"Hehe, buddy, Young Master Ye has come all the way to find you with sincerity. Isn't this a bit inappropriate?" Shan Yue coughed twice and winked at Tie Hongshan.

There is no grudge between the Tie family and the Beiwu Alliance. They still have some business dealings and their relationship is pretty good.

Moreover, they are old acquaintances. Due to this relationship, he really couldn't bear to see Tie Hongshan and the Tie family go further and further down the road of death.

The Prince of Chu in front of you is the kind of person with whom you get along well. You treat him with sincerity, and he treats you without any ambiguity.

If you need help in the future, as long as it is not unorthodox or against the law, people will definitely help you if they can.

The reason why he came today is simply because the scale and strength of the mines owned by your Tie family in Northern Xinjiang can meet his needs, otherwise he would not have come to visit in person to discuss the acquisition.

The Tie family is now just like the old stubborn ones in the alliance before, complacent, only focusing on the present and interests, and greedy.

He wanted to help Tie Hongshan today. If the other party didn't appreciate it and insisted on doing so, he would have nothing to say. This might be the fate of the Tie family.

Tie Hongshan's voice sank slightly, and he said with some displeasure: "Alliance Leader Shan, your Beiwu League has many affairs to attend to. You are so busy that you may not understand much about business matters. Merchants should be honest in doing business. Since you have breached the contract, you must pay the other party a penalty, and time is more expensive than money."

"I have no choice but to resort to this desperate measure because Young Master Ye is in urgent need of this batch of ore. If Young Master Ye is not in a hurry, you can wait a little longer. The Tie Family guarantees that this batch of ore will be delivered in full according to the contract time."

As he spoke, he cast his gaze on Shen Yian's face, wanting to see what decision the young master of the Bei'an Chamber of Commerce would make.

He is not afraid of the other party relying on force to exert pressure. The other party is the young master of the chamber of commerce. If any bad rumors spread from him, it will have a significant impact on a large chamber of commerce like the Bei'an Chamber of Commerce.

Especially since this is Northern Xinjiang, his Tie family has been deeply rooted here for generations and still has quite a bit of influence. In the future, the Bei'an Chamber of Commerce's business in Northern Xinjiang might not be as good as before.

Another point is that the warriors in the northern border will not tolerate such an outsider acting arrogantly here.

Shen Yian lowered his eyes and looked at the teacup in his hand, chuckling, "What Patriarch Tie said makes sense, but I don't know how much more liquidated damages we have to pay. Another thing is that the sale of ore must be approved by local officials and recorded."

"Since the Tie family had a contract with the Chamber of Commerce, it means that it has been approved by local officials. Now they suddenly sell it to me. If the higher-ups investigate, it will be difficult for the Tie family to explain, right?"

"Hahahaha!"

Tie Hongshan didn't expect the other party to use this as an entry point, and he couldn't help but burst into laughter. Soon, he stopped laughing, and his somewhat bloated body leaned forward slightly.

"Young Master Ye, everything depends on human effort. Some things are ultimately done by humans. Humans are not inanimate objects. Many things can be adjusted. Your Bei'an Chamber of Commerce is large and has many responsibilities. As the young master, you should understand what I mean, right?"

Shen Yian was quite interested and pretended to be worshipful, "Oh? So, Master Tie must have a close relationship with the local officials in charge of approval? Can such a large amount of ore transactions be changed at will?"

Seeing Shen Yian's eyes shining, Tie Hongshan felt a great sense of satisfaction in his heart. What [Heavenly Sword] [Young Master of Beian Chamber of Commerce], after all, he was just a young brat who had just started out, how could he understand the intricacies of the water.

"Haha, to be honest, Young Master Ye wanted to buy such a large amount of ore, but they didn't even dare to approve it. But they still approved it in the end. Young Master Ye, why don't you guess why?"

Shen Yian put down his teacup and laughed, "Because Patriarch Tie can falsify the amount."

