As Su Yu sat on the main seat, he started to make arrangements for everyone.
The people who were called out quickly nodded.
Su Yu planned to bring Shen Wansan and the others, who were proficient in business, to the Great Zhou Dynasty to do business.
Otherwise, they would be useless on the island after they were recruited.
After all, Su Yu’s island was completely an area ruled only by one person. There was no need to trade and exchange goods. Even if Shen Wansan and the others had shocking intelligence, they could not produce money out of thin air.
Therefore, Su Yu planned to bring them along when he went to the Great Zhou Dynasty.
As for the problem of their identity, Su Yu believed that these people were not stupid enough that they weren’t able to handle such a simple matter.
Of course, Su Yu did not only bring the people who were proficient in business. He also brought some Bronze Rank guards and some strategists.
With the three complementing each other, he should be able to see some results.
Although it was impossible to become a large commerce association like the Myriad Commerce Association who was presided over by a King Rank, it should not be a problem to occupy a small city market with Su Yu’s support.
Among these people, Su Yu also gave Shen Wansan a Heavenly Mystery Array apparatus to transmit news.
After arranging the matters on the island, Su Yu brought Shen Wansan and the others directly to the Great Zhou Dynasty.
This time, the island was not far from the Great Zhou Dynasty. With the speed of the Ghost Ship, Su Yu arrived at the range of the Great Zhou Dynasty in a short while.
After leaving Shen Wansan and the others behind in a small city at the borders, Su Yu headed straight for the capital of the Great Zhou Dynasty.
After Su Yu left, Shen Wansan and the others also split up.
With their own methods, they successfully changed their appearances in just a short while. Some of them looked like commoners in the market, while others looked like high-ranking officials and nobles.
In any case, they disguised themselves pretty well.
As for money, Su Yu gave them all the general coins he had exchanged from the pawnshop last time. Then, he gave them a batch of low-level pills.
How Shen Wansan started his business with the given resources was not something Su Yu should consider.
“Third Master, what should we do next?” Someone beside Shen Wansan asked.
“Let’s find a place to sell some resources to exchange for some money. We’ll buy a house to settle down first.”
Upon hearing the guard’s question, Shen Wansan replied in a deep voice.
“Let’s go and find out where we can trade in this city.”
The two guards beside Shen Wansan followed him quietly.
Just as Shen Wansan and the others began to use money to open up a way and procured identities to trade wantonly, Su Yu’s figure appeared again at the entrance of the Great Zhou Dynasty’s Myriad Commerce Association.
The moment Su Yu appeared, Ji Ruoyan, who was on the fifth floor, received the news.
“This guy is elusive. Even with my spies, I didn’t notice when he entered the city.”
Upon receiving the message from the communication jade talisman, Ji Ruoyan could not help but frown slightly.
In the past few days, Ji Ruoyan had specially used her connections to investigate Su Yu’s identity.
However, to Ji Ruoyan’s surprise, Su Yu seemed like someone who had appeared out of thin air. There was no way to investigate him.
Furthermore, with the power in Ji Ruoyan’s hands, she could not even figure out when Su Yu had appeared in the capital of the Great Zhou Dynasty.
As for his background, there was no need to mention it. It was completely unknown.
Therefore, in order to find Su Yu, Ji Ruoyan had sent many spies to the capital. In the end, she still could not discover when he entered the city. It was ridiculous.
“Could it be that he has never left the capital of the Great Zhou? That’s impossible!”
Ji Ruoyan’s head hurt just from thinking about it. She could only instruct her subordinates to treat Su Yu hospitably. She would come down immediately.
At this moment, Su Yu had already entered the Myriad Commerce Association with ease and was about to go to the third floor.
However, before Su Yu could go up the stairs to the second floor, he saw Jia Qing rushing up the stairs to greet him.
“Sir, our president would like to see you.” After saying that, Jia Qing stretched out his hand and gestured to Su Yu.
“Why are you so happy?” Su Yu asked suspiciously as he looked at the smiling Jia Qing.
“Thanks to you, the president was so happy last time that promoted me by one level. I’m now a silver-level salesperson of the Myriad Commerce Association.”
Upon hearing Su Yu’s question, Jia Qing replied truthfully.
“I think you’ll get promoted again this time.” Upon hearing this, Su Yu casually said to Jia Qing.
“Sir, don’t joke with me. Let’s go!”
To be honest, Jia Qing’s heart was indeed beating faster because of Su Yu’s words.
However, she was not sure if the other party was joking, so she could only respond to Su Yu with a smile.
‘In this day and age, no one believes me when I tell the truth. I’ll lie next time and see what happens: Su Yu could not help but have a strange thought.
After shaking his head slightly and throwing out these strange thoughts, Su Yu followed Jia Qing to the third floor of the Myriad Commerce Association.
Ji Ruoyan had already come down from the fifth floor and arrived at the VIP room on the third floor. She was sitting idly on a chair.
“President, Sir Su is here.” When Jia Qing appeared at the entrance of the VIP room, she reached out and knocked on the door.
“Come in.” In response, Ji Ruoyan’s cold voice sounded from the VIP room.
