After the competition, everyone returned to the meeting hall. Because Yang Ming showed extraordinary strength, he was placed first under the main seat. This is the habit of Cheng Hua Que. It makes sense to have a big fist. Of course, this It's just a metaphor, it doesn't mean you can do whatever you want if you are strong.
"Okay, elders, let's continue with the topic we just discussed. What do you think about the Chaos Chamber of Commerce?" Shen Yifeng returned to his majestic expression, and his tone was somewhat solemn.
"Uncle Shen, what is the Chaos Chamber of Commerce?" Yang Ming heard this name for the first time and couldn't help but ask.
"Yang Ming, let me answer your question. The Chaos Chamber of Commerce is a chamber of commerce established by the Chaos God Sect last year. The business it operates is roughly the same as our Wanjin Bank. However, because they have branches in all cities, so The scale directly exceeds that of our Wanjin Bank, and they have recruited a large number of demon warriors, so in just one year, the business volume has almost surpassed that of our Wanjin Bank." Shen Jialong said with the same solemn expression.
Shen Shuiyue slapped the table and said loudly: "Isn't this an obvious attempt to steal our business?"
Yang Ming quickly took her hand and signaled her not to get excited. He turned to look at Shen Yifeng, waiting for what he would say.
"Shui Yue is right. The Chaos God Sect's move is obviously to make trouble for our Wanjin Bank, but we can't say anything. In business, one cannot be the only one. In addition, the Chaos Chamber of Commerce has not made any changes to our Wanjin Bank for the time being. If we target the Chaos Chamber of Commerce openly, we will attract people's attention. I am holding this meeting today just to let you make suggestions to deal with the Chaos Chamber of Commerce." Shen Yifeng crossed his fingers, put them on his upper lip, and said in a low voice. .
"Uncle Shen, what is the structure of the Chaos Chamber of Commerce? Is it the same as Wanjinhang?" Yang Ming also noticed that the situation was not optimistic and was also helping to find a solution.
Hearing the price, Shen Yifeng's face became even more gloomy, and he suppressed his anger and said to Yang Ming: "The Chaos Chamber of Commerce's prices for high-end elixirs and magic weapons are almost the same as those of our Wanjin Bank, but some low-level elixirs and magic weapons The price is half to 10% lower than ours, and the purchase price is also half to 10% higher. Even if it is the first time for the auction business to go to their Chaos Chamber of Commerce for auction, the handling fee will be directly waived. These reasons are also As a result, the transaction volume after only one year of establishment is close to the one-year transaction volume of our Wanjin Bank."
When Yang Ming heard this, he was immediately shocked. This Chaos Chamber of Commerce can already influence the life and death of Wanjin Hang. You must know that Wanjin Hang can reach the scale it is today after many years of development. Now a rising chamber of commerce has With such ability, half of Wanjinhang's empire was cut off.
"Uncle Shen, what business does Wan Jinhang have now? Is the business of Chaos Chamber of Commerce exactly the same?" Yang Ming said in a deep voice.
"Now Wanjinhang has five businesses: auction, acquisition, direct sales, Warcraft leasing, and forging intermediary. Chaos Chamber of Commerce has only been established for a year, and its connections are not as good as ours at Wanjinhang, which has been developed for many years, so there is no forging intermediary. , other businesses are the same as ours." Shen Yifeng looked at the intelligence collected by his men and said to Yang Ming. Just four businesses tied Wan Jinhang, which shows that the Chaos Chamber of Commerce is extraordinary.
"A forging agency?" Yang Ming rubbed his chin. Ordinary magic weapons can be bought in magic weapon shops or trading houses, but most of the buyers are relatively low-level magic warriors. When they reach high-level magic warriors, because they pursue more If you have great strength, you will find someone to tailor your own magic weapon, just like Yang Ming's Tianlin Thunder Halberd, so you need to find a forger.
However, high-level blacksmiths are arrogant and will not accept other people's forging requests at will. In addition, most of the blacksmiths have family backgrounds, so someone needs to introduce them, and Wan Jinxing will act as an intermediary. For a role, if someone needs to forge a magic weapon, they should first find Wan Jin Xing. Wan Jin Xing will do a preliminary screening and then introduce them to blacksmiths of different levels. If they succeed, they will charge an appropriate fee. This is a forging intermediary.
Shen Jialong suddenly remembered and said to Yang Ming quickly: "Yang Ming, don't you know Master Shan Liwen? Can you ask him to explain to the family that most blacksmiths should not cooperate with the Chaos Chamber of Commerce?"
"Master Shan? What does this have to do with Master Shan?" Yang Ming was confused by what Shen Jialong said.
"Ah, you don't know Master Shan's background?" Shen Jialong looked at Yang Ming in disbelief. He thought that Yang Ming's magic weapon was forged by Shan Liwen, so he should know Shan Liwen's family.
Shen Shuiyue explained to Yang Ming in a low voice: "Yang Ming, Master Shan Liwen's family is the founder and leader of the Yin-Yang Plate Blacksmith Association. Seeing that you are so familiar with Master Shan, I thought you knew it."
"I just happened to see Master Shan for something, so I got to know him. I don't know much about his family, but he has such a big background!" Yang Ming smiled stupidly.
Yang Ming didn't know Shan Liwen's background at all. If he hadn't passed Huangjia Village before going to Shuiyue City and got their village treasure bow embryo, he wouldn't have known Shan Liwen, and there wouldn't have been anything that happened next. Even if he knew Shan Liwen Being worshiped by the Shuiyue City Auction House is just a one-sided relationship, and there won't be much intersection, so everything seems to be destined in some unknown way.
