118: Chenmeng Chamber of Commerce
"Alright."
Su Chen smiled faintly, nodded, and then began to grill the meat earnestly again.
The next day.
The three of them went to see the rumored Biyou Pool, but it was not as beautiful as people said.
It was just a pool of water with many different colors inside.
To sum it up... it was average.
However, when going out for an excursion, the destination is actually not that important; sometimes the process is what matters most.
Because the result is only for a moment, but the process is long.
If one only focuses on the result, one will surely be disappointed, but if the process is good, whether the result is good or bad does not really matter.
In Su Chen's view, the process of their journey was excellent.
For a long time after that, Su Chen did not return to Mount Wangyun but continued to travel around Qianshan County.
He traveled almost all over Qianshan County, and Ruoxi and Lin Yimeng followed him the entire time.
Although many of the famous scenic spots in Qianshan County were quite ordinary, the three of them saw many incredibly beautiful landscapes along the way.
After half a year passed like this, Su Chen returned to Mount Wangyun, and Lin Yimeng went with him.
Because she needed to handle the handover with the Su Family; from then on, the Chenmeng Chamber of Commerce would belong to the Su Family as a vassal.
Moreover, this was not an ordinary vassal status; it was a direct vassalage, meaning the entire Chenmeng Chamber of Commerce belonged to the Su Family, rather than simply being affiliated with them.
Su Qingyun smiled and said, "The Su Family was just preparing to create a chamber of commerce to control the commerce of the Eastern Region. Since we have the Chenmeng Chamber of Commerce, it can save us some trouble."
The commerce of the Eastern Region is a massive fortune, and naturally, the Su Family wanted to hold it in their hands.
This way, the Su Family's status would be even more consolidated.
Although the Su Family has Su Chen, there will inevitably be periods in the future when Su Chen might not be guarding the Su Family, and at that time, the Su Family will need to be self-reliant.
In the end.
The Su Family sent a few people to assist Lin Yimeng, which was equivalent to announcing that the Chenmeng Chamber of Commerce belonged to the Su Family, making things much more convenient in the future.
With the support of the Su Family, it was only a matter of time before the Chenmeng Chamber of Commerce became the number one chamber of commerce in the Eastern Region.
The summit of Mount Wangyun.
Lin Yimeng stood on the peak, gazing into the distance.
Is this the scenery Su Chen sees every day?
Lin Yimeng's expression was somewhat solemn; this feeling of looking down upon all the mountains made her feel emotional.
When will she be able to stand beside Su Chen?
She felt a bit discouraged in her heart. The more she learned about Su Chen, the more inferior she felt, always sensing that she was simply not a match for him.
The gap between the two of them was truly too vast.
In fact, back in Qianshan County, Ruoxi had often hinted to her that she should make a bold move.
Lin Yimeng was not stupid; she was very intelligent. Although she was nervous in front of Su Chen, she understood many things.
She did not express herself directly or take the initiative to pursue him; the fundamental reason was that she was unwilling to do so.
Although she was just a little girl in front of Su Chen, Lin Yimeng was essentially a strong-willed woman. She hoped to express her love only when she could stand beside Su Chen as an equal.
"Young Lord Su, wait for me."
"One day, I will be able to stand proudly before you."
Lin Yimeng turned her head to look at the courtyard where Su Chen was, took a deep breath, and then turned to leave Mount Wangyun.
In the courtyard.
Su Chen, who was lying on a chair, opened his eyes slightly, looked in the direction Lin Yimeng had left, but soon fell into silence again.
...
Qianshan City.
The first thing Lin Yimeng did upon returning was to summon all the chambers of commerce in Qianshan County.
However, this time she was no longer timid; she firmly demanded that they all arrive on time.
It just so happened that the major chambers of commerce were gathered together today to discuss the development of the Qianshan City market, and after receiving the message, they were all filled with anger.
"Damn it, this little girl Lin Yimeng, her tone is actually so arrogant."
"Is she treating us like her subordinates? And 'must arrive by noon tomorrow'? I'm going to go see tomorrow what kind of guts this Lin Yimeng has to dare speak to us like this."
"This Chenmeng Chamber of Commerce does have potential; why don't we take this opportunity to wipe it out?"
"Very good. I also feel that the Chenmeng Chamber of Commerce is becoming too much of a threat. If we let it continue to survive in Qianshan County, it might threaten us in the future."
The top-ranked chambers of commerce in Qianshan County all decided to wait until tomorrow to wipe out the Chenmeng Chamber of Commerce controlled by Lin Yimeng.
Of course, only the top fifteen chambers of commerce received the notice.
In fact, they had started plotting to wipe out the Chenmeng Chamber of Commerce long before, but because of the sudden arrival of the Jiang Family, they were forced to abandon that plan.
After all, at that time, Jiang Huai was very fond of Lin Yimeng, and no one dared to offend the Jiang Family.
But now, the Jiang Family has already been destroyed.
Plus, the Chenmeng Chamber of Commerce had been very low-key recently, and Lin Yimeng seemed to be away from the chamber often, so many of its assets had been encroached upon.
With the threat removed, they naturally no longer had the intention to continue trying to wipe out the Chenmeng Chamber of Commerce.
This is what merchants are like; they only do things that are advantageous to themselves.
However, Lin Yimeng's current arrogance made everyone angry again.
If Lin Yimeng stopped acting out, they would naturally be too lazy to waste time on her.
Just then, a fat person said slowly.
"Everyone, my son Guang has long admired Lin Yimeng. When the Chenmeng Chamber of Commerce is destroyed, please hand Lin Yimeng over to me."
The person speaking was He Yun, the president of the Shanhai Chamber of Commerce, a powerhouse at the Middle Stage of Entering Dao.
The Shanhai Chamber of Commerce was also the number one chamber of commerce in Qianshan County, with a solid Foundation and immense power.
He Guang was the young master of the Shanhai Chamber of Commerce and could be considered young and promising. He was known as the 'Young Merchant King' and had managed the chamber of commerce in an orderly fashion at a young age.
Others heard this and all chimed in with smiles.
The Shanhai Chamber of Commerce held a pivotal position in Qianshan County. Since he had spoken, others naturally had no reason to object.
Moreover, Lin Yimeng was just a woman; although she was beautiful, there was no need to fight over her.
Everyone present was a leader of a top chamber of commerce in Qianshan County. Although the Chenmeng Chamber of Commerce had a little influence, in their eyes, it would not be difficult to wipe it out.
...
The next day.
The major chambers of commerce all arrived for the appointment, but they were accompanied by many experts. These people wore cold expressions, possessed powerful internal Qi, and had clearly come with ill intentions.
A group of people slowly walked into the chamber of commerce and soon entered the main hall of the Chenmeng Chamber of Commerce.
As soon as the heads of the major chambers of commerce entered, they saw Lin Yimeng standing above. She didn't even have the intention to stand up and welcome them, and immediately someone spoke up unhappily:
"President Lin, you certainly have a big ego."
