Chapter 534: Untitled (Asking for a Monthly Pass, Asking for a Subscription)
But now it's different, if he lays off people now, then his frame will completely collapse, this storm is a big test, a test of survival of the fittest! Any chamber of commerce that cannot withstand the test of the trade winter and collapses will be a loser.
The winning chambers of commerce will rise up after the winter and regain most of the profits from trade. It was because of this that Andre gritted his teeth and held on!
He knew that if he started laying off people again, then the shelf of the Storm Bear Chamber of Commerce would definitely fall, and then the name of the Storm Bear Chamber of Commerce would be completely played, and he would have no day to turn over.
Therefore, although Andre doesn't know whether he can survive until the cold winter passes, in order not to waste his life's career, he can only resist.
And at this time, the goods brought in by Soram are Andrei's biggest savior!
He had to convince Soram to sell the spices to him, and as for how to convince him, Andrei also had a plan. However, whether he could convince Soram in the end, Andrei had no hope, so he could only resign himself to fate.
Before Andre entered the door, he shook the fat on his body fiercely, rubbed his face a few times, and then entered the door with a smile on his face. It's a matter of success or failure!
As soon as he entered the door, Andrei came to Solam in a ridiculous posture, and after making a noble salute, he said, "It's a great honor to meet you, Your Excellency Solam, and I take the liberty of disturbing you...... Mrs. Nazaire?!!!! ”
Just when Andre was about to say some auspicious words, as soon as he looked up, he found two beautiful women standing next to Solam, and he knew one of them! That's Nazaire!
Nazaire went to the ocean, and after the goods arrived at the port of Carlin, they were directly transported to various parts of the mainland, so they had contacts with chambers of commerce all over the mainland, and Andre was one of them!
After the storm, André had actually sent someone to Port Carlin in the hope that this powerful lady would take advantage of the happy cooperation she had once had, and pull herself in order to get herself through the difficulties.
Andre not only knows Nazaire, but also knows Nazaire's husband Vassim, and the relationship is not bad, when the two of them were just starting out, Andre also helped them a little, otherwise, Andrei's new chamber of commerce would not have become Nazaire's next family later.
You must know that there is never a shortage of goods in the Far East, and to make Andre the next family is to send money to him.
However, when André searched for Nazaire again, the couple disappeared completely. But this is nothing, under the great storm, more people disappeared, and Andrei only thought that they were buried in the sea.
Unexpectedly, today Andrei actually saw Nazaire again in this situation.
Soram was not enthusiastic about this kind of entertainment, and he was bored fiddling with the teacup in his hand there, but this dead fat man shouted like this, which really scared Soram!
So he immediately turned his head to look at Nazaire and asked curiously.
"You know him?"
Nazaire first gave Andrei a smile, then bowed slightly, and said, "Mr. Andrei used to be my business partner. ”
Seeing Nazaire so respectfully to Solam, Andrei immediately became clever. Immediately raised Solam's identity conjecture a few levels.
Although Andre had also inquired about the Nazaire couple, he didn't find out anything, only knowing that the Nazaires were noble and should have come from a big aristocratic family.
Unexpectedly, Mrs. Nazaire, who has this status, is so respectful to a white-haired strong man, and Andrei is naturally impressed by Solam. Although before coming in, Pol had mentioned more than once that the boss of the gang was noble.
But Andre was always a little skeptical, after all, how many big people could Pol have seen? Can he discern what is noble? As for Pol, he said that he came from an old friend, but his old friend also followed Solam, who knows if he put gold on his face?
But looking at this scene now, it is impossible for Andre to believe it.
At this time, Andre also reacted, his actions just now were too rude, anyway, the owner here is Soram not Nazel, even if he knows Nazaire, it is not a reason for him to be presumptuous, so he quickly admitted his mistake.
But fortunately, Soram was not very interested in this, and waved his hand directly to let him say something.
So Andrei could only talk about himself in a squirming way, and he wanted to buy the batch of spices. But who knows, as soon as he said this, Soram interrupted him with a wave of his hand, pointed directly to the two women behind him and said, let him talk to them directly, and left directly with people after speaking.
Andrei is a little unclear about this, so is his attitude to talk about it or not to talk about it? How can it be so casual? Fortunately, one of the two women left behind was Nazaire, otherwise Andre would have been too embarrassed to stay.
Because in Andre's eyes, Solam's style is obviously perfunctory.
