Chapter 149: Chapter 149: Sikong Tu's Request_1
Next to the Qiankun Trading Company, the place is bustling and crowded. The administrators standing here are attracting a lot of attention.
"Could it be that the Qiankun Trading Company knew that I, the emperor, was coming here and has sent the administrators out to meet me? It certainly must be. Just recently, I negotiated a big deal with the Qiankun Trading Company. Perhaps they are waiting for me!"
At this time, a majestic middle-aged man dressed in a brocade robe arrived. He had already reached the Spirit-Nurturing Realm. He was the emperor of the Tianlin Dynasty.
Despite having a Spirit-Nurturing Realm powerhouse at its disposal, the Tianlin Dynasty's strength is not up to par with a four-star dynasty because it has too few individuals in the Spirit-Nurturing Realm. Therefore, it can only be regarded as the top three-star dynasty.
"It seems that the Qiankun Trading Company attaches great importance to our Tianlin Dynasty. Otherwise, their administrators would never have come out to greet me. I intend to negotiate an even bigger deal with them this time."
The Tianlin Emperor walked towards the Great Master with a smile. However, when he was about to reach him, his expression suddenly stiffened, and he froze in place.
"Haha, I have long heard that Emperor Wu is extraordinary and unparalleled. Seeing him today, indeed, he is remarkable. Day and night, I eagerly await Emperor Wu's arrival, and today, my wait has finally ended!"
As soon as the Great Master Sikong Tu saw Chu Yuan, he quickly stepped forward to meet him.
In recent days, because of the effect brought about by Chu Yuan's spiritual rice, his Qiankun Trading Company's business has been booming, making up for 30% of the market share and greatly suppressing the Infinite Trading Company.
"The Qiankun Trading Company is my biggest trading partner. How could I not pay a visit when I am in the Suspended City? It seems I am going to disturb the Great Master these few days."
Chu Yuan said with a smile.
"Not at all, we're more than glad to have you. Chai Ning, you've done well. You have not let me down. I've arranged a banquet in honor of our distinguished guest. Whatever you need, as long as our Qiankun Trading Company has it, it can be traded with Your Majesty."
Sikong Tu highly values Chu Yuan.
At this moment, his gaze fell upon Zhu Fengfeng standing behind Chu Yuan.
He also hadn't expected the Great Wu Dynasty to have a Spirit-Nurturing Realm powerhouse at their disposal.
A three-star dynasty with a Spirit-Nurturing Realm is on a completely different level from one without such a being.
At this point, Chu Yuan was being welcomed into the Qiankun Trading Company.
"The Great Wu Dynasty?"
"So they are not here to welcome me?"
The Tianlin Emperor stood outside in a daze. He almost went up. If he had, he would have suffered a massive blow to his pride.
Upon Chu Yuan's arrival, the Qiankun Trading Company prepared the grandest feast, offering him treatment on par with a Divine Position powerhouse. This is a show of respect to Chu Yuan and symbolized the Qiankun Trading Company's stance that they will support the Great Wu's trades under any circumstances.
This was inevitable, as their recent business was all thanks to Chu Yuan's spiritual rice. Loss of Chu Yuan as a major customer would quickly allow the Infinite Trading Company to suppress them again.
Within the Suspended Region, they held no advantage.
"Does Your Majesty know about the Suspended Forbidden area?"
Sikong Tu asked during the banquet.
"I have heard quite a bit from Chairman Chai about it—it's a collapsed overlapping space left behind from a battle between Gods and Demons. It is extremely dangerous but also contains many treasures."
Chu Yuan replied casually.
"Indeed, the Suspended Forbidden Area is dangerous, but it also attracts many powerful figures, including those of the emperor level, who are willing to take risks. An event of unprecedented scale happens every hundred years. Hence, the Qiankun Trading Company will also hold a grand event and put many good things up for auction. This time is no exception."
Chu Yuan nodded.
Without the opening of the Suspended Forbidden Area, where would so many powerful figures come from on ordinary days?
The Qiankun Trading Company naturally wanted to seize this opportunity to make a huge profit.
