Cosmic Trading System

"So many pieces of jewelry?" Hang Lee was taken aback on seeing the items Lin Yun brought out again.

The number of accessories Lin Yun brought out this time was no less than the last time he brought them, nor was there any drop in quality. Only the styles differed, each having its own unique appeal.

Rarity lends to value. The appearance of a massive quantity of top-notch jewelry might devalue such pieces. Yet, these unique pieces didn\'t lose much of their value.

Despite the fact that Lin Yun had assured him of the ability to procure more jewelry of similar quality, he was still astounded by Lin Yun\'s capacity to do so in such a short time.

"Brother Lin, there\'s something I\'ve been considering prior to our meeting, and now I\'m even more certain." Hang Lee looked at Lin Yun and said seriously.

"What is it?" Lin Yun asked curiously.

"I feel like I transferred too few shares to you last time, or maybe, my share of the proceeds from the sale of these pieces of jewelry is a bit too much." Hang Lee said after some thought.

"As I said last time, selling these pieces at Lee\'s Jewelry Store can only benefit the business. You must have noticed that, without these pieces, it would be quite difficult for the store to achieve sales in the hundreds of millions today." After a pause, Hang Lee continued.

"The worth of Lee\'s Jewelry Chain Stores is around ten billion. The pieces you brought last time were sold for eight hundred and seventy million. I gave you thirty percent of the shares, and you shared thirty percent of the deal amount. The difference is minimal.

However, it would be unfair if I benefited more from the sale of these new pieces, considering the brand reputation Lee\'s Jewelry Chain Stores will gain from selling your pieces." Hang Lee continued.

"Brother Lee, it doesn\'t work like that. Selling these pieces myself would be quite a hassle. Besides, you have to deal with advertising, publicity, networking, taxes, store management, and all. I just have to occasionally bring you some stuff and I get seventy percent of the deal amount, plus thirty percent of shares in Lee\'s Jewelry Store.

That\'s pretty good already." Lin Yun said with a faint smile.

"I have two proposals. First, I could transfer another twenty percent of Lee\'s Jewelry Store shares to you."

Hang Lee shook his head, no longer wanting to elaborate, and made his point directly.

"Secondly, you continue to hold thirty percent of the shares in Lee\'s Jewelry Store, but I can only give you ten percent of your jewelry sales amount. After all, the cost of the jadeite and the top-level carving also need to be considered."

"So, which one will you choose?" Hang Lee looked at Lin Yun and asked.

"Well..." Lin Yun hesitated.

In reality, as he had just explained, selling these pieces himself might lead to a lot of hassles. Plus, without resources such as Hang Lee\'s, he might have to sell at lower prices. For a busy person like him who couldn\'t invest much energy in this matter, receiving seventy percent of the deal amount and thirty percent shares of Lee\'s Jewelry Store was quite significant, to begin with.

However, Hang Lee\'s resolution was palpable.

If Lin Yun were indecisive, Hang Lee might not be so accommodating.

Which option to choose?

He was well-aware that he would have many pieces of jewelry for Hang Lee to sell in the future.

The second proposal would be more profitable for him.

He didn\'t want to take too much advantage of Hang Lee.

However, the first choice felt as if he was trying to dominate Hang Lee\'s business.

If he received an additional twenty percent of the shares, he would hold fifty percent of the shares in Lee\'s Jewelry Store. At that point, his position would be on par with Hang Lee\'s, if not higher. Hang Lee would still have to work, but Lin Yun would not.

"I\'ll go with the second choice..." Lin Yun eventually decided, with a bitter smile.

"Let\'s settle it then. The total amount from the sale of the jewelry is somewhere around eight hundred and seventy million. Ninety percent is seven hundred and eighty-five million. The sales proceeds from the rest of the jewelry amounts to one hundred and seventy million, of which the profit is roughly fifty million, thirty percent of which is fifteen million.

So altogether it adds up to eight hundred million. I will transfer it to you right away." Hang Lee laughed.

