Wei Shishi said, "If our sect had the key and the way to open it, would it still be up to you all to sit in this hall and discuss it? That is a contract made between our sect's ancestor and that person's ancestor. Our sect will keep the entrance, and that person will keep the key. Now that that person is in trouble and has come to our sect to retrieve the treasure, this matter has somehow reached the ears of the Earth Lord, and he has actually forced us to reveal the treasure. Hmph! "Her tone was filled with extreme dissatisfaction.
"Hehe."
Nanqiu Yu smiled, "Opening the treasure is filled with danger. The more people, the more assurance."
Only then did Jue Tianhan say, "In that case, let that person have a share. It's impossible for him to have more."
Nanqiu Yu said, "I'll let that person talk to you all himself."
He clapped his hands, and an old man in luxurious clothes immediately walked in from outside the hall. He had a head full of silver hair and a white beard, and his complexion was rosy.
The old man's bearing was extraordinary, and one could tell at a glance that he was a peerless expert. However, some of the more observant martial artists could tell that this person looked tough, but was actually heavily injured.
Li Yunxiao smiled lightly and nodded at the old man. It was Wan Qianyi.
Wan Qianyi also saw him at a glance, and after a moment of shock, he laughed, "Haha, Brother Feiyang, I didn't expect to see you here as well."
Li Yunxiao smiled, "It really is a small world. It seems that old brother and I are fated."
Wan Qianyi said happily, "Brother, you're here too. I'm very happy."
Everyone's gazes turned to Li Yunxiao. They didn't expect him to know this person.
When Wei Shishi heard the two words "Feiyang," her body trembled, and her eyes flickered.
Nanqiu Yu said, "Let me introduce everyone. I believe many of you already recognize him. This lord is the head of the Tianwu Continent's Commerce Alliance, Lord Wan Qianyi of the Plethora Treasure Tower."
Wan Qianyi walked with his head held high, and after greeting the people he knew in the hall, he directly walked to the chair to the right of Nanqiu Yu and sat down.
This action immediately caused many people to be dissatisfied, but the reputation of the Myriad Treasure Tower in the hidden sects was even greater than that of the two holy lands. Therefore, they all muttered and complained softly, and no one openly berated them.
In their view, if they offended the Myriad Treasure Tower, some of the sect's material transactions on the continent would be completely ruined in the future. This was a very serious matter.
Mu Zhuang said, "May I know how Mister Wan Qianqian would like to distribute it?"
Wan Qianqian said, "It's simple. I'll take half, and everyone else takes the other half."
"Crash!"
The entire hall was in an uproar. Everyone could no longer care about the business transactions and started cursing. Some of them were so agitated that their elemental energy flowed through their bodies.
"Are you kidding me? You take half and we'll take half. Is there something wrong with your brain? "
"Hmph, so what if he's the leader of the Merchant Union? If you provoke us, leave behind the key and the method to open it and scram! "
"I think this person is purely here to cause trouble. Has the Merchant Union become so bored?"
Li Yunxiao also frowned and fell into deep thought.
Wan Qianqian's kind of distribution would definitely incur cursing. With his sly temperament, there was no way he did not know. It was most likely for the sake of fighting for greater benefits.
What he could be sure of was that these reclusive aristocratic families' people were basically simple-minded and blindly arrogant. They definitely could not scheme against this sly old fox.
Mu Zhuang's face had long fallen as he said coldly, "Mister Wan Qianqian is joking, right? You want to monopolize half by yourself? This is the funniest joke that this seat has heard in this life! "
Wan Qianqian said leisurely, "The key and the method to open it are all in this old man's hands. If I'm not willing, everyone can't get a single cent."
Mu Zhuang snorted and said, "Even so, at this moment, is it up to you?"
Wan Qianqian nodded and said, "Precisely so. That's why I agreed to share half with everyone."
Mu Zhuang was speechless.
"Humph, half is too little!"
Jue Tianhan suggested, "I suggest splitting it according to headcount. There are a total of 223 people in this hall. Your Excellency can take 1% of 223."
"Right, right, this method is the fairest!"
Jue Tianhan's proposal immediately received the approval of everyone. Someone even shouted, "If you want to split it according to headcount, you have to add in the disciples outside the hall as well."
Wan Qianqian sneered incessantly in his heart, but his expression remained unchanged as he nodded and said, "Everyone's words are reasonable. However, this old man does not represent this old man alone, but the entire Myriad Treasure Tower."
He said leisurely, "The Myriad Treasure Tower is spread all over the world. There are more than nine thousand strongholds of various sizes, a total of more than a hundred thousand disciples. Adding in some temporary workers and the like, there are at least five hundred thousand people."
The hall immediately fell silent. All sound was gone.
Even if all the disciples of these reclusive sects added up, it would probably only be enough to split evenly with them.
"Haha."
Nanqiu Yu suddenly laughed and said, "Lord Wan Qianqian is worthy of being the head of the merchant alliance. This calculation method is unparalleled. That request of half is really hard to accept. I hope that you will reconsider. "
Wan Qianqian frowned and said, "This secret treasure was left behind by the ancestors. Splitting half is already a disgrace to the ancestors and I have no face to face them. Lord Nanqiu Yu's words really put this old man in a difficult position, but I can't not give Your Excellency face … "
His brows were deeply furrowed, and he looked like he was in a difficult position.
Li Yunxiao laughed inwardly and thought to himself, 'This old fox really knows how to act. He's probably laughing like a flower in his heart right now.'
Wan Qianqian hesitated for a moment and shook his head repeatedly, saying, "No, no. Half is already very little. I must get it."