"Great Master, just say what you want to. I don't like roundabout talks."
Chu Yuan said lightly.
"He, Infinite Trading Company, is stronger than my Qiankun Trading Company. The auction they hold every hundred years attracts more customers than ours. During the last auction, the number of people who attended our auction was only thirty percent of their attendees."
Sikong Tu sighed, "This time, they have brought out a top-grade defensive divine artifact of the space domain, comparable to some unique offensive divine artifacts. It's their trump card. As far as I know, at least eighty percent of the people will go to their auction, and we conduct our auctions on the same day. So, even if we bring out the same item, we don't have any advantage."
The trading market is like a battlefield, and the Infinite Trading Company is trying to turn the tables against Qiankun Trading Company, intending to monopolize the trading in the Suspended Region.
"It seems that the Great Master hopes that I can help you."
"Exactly," Sikong Tu said, "I know that Emperor Wu can produce large quantities of divine pills. If Your Majesty has better elixirs, such as those unique grade and above, why not let the Qiankun Trading Company auction them for you? Even a large quantity of unique grade ones will do. The best ones can save lives.
The auction proceeds won't be touched at all, but it does help us grab some business from the Infinite Trading Company."
"The Suspended Forbidden Area can even lead to the downfall of those in the God Position realm, so a life-saving divine pill will definitely be popular."
Chu Yuan pondered for a moment, "I indeed have something suitable for you. Once it's out, the Qiankun Trading Company will definitely outcompete the Infinite Trading Company."
"What is it?" Sikong Tu stood up abruptly.
"It's this."
Chu Yuan took out the medium-grade healing potion.
"What is this?" Sikong Tu was puzzled. At a glance, the emerald green object resembled jade, but even with his extensive knowledge, he was somewhat unsure.
"It's called a medium-grade healing potion. There is no exaggeration that, as long as one's cultivation hasn't reached the God Position realm, any severe injury, even spiritual ones, can be healed instantly. With it, it's like having an extra life, which can help the Qiankun Trading Company beat back the Infinite Trading Company."
Chu Yuan explained.
"Is there really such a miraculous item!" Sikong Tu found it somewhat hard to believe.
Even a unique grade divine pill cannot instantly heal the spiritual injuries of a Spirit-Nurturing Realm. No divine pill can do that.
"I guarantee it with the Great Wu's honor. If the Great Master doesn't believe me, you are free to give it a try."
Chu Yuan said lightly.
"There's no need, I believe in Emperor Wu. How many can Emperor Wu provide? If its effect is truly remarkable, I can bid a high price at the auction and not take a penny from the proceeds. This time, it's a competition between us and the Infinite Trading Company. I want to suppress them hard!"
Sikong Tu was very decisive, knowing that if he doubted Chu Yuan, he would very likely lose such a trading partner.
In the past, the reason that Chu Yuan was pushed towards the Qiankun Trading Company was due to the arrogance and brutishness of the Infinite Trading Company.
"I have three bottles. However, I have a requirement. I only want Spirit Stones."
Chu Yuan was helping the Qiankun Trading Company, not solely to help them suppress the Infinite Trading Company. He was also running low on a large amount of Spirit Stones, which were needed for cultivation alignment by those above the God Observing Realm under him.
"Three bottles, haha, that's fantastic!"
Sikong Tu laughed: "Just Spirit Stones? There are many Spirit-Nurturing Realm existences here this time. As long as we spread its effect, the Infinite Trading Company's top-grade divine artifact wouldn't be worth anything. Nobody would ever think that they have too many lives. This battle is already ours to win!"
"Chai Ning, let the news spread in Suspended City, saying that the star item at our auction in five days time is this healing potion which can cure injuries at the Spirit-Nurturing Realm level. I can't believe that no one would be tempted. After all, those who dare to venture into the Suspended Forbidden Area will not lack the divine artifacts of the Infinite Trade Company.
We can also put divine artifacts of the same effect in this auction."
Sikong Tu was extremely decisive: "If they don't believe it, then let my Qiankun Trade Company's reputation serve as a guarantee!"
