Tang Chuan nodded his head: "That's right, the situation is better than the others, although our boss has the strength, he is still lacking."

"I hope a miracle will happen." Tang Qing sighed.

As Hua Ruge walked on the street, her spirit was gone once again. In the next two days, she shut herself in her study, not leaving even after leaving the door. The servant girls and servants were all worried.

It couldn't be that the pressure was too great and he couldn't bear it anymore, right?

As the three major merchant guilds did their best to suppress them, their Nine Regions Chamber of Commerce continued to decline and the amount of money they had became lesser and lesser by the day. Soon, they would no longer be able to go on any longer in the city.

Tang Chuan was unable to contact Hua Ruge, and was extremely anxious. He wanted to move the money of the bank to save her, but he was afraid that if he did, he would lose everything.

Fortunately, Hua Ruge had walked out of the study on the third day. The servants and attendants all came forward and pretended to walk carelessly by her side.

However, Hua Ruge's complexion was good, there was no despair or collapse in his eyes, instead, it was filled with fighting spirit. This made them even more curious, just what kind of stimulation did their boss receive?

"Alright, you guys don't have to worry about me anymore. I'll be fine no matter what, just go and do what you need to do." Hua Ruge said as he walked out of the door.

The rest of the servants looked at each other, not knowing how Hua Ruge suddenly underwent such a drastic change.

Hua Ruge went straight to the Nine Regions Chamber of Commerce, causing everyone in the merchant guild to look anxious. All of them sighed, as though their Nine Regions Chamber of Commerce had already gone out of business.

She did not care about these people, and directly walked towards Tang Chuan's room at the back.

"Boss, you're here?" Dongchuan had a face full of pleasant surprise. He was worried that Hua Ruge would not appear for the past two days.

Hua Ruge nodded, and said: "The reason why I haven't done anything else these two days, is because I'm making a plan to help our Chamber of Commerce make a comeback."

"Boss, you have an idea?"

"Of course." Hua Ruge was in high spirits as he quickly said: "Elder Tang, inform the shops below that from today onwards, whether it be pills or weapons, their prices will drop by 10%."

"What?" Tang Chuan thought he heard wrong.

They were no longer able to turn the situation around, so why would they need to lower the price?

Hua Ruge earnestly repeated: "You didn't hear wrong, reduce the price again, and lower it than them."

"But boss, we are almost unable to hold on any longer. Where did the money come from?" Tang Chuan asked. In any case, it was still a matter of money.

"I'll borrow the money, you just have to do as I say. If the funds in your hands are not working, you can use the bank's money first." Hua Ruge explained.

Tang Chuan became anxious: "Boss, even if you can borrow money, we will always lose money now, no matter how much we borrow, we will always lose money. How are you going to repay us in the future?"

"I'll get it back from whoever made me lose money." Hua Ruge said.

Tang Chuan still didn't understand.

"Do it." After Hua Ruge gave the orders, he went over to Shangguan Li's place and had her people deliver a letter to him.

Shangguan Li accepted her jade strips, and handed them over to his subordinate, and asked her: "Are you sure you want to take this risk?"

"Otherwise, I can't possibly admit defeat, right?" Hua Ruge tapped his fingers on the armrest of his chair: "Since you've decided to fight, then don't think about getting away with it."

"Do you want me to send someone to carry out the second step for you?" Shangguan Li asked her.

Hua Ruge shook his head immediately. "No need, all of the shopkeepers under me aren't raised for nothing, you can help me scout for information."

"Yes." Shangguan Li nodded.

Thus, starting from the second day, the price of the Nine Regions Chamber of Commerce pills and weapons had been reduced by another ten percent.2

Meanwhile, the profit from the bank increased by ten percent.

This news caused a huge commotion. Everyone went to the shops in the Nine Prefectures to buy weapons, to buy medicinal pills, and to store spirit stones.

Because the business of the bank was getting better, a large amount of Spirit Stones were deposited in there. If this continued, the amount of funds that would be transferred to Nine Regions Chamber of Commerce would become more and more.

This time, it was the three great organizations who were stunned. They saw that their Nine Regions Chamber of Commerce was running out so they thought that they could accept the result of the victory. Who would have thought that Hua Ruge would actually play such a trick.

She was actually lowering the price. Did she still have money?

And now that the price of the Nine Regions Chamber of Commerce had been lowered, it had caused a certain degree of impact to them. However, as they saw the people from the Nine Regions Bank deposit more and more money, they all felt that Hua Ruge would rely on these spirit stones to make a comeback.

If she had more money, it might set off a huge storm. After all, what she had done in the Great Zhou Empire was obvious to all.

The reason why they bullied her was because she had a weak foundation. If she had a strong foundation, they might not even have the guts to beat around the bush with her.

"Our bank should also increase the profit. Otherwise, if she had the money, something big would have happened." Boss Liu was the first to speak.

The other two nodded in agreement. They didn't want to take the risk.

"Then we don't need to lower the price of our pills and weapons for now. If she continues to mess around like this, we'll die." Boss Du said.

However, Boss Sheng said, "I don't think that's necessarily the case. Her medicinal herbs have a different background from mine, and the most she can do now is to lose money at this point in time. Her Weapons Pavilion is a bit lacking, but her limited supplies can also limit the losses to an acceptable range."

"Don't tell me she has other sources of income?" Boss Du asked doubtfully.

Boss Liu thought about it and said: "It's very possible, don't forget that Hua Ruge's network is very wide, maybe he can get the money from there."

"But even if she had some money, why would she do that? "Could it be that it wants us to have no business and thus drag us down?" As he spoke, Boss Du felt like laughing.

How could the three of them, a huge merchant guild backed by the Heaven Seeking Pill Palace, be dragged down by such a small Nine Regions Chamber of Commerce?

What kind of joke was this?

"It's very possible that she doesn't have any funds at all, or even a small amount of funds. This is just to scare us." Boss Liu analyzed.

Boss Sheng nodded. "That's a possibility."

"If we don't reduce the price now, she will limit her losses to an acceptable range. In addition to the money the bank has brought, we won't be able to collapse within a short period of time. Instead, we have no business." Boss Du said.

"In time, we will lose a lot of customers, and we don't even know if our Nine Regions Chamber of Commerce will collapse." Boss Liu sighed.

Boss Sheng looked at the two of them and said, "So we should lower the price now, shouldn't we?"

"That's right, we'll give it our all. If the price falls to ten percent lower than her current price, I want to see how long she can hold out for." Boss Liu said.

The other two also clenched their teeth and nodded. After reaching this step, there was no turning back.
