that were wrong without giving an answer. After listening to all the errors in his equation.
Emma threw himself into his study. He worked like a madman. Time passes and Emma receives many notifications from Lily. But he was lost in his work to check the notification.
3 days later.
All the gangs or organizations where Emma purchase the servers\' farm were looking for Emma. But to their dismay. Emma was like a ghost. All their plans had gone down the drain.
The losses they incur from losing the servers were not small. Their operation went down by half while they receive many complaints from their users.
Besides, the price Emma bought the servers was not even half the price the organization purchase them. Emma duped them. What a loss! They were furious and ready to do anything to lay their hand on Emma.
In a backward place like Vulture City. It was difficult to have such servers. They needed to be imported from other cities with exorbitant prices. So, it\'s near impossible to set up the server farm in a short time.
"Mr. Thomason! You are dead!"
