Chapter 228 Support on Salt and Sugar
Chapter 228 Support on Salt and Sugar
Before leaving, Liu Yuntian suddenly turned around, with a scornful smile on his face.
There was a hint of cunning in his eyes.
He fixed his eyes on Chen Yang and said slowly, "Do you know why the latecomer will be the winner?"
Chen Yang turned his head in surprise, his eyes full of confusion and helplessness. He looked at Liu Yuntian blankly, not knowing how to respond for a moment.
"Because the former is... incompetent."
Liu Yuntian's voice was deep and powerful, like a sharp sword piercing his heart.
"Incompetent people...are afraid of losing. Your fear makes you lose the right to bargain with Wuji."
His words hit Chen Yang's cognition like a heavy hammer, leaving him unable to refute.
After saying this, Liu Yuntian raised his head and laughed, his laughter was full of pride and sarcasm.
Then, he turned and left without hesitation, leaving Chen Yang and the others standing there in a daze.
At this time, the room became quiet. The four people sat helplessly on the chairs. They didn't even have the courage to look at Liu Yuntian's departing back.
Liu Yuntian was right, they were defeated miserably in this battle.
They lack the courage to fight to the death like Liu Yuntian and are bound by fear.
They are afraid of losing their power, being surpassed by newcomers and driven off the stage.
This game tests not only wisdom and strategy, but also strong courage and determination.
A true king does not rely on a scepter or a token, but on himself!
You stand there, you are the king!
If one relies solely on power and external things to control his throne, he will fall sooner or later.
Even if he falls, the king will stand up again, but the fake king is always afraid of falling.
Because the fake king who fell down...can't stand up.

Liu Yuntian and Ruyi returned to their room.
Ruyi rolled her eyes and said, "You are such a thief. Making me act like that makes me seem ignorant of the current situation."
There was a smile in Liu Yuntian's eyes. He understood that Ruyi was dissatisfied with her playing the villain before.
That is to complain about Zuo Lan's aggressive bidding for treasures.
If Zuo Lan is deliberately exposed, the four people will think that there is something fishy and will not dare to act rashly.
Only by letting Ruyi, the victim, reveal the truth, will they truly believe that it was Liu Yuntian who was behind it.
Give them the feeling that Liu Yuntian really wants it and has made up his mind to fight for it.
Coupled with Liu Yuntian's crazy and ruffian personality of doing things without considering the consequences, they would think that Liu Yuntian wanted to stand with the peasants to overthrow them.
This will cause them to panic and try to stop and fight for it at all costs.
This is also a weakness of human nature.
You may not want something but when someone else tries to take it, you will start to want it. In the process of fighting for it, you may lose your rationality and make wrong decisions.
"What does it matter? I sold the technique for twice the estimated value, and I didn't let it fall into the hands of the people below."
"I have not broken my promise and will fulfill it in full accordance with the agreement between us."
Ruyi sighed in confusion, "But I didn't expect that your target was them..."
"Although I gained a lot this time, Wuji didn't suffer any loss!"
She looked at Liu Yuntian a little embarrassedly, "I know you have done a good job... but if you don't strike at Wuji's foundation, this money won't do much good!"
"Wuji can still rely on his profound foundation to crush me!"
Ruyi's worries were not groundless. She thought she could cheat Wuji out of some money by using the skills, just as Liu Yuntian had said before.
As one side gained strength while the other side lost strength, Wuji was stretched to the limit, and then they were able to recover a lot of blood.
But she didn't know that what Liu Yuntian had said before was just a cover.
After uttering harsh words to Wuji, the butcher knife turned towards the peacemaker.
They have indeed grown, but Wuji has not shrunk!
"Peace of mind..."
Liu Yuntian sat on the chair with his hands crossed, and smiled, "I will help you to expand this advantage, but I don't know if Fairy Ruyi is interested in it."
Ruyi looked at Liu Yuntian suspiciously, with a vigilant look in her eyes, "How can you help me?"
Liu Yuntian looked at Ruyi's distrustful expression and laughed, "It seems that our relationship...is still not solid enough!"
As he spoke, he straightened up and looked sideways at Ruyi, "What's the point of talking about playing a villain? You've always been on guard against me, right?"
"Although it was just acting... you actually had some complaints about what Zuo Lan did, but you just didn't say it openly, right?"
Ruyi turned her head away awkwardly, picked up the teacup and took two sips, "Put away your speculations, do you think you understand others very well?"
Lies don't hurt, truth is the knife.
Liu Yuntian chuckled and straightened his body again, "Stop your assembly line first."
As soon as these words came out, Ruyi slammed the teacup onto the table with a bang, "What do you mean? Do you want me to give up salt and sugar too?"
After saying that, Ruyi paused for a moment and looked at Liu Yuntian warily, "Do you want to monopolize the salt and sugar business?"
"You misunderstood." Liu Yuntian stretched out a hand to interrupt the other party's guess.
"I don't regard it as my lifeblood like you do."
"It's obvious that building the assembly line in a mortal city and letting mortals do the work for you can reduce a lot of costs."
"But you refused, you were suspicious, you were cautious..."
"This is also the reason why Lin Ying can defeat you in the economic war."
Ruyi's eyebrows were raised, "What do you want to say?"
"I'm here to sell you salt and sugar."
Ruyi was stunned, narrowed her eyes, and asked tentatively, "How much?"
At this time, Liu Yuntian smiled and stretched out a finger, "One top-grade spirit stone is one pound~"
Seeing that the other party was somewhat tempted, he immediately added, "If Lin Ying continues to lower the price, I can still reduce it by half."
Ruyi's whole body was shaken, and her hands on the table were trembling slightly.
"Are you... sure? This doesn't make any money, how could you be so kind?" She looked at Liu Yuntian in disbelief.
"I never intended to use salt and sugar to gain a foothold in Zhongzhou. Salt and sugar are what I use to win over mortals..."
"I even lose money when I sell it to mortals!"
"I'll sell you a top-grade spirit stone, and I'll make some money."
Ruyi nodded thoughtfully, it was indeed the case.
When the price of salt and sugar was at its highest in Zhongzhou, it was three top-grade spirit stones per pound.
Now Lin Ying was competing with her, and the price had been raised to a top-grade spirit stone.
Since the salt and sugar she produced were produced within the sect, the total cost reached five high-quality spirit stones per pound.
As the business war is about to enter the final decisive battle, prices will definitely drop significantly.
At that time, no matter how much money you have, it will not be enough to compensate.
But if you can really buy it from Liu Yuntian, it’s only one-fifth of the usual cost.
In this way, not only will you not lose money, you may even make money!
