Beautiful CEO's Super Expert-Chapter 1686: Vision

It wasn't long before he arrived at the Yuntong Commerce Guild!

When he got to the guild, he found quite a few people inside, most of them there to buy the two types of newly launched elixirs!

Although An Ruyan had drastically raised the prices, business was still very good!

Of course, it wasn't as booming as it had been in the first few days!

Su Chen had been here several times and was familiar with some people from the Yuntong Commerce Guild!

"Mr. Su, you're here!"

Guo Yongyi said with a cheerful smile upon seeing Su Chen.

To him now, seeing Su Chen was like seeing a family member, so intimate and familiar!

Without a doubt, it won't be long—maybe a few months or half a year—before he certainly gets a promotion!

And all of this was thanks to the young man before him!

"Is Miss An here?"

Su Chen casually asked.

"She's here!"

Guo Yongyi quickly responded, knowing that Su Chen wasn't there to see him!

Su Chen then went straight to the third floor to An Ruyan's office!

"Oh, Mr. Su, what brings you here today?"

Seeing Su Chen, An Ruyan's beautiful eyes instantly flashed with a charming smile, as captivating as ever!

She was somewhat surprised that he hadn't come by when the elixirs first went on sale, such an important occasion!

"Of course, I'm here to see Miss An!"

Su Chen replied with a slight smile as he sat down casually.

"By the way, I just took a look downstairs, and the prices seem different from what you originally mentioned."

Su Chen asked, curious.

Previously, An Ruyan had told him that Human Level Low Grade elixirs were going to sell for three Spirit Stones each, and Human Level Middle Grade elixirs for eight Spirit Stones each!

But now, both had doubled in price!

Of course, the Spirit Stones referred to were of Supreme Grade!

"It was simply because the initial pricing made them sell too well!"

An Ruyan spoke leisurely and then glanced at Su Chen.

The initial reaction of most people hearing this would be to think: this An enchantress is certainly wicked!

But truth be told, in business, it's understandable!

Anyone wiser would realize that such a price increase would inevitably keep many customers out!

On the surface, it might not seem like a smart move!

Su Chen pondered for a moment and immediately understood the deeper intention, giving An Ruyan a knowing look!

"Hats off, hats off!"

Su Chen couldn't help but praise!

"Looks like Mr. Su understands my motive!"

Her eyes lit up beautifully as she smiled at Su Chen.

She hadn't expected him to grasp her intention and purpose so quickly, showing great appreciation, as if meeting a kindred spirit!

That clerk had some decent thoughts, but ultimately his vision was too limited!

She thought to herself:

My instincts were right; although this man's cultivation might be a bit lacking, his mind is truly exceptional!

If positions were swapped, she might not have comprehended the intricacies so swiftly!

She was in the midst of the situation and realized something was amiss after a few days, prompting her to adjust the pricing!

Actually, it's simple; if the Yuntong Commerce Guild maintained those prices, the sales would've been too blazing!

The consequence would have been nearly monopolizing the Human Level elixir market in Guangping City!

And so, how would other guilds survive?!

This would lead to all other guilds uniting against the Yuntong Commerce Guild!

If it happened in Guangping City, it would undoubtedly be the same in other cities!

Though the Yuntong Commerce Guild was undeniably powerful, if all guilds in different cities united, it could be unsustainable!

With An Ruyan raising the prices significantly, a portion of the market is relinquished, giving others a chance to survive!

Although there are fewer people, wealthy individuals are plentiful; they will still buy since the effectiveness and absorption are evident!

Moreover, with the price hike, the profit margin also increased!

Overall, the loss of revenue isn't as significant as imagined!

The most important thing is that other guilds will perceive the Yuntong Commerce Guild as benevolent and righteous!

This union of opposition becomes very unlikely!

Realizing all of this, Su Chen couldn't help but admire An Ruyan's vision and wisdom!

Despite being an enchantress, she's an admirable enchantress!

He feels even more relieved now!

"By the way, what's the reason for your visit today?"

An Ruyan asked with a smile, noticing that Su Chen didn't seem interested in business!

"I'm looking for an alchemy cauldron; it shouldn't be too difficult for your Yuntong Commerce Guild, right?"

Su Chen replied with a gentle smile.

"No problem, what kind are you looking for? Spiritual Artifact-level is fine, but if you're looking for Treasured Weapon-level, it might take some extra time, though it shouldn't be a big issue!"

An Ruyan thought for a moment and said casually:

"As for anything higher, that I can't guarantee!"

Su Chen was a bit surprised upon hearing this, realizing the Yuntong Commerce Guild's complexity!

After all, weapons reaching Treasured Weapon-level are immensely valuable, what more for an alchemy cauldron!

Perhaps there are some Treasured Weapon or even higher-level alchemy cauldrons on the Yunxiao Continent, but who would actually disclose them to a guild for sale?

Considering that the value of an alchemy cauldron can compare to a higher-level weapon!

Later, Su Chen smiled and said:

"A Spiritual Artifact-level one would suffice!"

To note, Su Chen had been using Magic Artifact-level ones; although an alchemy cauldron plays a role in alchemy, it's not immensely impactful!

Ultimately, alchemy relies primarily on an alchemist's Dao proficiency and elixir recipes, including the factor of fire!

The cauldron is usually secondary to these other conditions!

Moreover, a Spiritual Artifact-level cauldron is good enough; Su Chen is quite satisfied with it!

"Also, could you help prep some materials for me?"

Su Chen asked with a smile.

An Ruyan handed him a paper and pen, letting him write it down.

"Sure, no problem."

Moments later, An Ruyan took the list Su Chen had written down and agreed promptly.

"By the way, when are you planning to mention that previous request of yours?"

An Ruyan asked with a soft smile.

Thinking back, she understood that Su Chen hadn't brought it up yet, likely because they were unfamiliar with each other and lacked trust!

"Well, I can talk about it now!"

Su Chen replied with a gentle smile; actually, he was ready to bring it up even if An Ruyan hadn't mentioned it!

"It's like this: I have some friends who got separated. They should be somewhere in the Yunxiao Continent, but I'm unsure about the exact location, so I hope you can assist me!"

Su Chen stated earnestly.

"Do you have any portraits?"

An Ruyan asked.

"I do!"

Su Chen then took out twenty or so photographs, all of the women from the manor, taken before their departure!

After all, Su Chen hadn't planned on bringing the women with him initially, and these photographs were for moments when he missed them to take a look!

As for Ji Ping and the others, he skipped those, as they were just some men!
