Chapter 1520: Acting crazy and foolish, shirking responsibility
The empty hall was still silent, giving people a sense of solemnity. The eleven chairs lined up above and the many Heavenly Ranking masters sitting on them brought an invisible pressure that was hard to describe.
There was also a terrifying aura like the abyss and the sea, which permeated the entire hall at all times, and even made the surrounding space slightly solidified.
The Heavenly Ranking masters gathered together. This scene was quite explosive in the entire Jiuzhou Continent. It was estimated that no one could remain calm.
Seeing this scene, Jin Mantang, who had just entered, couldn't help but twitch his face. He hurriedly forced himself to calm down and walked forward quickly, bowing to the surroundings, and trying to squeeze out a smile on his face:
"Haha~! Are all the Taoist brothers here? I, Jin Mantang, am here to pay my respects. I wish all the Taoist brothers great progress in cultivation and eternal happiness. Don't forget to help me when you ascend to heaven in the future...!"
Although Xiao Pingsheng on the side was fearless, he was also shocked by the scene, so he also stepped forward to pay his respects politely, and his words were full of flattery:
"Xiao greets Fairy Yaoguang and all the Taoist brothers! I left in a hurry just now and forgot to prepare. I will definitely give you a generous gift later. It's just a small gift, not a respect. I hope you don't refuse it~!"
For a moment, the two of them were very humble, and their business nature was also exposed.
As the saying goes, don't hit a smiling person.
Faced with such compliments from the two business giants, the powerful men on the Tianbang present were also quite pleased. They immediately bowed their hands in return, and even the Fairy Yaoguang was no exception, which was considered to give enough face to the two families.
However, during this process, when the two business giants noticed Qin Tian, their faces all became stiff.
Looking at the black-robed young man sitting on the upper chair with many Tianbang masters on an equal footing, Jin Mantang's eyes suddenly became round, full of disbelief, and his brain almost stagnated!
Xiao Pingsheng on the side was not much better, and he was also stunned in place, with a face full of deep shock and horror!
Originally, in the eyes of the two, the reason why Qin Tian was invited by the Immortal Sect to enter the hall was only because of the prosperity of the Taoist sect.
But now it seems that the facts are obviously not that simple!
After all, many Tianbang masters, including the Yaoguang Fairy, did not show any impatience on their faces. Instead, they looked as if it was their due. How could this not shock people?
What does it mean to be on par with Tianbang masters?
Just ask? Even if the Dao Sect is powerful, the other five top immortal sects are not vegetarians. If they want to do this, they must get the approval of all Tianbang masters and immortal sects, otherwise they will never let this happen.
In other words, in the short time just now, a thrilling game must have taken place in the hall, but the final result is clear at a glance.
Qin Tian not only passed the test, but also won the respect of all the masters and successfully entered the peak of power in the Jiuzhou Continent!
After realizing this, the leaders of the two chambers of commerce were shocked, and their eyes almost popped out!
After the mountains and rivers were so dense that there seemed to be no way out, there was another village after the dark clouds.
Today's disaster finally saw hope!
The originally panic-stricken Fatty Jin's heart was instantly swept away, and the excitement in his eyes could not be concealed.
So he hurriedly bowed politely and sighed with emotion:
"Qin Xiaoyou is indeed a hidden talent, and I really admire him!"
After Xiao Pingsheng reacted, his face was a little stiff and twitching, and he could only lower his posture and take the initiative to bow. He felt really aggrieved.
Seeing this scene, Qin Tian just bowed indifferently and gave Fatty Jin a reassuring look, and then said nothing more.
It was just looking at the senior giants who were unattainable in the past, but now they were cautious and humble in front of him. That feeling was so strange.
After everyone exchanged politeness, the atmosphere in the field became slightly relaxed, but the leaders of the two chambers of commerce could only stand and were not even qualified to sit down.
After all, there were only eleven chairs in the hall, which were a symbol of status and position, and only the strong men on the Tianbang had this honor!
From this point, it can be seen that the two chambers of commerce and chaebols have status in the eyes of the six top immortal gates, but it is not much!
And the Fairy Yaoguang, who was at the top, took the lead at this moment and said:
"Since everyone is here, let's get straight to the point! This war involves the survival of the human race, and there must be no slackness. According to the instructions of our ancestor, the major chambers of commerce in Jiuzhou must work together to provide resource support for the war and ensure the trading order of the major markets. There must be no malicious price increases. What do the two family heads think?"
Hearing this, the two business leaders did not hesitate at all, and hurriedly bowed their hands to express their agreement.
The fat man Jin was even more righteous:
"Don't worry, Fairy Yaoguang. Although I am a businessman, I also know what national justice is. This war between the two races is related to the survival of the human race. My old Jin family has an obligation to do so. Even if my children cannot fight on the battlefield, we must provide financial support! In short, just tell me how much you want, and my old Jin family will sell everything we have to get it for you!"
The implication is that my old Jin family can give me spirit stones, but after giving me spirit stones, my children will not go to the battlefield. This amount of spirit stones is a life-saving money!
Xiao Pingsheng on the side was unwilling to lag behind, and quickly said in a high-sounding manner:
"Why do you say that, Fairy Yaoguang? At this time when the human race is in danger, how can we cultivators stand by and watch? Even without the order of the Immortal Sect, my old Xiao family is preparing to support Yuncheng! But our family has gradually declined in recent years, and most of the disciples in the family are weak. I am afraid that they will die on the battlefield, so I won't come out to embarrass myself!
Besides, my Xiao family is not as financially strong as some of the first chambers of commerce. We can only rely on selling our property and foundation to barely collect 100 million spirit stones to show our gratitude! I hope you Taoist brothers will forgive me!"
In short, my old Xiao family cares about the people of the world very much, but unfortunately our strength and financial resources are very limited. If we give 100 million spirit stones, we will not go to the battlefield. You can ask the old Jin family for the rest!
"Old ghost Xiao! You are so shameless. Your old Xiao family has no money. Can my old Jin family be much better...?"
Sure enough, when these words came out, Fatty Jin was so angry that his face turned red, and he wanted to strangle this old thing on the spot!
Seeing the two of them acting crazy and shirking each other, as if they were ready to fight to the death, many old foxes present frowned, obviously doubting the "sincerity" of the two chambers of commerce.
Even Fairy Yaoguang couldn't help rolling her eyes, and said coldly with some sneer:
"Hmph! The two heads of the family are too modest, right? Do you know how many spirit stones are burned every day for a city defense formation? How long can a mere 100 million sustain? This expense has been jointly borne by the six major immortal gates, and it has been supported for nearly three months. Now it's your chamber of commerce's turn to contribute! If you dare to shirk again, don't blame me for not giving you face!"
As the voice fell, a terrible pressure suddenly enveloped the whole scene, directly forcing the two heads of the family to retreat several steps, and the warning meaning was obvious.
