Endless Winter: My Camp Upgrades Infinitely

Chapter 1143: Chapter 391: Yang Family Disciples Rise Above Beishuo, The Shock of Cai Qiu, Sudden Upheaval (Part 3)

This was a piece of advice that Xia Hong personally gave to Xia Chuan and them before leaving Hongmen some time ago, and Yuan Cheng was also present at the time.

With the Lord’s instruction, Yuan Cheng certainly couldn’t act impulsively, but his anger was still ignited by Yang Fan, and he couldn’t help but lower his voice and shout:

”Old man, do you really think I don’t dare to kill you!”

”Then...”

”Did Chairman Yang just say that Beishuo gave face to Great Xia by coming all the way here to trade with us?”

Seeing that Yuan Cheng’s anger was really provoked, and fearing that he might act impulsively, Qiu Peng couldn’t help but speak up.

He first asked a rhetorical question, then without waiting for Yang Fan’s response, he smiled and continued, ”I have been puzzled in my heart before as to why trade with the other Six Towns goes smoothly, but when it comes to Beishuo and Jin Mountain, it doesn’t work. I used to think it was because the two towns had limited finances, and I wondered if the prices should be lowered. Now I realize that Chairman Yang has been thinking this all along.”

As soon as Qiu Peng spoke, Yang Fan’s expression showed a hint of regret.

But there’s no turning back once the arrow is shot, and it’s too late for him to take anything back now.

”Words spoken by someone of Chairman Yang’s stature surely represent Beishuo Town, and since Beishuo sees it as Great Xia begging you for trade, I suppose the things of Great Xia can’t catch Beishuo’s attention. From today, there will be no need for trade between the two towns, and no one from both the Beishuo Chamber of Commerce and Beishuo Town need come to Hongmen City in the future!”

Wow......

No one expected that Qiu Peng would announce in front of so many people that Great Xia and Beishuo would cease trade relations in the future. Moreover, not only the Beishuo Chamber of Commerce, but anyone from Beishuo Town need not come to Hongmen City!

The surroundings immediately went into an uproar, and the Seven Towns Chamber of Commerce members were all stunned.

Yang Fan’s body trembled even more, recalling the Dan Medicines and materials he had seen in the Treasure Tower in the past few days, he instantly clenched his fists under his sleeves, his heart trembling incessantly.

Firstly, he never expected Qiu Peng to react so absolutely.

Secondly, he couldn’t believe Qiu Peng had so much authority.

As far as he knew, Qiu Peng was just the Camp Supply Department Director of the Eight Divisions of Great Xia. Though he managed the materials and finances, it was beyond his expectation that he could independently decide such a significant issue concerning trade with the Eight Towns.

And Qiu Peng wasn’t finished; he looked towards the members of the Seven Towns Chamber of Commerce, found Shangguan Ying, and smiled as he asked, ”It seems Jin Mountain and Beishuo share a similar viewpoint. Would Chairman Shangguan...”

”Director Qiu, Shangguan Ying guarantees, Jinshan Town has never had such thoughts as Beishuo. As for the supplies from Great Xia, Jinshan Town indeed desires them, and the prices can be negotiated slowly. By dawn, I guarantee to give Lord Qiu satisfaction, how about that?”

Having learned from the example, Shangguan Ying immediately chose to act prudently, making a clean break with Beishuo and directly giving an assurance with confidence.

”Then I shall await your visit, Chairman Shangguan!”

Seeing Shangguan Ying being so sensible, Qiu Peng nodded, his face full of smiles. Watching the presidents from the other six towns pay respects and greet him courteously, he nodded in response to each, a hint of pride rising in his eyes.

This is the unequal trade relationship brought about by productivity!

Only the Eight Towns seek Great Xia; Great Xia does not seek the Eight Towns.

Does Great Xia need the things from the Eight Towns?

Of course, it needs the unique basic materials from the Eight Towns, such as medicinal materials, spirit plants, ores, Cold Beast materials, and so on; Great Xia requires anything that cannot be found within its territories.

The issue is that Great Xia does not have an urgent need for these demands.

With the current power of Great Xia, obtaining these things is not that difficult. Acquiring them through trade is merely a way to save some effort in hoping to find something precious.

The true demands of Great Xia are the coal, iron, and silver from the Eight Towns.

However, the Eight Towns have many demands for Great Xia!

From fabrics, grains, oils, ceramics, clothing, devices, tools; to refined salt, fine wines, weapons, war armor; up to various precious Dan Medicines and other cultivation resources, these are almost essential, with refined salt, fine wine, and Dan Medicine being most crucial for cultivation-related activities.

If you want to continue to develop, you have to buy them.

Once the Eight Towns buy these things back, they will surely try to imitate what they can, and as for what they can’t replicate or produce in the short term, they can only obediently keep returning to Great Xia to purchase them.

Whether they imitate them or not, in the end, Great Xia will reap the benefits effortlessly!

Qiu Peng’s eyes flashed with a dark light, throwing aside his inner thoughts, he continued to look at Yang Fan and the other fifteen people from Beishuo, coldly saying, ”Since I, the Director, have already announced that there is no trade relationship between Great Xia and Beishuo, it would be inconvenient for Hongmen City to host you any longer. Chairman Yang, please lead your people and leave immediately!”

”You...”

Yang Fan’s face was full of anger, and he instinctively wanted to retort, but seeing that many Golden Armored Soldiers had already arrived around him, he immediately closed his mouth, standing still with a face turning from pale to red, until in the end, he didn’t dare to say anything, and directly turned towards the city gate to leave.

”Let’s go, back to Beishuo!”

Seeing Yang Fan obediently leading his people away, the chill on Qiu Peng’s face gradually dissipated. He then turned to look around at everyone and said pleasantly, ”Everyone, rest assured, as long as the rules are followed, Great Xia will not target anyone, and any person who buys something from the Treasure Tower and does not leave Hongmen City, regardless of who they are, Great Xia will guarantee your safety hundred percent.”
