Chapter 446 Cooperation

Nanyu, Nanya Chamber of Commerce Headquarters, Nanya Mountain.

"What do you think of the news coming back from Qingshan State in the Eastern Region?" the great elder sitting at the top asked.

Since the Nanya Chamber of Commerce is a conglomeration of merchants, it does not have strong cohesion like a sect or family. Therefore, there is no nominal leader. Instead, the twelve Nascent Soul elders jointly take charge and decide the size of the chamber of commerce. thing.

Under the twelve serial elders, there are many elders and deacons, and then there are the chief shopkeepers and shopkeepers, and above them, there are only the supreme elders in the realm of gods.

The Supreme Elder cannot interfere with the business operations of the Chamber of Commerce. He only collects offerings and solves some troubles for the Chamber of Commerce. This is also a deterrent and shows the strength of the Chamber of Commerce.

"Hundreds of thousands of spirit stones are not a lot for the Chamber of Commerce. It doesn't matter whether you agree or not. The important thing is the family behind it and the Nascent Soul monk who is only three hundred years old."

The ten elders who are also in charge of the Eastern Region Chamber of Commerce branch said slowly: "If I remember correctly, the news from the big shopkeeper in Qingshan Prefecture said that Fellow Daoist Li has a high possibility of becoming a fourth-level alchemist. Grandmaster."

Why did Li Zhirui give the big shopkeeper a few bottles of Yuan-Zeng Dan? Didn't he just want to use this method to show that he has a high level of alchemy?

Now it seems that the effect is pretty good.

Is a fourth-level alchemy master precious? Is it rare? The promise is for sure!

You know, the prerequisite for becoming a fourth-level alchemy master is that your cultivation level must reach the Yuanying realm, but among hundreds of thousands of Qi-training monks, it is not possible to give birth to a Yuanying!

Among the few Nascent Soul Lords, there are even fewer candidates with extremely strong alchemy talents.

Moreover, alchemy is not just a theory. It does not mean that Yuanying monks will definitely be able to refine fourth-level elixirs. It also requires strong practical experience and level, as well as a solid foundation!

But whether it is cultivation or alchemy, it is a very time-consuming and energy-consuming thing. There are countless geniuses who want to do both, but they often either give up on one, or waste their time and die with regrets.

Even in the huge Nanya Chamber of Commerce, the number of fourth-level alchemy masters does not exceed two palms.

Therefore, several elders changed their original minds after hearing that Li Zhirui might become a fourth-level alchemy master.

However, there are also people who object, and the reason is very simple. If the investment of the Chamber of Commerce fails, it will be a huge sum of spiritual stones.

"What the Sixth Elder said is absolutely true, but..." The Tenth Elder smiled slightly and said slowly: "According to the news coming back from Qingshan Prefecture, this fellow Daoist Li is not only very qualified in cultivation, but also very talented in alchemy!"

"Every time he breaks through a big realm, he only needs a hundred or even dozens of materials to refine a new level of elixir!"

"And his alchemy method is still the more difficult water method!"

"hiss--"

The elders present couldn't help but take a deep breath.

The Sixth Elder, who was not dealing with the Tenth Elder, had a flash of anger in his eyes, but he was wise enough not to say anything else.

Because he knew that this kind of information, which could be easily verified to be true or false, would not be announced on such an important occasion if the other party did not confirm it again and again.

The tenth elder caught a glimpse of the sixth elder's expression, and a satisfied smile appeared on his lips. It was not in vain for him to bring the matter to the meeting.

In fact, if you want to say how important this matter is, it is not important. The ten elders can decide it alone. After all, the Chamber of Commerce in the Eastern Region is within his management scope.

Mainly because he wanted to trick the Sixth Elder and make him a little embarrassed.

"Now, everyone, let's vote by a show of hands." The main reason why the Great Elder is the head of the twelve elders is that he is the host of the elders' meeting.

In addition, if the first vote is tied, he will make the final decision.

As a result, there was no need for a majority. The elders who agreed to cooperate with the Li family privately accounted for the vast majority and gained an overwhelming advantage.

On the same day, the big shopkeeper of Qingshan Prefecture received a reply from the headquarters.

"As expected, the headquarters agreed." After listening to the instructions from the headquarters, the big shopkeeper said without any surprise.

While it was still early, the big shopkeeper put on a little disguise and went to the Li family's shop in Qingshan Prefecture and handed over a special jade slip made by the Li family. The content inside was to invite Li Zhirui to come tomorrow to discuss cooperation matters.

Of course, this kind of special jade slip is encrypted and requires specific techniques to unlock it. It can maintain confidentiality to the greatest extent and avoid the leakage of information.

In the evening of that day, Li Zhirui received a letter from the big shopkeeper, and then discussed with Li Shiqing and Li Dayuan the bottom line that the Li family could give.

There is not much content. The new addition is to request the Nanya Chamber of Commerce not to sell the fourth-level elixir in the East Region, because the water-refined elixir is too obvious, and you can tell at a glance that it was refined by Li Zhirui.

Moreover, there is no second water method alchemy master in the nearby states.

"Senior, you are here!" The shopkeeper said hello respectfully.

Li Zhirui nodded with a smile and asked, "I wonder what your Chamber of Commerce's decision is?"

The big shopkeeper explained: "The headquarters agreed to a secret deal with your family and other conditions, and I hope seniors and your family can understand the rules of the Chamber of Commerce."

"Of course!" Li Zhirui nodded happily.

Because of the basis of previous cooperation, this time the discussion was very fast, and soon the two parties reached a consensus and signed a brand new contract.

The subject of the contract is not Li Zhirui or other monks, but the two major forces, the Nanya Chamber of Commerce and the Li family.

"Senior, the elixir provided by the Chamber of Commerce for you to practice has been stored in the warehouse. I will take out the elixir right now." After the contract was signed, the shopkeeper suddenly became much more relaxed.

If Li Zhirui really becomes a fourth-level alchemy master, then he might be able to go one step further and work at the headquarters.

Providing practice elixirs is also a requirement of the Li family. Correspondingly, after Li Zhirui refines the Chiyang Pill, he needs to repay three treasure pills to the Nanya Chamber of Commerce for each piece of material.

"Okay!" Li Zhirui returned to Ten Thousand Immortals Island with fifty elixirs and told Li Shiqing the good news.

"You will stay in the family and refine the elixir well. You don't have to worry about anything else!" Li Shiqing warned.

Li Zhirui was noncommittal and had no objection. He just asked: "Over at Xuanfa Pavilion, who are you going to send to negotiate?"

After hearing this, Li Shiqing thought for a moment and said, "The best candidates are clan members who don't know the secrets of the family and the Nanya Chamber of Commerce."

Otherwise, it is very likely that he will be exposed in front of Xuanfa Pavilion.

"Let Cheng Hao, who just came back a few days ago, contact Xuanfa Pavilion. As for the conditions, except for a 10% profit, the rest will be the same as those of the Nanya Chamber of Commerce."

Li Zhirui thought about it and nodded. Li Chenghao was indeed a very good candidate.
