Chapter Fourteen: No Farewell
le of prodigies from the outer regions were being reenacted, the two most impressive prodigies from the previous rounds met again ahead of schedule!Whether people are expectant, discontent, or joyful....Jiang Wang's silence slightly surprised Cheng Shiyi.
In her opinion, a young hero like Jiang Wang, newly ennobled, should not be so humble and reclusive even towards someone as accomplished as Chong Xuan.
The vice president of the prestigious Treasure Pavilion Merchant Association was speaking to him. No matter what he felt, he shouldn't just ignore him.
This manner of conduct is more like that of a simple guard or attendant.
>
This actually indicates an attitude that will never change.
Thought flashed through his mind, but there was no awkwardness on his face.
She just smiled and looked at Xuan Sheng with her eyes, saying: "As the master who handles all affairs, it's even more crucial for him to be present during this time when our merchant association is expanding its business. Luckily, I, as the deputy head, am free now, otherwise, I wouldn't dare neglect you."
This woman's mind is as small as the point of a needle.
Since both Chong Xuan Sheng and Jiang Wang weren't being very nice, she wasn't about to give them any pleasantries either.
Between the lines, it all boils down to three words: "You're not worthy."
The head of the JuBao Merchant Association, whose surname was Su and given name She, was undoubtedly a prominent figure in Linzi City.
In the past, Chongxuan once had the fortune of meeting this person, and it was Chongxuan Chu Liang who brought him there.
Though we may now have plans for conquering the land and feats of bravery in battle...it doesn't necessarily mean success!
“Opening up a field of sunshine" These four words are even more painful.

How did the JuBao Merchant Association win over the Four Seas Commercial Alliance in Yangdi
>
It's not because of his superior strength that he wins!
But in a turn of events, she abandoned him and began flirting with Chong Xuan.
Zhong Xuan smiled, squinting his eyes: "You want to see Su Hui, because there are some things that only he can understand!"
"Master Chongxuan, you jest," laughed Cheng Shiyi. "Isn't everyone blessed with a pair of ears"
Since Su Sha didn't appear, this trip lost half its meaning.
Zhong Xuan certainly wouldn't just leave in a huff like that, so he asked, "Can you represent the Su Xie Guild Master"
Cheng Shiyi still smiled, calmly saying: "Although I have the word 'deputy,' I am also in charge."
Zhong Xuan nodded slightly, then turned to ask Jiang Wang, "Brother, which gate did we enter when we came to Linzi this time"
Jiang Wanglang said loudly, "All I see is the character 'xin'!"
Cheng Eleven's smile didn't change: "Ximen is indeed close!"
The Xinzi Gate is indeed not far from the Jubao Chamber of Commerce.
This is a test.
Zhong Xuan sarcastically alluded to her breach of trust and promise, while she retorted that Zhong Xuan was out of line, consumed by anxiety, and unwilling to concede even an inch.
"It is said that in business, first come, first served."
Zhong Xuan said in a cold voice: "How did you let Zhong Xuan Zun in right after I just left the sect This gate is really too open."
Cheng Shili poured the tea and gently lifted the lid. "My lord also knows that the Four Seas Merchant Alliance is in business. Since we are doing business, there's no reason to shut our doors to guests."
“Let the Lord of the Cheng know about this.” Chong Xuan seemed not to understand Zhu Ke’s hint and simply said, “The Four Seas Merchant Alliance has such a vast foundation and power, but because it lost its reputation, it ended up being ostracized by everyone in the world!”
"In business, harmony leads to prosperity. I wouldn't be comfortable commenting on the successes and failures of others! However, there are valuable lessons to be learned from recent events. But speaking of which..."
Speaking of which, Cheng Shiyi yawned openly without any pretense of disinterest: “What do you mean by breaking trust Where is it appropriate to say that We are not doing business with someone else. Young Master Sheng and Young Master Zun are practically family, aren't they”

