In the afternoon, the people of the Shaoling Chamber of Commerce finally got to know what the real ocean was.
Chen Diao took them to fly above the ocean, visiting the bases of the alliances. They saw many rare treasures in the ocean, including the corpses and crystal nuclei of the strange beasts, which made them envious. However, what shocked them the most was the deep ocean.
Under Chen Diao's lead, they directly dove into the deep ocean. The ocean around the Treasure Mountain Alliance was safe. Moreover, Chen Diao and Ouyang Yi were strong, so they could dive more than two thousand meters deep. Feeling the aura of the deep ocean, they felt that the Eight Ancient Continents were too small.
They even found some strange beasts swimming in the ocean. Although they were stronger than the strange beasts, they didn't attack them. Later, Chen Diao explained that the strange beasts were raised by the Treasure Mountain Alliance. They were just pets.
The afternoon passed quickly. They went back to the Treasure Mountain Alliance and attended a luxurious banquet. There were many delicious dishes that they had never seen before in the banquet, and they were all delicious. The people of the Treasure Mountain Alliance told them that these were all deep-sea creatures, and many of them were the meat of the strange beasts. The strange beasts in the ocean were huge, and one of them could get a lot of meat.
Naturally, they became the main source of food.
This kind of meat was not only delicious, but also nutritious. It was better for the body than the ordinary materials for refining pellets. After eating the food here for a long time, the food in the Eight Ancient Continents became bland.
Of course, the banquet didn't require Liu Yi to do anything. Ouyang Yi took care of everything. Ouyang Yi was an experienced playboy, so it was easy for him to socialize. Seeing that Ouyang Yi was like a fish in water, Liu Yi, who was at the side, was very quiet.
Eventually, the banquet ended. Everybody was a little tipsy as they went back to their rooms. Ouyang Yi had drunk a lot of wine, and the wine here wasn't ordinary. Although his face was red, he was still sober. He went back to his room to wash his face and rinse his mouth. After washing off the smell of alcohol on his body, he changed into a new set of clothes and walked to Liu Yi's room.
Knock knock.
Ouyang Yi knocked on the door. Soon, the door was opened. Ouyang Yi looked at Liu Yi and said, "Let me show you the information of this negotiation."
Liu Yi nodded slightly and stepped aside to let Ouyang Yi in.
After closing the door, the two of them sat in chairs. Ouyang Yi took out a whole stack of papers from his ring and put it on the table. He said, "The information about the Treasure Mountain Alliance and the details of the negotiations are all here. Take a look."
Liu Yi picked up the information and looked through it carefully. If it was an ordinary person, it would be good if they could finish reading this information in one night. However, as a Level Seven Heavenly Master, Liu Yi's speed was naturally incomparable to that of an ordinary person. She quickly finished reading the information and put it aside.
The information was very comprehensive.
As expected of the Shaoling Chamber of Commerce, not only did they have a comprehensive estimation of the Baoshan Alliance, but they also knew the details of the negotiation. Every word was very precise, and there was absolutely no ambiguity or flaw to be found.
"How do you feel?" Ouyang Yi asked.
"Very good," Liu Yi said.
"Do you think tomorrow's negotiation will go smoothly?" Ouyang Yi asked again, "Our conditions are very sincere, and the price is even lower than the market price. They should be very willing."
Liu Yi nodded slightly. Indeed, for this business, the Shaoling Chamber of Commerce had made a lot of concessions. However, negotiations would never go smoothly. If she negotiated with this kind of thinking, it would only destroy her confidence.
"Judging from the attitude of the 12 presidents today, I don't have much confidence." Liu Yi did not beat around the bush and said directly, "Three of the 12 presidents are very interested, four of them are not clear, or they are neutral, and five of them are obviously resistant."
Ouyang Yi was stunned when he heard this. He had also observed this, but he did not expect Liu Yi to have been observing this. He said, "The person we are mainly persuading is He Wei. As long as he agrees, this matter will be much easier."
"But He Wei can't ignore the opinions of the five families. Otherwise, the entire Baoshan Alliance will be in chaos." Liu Yi said, "And I suspect that in addition to the Shaoling Chamber of Commerce, the Baoshan Alliance is also negotiating with other Chambers of Commerce."
