#674 - Chapter 674: Put Yourself in the Right Position

Gu Qingyi was completely dumbfounded when she received the news.

As the current president of the Huatong Chamber of Commerce, she had no idea what was going on.

"President, someone is here to see you," the subordinate reported.

"Who is it?"

"The visitor claims to be from the Military and Political Department."

"Quick, invite them in!" Gu Qingyi walked to her desk and sat down.

"President Gu, long time no see!" the visitor said with a smile as soon as he entered the door.

"Councilor Liu, long time no see. What wind has blown you here?" Gu Qingyi was taken aback, then immediately replied with a smile.

"President Gu, I had no choice but to come! Your Huatong Chamber of Commerce has cut off all contact with the Military and Political Department, and I can't reach you otherwise!" Liu Feiying said with a hint of implication.

"Councilor Liu, the communication disruption has been going on for almost two years, right? Your reaction is quite slow," Gu Qingyi retorted without fear.

"Really? Has it been that long? I thought it was just a few days ago. Time really flies!" Liu Feiying didn't confront her directly.

Logically speaking, Gu Qingyi's control over the Huatong Chamber of Commerce was an extremely serious matter. However, everyone knew that she was a powerful cult leader, so what could they do? Hold her accountable? The conditions for that had never been in place.

Now, the opportunity had arrived.

Having this chance to get a handle on Gu Qingyi, Liu Feiying definitely had to come himself.

"I wonder what brings Councilor Liu here this time?" Gu Qingyi was too lazy to exchange pleasantries and went straight to the point.

She guessed that it was ninety percent due to the council's announcement.

"It's like this. This morning, the council issued an announcement to launch a 'Miracle Water' product. The distribution channel has always been managed by the Huatong Chamber of Commerce, so you'll have to handle this matter. Here are the documents." Liu Feiying raised his hand.

The soldier behind him stepped forward and handed over the documents.

Gu Qingyi took the documents and began to read them carefully.

She had only received the news and hadn't personally seen the announcement.

"Councilor Liu, is this 'Miracle Water' really reliable? I feel like it's too good to be true," Gu Qingyi asked after reading.

"What? You don't believe what the council says?" Liu Feiying's tone contained a hint of blame.

Gu Qingyi couldn't afford to lose her temper right now, so she explained:

"After all, the Huatong Chamber of Commerce needs to sell this product, so I have to understand the actual situation."

"The documents have already explained it very clearly, and I believe you fully understand. The only question is whether the Huatong Chamber of Commerce still has the ability to distribute it. We have a big question mark over that."

"I need to see the actual effect, otherwise, I won't launch it for sale," Gu Qingyi refused.

"President Gu, I remind you to recognize your position. The council is your superior leadership department, and you have an obligation to unconditionally execute orders." Liu Feiying's face turned cold.

Now, he wasn't afraid at all.

If Gu Qingyi had any sense, she wouldn't dare to lose her temper at all.

She simply couldn't figure out what kind of power the council possessed.

"Councilor Liu, please also understand that the Chamber of Commerce has the right to ensure the reliability of the product quality. I now believe that the council is engaging in false advertising, and I have an obligation to stop it," Gu Qingyi didn't give an inch.

"Bang!" Liu Feiying slammed the table and said:

"Gu Qingyi, who do you think you are? A cultist, putting on airs? If you know what's good for you, do as I say, otherwise, you can forget about this president position!"

"Humph! Since you put it that way, let's talk frankly. A potion for 10 crystal cores, isn't it just saline solution? Selling it is fine, but I want to take 70%," Gu Qingyi said calmly.

In her opinion, what about 30 days to Golden Core, 6 months to Integration, 1 year to Tribulation? It's just talk, right?

This is like burning paper money during the Qingming Festival, just fooling ghosts.

Reaching the 9th rank in 1 year? Then haven't I lived in vain for thousands of years?

"Take 70%? Okay, no problem." Liu Feiying wasn't angry either, and sat back down.

Originally, out of the 10 crystal cores, only 1 crystal core was for the cost, and the rest was for the Huatong Chamber of Commerce's channel fees.

He didn't expect Gu Qingyi to only want 70% herself, so why wouldn't he agree?

"You agree?" Gu Qingyi felt like she had fallen into a trap when she saw Liu Feiying agreeing so readily.

A potion of 10 crystal cores, 70% profit? Could it really be saline solution?

What exactly is the council playing at? Could it be that they're out of money and want to make a quick buck?

Other than that, she couldn't come up with any reasonable explanation.

"I agree. What? Are you surprised? But agreeing is agreeing, but the council has a request," Liu Feiying added.

"Request? Tell me," Gu Qingyi said.

"When selling the potion, our staff must be present and must administer the injection in person. After the injection is completed, we need to回收 the syringe," Liu Feiying said.

"Is that necessary? What? Are you going to reuse the syringes?" Gu Qingyi looked at him with disgust.
