Chapter 58 - 58 Assault of Fang Yuan!?_l
Each province of the Dragon Rising Federation possesses its own distinct geographical features and cultural sentiment.
Based on differences in temperature and terrain, each province offers its unique specialities.
Just as one can sample local delicacies from all corners of the country in the Capital, the Capital is also home to Beast Masters from various places.
The headquarters of the Ten Thousand Treasures Commerce is situated in the Capital, a place teeming with opportunities and adventures.
In the Capital, there are many commerce associations.
The Ten Thousand Treasures Commerce is considered to be mid-tier amongst them.
Thanks to its relentless efforts over the past decade, the Ten Thousand
Treasures Commerce has managed to win over a subset of Senior Creators.
These Senior Creators provide exclusive supplies for the Ten Thousand Treasures Commerce.
As a result, the Ten Thousand Treasures Commerce has managed to eke out a position slightly above the middle ranks.
Fang Yuan spent a sleepless night in the dormitory of the Ten Thousand Treasures Commerce.
Using the knowledge he had, he spared no effort in constructing the framework of the commerce association.
In the operation system, Fang Yuan incorporated some of the finest elements from the Ten Thousand Treasures Commerce.
The fact that the Ten Thousand Treasures Commerce was able to advance rather than retreat in the fiercely competitive world of commerce associations should not be overlooked.
While it had many areas that drew praise, it also had shortcomings.
These shortcomings were easily observed by Fang Yuan, who was part of it.
As such, Fang Yuan made an effort to avoid these flaws as much as possible.
Fang Yuan had been evolving since he joined the association several years ago.
As for his own blueprint, Fang Yuan was extremely satisfied.
However, his satisfaction was of no use unless Jianmu, the assistant to [Stellar Start], was content!
Becoming an assistant to a Grandmaster Creator and receiving abundant resources from high-star creators.
Jianmu presumably was also a Senior Creator himself.
Fang Yuan reviewed the blueprint he had made twice.
After ensuring there were no issues, Fang Yuan sent his completed framework and plan for a commerce association to Jianmu’s account on the Steward’s Network.
Fang Yuan then rubbed his red and swollen eyes.
He changed into his captain’s uniform donned with the Golden Gloves and headed directly to the president’s office.
Under normal circumstances, Fang Yuan would not have the privilege to speak directly with the president.
But everyone in the Ten Thousand Treasures Commerce knew of the president, Tang Xiao’s, high regard for Fang Yuan.
So no one stopped Fang Yuan.
Fang Yuan lightly knocked on the door of the president’s office.
Soon, a robust voice came from inside.
“Come in!”
Upon entering, Fang Yuan saw a burly man of at least 1.95 metres tall sitting in an executive chair made of the highest grade material—Water Rhino Hide.
He was reviewing a stack of lists in his hand.
Seeing that the visitor was Fang Yuan, Tang Xiao was visibly surprised.
Although Tang Xiao had given Fang Yuan the privilege of seeking him directly in his office,
Fang Yuan had never used it before.
Tang Xiao realised that this visit might be out of the ordinary.
“Fang Yuan, have a seat!”
“Try some of this freshly brewed tea!”
“You got injured on a mission the other day, you should be resting.”
“Young people don’t need to push themselves too hard.”
Upon receiving the teacup that Tang Xiao handed him, Fang Yuan did not take a sip.
Instead, he looked gratefully at Tang Xiao.
The substantial support he could provide his family over these years,
Apart from his own efforts, had been largely due to Tang Xiao’s recognition of him.
Without that, no matter how hard he got injured during his missions, he would have had no chance of being promoted to leading the Golden Gloves procurement team.
However, now that Fang Yuan was about to establish his own business and henceforth change his identity, from the leader of the Ten Thousand Treasures Commerce’s Golden Gloves Procurement Division to the Red Sleeve of the
“Jianmu Commerce Association.”
As a partner and executive of Jianmu, he would be responsible for managing the Jianmu Commerce Association.
Fang Yuan was not an ungrateful person and was willing to work with the Ten Thousand Treasures Commerce for mutual benefits.
But if the partnership with Ten Thousand Treasures Commerce would not bring sufficient benefits to the Jianmu Commerce Association,
Even if he and Tang Xiao had a personal relationship, Fang Yuan would not let Jianmu Commerce Association cooperate with the Ten Thousand Treasures Commerce.
From this point forward, at work, Fang Yuan was answerable only to Jianmu.
Fang Yuan did not manoeuvre around the issue with Tang Xiao, instead, he went straight to the point.
“President Tang, I wish to resign!”
Upon hearing Fang Yuan’s words, Tang Xiao was rooted to the spot.
Tang Xiao was well aware of Fang Yuan’s need for money.
