Chapter 916: You can’t let down Long Feiye (2/2)

Hearing this, the various elders grew anxious. Even the best business deals only worked when the time, location, and social conditions were favorable. Good business relied on good locations, too.

A complicated look flickered past Han Yunxi’s eyes. Her gaze deepened as she studied Uncle Cheng.

Long Feiye wants to buy these gardens? Why didn’t he tell me? Even if he did, why would he buy them at such a high prince?

Is Uncle Cheng lying? Or is Long Feiye preparing a surprise for me? It would be better for her to ask him the truth tonight.

Han Yunxi took the two blueprints and intoned, “I’ll consider the issue overnight and give you all an answer tomorrow morning. Elders, you should all consider it carefully as well.”

Uncle Cheng smiled inwardly. These two gardens would be enough of a conundrum for Han Yunxi, so he didn’t have to think of ways to screw with the auction halls now.

Meanwhile, Han Yunxi had moved on to ask about the auction halls in question. The customer who was making a ruckus had already been locked up in Myriad Merchant Hall’s prisons for two days. The head elder made all the appropriate arrangements so that two versions of the same rumor were circulating around Three-Way Black Market.

One was that Myriad Merchant Hall had killed off the unsatisfied customer while refusing to admit they were selling fakes. The other was that Golden Wing Hall had kidnapped the customer while making things difficult for Myriad Merchant Hall in both the auction halls and the gambling house. They wanted to frame false charges!

Everything was progressing smoothly so far except for the customer, who refused to yield.

“Princess, could we...have made a mistake?” the head elder asked.

He had even used tortue, but the customer insisted that he was innocent in all this mess.

“No need for more interrogation, just raise him well,” Han Yunxi replied.

“Princess, it’s been six days since we’ve had any business in the auction halls. Last night, Old Liu brought out all ten of our most precious wares. There’s been plenty of viewers, but no one’s offered a price,” Second Elder said helplessly.

No matter how public opinion viewed them, all things would pass with time. The point was, they still had no business in the auction halls!

“You’ve all heard of Kangan Private Bank, right?” Han Yunxi asked simply.

Everyone’s eyes lit up at the words. Kangan was Cloud Realm Continent’s number one private bank. Its name was well-known, its background mysterious. Of the 10 limitless gold cards that existed in the world, five of them hailed from its coffers, including the one that Manager Jin had givenMu Linger. Apparently, its employees were already hunting him down.

“Why did princess bring up Kangan Private Bank?” the head elder asked, a little nervous.

“I’m planning to cooperate with Kangan Private Bank for our business at the auction halls, and its Manager Luo already agreed. However, I don’t know what you all feel about this?”

Everyone grew even more astonished from her words. It wasn’t the fact that she proposed working with the bank, but that Manager Luo had agreed. This meant that it would be an advantageous agreement--or in other words, their auction business could be saved! As a man in charge of such a large bank, Manager Luo was well known in their circles. Any business he approved of would succeed without fail!

The head elder was so moved that he blurted out, “Princess, it will all be as you say.”

“It’s still Myriad Merchant Hall’s business, so it’s more appropriate for the elders to make the decision,” Han Yunxi said humbly.

“Your Royal Highness is too modest. We are all loyal to West Qin, so we should all listen to the princess’s arrangements!” At Fifth Elder’s words, Head Elder was quick to chime in.

“The Council of Elders will listen to Your Royal Highness’s arrangements!”

Han Yunxi didn’t want their verbal promises, but command token of Myriad Merchant Hall’s Council of Elders. Without Ning Cheng here, this command token outclassed all of the other Council of Elders within the Di Clan. As long as the head elder was willing to hand over the item, then she would win.

There were still six days left in her deal with Long Feiye, so she was quite patient.

“Since that’s the case, then I’ll make sure not to disappoint you all,” Han Yunxi declared.

She then told them the details of the alliance with Kangan Private Bank. Both the elders and Uncle Cheng were stunned once again by Han Yunxi--this time deeply and thoroughly! Her method not only saved Long Feiye from suffering any losses, but would also save the auction halls!

So what was it?
