Chapter 292: Three Big Macs
Dane doesn't believe that those merchants in Shawan Harbor will resist taxes, those merchants are not so stupid, tearing their faces and confronting them head-on, what can they do to Dane?
It can't be anything, but Dane, who has a knife in his hand, can make sure that one of them can be counted as one, and they don't even want to run. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info
Seeing that Dane didn't seem to believe it, Goodale was also a little stunned.
"Which ...... Dane, I've heard about the tax resistance. β
"How's the credibility? Don't be alarmist with me. Dane intimidated him.
Goodale thought for a moment and said, "I don't dare to say with ten percent certainty that this news will be accurate, but there will always be six or seven percent." Moreover, even if they do not resist taxes, there must be other means to be used. β
"Huh." Dane sneered and said, "The soldiers will cover the water and the earth, I don't believe it, those corpses hanging on the road from Shawan Port to the north have not yet dried, and someone dares to provoke me at this time?" β
Goodale said, "Dane, I know what you're thinking. But I think it's really possible that they will take a tax-resistant attitude. They won't be so afraid of your butcher's knife, and your knife won't necessarily actually cut the person it's supposed to be. β
"Huh?" Dane raised his eyebrows and said, "What do you mean by that?" β
Goodale organized his words and said, "Boss Dane, you haven't been in Shawan Harbor, you may not know, but if you ask General Verina, she will definitely understand." The big businessmen in Shawan Harbor who can really speak and call the shots, their power is definitely not only in the port. β
This is something that Dane has been overlooking. He straightened up, and what he held in his hand was also put down: "You can tell me well." β
So, according to his own understanding, Goodale told Dane about the power composition of the Shawan Harbor General Affairs Office.
The General Affairs Office of Shawan Port is a practical administrative body under the Shahai Commercial Guild for Shawan Port. In other words, although they are nominally 'guild-like institutions regulating the commercial activities of the port', in reality they are the real government of the port of Shawan.
This situation was formed before Malone and Morneau's-for-tat battle for the port of Shawan Bay, and it has not wavered for decades.
As a government organization, and a government organization controlled by merchants, their position in Shawan Harbor can be described as deep-rooted. From the shops in the market, to the caravans in the port, to the channels for imports and exports, to the spawning enterprises outside, to the gray and black social organizations underground......
Without exception, all of these are inextricably linked to the Office of Internal Affairs and Communications.
Therefore, if Dane really wants to clean up the General Affairs Office from top to bottom, he will easily cut it all, but the entire port is estimated to be paralyzed immediately.
This is not a problem that can be solved with an army in hand.
Another point is that these big businessmen who really control the lifeblood of Shawan Port are, without exception, almost all of them multinational chambers of commerce.
For example, Goodall's Charr Chamber of Commerce also has interests in Shawan Harbor, and there are powerful voting agents in the merchant guilds. In addition, of the same nature, there are also the Sequoia Chamber of Commerce and the Flash Gold Chamber of Commerce. The former is a large chamber of commerce that spans the kingdom of Pudri and the Duchy of Florence, and the owner behind it is said to be a prince of the kingdom of Pudri.
And the Flash Gold Chamber of Commerce, although it does not have the same background as the former, their sphere of influence is not only the port of Shawan Bay, Cinderella in the north is their base camp, and the business includes Chaos City to the north, the Beast Blood Castle to the east, and even the first in the wasteland further east. The boss of the Glitter Gold Chamber of Commerce, though a pure businessman, is said to have received his patronage from two-thirds of Hindlaire's warlords, including Ozer and Conry.
Coupled with the Charles United Chamber of Commerce, the boss of these three Shawan ports, Dane can move?
Indeed, he can lead troops to raid the General Affairs Office and arrest all the agents of these three chambers of commerce in Shawan Port. Whether it is hanging his head on the city gate or throwing the corpse on the side of the road to dry, it is at the mercy of Dane, but the ensuing anger of the three chambers of commerce, Dane will immediately be unbearable.
Of course, the Chamber of Commerce is just a chamber of commerce, and it is impossible to get the army to come to the city and ask for Dane's life. But they must have the strength to completely destroy Shawan Port and Rotten Wolf Town, two cities that have risen by relying on transportation and commerce, economically, and will definitely make Dainna's commercial plan for the Komyrya Transit Station that has been activated stillborn.
After listening to what Goodale said, Dane did realize that he might have really thought about the situation a little bit before.
Those ordinary merchants in Shawan Harbor who have made their lives in this city can indeed do whatever he wants, and they can do whatever they want, and they can also destroy their families. But for the three super chambers of commerce that have really become giants, it would be naΓ―ve for Dane to just think about threatening people with knives.
He had to adjust his thinking. However, there is no need to tell Goodale how to do it.
Dane said, "Well, okay, I know, you can go back first." β
Seeing that Dane seemed to have listened to his words, Goodall breathed a sigh of relief, nodded, and was about to leave, but when he remembered the matter of Sombra, he couldn't help but have a hesitant look on his face again.
As soon as Dane looked at the look on his face, he knew what the guy was thinking.
"Sombra's agent, I can continue to give you ......"
As soon as these words came out, Goodall's turbulent mood was completely firmed. With a look of great joy on his face, he said, "Boss Dane, thank you so much, I will definitely ......"
He didn't say anything, but was stopped by Dane waving his hand.
"Let's make money together, but I also have to say some things first."
"You say, you say, if there is anything, I will do it."
"Go back, keep an eye on my every move in Shawan Harbor, and if there is anything, go to General Verina at any time to report to me, especially the affairs of the General Affairs Office. I know that you have been in Shawan Harbor for decades, and you have some heels, and there are many things that you don't need to talk about, and you should know what to do yourself. β
Goodale understood that going undercover to Dane at the General Affairs Office in Shawan Harbor was one of the reasons he had to pay. But he didn't hesitate at all, and said directly: "No problem, if there is any news, I will convey it as soon as possible!" β
"Yes." Dane nodded, and said, "In a few days, I will go to Shawan Harbor, and you can bring a message to your Shire Chamber of Commerce's representative who can speak in Shawan Harbor, and I will wait for him in the garrison camp when the time comes." β
