CHAPTER 205: CHAPTER 169 DISCUSSION (REQUEST SUBSCRIPTION)_2

How many people are in Jiangzhou City now?

Perhaps a million, or much more than a million, but it hasn’t been counted for a long time.

The Imperial Decree Department has no idea how many people there are in Jiangzhou City!

So, these three people generally believe that as long as they offer up this ten percent of the channel directly, Yuchi will certainly be very satisfied.

As for the people in other towns, it’s merely a reduction in production volume when summed up.

They gritted their teeth, still able to completely endure it, and wouldn’t fight the commerce association right on the spot.

The heads of the clothing industry in other towns were utterly shocked upon hearing this news.

For them, it was like their profit instantly decreased by ten percent.

It’s well known that the profits in Jiangzhou City are the easiest to earn.

When those cultivators buy things, even if they get something they don’t like, they rarely complain!

Moreover, before they came, they hadn’t received any notice. When they initially heard this invitation, they felt somewhat excited.

But upon arriving at the Zhou family, they found something was amiss.

Even if something was wrong, they still didn’t know what great power the commerce association had to make the three major clothing-selling families of Jiangzhou City give in?

Behind these three families are three sects!

The Cloud Mountain Sect and two other sects, all formidable entities.

Their methods are incredibly brutal. If the United Commerce Association were to have a conflict with these sects, the consequences would be dire!

"He must be very satisfied."

"He’s given sufficient face."

"I really envy him."

With sighs, everyone looked at Yuchi again.

And everyone found that Yuchi was still eating slowly at this moment?

It seemed like everything mentioned had nothing to do with him?

Yuchi’s face remained as relaxed as ever, leaving everyone present puzzled.

What does this mean?

Big brother, at least show some expression. You continue eating in silence—what does that mean?!

Zhou Xinnian felt uneasy.

In the gloomy, heavy dining room, even though the food was tempting, he didn’t know what to say next.

After all, based on the rehearsal, Yuchi should at least make a statement!

"Eat?"

Zhou Xinnian struggled for a long time and used a question.

Just sit down! Wu Shi directly pulled him down.

Zhou Xinnian sat down again, hiding his head behind a roast chicken, looking down at Wu Shi on the table.

"What should we do?"

"How do I know? The other side didn’t react at all. Didn’t you explain clearly?"

"Impossible! I just explained so clearly. Didn’t you see the reactions of families from other towns?"

"They all heard it. How could Yuchi not have heard it?"

"Then why didn’t he respond?"

"I don’t know!"

"Then why don’t you stand up and try speaking?"

"Say what? Let’s just eat first. The backing behind the commerce association is too massive and terrifying!"

The meal was eaten awkwardly like this.

If they were family, having a meal would be harmonious and nice.

But this kind of dinner is simply torture, not knowing if they can retreat and make a quick escape.

And so, it went.

Time for one incense stick passed.

Time for two incense sticks passed.

Just as everyone was about to be overwhelmed by this dead silence, Yuchi finally finished eating.

He wiped his mouth with the cloth nearby, pushed his tongue against his teeth, rubbed his hands, and stood up.

Everyone’s eyes instantly fell on him again.

Dressed in a black embroidered robe, the young man’s features were handsome and with a smile, he was downright friendly as he spoke:

"The business in Jiangzhou City, is what the commerce association wants to capture."

"Ten percent is not enough, our Xufu Town United Commerce Association wants thirty percent."

"For families originally doing business with the Zhou family, sorry, from now on, the Zhou family won’t be cooperating with you."

"All their channels in Jiangzhou City will be supplied by our commerce association."

"That’s it."

"Anyone here oppose? Raise your hand if you oppose, let me see."

Yuchi stood there, like the neighbor’s big brother.

Ten percent of the channel?

Who’s he fooling?

Who cares about that ten percent of the channel?

After toppling the Cloud Mountain Sect behind the Zhou family, do I still need to give the Cloud Mountain Sect any face?

This is already tearing the face; no need to give face anymore.

As for the Fang and Wu families, there are two other sects behind them that seem unaware of Xun Yu’s issue, surviving for now.

Thus, Yuchi did not need to make enemies widely, just eliminate the weakest, eliminate thoroughly.

The Cloud Mountain Sect is definitely to be collapsed in one blow.

So, looking from four angles at this decision.

...

For the sects.

The collapse of the Cloud Mountain Sect doesn’t affect the interests of the other two sects.

Instead, it gives them a chance to absorb disciples from the Cloud Mountain Sect, greatly increasing their own power.

They would rather stand out to support Yuchi, because supporting Yuchi now, is supporting themselves.

...

For Jiangzhou City.

Zhou Xinnian’s side has no loss, isn’t it just taking supplies, where not to take supplies?

Moreover, Yuchi’s move fully helps him avoid blame.

From now on, if former partners come looking for him, he can directly pass the blame to Yuchi!
