Under the relentless speed of the ship, Tang Tian and his companions arrived in Gu Li City a day early.

It was still early, so they didn't contact Qi Bin and instead wandered around the city.

This was a comprehensive metropolis, occupying a large area, with many cultivators and a large number of mortals living here as well.

Upon entering the city gate, a strong smell of fireworks immediately hit them, and the streets were filled with continuous shouts.

"Tofu~~mo! Hot mo, call me when you're hungry!"

"Wo wo tou~ four for one yuan~ hehe!"

"Spinach on sale, spinach on sale, spinach, spinach! On sale!!"

"Who wants sweet sugarcane, so sweet~~ so sweet! It'll make two people sweet to death, damn it..."

Various voices filled their ears, making Tang Tian feel like he had returned to the alley full of fireworks.

He didn't care about the gazes of others either. When he saw something he wanted to eat, he would buy it directly. He walked down the street, munching on sugarcane, and even found a small stall selling tofu pudding, where he showed off by eating several bowls.

This different approach left Qin Hai and Chi Yuan dumbfounded.

"Young master, these things here are all mundane items. The area for cultivators is in the inner city," Qin Hai said.

Tang Tian buried his head and slurped his soy milk, saying, "What's wrong with mundane items? As long as they taste good."

"No rush, let's eat our fill first."

After that, Tang Tian strolled around this snack street, stuffing a bunch of delicious things into his storage ring.

It was almost like going shopping.

However, in the end, when he calculated, all the things added up to less than ten low-grade spirit stones.

The currency of the mortal world was still in the realm of gold, silver, and copper.

In the afternoon, Tang Tian's enthusiasm gradually waned, and he arrived at the inner city of Gu Li City.

Qin Hai was right. This was the true world of cultivators. People came and went on the streets, almost all of them cultivators of different realms.

The shops on both sides of the main street were mostly selling spiritual items that were useful for cultivation.

Tang Tian casually entered a few shops, but quickly lost interest.

The grades were too low, and they didn't have much effect. Even if he bought out the entire street, it would cost at most a few billion spirit stones.

This small amount of money didn't even pique his interest now.

"The closer to the city center, the more prosperous it becomes," Qin Hai said.

Tang Tian nodded. The headquarters of the Tengyun Chamber of Commerce was also in the city center.

After walking for a while, the surroundings gradually began to change, and the density of spiritual energy became almost as strong as the upper half of Qingyue Gate.

Here, he also saw more luxurious high-rise buildings and some unusually large shops.

Tang Tian casually entered a few and bought some interesting things.

But he didn't buy much. He didn't need that much consumption now, and if he spent too much at once, it would attract attention.

When you're away from home, it's better to keep a low profile.

"Guest, you've emptied half of our store..."

Tang Tian: ...

Why is he so wasteful?

Time flew by as they wandered around.

By the time they arrived at the headquarters of the Tengyun Chamber of Commerce, it was already evening.

Qin Hai had already informed Qi Bin, and he was waiting at the door.

"Master Tang!"

Seeing Tang Tian's arrival, Qi Bin greeted him with a happy face.

Then, under his lead, Tang Tian and his companions entered the inner chambers of the chamber of commerce, which were specially used to entertain distinguished guests.

After some pleasantries, Qi Bin began to explain the specific process of tomorrow's equity meeting to Tang Tian.

"Some of the equity this time is voluntarily transferred by the old shareholders, while the rest is entrusted to the chamber of commerce for sale due to certain circumstances."

"The part that is being transferred has already been agreed upon in advance, so our main target is the freely traded equity."

"Approximately around four trillion million."

Qi Bin said.

Tang Tian frowned slightly. He had originally thought that he could trade for seventy trillion yuan, but it turned out to be just over half.

It's a little less than expected, but it's still acceptable.

If he could successfully trade for all of it, the Divine Grade talent and the Divine Grade physique would all be within his grasp.

"Forty trillion yuan, can we take it all?" Tang Tian asked.

Qi Bin was taken aback and asked, "Master Tang, do you intend to take it all?"

Tang Tian nodded.

Qi Bin was surprised, seemingly not expecting Tang Tian to make such a big move.

After thinking for a moment, he smiled bitterly and said, "Taking it all might be a bit difficult."

"As you know, Duke Du is also participating in this equity conference, and I estimate his budget to be between ten trillion and fifteen trillion yuan."

"And besides him, there are about ten trillion yuan of equity that others have set their sights on."

"Taking all these into account, your trading space should be between fifteen trillion and twenty trillion yuan."

Tang Tian couldn't help but raise an eyebrow.

Why is it getting less and less?

Without twenty trillion yuan, he even felt that it might not be worth the risk to go on this trip.

"Isn't it a free bidding? How can others take it away?" Tang Tian asked.

Qi Bin explained, "Although it's free equity, the relationships within the Tengyun Chamber of Commerce are very complicated."

"Some people have been planning for a long time and have already negotiated a portion, so this situation has arisen."

Tang Tian suddenly realized that they had made connections.

But often, these so-called connections are the most unreliable.

Once the interests are sufficient, Tang Tian believed that some people would be willing to lean towards his side.

After thinking for a moment, Tang Tian pondered, "You've been in the Tengyun Chamber of Commerce for many years, so you should have your own channels, right?"

Qi Bin smiled and said, "Of course."

"Although I'm not as influential as those senior executives, I still have my own circle."

"Master Tang, what do you mean..."

Tang Tian nodded, "That's right."

"I want to buy as much of the Chamber of Commerce's equity as possible."

"If you can help me with that, I will be greatly thankful."

Qi Bin pondered for a moment and said, "Although it's a bit late now, it's not impossible to do."

"However, if you really want to do this, you will have to spend more spirit jade."

Snatching from others will inevitably require a higher price.

But as long as it's within the system's allowed range, there's no problem at all.

After thinking for a moment, Tang Tian asked, "How much of a premium?"

Qi Bin replied, "For the easier ones, the premium will be between fifty to eighty percent."

"For the more determined ones, it will probably be around twenty to thirty percent."

"If it goes higher, I feel like it's not necessary."

Tang Tian nodded slightly.

Based on his experience from so many trades, he already knew that the system's bottom line for normal trades was around a fifty percent premium.

So, this kind of thing is completely within the acceptable range.

Tang Tian lightly tapped the table with his finger and said, "I can accept anything within a forty percent premium."

"You don't have to deliberately lower the price, as long as it doesn't exceed forty percent, I'll take it all."

Qi Bin looked stunned.

He had thought that Tang Tian would at most compete for voting rights.

However, seeing his actions, perhaps it wasn't as simple as he had imagined...

"I will do my best!" Qi Bin said earnestly.
