Crown Prince of the Empire, I quit!

Chapter 794: Raising the Price, the Nature of Merchants

After the matter was settled, Chu Ying brought Li Hu and a group of guards.

Once again set out on the road to the Shenmu Kingdom.

This time their mission is not only to deliver the goods, but also to secretly contact other forces in the Shenmu Kingdom.

Create trouble for Hua Yunhong.

This was Li Hu's first time doing business.

He seemed extremely excited along the way and kept asking questions.

"Boss Chu, how much do you think we can gain this time? Is there a lot of gold in the Shenmu Kingdom?"

Chu Ying has met many people who have just started doing business, and they all found it very novel at first.

But after running for a few days, I was too tired to chat.

Although these questions were very simple, he still answered patiently:

"There are benefits, but they're not as exaggerated as you think. Although the Shenmu Kingdom is rich, not everyone can get a piece of the pie. We must act carefully and not be used as a tool by others."

Li Hu scratched his head and chuckled.

"Boss Chu, what you said is true. We are not vegetarians. Whoever dares to plot against us will be punished!"

Chu Ying didn't say anything more, but he knew in his heart that the situation in Shenmu Kingdom was far more complicated than Li Hu thought.

The fight between Hua Yunhong and Fang Yuanjian is only superficial.

In fact, it is a battle between new and old technologies.

One of them wants to focus on new technological development, while the other wants to stick to old-fashioned mechanical techniques.

It would be abnormal if there was no commotion.

After spending several days, Chu Ying and Li Hu arrived at the border of Shenmu Kingdom for the second time. Fang Yuanjian had already sent people to wait for a long time.

This time they were received by a middle-aged man who claimed to be Fang Yuanjian's confidant, named Chen Ping.

When he saw him, Chu Ying was a little confused.

He had a very good relationship with Fang Cai, and Fang Cai had helped him fight many battles in the Western Regions before.

I thought Fang Yuanjian would come out to pick him up this time, but I didn't expect that Fang Yuanjian had changed someone.

The emergence of this situation can actually be seen from the side that Fang Yuanjian has fewer and fewer people available, and most of them have been sent out to participate in the war.

"Boss Chu, the Seventh Prince is already waiting for you in the city."

Chen Ping came forward with a smile and a respectful tone.

"The Seventh Prince takes this matter very seriously and specifically asked me to come pick you up."

Chu Ying nodded, but he became more alert in his heart.

Fang Yuanjian was so enthusiastic that he obviously couldn't wait to ask them to take out the goods.

Thinking of this, Chu Ying asked calmly:

"General Chen, how is the Seventh Prince doing lately?"

Chen Ping sighed and lowered his voice:

"Not good. The imperial court's offensive is fierce, and the Seventh Prince has lost a lot of territory recently. However, with your goods, we can stabilize our position."

Under Qin Ming's arrangement, Elder Xuanfeng was very cautious in building the trade route.

The first time Chu Ying was arranged to come here was just to establish a trade route for the Datong sect.

After testing and confirming that this trade route was feasible, most of the goods were finally delivered.

For Fang Yuanjian, who was at the end of his rope, this was like a long-awaited downpour.

Faced with the other party's somewhat anxious attitude.

Chu Ying smiled slightly mysteriously and didn't respond.

Before coming here, Elder Xuanfeng had warned him not to reveal his attitude towards any party in the Shenmu Kingdom.

Don't just say you support one side.

Business is business.

Chu Ying naturally understood what Elder Xuanfeng meant by his instructions to him.

The Datong Sect has not yet defeated the Western Regions coalition forces. At this time, more energy should be focused on internal affairs rather than interfering in external affairs.

That would only bring trouble upon themselves, and the court of Shenmu Kingdom might hold a grudge against them from then on.

Maybe we will be attacked from both sides.

Fang Yuanjian urgently needs this batch of goods to win people's hearts, but Chu Ying does not intend to hand it over easily.