Ouyang Yi was shocked and asked, "Why do you say that?"
Indeed, Ouyang Yi did not think that there would be other Chambers of Commerce competing. After all, if the Baoshan Alliance could negotiate with them, they could negotiate with other Chambers of Commerce. There were so many Chambers of Commerce in the four empires, and it was the same no matter who they did business with. This was also why he had lowered the requirements of the negotiation so much.
However, Liu Yi's tone was very firm, which he did not notice.
"Because of everyone's state." Liu Yi said, "If we were the first or only Chamber of Commerce to come, these people would not be so calm. They might even be a little disgusted."
Ouyang Yi was stunned. He was not good at observing people, so he asked, "What do you mean?"
Liu Yi glanced at Ouyang Yi and said, "Although He Wei and Chen Diao's performance was very good and they were very emotional, they were still the Alliance Master and Vice Alliance Master, so they had to put on a good show. However, the others did not have such good manners. It was obvious that they were not interested in us. It was as if they had attended this kind of banquet many times and were numb to it. Many people didn't even drink at the banquet and looked bored. "
"It was the same when we visited the warehouses of the various Chambers of Commerce in the afternoon. The people guarding the warehouses did not react at all when they saw us. They looked at us with empty eyes and did not have any emotions." Liu Yi said, "So, I'm afraid that we are not the first Chamber of Commerce to come. They might have even negotiated with several other Chambers of Commerce."
After listening to Liu Yi's analysis, Ouyang Yi nodded. Indeed, after hearing what Liu Yi said, these people's reactions were too calm, which was very abnormal. If the Baoshan Alliance had talked to many chambers of commerce, then the Shaoling Chamber of Commerce would have a much smaller chance.
"My current deduction is that the Treasure Mountain Alliance does intend to form an alliance with a certain Chamber of Commerce, and the twelve Chambers of Commerce do intend to work together to unify their channels. Otherwise, they wouldn't have met so many Chambers of Commerce, and they wouldn't have been so generous in opening their stores." Liu Yi said seriously, "This will save us a lot of trouble. At least we don't have to worry about this."
"Secondly, I think that the five presidents who are conflicted should already have a good impression of a certain chamber of commerce." Liu Yi continued, "There should be a Chamber of Commerce that put forward very good conditions that moved them. That's why they ignored us."
"As for the four whose attitudes are not clear, they probably want to wait and see. As for the three who are interested, it means that the merchant has not completely moved them yet."
"What we need to figure out now is how the Treasure Mountain Alliance decides which Chamber of Commerce to do business with. Do they vote together or do they let the Alliance Leader make the decision?" Liu Yi said, "If it's a vote, the number of votes will count. This way, we can target the seven Chambers of Commerce who are interested and use them as our main targets to lobby. We can even give them more benefits."
After listening to Liu Yi's analysis, Ouyang Yi's gaze never left her beautiful face. After Liu Yi finished speaking, Ouyang Yi came back to his senses. He found that the closer he got to Liu Yi, the more his heart sank.
This woman was simply too charming.
"You're right." Ouyang Yi took a deep breath and said, "I'll let my subordinates talk about these things over the next few days. I'll also ask people to find out how many Chambers of Commerce have come and what their conditions are so that we can make changes to our conditions."
"Okay." Liu Yi nodded, and the atmosphere suddenly became silent.
Liu Yi continued to look at the information in her hands. She tried to memorize the important details as much as possible tonight and organize the language and rhetoric that she might use tomorrow. Ouyang Yi did the same. The two of them looked at the information together under the candlelight.
After a long time, Liu Yi gently put down the information and looked at Ouyang Yi. "Tell me, why did you bring me here?"
Ouyang Yi was stunned when he heard this. He turned to look at Liu Yi and said, "Didn't I say that I want you to have a share of the profits here? That's all!"
"I don't want to hear lies," Liu Yi looked at Ouyang Yi and said seriously, "unless you want me to hate you."
"…"
Ouyang Yi's body shook. He lowered his head and put down the paper in his hands.
He gradually clenched his fists so hard that they creaked. Then he took a deep breath and suddenly loosened his fists.
He turned to look at Liu Yi. His eyes were heavy and painful. "Because I want to have you for two months."
