Capítulo 910: Chapter 344 Win-Win Negotiation (6k)

So it has come!

A gleam flashed in Bai Yi’s eyes. After such a long setup, with resources prepared for her in advance, this was probably one of their main objectives for this visit!

Heh, but all of this was within my calculations with Shang Ji, and I was already prepared…

It seemed like they were inquiring about the two Pharmacists, but in reality, they were testing her to see if she would step back or if she was unsatisfied with the current situation and wanted more.

No need to think; the three major civilizations would prefer the former. It’s true that they wanted to weaken the two Pharmacists’ previously large influence, but they also didn’t want to see another similar power rise.

Once the two Pharmacists were gone, her business would be the only one, and it would take an even greater resolve to abandon it than before.

They didn’t want the two Pharmacists to make a comeback and regain their former influence, nor did they want this new Pharmacist, taking advantage of being the only one, to climb to a higher position.

It seemed the best outcome was for the two Pharmacists to linger on as her balance of power.

In other words, the three major civilizations wanted to protect her enemies in her hands, and have her personally admit it, allowing the two Pharmacists to become her counterbalance.

The resources promised earlier were just a pre-compensation for this.

And if she showed more ambition…

The likelihood was high that she wouldn’t lose the initial resources, but aside from these resources, there might be all sorts of suppression from the shadows.

Returning a smiling expression, any explanation was unnecessary compared to giving them a straightforward answer they wanted:

“Rest assured, as long as they don’t trouble me, I promise not to initiate against them.

After all, regardless of whether I can deal with an 8th Rank right now, with you stepping in to protect them, I can’t make a move, right?”

But if they cause trouble for me first, and then are so weak they happen to die by my rightful self-defense, it’s not her fault…

Bai Yi added in her heart.

“Haha, what are you saying, Miss Fan Mao? Those two Pharmacists are the acknowledged participants from behind the scenes, enemies to all Transcendents of the Starry Sky.

How could we possibly protect them?

Since Miss Fan Mao has made her intentions clear, we’ll resolve those unfavorable rumors for you…”

The Radiant Envoy shook his head in denial of his protection claim, but what he truly thought was uncertain.

Nevertheless, Bai Yi felt he was satisfied with her answer.

Both of them had a spark of shrewdness flash in their eyes, and they tacitly moved past the topic.

The Radiant Envoy glanced sideways at the people from the Gemini and Saien factions before continuing:

“Speaking of which, since the two former Pharmacists have become enemies to the Transcendent, the Potion Market they left behind is completely vacant now.

Would Miss Fan Mao be willing to take it over?”

“That’s right, and once the Potion Market controlled by those two’s followers becomes vacant, it will significantly impact the lower-level Transcendents. As the current Starry Sky Transcendent representative, Miss Fan Mao wouldn’t want to see this, right?

Our Gemini Empire is willing to lend a hand, providing policy and channel support, even offering retail channels to help Miss Fan Mao quickly capture this market, in return for only twenty percent of the profits.”

The Gemini Envoy quickly chimed in, and Saien was not far behind, following with their own proposals:

“We Saien can offer the same support, even assist Miss Fan Mao in exploring more markets while providing more business for your followers.

You might have heard of the Saien [Commercial Union], and should know [Commercial Union] possesses this capability!”

The Saien envoy displayed strong confidence; he was a formal member within the Commercial Union, as well as a true [Order] believer.

Before deciding to come, the Commercial Union had already granted him permission internally, giving him the ability to make such a promise.

Using the resources of the Commercial Union, giving away a portion of business was merely a drop in the ocean for the entire union.

Their deep integration with the Saien Civilization not only manifested as the Commercial Union gaining the backing of a top-tier civilization, but they also made contributions for Saien.

This grand spending spree immediately attracted glances from the Gemini envoy, but with his peer already upping the ante, he had no choice but to follow suit.

Clenching his teeth, he added, “We Gemini can also offer a portion of our internal resource quotas to you.”

As soon as he finished speaking, he noticed the Saien envoy shrugging without continuing to raise, making him realize he had been tricked.

Damn, played by this guy again!

Hmph, and the Radiant people didn’t even give a warning, probably laughing inside, pointing at them spending lavishly against each other while remaining unscathed!

Giving both of them a fierce glare, he got a smug look back from the Radiant Envoy, making the Gemini envoy even more frustrated.

The most frustrating part was, he couldn’t refute it!

After all, Miss Fan Mao had developed in the Radiant’s territory, needing no resources to be invited.

Although this invitation was part of the plan, it was genuine collaboration.

When they and Saien each cooperated with the Pharmacists, they had left Radiant out, and now it’s good enough that Radiant didn’t hinder their cooperation invitation.

After pondering it over, he finally aimed his gaze at the Saien people.