After hearing Shen Jialong's proposal, Shen Yifeng's eyes lit up. If the cooperation between the Chaos Chamber of Commerce and the Blacksmiths Association could be prevented, then Wanjinhang would have leverage to fight against the Chaos Chamber of Commerce. You must know that high-level magic warriors all want to have their own Exclusive magic weapon, Chaos Chamber of Commerce without intermediary services, no matter how big other businesses are, they cannot threaten Wanjin Bank.
Yang Ming said: "I will talk to Master Shan, but I can't guarantee whether it will work out. I can only guarantee that Master Shan Liwen will not cooperate with the Chaos Chamber of Commerce."
Um?
Shen Yifeng heard the hidden meaning of Yang Ming's words and couldn't help but think in his heart: It seems that my future son-in-law is not simple. I can decide the whereabouts of a black soul demon warrior. The relationship between him and Shan Liwen is far from that. It's so easy to understand.
After that, everyone discussed other countermeasures, but the predicted results were to treat the symptoms rather than the root cause, which would not be as effective as blocking the cooperation between the Chaos Chamber of Commerce and the Blacksmiths Association, so they stopped discussing it. Everything would wait until Yang Ming and Shan Liwen discussed it. Yang Ming also He decided to go back to Shuiyue City in two days and talk to Shan Liwen about the matter. Only Yang Ming would go back this time.
…
At night, Yang Ming was resting in the guest room. Suddenly there was a knock on the door. Yang Ming opened the door and saw Shen Shuiyue's charming smile. There were several people standing behind her, two of them he I also know them, Shen Yifeng and Shen Jialong.
Several people walked into Yang Ming's room. As soon as Shen Shuiyue came in, she sat directly next to Yang Ming, leaving Shen Yifeng, a father, speechless for a while. She really didn't leave a woman behind!
"Uncle Shen, it's so late. Do you have anything to say to me?" Yang Ming asked Shen Yifeng and others to sit down.
Shen Yifeng said with a smile: "Actually, it's nothing. I just want to introduce Shuiyue's brothers to you. This is the eldest brother Shen Jialong, whom you have met before." After Shen Yifeng finished speaking, Shen Jialong smiled and said to her. Yang Ming nodded.
Then, Shen Yifeng introduced: "This is the second brother, Shen Zidong, followed by the third brother Shen Yuanyang and the fourth brother Shen Chengxing."
After hearing their names, Shen Zidong and Shen Chengxing also nodded slightly. The former was calm and had an ice face, but the latter had a curious look on his face and kept looking at Yang Ming. But the third brother Shen Yuanyang turned his head. Without looking at Yang Ming, it seems that he is resentful towards Yang Ming.
Yang Ming responded one by one, but when it came to Shen Yuanyang, he didn't know what to do and could only ask Shen Shuiyue for help.
"Third brother! If you keep doing this, I won't get along with you." Seeing this, Shen Shuiyue said angrily.
As soon as Shen Yuanyang heard Shen Shuiyue's scolding, he immediately took Shuiyue's hand and said, "No, no, no, no, Shuiyue, don't be angry with Third Brother, I just don't like you being so nice to other men."
At this time, Shen Yifeng spoke: "Okay, it's not embarrassing. Don't mind, Yang Ming. My uncle only has five children, and only Shui Yue is a girl, so her four brothers love and pamper Shui Yue. "
Yang Ming smiled and shook his head, saying that he didn't mind. It was a good thing that Shui Yue had so many brothers who loved him. This reminded him that he also had a "sister" who loved him: Sister Xiao Wei, how are you doing now?
Shen Yifeng added: "Now you have seen me, Yang Ming, don't forget what I told you during the day."
When Yang Ming thought about what Shen Yifeng said about sparring with his four sons during the day, his smile suddenly stiffened and he laughed in agreement.
As soon as the conversation changed, Shen Yifeng lowered his voice and said to Yang Ming: "Yang Ming, from your words during the day, I heard that your relationship with Master Shan Liwen is not ordinary, right?"
Yang Ming thought for a while, then nodded and said: "Actually, my relationship with Master Shan Liwen was quite normal. Until I saved his wife's life, he insisted on treating me as his master. I couldn't refuse even if I wanted to. .”
Everyone was shocked after hearing this. Shen Yifeng originally thought that the two were good friends, but he underestimated it. Shan Liwen actually regarded Yang Ming as his master. A blacksmithing master lowered his status to recognize a junior as his master. No one told him. believe.
"No wonder you said that Master Shan would never cooperate with the Chaos Chamber of Commerce. It turns out that you have such a relationship. Yang Ming, you gave me another surprise."
Shen Yifeng sighed. In just one day, Yang Ming gave him several surprises. First, he was strong but not arrogant. Second, he had superior combat power. Now even the blacksmith master has to bow to him. This son-in-law is really getting more and more popular. like.
At this time, the third brother Shen Yuanyang said loudly: "Yang Ming, my father's evaluation of you does not represent my opinion. If you want me to admit you, just defeat me. I don't want you to hold back. Do you dare?"
"Yuanyang, don't go too far!" Shen Jialong shouted angrily.
"Brother, please leave me alone. You also know my character. I only obey people who are better than me. If I don't lose to him for a day, I won't obey him. Even if you say he is better than my father!" Shen Yuanyang replied! My own big brother.
Yang Ming looked at Shen Yifeng, but the latter did not stop him as if he had expected it. He just said lightly: "My son is like this. Yang Ming, just have a fight with him, as long as he is not crippled." .”
