Protect Our Clan Leader

Chapter 2544: Chapter 62: Massive Chaos Spirit Stone Windfall! Five-Colored Spirit Fruit Tree

After a pause, Prince Wen Yu said with utmost sincerity, “I know you have a stable source of grain production, and you’ve hardly sold any in the past ten years. Junxi is willing to purchase all the grain you have at a price fifty percent higher than the peak ten years ago.”

Before coming, Prince Wen Yu had ordered He Lian Duo Cai to calculate the total amount. According to He Lian Duo Cai’s calculations, Wang Shouzhe has accumulated ten years’ worth of grain production, and at peak normal grain prices, the total value is about three Chaos Spirit Stones.

Prince Wen Yu decided to purchase this grain at a high price of four and a half Chaos Spirit Stones.

Besides, Wang Shouzhe must have secretly purchased large quantities of grain at low prices, possibly holding twice the annual output of the Tianrui Saint Dynasty. This could be worth six Chaos Spirit Stones, and with gritted teeth, it could be bought for nine Chaos Spirit Stones.

Perhaps there might be some discrepancy in the stock, but Prince Wen Yu believes the total purchase price should be between thirteen to twenty Chaos Spirit Stones. Although this is an astronomical amount, the treasury of the Tianrui Saint Dynasty can barely withstand it.

Wang Shouzhe smiled at Prince Wen Yu and said, “Since your highness speaks so frankly, I shall be frank too. I will sell the grain, but you must purchase all the grain I have. I’d rather not engage in piecemeal transactions, bit by bit.”

Prince Wen Yu nodded hurriedly, “Indeed, given your status, you should not spend too much energy on such mundane matters. However much grain you have, we’ll buy it all.”

“Secondly, I don’t want to haggle.” Wang Shouzhe put down his teacup, still speaking very calmly, “Sell it at double the grain price from eleven years ago; if that works, alright, if not, let it go.”

As he spoke, under Wang Shouzhe’s eye signal, Jiang Mu Xian handed over a list of grain stock.

When Prince Wen Yu heard the price had doubled, his heart couldn’t help but skip a beat. Upon seeing Wang Shouzhe’s total inventory of Spirit Rice more clearly, his face reddened sharply, almost spitting blood.

The amount of stock in Wang Shouzhe’s hands far exceeded his expectations.

Aside from Wang Shouzhe’s own production and storage of grain, which was estimated correctly enough, he’d purchased seven years’ worth of the dynasty’s total annual grain output over the past ten years.

This alone was worth twenty-one Chaos Spirit Stones, and doubling the purchase would require forty-two Chaos Spirit Stones.

Along with Wang Shouzhe’s self-produced grain inventory worth about three and a half Chaos Spirit Stones, doubled for seven Chaos Spirit Stones, the total grain purchase price would have to reach forty-nine Chaos Spirit Stones.

This had thoroughly shattered Prince Wen Yu’s psychological limit.

For Tianrui Saint Dynasty to produce so many Chaos Spirit Stones, wouldn’t it be detrimental?

“Lord Shouzhe.” Prince Wen Yu’s face looked unpleasant; he barely held back from exploding on the spot, “Isn’t this trick a bit too ruthless?”

“Ruthless?” Wang Shouzhe chuckled, “It’s just normal business dealings, naturally consensual. Or is your highness planning to use official means to force Shouzhe?”

Prince Wen Yu’s face darkened.

Wang Shouzhe was clearly mocking his previous use of official means. If he could, he’d want to lead the troops to surround Guiyuan Other Courtyard and force Wang Shouzhe to produce the grain.

Unfortunately, aside from Wang Shouzhe’s own significant background, having a mysterious Sacred Supreme secretly guarding him, his relationships with the Cloud Peng Sacred Supreme from Primordial Taoist Palace, and the transcendent powers Cloud Sea Heavenly Abode as well as Water Moon Heavenly Abode of Tianrui Saint Dynasty are exceptional.

If both parties fell out with each other, Wang Shouzhe wouldn’t necessarily lose, and this prince would likely reach the end of his road.

“Lord Shouzhe, could it be cheaper?” Prince Wen Yu suppressed his anger, showing a pleasing expression, “Perhaps I could purchase it for five percent more and calculate the total purchase price at thirty-eight Chaos Spirit Stones.”

“If there’s no deal, righteousness remains. Farewell to you, your highness.” Wang Shouzhe said, flicking out two jade bottles, handing them to Pei Chang’an and Yao Xingshu beside Prince Wen Yu, “These two threads of Chaos Origin should be considered a gift from Mu Xian.”

Both Pei Chang’an and Yao Xingshu were stunned as they each took a thread of Chaos Origin, feeling waves of astonishment in their hearts.

Wang Shouzhe’s methods were truly astonishing, controlling the entire dynasty’s grain. How much cost must have been invested? Furthermore, he’s generous; the prince gifts a maid a thread of Chaos Origin, he straightaway gifts the prince’s two subordinates each one thread.

This clearly tells the prince: First, I do not lack Chaos Origin. Second, this grain price war was started by the prince, but the decision to end it lies in Wang Shouzhe’s hands.

True to his origin as a noble from a top prominent family of Central Continent, his methods truly reach the heavens~

While Pei Chang’an and Yao Xingshu were stunned, Prince Wen Yu’s face alternated between red and white, his heart almost bursting with frustration.

He was merely trying to haggle, yet Wang Shouzhe had directly expelled him!

This Wang Shouzhe truly did not give him any face!

Prince Wen Yu clenched his fists tightly, barely containing his fury, almost exploding on the spot.

However, just then.

The sky suddenly filled with a turbulent whirlwind; surges of energy exploded, then quickly condensed, transforming in an instant into a dignified old man.
