The Grand Event Is Imminent (2)

Of course, this was only Yue Qianchou knew. Although this Spirit Stone Trading Company had the rudiments of a bank from his previous life, its operating methods were clearly not yet fully developed. You wouldn't earn interest on your deposited Spirit Stone; in fact, you'd have to pay a certain percentage as a fee when you withdrew them. This was because many people felt it was unsafe to carry large quantities of Spirit Stone on their person, so they preferred to pay the trading company a fee to deposit their stones here and withdraw them elsewhere.

For example, a Rogue Cultivator might make a fortune at the Treasure Gathering Basin Convention, but given his cultivation level and background, once he leaves the Treasure Gathering Basin and loses the protection of the World Commerce Association, he's very likely to be robbed. What to do then? No problem, the Spirit Stone Merchant Guild will provide you with convenience. You only need to pay a small fee to deposit a large amount of Spirit Stone with the guild. When you're traveling and need money, you can withdraw it at any branch of the World Commerce Association at any time. You can withdraw as much or as little as you like, and you can withdraw in multiple installments without any problem. The Spirit Stone Merchant Guild will absolutely not embezzle a single Spirit Stone from you. In terms of business integrity, the World Commerce Association is a model for the entire Cultivation World!

Because fighting and killing are commonplace in the Cultivation World, it's said that people often hoard Spirit Stone, only to die before they have a chance to retrieve and enjoy them. If no one provides the correct information to claim them, these Spirit Stone naturally become ownerless. Rumor has it that the World Commerce Association gains over a hundred million high-grade Spirit Stones annually from this windfall.

If your cultivation level is low and you find some treasures at the Treasure Gathering Basin Convention, but are worried about being robbed on your way home, don't worry. As long as you can afford the fee, the World Commerce Association's escort service will provide protection and help you return home. If the protection fails, the World Commerce Association will compensate you according to the appraised value.

In short, for any financial matter or trouble you may encounter, you can seek help from the World Commerce Association. As long as you provide the appropriate compensation, the World Commerce Association will provide you with comprehensive services, and its reputation is absolutely guaranteed!

This is the World Commerce Association, founded by Yin Baikang. It is such a huge business behemoth that it does business in both the Cultivation World and the secular world, which makes people both envious and admirable.

The flow of people to the Treasure Gathering Basin surged, and one entrance/exit was no longer sufficient. Therefore, seven other closed entrances/exits were opened, making a total of eight entrances/exits open to accommodate merchants from all over the world. All the top experts from the World Commerce Association headquarters were mobilized, and many more were brought in from its branches outside, maintaining a close watch on the entire Treasure Gathering Basin. Anyone who dared to cause trouble was simply courting death!

On the God of Wealth Peak, Sikong Jue and Jing Yuankong continuously relayed various important messages to Yin Baikang. Within the World Commerce Association, Sikong Jue in charge of external affairs, while Jing Yuankong handled internal matters; each had their own division of labor.

Upon learning that nearly three hundred lords had sent messages announcing their attendance at the World Treasure Gathering Basin Convention, Yin Baikang smiled. Those were nearly three hundred of the wealthiest people in the Cultivation World! Everyone knew what they were after; it would be difficult for the World Commerce Association not to make a fortune this time.

Yin Baikang was squinting and pondering something under the ancient pine tree at the summit when Sikong Jue quickly rushed over from below the mountain, cupping his hands and saying, "Master, news has come from Wenrui of Biwan Kingdom that Wen Lanfeng will be visiting Jubao Basin. In addition, Xin Laojiu of Lingfang Valley has sent word that Lu Yanqing is already on her way to Jubao Basin, and hopes that we can make careful arrangements."

Yin Baikang was slightly taken aback. Wen Lanfeng's arrival was expected; after all, he was a lord of his own territories, and for the sake of the Wen family's future, he would likely find it difficult to resist the temptation of the Restriction Breaking Pill. However, Lu Yanqing's arrival was somewhat unexpected. That woman had attended the Treasure Gathering Basin Convention many years ago and had never returned since. Everyone knew that this woman preferred peace and quiet and disliked such chaotic scenes.

"It seems the allure of the Restriction Breaking Pill is extraordinary!" Yin Baikang couldn't help but burst into laughter...

"Master, lords from various countries are arriving one after another. Should we prepare some kind of reception?" Sikong Jue asked for instructions.

Yin Baikang waved his hand dismissively and said, "No need. They all have shops here, and their own people will take care of things. We can't possibly entertain them all individually; we don't have the time. If anything comes up, they'll naturally come to me. Of course, we still need to give these people face and treat them differently from ordinary people. Hmm! Send them all a thank-you note with a note of apologies for any shortcomings in our hospitality."

"Understood." Sikong Jue nodded, then frowned and asked, "Master, nearly five thousand Restriction Breaking Pill, are we really going to sell them all without keeping a single one?"

"I was just about to tell you about this." Yin Baikang looked at the surging sea of clouds in the distance and squinted. "Immediately issue another notice announcing the price of the Restriction Breaking Pill as two million high-grade Spirit Stones per pill. Also, make a note that because only five thousand Restriction Breaking Pill were refined for the first time, some are not enough to meet the demand. In order not to offend anyone by showing favoritism, anyone who is serious about purchasing must pay half of the deposit in advance, one million high-grade Spirit Stones per pill. The more you order, the more you pay. There will be no credit. The remaining balance will be paid upon delivery."

