2088: C2088 Bring the Mine with You

C2088 Bring the Mine with You

When the power was switched, the former city lord would do everything in his power to take away all the money he had, leaving a huge fiscal hole.

This was the problem that Xiao Xiao was facing.

However, the Eastern Emperor Family received Mu Chen's full help during the challenge, so they did not do anything so extreme.

The Flower Seahold had just been rebuilt, and the debts from the various projects reached two hundred million purple gold coins.

Xiao Xiao had to think of a way to fill up this hole, or else the official's reputation would be greatly discounted, and the creditor who was confident in themselves would also come to put pressure on her.

"Sigh, every family has its own difficulties."

"I don't need to ask for money. I can help you with the other things."

"City Lord Xiao, don't be nervous."

"It's fine as long as you can organize the transportation vehicles in the nearby area. You can provide better services and subsidies to the vehicles that are heading toward Minglan City, so that they can use Flower Sea City as a hub."

"That way, we can ensure that the other side's ore and raw materials are in short supply. Orders for weapons and equipment are very likely to be breached."

The men in black felt that the strategy that they came up with was seamless.

Even if they did not cause any substantial damage to Mu Chen, it would still leave a negative impression on those wealthy and distinguished families who came to Minglan City to inspect.

The shortage of raw materials would restrict the development of the business, and it would also allow them to reconsider the issue of investment.

"Holding ores and crystals at a low price will rapidly increase the reserves. If not handled well, the warehouse might explode."

"What method do you want to use to consume them?"

"To tell you the truth."

"To tell you the truth. Andong City, Zhiyuan City and Fanhua City have joined hands to receive a large construction order, and they are going to rebuild a prison directly under the Elders Guild in the forest in the outskirts of the Sanctuary."

"This project will consume an astronomical amount of raw materials. With the ores and crystals found, the funds will be able to return quickly."

Xiao Xiao finally understood the other party's confidence. No wonder he dared to compete with Mu Chen.

After the matter of the cooperation was decided, the emissaries took advantage of the night and left.

In just a few days' time, the change in the raw material market had caused many factories in Minglan City to be unable to endure it.

The goods that should have been transported here were taken away at a high price, and even the fixed transportation routes of a few large convoys had been changed.

A clever woman could not cook a meal without rice.

The shortage of raw materials would limit the production and processing of various products, forcing the price to increase and weaken the competitiveness of the market.

East Emperor Northson was in charge of the management of the daily affairs, and the company run by his family was also severely affected.

This made him immediately start investigating the cause of the matter and then report to Mu Chen to make a decision.

The manor that was supposed to be built by Mu Chen had also stopped construction in the past few days, so he had heard a little about the problem of raw materials.

When the two of them met, East Emperor Shuo started to complain non-stop.

"Someone must have been causing trouble behind the scenes, manipulating the supply and price of the product, just for the sake of targeting Minglan City."

"The merchant groups of the Wealthy and Prominent families are still not planning to leave. I can only use the official storage warehouse to supply the various merchants."

"It's to prevent a large scale shutdown and leave a bad impression on the outside world."

He was splashed with cold water when he was in the best mood. This made him furious.

Mu Chen asked coldly.

"How much longer can the storage last?"

"No more than ten days."

"Have you contacted the original supplier?"

"You must find out the reason."

"Antong City, Zhiyuan City, and Fanhua City are located nearby, and they are selling a lot of goods at a higher market price. They are only targeting the suppliers who have a business relationship with us."

Distant water could not quench immediate thirst.

Due to the vast area of the Celestial World, the cost of transportation was a crucial factor.

As long as all the suppliers near Minglan City were attracted over, the merchants that were further away would not come here to deliver goods.

Mu Chen thought about it for a long time, but he did not know when he would form a grudge with these three main cities.

He thought that it was the Guild Alliance fanning the flames in the Holy Region, causing Minglan City to become a lost land.

"Send someone to secretly investigate where the other party stored the ores and crystal stones."

"You don't have to worry about the supply. The demonic beasts will solve the problem perfectly."

"Yes, sir."

Mu Chen went to the official warehouse base alone for an inspection.

Whether it was the warehouse or the metal storage tank, they were all extremely large.

The materials stored here included metal materials, herbs, food, weapons, and equipment.

They were completely prepared according to the standard for dealing with wars.

Large trucks went in and out of the warehouse, and a few warehouses had already been emptied.

The staff respectfully handed the list over to Mu Chen. The data on it seemed to leave a rich and imposing impression, but the daily consumption of the merchants in the entire city was also an astronomical figure.

"How did the merchants who came to collect the goods react?"

"It seems that they are lacking in confidence. I wonder how to maintain the business after the official inventory is used up."

If he wanted to increase the confidence of the merchants, he would have to start with money.

Mu Chen immediately arranged a countermeasure.

"From now on, all the raw materials that are sold only need to be promissory notes. They are not allowed to collect payment from the other party."

"After the goods are sold, let them have enough cash flow before coming over to settle the bill."

"Tell everyone that Minglan City is the most wealthy main city. All the goods can be provided at a fixed time."

The expression on the staff's face was very conflicted. They thought that Mu Chen was just pretending to be rich.

Seeing that the warehouse was almost empty, the remaining stocks could not last for more than a few days.0

It was too unwise for him to bear the risk of debt for no reason.

If the merchant went bankrupt or ran away, Mu Chen would be the one to fill in the big hole.

"The City Lord's generosity and kindness can be witnessed by the sun and the moon. How should we deal with the rest?"

Mu Chen waved his hand with a smile. He was already very confident.

A dazzling white light flashed beside him, and the main body of the mutated Iron Wire Worm came out.

Then, it opened its big mouth and spat out an overwhelming amount of ores and crystal stones.

The fist-sized rocks quickly filled up the empty warehouse, not even letting go of the empty space outside.

The stones piled up like a mountain and became a real mine.

The spectacular scene caused all the staff to be dumbstruck. They had long since heard of the strength of the Demonic Beasts around Mu Chen, but they didn't expect it to have such a wonderful effect.

When the Mutated Iron Wire Worm followed Mu Chen to fight everywhere, it would always look for opportunities to plunder the spoils of war.

Other than using them to increase its own strength, the rest of the things were stored in its stomach for emergencies.

"This way, you guys can sell the goods without worry."

"We are truly impressed by the City Lord's methods."

"Haha, it's a piece of cake."
