Chapter #1250. PinchThree days passed..Tian Fan spent his time concocting many pills in his spatial room, while on the other place, the four managers were busy organizing the trade house he led. This was due to the overwhelming number of customers coming to purchase goods.Fortunately, all of this was within Tian Fan's plans, so it could still be handled well by them. With precise planning, careful preparation, and thorough execution, everything went perfectly.“We’re really lucky. Stage one and stage two of the plan were successfully carried out. Now we just have to wait for stage three to begin!” said Kong Gu to Lady Song.“Yes, now we just wait for the big fish to come, since the bait has already been eaten by the small ones,” replied Lady Song, her face gleaming. “So where is the young master? I haven’t seen him all day,” she asked curiously.“The young master is in the special guest room. He asked not to be disturbed, saying he was tired after healing our alchemist. He also men

Chapter #1252. A Fight?Tian Fan looked at the three of them and the people who were with them."I haven’t answered your last question yet..."Yes, I am the one who messed up the your plan!" said Tian Fan casually.Yue Shang and Hua Gongzi showed twisted, irritated expressions. Both of them immediately stared sharply at Tian Fan."So it’s true you sabotaged the challenge and ruined our pill ingredients? How dare you!" shouted Yue Shang while pointing at Tian Fan."I only taught you a lesson for your underhanded actions poisoning our alchemists and sabotaging us.""Ah, so from the start, you really intended to harm the Red Trading House and the Sun Commerce Guild? How petty!" said Tian Fan, his voice raised as he stared back and forth at Yue Shang and Hua Gongzi.The crowd watching instantly became noisy. Their opinion of Yue Shang worsened, and Hua Gongzi was also dragged into their jeers."Bastard, this guy…" "That scoundrel is really asking for death!" thought Hua Gongzi and Yue

Chapter #1254. The Manager ActsTian Fan stared out the window. From his spot on the second floor, he saw Yue Shang walking out of the Sun Pavilion sluggishly, his head bowed in defeat. He was walking beside a dignified man whose clothing indicated a high social status.Tian Fan smiled as he saw Yue Shang clenching his fists tightly while walking, clearly showing the intense frustration Yue Shang was feeling."His pride must be wounded. I don't think he’ll dare show his face in the Four Gates City again," he muttered softly."That's absolutely right, young master! In fact, I’m sure both the Red Trading Guilde and the Sun Tading Guild in this city feel the same way!" exclaimed Lady Song as she entered the room. Tian Fan could see the bright expressions of the four managers, all smiling widely as they approached him."Looks like the negotiation went smoothly?" Tian Fan said casually."Without any obstacles or resistance!" replied Kong Gu confidently.Tian Fan frowned. To him, it all fel

Chapter #1256. Coincidence?Tian Fan parted ways with Du Xu and his group outside the imperial capital. From there, he continued his journey toward entering the capital.Throughout the journey, he was convinced that the conversation with Du Xu had greatly benefited him. Naturally, he thought that way because what had been discussed aligned with the reality on the ground. The outskirts of the imperial capital were bustling and thriving, with a level of liveliness that rivaled that of the Four Gates City, where the circulation of gold coins was equally massive."If the outside is already like this, what will it be like inside?" he wondered to himself while observing all the activities along the way.After some time walking, Tian Fan finally arrived in front of the capital's entrance gate. A massive fortress loomed tall, separating the outer and inner parts of the capital. The gate, made of metal and inscribed with many layered runes on its surface, was a clear sign that the inner capita

Chapter #1258. GuessTian Fan followed Ming Rui and the two people with him both of them were women. He went with them under the sharp gazes of the young man with a striped tattoo on his cheek and the meaningful stares from the two girls inside the carriage. As for Hong Guan, he accompanied Tian Fan’s departure with a farewell filled with implied meaning in every word he spoke."This situation is truly strange. I feel like I’ve been caught in a whirlwind of unexpected trouble," he thought to himself.While walking behind the three imperial academy instructors, Tian Fan reflected on everything that had happened from Hong Guan’s attitude trying to be friendly despite not knowing him, to the vengeful gaze of the tattooed young man, and the looks from the two girls in the carriage. It all left him confused, as he genuinely didn’t know any of them.Ming Rui suddenly stopped walking, which caused Tian Fan who had been lost in thought to bump into his back.“Ah, I'm sorry Master Ming, I didn
