Yang Xizhi frowned, his tone extremely serious: "The day after tomorrow will be the auction of the control rights of Sanyang Street. This is probably our only chance to turn things around."
In the Cang Yun Empire, the business world is not like other industries where people fight for their lives at every turn.
Struggles in the business world usually do not involve fighting but only target industries, but sometimes this kind of battle without the smoke of gunpowder is even more terrifying.
The business world competes on financial resources. If you don’t have enough financial resources, you will definitely not be able to compete with other chambers of commerce.
Before, their Anyun Chamber of Commerce was just an ordinary small chamber of commerce, eating the leftovers of the big chambers of commerce, so no one paid attention to it. However, in recent years, their chamber of commerce has gained considerable response with its good reputation, and the profits of all chambers of commerce have also been booming.
But there are only so many cakes in the imperial city. If you eat more, others will naturally eat less, and you will inevitably be targeted.
Therefore, the four most influential chambers of commerce joined forces to put pressure on Anyun Chamber of Commerce. These days have been extremely difficult, with the chamber of commerce's income plummeting and it is almost on the verge of being unsustainable.
"I'm afraid it will be difficult for us to compete for Sanyang Street. With our current strength, even if we offer a higher price, they will definitely be able to keep up. Unless our Chamber of Commerce sells off its core industries, but that would be putting the cart before the horse."
"That's right. Sanyang Street has a huge flow of people. If anyone can gain control of it, they will have absolute say in the surrounding area."
"The four major chambers of commerce will not give up. They originally intended to beat Anyun Chamber of Commerce back to its original form. How could they possibly give us a chance? Just give up on this idea."
"Then what do you say we should do? Are we really going to disband? Everyone, you are all the elders of Anyun Chamber of Commerce. The Chamber of Commerce exists because of your interests. If the Chamber of Commerce is gone, will you all starve?"
Someone couldn't help but shout, and the others fell silent.
really.
Their interests are deeply tied to Anyun Chamber of Commerce. If anything happens to Anyun Chamber of Commerce, they will also be affected significantly.
We have been discussing it for a long time, but there is still no suitable solution.
Finally, the hall fell into silence again, and no one spoke.
Yang Xizhi could only speak: "No matter what, let's go and see what's going on at the auction. It's led by the royal family. Even if the four major chambers of commerce have some connections within the royal family, with so many eyes watching, it will be difficult for them to do anything."
"During this time, I'll try to find some connections and see if I can use immortal crystals to solve the problem. If there's really no other way, I'll sell all my property and take over Sanyang Street."
His tone was full of determination. He had put a lot of effort into Anyun Chamber of Commerce and it was impossible for him to give up just like that. As long as it wasn't the last moment, he would not give up.
Seeing this, the others looked at each other. Some of them wanted to say something but stopped themselves, wanting to persuade Yang Xizhi, but in the end they did not say a word.
Given the current situation, it will be difficult for Anyun Chamber of Commerce to continue to exist.
The four major chambers of commerce are pressing forward step by step. How can Anyun Chamber of Commerce fight against the four major chambers of commerce?
It’s too difficult!
It's basically impossible to do.
But it would definitely not be nice to say such things, so everyone chose to keep silent.
Yang Lan watched a group of elders talking, and she couldn't get a word in. She could only watch from the side with worry.
After the meeting, Yang Xizhi left Yang Lan alone.
"father?"
Yang Lan asked with curiosity on her face.
Yang Xizhi sighed silently: "Next, you should get in touch with that adult. It would be best if he can take you away."
"Dad, I won't leave!"
Yang Lan immediately shook her head.
Yang Xizhi's eyes were somewhat lonely, and he said gloomily: "Don't worry, Dad will be fine, but I'm afraid that my Anyun Chamber of Commerce will soon cease to exist. If you follow me, I'm afraid you will suffer. Dad doesn't want this to happen."
"It's best for you to follow that adult."
He never thought that Su Chen would help. After all, this was the imperial city. Although Su Chen had the cultivation level of an Immortal King, this realm was not enough for the royal family.
As for the situation where Su Chen used fairy crystals to help them solve the problem, he had never thought about it.
Taking control of Sanyang Street is not a small amount of money. Even an Immortal King cultivator would be seriously injured. Even if it was during the heyday of their Anyun Chamber of Commerce, they would probably have to empty all their money.
How could Su Chen possibly take out so many spirit stones to help Anyun Chamber of Commerce?
With tears in her eyes, Yang Lan looked at her father helplessly.
Yang Xizhi's voice rang out again: "Do you remember what your father taught you? Never let your romantic feelings get in the way. This incident has a huge impact. If Anyun Chamber of Commerce really disappears, I might be very busy and won't have time to take care of you."
"But I can help you."
Yang Lan suddenly spoke.
Yang Xizhi was stunned for a moment. He turned his head to look at Yang Lan's somewhat stubborn expression, then smiled with relief: "No need, you have your own life too."
Yang Lan has a good talent in business and can indeed help him, but he doesn't want Yang Lan to suffer with him.
For Yang Xizhi, as a man, she should bear all this.
Yang Xizhi suddenly felt exhausted. All the efforts of these years were suddenly wasted. He was a little upset and there was silence in the hall for a long time.
He slowly stood up, as if he had aged ten years, and walked out of the hall.
Yang Lan just stood there in a daze without saying a word. She really wanted to help Yang Xizhi, but there was nothing she could do and she could only watch.
Faced with such a thing, she felt helpless.
Yang Lan returned to the backyard, and just as she was about to reach the yard where Su Chen was, a smile appeared on her face again. Yang Lan didn't want her negative emotions to affect Su Chen.
She also didn't want Su Chen to help her for her sake.
It would cost a lot of fairy crystals to take over Sanyang Street. Whenever she mentioned it, Su Chen would be embarrassed. For some reason, Yang Lan always felt that as long as she opened her mouth, Su Chen would help her.
So she couldn't ask Su Chen for help no matter what.
Yang Lan smiled and said, "The future is still long. We can overcome these difficulties. Come on!"
She cheered herself up and comforted herself.
Walking into the yard, Su Chen was making tea with great skill, even more so than Yang Lan. He was like a master craftsman, and every movement was so graceful.
Yang Lan was fascinated for a moment.
The crisis facing the Chamber of Commerce seemed to be resolved the moment it saw Su Chen, and all the melancholy emotions were swept away.