"Brother Lee, there\'s no need to stick with the ten percent commission for this deal, is there?" Since Hang Lee had been so generous, Lin Yun decided to make a grand gesture and share the proceeds.

The twenty percent of eight hundred and seventy million was more than one hundred seventy million, and he could give it to Hang Lee.

"If you had not brought so many pieces today, I might have ended up taking thirty percent. But you\'ve again brought so many pieces, and I\'m sure there would be many more top-notch pieces in the future. How could I have the audacity to take thirty percent?" Hang Lee shook his head and replied.

While talking, Hang Lee had already transferred eight hundred million Huaxia Currency to Lin Yun\'s account.

Previously, when Hang Lee had brought over a thousand kilograms of gold, Lin Yun had almost depleted his entire wealth.

All he had left was about four hundred million in his stock account.

Now, his account was once again flush with cash.

"Brother Lee, thank you very much." Seeing this, Lin Yun could only smile and express his gratitude.

"Why should we thank each other? We\'re brothers," said Hang Lee with a slight smile.

The two were negotiating business while benefiting each other, which was somewhat unusual.

However, such a pleasant business negotiation process was not bad at all.

Neither of them was a fool or idiot.

A gentleman would give his life for someone he recognizes as a true friend.

A drop of favor should be returned with a gushing spring.

If you give me an inch, I\'ll return a yard.

Most people wouldn\'t understand that.

Only through personal experience would one realize that wealth can be easily acquired, but true friends are hard to find.

To compensate, Lin Yun asked Hang Lee whether he wanted him to turn the jadeite pieces Lin Yun bought a few days ago into top-tier ornaments. The processing fee would be easily negotiated.

After a short consideration, Hang Lee declined.

Clearly, he realized that there was just so much time for carving. Lin Yun had both top-tier carving channels and a large amount of top-tier jadeite. What difference would it make if Lin Yun made his jadeite into top-tier ornaments, compared to using his own jadeite to make top-tier ornaments and selling them at a low price?

The profit from this would even exceed the profit he had just given to Lin Yun.

However, what he said on the surface was:

A store couldn\'t just have these top-tier ornaments, without any top-tier ornament of average carving. This would cause a gap in the jewelries\' levels in the store, which was not beneficial for the development of Lee\'s Jewelry Store.

His words were indeed true.

Lin Yun had a general understanding of Hang Lee\'s thoughts, but agreed anyway.

He made up his mind that from now on, he would leave the jewelry business to Hang Lee.

With plenty of time ahead, he had enough time to repay Hang Lee. There was no need to care too much about this moment.

After the jewelry had been taken away by Hang Lee, Lin Yun returned to somewhere near the Golden Dragon Building to have tea, rest, and practice.

Now that the Cosmic Trading System could absorb and refine spiritual energy within a radius of 100 meters, Lin Yun no longer had to stay specifically on the eighth or ninth floors of the Golden Dragon Building.

He only needed to be near the Golden Dragon Building and the radius where the Cosmic Trading System absorbed and refined spiritual energy could cover the entire Golden Dragon Building.

One day, two days, time slowly slipped by...

Every day Lin Yun not only used the Martial Arts Pill, but also absorbed and refined Spirit Crystals for practice.

The Spirit Crystals could be used for practice, which was why they were valuable.

By using the Spirit Crystals, Lin Yun\'s mental strength progressed rapidly, and the red mental strength in his consciousness had doubled in volume.

He felt that his thoughts had become clearer and clearer, whether thinking or reacting, everything was getting faster.

Not only because he had broken through to the late Mingjin Stage.

His martial arts strength had also advanced rapidly.

He had a feeling that if he continued to train like this, he might be able to break through to the Mingjin peak within a month.

The effect of the Hundred-day Foundation Pill was incredibly powerful.

However, foundation building was very important for martial arts training, so he didn\'t rush to break through.

In the past few days, Lin Yun hadn\'t often visited the factory. Today, he planned to go and take a look.

"Huh?"

As his car just entered the urban village and drove down a lane, several men stepped up to stop it.
