Chapter 619: Chapter 619: Master of the Amber Tower
The Treasure Tower is known as the richest sect among the seven great sects.
Someone made an estimate and considered that, if the Treasure Tower were excluded from the seven great sects, half of the wealth of the other six sects would barely match the wealth of the Treasure Tower.
Almost no one questions this claim, and if anyone does, it's only because they think the estimate is too low.
Compared to common cultivator sects, the Treasure Tower is more like a large-scale country.
Merchants from all over the southern part of the Nine Heavens Continent come here to do business.
Every time these merchant ships dock and unload their goods, for the Treasure Tower, it means a huge sum of money entering its coffers.
"Every time I see it, it seems impressive. It's spiritual stones floating in the sky... If our sect could be like that, it would be incredible."
While flying through the air, Nangong Ying looked at the merchant ships above with some envy.
For her, earning spiritual stones wasn't necessarily for any particular purpose.
It didn't have to be a specific amount either.
She just liked the process of earning spiritual stones, investing, and gaining profits.
"Businesses that really make money don't depend on this."
Seeing Nangong Ying's anxious expression, Tang Yu smiled, placed his hand on her shoulder, and started to act mysterious.
"So, what is it?"
Nangong Ying showed a curious expression.
After these ships unload at the Treasure Tower, prices increase considerably before being sold elsewhere.
Could there be a more profitable and stable business than this?
"There are many. For example, take this Lunar Star Flower I have in my hand. Under certain circumstances, just one of these flowers can be sold for hundreds of superior quality spiritual stones, and people would still be competing to buy it."
Tang Yu casually took out a flower that emitted a faint starry glow and smiled.
This flower is an ornament. If planted in large numbers in a garden, at night, it would make the place look as beautiful as the Lunar Palace.
"Really?"
Nangong Ying scratched her head, puzzled. "So, when I go back, should I store a few?"
"That requires specific circumstances. Right now, it's not possible."
Tang Yu shook his head, smiling.
These types of financial games, like the 'pass the flower' game in modern society, require enough capital to make them work.
Or, if one were more unscrupulous, they could wait to accumulate enough spiritual stones, start a bank, and use a Ponzi scheme to make even more.
In the world of business within cultivation, these unscrupulous tactics make earning money too easy.
The problem is, it's too easy to make enemies and end up dead, so he wasn't interested in doing such things.
"And what kind of specific circumstances are those? Do things like that really happen? If it ever happens, remember to let me know, little brother."
Nangong Ying clung to Tang Yu's arm with a charming smile.
Feeling the softness on his arm, Tang Yu couldn't help but admire in his heart that his older sister was getting better at using seduction tactics and smiled.
"The specific circumstances are simply making everyone believe that the Lunar Star Flower is worth a lot and that its value will continue to rise."
"Will that work?"
Nangong Ying was still not entirely convinced.
"Of course it will work. As long as there's enough money and more people can be attracted to the game, it can be done. For example, if five of the seven great sects joined forces to do this, they could inflate the market... although in the end, a bunch of people would get scammed."
Tang Yu chuckled.
If he really did this and they found out later, he surely wouldn't escape the nickname "the biggest scoundrel of the Nine Heavens Continent."
"Distinguished guests, just ahead is the Star Catcher Tower, where our tower master resides."
The disciple from the Treasure Tower, who was guiding them, led them to an imposing building and informed them.
The Star Catcher Tower had a total of ninety-nine floors and was the residence of the Treasure Tower across generations.
Only the highest-level guests could come here to negotiate.
The higher they went in the tower, the more important the business being discussed.
For merchants coming from all over, just getting to the tenth floor was considered a supreme honor.
Standing beneath the imposing and majestic Star Catcher Tower...
Tang Yu...
He remembered the skyscrapers of modern society and felt a slight nostalgia.
According to the time ratio of a thousand to one...
Barely any time would have passed at home, and he didn't know how Jun Zhuo would have explained his disappearance.
While Tang Yu was lost in thought, a woman of absolute beauty stepped out from the doors of the Treasure Tower.
The woman had long golden hair that almost touched the ground, wore a white dress with side slits, and white stockings that hugged her long legs.
Her appearance radiated a seductive aura, and at the same time, an ethereal essence, two opposing qualities that surprisingly merged in her, enhancing her allure even further.
Seeing the woman, even Nangong Ying couldn't help but glance at her several times. Among all the beauties she knew...
Only the Tower Master Amber of the Treasure Tower, whom she deeply admired, could compare to her own older sister.
Hmm... although if she compared herself to her, she was still a tiny bit... just a tiny bit short.
"Miss Nangong, long time no see. This young man must be Tang Yu?"
The woman of incomparable beauty approached with a smile and greeted both of them cordially, her gaze curiously landing on Tang Yu.
Just as the reports she had received stated.
This genius prodigy with an innate talent for business was, indeed, a handsome young man of unmatched beauty.
Had she known there would be such a colossal talent among the new disciples, she would have made time to recruit him personally.
"Greetings, Master Amber."
Nangong Ying greeted her cheerfully before turning her gaze to Tang Yu.
Tang Yu also smiled and greeted her, looking directly at her before commenting:
"The white dress and stockings of our Hehuan sect perfectly match Master Amber."
Although his older sister Nangong's legs were flawless...
Master Amber's legs had more volume, and with those tight stockings, the effect was simply spectacular.
For men...
Beauty was very important.
But sensuality was an even more crucial factor!
"I also love them. I thank the gentleman for creating these garments, they are truly surprising. If in the future you design any new models, please let me know. I'll send someone to buy them immediately, no matter the price."
Master Amber smiled faintly as she accepted Tang Yu's compliment. Since she saw these garments, it could be said that it was love at first sight.
Then, with a simple movement of her hand, the environment immediately changed, and suddenly they were at the top of the Star Catcher Tower.
Nangong Ying opened her eyes wide, realizing they had reached the top.
As far as she knew, throughout the history of the Treasure Tower, no one had ever been allowed to go to the top.
