Smart… that's great!" Qi Jun exclaimed.
Before he transmigrated, Qi Jun had bought a beat-up car, but he certainly hadn't enjoyed such intelligent features!
"Serving you is Taibai's most fundamental duty!"
"Your positive feedback is the best affirmation for Taibai!"
Taibai's voice echoed in the car, bringing a smile to Qi Jun's face.
Speaking of which, Qi Jun had initially considered upgrading Taibai to a higher level of intelligence, even transforming it into an intelligent life form similar to Vision.
However, after thinking about Ultron, Qi Jun abandoned the idea.
Taibai's current level of intelligence was actually… the best. It could handle most of his problems, such as keeping the entire estate in perfect order, without him having to worry about it suddenly wanting to destroy the world or causing other trouble.
Although, in Qi Jun's opinion, Ultron's creation was very likely due to Thanos manipulating the Mind Stone from behind the scenes.
After all, the Mind Stone had been in Thanos's hands for many years, and as a being with regular strength at the Skyfather level, or even… beyond, Qi Jun didn't believe Thanos wouldn't tamper with the Mind Stone.
But this also further highlighted the tragedy of Tony Stark, didn't it…
"Give me directions to… the group headquarters!"
"Yes, sir!"
Vroom vroom!
"Let's go!"
Stomping on the accelerator, the Knight XV immediately shot forward!

Amidst envious gazes, Qi Jun drove the Knight XV at lightning speed to the group's headquarters building in Queens!
Qi Jun didn't want to go to Manhattan and be neighbors with Tony Stark.
Qi Jun's strength wasn't yet formidable enough to openly confront the Ancient One and Odin.
Before obtaining the Tesseract, Qi Jun also didn't want to disrupt too much of the storyline.
Although Tony Stark had now blacklisted S.H.I.E.L.D., he certainly wouldn't join the Avengers.
But as long as Qi Jun didn't disrupt Thor's storyline, then even if most of the plot of "Avengers 1" didn't happen, Loki attacking New York with the Chitauri army would still occur.
Activating the Tesseract required a huge amount of energy, and where else could he find it but Stark Tower in Manhattan, New York!
Qi Jun didn't want his own… tower to be destroyed once, even if it was just a playful creation in his eyes.
But he could play with his own toys however he wanted; no one else was allowed to destroy them!
…Although Tony Stark used entirely unknown forces behind the scenes.
But… the ability to directly purchase an entire building in Queens as a headquarters still made Qi Jun realize.
What it meant to be obscenely rich. This was being obscenely rich!
"Sir, all the preliminary preparations for… have been completed."
"Currently, two projects are underway: one is to acquire the weapon research and manufacturing department from Stark Industries through normal commercial means."
"The second is to acquire a pharmaceutical research, manufacturing, and production company that owns its own manufacturing plant."
"Progress is currently good."
"However, the remaining funds are running low."
"…requires more capital investment."
Harry Henrys, interim general manager of…, a high-level Wall Street elite secretly trained by the Stark family!
But Qi Jun knew that this guy had another nickname: 'Stark Family Loyalist'!
"Understood," Qi Jun said.
"New funds will be deposited into the company account soon."
"You can act as interim manager for now. Once the new CEO takes over and settles in, you can return."
Qi Jun waved his hand, dismissing him.
"Yes, sir!"
For Harry Henrys, when the family sent him to help Qi Jun establish the… Group, he just had to do it well.
For a loyalist specially trained since childhood, there was no need to know why, only to execute orders.
Harry Henrys bowed to Qi Jun in a subservient manner before exiting the chairman's office.
"Tsk tsk."
"This evil capitalist world."
"These big families and big players."
"It's already 2024, and they still have this 'loyalist' thing going on!"
Seeing the door close, Qi Jun clicked his tongue and sighed.
"Taibai, you heard everything, right?"
"Transfer ten billion US dollars to the group's account."
"Once everything is on track, it will be time for… to make its name known worldwide!"
Tapping his fingers on the table, Qi Jun said into the air.
"Understood, sir!"
"Sir, the funds have already been deposited into the company account."
Taibai's capabilities were similar to Jarvis's; these… operations were quite simple.
Since Qi Jun returned to Earth yesterday, he had instructed Taibai to start transferring funds from those… dormant bank accounts.
