Everyone also fell silent and greeted each other respectfully.
After all, Wei Xinghua and the other three are not only the leaders of the organizer, but also monks in the foundation-building stage. They are higher than them in terms of cultivation and seniority.
"It seems that the gray-haired old man is Yu Haojie, the owner of Wuqing Mountain, and the burly man is Yan Hongzhi, who ranks second."
Chen Hao looked at the three people and thought to himself.
Before coming to Trading Place City, Xie Bingyun had already introduced him to the situation in Wuqingshan in detail.
Yu Haojie said loudly: "According to the regulations of the trading market, all sellers are not allowed to engage in any form of low-price vicious competition, including discounts.
So please fellow Taoists, please don’t play around with things and strictly abide by the rules.”
As he spoke, he glanced sternly at the woman in black skirt.
Just now, everyone was discounting one after another, one discount was lower than the other, and this woman was the initiator.
The woman in black skirt smiled coquettishly, saluted awkwardly and said: "Yes, Master Yu, I understand this junior."
Yu Haojie added: "The purpose of our trading market is to exchange what we have, and exchange the output of our own sect for the output of other sects to achieve a win-win goal of mutual benefit.
If you use the remaining resources that have been purchased to lower prices to win customers, wouldn't it mean harming the interests of the output sect?
Therefore, please fellow sects who do not produce ambergris, please do not be blinded by temporary gains and do anything that harms the operating mechanism of the trading market. Please return to your respective booths immediately."
When the monks who bid for the price heard this, although they were reluctant, they could not refute, and they all returned to their respective booths in silence.
In a blink of an eye, only monk Peng, the woman in black skirt, Chen Hao, Tian Yao and some idle monks were left in front of the booth where Lin Qi was.
Yu Haojie didn't even look at Chen Hao, and said calmly: "You are the only three companies in the city that produce ambergris, Daoyou Lin, Daoyou Peng, and Daoyou Li. Although pricing is a voluntary act and no one else has the right to interfere, but before
You have agreed to jointly raise the price of ambergris, and now you have suddenly lowered the price. Isn't this an arbitrary breach of the contract?
Is it okay to go back on your word and not keep your word just for a piece of spiritual stone?"
When the monk surnamed Peng and the woman in black skirt heard this, they murmured in their hearts: "You put it lightly, don't you know how precious spiritual stones are?"
But on the surface, the two of them naturally didn't dare to say that.
The monk surnamed Peng said with a smile: "What Shanzhu Yu said is that I am not untrustworthy. I just saw that Taoist An paid with spiritual stones and wanted to buy ambergris from Taoist Lin at a low price.
Shi, if you agree directly, wouldn’t this constitute vicious low-price competition and break the rules of the market?
In order to prevent Daoyou Lin from being confused and going astray, I had an idea and agreed to the price mentioned by Daoyou An.
Alas, in order to maintain the rules of the city, I have to worry a lot."
When he said this, his face suddenly became solemn, and he said righteously: "But I never expected that Li Daoyou was greedy for profit. In order to obtain the spirit stone, he cunningly resorted to discounting and maliciously lowered the price, causing the chaotic situation just now. This
This kind of behavior is the real breach of contract. It is not trustworthy and seriously violates the rules of the market. It is recommended that Master Yu severely punish Li Daoyou and prohibit her from trading in the market."
When everyone heard this, they all suddenly felt like shit in their hearts.
This guy is really good at talking.
The woman in the black dress was so angry that she said angrily: "Peng, you are talking nonsense! You were obviously the first to agree to Fellow Daoist An's request for a price reduction in order to obtain the spirit stone.
Now you describe yourself as a white lotus and others are the ones who break the rules. Do you think I don’t understand your dirty thoughts?
You just deliberately poured dirty water on me just to suppress your competitors."
The monk surnamed Peng looked disdainfully: "Pull him down, you are so dirty. You are so dark that you can't even see it. You don't need me to pour dirty water on you."
"What the hell I'm wearing is black, what does it have to do with being dirty?"
"Then who knows, do you want to confess?"
...Seeing that the two of them were about to quarrel again, Yu Haojie frowned and shouted: "Stop quarreling."
The two of them stopped talking angrily.
Yu Haojie said: "Let me ask you, will the price of ambergris be lowered?"
The monk surnamed Peng and the woman in black skirt reluctantly glanced at the spirit stone in Chen Hao's hand. After hesitating for a few seconds, they shook their heads together.
Obviously, Qingqingshan just doesn't want Lianyue Palace to buy things at low prices, even if they use spirit stones.
Although spiritual stones are very rare, one piece is of little use, so it is naturally uneconomical to offend Wuqingshan for this.
Yu Haojie looked at Lin Qi: "Fellow Daoist Lin, what do you think?"
Although Lin Qi was simple, he was not stupid. He naturally understood what Wuqingshan meant. He sighed and looked at Chen Hao apologetically: "I'm sorry, Daoyou An, if Daoyou Peng and Daoyou Li don't lower the price, I can't lower the price either."
Yu Haojie seemed to see Chen Hao and said calmly: "Fellow Daoist An, have you heard this?
Please don’t use spiritual stones as a temptation to disrupt the order of the trading market.”
Wei Xinghua's face was full of gloating, and he continued: "But you can still trade with spirit stones. According to the exchange standard of the market, one spirit stone is equivalent to twenty Qi Gathering Pills. Since the price of ambergris will not be reduced, it will still be five Gathering Pills.
One Qi Dan.
In other words, one spiritual stone can buy four sticks of ambergris.
Please do as you please."
The burly man Yan Hongzhi folded his arms and said with a smile: "Junior Brother Wei, you have forgotten one thing. The ambergris from the Jihuo Sect represented by Fellow Daoist Lin has just been used by Junior Nephew Lu Ming with 30 pieces per four sticks.
I bought all the Qi Pills at a high price, and they are now on the books. If Fellow Daoist An wants to buy them at a high price from Fellow Daoist Lin, the price must be higher than ours. It is impossible for one spiritual stone to buy four sticks of ambergris.
Two at most.”
Wei Xinghua patted his head and showed a look of sudden realization: "Senior Brother Yan, if you hadn't reminded me, I almost forgot.
But in this case, wouldn’t Fellow Daoist An be even more at a loss?”
He burst out laughing.
"Senior An, you gritted your teeth and took out a spiritual stone as if you were vomiting blood. You wanted to buy ambergris at a low price, but unfortunately you didn't succeed. Do you feel very humiliated? It feels like you shot yourself in the foot?"
"It doesn't matter, Senior An. Although you are in trouble, it is still worth it to save a precious spiritual stone."
"Come with empty hands, leave with empty hands, find nothing. This idiom is dedicated to Senior An and Lianyue Palace."
Naturally, Lu Ming and other disciples would not miss the opportunity to flatter their master, and they all mocked him in a strange way.
The other monks also looked at Chen Hao with pity.
They thought that Chen Hao took out the spirit stone at the cost of the coffin just to save the face of Lianyue Palace and confront Wuqingshan.
Do you want to unite with other sects to punish me?
I would rather pay the price of a spiritual stone than let you fail! And Chen Hao is just a little bit away from successfully making a comeback.
It's a pity that the three foundation-building monks from Qingqingshan came forward, threatened and lured them with a few words, and turned the situation around again.
