My Longevity Simulation

Chapter 460



Chapter 460

To better manipulate prices and reap profits, Tantai Can and his associates released nearly half of the Samantabhadra True Leaf into the market, creating a false impression of supply. This was done to attract unsuspecting cultivators, who would then be harvested by them.

However, at this moment, the Samantabhadra True Leaf, which once brought them profit, had become their death warrant.

The moment the Samantabhadra True Leaf were snapped up by frantic cultivators, Tantai Can realized that if they didn't take immediate action, they would soon face a disastrous situation.

Thus, Tantai Can made a decisive order: to spare no expense in retrieving the Samantabhadra True Leaf.

Stimulated by this, the price of Samantabhadra True Leaf skyrocketed, reaching an incomprehensible level for the cultivators.

In an instant, the price surged from over 300 points to 400 points, and it seemed to have no limit in its rise.

This extremely abnormal situation left the observing cultivators speechless.

"Something is off!" This thought involuntarily surfaced in everyone's mind.

"Could it be that Samantabhadra True Leaf has some unknown use?"

Caught up in their imaginations, the cultivators who had already bought in were secretly celebrating, excitedly watching the price continue to soar.

Those who previously believed that Li Fan's prediction was merely a scam, although still skeptical, were tempted to join the buying frenzy as they saw those who took action getting rich in an instant.

As Tantai Can and his group watched the madness unfold, many of them began to look grim.

If this continued, they might lose all the profits they had gained over the years!

"Tantai Daoist..."

Tantai Can waved his hand: "We have no choice but to take the loss this time! Keep buying!"

"As long as we survive this ordeal, we can always find a way to recover..."

A hint of ferocity flashed across his handsome face.

The others, hearing this, could only grit their teeth and continue competing with the increasingly frantic cultivators.

As time slowly passed, their contribution points were spent like flowing water, but the deficit they faced was enormous.

It was like trying to fill a bottomless pit.

Even though they were all wealthy, they gradually found themselves running out of resources.

But seeing that Tantai Can still hadn’t changed his mind, they wiped the cold sweat from their foreheads and nervously continued to repurchase the leaves.

The tension in the air was palpable.

At this moment, Tantai Can took out a flashing communication talisman. After checking it, his expression eased slightly.

After sending a message, he regained his calm and composed demeanor.

Seeing this, the others thought that there had been a turning point and also breathed a sigh of relief.

Meanwhile, in the Qianli hall...

In the previous mass purchase, Li Fan and Jiao Xiuyuan had already bought a large number of Samantabhadra True Leaf at a low price.

They were now smiling as they watched the price skyrocket.

However, out of caution, Li Fan decided to sell a portion of the Samantabhadra True Leaf to secure his gains.

Under Li Fan's persuasion, Jiao Xiuyuan also gradually sold some of his stock.

As they were discussing their next move, Jiao Xiuyuan suddenly froze.

A moment later, he smiled and said to Li Fan, "Tantai Can has sent a message asking for a favor. Would you like to hear it?"

"No harm in listening," Li Fan said casually.

"Ahem..."

Jiao Xiuyuan cleared his throat, mimicking Tantai Can's voice: "Brother Jiao, it's wise to leave room for future encounters. How about doing me a favor this time?"

Li Fan chuckled.

However, he didn’t respond rashly but instead asked Jiao Xiuyuan, "Brother Jiao, what do you think?"

Jiao Xiuyuan sneered, "It's just a junior from the Tantai family, does he really think he can talk about favors with me?"

"Maybe if his ancestor came, it would be more appropriate!"

Li Fan's heart stirred but didn’t press further. He clapped and praised, "Daoist Jiao, you are truly formidable!"

Then, he suddenly said, "However, there's no harm in agreeing to their request!"

This statement greatly surprised Jiao Xiuyuan.

Jiao Xiuyuan looked at Li Fan in disbelief, "You don't seem like someone who would suddenly grow a soft heart. Why are you showing mercy now?"

"Not at all!" Li Fan shook his head, "It’s just another opportunity to make a profit!"

Talking business piqued Jiao Xiuyuan’s interest. He quickly asked, "What do you mean?"

"In my earlier calculations, I saw not only the price surge of Samantabhadra True Leaf. I also foresaw that the impact of this turmoil would be so great that the Ten Thousand Immortals Alliance would eventually be forced to intervene to stabilize the situation," Li Fan explained slowly.

"And it won’t be long before this happens."

"Oh? You mean that soon, the price of Samantabhadra True Leaf will fall back down?" Jiao Xiuyuan quickly understood.

"However, the exact timing is hard to predict; it could be at any moment. If we haven’t sold all our Samantabhadra True Leaf before the Ten Thousand Immortals Alliance intervenes, the extra stock might end up worthless," Li Fan continued.

"Therefore, it would be wise to negotiate a favorable price with Tantai Can and sell all our stock to them."

"This way, we reduce our risk, make another substantial profit, and even gain a favor from Tantai Can."

Li Fan’s explanation was clear.

Jiao Xiuyuan's eyes lit up, and he laughed heartily, "Daoist Li Fan, you are truly a business genius!"

"Let’s do it your way!"

He immediately closed his eyes, clearly eager to reply to Tantai Can.

Li Fan, meanwhile, stared at the price of Samantabhadra True Leaf still climbing in the Tianxuan Mirror, calculating how to respond to the upcoming turmoil.

A short time later, Jiao Xiuyuan emerged from his trance.

"It’s done. Tantai Can has agreed to buy all our Samantabhadra True Leaf at 1,300 contribution points per leaf."

"Moreover, he promised to fulfill three of our requests within his capabilities."

"I believe that’s the limit of what he can bear, so I took the liberty of signing the contract," Jiao Xiuyuan explained.

"No problem, it’s a minor issue," Li Fan replied nonchalantly, handing over the Samantabhadra True Leaf to Jiao Xiuyuan to complete the deal.

Li Fan glanced at the price of Samantabhadra True Leaf in the Tianxuan Mirror.

930 points per leaf, and it was still rising, with no sign of stopping.

"On the surface, it seems Tantai Can and his group have profited. But..."

Li Fan smirked inwardly, waiting for the final result from the Tianxuan Mirror.

Shortly after Jiao Xiuyuan reported the completion of the transaction, a familiar, cold, and mechanical voice echoed in the minds of all cultivators in front of the Tianxuan Mirror.

It was exactly as Li Fan had heard in his past life.

"Due to the abnormal and significant price fluctuations of Samantabhadra True Leaf in recent days, to ensure the stable and harmonious development of the Ten Thousand Immortals Alliance, the following announcement is made."
