Chapter 73: Su Xing’s Noble, Jin Congxue!
Translator: 549690339
“After attaining the Nine Revolution Golden Core, my speed of alchemy clearly sped up significantly. At my current pace, if I don’t eat, drink, or sleep, I should be able to craft three hundred Nourishing Face Pills in one day and barely manage two thousand in a week. That quantity is far from enough…”
Su Xing refined elixirs while pondering.
“Regardless, let’s make them first and talk later. Being able to stockpile more elixirs always ans selling them for more money!”
Thus, in the following week, Su Xing crafted elixirs day and night, sustaining his stamina with Fasting Pills and not sleeping for seven consecutive days.
Finally, after seven days, Su Xing had crafted a total of one thousand Nourishing Face Pills, three hundred superior Nourishing Face Pills, and eight hundred Wound Healing Pills.
This pace was barely achieved after Su Xing’s strength broke through, squeezing out his very last bit of energy.
After seven days, Su Xing, sporting a pair of dark circles, couldn’t stop yawning.
Continuously crafting elixirs for seven days and nights, expending a great deal of mind and physical strength, it’s fortunate that Su Xing was a Golden Core Stage cultivator, or he would have died from exhaustion long ago.
Looking at the small pile of elixirs in his storage ring, Su Xing revealed a satisfied smile.
“Including the few hundred elixirs I saved up before, I now have three thousand elixirs in my hands. Although that’s not enough to acquire the Lingyun Comrce Guild, it’s only sufficient to give it a try for now!”
Su Xing took out his phone to send a ssage to Jin Congxue, setting up a ti to et.
Half an hour later, the two arrived at the villa, having ordered dinner in advance, ready to eat while talking.
Jin Congxue, seeing Su Xing’s appearance, was stunned for a mont, and with confusion she said,
“I haven’t seen you for a few days, and you sohow look even better—strange, there’s just a sense of being kidney-deficient.”
Su Xing rolled his eyes at the remark. Looking better was due to the effect of his talent, while the kidney-deficiency was entirely because of night-long alchemy sessions!
Soon, the servants delivered the luxurious dinner they had ordered. Su Xing hadn’t eaten in days, and although the Fasting Pills ensured his stamina, he couldn’t help but feast upon seeing the lavish dinner, wildly stuffing a large chicken leg into his mouth.
Watching Su Xing’s unapologetic eating, Jin Congxue rolled her eyes and passed him a napkin, teasing him,
“Are you a starving ghost reincarnated, kiddo? How co it feels like you haven’t eaten in a long ti?”
Su Xing, while wolfing down his food, held up his thumb and said,
“You really missed your calling as a fortune teller! Indeed, I haven’t eaten in several days. Seeing all this delicious food, I truly couldn’t resist!”
After a satisfying al, Su Xing and Jin Congxue got down to business. She first handed over the thirty thousand white-quality pieces of equipnt she had acquired in the week to Su Xing.
Then she continued,
“Su Xing, do you know about the big news in Kyoto’s business world lately? Lingyun Comrce Guild, due to poor managent, has started to offload a large volu of assets, especially the sale of low-tier equipnt. Are you thinking of buying up any of that?”
Su Xing had anticipated this, so he nodded and asked directly,
“I have indeed heard of the Lingyun Comrce Guild, barely considered a first-class guild. But how much liquidity is needed to acquire these assets?”
After hearing this, Jin Congxue held up two fingers and said,
“At least two hundred billion Great Xia Coins! Lingyun Comrce Guild has declined in recent years, but at its peak, it virtually monopolized the market for low-end professionals in Kyoto, being valued at several trillion. A cal, even thin, is still bigger than a horse!”
“Although the Lingyun Comrce Guild has fallen, its current asset valuation is still above five hundred billion Great Xia Coins. However, due to so issues among the guild’s internal shareholders, that’s why assets are being sold off so cheaply!”