The atmosphere in the hall immediately turned cold. The few experts who had transcended into sainthood all stared at him coldly. The atmosphere was extremely tense.
Nanqiu Yu smiled slightly and said, "Shishi, you are on good terms with Mister Wan Qianqian. You should talk more."
Wei Shishi nodded and said, "Lord Wan Qianqian, this kind of distribution is indeed hard to accept."
Wan Qianqian sighed and said, "Sigh, it's not that I, Wan Qianqian, am greedy. With the Myriad Treasure Tower's treasures, it might not be below this secret treasure. It's just that … the merchant alliance is currently facing internal and external troubles and is in imminent danger. I need a large amount of treasures to recruit experts and restore order in the merchant alliance. "
Wei Shishi said, "I see. It's understandable." She then said no more.
Jue Tianhan said coldly, "In any case, this kind of distribution is absolutely impossible. At worst, I'll just shatter the secret treasure and no one can think about getting it!"
Wan Qianqian's expression changed slightly and he said in a low voice, "How about this? I, Wan Qianqian, do not really care about these secret treasures. All these years, everyone has cooperated with my merchant alliance quite a bit. You should know the Myriad Treasure Tower's reputation and magnanimity. I can not take a single cent of these secret treasures. As long as anyone is willing to help me, not only will I give them half of the secret treasure, I will also give them a thirty percent discount on any business cooperation with the Myriad Treasure Tower in the future. "
When this condition was stated, it immediately caused everyone's expressions to change.
Li Yunxiao praised in his heart. This Nanqiu Yu and Wei Shishi were echoing each other at the side. It seemed like they were in cahoots with Wan Qianqian. The two kept giving Wan Qianqian a way out and finally stated their objective.
However, this was also the best method for Wan Qianqian. If he could obtain the help of these reclusive sects, the day of reorganizing the merchant alliance was just around the corner.
Jue Tianhan laughed loudly and said, "Haha, Wan Qianqian, your objective is to make us work for you!"
Wan Qianqian's expression did not change as he said, "Merchants pay particular attention to harmony when there are benefits, and division when there are no benefits. Wan Qianqian did not force anyone. Every transaction is mutually beneficial and voluntary. Lord Tianhan is also an adult and the esteemed master of a sect. How can you say such childish words? "
"Humph!" Jue Tianhan flew into a rage out of humiliation and snorted heavily.
Mu Zhuang mused and said, "I wonder who Lord Qianqian's enemy is?"
The reclusive sects did not know of the merchant alliance's unforeseen event. Wan Qianqian's conditions were indeed very attractive. Everyone perked up their ears to listen quietly.
Wan Qianqian said, "Naturally a present age expert."
Li Yunxiao wanted to laugh when he heard this, secretly praising this Wan Qianqian's deep understanding of the reclusive sects.
If he directly said Ling Baiyi and Ding Shan, the latter was still fine, but the former's reputation was extremely great. He was afraid that these reclusive sects' people would beat a retreat. But such a vague statement, with these people's pride and arrogance, they would most likely be disdainful.
Sure enough, Mu Zhuang said coldly, "In the present age, there are not many who can be called experts. My Mu Family can consider this deal. "
Wan Qianqian's eyes brightened, and he hurriedly said, "With the Mu Family's ability, of course it won't be a problem!"
"Humph, is your Mu Family thinking of monopolizing half of the hidden treasure?"
Jue Tianhan snorted angrily, his face darkening.
Wei Shishi said, "That's right, the Mu Family's appetite is too big. Thousand Leaves Island is also interested in this deal."
Li Yunxiao was now a hundred percent sure that Wei Shishi and Wan Qianqian were in cahoots.
Wan Qianqian's words had subconsciously turned the other half of the hidden treasure into a huge condition. In reality, that half of the hidden treasure was not even Wan Qianqian's. Even if Wan Qianqian did not want to give it up, he would not be able to take it.
Now that Wei Shishi was competing with Mu Zhuang for this condition, everyone's thoughts immediately changed from 'do you want it or not' to 'me too'.
Wan Qianqian's eyes flashed with imperceptible joy.
Sure enough, the voices of 'we are also interested' rose one after another. Everyone was excited.
Nanqiu Yu waved his hand, signaling for everyone to be quiet. He then said, "Whether it is the hidden treasure or the preferential treatment for working with the Commerce League, I think it is extremely important to every clan. I feel that Lord Wan Qianqian's condition is not good enough. Everyone should agree to it. Every clan will send one or two people to follow Lord Wan Qianqian to reorganize the Commerce League. Then, everyone will share the hidden treasure and enjoy the thirty percent discount. "
Before anyone could respond, Wan Qianqian shook his head like a rattle drum. He waved his hand repeatedly and said, "No, no, if all the hidden clans enjoy the Commerce League's thirty percent discount, then our Commerce League will suffer a great loss. This cannot be allowed."
Li Yunxiao was speechless. He thought to himself that this old fox was the Best Actor. Now that the Commerce League had changed its name, if he could not take it back, then the thirty percent discount was just empty talk. If he could take it back, then forget thirty percent, he would even give it fifty percent or thirty percent. He was still acting like a loser after getting the benefits.
With Nanqiu Yu and Wei Shishi adding fuel to the fire, Wan Qianqian would most likely succeed this time. Ding Shan would be in big trouble, and Li Yunxiao wanted to see how Ding Shan would deal with it.
Nanqiu Yu said awkwardly, "If the preferential discount cannot be enjoyed by all the clans, it will definitely cause dissatisfaction. Moreover, this matter concerns the distribution of half of the hidden treasure. It will be difficult to handle."
Li Yunxiao thought to himself, "Keep acting, keep acting. You three Best Actors, keep acting."
