Chapter 1491: Lin Yuan’s Prediction
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
The Listening Heron Chamber of Commerce was completely different from what it used to be.
It could not even compare to a rising faction a few months ago.
Eventually, it entered the luxury resources business and managed to break into the rising faction’s market.
But a few months ago, the Listening Heron Chamber of Commerce took over all of the Zheng family’s resources which happened to overlap with the Listening Heron Chamber of Commerce’s role.
Now, the Listening Heron Chamber of Commerce was one of the top veteran factions.
Although the Listening Heron Chamber of Commerce had not changed its address in the Royal Capital and still remained in the small white house, it was not eligible to occupy a 10,000-square-meter business territory.
The Royal Capital’s building department had already rushed Listen many times.
Although Listen could do anything with his connection to Lin Yuan, he still preferred to do things by the book because Lin Yuan was the same.
Listen only rushed back to the Return from Faraway Mansion when it was time for dinner.
With Listen and Endless Summer back in the mansion, the Return from Faraway Mansion was bustling with life.
Lin Yuan called Master Hong Shen, Zhang Xiaobai, Lu Pinru, Tan Ran, and Xin Ying over to have dinner in the mansion.
After dinner, Listen went over to Lin Yuan and said softly, “Young Master, I am done with all the business in Indigo Azure City.”
Lin Yuan nodded. He was not going to ask Listen how he planned to handle the Zheng family.
Nonetheless, Listen said, “The Zheng family’s main role is also luxury resources, and they have hired almost 4,000 Spirit Craftsmen over the years. Four of them are Class 4 Spirit Craftsmen, over 200 are Class 3 Spirit Craftsmen, and most of the remaining ones are Class 2 Creation Masters. They have six times the number of Spirit Craftsmen as the Heavenly Craft Pavilion.
“After the Zheng family fell, Zheng Kaiyan immediately took control of the Spirit Craftsmen and prevented them from leaving the Zheng family.
“When I went over to take over control of the Spirit Craftsmen, most of them had a deep resentment toward Sky City because we won them from a blood pact ultimate fight. Hence, I don’t think we’ll be able to make full use of them. They can only put the finishing touches on luxury goods.
“With the added labor of these Spirit Craftsmen, the Listening Heron Chamber of Commerce will be able to trade on a whole other scale. The seven Class 4 Spirit Craftsmen and your rare spiritual resources will enable our auctions to gain an even better reputation.”
Lin Yuan did not express an opinion.
Zheng Kaiyan had already told Lin Yuan about the Spirit Craftsmen.
Lin Yuan was not interested in these Spirit Craftsmen despite lacking Spirit Craftsmen because they would never be loyal to Sky City.
Now that Listen had taken over control of the Spirit Craftsmen and given them suitable jobs, they were fulfilling their function.
Listen changed the topic and said softly, “Young Master, Zheng Kaiyan is very capable. After obtaining the Zheng family’s luxury goods, I left him with Indigo Azure City’s shallow sea resources so he could develop them. The Indigo Azure City’s shallow sea resources are a large treasure chest. How far it can be developed is up to Zheng Kaiyan’s abilities.”
From what Listen said, Lin Yuan could tell that he had already made his peace with his grudge against the Zheng family.
Lin Yuan did not comment on what Listen said.
The Zheng family, which Zheng Kaiyan led, was the most profitable source of income that Sky City had.
Anything that Zheng Kaiyan did would earn money for Sky City.
It was a good idea for Zheng Kaiyan to develop Indigo Azure City’s shallow sea resources. If he was capable enough to do a good job, Lin Yuan did not mind opening up another road for Zheng Kaiyan by allowing him to interact with Gao Feng and helping Gao Feng nurture aquatic feys in the shallow seas.
Although Lin Yuan had not left the mansion in the past few days or gone to the abyssal world to train, he was still very interested in the situation there.
Lin Yuan asked, “Listen, what do you think the biggest change in the federation since the opening of the abyssal world is?”
Listen was slightly stunned and thought for a while before replying, “Young Master, I have been paying attention to the situation in the abyssal world since I heard about the opening of the Class 6 abyss dimensional rift.
“My understanding is that the price of the metal-type spiritual ingredients that can be used to create the cities in the abyssal world has inflated to four times their usual price while ice-type feys that can make their environment colder are now 15 times more expensive. The plant-type feys that are resistant to heat have become at least three times more expensive as well.
“However, luxury goods are experiencing the biggest change in price. Their price has already multiplied, but I think that this is only the beginning. I predict that the price of luxury goods will reach up to four times their previous price.”
Listen’s voice became excited when he mentioned the part about the increase in the price of luxury goods.
The Listening Heron Chamber of Commerce was currently standing at the precipice of a changing generation.
Soon, Listen would be confident enough to take the Listening Heron Chamber of Commerce to the level of top factions.
Lin Yuan was amazed by Listen’s response.
The price of metal-type spiritual ingredients and ice-type feys had gone up because they were badly needed in the construction of the cities in the abyssal world.
As a result, most adventuring crews would choose to enter subterranean dimensional rifts because they would be able to obtain metal-type spiritual ingredients and sell them to gain the biggest profit.
Low-class Creation Masters would invest most of their time and energy into nurturing ice-type feys. This would cause Creation Master resources for other types of feys to become scarcer and the price of feys to climb.
Spiritual ingredients came from feys. When the price of feys increased, so would the price of spiritual ingredients.
There would be countless people who would be leading harder lives due to this change.
Cultivated Garden was the Radiance Federation’s store of food and resources.
In the event of a change of times, many opportunists would try to stock up on metal-type spiritual ingredients and ice-type feys to sell them at the peak of their value.
However, Lin Yuan believed that Tian Feng would step in quickly to open up Cultivated Garden and inject resources back into the market so that the price would fall back to their original levels.