After all, the goods are in his hands, so the initiative is in his hands.

Not long after entering the city, they arrived at Fang Yuanjian's palace.

Fang Yuanjian prepared wine and food in the mansion and was waiting for them.

Seeing Chu Ying, Fang Yuanjian was in a good mood and immediately came forward with a smile on his face:

"Boss Chu, I've finally been waiting for you to come. This time, it's all thanks to you."

Chu Ying cupped his hands and said calmly:

"You are too polite, Seventh Prince. We each get what we need. However, I heard that Hua Yunhong has been making a lot of moves recently. Can you still hold on?"

Fang Yuanjian's face darkened and he sighed.

This sentence obviously hit his sore spot.

"To be honest, there are indeed some minor troubles, but it doesn't matter. Boss Chu, when do you think you can hand over this batch of goods to me?"

Chu Ying immediately waved his hand and said in a leisurely tone:

"Seventh Prince, I have brought the goods, but we must discuss the terms first."

Fang Yuan was stunned for a moment, then suppressed his anger and put on a smile.

"Boss Chu, what do you mean? Didn't we agree on this before?"

Chu Ying shook his head.

"Seventh Prince, we had agreed on this before, but the situation has changed. Hua Yunhong's offensive is so fierce, we have to talk again."

Although it was an extortion, Chu Ying acted very calmly.

Merchants value profit. If you don’t raise the price when helping someone in need, you may not have such an opportunity again in the future.

When doing business, profit is the most important thing.

Those who cannot save face will not make money.

Fang Yuanjian's expression changed and his tone became a little cold.

"Boss Chu, are you going to raise the price?"

Chu Ying still had a smile on his face:

"Seventh Prince, you can't say that. We are collaborating, and cooperation must be mutually beneficial. If you feel it's inappropriate, we can discuss it again."

Fang Yuanjian stared at Chu Ying for a few seconds, and the atmosphere at the scene seemed to freeze.

The guards standing around were all staring at them with eager eyes.

It was the first time that Li Hu had seen such a scene. He was so panicked that he didn't know what to do.

Chu Ying sat steadily at the table, picking up dishes with chopsticks and eating as if no one was around.

From beginning to end, his hands did not tremble at all.

He looked so calm not only because he came to discuss business with Fang Yuanjian as a timely helper.

It was also because Chu Ying knew that the Datong Sect was behind him.

This force has long since grown to a point where it cannot be ignored by any party.

If the other party dares to touch me, it would be a slap in the face of the Datong Sect.

After a long time, Fang Yuanjian suddenly laughed:

"Boss Chu, you are indeed a smart man. Okay, let's talk about it again."

In the following negotiations, Chu Ying firmly grasped the initiative.

Not only did Fang Yuanjian agree to the Datong Sect's exclusive trading rights in his territory.

We also secured a number of arms orders.

"Or you can do business."

After Li Hu and Chu Ying made various requests.

Although Fang Yuanjian was unhappy, he had no choice but to grit his teeth and agree.

After the deal was settled, Chu Ying took Li Hu and others and left Fang Yuanjian's mansion.

He made such great contributions just after becoming a Dharma protector.

Li Hu looked excited and said in a low voice:

"Boss Chu, your trick is brilliant! We're going to make a fortune this time!"

Chu Ying was not too excited, but rather had a serious expression.

The basis for all this cooperation is based on the condition that both parties can fulfill their rights and responsibilities.

After returning, the Datong Sect will start to increase production.

But in times of war, can they really ensure a worry-free supply?

He was very curious as to why Elder Xuanfeng would let him raise these issues, which were extremely stressful for them.

"Don't be too happy too soon. Fang Yuanjian is not a pushover. We have to be careful and not let him scheme against us."

Li Hu is a ruthless person as he was able to climb to the position of protector.

After hearing this, he nodded immediately, with a hint of ruthlessness on his face.

"If he dares to plot against us, we will make him pay for it!"
