Li Ran walked up to the podium, which was a very simple stage, just made in the shape of a podium, but overall it was just a rough embryo.

Standing in front of the stage, he suddenly felt a little distressed about the ship girls who were working outside, is it that they have been working silently for the development of the port area in such a humble environment?

Li Ran suddenly understood what he was going to say and what he was going to do when he was standing on the field.

He didn't need any draft, and when he saw the scene in front of him, he already had a draft in his heart, so he motioned for Rodney to start.

Rodney stuck out his tongue mischievously at Li Ran from an angle that no one could see, and when he turned to face the many maritime representatives, his face returned to calm:

"Ladies and gentlemen, be quiet, and now the Admiral below will speak. ”

All the maritime merchants were awe-inspiring, even though they had doubts about Li Ran becoming a major general at such an age, but Rodney was a ship's mother, and she said that the young man in front of her would not lie if he was an admiral.

Every shipwreck will not easily call a stranger a commander, because this means betrayal in the eyes of the shipwive.

This is common knowledge that even ordinary people know, let alone merchants who walk the sea all year round.

Admiral is not a simple title, and the royal family of a land country will not use the title of Admiral, let alone have the right to grant the title of Admiral.

Because the admiral needs to be recognized by the ship's mother, only the person who has formed a bond with the ship's mother is the admiral.

A person who has an Admiral but does not have a ship will not only be arrested by the Admiral Academy Headquarters on charges of crime, because the Admiral's overall network awareness will be the first to discover the fluctuations of the personal Admiral network of each Admiral who has obtained the initial ship, and only those who have a personal Admiral Network recognized by the Admiral's overall network are the real Admirals.

Therefore, the merchants in the venue chose to remain silent after Rodney said this.

After all, Li Ran's clothes and the epaulettes of the major general on his shoulders cannot be faked, once they are faked, not to mention that the gendarmerie girls will immediately bring the gendarmerie and the shipwives to arrest them, and even the mercenary shipwives present may directly choose to detain the counterfeiters directly.

Since none of this happened, it proves that this excessively young man in front of him is the admiral of the general, that is, the manager of the newly opened death route.

For maritime merchants who are interested in traveling between the Pacific Ocean and the Far Eastern theater, it is the best choice to keep their doubts in their hearts.

Li Ran didn't expect these inns to be so good, and he thought silently in his heart, it seems that the identity of Admiral and the rank of Major General are quite effective.

When the venue was silent, Li Ran coughed, and then said:

"There's no microphone, so don't dislike my voice is a little small. ”

Saying that, Li Ran sorted out the thoughts in his mind, this kind of impromptu speech is the most testing of thinking, he looked around, and saw many familiar faces, a few of which were the representatives of the merchants who had eaten behind closed doors in his town guard mansion before.

"Ladies and gentlemen, let me introduce myself first, my surname is Li, my name is Ran, and I am the admiral of Xiguang Town. ”

"Maybe you think I'm too young and have doubts, but that's okay, I can understand it, after all, mediocre people are always jealous. ”

Li Ran's words were unexpectedly arrogant, which Rodney did not expect.

All the merchants also made a low discussion, Li Ran didn't care, and raised the volume a little:

"Is there anything wrong with my words? People who don't even understand respect may not even be as good as memorial!"

"I know that there are many people who have come from thousands of miles, and I know that many of them have a big business association behind them, and I know that there are many people who have listened to some rumors and come with the purpose of inquiry, but no matter what the purpose of your coming to my territory, everything must follow my rules. ”

Li Ran's words reveal that there is no doubt that as a former Chinese soldier, he is proud in his bones, and even if he comes to this world, he can't be wronged by this pride:

"Some people may have thought to themselves by now, why is this young man's tone so arrogant, yes, I am young, but I am now a major general! I am young, but I now have the right to decide whether you can trade on the death route! I am young, but I am standing here to make the rules, and you can only follow the rules!"

These words can be said to have completely subverted the impression of Li Ran by all the shipwives including Rodney, in their eyes, Li Ran has always been a gentle person and a thoughtful person, but today's speech is unusual.

Li Ran looked at the venue that had really blown up this time, and he didn't care:

"To get back to the point, I'm not a particularly patient person, and I hate it when people break contracts, because it's a hassle for such an unpleasant thing to happen, and it's unfortunate that people don't like trouble very much, so I'm going to say a little bit about it today. ”

The merchants had no idea that Li Ran would directly tear the fig leaf, so straight to the point, they all began to frown, and had to re-examine whether it was necessary to cooperate with the Xiguang Town Guard.

