C24 Third Path
Enjoy peace in happiness, feel happiness in peace!
Every day, Su Chen would bring hope to his journey, and every day, he would bring hope back to the ancestral house. The work of refining entrusted him with hope for the future, and the wonderful person in the ancestral house affected his feelings.
This kind of life was like the moonlight, seeming hazy and hazy. It seemed ethereal, but it could also be felt. Every night when the stars shone brightly, the two of them would sit on the roof and quietly enjoy the mysterious feeling brought by this celestial body. At the same time, there was also a kind of warmth and romance between them.
Unknowingly, Su Chen had become a Fourth Grade Upper Grade with the help of the starlight, and his Artifact Forging Technique had become more proficient. Yu Qingying spent all day in the ancestral house thinking, and seemed to have gained a lot.
March 15th was a happy day, and it broke the peaceful life!
After many negotiations, the Small Artifact Shop, led by the Loo family and the Li Family, finally decided to join the Profound Weapon Shop and unify the Purple Town.
The words Su Chen said to Lu Subai a few days ago were like a key that unlocked the hearts of those people and made such a decision.
The people of the Profound Weapon Shop were extremely excited about this result. As long as they could take over these small scale weapon shops, Purple Town would welcome a unified situation. This was the situation that everyone hoped to see.
On this day, the Profound Weapon Shop was decorated with colorful lanterns and lanterns, gathering all the guests and friends. It was bustling with noise and excitement. Amidst the drums and gongs and the sound of firecrackers, the masters of the sixteen weapon shops brought their capable assistants to the Profound Weapon Shop one after another.
Master Gongzang and Artifact Master Liu were in charge of receiving the guests in the inner hall, while the Shop Lord and Su Chen were in charge of welcoming the guests at the entrance. When the Loo family Master brought Lu Subai over, Su Chen hurriedly went forward to greet him. "Su Chen greets the Loo family Master, Miss Lu!"
The Loo family's patriarch was a skinny old man with spirited eyes. He only slightly nodded his head in response to Su Chen's greeting. Lu Subai blushed slightly when she saw Su Chen. Apparently, she felt embarrassed when she recalled the incident a few days ago.
"Su Chen, the master of Loo family is our distinguished guest. You should welcome him personally." When the Shop Lord saw the unusual look in Su Chen's and Lu Subai's eyes, it couldn't help but narrow its eyes and smile.
"Yes, please follow me!" Su Chen received the order and led the two into the hall. He arranged for them to be the first seat. When Su Chen was about to leave, Lu Subai stood up and stopped him.
"Miss Lu, is there anything you need help with?" Su Chen turned around and asked him.
"After the banquet starts later, you should leave this place immediately. The further you go, the better. It would be best if you never return to Purple Town again." Lu Subai walked up to Su Chen and said in a low voice, breathing like orchids.
"Why?" When Su Chen heard her words, a trace of surprise flashed across his face.
"Don't worry about the reason. Just listen to me." Lu Subai's expression was anxious. When she said this, she couldn't help but stretch out her delicate hand and push Su Chen. Her unusual action seemed to have made Su Chen realize something.
"I understand. Thank you for your reminder, Miss Lu." Su Chen nodded.
"Pure white..." When the patriarch of Loo family saw his daughter and Su Chen, he didn't know what to say. He couldn't help but frown and call his daughter back.
After Su Chen returned to the Shop Lord's side, he reported to the patriarch in a low voice, "Lord, something might happen when the banquet starts later. You'd better make some preparations. I'll go to the outer perimeter and gather some people as backup."
"I know that they won't be willing to join us. There will definitely be some small tricks up their sleeves. Therefore, this Shop Lord has already kept some tricks up its sleeve. Don't worry about it." When the Shop Lord heard these words, he appeared to be very confident.
It was close to noon, and the guests were all seated. The noise shook the sky, and the hall of Profound Weapon Shop was filled with laughter and laughter. Everyone was celebrating this special day. The Shop Lord acted as if nothing had happened, and greeted Master Gongzang and Artifact Master Liu. He chatted with everyone, laughed loudly, and displayed his heroic personality.
At noon, along with the gongs and drums, firecrackers and firecrackers, the fusion ceremony officially began in the lively atmosphere. Master Gongzang was in charge of hosting the ceremony today. He walked one by one according to the standard procedure. The scene was orderly and orderly, step by step.
"The first item, firecrackers ringing, playing the song of Artifact Master!"
"The second item, all the Artifact Master stand up and pay their respects to our noble profession."
"The third item, please bring the sixteen Shop Lord from the Item Shop to the front desk and sign a contract with Shop Lord Wang from the Profound Weapon Shop's Purple Town!" When Master Gongzang read until here, there was a round of applause from the crowd.
Under the watchful eyes of everyone, the sixteen Shop Lord from the Item Shop and Shop Lord Wang from the Purple Town came to the front of the stage. Each of them received a contract regarding the merger of many weapons shops. Once they signed this contract, these sixteen weapons merchants would be accepted by the Profound Weapon Shop. Furthermore, they would be operated according to the requirements of the Profound Weapon Shop.
The sixteen Shop Lord had solemn expressions on their faces. They were silent as they quietly looked at the contract in their hands. Shop Lord Wang from the Purple Town of the Profound Weapon Shop wasn't in a hurry to urge them. He just stood by with a smile on his face and waited.
Due to the oppressive atmosphere of the scene, an official member of the Purple Town cupped his hands towards the Shop Lord and said with a smile, "Shop Lord, today the weapon industry of Purple Town has been completely merged, forming a unified situation. This is really worth celebrating."