Seeing Andrei's expression of gain and loss, Nazaire smiled and said, "Our boss is like this, he is impatient with these trivial matters. These things are all done by those of us below, and they are not intended to be directed against you. ”
Nazaire is a smart and transparent woman, she knows her situation, and she does not feel sorry for herself, even if she was once a noble lady of the Fadleraha family, but now once she decides to eat under Solam, she immediately puts herself in her place, she is just one of Solam's subordinates.
The former glory and wealth are gone with the wind, and time cannot be turned back.
After saying this, Nazel took the opportunity to introduce Isabella, and Isabella nodded to Andre a little crampedly, she had been doing business in Asterkara for a while, and naturally knew the name of the Storm Bear Chamber of Commerce, so she was still a little unnatural in her heart.
She didn't expect that one day, the boss of a big chamber of commerce would appear in front of her in such a low voice.
Andrei's eyes lit up when he heard this! Regardless of whether Nazaire said it is true or not, it is still a lifesaver! No matter how he said it, he and Nazaire were old friends, and there were some things to talk about.
However, Andre didn't rush to talk about these things, but first wanted to talk to Nazaire about family life, after all, they hadn't been in touch for so long, so they should call up the friendship first, and then the rest would be easy to talk about.
"Lady Nazaire, where is Lord Vasim? You don't know, I sent people to Port Carlin three times, the first time to say that you and Master Vasim had gone to sea, the second time to say that you had gone home, and the third time to say that you had gone home, and the third time there was no news, which made me very anxious. ”
This is true, if Andrey, as Vasim's next family, did not have their source of goods, it would have lost a lot of income, how could he not be in a hurry. But fortunately, although he didn't find any of them in the first two times, the goods were still leaving, and it didn't affect his business much, but when he got to the big storm in the back.
That is, everyone has no supply, and it is not just him Andre, so although Andre is in a hurry, he doesn't have much emotion.
"Wasim...... Vasim has already ......, "Now Nazel doesn't have the same heartache as before when he mentions Vasim, but it's still a little sad in the end, and it's about the secret of the Fadleha family, and Nazel doesn't know how to explain it."
Fortunately, Andrei didn't think too much about it, he just thought that Vasim died in that big storm, and the number of people who died along the entire coast in that big storm was at least a hundred thousand, plus the pirates at sea, there were too many to count, and it was not unusual for Vasim to die in this storm.
So seeing that Nazaire was sad, Andre didn't think too much about it, but immediately comforted: "Madam, you can mourn...... It's all to blame for the inexplicable storm that came too suddenly. ”
Hearing Andre think so, Nazaire didn't say anything more, the misunderstanding was a misunderstanding, and it happened that Nazaire, who was in the province, was bothering to lie. She didn't want to have anything to do with the Fadleraha family anymore.
After comforting Nazaire, André finally told him that he wanted to eat the spices.
But as soon as he finished speaking, there was a knock at the door!
It was Wahid's younger brother, and they were responsible for the security of these courtyards, so they took turns to stand guard.
"Miss Isabella, the person you sent to inquire about the news has returned, and brought back a few people, among whom is an old man, who said that he is your old butler, and we don't know each other, so ask you, you ......."
Isabella didn't listen to the man's words at all, so she immediately stood up, didn't even care that the stool under her ass was overturned, and rushed out directly!
It turned out that as soon as Isabella arrived in the port of the ship, she begged Solam to send someone to find her family, Isabella was not really alone when she came to Astercara, she brought more than a dozen family slaves with her, otherwise she would be lucky if she was a little girl who was not snatched away, and what kind of business would she talk about.
When she went to sea, she divided her slaves into two groups, one to go to sea with her, and the other to stay in Astkara. Needless to say, the fate of the group of people who followed her, but she was still a little worried about her old servants, and she also hoped to know their situation, whether they went back or ......
All in all, Isabella can't wait to know their news, those people are Isabella's most trusted people, the relationship is the same as her family, she naturally hopes to get their news as soon as possible, she has experienced so much away from home, and what she hopes most is the company of her hometown.
So Solam sent a sailor who was familiar with Astcala with Isabella's handwritten letter to find out what was going on there, according to the address Isabella had given. Unexpectedly, I really found someone!
"This?" Seeing Isabella rushing out in a hurry, Andre was a little confused, thinking about how this group of people could be so virtuous and frizzy.