This is infuriating.
Even Jiang Wang, who was standing nearby, got angry.
>
Zhen Xuan laughed heartily, “Wonderful! Only today do I realize what it means to ‘talk business when doing business’!”
Cheng, the deputy head of the meeting, lazily said: "Young master, you are flattering me."
Zheng Xuan Sheng rose to his feet, a smile suddenly vanishing from his face. He pointed his halberd at Cheng Shi Yi and declared, “Let you remember this, the Ju Bao Merchant Association will be destroyed by short-sighted women like you!”
"Out of respect for the master of Chongxuan, I'll call you young master!" Cheng Shiyi remained seated but his eyes turned cold. "Although I am just an ordinary man with no power or influence, I still have to advise you...be more careful with your words!"
The atmosphere froze, leaving no room for further negotiation. Or perhaps this was precisely the outcome Cheng Shiyi desired.
Let me know if you have any other text you'd like translated!
Although the Chong Xuan family is powerful, the Zhu Bao Merchant Guild is not weak either. Besides, with Chong Xuan Zun present, Chong Xuan Sheng's victory does not represent the Chong Xuan family at all.
One of the reasons why the Treasure Pavilion Association chose Xuan Zun over Xuan Sheng is that.
Zhong Xuan Sheng relied on his family's power, and with his uncle Zhong Xuan Chu Liang led the Battle of Mie Yang. After the war victory, the family naturally had the right to enjoy the fruits of victory.
After the war, distribution of spoils and exchange of interests, as long as it benefited the family, Chong Xuan had no reason to refuse, nor the power to refuse.
His core interests, however, were actually in the Rizhao County. Because the other two counties had been parceled out.
Even before the war, the business in Yangdi was assigned to Chongxuan Sheng. But back then, it wasn't a very lucrative venture and wasn't worth much attention.
Now that the First World War has ended in favor of Yang, as the leader of the war effort, the business opportunities for the Chongxuan family in Yangdi have reached their peak potential—this is precisely why Chongxuan took the second step to target the Jubao Merchant Guild. He wants to use the Jubao Merchant Guild, which provides financial support to the Qi army, as a lever to pry into the core interests of Chongxuan Sheng. This does not rely on the internal power of the Chongxuan family and avoids any internal strife or consumption. It is simply a straightforward competition between Chongxuan and Chongxuan Sheng.
This is also why Chongxuan was so anxious and eager to return to Linzi to handle the situation. After all, there's a fire in the backyard, and he has to put it out. This is far more serious than losing the position of the magistrate of Rizhao County!
At this moment, on the grounds of the Treasure Pavilion Merchant Association, things are escalating. The only ones who will suffer losses are our own people. But showing weakness is absolutely not an option. Now, more than ever, Chong Xuan Sheng must appear strong and cannot let anyone see his vulnerability.
Thinking about this, Jiang Wang stood up, put his arm around Chong Xuan's shoulder, and said to Cheng Shiyi: "Coming to 'Ju Bao Pen' today really lives up to its reputation. It has truly opened my eyes!"
Let me know if you have any other text you'd like translated!
“Your great kindness, Mr. Jiang, fills me with deep emotion! Within two years, I will knock on your door again, to reciprocate your hospitality today!”

That's called threatening someone.
At the same time, pulling the front line far away so that conflict does not arise in front of us.
The Treasure Guild still had a vice-chairman come out to personally greet them. This shows that although they leaned towards Chongxuan Zun, they didn't want to completely tear their face with Chongxuan Sheng. After all, from the Heavenly Mansion Secret Realm to the annihilation of Yang Kingdom, Chongxuan Sheng had step by step proven his potential and ability.
Only Cheng Shiyi didn't know how much benefit she had received from Chong Xuan, and she refused to give any. Of course, her refusal was just a trivial matter at the end. The general situation was already like this.
"I heard that the young hero from Qingyang Town, Yang Nan, won the Tianfu Secret Realm. But if he wants to make a fuss at Ju Bao Merchant Association, his divine power might not be enough.” Cheng Shiyi looked at Jiang Wang and smiled: "Our guild master sees you as a good person and gives you ten more years. Perhaps you can build the Saint Building then, and we'll see what happens by then"
This woman is really sharp-tongued. It's hard to get the upper hand against her in a verbal duel. While she may not be as eloquent as Xuan Sheng, she certainly isn't inferior in terms of wit. She just doesn't bother engaging in harsh insults.
Anyway, Jiang Wang didn't bother to argue. Hearing this, he just said: "Then I'll leave you to wait here. The inner court is sufficient!"
>
With that, he pulled out the Chongxuan sword.
Zhong Xuan Sheng also coldly glanced at her, and then left with Jiang Wang Yang.
Behind him, Cheng Shiyi only said: "Farewell!"
