Chapter 367: The Plan Begins, Interrogating Zhou Muchun

Translator: 549690339

Setting up a Chamber of Commerce in this city was equivalent to slapping the three major Chambers of Commerce in the face.

On the day that the Longyue Merchant Association opened for business, the branch presidents of the three major merchant associations received the news.

In the meeting hall of the Royal Chamber of Commerce controlled by Dynasty, Branch Chairman Chu Ge sat on a mahogany chair and knocked on the table beside him with a smile.

The elders sitting on the right and left of Pavilion Chu were sitting on their chairs, waiting for Pavilion Chu to lecture them.

“Why, no one said anything?” Pavilion Chu suddenly asked.

Hearing Pavilion Chu’s words, the elders looked at each other and then turned their attention to the branch’s First Elder.

Seeing this, the branch’s First Elder Liu Mo stood up and cupped his hands.”Guild Master, do you think we should keep our stance?”

“Oh?” Pavilion Chu narrowed his eyes and smiled.””Why do you have to deal with all changes with the same attitude?”

” It’s like this,” Liu Mo explained.” Since this Longyue Merchant Association dares to establish a merchant association in Sun City, there are only two outcomes.”

“Firstly, the founder of this merchant association is a fool. The Yu Clan Merchant Association will naturally destroy the Longyue Merchant Association. After all, the things sold by this Chamber of Commerce are the contents sold by the Yu Clan Chamber of Commerce…”

“The second possibility is that the founder of this Chamber of Commerce is not an idiot. “Since he’s not a fool and still dared to establish it in Sun City, it means that he must have the confidence that we don’t know about.”

“If it’s really the second possibility, then we shouldn’t make a move. In any case, the Longyue Merchant Association doesn’t affect our interests. Let the Yu Clan Merchant Association have a headache.”

“After the Yu Clan Chamber of Commerce has thoroughly investigated the Longyue Chamber of Commerce, we will consider the strength of their trump cards and consider whether we should participate.”

“Regardless of whether we participate or not, the best plan now is to remain unchanged.”

Great Elder Liumo told Pavilion Chu and the other elders what he had thought of.

After hearing the First Elder’s words, the elders nodded in agreement.

After all, this has nothing to do with us, so why should we act as pawns for the Yu Chamber of Commerce?

“Wonderful! Wonderful! Wonderful!”

” Great!” Pavilion Chu exclaimed. Then, she looked at the elders and said,” Everyone, no matter who from the Yu Chamber of Commerce is looking for you, don’t be in a hurry to agree.”

“Let the Yu Clan Chamber of Commerce have a headache over this Longyue Chamber of Commerce.”

“If you want us to take action, you have to at least investigate this Longyue Merchant Association thoroughly.”

“Alright, everyone go do your own things.”

While the Royal Chamber of Commerce was discussing this matter, the Yuan Clan Chamber of Commerce, which was located in the north of Yang City and was created by the alliance of powers, was also discussing this matter.

Gu Mu, who was then the Yang City branch president of the Yuan Clan Chamber of Commerce, also sought the opinions of the elders in the Yuan Clan Chamber of Commerce branch.

“President, I don’t think this has anything to do with us. Why should we get involved?”

“That’s right. It’s said that the three chambers of commerce are helping each other out, but every time something happens here, those two chambers of commerce are just watching the show.”

“Now that they have a problem, why should we get involved?”

“Third Elder’s words are correct. That Yu Clan Chamber of Commerce is about to become the little brother of the Royal Chamber of Commerce. Now that there’s a problem, let his big brother resolve it.”

The elders of the Yuan Consortium’s merchants discussed this matter and came to a consensus, which was to ignore it.

Due to the conflict between Dynasty and the alliance, the merchant associations created by the two factions were not on good terms with each other.

They might stand together on major matters, but on small matters, let alone helping, if they didn’t cause trouble, the higher-ups of the Chamber of Commerce would forget about it.

As for the Yu Chamber of Commerce, although it was said to be a chamber of commerce that stood side by side with the two major chambers of commerce, in reality, it had already completely sided with the Royal Chamber of Commerce. It was no different from a subordinate of the Royal Chamber of Commerce.

Now that something had happened to the Yu Conglomerate, the Yuan Conglomerate was even more unwilling to help.

After hearing the elder’s words, Yuan Clan Chamber of Commerce’s Branch President Gu Mu waved his hand, signaling for everyone to quiet down.

After it was completely quiet, Gu Mu slowly said,”I understand what everyone means, but this is ultimately a matter between the three major merchant associations.”

“How about this, if the Yu Chamber of Commerce comes knocking on your door, you can just tell them that you want our help, but you must find out the background of the Longyue Chamber of Commerce.”

“I don’t believe that there isn’t a powerful force behind the Longyue Merchant Association.”

“As for after we figure it out, we have to judge whether it is feasible to offend that major power.”

“Anyway, it didn’t affect our business. If we can avoid offending the big powers, then we won’t.”

“Yes, sir!” The elders replied in unison.

The two Chambers of Commerce were discussing this matter peacefully. However, the Yu Clan Chamber of Commerce was no longer as peaceful. “Investigate! Go and investigate!”

“Which faction dares to come here and compete with my Yu Chamber of Commerce for business?”

Yang Mo, the president of the Yang City branch of the Yu Chamber of Commerce, was currently raging at his own elder.

In Yang Mo’s eyes, the establishment of the Longyue Chamber of Commerce was a slap in the face, a blatant slap to the Yu Clan Chamber of Commerce’s face!

As the branch president of the Yu Chamber of Commerce, this was no different from slapping Yang Mo’s own face. How could he not be furious?

The Elders at the side hurriedly took action. On one hand, as members of the Yu Chamber of Commerce, they also felt humiliated.

On the other hand, he didn’t want to endure Yang Mo’s roar.

Soon, only the Great Elder and Yang Mo were left in the meeting hall.

At this moment, the anger on Yang Mo’s face had disappeared.. He said calmly,”Great Elder, do you think the other two chambers of commerce are behind this?”
