Chapter 420: Aid
Sean shook his head and said: "You don't have to blindly compliment me, this is just a rough idea, if you want to really stand up, there are still many difficulties, such as the commission mechanism, such as the risk assessment in the business process, such as the reputation file promotion mechanism, such as the welfare package, such as the accident investigation mechanism, Bounty mechanism and so on, these are not open mouths can come out, must be combined with the actual situation, the corresponding regulations must be formulated, only a relatively perfect system, in order to really make this idea a reality, but these things, I can't help you, after all, I don't know the mercenary market, nor do I know your specific interests and risks, these can only rely on yourself. ”
"Haha...... If the lord has done everything, what else do we need to do?" said President Simon, patting his chest, "We'll take care of the rest, if we can't even handle this, we won't have the face to sit in this position." ”
"That's right, the lord has shown us the way, and if we don't do well, we will betray your trust in us. ”
"We'll take care of the specific operation ourselves, but we'll need the help of the lord to check it when the time comes. ”
"Lord, just wait and see, we will definitely live up to your expectations. ”
Several other presidents also stood up one after another and expressed their ambitions.
The overall strategy, Sean has already helped them think about it, if they still can't do it well, then it is really a problem with their ability, it is better to let Xian as soon as possible to prevent everyone from being delayed.
"There is no doubt about the ability of the presidents, and the development of our chamber of commerce to the present is the best proof of this. Sean pressed his hand, made a posture of sitting, and added, "This matter is not a handful, it needs to be done step by step, you can carry out a pilot on the existing basis, and wait to verify the feasibility, the system will be perfected, and then it is not too late to fully launch it, after all, our main task now is to stabilize the current trade territory, don't we work hard to broaden the channels, and make wedding dresses for others." ”
"This lord doesn't need to worry, it's just a group of beam-jumping clowns, who see that we are profitable and want to imitate our model, but they can't play at all, they only see a little bit of skin, and they don't understand the reason why we can really become stronger and bigger. Jonnasheng turned around and comforted Sean.
"Don't be so optimistic, the wealth is moving, the people who entered the market before were just a group of people without roots, if there was enough wealth involved, and those lords and nobles were also red-eyed, put down their shelves and enter? "Sean is not worried about the ordinary people, but about the privileged classes of this world.
Those lords and nobles did look down on the profession of merchant, and that was because they did not taste the benefits of it.
Once they find that the output is much higher than the output of the territory, it is time for them to enter on a large scale, and never overestimate their discipline.
The five chamber presidents looked at each other, as if they could see the horror in each other's eyes, these people from the bottom of the hierarchy, they had a deep understanding of the cruelty and greed of those lords and nobles, and there was a kind of fear that went deep into their bones, they had been squeezed for too long.
Qiang Nasheng smiled and said, "Don't we still have the lord and the princess?"
"We can help you carry the overall situation, but it is difficult for us to help with those small and medium-sized means in private. Sean said meaningfully.
"Don't worry, Lord Lord, we know what to do, it's nothing more than a matter of concessions, we will try to keep a low profile in the future, and try our best to let those local lords and nobles get a piece of the pie, to prevent or slow down the pace of their personal efforts to make money, do business, and give up to get it!"
"It's good that you can understand the truth, eating alone is delicious, but it is easy to provoke more enemies, don't be blinded by interests and hatred, we call the Valesta Chamber of Commerce, not the Andes Chamber of Commerce, since anyone who is sincere in business, we can accept them with open arms. That's what Sean really wants to say.
Feng Shui takes turns, and now it's not those local merchants who are arrogant and unwilling to join the Valesta Chamber of Commerce, but these descendants of the Andes, who are in a group, don't give them such an opportunity, and want to monopolize the entire market.
But the problem is that many of those local merchants are the spokesmen of those lords and nobles, who come to make money for them.
Blindly shutting them out, annoying the people behind them, who knows what they will do.
"We know what to do, my lord. The five presidents nodded understandingly.
"I'm here today and I want your help with one more thing. Sean stopped at the point, believing that they were all smart people, and they should know what to do the most right, and if they insisted on dying, he would not be able to save them.
