The Chamber of Commerce Alliance.
There were more than three hundred Chambers of Commerce in the repeating students “compound, and it was the place where business flourished the most in the entire Jianghai Academy. Although there were very few resources distributed by the Academy’s officials, no one was in charge of them. Other than the protection fees that had to be paid to the five Giants on a regular basis, they had absolute freedom.
Since ancient times, the more free a place was, the more prosperous it would be for business. At the same time, it was also a place where evil bred.
Moreover, this was the gathering place of the most powerful experts in Jianghai city. Whether it was their resource needs or the things that they casually leaked out, they all had huge commercial value. Naturally, they also represented a huge amount of commercial profits.
The atmosphere in the meeting room was tense.
“President Zhang, you cut off Lin Wuju’s dividends without going through the Administrative Committee’s discussion. What are you doing to US Chamber of Commerce representatives?”
“That’s right, the five Giants can’t be humiliated. This is the foundation of our Chamber of Commerce Alliance. Even if the five Giants fight to the death, we must remain objective and neutral. We can’t get involved easily, or we’ll be dismembered in minutes!”
“President Zhang, did you receive any benefits from the fallen Dragon?”
Faced with the collective doubts of the Chamber of Commerce representatives, President Tang Ren was calm and unhurried. He slowly waited until everyone was tired of talking and stopped spontaneously before he said indifferently,””Objective and neutral? Can we really remain objective and neutral?”
Everyone was silent.
“Everyone here is Smart-I don’t need to waste my breath on such a simple logic. Now that the fallen Dragon has spoken, he’s going to deal with Lin Yi. Who do you think I should choose?”
Tang Ren sipped his tea calmly and looked at the crowd’s uncertain expressions.””The answer is obvious, right? If it was up to you guys, would you choose to stand on Lin Yi’s side? Don’t joke around. ”
Everyone was moved. If it was really time to pick a side, as long as they were not stupid, they would naturally choose the fallen Dragon.
However, there were still some people who were dissatisfied.”No matter what, you overstepped the Administrative Committee and made a decision on your own. This is a serious violation of the interests of the Chamber of Commerce Alliance. You still haven’t explained the most important question. Do you have any interest in the fallen Dragon Group?”
Zhang Ren laughed as he leaned back in his chair.”I don’t need to answer this question.”
“Then who’s going to answer?” everyone frowned.
“It’s me,”he said.
An ordinary-looking young man with glasses stood up in the other corner of the meeting room and introduced himself with a smile,””I’m Jin yang, the logistics Manager of the Dragon’s Nest. My family head has ordered that in the future, all transactions with the Dragon’s Nest will have a 50% discount. It’s a small gift from the Dragon’s Nest. Of course, the premise is that you recognize the Dragon’s Nest as a friend.”
Everyone was silent.
The Dragon’s Nest was one of the repeat Academy’s largest sources of goods. The annual transactions were astronomical, and a five-point discount was enough to make anyone’s heart beat faster.
However, huge benefits came with huge risks. Becoming friends with the Dragon’s Nest meant becoming Lin Yi’s enemy. Whether or not the five-point profit was worth the risk, everyone had to evaluate it carefully.
Seeing that everyone was silent, jin Yang’s face sank.””I’m sure you all know my patriarch’s temper. Rejecting the olive branch from our Dragon Nest means that he wants to be our enemy. It’s best for you to consider it carefully to avoid any misjudgment. Otherwise, it won’t be good if something unspeakable happens.”
The atmosphere suddenly became a little more depressing.
With such a blatant threat, the Chamber of Commerce representatives couldn’t even say a word, let alone get angry. This was the pressure from the five Giants.
“They seem to be in a difficult position. Why don’t I ask on their behalf?”
An indifferent voice rang out from the crowd,””Why don’t you give me an example of what you can’t say?”
Everyone looked towards the source of the voice, and their eyes twitched. They didn’t know when Lin Yi was sitting in the middle of them, but the teacup in front of him was already half empty. He must’ve been here for a long time.
Perhaps, he had been sitting here from the very beginning.
Jin yang and Tang Ren’s eyes twitched. They had the fallen Dragon behind them, but Lin Yi still gave them a lot of pressure, especially when they were caught off guard.
“This is the Chamber of Commerce Alliance’s representative meeting, and it involves many trade secrets. Although the newcomer King is one of the five Giants, it doesn’t seem right for him to barge in without any reason, right?”
Tang Ren and jin yang looked at each other and stood up with a cold smile.””If people who don’t know what’s going on hear about this, they might even misunderstand that Lin Wuju is here to eavesdrop on trade secrets. If word gets out, he’ll really become a laughingstock.”
“Are you sure the fallen Dragon will protect you?” Lin Yi said with a half-smile.
The invisible pressure suddenly increased, and Tang Ren’s breath suddenly stopped.
Although the President of the Chamber of Commerce Alliance was a prominent figure with great financial power, it was a pity that in the face of true strength, his wealth was nothing but a castle in the air.
In the end, the existence of the Chamber of Commerce Alliance was built on the delicate balance between the five Giants. Once the balance was broken, such a bright and beautiful rootless duckweed would definitely be the first to suffer.
As the president, Tang Ren would be the first to bear the brunt.
“Isn’t Lin Wuju’s table manners a little too unsightly to threaten the entire Chamber of Commerce Alliance in such a manner?”
Jin yang stood up. He knew that Tang Ren wasn’t a strong-willed person. If he couldn’t take Lin Yi’s pressure and turned on him, the situation would be ugly.
“You don’t look like you’re from the Chamber of Commerce?” Lin Yi looked at him.
“Of course not, I’m not the Dragon’s Nest …” The Golden Goat said proudly.
Before she could finish, she was pulled by an invisible force and fell into Lin Yi’s hand. Her knees went soft uncontrollably and she knelt in front of Lin Yi.
Everyone was shocked.
Although golden sheep was in charge of logistics in the Dragon’s Nest and was not a frontline combatant, he was still an important member of the fallen Dragon Group. Moreover, he was a giant in the late stage of the consummate level. To be able to catch the fallen Dragon’s Eye, it meant that his strength was definitely not bad. In fact, he could also occupy a place in the top 100.
Yet a person like this was like a chicken in Lin Yi’s hands.
“Unrelated personnel, pay attention to your position. You can die if you talk too much.”
Lin Yi’s one sentence made him fall silent, and when he turned to look at Tang Ren, the president who was full of confidence just a moment ago was now shaking like a leaf.
It was not until this moment that he finally realized that in the face of absolute power, his so-called support was simply a joke. He could even deal with the fallen Dragon group’s executives as he pleased, so why would he be afraid of a mere associate president?
