Big Capitalist

Just as Stacie took a deep breath and shouted "One, two, three, connect!", a loud voice suddenly rang out: "Wait!"

This shout was like a bolt from the blue, instantly breaking the tense and exciting atmosphere in the live broadcast room.

Master Lincoln and Stacy were both stunned. They quickly turned around and saw a figure rushing towards them.

The camera in the live broadcast room seemed to be endowed with spirituality, and it quickly and cleverly focused on the man who suddenly appeared.

who is he? !

That’s right, it’s Leo Merlin, who holds many impressive titles, including Secretary of the Arcane City Committee, President of the Arcane Academy Student Union, President of the Merlin Chamber of Commerce, Honorary Elder of the Aize Federation, Senior Member of the Alchemist’s Guild, Core Member of the Magician’s Guild, High Priest of the Moon... and so on!

As soon as Merlin appeared on the stage, the live broadcast room exploded instantly as if a heavy bomb was thrown into it.

Comments flooded in like a tide:

"Oh my God, it's that man, it's Merlin!"

"It really is Merlin, the most influential person in the Aize Continent, bar none!"

"Wow, President Merlin showed up. Is this going to be something big?"

"He's the nemesis of the Ancient God Cult. With Lord Merlin's appearance, I feel like things are going to be different!"

"I didn't expect to see Guild Master Merlin in the livestream. What a surprise! Today's livestream was truly worth watching!"

The entire live broadcast room was in an uproar because of Merlin's appearance. Everyone was curious about what Merlin was going to do by suddenly interrupting the sale of Jianzhan.

Stacy's eyes lit up and she shouted in surprise, "President Merlin!"

Master Lincoln nodded slightly.

Merlin's eyes fell on the exquisite Jian ware, and then he said to Stacy and Master Lincoln with a serious expression, "This Jian ware is really too expensive."

Stacy looked puzzled and said quickly, "President Merlin, President Yuna has analyzed that this Jianzhan is absolutely worth one million. From the craftsmanship to the rarity, plus it is the first Jianzhan fired in the new era of the Aize Continent, the price is reasonable. Moreover, the ordinary Jianzhan antiques unearthed from the Oberon ruins can be auctioned for hundreds of thousands of gold coins. The quality of this Jianzhan is far superior to those, so one million gold coins is really not a lot."

Merlin shook his head slightly and said slowly, "We at the Merlin Chamber of Commerce can't see it that way. Admittedly, porcelain has always been used by the true aristocracy and upper class, and has always been precious. The current high price of porcelain on the market is largely due to the antiques from the Oberon ruins. These antiques have been honed over time and carry historical value, hence the high prices. However, our newly-fired Jianzhan porcelain from the Aize Continent cannot be priced at such a high price right from the start."

Master Lincoln was slightly annoyed and asked, "Don't you think my craftsmanship and such a perfect Jianzhan are not worth the price?"

Merlin quickly explained, "Of course not. Master Lincoln's craftsmanship is beyond doubt, and this Jianzhan is also perfect. However, good quality and low price have always been the standard of our Merlin Chamber of Commerce, even for precious porcelain. What's more, the so-called Jianzhan is the first Jianzhan fired in the new era of the Aize Continent, and this title is not entirely true. We can't use this to mislead the audience in the live broadcast room. Master Lincoln has the skills to fire porcelain. Although he has not shown it to the world before, the master himself has a collection, and the number is not small. These porcelains are all fired by Master Lincoln on a regular basis."

Merlin paused, looked at the camera firmly, and said: "All the family members in the live broadcast room, this Jianzhan fired by Master Lincoln is indeed perfect. Its glaze is pure, the texture is exquisite, and the craftsmanship is unique. It is not unreasonable for President Yuna to give a value of one million gold coins. Of course, I believe that the family members in the live broadcast room, you are of noble status and are all upper-class people in the Aize Continent. One million gold coins may not be a big deal for you, and you may even think that this Jianzhan is worth the money. But I, Merlin, chose to cooperate with Master Lincoln in the hope that the porcelain culture can be carried forward in the Aize Continent again, and at the same time, it is also to live up to the family members who have supported our Merlin Chamber of Commerce along the way. Therefore, I decided to lower the price of the newly fired porcelain!"

In the live broadcast room, the barrage was instantly filled with various touching and supportive words:

"President Merlin is so touching. He really treats us as family!"

"As expected of Merlin, they have a big vision. I support the Merlin Chamber of Commerce!"

"President Merlin is really thinking about us. That's awesome!"

"Following the Merlin Chamber of Commerce is indeed the right thing to do. I will always support Master Merlin!"

"I am moved by what President Merlin said. Such a chamber of commerce is trustworthy!"

"Lord Merlin is really different. He cares about us supporters. Love it!"

"President Merlin called us family. Will he cheat us? Definitely not!"

"President Merlin, I will always support you!"

Merlin looked at Master Lincoln sincerely and said earnestly, "Master Lincoln, porcelain is indeed extremely precious. Each piece embodies the hard work and wisdom of the craftsmen. But my goal is not only to make them treasures collected by a few people, but to let this long-lost craft shine the brightest again in the continent of Aize. Let porcelain no longer be just a high-end work of art, but can truly integrate into people's lives, so that more people can appreciate the beauty of porcelain and feel the charm of this ancient craft."

Master Lincoln listened to Merlin's words, his eyes gradually became dazed, as if he was lost in thought. After a moment, he couldn't help but sighed: "I am narrow-minded! Over the years, I have always treated each of the porcelains I fired as unique collection treasures, and carefully guarded them. But I overlooked the essence of porcelain. It is not only a collection, but also a tool with practical value. Merlin, you are right. You really deserve to make porcelain great again! The Merlin Chamber of Commerce that I chose was indeed correct!"

Master Lincoln's expression became firm as he spoke. He turned to the camera and said loudly, "My dear friends, after listening to Merlin's words, I have a sudden realization. I have decided to open my collection room and give all the porcelain in it to Merlin Chamber of Commerce for sale. Merlin has enlightened me that porcelain should not be treasured by me alone, but should be promoted throughout the entire Aize continent so that more people can own and appreciate it."

Merlin was deeply moved. He held Master Lincoln's hand tightly and said, "Thank you so much, Master Lincoln. Thank you for your trust in Merlin Chamber of Commerce."

Master Lincoln smiled and responded: "Merlin, you are the one who truly understands porcelain. You know what porcelain wants. They also want to be used by people who match their status and to show their value, rather than being put aside."
