"What about the merchants? Have their numbers really dropped that badly over the course of the month?" Wen Cheng asked the group of elders in front of him.
He was currently in the Disciple's Hall which was also the Elder's hall of the Tiger sect. In front of him were many elders ranging from ones that were in charge of security, and fights, to elders that were in charge of disciples, and rules to elders that were in charge of sales and finances of the sect.
They were all gathered together for the weekly meeting at the end of the week before they took their one day of a break on Sunday.
"Yes, Sect Leader. Ever since the beast hoard attack 3 weeks ago, the merchants have been scared that it will be a repeated thing and have decided to stop selling anywhere for a while."
"It is taking us way too much to convince them to go to other cities with their goods," an elder who was in charge of finance said.
