My Master Knows It All

”As a result, those cultivators ran to the Pinbao Business Association to sell their goods on their own. Some of them thought it was profitable and messed up the market prices.”

”That’s just one aspect. The main issue is their browsing talisman. I also went to get a forty-foot browsing talisman. I have to say, that thing is really convenient.” A young-looking, chubbier figure, who seemed about the same size as the elder in the main seat and even fatter, praised from the back, ”Father, Uncle, you should try it too. Using this browsing talisman is addictive. You can’t stop using it.”

”Nonsense!” The middle-aged man with a sinister face immediately showed an unhappy expression and harshly scolded his son, ”How can you use things from our competitor?”

The chubby young man didn’t show any fear in response to the reprimand; instead, he retorted, ”Father, isn’t this to know the enemy and achieve a hundred victories?”

As he spoke, he ran to the side of the elder in the main seat.

The sinister-faced man couldn’t help but show a helpless expression upon seeing his son’s actions. His son was spoiled by his grandfather.

The reason is simple: all his brothers, including their children, were all handsome and elegant, unlike their father at all.

Only his son was special, looking exactly like his grandfather, as if they were carved from the same mold, so his son was pampered since childhood.

Like today, everyone was gathered for a meeting here, and it wasn’t supposed to be for the younger generation, but his son was here because he was spoiled by his grandfather.

Fathers love their children, and this was a sight he had seen himself.

But too much love can cause problems. He had heard that a talented person from the Eastern Wasteland once said, ”When a tree stands out in the forest, the wind will destroy it.”

If his son performed outstandingly, it would be fine, but if he was too mediocre, he really feared that his son would be trampled down with no chance to rise again.

Therefore, when he learned that his son was also attending the meeting today, he specifically reminded his child to watch and listen more and speak less. However, his son didn’t heed a word he said!

In the room, a burly middle-aged man heard this and immediately laughed, looking kindly at the chubby junior and said with a smile, ”Nephew, you’re right. Only by understanding your enemy more can you know their weaknesses. You’re doing very well.”

Then, he paused slightly before continuing to ask, ”Nephew, tell me, after using the browsing talisman of the Pinbao Business Association, have you noticed any weaknesses or found any countermeasures against them?”

The sinister-faced middle-aged man’s brow furrowed immediately, realizing that his big brother was obviously setting a trap for his son. What countermeasures?

None of them had figured out a solution, just like the other major business associations who also had no solutions. How could his son have a solution!

If it were him, he could at least evade the question a bit and change the subject, but his son...

Before he could rush to speak, his son’s voice interjected.

”There’s no way. The Pinbao Business Association is invincible now, and they will only get better. In the end, they might not give us any space to survive. I can even foresee that in the future of the Eastern Province, no, I should say for our entire Human Clan, there will only be one major business association, the Pinbao Business Association!”

”Nonsense! What are you talking about! You’re bringing disgrace to our Liu family!” The sinister-faced man immediately got angry upon hearing this. Even if his son knew there was no solution to the current problem, he shouldn’t have said it so blatantly, and saying that only the Pinbao Business Association would remain in the future is not something he should say!

Just as his words fell, the elder in the main seat suddenly slammed the armrest, scaring all the middle-aged men around to lower their heads.

”Is my grandson speaking nonsense? My grandson has no solutions, is that it? Then why don’t you all tell me, do you have any solutions? Aren’t you the ones who always pride yourselves on being business geniuses? Come on, let’s hear your high opinions.”

As soon as his words fell, everyone fell silent. After the Pinbao Business Association introduced the browsing talisman, they immediately realized the severity of the situation. From that moment, they started researching how to target the Pinbao Business Association, but no matter how much they studied, they couldn’t find any countermeasures.

They had realized a long time ago how quickly the Pinbao Business Association was rising, but back then, they could still imitate them by doing whatever Pinbao Business Association did.

But now, they couldn’t even imitate.

Not to mention, they didn’t have such a Heavenly Ranked Treasure.

After a long while, a somewhat frivolous-looking man in the crowd spoke, ”Or we can hire people to disrupt them. After their treasures are ordered, they leave them, right? We could have all our business association members buy them, but we won’t actually go to purchase them.

In this way, others won’t be able to buy things, so naturally, they won’t go to the Pinbao Business Association anymore.”

As soon as he finished speaking, someone immediately chimed in, ”Not feasible, the Pinbao Business Association has mentioned that if you order twice and don’t check out, you’ll be blacklisted.”

”Brother, you also said, only after ordering twice will you be blacklisted. What about the first time? Consider how many people our entire business association has. Even not counting those ordinary shop clerks without mana, it’s still a terrifyingly large number.
