Gu Immortal, Gu Gu Gu Gu Gu Gu

"The Snow Mountain Alliance has changed its attitude repeatedly in just two days. It has even purchased our goods on such a large scale. Could this be related to the mysterious dark gold cloud a few days ago?" The members of the Chamber of Commerce had some guesses in their minds, but they had no sense of security at all.

After all, this is not pure free trade.

If they believed this false appearance and came to the grassland with their entire family next time, but were turned away, the loss they would suffer could be imagined.

"It seems that we still cannot escape the control of merchants. Without the support of merchants, coupled with the attack on the Snow Mountain Alliance by the strong, if we want to go to the grassland to do business, we will undoubtedly face the risk of losing all our money."

The members of the Chamber of Commerce calculated privately that although both parties were happy with the transaction and they made profits several times the cost, it was worth noting that they did not get a single grassland Yuanshi, and the most traded commodity was actually grassland wolf Gu.

This means that the grasslands can handle this transaction with ease and no longer need to use hard currency for trade, which is definitely not good news for the Merchant Alliance.

Once this news spreads back to the State of Yan, those who are dreaming of getting rich will wake up and realize that the grassland is not as barren and backward as they imagined. I am afraid that it will also indirectly affect the status of the Chamber of Commerce.

"What exactly happened? The Snow Mountain Alliance is actually richer than the previous grassland forces, but why don't we see any Yuanshi? They are even unwilling to trade Yuanmi with the Merchant Alliance."

Song Zhilan observed the entire transaction. As the leader of the Blood Demon Cult, she was naturally familiar with trade.

She originally thought that the Chamber of Commerce would take the absolute initiative, but the reality was more like two countries with similar civilizations engaging in friendly trade.

This abnormal phenomenon indirectly reveals the true strength of the Snow Mountain Alliance.

If the Chamber of Commerce had arrived a few years later, they might have discovered that the Snow Mountain Alliance had grown into a country comparable to the State of Yan.

"Who is the person behind the Snow Mountain Alliance and where is he hiding?" Song Zhilan became curious.

She wore a fur hood and scanned the snow-capped mountains and buildings around her with sharp eyes, trying to explore the true core and uncover the form of civilization constructed by the people behind the scenes.

"This trade will last for about two days. We need to return to the clan immediately to prepare the goods you need. You can rest here for a while and receive other members of the Chamber of Commerce and learn the trading rules." After the elder of the Black Mountain Clan finished his instructions, he handed over the affairs to the Snow Mountain Clan and led his people to leave leisurely.

"I spent months crafting this precious sword, but I only got a second-level wolf poison in exchange. This price is too low."

"Stop complaining. Haven't you seen the treasure-hunting rat of Zhang family in Gunzhou? It is worth 5,000 yuan stones in Kyoto, but here it can only be exchanged for a first-level wolf Gu. Its value has plummeted by more than ten times."

"The small caravans still make more money. They can exchange picture albums and books for good items."

"The Southern Xinjiang Scenery Records is selling like hot cakes. I will definitely ask the writer to copy more copies when I get back."

After the big customer left, the members of the business alliance gathered together to complain.

It turns out that the Snow Mountain people are not interested in gorgeous items and finely crafted works of art, but practical farm tools and blueprints can be sold at high prices.

Therefore, some people make a lot of money, while others only make a small profit, which is far from expectations, so naturally they want to talk about it.

"The goods carried by the Merchant Alliance are all of high quality, but they still cannot please the Snow Mountain People? I think the Nalan family is very careful and must have dumped them many times on the grassland."

"Brother, what you said makes sense. We were able to sell the goods this time thanks to the support of the two ladies of the Snow Mountain Clan. If it weren't for the two ladies' words, we would have returned empty-handed and worked in vain."

The members of the Chamber of Commerce gathered together. Each of them was extremely intelligent, and it was natural that they were extraordinary as they came all the way from the State of Yan.

They easily saw through the goodwill shown by the Snow Mountain Clan. They were grateful for the favor, but at the same time they couldn't help feeling dissatisfied with the Nalan Family, whom they had never met.

"The Nalan family monopolized the profits and left the problems to us. They watched us get into trouble but did nothing. Isn't this mocking us?"

"We should ask Miss Shang Er to seek justice. We can't just let this matter go."

They went through untold hardships and traveled thousands of miles in order to gain huge profits.

Now, not only did they not gain any benefits, but they also owed favors. How could the Chamber of Commerce swallow this?

"We must find out the truth. How can we allow the Lan family to enjoy the benefits of this vast grassland alone?"

The members of the Merchant Alliance were filled with righteous indignation. They had both strength and background, and should not be afraid of a family that had risen in a small border town.

"Please calm down, everyone!"

Just when everyone was about to vent their dissatisfaction, Song Zhilan stepped forward and stopped their actions.

“Ms. Song, you didn’t ship much this time. This is also a trick of the Nalan family. Why are you stopping us?”

Many people in the Chamber of Commerce recognized Song Zhilan. Although they did not know her identity as the leader of the Blood Demon Cult, they knew that she was the leader sent by the Qin Palace.

"Precisely because we don't ship much, we shouldn't cause trouble for the Nalan family." Song Zhilan shook her head regretfully. Her words puzzled everyone.

"We are here to the grassland not only to sell our overstocked goods, but more importantly to build friendship with the grassland alliance. Although we have encountered difficulties in the sales process, we have made progress in building friendship. Do you agree?"

Song Zhilan smiled and tried her best to comfort everyone with words.

After all, from the King of Qin's point of view, the Nalan clan will eventually be under the King of Qin's rule.

If it is not stopped at this time, it will undoubtedly lay hidden dangers for the future.

“That’s true, but what’s the point of having a grand goal if you can’t fill your stomach?”

Members of the Chamber of Commerce put their interests first and put face issues aside for the time being.

"You all have misunderstood. Not only can we sell goods to the grassland, we can also purchase grassland specialties and ship them back to Yan State for sale. This is an aboveboard transaction and we should not give up this advantage."

Song Zhilan's words gradually calmed the emotions of the business alliance members.

"Miss Song is right. If we make a big fuss about this, I'm afraid that the people in Yan will think that our business alliance is no match for a family in a small border town. Besides, goods from the grassland are indeed scarce in Yan. For example, the skin of a complete Gu beast is of extraordinary value."

Some members of the Chamber of Commerce who regretted acting alone chose to support Song Zhilan at this moment.

They knew very well that following the footsteps of the Qin Palace meant standing with the Shang merchants, the Empress and other forces.

However, this angered some people who were eager to break free from the control of merchants. Although they did not express their dissatisfaction in person, they would most likely take small actions in private.

But as of now, everyone still has a lot of goods left in their hands, so they can only turn their attention to some small clans in the Snow Mountain Alliance.

Such as those recently recruited by Yuan Hao and others, as well as small clans who fled here spontaneously.

In their haste to move forward, they had no choice but to slaughter many of their livestock and only carry away high-quality furs.

These furs were very popular in the State of Yan, so free trade was extremely active in the next two days.

The Snow Mountain Alliance only came forward to greet and trade with new caravans when they arrived, and then transferred most of the goods and profits to the small clans.

Four days later, the economic conditions of some small clans that originally had no foothold in the Snow Mountain Alliance improved.
