Chapter 65: Jinhuangbao Bank is in big trouble
Jinhuang Baohang is located in the east of Yunling City.
This treasure house was built very luxuriously and magnificently. At least compared with the Qingfeng treasure house, the Jinhuang treasure house makes people feel more majestic and noble.
In addition, Jinhuang Baohang also hired a large number of guards to patrol day and night.
The cultivation base of these guards is also quite powerful. They are all at the Foundation Establishment and Core Formation stages, and there are even some Nascent Soul stage cultivators. All they have to do is guard the gate. Such a scene is considered luxurious in Yunling City.
Feng Wuxin, the president of Jinhuangbao Bank, was sitting in the study at this time, looking at the account book handed over by the chief steward with a frown on his face.
Qingfeng Baoxing's behavior has been quite abnormal these days.
The low-level healing medicine over there was suppressed by their side, but that was the focus of Qingfeng Treasure Shop after all. However, in the past ten days, Qingfeng Treasure Shop did not sell any low-level healing medicine, as if they had consumed all the inventory and the alchemists did not continue to refine new goods.
What's even more unusual is that Qingfeng Baoxing recently bought a lot of low-level medicinal materials in Baohe City, three hundred miles away...
You don't want to make medicine, but you want to stockpile so many low-grade medicinal materials. What is the purpose of this?
Feng Wuxin put down the account book and rubbed his eyebrows.
She couldn't concentrate at all. She knew the profits and losses of the Golden Phoenix Treasure Bank very clearly. The bank's recent profits were very good. At least in the two and a half years since she became the president, the monthly revenue had been increasing. She should have been happy, but the recent changes in the Green Wind Treasure Bank made her feel uncomfortable.
Therefore, Feng Wuxin sent her personal maid to find out Qingfeng Baoxing's recent actions.
"Miss, it's getting late. If you don't rest, it will be bad for your health."
The chief steward was also a woman, but her face looked middle-aged. She stood behind Feng Wuxin without any behavior that overstepped the mark. In fact, she was both the general manager of the business and Feng Wuxin's first personal bodyguard. This kind of position would only be held by the person Feng Wuxin trusted the most.
And she is one of them.
"Aunt Yuan, the behavior of Qingfeng Baoxing is too abnormal. I really can't sleep well if I don't investigate it thoroughly."
Feng Wuxin sighed.
"Miss, Shang Xiong of Qingfeng Baoxing is mysterious by nature. Even if you ask Xiaoyu and Xiaomu to investigate, they may not be able to find out anything."
Aunt Yuan comforted her.
Hearing this, Feng Wuxin forced a smile, but the worry in his eyes remained.
Feng Wuxin has an obsession, and this obsession is also something that makes Aunt Yuan worried.
After all, being "exiled" to the Riyan Dynasty and serving as the president of a branch in a small city was nothing short of a great humiliation for Feng Wuxin.
She should have been the most popular ninth daughter of the Feng family, but due to the death of her father and her mother, she became a lonely person. Not only that, she was also hunted by her cousins, and her life became more and more difficult.
In the end, an order from the clan sent her to Yunling City of the Riyan Dynasty to serve as the president of the local Jinhuang Baoxing.
Feng Wuxin wanted to fight back step by step.
Yunling City is the starting point.
Aunt Yuan saw that she couldn't persuade her, so she stopped talking. She knew that her young lady actually had a very stubborn temper.
When Xiaoyu and Xiaomu pushed open the door of the study, she felt a little relieved to see that although they were anxious, at least they were safe and sound.
"Miss! We found it!"
Xiaoyu excitedly ran to Feng Wuxin, her eyes sparkling. No one could have imagined that she had been at the gates of hell and almost lost her life.
"How is it? What is Qingfeng Baoxing doing?"Feng Wuxin also raised his eyebrows and asked hurriedly.
Xiaoyu took out the bottle of Qingling Liquid, placed it on the table, and said, "This is what Qingfeng Baoxing has been busy with - a new low-level healing medicine called 'Qingling Liquid'!"
Feng Wuxin picked up the bottle of Qingling Liquid and looked at it carefully.
This bottle of Qingling Liquid is indeed unique. It is transparent and blue-green in color, and looks like a drop of water with spiritual power so rich that it cannot be dissolved.
Xiaoyu told everything she saw in Qingfeng Baohang.
After hearing this, Feng Wuxin's expression became completely solemn.
"Is that so... It seems that Shang Xiong is planning to hoard a batch of Qingling Liquid first, and then sell a large amount of it at a low price at one time, so that our healing medicine will completely lose the market!"
Qingfeng Baohang has been frequently purchasing various low-level medicinal materials recently. The reason is not complicated. It is just because Qingfeng Baohang found a mysterious alchemist from somewhere. That person actually created a new prescription and can make enough liquid medicine to fill a hundred jade bottles at a time!
The dosage is large, the prescription is kept secret, and, the effectiveness... although not as good as theirs, it's not much worse.
Aunt Yuan took the jade bottle and sniffed it.
Then her face turned ugly.
As the most powerful cultivator present, she had a more thorough understanding of the medicinal power of this Qing Ling Liquid. When the efficacy was similar, the cost of this Qing Ling Liquid was really too low, so low that it was terrifying!
"Miss, this may be a bit troublesome... Qingfeng Baoxing may already have a lot of this new medicine in stock, and it is increasing rapidly..."
Feng Wuxin could tell without Aunt Yuan saying anything that the Golden Phoenix Treasure Shop was in big trouble!
A large amount of low-priced Qingling Liquid will force Jinhuang Baoxing to lower its prices as well, but the costs of the two healing medicines are completely different, so Jinhuang Baoxing will be the first to be dragged down.
"...Xiao Mu, please go and invite Master Mu here."
Feng Wuxin ordered.
Xiao Mu received the order and went there immediately. In just a cup of tea time, she brought back a middle-aged man.
"I wonder what President Feng wants to see me so urgently?"
Master Mu's face was not looking good. He was just studying alchemy to enhance his spiritual power, but he was interrupted while practicing. Naturally, he was very unhappy.
But it finally came.
After all, he was also cooperating with the Golden Phoenix Treasure Bank, and to him, the Golden Phoenix Treasure Bank was a very generous sponsor.
"Master Mu, please take a look at this."
Feng Wuxin handed over the Qingling Liquid, and Master Mu took it. After looking at the color of the liquid, his face looked a little unnatural. After smelling the fragrance of the medicine, anyone could see that Master Mu was shocked by this spiritual medicine.
"This... this is impossible. Four kinds of lowest-grade medicinal materials can actually be used to refine a spiritual medicine that is almost close to the third grade?"
Although Master Mu was only a second-rank alchemist, he had considerable experience in alchemy. But even so, he almost praised the refiner of the Qingling Liquid.
"May I ask, President Feng, where did you get this medicine?"
"This is what my maid got from sneaking into Qingfeng Treasure Shop tonight. In other words, Qingfeng Treasure Shop intends to sell this elixir."
"We are in big trouble."
Feng Wuxin's tone became increasingly gloomy.
