What do you do when you travel to a place and see local goods that are less than one-third of the price near your home, and are of good quality and from the right source?

Chop chop hands, of course...... Ahem, I mean buy, buy, buy.

This kind of price difference is no longer the degree of greed for small and cheap, but the degree to which a large purchase can greatly improve the quality of life of oneself for several years.

The Seymours of Corner City were very rich.

Yes, they are very rich, it is already a tradition to pick up natural lightning stones in the wasteland, even the poorest miners can also bring their children inferior lightning strike stones as gifts and toys, and the Seymour people are also born to like this kind of gemstone jewelry that contains thunder and lightning elements, and both men and women have the habit of wearing horn rings.

In the past, every household just thought that it was a little bit of a store of value, like a gold bar, and more or less had some treasury.

And for the Ash, this natural lightning stone is a real treasure, at least very valuable.

If you have money and cheap goods in front of you, you will naturally buy and buy.

Not to mention high-end building materials, engineering magic armor and other large things, household appliances, children's toys, tobacco and alcohol and other daily necessities have large purchases, and even pesticides, toilet seats and other things, there are large bags with small bags, a clear to take home...... Although most of them are bought back will not be useful for a day.

But how to say it, the mentality of "super cost-effective", "limited", "cheap", ....... cheap is in front of you and you don't have it, is the root of chopping and chopping, buying, buying, buying and buying.

To tell the truth, the things in front of me are really not cheap, the cost price has floated a few layers, the freight and sales manpower costs are all included, and the profit is probably still more than 50%.

But to be honest, compared to the game in Horn City, it must be much cheaper.

Now that the steel locomotive is open, the cost of travel to and from passengers is cheaper, and most importantly, the safety has been greatly improved, so that regular visits have become possible, and with it, of course, there are things such as freight, purchasing, and smuggling.

It is no wonder that the bigwigs in Jiaocheng are preparing to promulgate a new law to allow individuals who enter and exit to pay taxes....... or not only the people can buy and smuggle goods back and forth, but they can completely collapse the current imported goods market in Jiaocheng.

When the merchants paid a heavy tax and entered the city, they found that there were already cheaper similar products in it, as long as they were not stupid, they would not come next time, and then Jiaocheng naturally lost its status as a commercial town.

As for whether New Tonya City is deliberate, it was specifically mentioned in the covenant two years ago that this big project and the only regulations for tourists to come and go....... I said it was just an accident, does anyone believe it.

is still the same sentence, compared with the Ash people who have inherited a lot, seen a lot, and grown a lot, the Seymour people who are still knotting ropes in the first few hundred years are playing scheming and competition, and they are not a grade of opponents at all.

It is foreseeable that even if this "new law" is promulgated to rob money and profit from the hands of the people, while the people's grievances in the city have accumulated significantly, it is impossible to put an end to smuggling or something, and Rorschach himself knows that several official forces are engaged in smuggling, not only Ash's church but also the local bosses in Jiaocheng....... don't expect the lower limit of the "secession warlords", especially when they lack military funds for civil war and seizure of the throne.

Rorschach can already imagine that with the smooth flow of railway transportation and the establishment of new trading channels (openly and covertly), the existing economic system of the entire Jiaocheng will be hit hard, especially since the prices of basic commodities such as clothing and food are only one line higher than similar commodities in Jiaocheng, but the quality of the two is ....... The people are sometimes very cruel, they will shout the banner of supporting the national industry, while picking the goods they feel are of good quality and cheap, in a sense, due to the backwardness of the industrial level and the high production capacity of artificial land, it is inevitable that the national industry of the Seymour people will also be hit hard.

This is not yet dumping at cost price, maintaining high profits can still bring down the opponent's industrial factory, which is a good thing for the capitalists to dream of, and a large amount of dumping is inevitable if conditions permit.

The closure of factories and production industries will bring unemployment, the influx of large quantities of agricultural products will make life difficult for farmers and farmers, and coupled with the increase in taxes....... Rorschach has already seen widespread turmoil in the corner city in the future.

But perhaps this is a good thing for the bigwigs, at least the unemployed workers and peasants are good food for the soldiers, and they have no time to care about anything else at this time when the civil war is on the verge of breaking out.

Yes, the civil war, the contradictions within the corner city have become so fierce that it is natural for a war to break out at any time.

No one is stupid, and the mere existence of New Tonia City on this wasteland will inevitably become a competitor to the Horn City, and the cultural, economic, diplomatic, and military threats are increasing year by year.

The warlords of the "truth" who must first settle the outside world may not reach a consensus, but the current chaotic and mutually delayed tariff, military, and diplomatic situation can be seen by all.

A generation of overlords or something, when Sidion fell, there were more than a dozen warlord bosses who claimed to have inherited his legacy.

Horn City and New Tonia City have an alliance, and they can't attack each other for a limited time, so while the agreement hasn't become a waste paper, it's definitely who is the leading big brother in a civil war first, at least it sounds good.

Today's general situation is in front of us, although they are all a combination of multiple strengths, but due to the relatively stable internal structure and relatively benign competition, New Tonia City is in a period of rapid development, while Jiaocheng is constantly suffering from internal friction and has become much weaker than a few years ago.

However, the representative of the game church accepted the invitation of the Warlord faction in Horn City during this celebration period.
