Legends of Runeterra

Chapter 746 Waiting for the opportunity

"Om~!"

The office door opened, and Wei, who had taken some time to change his clothes before coming in, walked in first.

Hilco, Renata, Victor...all the core members of Hefeng Industry have now come to this office.

In the main seat, Li En sat tightly on the sofa, while Zeli and the mysterious magic teacher Evelyn stood on his left and right.

"Lee En."

"Lord Li En."

"Wei, Uncle Vander, please take a seat."

Li En swept his gentle gaze over the crowd with a faint smile on his lips.

"I asked you all to come here in such a hurry this time because I may have to leave Shuangcheng soon. So I called you all here to listen to your progress and problems, and to tell you an important news."

After hearing this, everyone stood up, starting with Renata, who had already prepared the information.

"Master Li En, now Hefeng Industry has steadily entered various markets in Zaun, from food, clothing, housing and transportation to production and medical care. The lowest market share has reached 20%, and the highest medical market has reached 40%. But at the same time, 20% of the company's profits are spent on medical projects..."

Listening to Renata's report, Li En nodded slightly.

In Zaun, only a few alchemy barons provide medical services. Most of them treat the people of Zaun as an endless renewable resource. If one is corroded by the alchemical poison gas, they will just replace him with another one.

Today, under the leadership of top alchemist Singed, the medical services provided by Hefeng Industries have dominated the market with an unstoppable momentum.

Although the data shows that it is only 40%, in fact, Japanese medical treatment can be seen almost everywhere in Zaun.

Through a series of free medical treatment projects of Hefeng Industry, not only has the company's reputation become more and more popular, but it has also accumulated a lot of treatment experience, providing support for the realization of "Hexprosthesis".

As the heads of various departments finished their reports, it was soon the turn of the security department that Vander and Wei were in charge of.

Looking at Wei beside him, Vander nodded slightly at her. Seeing this, Wei stood up without fear.

"Li En, now within the jurisdiction of Hefeng Industry, the crime rate of all types remains below 5%, and the rate of serious incidents is controlled at 2%.

The Terrorist Mobile Team can reach any location within the jurisdiction within 3 minutes of receiving the message..."

"Well, you guys are doing great, a safe environment is the top priority, keep it up."

"no problem!"

After receiving Li En's approval, Wei couldn't help but raise the corners of his mouth.

“Everyone, I also understand the current situation of Hefeng Industry.

The company is what it is today thanks to the hard work of you and every employee..."

"Lord Li En, if it weren't for you..."

Li En raised his hand slightly, and Victor calmed down when he saw it.

"Victor, I know what you mean.

But I am only giving you and the company a slightly fairer competitive environment. What has really brought Hefeng Industry to where it is today is the unremitting efforts of each and every one of you.

And what you have to do next is the same - give the people of Zaun a chance, a chance to create a beautiful and happy life with their own hands."

“The road ahead may be long and arduous, but where there is a will there is a way.

Everyone, please follow me.”

"Yes, Master Li En!"

Everyone present stood up and responded to Li En with excitement. Among them, Ike, who had grown much taller, had a slightly red face with excitement.

If we were to ask who among the crowd has the deepest understanding of the changes brought about by Lee En, Ike is definitely one of the most profound people.

His parents, who had to work day and night and could not get enough food or warm clothes elsewhere, now have safe and stable jobs; the house that was leaking and infested with insects and rats is now clean, warm and comfortable.

Every day after studying in the laboratory, Ike would come home to see his smiling parents preparing a table full of meals that did not require him to eat first.

Others may have their own ideals and goals, but Ike joined Hefeng Industry and studied hard every day, all for the purpose of making Hefeng Industry flourish.

"Everyone, please take a seat."

"You should also know about the important news. General Anbesa of Noxus arrived in Piltover yesterday."

"Yes, sir. I wonder why she is here..."

"For Hextech."

"What!?"

Upon hearing this, Victor, Colin, and Ike, who were mainly responsible for the development of Hextech crystals, all showed worry on their faces.

"Don't worry, the information about Hefeng Industries has not been leaked. What Anbesa is interested in is the 'Hextech' of the Midalda family."

Researching Hextech crystals is the hottest topic in Piltover right now, but the specific results of Hefeng Industries have never been disclosed to the public.

The only external armor exposed was the one equipped on the terrorist mobile team, and it was adequately camouflaged.

Unless the core components are disassembled, even people of a certain level can see at first glance that it is a combination of alchemical technology and clockwork technology.

"This... Lord Li En, then Jace..."

Vander hesitated and asked with worry on his face.

"Mr. Vandel, you don't have to worry. When Jace and I worked together, the research progress at Hefeng Industries actually only involved the most basic part of Hextech crystals.

Lord Li En, this kind of progress that even the Piltover Research Institute may not directly invest in should not be enough for a Noxian general to covet, right?"

"of course."

Li En nodded and looked at everyone calmly.

“Regarding General Anbesa, given her current situation, she doesn’t have that much time to wait for the development of Hex Crystal.

Next, in Piltover, there will most likely be a vortex that will sweep up all the major families, and what we and Hefeng Industries need to do is to try not to get involved and let things develop.

Wait for the opportunity that may appear, the opportunity that belongs to Hefeng Industries and Zaun."

"Lord Li En, what you mean is..."

"Patience, Hilco. A journey of a hundred miles begins with a single step. Be patient."

"Yes, Lord Li... Lord Li En!"

Hilco clenched his hands tightly, trying to suppress the tremor in his voice.

From his teenage years, to working with Vander, to falling out after failure, Hilco had wasted most of his life pursuing this goal, and now it seemed to have finally appeared before his eyes.

In this situation, Hilco felt like his heart was about to jump out of his chest.

Apart from Hilco, everyone else present had different expressions.

With a gentle smile on his lips, Li En swept his calm gaze over everyone.

Gradually, everyone who was excited by the news calmed down.

"Gentlemen, this is not a reckoning, nor is it revenge.

When the time comes, all we need to do is to put Zaun on the same level as Piltover, and allow the people of Zaun to live safely and stably."

"Yes, Master Li En!"
