"I am Hu Yong, I am Hu Yong. If Young Master has anything to say, feel free to say it." Hu Yong's answer immediately came from the walkie-talkie.
"Now, I order you to take over the west side of the city market. I have already bought this market." Li Yun said seriously.
"Hu Yong understands. Immediately bring someone to take over the West Market. Please be at ease, young master."
After putting away the walkie-talkie, Li Yun drove to the Southern City Market without any hesitation. He wanted to take all the markets as his subordinate in the shortest amount of time.
Arriving at the South City Market's entrance, Li Yun also picked up the microphone and shouted, "Please speak with the manager of South City Market."
After a while, a man with a leopard's head surrounded his eyes. He appeared in front of Li Yun and asked, "Senior, what can I do for you?"
With the precedent from before, Li Yun had a reference, "How about I bid 5 million immortal stones to buy this market from you?"
5 million immortal stones was already not a small number. Even if it were an ordinary person, they would spend 100,000 every year. It can take up to 500 years.
The leopard headed man calmly asked, "Senior, do you want to pay on demand or pay in instalments?"
Li Yun took out a ring on the spot, "There's 5 million here, count them. If there's no problem, we'll immediately deliver it."
The youth took the ring and carefully counted it. He took out a contract and handed it to Li Yun. He respectfully said, "Thank you for your gift. This Southern City Market will be your business from now on."
Li Yun received it. After saluting the man, he picked up the walkie-talkie and said loudly, "Hu Yong, take over the South City Market immediately. Buy this place for me too, I think you need to recruit more people."
After saying that, he started the car and sped towards the East Market. Using the same method, using force to intimidate others and adding immortal stones to pave the way. In a very short period of time, Li Yun had taken all the markets in the city as his subordinate.
After that, Li Yun immediately went on and on without stopping. He began to greatly adjust the major markets, and even used immortal stones to pave the way. He had had enough of all the merchants' wares. At the same time, a large number of modern goods were distributed to these merchants through the North City Market.
Taking advantage of the time it took these merchants to leave Jingtian City and return to their hometowns, the reconstruction of the eastern market, southern market, and western market began to take place in full swing.
The North City Market was the wholesale point of Li Yun's own products. The East City Market was the sales point of the northern and southern products of the Immortal World. All of the employees there were Li Yun's subordinates, and the West Market was the purchasing point of all the northern and southern products of the Immortal Sword Sect.
As long as the travelling merchants were willing to sell their goods and buy all of them, the Southern City Market would be the true free trade market. The merchants could rent their own stalls and sell the goods they brought, but they would have to obey the unified management of the department store.
At the same time, a large number of recruitment and training activities began immediately. The sudden increase of three big markets required a large number of employees, and according to Li Yun's perspective, he also needed to set up a special dining area in the Jingtian City. He needed to set up a complete set of low-grade high school dining places, which would provide convenience for the customers from all over the Immortal World.
After a few months of Li Yun's intense construction and adjustment, the order of business within the city had started to regulate, and Li Yun had practically monopolized all of the Jingtian City's goods, exports and imports.
That day, Huo Shouyi came to visit Li Yun at his home. Li Yun was bored to death, so he received him. After greeting each other. Or he said, "Right now, 99% of the businesses in the city are controlled by the young master. However, you have yet to pay any taxes on your salary. Jing Tian Cheng has so many constables and constables, he can't even pay his salary."
After hearing Huo Shouyi's complaints, Li Yun smiled and said, "I wonder how much money the Mayor needs to support these men?"
Huo Shouyi hesitated for a moment and then mustered up his courage to say, "The combined expenditure of all the yamen runners is about 30 thousand immortal stones per month, and in the past, it was a big market, so we will pay a lot of taxes. Ever since the young master took over, the profits of this area are gone, we can only increase the tax on the heads at the city gate, as well as on the goods entering and leaving the city, but doing so has aroused the disgust of many merchants.
Li Yun thought for a moment, then said truthfully, "Cancel all the taxes at the city gates, and you can go to the Li Residence to collect 50 thousand immortal stones for your daily expenses. What do you think?"
Huo Shouyi was overjoyed upon hearing this. He immediately cupped his hands and said, "Thank you for your generosity, I will immediately cancel all charges at the city gate. The yamen runners only do daily security patrols and they will not dare to interfere with your business."
Li Yun smiled faintly, "Doing business is a matter of the heavens. Don't talk about gratitude or not. If there comes a day that you're short on money or if you're short on money, you can open your mouth at any time. As long as you don't make things too difficult for others, you can just come and go."
At this moment, a soldier came in and reported to Li Yun, "Young Master, a guest called Qing Hong requests an audience."
Huo Shouyi saw that he had achieved his purpose for coming here today. He then saw that Li Yun had a guest visiting him, so he quickly got up and took his leave.
Li Yun did not continue to keep him. He waved his hand at the soldier and said, "Welcome, esteemed guest."
Although Li Yun didn't show it on his face, he had already started to panic internally. He called himself Qinghong, who else could it be? It must be that cheap senior brother of his. Li Yun could roughly guess what Qinghong had come to visit today.
It was definitely because Celestial Sovereign Ni Chang had already seen Immortal Qinghong and told him her words. Immortal Qinghong had always felt guilty about his fall. Now that he heard the words of Li Yun from the celestial sovereign, he must be very surprised. He came this time to confirm it.
And Li Yun had gone through the Earth's 21st century culture, the open-mindedness of the state of mind, was incomparable to the people of this world, the 21st century Earth's network. The spirit chicken soup that covered the sky and covered the earth had long trained everyone to the point that their hearts were as firm as stone.
The love affair between entertainers and celebrities was unceasingly being exposed. It had already become a normal thing. That was why Li Yun saw everything very clearly. What he was currently thinking was … How to grasp this opportunity. Set up an additional backer for yourself.
One had to know that in the Immortal World, the Supreme God and the Celestial Lord were the top existences. Behind him was a celestial sovereign, and behind Qin'er was a celestial king. If he had a supreme deity, and if he had 12 Wehrmachts under his command, who in this Immortal World could touch him?
Therefore, Li Yun made up his mind that he must teach Immortal Qinghong well this time and make him a strong person to rely on.