Upon hearing this, Jia Qing hurriedly pushed the door open for Su Yu. When Su Yu’s figure entered the VIP room, she immediately closed the door again and waited outside obediently.
“Sir Su, I wonder where you’ve gone to make a fortune these past few days. A few days ago, you didn’t even attend our large-scale auction!”
As soon as Su Yu sat on the chair, Ji Ruoyan’s said resentfully.
“I haven’t made any fortune. I just went to buy some small things. As for the auction, I’m sorry, I really don’t have time. Otherwise, I wouldn’t have missed it for the world.”
Upon hearing Ji Ruoyan’s words, Su Yu shrugged and spoke helplessly.
Seeing that Su Yu did not seem to be lying, Ji Ruoyan composed her expression and said in a deep voice, “Then, may I know what other treasures you have brought this time to trade with us?”
“It’s not much of a treasure. It’s just that it’s relatively rare and special. I wonder if you would like it.”
After saying that, Su Yu casually took out the white jade bottle containing the Level 4 beauty retaining pill and placed it on the table.
‘Another pill. Where did this guy get this pill from? He’s so young, and he doesn’t look like an alchemist!’
Seeing Su Yu take out another white jade bottle, Ji Ruoyan could not help but make a guess.
After suppressing the complicated thoughts in her heart, Ji Ruoyan directly asked, “Sir Su, what pill is it this time? Just say it!”
Ji Ruoyan, who had seen that Su Yu had taken out another pill, could not be bothered to talk nonsense with Su Yu. She went straight to the point.
“This white jade bottle contains a Level 4 beauty retaining pill. The effect should be ordinary. If it is consumed by a cultivator below the King Realm, it can maintain one’s appearance until the day their lifespan ends. Moreover, it can also repair the flaws in their skin.”
Glancing at Ji Ruoyan, Su Yu slowly explained the effects of the beauty retaining pill.
“What? A Level 4 beauty retaining pill?” Upon hearing Su Yu’s words, Ji Ruoyan could not suppress the excitement in her heart. She stood up from her chair.
It was no wonder that Ji Ruoyan was so excited. It was really because she had heard of the beauty retaining pill. However, the refinement method of this pill had long been lost.
‘Its settled. This girl is so excited. I should be able to gain a lot of profit from her,’ Seeing Ji Ruoyan’s excited expression, Su Yu immediately knew what to do.
As for Ji Ruoyan, she immediately calmed down and slowly returned to her seat.
“Sir Su, let’s not beat around the bush. We want the formula to the beauty retaining pill. You can ask for anything you need as long as it is within Myriad Commerce Association.” At this moment, Ji Ruoyan’s eyes were fixed on Su Yu.
“I found this pill in an ancient ruin. There’s no pill formula, but I found the formula to the two simplified versions of the pill there if you’re interested.”
Upon seeing Ji Ruoyan’s expression, Su Yu still spoke calmly.
“Sir Su, why don’t you tell me about the effects of the simplified pill?” After carefully observing Su Yu’s expression and realizing that he did not seem to be lying, Ji Ruoyan suppressed the excitement in her heart and asked in a low voice.
“Level 1 beauty pill. Eating it can protect your appearance for three years. Level
2 beauty nourishing pills can protect your appearance for 20 years.”
Hearing Ji Ruoyan’s questions, Su Yu directly mentioned the effects of the Level 1 beauty pill and the Level 2 beauty nourishing pill.
“What’s the price?” Upon hearing the effects of the two pills, Ji Ruoyan took a deep breath and slowly asked.
“I’ll contribute the pill formula. You’ll pay for the workers and the materials. The profits from the sale will be split 80:20. You get 80% and I get 20%.”
Upon hearing Ji Ruoyan asking him to name the price, Su Yu stretched out his hand and gestured.
“What? That’s impossible.” Upon hearing Su Yu’s words, Ji Ruoyan’s expression instantly changed.
This was because the other party was asking for an exorbitant price. He wanted to take 20% of the sales with just two pill formulas. Ji Ruoyan could not make the decision.
If it was just her branch of the Myriad Commerce Association, Ji Ruoyan could make the decision. However, after obtaining the pill formula, Ji Ruoyan definitely had to report this.
“Little Yan, agree to the 90:10 split.” At that moment, an aged voice sounded beside Ji Ruoyan’s ear.
To be honest, Su Yu was too lazy to fiddle with the beauty nourishing pill and the beauty pill. After all, he needed a lot of materials and they were scattered. Su Yu did not have the time to slowly collect ingredients to waste these low-rank pills. Therefore, he might as well try to sell them to the Myriad Commerce Association.
In any case, with the Alchemy Pavilion in hand, Su Yu could deduce this special pill formula at any time. It was nothing to him.
If he let Shen Wansan and the others sell such pills, Su Yu was really afraid that they would not live to see the sun rise tomorrow.
After all, there were times when one’s strength did not match the treasures that they obtained. It was very difficult to survive in such a world.
If Su Yu didn’t have a trump card to kill King Realm experts, he wouldn’t dare to be so bold..
