Wang Shouzhe’s eyes narrowed slightly, but he didn’t show much surprise. His expression remained calm and composed, "Let’s not rush for now; continue observing the situation for a few more days. As for those customers who want to return their goods, just follow the procedure to arrange the returns."Jiang Jian Mu was worried and hesitated to speak, but he still accepted the order and left to handle the task.
"Mu Xian should also go for cultivation; don’t get beaten again tonight," Wang Shouzhe said with a smile.
Jiang Mu Xian shivered at the thought of the consequences if he didn’t make progress today and hurriedly left to focus on his cultivation.
After everyone had left.
Wang Shouzhe finally said, "Tiange, what do you think?"
Yun Tiange emerged from the shadows and walked to Wang Shouzhe’s side, "It must be Prince Wen Yu making a move. Currently lowering prices by twenty percent is probably just a probe."
"The first step is to engage in a price war." Wang Shouzhe smiled, "It didn’t deviate from my expectations after all."
"If we’re talking about tactics, I still admire your strategies, Young Master Shouzhe," Yun Tiange praised, "First, you acted arrogant, displaying an unrestrained personality, then took the opportunity to let him know you had the Sacred Supreme’s protection backing you. Naturally, this made Prince Wen Yu hesitate, not daring to resolve the issue through martial power."
In Yun Tiange’s view, had Prince Wen Yu truly chosen to use force behind the scenes, the current strength of the Holy Domain Development Bureau would have struggled to manage it comprehensively without issues arising.
As a prince and local power, the forces he could mobilize should not be underestimated.
Yet, after Wang Shouzhe’s performance, he quelled Prince Wen Yu’s inclination to use force. Without resorting to force, only the regular commercial strategy remained as a route. At that time, no matter how brutally Wang Shouzhe was beaten in business, it would only show his incompetence.
What Prince Wen Yu might never have dreamed of was that commercial warfare was one of the Wang family’s most skilled areas.
Wang Shouzhe’s maneuver was akin to first drawing his opponent into his field of expertise and then using that domain advantage to crush the adversary.
"Since Prince Wen Yu has chosen to act," Wang Shouzhe pondered for a moment, then couldn’t help but show a smile, "our Holy Domain Development Bureau cannot let the prince down either."
From the moment Wang Shouzhe decided to sell grain to the Sacred Domain, he knew this day would arrive sooner or later.
The cake is only so big, and when their Divine Martial Development Bureau profit, inevitably, others’ interests are harmed.
Faced with such a situation, it naturally comes down to individual ability.
In the following days, the grain price in the Tianrui Saint Dynasty dropped a little every day, occasionally stabilizing for a while, only to drop again soon. But the more this happened, the more no one dared to purchase grain. Who knows if the price will continue to drop tomorrow?
Observance emotions grew rapidly, causing grain transactions to plummet dramatically, plunging the entire grain market into a slump.
...
Divine Treasure Hall’s Tianrui Sub-Hall.
As a super commercial organization with businesses spread across the Eastern Dawn God Continent, the Tianrui branch of the Divine Treasure Hall, in terms of scale, didn’t fall short of any Immortal Clan’s main residence. Due to having the headquarters as support, it even surpassed many.
However, at this moment, Dongfang Zhenyuan, the branch master of the Divine Treasure Hall’s Tianrui branch, was pacing back and forth in his luxuriously decorated study.
As the hall master of the Divine Treasure Hall’s branch, he had weathered countless storms and dealt with innumerable thorny issues over the years. Logically, very few things should cause him distress anymore.
But right now, his expression was somewhat grave, seeming to show hesitance.
The reason for his dilemma was simple: the recently-renowned Wang Shouzhe had just arrived at the branch with the Divine Treasure Hall’s Distinguished Guest’s Order, requesting a meeting with him, Dongfang Zhenyuan.
Under normal circumstances, Dongfang Zhenyuan would naturally welcome him gladly, doing his utmost to extend a warm reception and fulfilling the Distinguished Guest’s Order holder’s requests within the rules of the Divine Treasure Hall.
However, the current situation was a bit unusual. The grain price-drop turmoil was stirring a commotion in the Tianrui Holy City, with the decline spreading across the entire Sacred Dynasty’s territory, soon even affecting nearby Immortal Dynasties.
The ordinary people couldn’t understand why this was happening.
But the well-informed Dongfang Zhenyuan had already received information, knowing it was due to a dismayed meeting between Prince Wen Yu and Wang Shouzhe, sparking this commercial battle.
This single clash had set off a storm throughout the Tianrui Saint Dynasty, creating an atmosphere of tension.
Among the several princes of the Tianrui Saint Dynasty, Prince Wen Yu had gained significant popularity over the years, surpassing other candidates and holding a considerable possibility of ascending to the Saint Emperor’s position in the future.
Though it’s merely a possibility and not a certainty, Dongfang Zhenyuan naturally didn’t wish to offend Prince Wen Yu if there was a choice.
Similarly, he didn’t wish to offend the mysteriously-backgrounded and promising Wang Shouzhe.
From the outset, Dongfang Zhenyuan had decided to maintain a neutral stance.
And now, Wang Shouzhe sought to meet him, likely over the grain commercial battle issue.
This matter he neither could agree to nor reject too bluntly, risking offending Wang Shouzhe. He needed to craft a response that would allow him to decline Wang Shouzhe’s request for assistance using the Distinguished Guest’s Order without harming relations.
After all, being an experienced businessman, it didn’t take long for Dongfang Zhenyuan to devise a plan in his mind, then he hurriedly put on a pretense of arriving hastily as he stepped into the reception hall.
