Although he was occasionally unreliable, Xiao Jin had never met anyone better than Ya Fei when it came to business.
After hearing Xiao Jin's request, Ya Fei immediately summoned two staff members from the Miteer Auction House and issued a series of swift, decisive orders.
"Put the Jia Lie Clan's shipment on hold for now. Say that it encountered bandits on the road and that emergency restocking is currently underway."
"Go tell those minor clans that if they want to continue doing business with the Mittel Family, they must end their cooperation with the Jia Lie Clan."
"Organize the accounts and send people to the Jia Lie Clan to collect their debts. Have Uncle Gu Ni lead the team. He's already a Seven-Star Dou Grandmaster. People of his age need to stretch their muscles now and then."
"Send word to the surrounding cities. Tell all the Miteer Auction House branches that any business related to the Jia Lie Clan is to be terminated. I'll report this to the family afterward, so they don't need to worry."
Several orders in succession not only cut off the Jalie Clan's business in Wutan City, but also affected several surrounding cities.
Sending people to collect debts in person further demonstrated the Miteer Auction House's stance. If Jia Liebi learned that the Mittel Family had also sided with the Xiao Clan, he would certainly feel threatened.
However, Xiao Jin still said, "Sister Ya Fei, have your people guard the several routes out of Wutan City. Don't let anyone from the Jia Lie Clan escape."
When the two sides were evenly matched, Jia Liebi might still consider fighting to the death.
But when the disparity in strength became too great, people often lost even the courage to resist.
Ya Fei understood Xiao Jin's meaning as well.