“As long as we can acquire Lingyun Comrce Guild, I am confident that I can elevate the Tarot Comrce Association to the ranks of a first-class comrce association within a year!”
Su Xing nodded after hearing this, admiring Jin Congxue’s business acun.
The hallmark of a first-class comrce association is that its industry valuation has to reach over a trillion.
In his previous simulations, even with the advantage of foresight and spending more than a decade, Su Xing had never managed to elevate the Tarot Comrce Association to a first-class comrce association.
It was only a remarkable woman like Jin Congxue, who ca from a family of rchants and possessed a sharp eye, extensive resources, and connections, who could be so sure of her claim.
Su Xing pondered that if Jin Congxue also had talent, it would at least be of a purple-level business tycoon’s caliber.
Su Xing thought for a mont and said:
“Two hundred billion is still too much for the Tarot Comrce Association, which is currently just a second or third-tier comrce association with an industry valuation of only tens of billions… I’m afraid the association can’t co up with so much money, can it?”
In truth, Su Xing had so doubts in the simulations; even if he worked tirelessly at alchemy, gathering two hundred billion in a short ti wasn’t very realistic. How did Jin Congxue manage to acquire Lingyun Comrce Guild?
Jin Congxue patted her generous figure and rolled her eyes as she spoke:
“Su Xing, you really don’t understand the business world at all! Coming up with two hundred billion in cash, even for the Jin rchant Guild, would be difficult. Typically, acquiring an industry is done through asset swaps or incrental buying.”
“With the Tarot Society’s current thin spread of industries, asset swapping is out of the question, but incrental buying is entirely feasible! For the first installnt, just one-tenth of the total capital is enough, which is twenty billion!”
Upon hearing this, Su Xing nodded slightly and took out a bottle of elixirs from his storage ring, saying:
“Here are 1,500 Nourishing Face Pills, 500 premium Nourishing Face Pills, and 1,000 Wound Healing Pills, which are my last in stock. Afterwards, I’ll provide over 1,500 elixirs each week, so try to acquire Lingyun Comrce Guild as soon as possible.”
Jin Congxue was stunned to see Su Xing take out so many elixirs in one go.
The elixirs in Su Xing’s hands were worth 35 billion Great Xia Coins!
Moreover, Su Xing had said that he could supply 1,500 elixirs each week, which ant at least 15 billion in value each week.
“Goodness, you’re practically a walking printing press!”
Jin Congxue was sowhat surprised but then thought for a mont and said:
“I had originally planned that we should at least take over Lingyun Comrce Guild’s industry sector in equipnt trading. But now, seeing the speed at which you make money, we can completely swallow up Lingyun Comrce Guild!”
Seeing Jin Congxue in such an excited state, Su Xing laughed and nodded, but he hesitated inwardly and said:
“However, the initial capital of thirty-five billion might not be enough for the acquisition, and it doesn’t seem quite right to directly use elixirs to buy Lingyun Comrce Guild…”
Hearing Su Xing’s words, Jin Congxue giggled and said:
“Have you forgotten who I am? The young miss of the Jin rchant Guild, I do have so clout! Of course, we won’t be trading the elixirs directly. I’ll first deposit these elixirs in the Jin rchant Guild, getting a loan of thirty or forty billion shouldn’t be a problem!”
“Then, I’ll negotiate the acquisition as the heir of the Jin rchant Guild, using the guild as a guarantor! With this brand na, although the initial tens of billions might seem a little less, as long as you can provide a batch of funds each month, completing the entire acquisition within half a year won’t be a big issue!”
After hearing this, Su Xing was once again moved.
He finally understood how Jin Congxue had managed to acquire Lingyun Comrce Guild within a year in the simulations; with the top-tier Jin rchant Guild as a guarantor, Lingyun Comrce Guild was naturally reassured.
“Jin Congxue really is my benefactor. Without her, the developnt of the Tarot Society would’ve been so much slower…”
