Chapter 526 The Grand Ceremony Begins
Regarding President Qing Ru’s words, President Bai Lan was somewhat puzzled; he was unclear as to what Qing Ru was referring to. However, it wasn’t appropriate to ask too many questions in such a setting, so he chuckled awkwardly and changed the subject.
"That young person beside President Qing Ru looks very familiar," Bai Lan said, focusing his gaze on Jing Yan.
"President, that person’s name is Jing Yan. He came to our Golden Sparrow Commerce two months ago wanting to be our spokesperson," a director of Golden Sparrow Commerce said, squinting his eyes and chiming in.
"Ah, now I remember why he looks so familiar. It’s unexpected that Alchemist Jing Yan didn’t end up being a spokesperson for my Golden Sparrow Commerce, yet he ran off to become the spokesperson for your Youhai Commerce, President Qing Ru," Bai Lan pretended to recall suddenly.
Qing Ru glanced at Bai Lan and thought to herself, you’re laughing merrily now, but I reckon you won’t be able to laugh after the Alchemy Conference.
"President Qing Ru, as Alchemist Jing Yan is the spokesperson for your Youhai Commerce, I wonder how much compensation you gave him?" Bai Lan then asked with another smile.
"President Bai Lan, it’s not quite proper for you to inquire about such matters. You should be aware that this is confidential information of the commerce guilds. However, since I’m so acquainted with you and you’re no stranger, it’s no harm telling you since you asked. Our Youhai Commerce hired Alchemist Jing Yan as our spokesperson, and the compensation is twenty million Spirit Stones," Qing Ru revealed with a flash in her eyes.
"Hisss!"
Hearing this, the smiles on the faces of Bai Lan and the others instantly froze, their expressions filled with shock.
It was beyond their imagination that Youhai Commerce would offer Jing Yan such a hefty price of twenty million Spirit Stones to endorse them.