"The lord is too outward, if there is anything directly ordered, whether it can be done or not, we will do our best. Simon was the first to pat his chest again.
"Her Royal Highness Princess Sophilia, you should already know about the speech you gave in the palace square, right?" asked Sean.
"Of course, all Valesta is talking about this matter now, this is a big matter related to the future of the Lancelot royal family and Valesta, I heard that this matter is still because of the lord, this can really make a face for us Andes, even the griffin can be found in a legendary creature that has disappeared for hundreds of years. ”
"We were also in the crowd of onlookers, and we witnessed the appearance of the lord, the princess, and the prince. ”
"Your Excellency doesn't want to talk about the next three days of carnival, does you?"
"That's right, it's the matter of the carnival in the next three days, because His Highness's decision is a bit hasty, the preparation is not particularly sufficient, whether it is manpower, food and wine, there may be a shortage of manpower, food and wine, and you will need your assistance to share the pressure at that time, but rest assured, the palace will be responsible for the bills consumed in these three days. Sean got straight to the point.
"Isn't this a slap in the face, my lord? It is our greatest honor to be able to serve Her Royal Highness the Princess, how can we be reimbursed by the palace for things that we could not ask for before? From tomorrow, when all our business and trade activities are stopped, we will concentrate on this one thing, no, from now on, we will have as much strength as we can at that time. ”
"It's our greatest honor for the lord to think of us, and it's too late for us to thank the lord!"
"Don't mention the bill, we can still afford this consumption, my lord, just wait and see! ”
Just as Sean predicted, the five presidents not only did not feel blackmailed, but their faces were red with excitement, this was a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity, a chance to close the distance between them and the princess regent, although to some extent it was just their wishful thinking.
But this kind of good thing was not available before.
Sean was just polite and polite, and he wasn't really ready to take the bill.
The end result was a joy for both parties.
Sean gets the help he wants and will save face in front of the princess regent.
The merchants of the Valesta Chamber of Commerce will be given the opportunity to serve the Princess Regent, which may seem like a loss, but as a group of smart merchants, they will make full use of this relationship to earn more, not necessarily money, but things that money can't buy, such as fame, such as networking.
Sean politely declined the invitation of the five Chamber of Commerce presidents to dinner, and he had another thing to do, ready to light a fire for this New Year's feud and take it to new heights.
The reason why power is intoxicating is because your every move is no longer related to a person, but to the joys and sorrows of a group of people or even a city.
Sophia's impromptu decision brought Valesta into the carnival atmosphere ahead of schedule.
After most of the day, the atmosphere reached its peak at midnight, when the bakeries and taverns that are inextricably linked to the royal family were all hung up with free signs, and the citizens drank heartily while chanting the names of Sophia and Prince Laurie.
At this moment, no matter whether they were dissatisfied with the rule of the Lancelot royal family in the past, they would not be stingy with their praise, because at such times, when they made dissatisfaction in public, they usually dragged and beat them before the brass whistles who maintained law and order came to the door, and those citizens who were drunk with the free drinks of the Lancelot royal family would drag them and beat them wildly.
Every year after Valesta's New Year's Carnival, the vigilante prisons in the streets are filled with all sorts of drunkards, and blood is in some ways part of the revelry.
If Valesta disliked the New Year's carnival the most, it was the bronze whistles of the city security team, and it was a very difficult thing to maintain the law and order of this behemoth, let alone when the people were in a frenzy.
Every year at the New Year's carnival, their nerves are crumbling.
When he heard that this year's carnival would last for three days and three nights, the chief captain of the city security team almost didn't cry, which was simply killing him.
It is his duty to be able to maintain law and order throughout the festival.
If it is not maintained well, if there is a little vicious incident, he will not be able to eat and walk around, and he has been sitting in this position for less than ten years, his hair is half white, and God is pitiful, he is only forty-three years old this year.
When have you ever seen a peak knight who is only one step away from the champion knight, and at the peak of his life, he has become this virtue before he gets old?
After the three days of carnival this year, he is afraid that he will have another handful of gray hair.
Elijah swore that as long as he survived this year, he would resign from the position of captain anyway, well, it was a good excuse to concentrate on attacking the champion knights.
