I'm a Broker in an Otherworldly Realm

My name is Gu Yuan, and I transmigrated...

But I'm not panicking at all, because I have a system.

Others cultivate by snatching resources, while I rely on doing business. As the say...

Chapter 476: Speculation

"Back when I was still a Spirit Master, I was being hunted by the enemy. It was Hammer Emperor who saved me, healed my wounds, and arranged for me to join the Blood Merchant Guild."

"Does the Blood Chamber of Commerce know that you know Old Man Hammer?" asked the little witch.

"I don't know! I've been stationed in the black market all these years. With this cover-up, they can't possibly know that Hammer King and I knew each other before!"

"Go on!" said the little witch with a serious expression.

She also wanted to know how the Blood Chamber of Commerce was able to unite half of the chambers of commerce in the empire and hold such an auction, and how it had been done for decades without anyone causing trouble for them.

"I've been stationed here for a long time, so they only know that Hammer King and I met because of this. In fact, they don't know that Hammer King and I have known each other for a long time. It was also before I was sent to the black market at that time. I was allowed to attend an internal meeting of the Blood Merchant Guild. There was nothing special during the meeting, just some development plans. However, I inadvertently discovered that during our meeting, it seemed that the walls had ears. If I hadn't been alert enough, I wouldn't have been able to sense that aura."

"In that case, that person must be at least at the level of Spiritual Venerable." The little witch guessed.

"Don't forget, that happened more than ten years ago!" said Grandpa Cang.

The little witch narrowed her eyes and said, "It seems that the Blood Merchant Guild is really quite mysterious. I have really underestimated the Blood Merchant Guild over the years. I didn't expect that they are the most hidden in the entire Boulder City!"

"That's why I said that there must be a big force behind the Blood Chamber of Commerce. Otherwise, it would not have been able to sit so peacefully in Boulder City for so many years. After all, forces like the Black Ghost Sect and the Small Buddhist Sect would be jealous of the Blood Chamber of Commerce's foundation, let alone other external forces? But it just happens that, logically speaking, the Blood Chamber of Commerce should have some reputation in the empire, but none of the many forces in the empire are jealous of them. This is extremely abnormal, as if they know that the Blood Chamber of Commerce should not be provoked." Grandpa Cang said.

"Yes, according to common sense, today's auction should be very strict, but strangely, it is not. I think it is just a little stricter than usual. This is really weird! The auction is not the same as the usual auctions. Not only are there treasures at this auction, but the participants are also countless Spirit Kings. Is the Blood Chamber of Commerce so confident that they can control the scene? Aren't they afraid of being robbed by them? They are so confident, which only shows that they have enough ability to solve these problems. But as everyone knows, not counting Senior Cang, the Blood Chamber of Commerce only had two Spirit Kings in the past. Even with the Third Master, there are only three elders, which is inferior to the Black Ghost Gate. This is really strange. Where does their confidence come from?" Gu Yuan said with a frown.

"Of course it comes from the power behind the scenes, or... someone!"

"Someone?"

The little witch raised an eyebrow and said, "If the Blood Chamber of Commerce is really the work of someone, then it would be very interesting. Although the Shuihan Empire is not very powerful, it is really not something that ordinary people can do to gather most of the empire's chambers of commerce. Who could this person be? Or is it actually a force?"

"It doesn't really matter whether it's a person or a force. As long as they pose no threat to us, these are all small matters. After all, they have nothing to do with us. If we do anything rashly, we might offend the person behind them. There's no need for that." Grandpa Cang said.

"Well, what Grandpa Cang said makes sense. How about this, after today, you should go back to the Blood Chamber of Commerce. After all, I have expelled all the elders today. If you stay, it will definitely arouse suspicion. After you go back this time, we don't need to contact each other unless it is necessary. Besides, Old Man Hammer has left, and you are a free person. I have no reason to command you to do anything." said the little witch.

"No, no, no! Miss, what you said is not right! Miss, you are the granddaughter of the Hammer Emperor, and my life was saved by the Hammer Emperor. I can't repay the Hammer Emperor, but the kindness will not fade away. I, Cangli, am not someone who will not repay a favor. From now on, Cangli is willing to obey your orders!"

"Cang Er, what an interesting name!" Gu Yuan listened to Grandpa Cang introducing himself and tried hard to suppress his laughter.

"Okay, Grandpa Cang, there's no need to be like this. That's a matter between you and Old Man Hammer. Now that Old Man Hammer is gone, all the past events should be gone. Besides, if you get bored of staying in the Blood Chamber of Commerce in the future, you can return to the black market. Although you are a member of the Blood Chamber of Commerce on the surface, I think with my strength, I can still ask them for someone!" said the little witch with a smile.

"Well! Thank you very much, Miss! I hope you will promise me that I have no way to repay the Hammer King's kindness, so I can only repay you!"

"Alright, alright, no need to be so polite. Get ready and then go back. If they have any questions, they can ask directly. As for my strength, I can also be frank. They need to know anyway. After all, Old Man Hammer is gone. If I don't show any more strength, then a lot of trouble will come to me."

The little witch sighed and said lightly.

"Young lady is right! With your talent, you will definitely be able to transcend and become a saint. Cangli is waiting for the day when you become a saint, and waiting for you to carry forward my black market!"

It was obvious that Cangli had developed some feelings for the black market, otherwise he wouldn't have said such things.

"To develop the black market?"

The little witch smiled. She had never really thought about these issues.

Now she just wants to maintain the status quo. As long as the black market is under her control and she can do business quietly, it is not a bad thing.

"Okay, it's almost time, you can go back. Be careful on the road." The little witch reminded.

"Okay, Miss. Then, I'll take my leave!"

Cangli nodded, bowed to the little witch, and then left.

"What do you think of this person?" the little witch asked Gu Yuan on the side.

"It's not bad. He seems to be a grateful person. He should be pretty good!"

Gu Yuan looked at the departing figure and said.

"Well, I let him go this time because I wanted to see what he really thinks in his heart and see if he is worth using!" said the little witch with a smile.

"Well, you do need to do some research. After all, you can't be alone in the black market. You may not have time to be here all the time."
