After sneering in his heart, Li Tiandi's face was full of sadness, and he sighed and said.
"Congratulations?
congratulate?
What is there to congratulate?
I don’t even know how to clean up this mess now.”
Li Tiandi said with a frustrated look.
Seeing Emperor Li Tian's depressed look, in front of the canopy of the Tongtian Chamber of Commerce headquarters on the other side, Fu Mancang and the three elders around him looked at each other and communicated with each other with their eyes, without opening their mouths to speak.
Seeing that no one paid attention to him, Emperor Li Tian sneered in his heart and continued to speak with a long sigh.
"Seniors, I really feel sorry for your Chamber of Commerce. I may have to disappoint you.
It is too difficult to overthrow the nobility and abolish slavery. I have decided that the reform will be invalidated from today on, and the aristocratic way of rule will be re-introduced."
"What did you say?
Are the reforms invalidated?”
Above the sky, there were three elders in Fumancang, with a look of shock on their faces.
"Zongzhu Li, are you joking with me? You have ruled three states and counties with such great fanfare. The reform has begun to bear fruit, and you are only one step away from success. Now you just give up your choice?"
Fumancang asked.
"Hey! Senior, if you are not a family member, you don't know how expensive food and rice are. Junior, I did have great ambitions at the beginning. I wanted to do something great and liberate the poor casual cultivators who had been oppressed for a long time.
But if you don’t do it, you won’t know. If you do it, you will be shocked.
As my power grows, more and more people follow me. Now there are thousands, even tens of thousands of mouths, waiting for me to give them food.
How can the younger generation be so virtuous and capable?
With so many mouths to eat, even the younger generation can’t afford to feed them.
This junior sect is not as wealthy as your Tongtian Chamber of Commerce. The little wealth I have now cannot withstand my corruption.
I was still too young and thought of things too simply, so the younger generation decided to restore the previous aristocratic way of ruling."
Li Tiandi said with regret.
"Fart, kid, are you kidding our Chamber of Commerce?"
From the sky, Fu Mancang's angry curses rang out.
"Senior, what are you talking about?
Why are you so anxious? Why do you mean I'm trying to trick you Tongtian Chamber of Commerce?
Please make it clear to me."
Li Tiandi said with an innocent face.
"Li Tiandi, don't play any tricks, I tell you, every move in Bozhou is under the surveillance of our Chamber of Commerce.
Don't think I don't know. You have recently started a real estate business and built several spirit gathering arrays. You will definitely make a lot of money in the future. Who are you fooling by such nonsense as saying you can't afford to support your subordinates?
Let me tell you, kid, in order to cooperate with you in carrying out reforms and overthrowing the rule of the aristocracy, our Tongtian Chamber of Commerce has recently invested huge manpower, material resources, and financial resources in three states and counties. This does not include the teleportation arrays built for you.
The total investment of our Chamber of Commerce has reached more than 2 billion high-grade spiritual stones.
The reason why we have invested so many spirit stones is because we are optimistic about your boy's reform of destroying the nobility and abolishing slavery. Now you tell us that you are giving up and you want our chamber of commerce to waste such a large investment?"
The fat on Fu Mancang's face trembled, and he roared angrily.
"Senior, what are you talking about?
Fortunately, you are a businessman.
There are losses and profits in doing business. Where in the world can there be so many businesses that only make profits but not lose money?
Your investment failed and you lost money. What does this have to do with me, Emperor Li Tiandi?
I'm not forcing you to invest so much.
Of course, I still sympathize with your Chamber of Commerce.
However, I think with the foundation of your Chamber of Commerce, if you pay for such a small amount of spiritual stones, it won't hurt your bones.
Who doesn’t know that the Tongtian Chamber of Commerce is so wealthy that it can rival the country?”
Emperor Li Tian said with a smile.
"Fart, kid, what are you going to do? Tell me as soon as you can, and don't play tricks with me here.
The investment of more than 200,000 high-grade spiritual stones is not a small amount, and our Chamber of Commerce cannot afford it. If you want to change this reform, you can make some changes, and if you don’t, you can make some changes."
Fu Mancang roared without any doubt.
"Senior, aren't you buying and selling by force?
You are rushing a duck to market. You ask me to reform, but I have some cultivation resources. Now I am extremely poor and there is really nothing I can do.
Otherwise, I will transfer all the management rights of the three northeastern counties to your Tongtian Chamber of Commerce. You can expand your power however you want. I will never participate in it, and I will definitely give my full support to your Tongtian Chamber of Commerce."
Emperor Li Tian said with a smile.
"Boy, don't pretend to be confused here. You know the rules of our Tongtian Chamber of Commerce better than we do. The rules of our Chamber of Commerce are not to participate in any disputes between rivers and lakes. You clearly know that our Chamber of Commerce will not take over the Northeast Three
County, you keep telling us, aren’t you kidding us, what are you doing?”
At this time, not only Fu Mancang was angry, but the three elders of the Tongtian Chamber of Commerce behind him also had angry faces.
Before coming, the four of them discussed for a long time, thinking of all possibilities and how to deal with Emperor Li Tiandi.
However, the current Emperor Li Tian didn't play his cards according to common sense at all, and directly gave up his choice, and made such a move.
Chambers of commerce like the Tongtian Chamber of Commerce span the universe and open shops on every planet with humans in the universe. They have very strict control over tent issues.
Having lost so many spiritual stones in one fell swoop, no matter how rich you are in ten years, or whether you are three elders, if you are held accountable by the higher authorities in the future, you will be left with nothing to lose.
Emperor Li Tiandi, on the other hand, knew the rules and punishment system of the Tongtian Chamber of Commerce even better than Fumancang, the president of the chamber of commerce, so he seized on this weakness and refused to let go.
"Little friend Li Tiandi, you must be kind. Our Tongtian Chamber of Commerce treats Sect Master Li very well. If you cheat us old men like this, won't your conscience hurt?
‘The great elder said.
"We businessmen are very particular about rules. Sect Master Li, please pat your conscience and say, do you feel heartbroken?"
The second elder said.
"My little friend, we have been acquainted for a while, and I understand your personality. Don't you just want to gain more benefits?
If you speak up, as long as it's not excessive, our Chamber of Commerce will consider it."
The third elder said.
"Hey! Four seniors, aren't you making things difficult for me?
I, too, have difficulties, Mr. Ben."
Emperor Li Tian couldn't help but want to laugh, but he still suppressed it.
"Boy, we are all old foxes for thousands of years. Stop playing this trick with us. Tell us what conditions are needed for you to continue to insist on reform and overthrow the aristocratic rule."
Fu Mancang said through gritted teeth.
"Since the seniors are forcing me to continue, I will reluctantly do so and continue to try.
But the seniors also know that now I am in charge of three states and counties. Such a big stall supports so many people. I ask the juniors to bear the responsibility alone. It is really too much for the juniors. If your Chamber of Commerce wants the juniors to continue, can you help me?