"That's right. Thanks to the trust of the major families, they have agreed to join the branch of the Profound Weapon Shop's Purple Town. This was a very good thing. I can guarantee that Profound Weapon Shop will provide the best platform for everyone to use. And... Give the most generous reward " The Shop Lord cupped his hands in return and did not forget to take the opportunity to promote benevolence.
"Shop Lord Wang, I have already seen this contract of yours. There are no problems with the basic terms. It is just that in terms of executive rights and profit distribution, we feel that it's a bit unfair. " The Li family's head spoke first, his expression calm. His voice was indifferent. Clearly, he was extremely conflicted with the matter of the merger.1
"Head of the Li family, don't worry. Please tell us your thoughts." Shop Lord Wang raised his hand and made an inviting gesture.
"Since it's the merger of seventeen weapon stores, the execution rights will naturally be controlled by the seventeen families. According to the contract, the Profound Weapon Shop wants to cover the sky with one hand. This doesn't seem to be in accordance with the rules." The Lee family head said indifferently.
"That's right. In terms of profit, your Profound Weapon Shop will get sixty percent, while our sixteen weapon shops will only get forty percent. Isn't this too much?" The Loo family family head also spoke.
"You two, the profit index is the conclusion we came up with after the value and economic evaluation. There will definitely be no problem with this. If you don't believe me, you can check the detailed accounts."
"As for the issue of the execution rights, I don't think there will be any major dispute. Since you are the ones who have attached yourself to the Profound Weapon Shop, we naturally have the final say. If you have the final say, wouldn't this be a little unfair? " After hearing their words, Shop Lord Wang couldn't help but let out a cold laugh in his heart.
They had already seen the terms and conditions of the agreement, and they had already tacitly agreed to it. However, at the critical moment, they actually went back on their word. This made him feel somewhat impatient.
"Regarding the profit, perhaps we can still discuss it, but we must participate in the execution rights." The Li family's patriarch called out resolutely and decisively.
"Enforcing rights is a matter of principle. In this aspect, we will not make concessions." Shop Lord Wang took a deep breath and expressed his opinion.
"Humph, what is this called? You want to merge with us, but you are not willing to let go of your executability. Clearly, you want to enslave us. He said it, but he did it again. This is ridiculous."
"That's right. Although our scale isn't as big as the Profound Weapon Shop, we are still a complete organization. It's impossible for us to join you without any conditions. If you insist on such conditions... At most, we won't be joining you." The people brought by the sixteen Shop Lord merchants were all local assassins and valiant figures in the industry. They saw that the negotiations had reached a stalemate. They couldn't help yelling.
"Tch, that's not true. We are too lazy to accept you guys. You defeated people are already unable to do any business, yet you are still so arrogant. If you don't join us, you will be starved to death sooner or later. "
" That's right. We merged with you out of sympathy. Why can't you see it? You actually dare to ask for conditions boldly? I really don't know what face you have to open your mouth. " As the victor of the competition, the members of Profound Weapon Shop were naturally even angrier when they spoke.
"Hey, who are you talking about?"
"I'm talking about you. What's wrong?" As the noise grew louder and louder, the members of both parties began to rush forward to push and pull, causing the scene to become chaotic.
"Stop right now!"
Shop Lord Wang let out a loud shout. Because his shout carried telekinesis, when it entered the ears of everyone, it was like a large yellow bell, shaking their heads until they felt dizzy.
"No matter whether or not the discussion is finalized today, both sides are not allowed to have a direct confrontation. Today, no matter if the discussion is successful or not, both sides are not allowed to have a direct confrontation. Those who violate the rules of our Profound Weapon Shop will be severely punished. ” After Shop Lord Wang's words intimidated the crowd, he sat down on the seat of honor. He called out to the people below.
"Patriarchs, the Profound Weapon Shop is very sincere in cooperating with you all. However, regarding some principles, we will never waver. So, I hope you can understand. " When Shop Lord Wang's gaze returned to the crowd, his voice softened.
"We can't accept your sincerity. If you continue to insist that your branch is in charge of your own rights, perhaps we won't have anything to talk about." Those family heads looked at each other and said these words.
"Since Family Head Li said so, I will be frank with you. I can tell everyone that there are only two ways for you to go. The first is to cooperate with the Profound Weapon Shop and seek business interests together. The second is to be crushed by us. In the end, we'll end up in a miserable state... " A trace of dominance flashed across Shop Lord Wang's eyes when he said this.
"Shop Lord Wang has such big words!" The patriarch of Loo family narrowed his eyes.
"Our Profound Weapon Shop has dominated the Purple Town and has become the undisputed leader. This Shop Lord naturally has the right to say such words. " Shop Lord Wang sneered and raised his eyebrows at the sixteen family heads. "I will ask you one last time: Do you choose the first path, or the second path?
Seeing the domineering look on Shop Lord Wang's face gradually spread, the patriarchs looked at each other with determination. The patriarch of the Lee family, who was in the lead, sneered and pointed at Shop Lord Wang. He shouted, "The two paths you pointed at, we will not take either one. We will take the third path!"
"The third path?" Shop Lord Wang was stunned.
"That's right. From today onwards, our sixteen weapon stores will join the Heavenly Cauldron Pavilion and become a branch of the Heavenly Cauldron Pavilion in the Purple Town." Patriarch Li's words stunned Shop Lord Wang.