The premise is that he can get through it, otherwise it is not a matter of his resignation, but being pushed to the end, which is two different things.
After receiving the New Year's carnival, which changed from one day to three days, Captain Elijah rushed back to the headquarters as quickly as possible, ready to fight here for three days and three nights.
"Order all security personnel to cancel their vacations and enter their posts, during this period, unless you are breathless, as long as you can climb, you will stick to my posts, and the captains will arrange the duty time, and I will have people stick to all posts for 25 hours. ”
"Yes, sir. ”
"Diff, you personally go to the city guards, bring me a message to General Cornell, no matter how dirty we usually have, we should put it down at this time and cooperate sincerely, otherwise once there is chaos, our security team will not be able to eat and walk around, and their city guards should not want to get out of business, we are all doing things for the royal family now." ”
"Yes, sir. ”
"Invite all the snakeheads and rat kings in the gutter back to me for tea, and tell them that I don't care which lord they have a relationship with, and no matter who they serve for, in the past three days, I will be an honest citizen, not only do it myself, but also restrain the people below to do it, if they dare to cause any trouble for me, before I am killed, I will kill them first, and tell them that I am serious about this matter. ”
"Yes, sir. ”
"Send people to visit all the taverns, merchants, they usually earn enough, now is the time to give back to the people, I hope that in these three days, they will answer the royal call to give food and wine to those citizens for free, I Elijah will remember their kindness. ”
Elijah was able to sit in his current position, and sat for ten years, it was not a fluke, and the ability to adapt was definitely one top one, and he grasped the key point.
On the one hand, he mobilized all his subordinates, and on the other hand, he was looking for foreign aid from the city guards, and then he was beating the most unstable factors in the city, as long as they did not take the opportunity to make trouble, only those ordinary citizens could not cause any big trouble, at most, they drank too much alcohol and played drunken madness, and when the time came, they were arrested, thrown into prison, imprisoned for three days, and after sobering up, they would be honest.
The first three orders, those security soldiers were extremely happy, but the last order, no one dared to answer.
"What's the problem?" Elijah, who had not waited for an answer, raised his head and glanced at his subordinates, and the fierce light was full of light, which made people can't help but think of the wolf king in the wasteland, and it seemed that he would pounce on them and bite their throats at any moment.
The captains looked at each other, and no one dared to respond easily.
A close team leader replied stubbornly: "My lord, isn't it a bit difficult for those shops to provide free food for free? ”
Bang!
Elijah slapped the table and snarled with drooling, "What is difficult for the strong? I call it difficult for the strong? How much oil and water do they usually shave from those citizens? What is wrong with letting them bleed now? Are you the first day to come to the security team? Isn't it clear what the biggest contradiction is in the annual New Year's carnival?
Free food and drink! Not enough free food and drink is one of the biggest sources of unrest, usually only one day, and the enduring will pass, but this time it is three days, three days do you understand, with only the little preparation of the royal family? Can it satisfy everyone's appetite? If I don't find a way to solve this, we don't even know how to die. ”
Elijah almost sprayed directly, how brainless the decision made by the princess regent this time, she opened her mouth, how much sin would the people below suffer?
But even if there is a big grievance in his heart, he can only carry it out honestly, but the people below also follow him, that is, stab his lung tube.
Although he knew that the other party was about to explode, the captain of his cronies still had to continue to bite the bullet and say: "Ordinary retail businessmen can say that they have to give our security team some face, but the Dawn Tavern and the Valesta Chamber of Commerce are a bit troublesome, they both belong to the industry of the Eternal Night Commander, and that Baron of the Eternal Night can speak in front of the two Highnesses." ”
The meaning of this cronie captain is obvious, that is, the backstage of others is too hard, and we can't afford to provoke it.
"I don't care if he is a Baron of the Eternal Night, or an Earl of the Eternal Night, at this time he must focus on the overall situation, if they dare to say nothing, believe it or not, I will personally lead the team every day, find them trouble, let them know who has the final say here, this is Valesta, not their poor country mountain, and a group of mongrels dare to join forces to fight me. ”
As the captain of Valesta's security team, how could Villa not know the doorway inside, and he still needs to be reminded by others, but the problem is that he is now also forced into a corner.