If you falsely report the amount, you will naturally pay much less tax.

Tie Hongshan just smiled and did not give a direct answer.

Everyone's attitude towards this kind of thing is tacit. They will naturally abide by the rules when they should, and sometimes it will be mutually beneficial.

Although the Wuwei Division has been very active in the northern border recently, they are mainly targeting the barbarians, and the supervision of these matters has been relaxed. After all, they are also human beings, and human beings have seven emotions and six desires.

Shan Yue sat aside, drinking tea silently, feeling emotional in his heart. It was only because Tie Hongshan didn't know Shen Yian's true identity that he dared to talk so freely. If he knew, he wouldn't dare to say these things even if he had a hundred courage.

Some dirty things have been done, it's better for you to know it in your heart. To talk about it boastfully like this is just asking for trouble.

Shen Yian raised the corner of his mouth slightly and turned the topic back to smelting equipment and technology. Smelting technology was not a difficult task for the Chamber of Commerce, and it would even be better. The only problem was the equipment. Its manufacturing cycle was very long and required a suitable place. It could not be used just by moving it and putting it there.

E'lai has the smelting equipment inherited from him, but transportation is a big problem. He can't keep running back and forth by himself, so he plans to use local materials to smelt them on site and then directly transport the required metals afterwards.

Tie Hongshan's attitude remained the same and he refused to agree to any price Shen Yian offered.

Then Tie Hongshan suggested buying the smelted metal directly, but the price would be higher.

Shen Yian refused directly. Most of these smelted metals would not meet the requirements of Shenjun and E'lai, and would require secondary refining, which would be more time-consuming and laborious.

In the end, the equipment issue was not negotiated, but the two parties had a very harmonious discussion about the ore transaction, and Shen Yian paid the penalty happily.

The smile on Tie Hongshan's face never disappeared throughout the whole process. He kept praising the Bei'an Chamber of Commerce for its wealth and power. After paying the deposit, he immediately promised that all the ores would be delivered within a few days.

Shan Yue was stunned by how smoothly things went.

No, what’s going on? Has the little ancestor changed his personality?

If it had happened before, the Tie family would have been overthrown long ago!

Shan Yue was still in a daze until the group left the Tie family.

Sitting in the carriage, Shan Yue pinched his arm hard to make sure he was not hallucinating. He couldn't help but ask, "Why?"

Shen Yian shook his head and smiled: "He's stupid and has a lot of money, is that okay?"

If it were someone else, he would have believed it. Shan Yue's mouth twitched, and he suddenly figured something out. It dawned on him that after all these twists and turns, this was the Tie family's last meal!

Once the Wuwei Division intervenes, no matter how big and powerful the Tie family is, it will eventually end up filling the national treasury.

Shen Yian calls himself the young master of the Bei'an Chamber of Commerce, so the real master must be the current emperor.

Think about the things Tie Hongshan said himself, which one was not a capital crime? In the end, the Tie family’s death was indeed not unjust.

What Shan Yue wanted was indeed what Shen Yian wanted to do. As for the matter of confiscating property, the old man would be more willing to do it than him, because the previous noble families that were confiscated, as well as the Murong family that was forced to bleed heavily, all made the old man reap enough benefits.

"The Tie family has a deep influence in the Northern Frontier, and has contacts with some people in the Wuwei Division. I'm afraid they will get wind of it in advance." Shan Yue reminded Shen Yian.

It's easy to deal with the Tie family alone, but if these related forces and local officials unite together, it will be a big trouble. The situation is so tense now, it will be terrible if there is unrest in the northern border.

Shen Yian chuckled, and the image of Li Ping appeared in his mind: "For such a big case, there will be more professional people to handle it. The Tie family can't jump very high."

The old man had the idea of ​​regulating the northern border before, but there were many things involved, and it was temporarily delayed by the Yunchuan incident.

This trip was not in vain. The ore issue was temporarily resolved. He didn't have to worry about what would happen to the Tie family in the future.
