Masterminding the World

"According to this newspaper, the Azure Cloud Sect has received news that the All-Heaven Continent has been impacted by the Ghost Realm Envoys, causing countless injuries and severe damage. Effective immediately, the Azure Moon Merchant Association will lower the prices of its goods while increasing the purchase prices of spirit medicine and refining materials, hoping to help everyone overcome this difficult time."

"Zhang Yang, the spokesperson for the Azure Cloud Sect, believes that although we belong to different continents, we are all part of the same Immortal Cultivation Realm. Faced with the alien race of the Ghost Realm Envoys, we should work together to fight against Ghost Realm Envoys."

As a member of the Immortal Cultivation Realm, the Azure Cloud Sect should shoulder its corresponding responsibilities and set a good example.

However, due to various reasons, the Azure Cloud Sect is unable to provide practical assistance to everyone, and can only offer support through commodity price reductions.

The prices of all goods have been adjusted as follows:

The Qi-Nourishing Pill, originally priced at 200 Spirit Stone, is now priced at 180.

The price of the Restriction-Breaking Pill, originally priced at 30,000 Spirit Stone, has now been adjusted to 27,000.

The price of the Nascent Soul-Breakthrough Pill, originally 150,000 Spirit Stone, has now been adjusted to 145,000 Spirit Stone.

In addition to the price reduction of pills and Law Treasure artifacts by the Azure Moon Merchant Association, the prices of various spirit medicine and refining materials have been increased. The adjusted prices are as follows:

Coral Grass, originally priced at five Spirit Stone per plant, is now priced at six Spirit Stone per plant.

The price of Mayflower, originally seven Spirit Stone per plant, has now been adjusted to eight Spirit Stone per plant.

The price of Ice Crystal Grass, originally 30,000 Spirit Stone per plant, has now been adjusted to 33,000 Spirit Stone per plant.

The price of Copper Mother, originally priced at 50,000 Spirit Stone per kilogram, has now been adjusted to 52,000 Spirit Stone per kilogram.

All products still enjoy member discounts even after the price reduction.

The price adjustment period for all goods is one year, after which the original price will be restored.

When the latest Azure Cloud Gazette Daily was released, the whole country was in an uproar.

Everyone's first instinct was: Has the Azure Cloud Sect gone mad?

Too much money to spend?

Immediately afterwards, everyone was overjoyed.

Regardless of whether the Azure Cloud Sect has gone mad, everyone has definitely received a great deal.

The Azure Cloud Sect is so righteous!

Everyone was incredibly excited, feeling that the Azure Cloud Sect was the best sect in the world!

Isn't using one's own money to help other sects in the world an act of righteousness?

However, most sects do not think so.

Idiot!

All the "newsboys" cursed the Azure Cloud Sect in their hearts as they quickly brought the latest issue of the Azure Cloud Gazette back to the sect.

However, the first to receive the news were the Rogue Cultivator of Azure Cloud City.

The moment the Azure Moon Merchant Association lowered its prices, countless people lined up at the Azure Moon Merchant Association's entrance.

With such great discounts, how could they not stock up quickly?

If we don't buy these cheap items now, they'll be bought up by people from other continents.

Hundreds of Rogue Cultivator independent cultivators in Azure Cloud City were all queuing up; the sight was terrifying.

The disciples of the Azure Cloud Sect had no choice but to step forward to maintain Order.

Chen Lin, a disciple of the Myriad Spirits Sect.

He was originally sent by the Myriad Spirits Sect to cause trouble in Azure Cloud City, but after arriving in Azure Cloud City, he ended up working for the Azure Cloud Sect.

He was a Golden Core cultivator who, recently, through the teachings of the Azure Cloud Sect and his own hard work, used the money he earned from part-time jobs to break through to the Nascent Soul Realm.

For this, he was also allocated a villa in Azure Cloud City.

Although it wasn't a big deal, it was much more comfortable than when I was in the Myriad Spirits Sect.

Moreover, he had been working at the Azure Cloud Sect during this time and had saved up Myriad Spirits.

