88: Chapter 47 Reuniting with an Old Friend

Wanjian Immortal City is not as vast as Fusheng Immortal City, but its various buildings look sharp and menacing.

As Chen Xuan walked through it, he could be said to have experienced Sword Cultivator culture.

The most classic trait is that Sword Cultivators walk with their noses in the air.

Looking like they are third only to Heaven and Earth.

Therefore, it is really easy to tell whether one is a Sword Cultivator or not.

He arrived at the largest restaurant.

Chen Xuan, neither humble nor arrogant, was guided by the waiter to a private room.

He pushed open the door with a calm and composed demeanor.

Closing the door of the private room, two Foundation Establishment Cultivators were sitting inside.

"Good, good, good!"

"Well, well, you thick-eyebrowed, big-eyed President Liu Yishou."

"You've actually reached Foundation Establishment!"

In his past life, he was only at the Late-stage Qi Refining, but his Spiritual Root was much better than Chen Xuan's.

It could be said that he relied on the friendship of his past life to reach Foundation Establishment.

The other person was not the Foundation Establishment Cultivator Yao Zhao; he looked quite unfamiliar.

"Greetings, two Seniors. This Junior is Yun Qi. I have previously exchanged messages with you both."

The three of them exchanged some basic information through the identity tokens of the Qingyuan Chamber of Commerce.

Chen Xuan claimed that he had obtained this Qingyuan token while traveling by chance.

The other two surprisingly had no intention of coveting it.

They only arranged to meet.

"Fellow Daoist Yun, please sit. I am President Liu Yishou." President Liu Yishou said enthusiastically, "The cost-effective plan you mentioned earlier is almost exactly the same as what Fellow Daoist Wang said in the past. You both are the real geniuses of business."

"It is a pity that Fellow Daoist Yun has already joined the Liuyang Sword Sect."

It is a real pity that such a talent is not from the Fusheng Sect, President Liu Yishou thought.

"This is Fellow Daoist Yao Shuang of the Yao Clan."

Yao Shuang, who was stern and humorless, cupped his hands and said, "Greetings, Fellow Daoist Yun."

Today, the three "Presidents" had officially met.

As the core and the backing of the Qingyuan Chamber of Commerce, the Longnan Liu Family would naturally not lose their seat.

President Liu Yishou was naturally the initial representative.

Haven't you seen that he has already reached Foundation Establishment? This is the best arrangement.

As for Yao Shuang, Chen Xuan was not surprised at all; this was the second Foundation Establishment to appear from the Yao Clan.

Yao Zhao was the Foundation Establishment Cultivator who guarded the marketplace back then, so they had a connection.

Now, looking at the old friends with whom he had intricate ties, and thinking about himself, he had to say that time passed really quickly.

As a veteran of the business world, President Liu Yishou immediately said, "Since we are all here, we can decide the future development of the Chamber of Commerce in this small room."

"Our Liu Family's opinion is to stick to the Southern Region and do the business in the Southern Region well; that is enough."

"Of course, President Wang's intention before was to open up the Central Province route and the Central Province trade route."

"Now, the sea route is out of the question. A trade route has been opened, but it can only be called a 'rat route,' secretly smuggling from the ground to the Central Province."

"Without Golden Core Cultivators to kill these Golden Core Yao Race for us, I am afraid we will never be able to open up a real trade route in our lifetime."

"In the past life, the President died while opening the trade route."

President Liu Yishou began to recount the past and explained the reason.

The Golden Core of the Liu Family would not risk their own lives to open up a trade route for future profits.

As a Golden Core, they have already lived for seven or eight hundred years; why would they need to take risks?

As long as he is there, the Liu Family will prosper for one day.

Yao Shuang also nodded and said, "The Yao Clan holds the same opinion."

"The Chamber of Commerce can innovate well. Relying on our core Spirit Beasts and the supporting Bloodline-upgrading Spirit Medicine, we can completely maintain the largest scale of the Chamber of Commerce in the entire Southern Region."

"At the same time, there is the ascension spirit liquid that all Loose Cultivators flock to."

"This thing is even more precious than Spirit Stones."

