Starry Sky Railway: Opening Performance - Taixu Sword God

"The Chamber of Commerce really needs someone as wealthy and influential as him!"

"So much wealth, so many billions?!" March 7th looked at Yan Huan with disdain:

"Hey...you didn't actually give the Chamber of Commerce money so they could just pay the rent directly, did you?!"

"No, that's not true at all!" Yan stood with his hands behind his back, gazing at the sea of ​​clouds in the distance from the dock, and said in a deep voice:

"This is what happens after an investment fails; right now, it's far from a failure!"

"???"

Chapter 366 Dragon Girl, I'm Here to Protect You

"Are you OK?"

On March 7th, hands on hips, her pinkish-blue eyes conveyed utter incomprehension:

"With your level of expertise, you're acting as a consultant... Don't forget about the Belleburg Museum."

"Hmm?" Yan raised an eyebrow:

"What do I have to do with museums?"

"If it weren't for someone adding fuel to the fire, it would have been thriving under my management long ago!"

March 7th said helplessly:

"Bai Lu and I have been waiting for you for ages, and you just come and get involved in this without even telling us."

Bai Lu and I had been waiting for Yan to arrive before having a big meal.

He never came, so the two of them had to keep eating the smaller items until they were full.

"How could I possibly leave on the spot after such a heated exchange?"

……

The two were not far apart.

The man who appeared to be the secretary of the chamber of commerce said to Su Chang with regret:

"Young lady, this kind of bet is of no benefit to you at all... We've dragged you into this mess."

"It's nothing, it's nothing."

Su Chang quickly waved her hand:

"I felt really uncomfortable with his arrogant attitude. I had to do something. I couldn't just stand by and do nothing."

"How could we not know the young lady's good intentions? But..."

Just as they were talking, Yan walked over, put his hands behind his back, and said thoughtfully:

"Friend, you don't need to steal my thunder."

"?" Su Chang almost exploded when she saw Yan approaching:

"Good heavens, you dare to bring that up again?"

"If I hadn't intervened, you definitely would have wanted to hit that salesperson, right?!"

"How is that possible?" Yan raised his eyes slightly and patted the steel pipe in his hand:

Do I look like an unprofessional consultant?

Su Chang was too lazy to waste her breath arguing with Yan Huan, and she had calmed down by now.

"I'm starting to regret it now. If I lose the bet, I'll definitely embarrass the Cloud Cavalry..."

"But look at how arrogant that guy is. If he loses and starts barking like a dog, his pathetic appearance will be quite amusing..."

"But it would be even more interesting to see him fly from Jinren Alley to Shence Mansion with a single blow from my steel pipe..."

"Please don't do that." Su Chang looked at Yan Huan's aggressive appearance and felt a sudden wave of fear for no reason.

“He’s a salesman for Interstellar Peace Company. If you really hit him, that would be a real problem.”

“Both your Starry Sky Train and our Immortal Ship will be held accountable by the company that represents ‘protection’.”

Standing to the side, March 7th listened silently, and indeed, that made sense.

Good guy...

Fortunately, Su Chang stepped forward in time, otherwise it could have been dangerous.

Based on their previous conversation, it seems that the Jinren Lane Chamber of Commerce owed them money first.

"They don't even have a valid point...!" March 7th slapped Yan:

"You bastard, you're going to stab someone with a steel pipe without even knowing what happened? And you call yourself an advisor!"

"Do I look like that kind of person?!" Yan casually tossed the steel pipe aside, put his hands behind his back, looked up at the sky, and pondered:

"My initial plan was to pay him first, and then beat him up..."

"Doesn't that mean you're at a loss?"

"It's okay, all my money comes from Jingyuan's windfall."

"..."

"Mr. Yan Huan, we are far from being reduced to that level," the secretary-like person reassured him.

"Thank you for your willingness to help our chamber of commerce, but please don't lose faith so quickly. We are confident that we can pay off our debts through our business operations."

Then, she looked at March 7th:

“Young lady… it seems you are with Mr. Yan Huan. My name is Ming Xi, and I am the secretary of the Jinren Lane Chamber of Commerce. Everyone usually calls me ‘Little Secretary’.”

"The matter at Jinren Lane Wharf was originally a dispute between the Chamber of Commerce and the company, and should not involve you all."

"Mr. Yan Huan also witnessed this incident and volunteered to serve as an advisor to the Chamber of Commerce. Originally, this matter required a lot of procedures... but unexpectedly, he made a phone call to Lord Yu Kong with just one call."

"So... his current role is that of an advisor to the Chamber of Commerce."

March 7th's eyes widened:

"Damn, so that's how you got your current identity? I thought you passed the interview based on your own merits!"

Bai Lu, who had been listening silently from the side, stepped forward and asked worriedly:

"So... is it really true that we in Jinren Alley can't pay our rent?"

Bai Lu likes to come here to relax when she has nothing to do. If the Chamber of Commerce really can't pay back the money, Jinren Alley might have to be demolished...

The worker behind Mingxi sighed:

"Secretary, just say it."

Mingxi nodded, somewhat helplessly saying:

"Mr. Yan Huan has also seen our business reports. According to the current situation, Jinren Lane Wharf is not well managed and cannot pay the rent for the time being."

On March 7th, he inquired:

"Is this dock really rented by the Chamber of Commerce from the company? This is clearly Luofu's territory..."

“Yes,” Mingxi explained.

"The company acquired this port a long time ago, and the Chamber of Commerce already owes the company a huge debt just from leasing the port."

Bai Lu recalled:

"This Golden Man Alley looks quite bustling... Did you really not make any money?"

Mingxi couldn't help but sigh:

"The snack business is still quite lively, but other businesses, as well as the operation of the dock, have reached a point where they are struggling to make ends meet."

In response, Yan frankly stated:

"Isn't making improvements the way to making money? Let me do it!"

"Pull him down!"

On March 7th, he pulled Yan back to his side and whispered:

"Are you crazy?! You just arrived in Golden Man Alley today... Why are you in such a hurry to stand up for them?!"

"I don't want to either..." Yan Huan shrugged. "But we promised Jing Liu and Jing Yuan that we would take care of Bai Lu. She just invited us out for nightlife today. Her favorite Jinren Alley is about to close down. We can't just stand by and watch, can we?"

"Besides, with my superb operational skills..."

Before Yan could finish speaking, Mingxi expressed her opinion:

"Currently, increasing revenue and reducing costs can boost the dock's income. However, increasing revenue is fraught with difficulties, and many shops in Jinren Lane are refusing to cooperate with us..."

"What about cutting costs?" Su Chang asked.

"Cut-offs, in essence, mean reducing costs. As you can see, the docks aren't fully open, and as for the workers..."

Before Mingxi could finish speaking, a male worker behind her started to panic.

"Hey, hey, hey, don't even think about laying off people, sir!"

Another female worker offered words of comfort:

"Hey, hey, the secretary is trying to find a solution too."

"To be honest, the current order processing efficiency is a bit low. If we could focus on improving that, we could definitely save costs!"

Mr. Yan gave the female worker an approving look:

"Very good. I didn't expect that among the people present, there would be someone with the same ideas as me. I acknowledge you!"

"But... it doesn't seem like it can save much, does it?" March 7th was somewhat doubtful.

Bai Lu, hands on her hips, exclaimed with fervor:

“It’s better than doing nothing.”

"Brother Yan Huan, just go ahead and do it with confidence!"

"If this deal goes through, as long as you come to Dan Ding Si once, I'll cook you a free plum juice!"