Li Ran felt that his throat was a little dry, and his heart was really tired, but after saying cruel things, it was time to give some benefits, he knocked lightly on the auction table, and then said:

"Next, let's talk about the bidding meeting, I'm sure Rodney has made it clear to you, but it's a pity that my ship's mother just complained to me that she was unhappy, so don't blame me for my arrogant tone, some of you don't come here with the goal of win-win. ”

Li Ran paused, then walked among the merchants and began his performance:

"There is a proverb in my hometown that says that the hustle and bustle of the world is for profit, and the hustle and bustle of the world is for profit. ”

"I think all of you here have been walking on the sea for so many years, and you know better than I know how many business opportunities there are in this blue blue. ”

"As far as I know, there must be spice merchants here, and the profit of transporting a shipload of spices from the Nile port in New England to the Qiyun Wharf in the Far East is two hundred percent? ”

Li Ran noticed that the faces of some businessmen were slightly embarrassed, and quickly changed the conversation:

"Of course, I don't mean anything else, I just want to get an explanation for my ship's mother, no matter who talks about the ship's mother in private, I don't care, but please don't let me know who of you criticizes my ship's mother, they are not weapons that only understand force in your eyes, never!"

"Ship Niang, they are my family, I don't care where you got your prejudice from, or what gave birth to the prejudice against the ship Niang, I just want to tell you now, if you want to cooperate with the Xiguang Town Guard, don't doubt what my ship mother said, because what they say is given by me, if you are dissatisfied, you can go directly to me. ”

Li Ran said, his tone was a little softer:

"Many of you here are older than me, and some of the words just now are inevitably a little harsh, I hope you old-timers don't be surprised, I, Li Ran, am not a philanthropist, I believe that you are not, we have our own interests, and the reason why I don't want to beat around the bush is also because of sincerity. ”

"Since you have the patience to listen to me as an arrogant person say this, let's get to the point, everything in the bidding will be carried out according to what Rodney introduced to you, but in order to express our sincerity, I would like to add a preferential policy, that is, ......"

Li Ran deliberately paused here, and then found that the current venue was finally silent, he breathed a sigh of relief in his heart, and then said:

"This regulation is that the top ten representatives who successfully won the bid will enjoy the green channel and enjoy tax exemption for one year as long as it is in the sea area under the jurisdiction of Xiguang Town, as long as it is the sea area under the jurisdiction of Xiguang Town!"

Green channel, tax exemption for one year!

As soon as these two words came out, the entire venue fell into an even more eerie silence.

Garno was stunned, he thought about it for a while, and had to admire Li Ran's methods, he played really well with a big stick in one hand and a radish in the other.

However, before he could applaud his statement, He Hai had already applauded vigorously who was the first to do so.

Li Ran happened to see He Hai, this fat man actually came, and he gave a grateful look.

The merchant representatives present were all elites, and when they saw that Li Ran was so kind to He Hai, they finally reacted.

There was thunderous applause in the venue, Li Ran tidied up his tie, and then walked back to the podium, looking at Rodney looking at himself with a complicated face, he smiled gently, and then after facing everyone again, he stretched out his hand and pressed it slightly:

"Ladies and gentlemen, finally listen to me, I have the honor to meet you again today, so why don't you choose to hold the bidding meeting today officially, you also know that time is money, we save each other some time, what do you think?"

As soon as these words fell, the atmosphere in the venue was completely heated up.

Helena and Emden both have some contact with intelligence work, and the importance of intelligence work lies in the grasp of people's hearts and psychological analysis.

They looked at their admiral's seemingly arrogant speech, but they clung to the psychology of the merchants present all the time, and they glanced at each other, and they both saw the surprise in each other's eyes.

Helena's face was a little complicated, and she whispered:

"I didn't think the Admiral would say that. ”

Emden calmly pushed his glasses, and then said:

"Indeed, it seems that the words are arrogant, but in fact it is only based on the revelation of reality, for those who really want to cooperate, such straightforward words dispel their concerns, and for those who have ghosts in their hearts, it also serves as a warning, has the Admiral also studied psychology?"

"I don't know, to be honest, I don't understand what kind of person the Admiral is. A trace of tenderness flashed in Helena's eyes, and she looked at Li Ran's high-spirited appearance on stage.

I feel that the Admiral is a little handsome now, and it is surprisingly reassuring.
