At Chu Yuan's words, the faces of the elders of the Infinite Trade Association immediately changed dramatically, even Elder Chen looked at Chu Yuan with surprise. He didn't expect Chu Yuan to be so tough, outright showing them the door. You must know that they are elders of the Infinite Trade Association, their status is prestigious, and even the one or two-star Imperial Dynasties would struggle to invite such figures. Their presence in Dawu was already showing great respect to Chu Yuan. "Actually, we still can negotiate." Elder Chen slightly frowned: "I have no objections if you want to refine a percentage of the agreed cut, but the materials of the Thousand Heart Elixer are precious. I have collected just a few dozen furnace's worth over decades, and I only have enough left for three more furnaces. The cost of failure is unbearable. As an alchemist, I also have some experience with this. If your country has a strong alchemy team, I can assist from the side." If it wasn't for his consecutive failures of more than ten furnaces, and learning that Dawu was able to produce divine elixer in large quantities through its cooperation with the Infinite Trade Association, he would not have come to a two-star imperial dynasty. "Give me the materials. You will definitely get the elixer. The refining process is confidential." Chu Yuan shook his head. "Forget it, I think he simply isn't sincere. Later, he could just make excuses saying that the refining failed, consume the materials, and we would still be in the dark. Elder Chen, I believe they simply don't have the ability to refine the Thousand Heart Elixir. Why waste our time with them!" Wu Xian says disdainfully. "Really, I can't even observe?" Elder Chen's tone became increasingly gloomy. "See the guests out." Chu Yuan said: "Since we can't agree, we won't keep you. It's a pity, you had the opportunity to get the Thousand Heart Elixer, but you've wasted it." "Besides the Thousand Heart Elixir, we can also talk about another trade." Elder Chen was very disappointed, he didn't place his hopes on Chu Yuan and said: "I've noticed that the Lingyuan Rice that your country consumes is very good. I would like to purchase some." His real purpose for coming this time was the Lingyuan Rice, not the elixer. "You have your eye on our Lingyuan Rice?" Chu Yuan said: "Of course. Whether it's medicinal materials, law crystals, or ore, as long as Dawu can use it, I'll accept all trades. With the help of your Infinite Trade Association's channels, I can deliver the first batch within two months." "One thing I need to add. I need the seeds to plant the rice, not the finished rice." Elder Chen added: "Of course, we absolutely will not short-change you when it comes to benefits." "Oh?" Chu Yuan smiled. "Our Infinite Trade Association is not short of anything." Elder Chen continued. "Well thought out. Coming to me under the pretext of alchemy, your actual goal is the seeds of the Lingyuan Rice. On this point, I will not agree. The finished rice can be supplied in large quantities, but no matter what price you pay, the seeds will not be available." Chu Yuan didn't hesitate and firmly rejected. What are the rice seeds? They are the true divine artifact of a country, enough to be passed down for thousands of generations. "Really, it's not possible?" He wasn't particularly concerned about the market of a two-star dynasty. "Originally, as long as you cooperated with Me, everything was negotiable. After all, I am happy to trade surplus supplies with you as long as it fulfills the needs of my Dawu people. Unfortunately, not only can you not get the Spirit Element Rice, you won't get this Heart Pill either." Chu Yuan glanced at them playfully, holding a pill full of a thousand tiny holes, smaller than a strand of hair, in his fingers. This was the Heart Pill. He had received many precious medicinal materials in the ancient city of Shang Kingdom, including a few ingredients for refining Heart Pills. "Heart Pill!" Elder Chen's breath became rapid. Suddenly he exclaimed, "How did you get a Heart Pill!" "Do I need to explain it to you?" Chu Yuan said with disdain. "Give me the Heart Pill, and I'll take back everything I said!" Elder Chen would never have thought that Chu Yuan had a ready-made Heart Pill. This was the elixir he had always dreamed of! "What's done cannot be undone. One can eat without caution, but one cannot speak without care." As Chu Yuan spoke, a domineering imperial power circled his imperial study. Elder Chen wanted to show his power of the Divine Light realm, but under this pressure, he felt an inability to direct his power. The madness in his eyes gradually subsided, realizing he couldn't take advantage of the situation in Dawu. "Well said, 'what's done cannot be undone!' I'll remember this," Elder Chen responded with resentment, "Let's go, we're leaving!" "We're just leaving like this?" Wu Xian seemed unwilling. "Go, from now on, Infinite Commerce will sever all trade with Dawu!" Elder Chen said coldly, "Ji Fuling, why aren't you leaving?" "I have something to say." Ji Fuling replied. "I know what you want to say. After you leave Dawu, I will place you in another two-star branch." Elder Chen replied. "I am very disappointed, greatly disappointed in you. Initially, this was to be a mutually beneficial trade, just like before when His Majesty and I collaborated for a long time, always very happily. But the arrogance of the elders terminated this delightful cooperation. This disappoints and frustrates me." Ji Fuling responded, looking disappointed. The great set-up that she had painstakingly arranged was ruined by these elders. She was very angry inside, feeling like her prized possession was being trampled and destroyed by others. "Are you questioning my decision?" Elder Chen said, displeased. "Since you have decided to shut down my Dawu branch, there is no reason for me to stay." Ji Fuling suddenly turned to Chu Yuan, "Your Majesty once promised that if I left Infinite Commerce, you would give me a position in charge of logistics and supply. I wonder if this promise still holds?"