After all, Fang Yuan had been using his earnings to support his younger brothers and sisters at home.
This showed Tang Xiao the responsibility that Fang Yuan was capable of.
That was also one of the reasons why Tang Xiao was willing to give Fang Yuan more chances.
The benefits that Tang Xiao had offered to Fang Yuan were tremendously good, and Tang Xiao could not fathom any reason why Fang Yuan would leave.
Unless Fang Yuan had found a better opportunity!
As the person in charge of the commerce association, Tang Xiao aimed to maximize profit.
Therefore, even if he appreciated Fang Yuan, he would not give Fang Yuan more money.
If Fang Yuan found an opportunity that was better than the current one, Tang Xiao would actually wish Fang Yuan well in his heart.
However, opportunities that seemed obvious often come with hidden traps.
Tang Xiao was afraid that the young Fang Yuan could not handle it well.
Just as Tang Xiao was about to ask Fang Yuan where he intended to find another way out,
He heard Fang Yuan continue.
“Chairman, before I resigned, I negotiated a cooperative deal for the commerce association, which required thirty-five million Dragon Rising Coins.”
Hearing this, Tang Xiao was taken aback.
Thirty-five million Dragon Rising Coins was no small sum!
Such an astronomical price was already within the scope of the Golden Sleeve’s work.
It was not something that Fang Yuan, the leader of the Golden Gloves purchase division, could negotiate.
If it wasn’t for Tang Xiao’s knowledge of Fang Yuan’s moral integrity, he would have thought Fang Yuan wanted to misuse his trust to make a quick fortune and take flight!
Tang Xiao asked unassumingly.
“Oh? Thirty-five million Dragon Rising Coins!”
“What kind of spiritual material did you choose for our commerce association?”
Hearing this, Fang Yuan didn’t keep him guessing and directly replied. “It’s a hundred bottles of Life Elixir with a purity of sixty percent!” “To be frank, I plan to help a Creator establish a commerce association afterward.
“I hope that in the future, you and I can work together as partners.”
Actually, Fang Yuan didn’t have to resign from his Golden Gloves position with Tang Xiao in such a hurry.
The reason why he did so was to express his intentions to Jianmu.
Since Jianmu trusted him so much, even though his intentions might not be valued in terms of monetary worth,
At the very least, he had to let Jianmu know.
For a moment, Tang Xiao was at a loss for words after hearing Fang Yuan’s plans.
If what Fang Yuan said was true, then he must have stumbled into a great opportunity!
How resourceful must a Creator be to be willing to sell a hundred bottles of Life Elixir with a purity of sixty percent!?
With Fang Yuan’s talent and character, if that Creator was willing to let go and allow Fang Yuan to take charge,
The development of this commerce association would surely be extraordinary in the end.
“Xiao Yuan, now that you have left the commerce association, you don’t need to call me ‘Chairman’ anymore!”
“You can call me ‘Uncle Tang’, or just use my name!”
“You just said that you negotiated this cooperation on the Beastmaster Web and signed a contract, right?”
Upon hearing this, Fang Yuan nodded and said,
“That’s right, everything was done according to the official procedures of the Beastmaster Web!”
Hearing this, Tang Xiao nodded.
If the other party was willing to sign a contract, then it couldn’t be fake.
Otherwise, they could be held accountable by the Beastmaster Alliance and had to compensate with Dragon Rising Coins of a value equivalent to the traded items.
Tang Xiao continued to ask,
“Xiao Yuan, to start a commerce association, you need a capital to begin with!” “I wonder how much capital this Creator is willing to provide you with?” Hearing this, Fang Yuan knew that Tang Xiao wanted to give him advice.
Fang Yuan needed this kind of opportunity.
Using Ten Thousand Treasures Commerce to incubate Jianmu Commerce Association was the best strategy for its initial development.
Fang Yuan had now stepped into his role as the Red Sleeve of his Jianmu
Commerce Association, preparing to negotiate cooperation with Tang Xiao.
The most crucial element for both parties wanting to cooperate was to showcase their strength.
The stronger his side appeared, the more priority the other party would give to his side.
Otherwise, even if they cooperated, they would only be overlooked by the other party.
“We don’t have capital…”
Here, Fang Yuan deliberately paused for a moment.
Tang Xiao, who was listening carefully on the side, was a frank man and almost blurted out, “Are you freaking kidding me!? You dare to take on this responsibility without any start-up capital!?”
Seeing the expression on Tang Xiao’s face, Fang Yuan knew that he had achieved the intended effect of a false start.
“Indeed we have no start-up capital, but for the first month, we have three thousand bottles of Life Elixir with a purity of sixty percent as start-up supplies..”