As he spoke, Yao Shuang actually took out a jade bottle from his Storage Ring.

It was clearly the ascension spirit liquid.

"What do you think, Fellow Daoist Yun?"

The future strategy of the Chamber of Commerce must be decided by the three of them.

Only then can it be promulgated.

The original strategy was to open up trade routes.

It spent countless manpower and material resources, and even within the Fusheng Sect, there were voices of dissatisfaction.

It affected the overall profit.

But under Chen Xuan's silver-tongued persuasion, it was still pushed forward.

Now that President Wang is gone, the right to speak has naturally been handed over to the other two Presidents who hold the Qingyuan tokens.

Added to Chen Xuan's current identity as Yun Qi, they completely formed the upper echelon of the entire Qingyuan Chamber of Commerce.

"Are you two Fellow Daoists trying to get me to agree to the management strategy of sticking to the Southern Region?"

Chen Xuan said.

"Naturally."

Neither of them evaded the question.

This is the way to maximize profits.

But seeing Chen Xuan shake his head was unexpected for both of them.

Chen Xuan accidentally obtained the Qingyuan token, which could be ignored.

But why would he oppose something that is obviously beneficial to him?

They both certainly knew Chen Xuan's identity—a Golden Core Disciple. The The Three Sects exchange information, and information about such Prodigies must be shared to avoid accidental harm.

However, the two of them really could not understand why Chen Xuan would oppose it.

"Actually, when I obtained the token, I also received a suicide note from President Wang."

"Expanding to the Central Province and becoming the number one Chamber of Commerce in the world was President Wang's lifelong ideal."

"Since I have obtained this token, I must follow the will of Heaven and bear the Karma."

"Therefore, the strategy of the Chamber of Commerce should still be primarily about expansion. As for the foundation laid by President Wang, we will continue to maintain it."

"After the ascension spirit liquid comes out, the Chamber of Commerce should be able to achieve absolute monopoly."

"I have also reviewed the Chamber of Commerce's financial reports. Previous competitors had no room for survival under our low-price strategy."

"They were either wiped out directly or retreated to become small, local Chambers of Commerce."

"Now that our Qingyuan Chamber of Commerce is already an iconic large Chamber of Commerce, we have our responsibilities. We should not only contribute intelligence to the The Three Sects but also open up paths for all Cultivators in the Southern Region."

Chen Xuan spoke eloquently.

Without the slightest embarrassment.

He casually took the ascension spirit liquid that Yao Shuang had taken out and put it into his Storage Pouch.

He revealed a faint smile.

President Liu Yishou's smile had already appeared, but now it froze directly on his face.

This guy! What is he talking about!

What does he mean by inheriting his will!

Yes, President Liu Yishou admits that no one in this world is better at marketing and doing business than President Wang.

But after so many years, he had long forgotten the figure of his old friend.

All he wants to do is cope with the demands of the Liu Family and the demands of the Fusheng Sect.

And provide specific cultivation materials to the The Three Sects.

Ensnaring the world, not letting restricted materials flow too much into the outside world.

This is the unwritten rule for the Qingyuan Chamber of Commerce's existence and being tacitly allowed by the The Three Sects to grow.

But now, this guy!

Actually wants to continue exploring!

What kind of joke is this!

"No!" President Liu Yishou refused categorically.

"If Yao Shuang and I both refuse, this proposal will be enforced."

"Your authority can at most mobilize one-fifth of the manpower and material resources to open up the trade route."

President Liu Yishou looked at Chen Xuan, issuing an ultimatum.

Damn it!

Unexpectedly, the old friend from back then is now the first to betray the revolution.

The strategy had not been changed before because the rules of the Qingyuan Chamber of Commerce stipulated that all three tokens must be presented to make any changes.

And once they don't persist...

The supply of Spirit Beasts from the Wang family side will directly collapse.

You must know that the core supply of materials is handled by Wang Lingxue and the others.

The precious legacy left by President Wang.

Chen Xuan looked at Yao Shuang.

Yao Shuang smiled:

"No!"

"I agree."

President Liu Yishou revealed a smug smile.

"I agree to open up the trade route."

President Liu Yishou could not laugh...
