Listening to Mu San's previous words, Lie Yuer frowned subconsciously, because she felt that Mu San did not want to communicate with her. She originally thought that the development of the Abyss Pawnshop was at this point and that was why he was disdainful to communicate with her at the moment. However, after hearing Mu San's later words, Lie Yuer widened her eyes.
Looking at the person walking towards him from behind the Three Gods, he opened his mouth, then covered his red lips and said in shock: "Gu Yuan? You're back?"
Gu Yuan stepped out from behind Mu San, looked at Lie Yu'er over there and said with a smile, "Ms. Yu'er, long time no see, how are you?"
As if still in shock, Lie Yu'er felt that she had lost her composure. She hurriedly adjusted herself, looked at Gu Yuan, and said resentfully, "What's good about that? Do I look good now?"
Gu Yuan looked at her and said, "Come on, don't just stand here. Let's go in and talk. If there's anything, we can talk inside."
Several people went in and sat down together. Gu Yuan looked at Lie Yu'er and said, "Miss Yu'er, what is your purpose for coming here today? You may as well tell me. If I can help you, I will definitely help you."
Lie Yu'er looked at Gu Yuan, smiled miserably, and said, "How did you know that I came here today to talk to you about something?"
Gu Yuan tilted his head, then he said: "Maybe it's intuition, I don't know."
Lie Yu'er looked at Gu Yuan and said, "Since you're back, I won't beat around the bush. Gu Yuan, I came to you today for a purpose. My purpose is to have your Abyss Pawnshop take over our Tianxuan Auction House and have our Tianxuan Auction House join your Abyss Pawnshop. From now on, we at the Abyss Pawnshop will be yours, and everything will be yours."
Gu Yuan asked in surprise: "Why? Is it because business is not as good as before?"
"It seems you already know everything. Shopkeeper Mu should have told you the situation."
Lie Yuer smiled bitterly and said, "You have no idea how terrifyingly fast your Abyss Pawnshop has grown over the past six months. Our auction house was already a well-established force in Beastmaster City. I still remember when you first established the Abyss Pawnshop, I never thought it would develop to this point in just six months. Your Abyss Pawnshop is too powerful, and your business is simply growing bigger and bigger."
At our Tianxuan Auction House, our peak moments were not even one-third of what you have now.
So under your influence, our Tianxuan Auction House can't keep up with you at all. Now all the traffic has been attracted by your Abyss Pawnshop, resulting in there being almost no people in our Tianxuan Auction House.
If this continues, our Tianxuan Auction House will sooner or later become deserted, so after careful consideration, I came here to seek your help."
Sure enough, it now seems that Mu San was right. It was indeed because of the development of his Abyss Pawnshop that they became what they are now. Gu Yuan was very sorry about this, but there was nothing he could do.
The market is chosen by people themselves, not something they can determine. He would not give up his Abyss Pawnshop business for the Tianxuan Auction House.
He looked at Lie Yu'er and said, "Has the Tianxuan Auction House reached this point?"
Lie Yu'er nodded and said, "That's indeed the case. Shopkeeper Mu should be most familiar with this situation. I don't want this to happen, but it is the truth, and there's nothing I can do to save it."
Gu Yuan shook his head. "Tianxuan Auction House is your family's property for the New Year. Are you really willing to leave it to my mother? Although I don't want to see her become like this, I think I feel uncomfortable with him being like this. Are you really willing to let him leave it to me?"
Lie Yu'er was obviously unwilling but said helplessly: "Business is like this. I can't ask you to restore our Tianxuan Auction House to its original state and return it to me. Our Tianxuan Auction House is indeed not suitable for continuing to operate in its current state. It may be because of some obsession that we want to continue, so now I ask you to let us join you.
After joining, all the profits of our Tianxuan Auction House will belong to you, but you must provide protection to everyone in our Tianxuan Auction House.
Our Tianxuan Auction House is equivalent to becoming one of your branches. We have only one request, which is that you can allow us to operate independently, but all the profits will be yours.
After a moment of silence, Gu Yuan looked at Lie Yu'er and said, "I know you are definitely unwilling to accept this, so I cannot accept this decision."
Lie Yu'er's face turned depressed. He looked at Gu Yuan and said, "That's right. Our Tianxuan Auction House has become like this now. It is worthless in your eyes. It is indeed not on the same level as your Abyss Pawnshop.
Sorry to bother you, I'll be back soon."
Gu Yuan looked at Lie Yu'er helplessly and said, "What are you talking about? After all, you helped us before, and we have a cooperative relationship. Although the Tianxuan Auction House has become like this, I am not an ungrateful villain. What I mean is that the Tianxuan Auction House can join our Abyss Pawnshop, but this auction house will still be run by your people.
I will provide you with financial and human support. If you need anything, you can ask me. However, you will take 50% of all the profits, and we will split it 50-50. How about that? This way you can continue to exist. After all, your Tianxuan Auction House is an old-fashioned force here, so I don't want it to disappear into the long river of history."
Lie Yuer was shocked after hearing what Gu Yuan said. She looked at Gu Yuan and said in disbelief, "Really? You are willing to help us like this?"
Gu Yuan looked at her and smiled, "Why not? You helped us without reservation back then. Without your help, the Abyss Pawnshop wouldn't have been able to develop so smoothly."
Lie Yu'er's face was filled with excitement. She looked at Gu Yuan and said, "Okay! But we can't take 50% because you provided the financial and material resources. We only provided some people, so how about we take 20%?"
Gu Yuan shook his head firmly and said, "No, if you take 20%, this deal will definitely not work. I, Gu Yuan, am not a greedy person. I only want 50%, and the rest will be all yours. Otherwise, I won't do this deal."
Lie Yu'er was very excited. "Thank you, thank you so much. Gu Yuan, thank you very much for helping us at Tianxuan Auction House."
Gu Yuan smiled and said, "We are friends. Isn't it normal for friends to help each other?"
