Chapter 289: Consequences of being arrogant
The Miracle Commerce Imperial City headquarters was the great scholar Gu Qianqiu’s manor.
This was a special reward given to the great scholar by the Southern Summer King for all the contributions he had made towards the Southern Summer Country.It was only inferior to the royal palace and the Three Rulers’ manors, and it could only be bigger than the Central State headquarters.
Gu Qianqiu was not used to staying in this large manor, but to settle the Meng sisters as soon as possible, he had vacated the manor and turned it into the Miracle Commerce Imperial City headquarters.
It was because of this.
The people of the Imperial City knew that the great scholar was related to Miracle Commerce, so when Miracle Commerce entered the city and did many things resolutely, there were few people who stopped them and even though it went against the benefit of many people, they still encountered minimal resistance.
Today was Meng Qingwu’s birthday.
The vice chairman of Miracle Commerce was not simple, able to open up a place for Miracle Commerce in Imperial City in less than two months.Although she was related to the great scholar, it was also related to her own skills. If she were swapped for an average manager, they wouldn’t have even accomplished a fourth of what she had!
Like today, Miracle Commerce’s products filled Imperial City.
Meng Qingwu had become a goddess in the hearts of the Imperial City people!
A nation collapsing beautiful young girl, not only had shocking wealth, also had an astonishing ability.Being able to have a wife like Meng Qingwu was now the most popular phrase among the Imperial City citizens.
This was just the beginning.
With Miracle Commerce’s potential, this made Miracle Commerce unstoppable and they would soon be the most outstanding company in the Southern Summer Country.Because of this, Meng Qingwu’s birthday was not simple. This gave countless people a chance and a reason to get closer to Meng Qingwu, so they came to give generous gifts.
Meng Qingwu had just arrived, so she had no choice but to give these local tyrants face.
When Meng Qingwu had the chance to stand firm, these people would not even have a chance to flatter her.
When Chu Tian arrived at Miracle Commerce, he was satisfied with their headquarters, “This house is much more luxurious than the one in Central State, it isn’t that far from the royal palace.”
This was a manor built from nine palaces, with an area that was 50% bigger than Central State City’s headquarters.There was also much more space inside. Even if ten thousand people were to live here, there would be room to spare and wouldn’t feel crowded at all.
This was enough to satisfy the needs of a large scale developing company!
Nangong Yun said disdainfully, “Elder sister Qingwu is not only smart, but she is very hardworking, personally taking care of everything.She’s not like those people whose shadows can’t be seen all day!”
“Are you criticizing your boss, me?You’re mistaken if you say this.” Chu Tian said in a thick faced manner, “Am I being lazy deliberately?Aren’t I intentionally leaving things for you to do to strengthen your position in the company? You have to understand your boss’ compassion, I need to protect you from rumours and also carve out a stage for you.”
Nangong Yun rolled her eyes and was disinclined to speak to this fellow, “What are we standing here for?After travelling for half a month, we can finally get something good to eat! Let’s go!”
The three of them walked up and a guard stopped them, “Stop, do you have an invitation?”
“What?Actually asking if I have an invitation!”Chu Tian walked forward while patting his face, “Please open your eyes.The handsome face in front of you is my entrance pass!”
The guard’s face turned black with anger.The outer guards of Miracle Commerce were recruited in Imperial City.They were all set by the great scholar and the Calm Martial Ruler, so it was normal for them to not have seen Chu Tian.Nangong Yun quickly came up and took out a token from her waist, “Do you recognize this?”
“Ah, this is…….”
The guard’s faces changed.
This was a Miracle Commerce high level personnel token, the second miss Yingying also had one, so these people were at the same level as Meng Yingying.The guards quickly moved to the side and respectfully asked the three of them in.
Chu Tian was very depressed.
Fuck, this is my own territory!
But seeing these guards, each with their strong builds and decent strength, it seemed like Miracle Commerce’s strength in Imperial City was not small!
Miracle Commerce’s headquarters was already filled with people, with the staff running around to entertain the guests.At this time, the banquet had already started with source energy chefs cooking a feast and waiters bringing the food in.
“Quickly look!”Nangong Yun looked to the side and said in pleasant surprise, “Isn’t that Yingying and elder sister Qingwu?”
The three of them looked over andfound the Meng sisters standing in the middle of the hall.The two of them looked very formal as they received all the guests that came.After not seeing the sisters for a month, they seemed thinner, but the colour of their faces was still good, showing that they had made progress in their cultivation.
“Heavenly Cloud Commerce sends a portion of ten thousand year old amethyst!”
“The Zhao Family patriarch sends a secretly refined Beauty Pill!”
“……”
The countless gifts were like snowflakes as they floated into the main hall, forming a small hill.Chu Tian was stunned seeing all of this. How could there be this many gifts just for a birthday? It even made him want to host one!
Before the three of them could head over.
Suddenly, a voice resounded out, “The Wang Family’s young master Wang Yuan sends ten boxes of precious sea pearls, a hundred pieces of thousand year gold thread silk, and a tamed dragon beast carriage…..in order to congratulate young miss Meng Qingwu on her birthday!”
The crowd fell into an uproar.
Such a large gift!
Was there a need to give this much for a single birthday celebration?
Meng Qingwu slightly knit her brows, not seeming very happy.However, she restored her expression and said with a courteous smile, “Thank you young master Wang Yuan!”
“Ha, ha, ha!”Wang Yuan was a suave looking young man who seemed younger than Meng Qingwu, being only around seventeen-eighteen years old.From his followers and temperament, he clearly came from a large family, “Our visit today isn’t just to congratulate the vice chairman on her birthday, but also for another important matter.The matter today could be considered a double blessing.”
The Wang Family had a strong influence in Imperial City.
This was a large family of the kingdom, only being inferior to the Three Great Clans.
Meng Qingwu was not fond of this family, but they had a strong influence, so she couldn’t easily move against them.She was a smart person, so while the Wang Family was being overbearing, she would first use courtesy before force. The matter that followed would surely be an awkward matter for them.
“How about young master Wang talk about this matter after the feast?”
“No, no!This matter must be known by everyone!”Wang Yuan shook his head, not letting Meng Qingwu avoid this topic, “My family has already agreed to let me marry young miss Meng Yingying!”
With this sentence.
The crowd was in an uproar.
The Meng sisters were shocked.