Now that he heard that the Azure Moon Merchant Association had lowered its prices, even he, a dignified Nascent Soul Realm, joined the queue at the Azure Moon Merchant Association.

He spent all Myriad Spirits to buy two pills to store for later use.

After returning to the villa, Chen Lin hurriedly resumed his work for the Azure Cloud Sect.

Because he discovered that he didn't have enough money to spend!

If I don't hurry up and get a job, how will I make money?

How can one cultivate without money?

He had completely forgotten that he was a disciple of the Myriad Spirits Sect, and he had also completely forgotten about causing trouble. He threw himself wholeheartedly into the construction of the Azure Cloud Sect.

Situ Mingyue rushed to Zhang Yang and said, "Eldest Senior Brother, the purchasing power of the Rogue Cultivator in Azure Cloud City is quite frenzied. We've already consumed at least one-fifth of the goods we prepared. I'm afraid we won't be able to meet the demand from people on other continents."

If the purchasing power of Rogue Cultivator is this insane, the purchasing power of other sects must be even more insane.

They won't have enough goods to deliver.

Zhang Yang smiled faintly, "Don't rush!"

How much money do those Rogue Cultivators have? Once they run out of money, won't they just obediently work for us?

Then, they were trapped in Azure Cloud City for the rest of their lives, unable to escape!

Moreover, many of these goods were produced by them. Now that they are short of money, they will definitely work even harder to produce all kinds of goods.

Therefore, the Azure Moon Merchant Association Guild's stock will soon be replenished.

Another solution is that if people from other mainland China come to buy the goods and we run out of stock, we can give them IOUs!

Tell them that if they wish, they can take the IOU and receive the goods from them at the agreed-upon deadline.

The term of an IOU is not limited to one year!

If you're not willing to accept the IOU we've given you, then we'll just have to wait until later.

Situ Mingyue looked at Zhang Yang as if he were a ghost. With this move, the Azure Cloud Sect would probably be burdened with a huge debt for goods.

Those sects would frantically send all sorts of resources and materials to the Azure Cloud Sect, wouldn't they?

Because of the Azure Moon Merchant Association's brand effect, it has already been fully established.

The reputation of the Azure Cloud Sect has also been recognized by the world.

Under such circumstances, many people would probably be willing to believe the Azure Cloud Sect, right?

Even if you're hesitant to issue large IOUs, surely an IOU for tens of millions shouldn't be a problem?

How many sects are there in the entire Immortal Cultivation Realm?

Thinking of such consequences, Situ Mingyue felt a chill run down her spine.

She knew about Zhang Yang's plan; how much money would she make from this harvest?

Situ Mingyue returned to the Azure Moon Merchant Association to take charge of various affairs.

After pondering for a moment, Zhang Yang summoned Zhang Changshan, Wang Baole, and Liang Yi, and whispered, "Arrange for a few of your trusted confidants, preferably people that most people don't know, to take turns carrying money to the Azure Moon Merchant Association to purchase large quantities of goods."

He wanted to manipulate the Azure Moon Merchant Association's goods, transferring them from one hand to the other, creating an extremely tight supply situation for the Azure Moon Merchant Association.

Then, they made everyone go crazy for the Azure Moon Merchant Association's goods.

Anyway, the money belongs to the Azure Cloud Sect, the goods belong to the Azure Cloud Sect, the taxes belong to the Azure Cloud Sect... I'm the one who handles the refereeing and oversight. Trying to play games with me?

Zhang Changshan and his group each took several hundred million Spirit Stone and transferred them between their own pockets.

Then, after a series of transactions, Azure Moon Merchant Association's goods were snapped up.

Whether they were Rogue Cultivator or spies from other sects, once they went in, they would "buy, buy, buy".

Because buying now is a guaranteed profit, why worry about anything else?

While the Azure Moon Merchant Association's goods were being snapped up, only about half remained; they just couldn't be sold out...

Because our other major clients from mainland China haven't arrived yet!
