Chapter 994: It Would Be Stranger If One Could Not Discern It

Yun Yang smiled faintly.
“One will always be filled with endless desires. This is an unavoidable quest for any cultivator or anyone for that matter, even . Still, this ti, I genuinely hope that the resources involved aren’t too extravagant. Since all of you have co personally with so much sincerity… What do you think if we fix the highest limit of this transaction at nine hundred thousand taels?”
A substantial amount from the last million-tael deal was Yun Yang’s commission. This ti around, a hundred thousand taels had been knocked off; it seed like Yun Yang had decreased his commission by one hundred thousand taels, but the fact was that he had fixed the total value of their transaction at one million taels. This was nearly double the price of the last transaction.
Six hundred thousand taels were the price tag the last ti around as the rest from the trade had been pocketed by Yun Yang. Now that the bonus was given, it could not be taken back. It looked like Yun Yang had given them a discount of one hundred thousand taels, but there was actually a hike of four hundred thousand taels in the asking price; the reality was a reduction of one hundred thousand tales at the corresponding expense of inflation by three hundred thousand taels. In addition, the one hundred thousand taels discount was limited to this particular transaction; the trades that followed after this would still be one million taels!
This was daylight robbery!
The n from the General Comrce League did not look pleased.
This was Yun Yang’s instant and effective payback. He had told them that it was a bad idea to frequent the Spirit’s Grave, but the General Comrce League was so impatient that they continued to urge him to enter the Spirit’s Grave continuously. In essence, they had no regard for Yun Yang’s situation. Of course he would be justified in limiting the total value of their transaction. A trade was supposed to be fair and impartial to all sides; another party would only turn more insatiable and exploiting if one party was a yes man all the way.
The issue was as apparent to Lang Fantian. With an inward sigh, he chuckled dryly and said, “This is fully your decision, Brother Yun. The league is very much in need of the vitality Qi, so we would have to trouble you for it.”
To Lang Fantian and the General Comrce League, Yun Yang had gotten plenty of personal gains throughout their trades. Although the General Comrce League was a little too eager this ti, their decision was based upon considering the overall picture of things. Giving in now would only further fortify their collaboration, especially when Yun Yang had received many bonuses the last ti; it would be the best if he stayed away from accepting any dividends as the league could save a bunch that way.
It was, of course, unexpected that Yun Yang did not yield, but had instead set a number on the total value of their trading resources, putting the General Comrce League in their place.
Yun Yang’s words were like a double-edged sword. Firstly, it was telling the league that they were in an actual monetary collaboration; the amount suggested was the amount due, period. Then, he was pointedly concise about their transaction; the league wanted to make multiple deals despite the short period of ti, fine, but the highest limit would be set by Yun Yang and no one else.
Other than poking fun at himself, Yun Yang’s ntion of everyone’s endless desires just now also suggested that the owner of the Spirit’s Grave could get greedy from the frequent exchanges. What should Yun Yang do if there were no recurring trades of high value? Furthermore, he was also ridiculing the General Comrce League’s impatience to obtain quick success, coercion, and unreliability.
Lang Fantian and his colleagues were experienced seniors. It was not difficult for them to identify the jab. However, they were powerless against Yun Yang. He was, after all, the monopoly supplier.
Nevertheless, it was with one reply that the General Comrce League’s transaction value was restrained. It could even cost them the purpose of this exchange and cause the group to return in disappointnt.
The corner of Lang Fantian’s lips twitched, but in the end, he said nothing.
The league’s decision actually contained another consideration. They were using this opportunity to test if Yun Yang’s narration of opening the Spirit’s Grave too many a ti would harm himself was true. This was a major factor. In spite of this, it did seem to be mostly true, based on the current situation and Yun Yang’s staunch attitude; not only had the league suffered a loss from probing, they had offended Yun Yang deeply. At the very least, their relationship was not as harmonious as it once was!
Yun Yang had still welcod the entourage of the General Comrce League into the Residence of Nine Supres’ guest room warmly.
As Lang Fantian and the Eight Golden Guards stepped foot into the Residence of Nine Supres, they were genuinely shocked. Their eyes shone with disbelief and amazent.
Upon allowing the troop to settle down, Yun Yang apologized and exited without further pleasantries. He was a busy bee in addition to the necessity to leave ti and space for this group of n to react and discuss among themselves.
The General Comrce League’s action this ti was reasonable and expected to Yun Yang, but it did not an that the forr felt the sa towards him. What he could do now was to leave them in a relatively private room for their discussion.
After Yun Yang left, the comrce league’s mbers ford a circle. There was no obvious superiority or subordinate arrangent. Lang Fantian, who was on one side of the circle, looked grim as he pondered upon the situation with a frown.
Xiao Jianghu was the first one to speak, his tone low. “Why does this Leader Yun seem to have seen past my identity?”
Lang Fantian gave a bitter chuckle. “It’s not that I’m putting Yun Yang on the pedestal, but this leader of a sect truly has the brains and tactics which are hard to be found across hundreds of thousands of years in the whole of Bound of Universe, despite his young age. It’s not too much a surprise that he discovered sothing odd in you, boss. Forget everything else, wasn’t his decision just now already earth-shattering?”
“Hmm? I didn’t know that you regard Leader Yun so highly, Fantian!” said Xiao Jianghu.
Lang Fantian breathed in and replied, “I thought that all of us from the league shares so judgnt about Leader Yun. I see that’s not the case. Boss, do you know that the first ti I t Yun Yang, there were only two of them, but they had already created a na for themselves, the Raiders of All But God? And when they struck business deals with us, the whole process was almost trivial, our partnership smoothly achieved.”
Xiao Jianghu exclaid, “Of course I know about this - If not for that day’s encounter, how could today happen?”
Lang Fantian shook his head.
“This wasn’t the only reason I attached great importance to this child. He has many secrets, each one a huge mystery that shakes the world, and we, whose capabilities far exceeds his own and who know very well the value of these secrets, dare not lay a finger on him. At most, we probe and test carefully. Tracking it all the way to the source, while there are many surprise elents, more of it is due to Yun Yang’s way of handling things.”
Xiao Jianghu nodded. “Indeed. While I thought that this child must be superior to others in so sense after listening to you talking about his excellence, I was still doubtful and a tad disdainful. From what I saw today, he is truly impressive!”
“The Residence of Nine Supres was already slowly taking its form the second ti we t. Today marks our third eting and the inside of the residence is essentially completed, with hints of its bright future showing.”
“It’s only been two to three months apart, but each ti we t, it’s accompanied by a sense of astonishnt. The amazent all cos from the achievent he’s reached in such incredibly short ti. It’s what others couldn’t have done.”
“This is why I say that it isn’t a shock that he sees past your identity,” sighed Lang Fantian, “Instead, I’d be the one taken aback if he didn’t realize it.”