Upon Sikong Jue's eyes lit up, and he understood his master's plan. He cupped his hands and said, "Master is wise. I will make the arrangements immediately."

"There's one more thing," Yin Baikang said, frowning. "The effects of the Restriction Breaking Pill must also be published in detail. This pill can only improve cultivation level, but it cannot break through cultivation bottlenecks. You should state in the notice that we will subsequently sell a large quantity of Seven Treasures Pill that can break through cultivation bottlenecks. As for the price... it's the same as the Restriction Breaking Pill, two million high-grade Spirit Stones per pill."

Sikong Jue astonishment, "Master, didn't you say that the cost price of our Seven Treasures Pill is two million high-grade Spirit Stones per pill? Are you going to sell it at the original price?"

"I have my own plans," Yin Baikang said, his eyes gleaming.

For him, the Seven Treasures Pill was something that could curb the rapid cultivation advancement of the Restriction Breaking Pill. In other words, this was what allowed him to sell Restriction Breaking Pill in large quantities without fear of other forces surpassing him. And most importantly, the Seven Treasures Pill wasn't sold directly to him by Niu Youde. If it had, things would have been much easier; he had confidence in Niu Youde's business reputation.

However, the Seven Treasures Pill had to pass through Yue Qianchou's hands before reaching him. Although Yue Qianchou's cultivation was not very high, he was a complete madman. There was probably nothing he wouldn't dare to do. That guy was too audacious and somewhat lawless. He actually dared to kill more than two thousand people from various countries without considering the consequences at all. Even if I were to do that, I would have to think twice.

Yue Qianchou originally intended to make money from this stuff, but he ended up having his business stolen. If that madman saw him profiting from the Seven Treasures Pill, who knows if he'd get jealous? What if that guy went all out and sold it himself instead of giving it to him? With Wen Lanfeng backing him up, he really couldn't do anything about it.

So, to appease the madman, he decided to sell it at the original price. Since the other party saw that he hadn't made any money, they naturally wouldn't have any objections.

In short, securing the supply of Seven Treasures Pill is paramount; they must never be used for profit, otherwise, the consequences will be disastrous. If you want to make money, having Restriction Breaking Pill would be a sure way to make a fortune.

"What is Niu Youde doing?" Yin Baikang asked.

Sikong Jue, "He's now hanging out with the madam of Spring Sleep Tower, practically living there. The Spring Sleep Tower's business has boomed because of him, and prices have skyrocketed. What used to cost just a few high -high-grade Spirit Stones is now a thousand; you can't even get in without them. Even so, people still flock there, considering it an honor to have a patron of one of Spring Sleep Tower's top prostitutes. Just today, the Law Enforcement Guard went to Spring Sleep Tower five times, all because the two sides got into a fight over a prostitute."

Yin Baikang paused for a moment, then shook his head and said, "This guy." He then instructed, "Take care of the notice, and then go to Spring Sleep Tower in person and invite him over. I have something to discuss with him."

This is about Yue Qianchou, but Yue Qianchou himself is in the backyard of Spring Sleep Tower, passionately entwined with Yan Yu, sweating profusely... Afterwards, Yan Yu, full of spring passion, clings to Yue Qianchou's chest like an octopus.

"Little **, when are you planning to leave?" Yue Qianchou asked, stroking her ample figure. After giving Yan Yu a hint last time, he went to Spring Sleep Tower again, only to find that the woman was still doing business as usual, showing no intention of leaving. He was immediately furious; this woman was too disobedient, and so he had inadvertently become a regular visitor to this backyard.

"Why should I leave?" Yan Yu's eyes flashed with cunning as she said, "Anyway, no one cares, it's the same wherever I go, so I might as well stay in Treasure Gathering Basin, at least my safety is guaranteed."

Yue Qianchou immediately flew into a rage, shoving her smooth body away. He sat up, stared at her, and said in a deep voice, "Let me be clear! I'm just playing around with you. Don't think I'll do anything to you. If anything happens, don't expect me to protect you."

Yan Yu wasn't annoyed by his words, nor did she argue back. She pulled the blanket over her full, white breasts and sat up with a smile, saying, "If I'm going to leave, I need to make some money at the Treasure Gathering Basin Convention to support myself. Otherwise, what am I supposed to do in the future? I have no one to rely on."

Upon hearing this, Yue Qianchou was taken aback and frowned, saying, "I'll give you one hundred million high-grade Spirit Stones. You'd better leave here quickly."

Yan Yu shook her head and said, "Although I am in Spring Sleep Tower, I have my principles and I will never sell myself. Our relationship was consensual. If I took your money, how would that be any different from selling myself? Don't force me to sell myself!"

Yue Qianchou was speechless, unable to bring himself to offer money. After some thought, he said to her, "Raise the price again. Increase the minimum charge at Spring Sleep Tower by a hundredfold. Once you've made enough money, leave quickly."

Yan Yu was stunned and exclaimed, "You just made me increase the price a hundredfold yesterday, from ten high-grade Spirit Stones to a thousand. Now you're increasing it another hundredfold. Doesn't that mean it will cost a hundred thousand high-grade Spirit Stones? Will anyone still come to buy from me?"

"**! There are more rich people than you think. Besides, with my and Yin Baikang's connections, it's definitely worth the price." Yue Qianchou yanked off her blanket and shooed her away, "Go quickly, time is Spirit Stone, make enough and get out of here."
