Ji Tiange appeared.
He listened to the fierce expressions of the crowd as they listed their crimes.
Luo Zheng didn't say anything. He just stood there with a smile and a lazy expression.
The more these people talked, the brighter the expression on his face. It was as if these people were saying good things about him.
Gradually, the crowd's voices became softer and softer. Some people simply stopped and stared fiercely at Luo Zheng.
They talked in full swing, but Luo Zheng didn't care at all, treating them like fools.
"Luo Zheng, did you hear that? You're so young, yet you dare to be so rude in front of the Celestial King. You're simply arrogant! "
An old man shouted angrily.
Luo Zheng's attitude was completely ignoring the crowd. These people were all reputable figures. How could they not be angry?
"Hahaha, I'm rude?"
Luo Zheng couldn't help but laugh when he heard that. He pointed at them and said, "You people have lived for so long, yet you don't even know any etiquette. How can you make a racket in front of the Yellow Heavenly King? How dare you say I'm rude? What a joke! "
"Little bastard, you're twisting words and forcing logic!"
"The Celestial King asked us to say it ourselves!"
"This kid is trying to change the topic. Don't fall for his trick!"
The crowd was so angry that smoke was coming out of their seven orifices. They pointed at Luo Zheng and scolded him.
"Changing the topic? Why do I need to change the topic? You say I'm deliberately lowering the price? It's mine. I can sell it at whatever price I want. What can you do about it? "
Luo Zheng couldn't help but sneer. "As for the killing of the two Elders of the World Wide Society, you have no right to say anything. That day, many people saw that it was the World Wide Society's Cloud Sky Peak who wanted to swallow the Yin Yang Essence that I entrusted to the Manyu Business Alliance. They even attacked us first, wanting me to silence them. We were just defending ourselves. They deserved it. Even death couldn't wipe out their crimes. Moreover, the Emperor, Ji Tiange, was there that day. He didn't say anything. Do you have the right to say anything? "
After that, Luo Zheng looked at the Yellow Heavenly King and said, "Celestial King, I think these people are deliberately causing trouble because their business is not as good as mine, Excalibur. They want to use this as an excuse to attack me!"
"Is that right?"
The Yellow Heaven Immortal King moved slightly. Golden light overflowed as he looked at everyone.
"Immortal King, that's definitely not what we meant. It's just that the Immortal Sword Merchant Alliance is too overbearing in doing business. They have lowered the price of many of the refining materials and elixirs to the extreme, even lower than the price of our goods!"
"That's right. If this goes on, we won't even be able to continue operating the Cloud Merchant Union.
"If this goes on, our other shops will be hit to the point where we can't operate anymore!"
"We have a total of thirteen merchant guilds. The merchant guilds have paid quite a lot of taxes to the Yellow Heaven Immortal Court over the years. The Yellow Heaven Imperial Court should uphold justice for us."
Everyone spoke up one after another, as if they had suffered a great loss and lost everything.
"Uphold justice? How do you want this king to uphold justice?"
The Yellow Heavenly King couldn't help but feel a headache coming on when he saw so many Chambers of Commerce and Trade Alliances speaking at the same time.
These Chambers of Commerce and the Commerce Alliance's businesses were very successful and had been operating in the Yellow Heaven Court for a long time.
If they really withdrew from the Yellow Heaven Court, the five cities in the Heaven Court that were open to the public would be much more desolate.
"Just ask Excalibur to withdraw from the Yellow Heaven Court. We can't keep a business alliance that breaks the rules."
After exchanging glances with each other, an old man stepped forward and said, "Don't worry.
"You can withdraw just because you want to? We, Excalibur, also have to pay taxes to the Heaven Court. You said that we broke the rules. What rules are there? Which rule says that Excalibur's goods can't be sold at a lower price than yours?"
Luo Zheng smiled faintly, and said: "Doing business is based on one's own ability, if you feel that you are unable to compete with our Immortal Sword Merchant Union, then just withdraw, your shops will be taken over by us!"
"There is no such rule in the Yellow Heaven Court. Moreover, the lower the price of Excalibur's goods, the more it can attract warriors from other places to the Heaven Court."
The Yellow Heavenly King pondered for a moment and said, "I'm afraid I can't agree to this condition."
"Immortal King, at the very least, you should ask Excalibur to raise the price of their goods to the same level as our thirteen Chambers of Commerce."
Seeing that the Yellow Heavenly King didn't agree, everyone's expression changed. They exchanged glances and the old man proposed another condition.
"About this …"
Just as the Yellow Heavenly King was about to refuse, a voice came from outside. "Ji Tian Ge requests an audience."
"Tian Ge, I'm dealing with the affairs of the Heaven Court outside. If you have something to say, you can say it later."
The Yellow Heavenly King said.
"What Tian Ge wants to report is related to the Immortal King's handling of the matter!"
Ji Tian Ge's voice came again. "I received a joint letter from seventy-three Chambers of Commerce requesting the Immortal King to eliminate Excalibur."
Hearing Ji Tian Ge's words, a smile appeared on the faces of the people from the Merchant Union.
