Chapter 168: Dark Tide Surging (4)
"You're old, ......" Ax asked knowingly, although he guessed the identity of the other party. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info
"James, now the head of the Storm Firm." The old man said kindly, not showing any dissatisfaction with Aix, "I don't know, I can sit down and talk, I'm very interested in you." ”
"Of course, actually, I'm also interested in Storm Firm." Aix smiled and invited the old man to sit down across from him.
"Kid, I don't know what you're doing this time, I don't know if you can tell me. Maybe I can help, but of course, I don't have dragon scales. The old man asked half-jokingly.
"Of course, in fact, you should know very well, the eastern part of the Storm Plains is very barren, although there are some minerals, but there are too many things lacking, and they all belong to the Storm Plains, I think, you should know better than anyone else what life is like for people in the eastern part of the Storm Plains, so I came here just to buy some things and sell some things."
"I don't know what you want to buy or what you're going to sell. Although the Storm Merchant House is not large, the basic goods are still very complete, and for the sake of the people who are also Storm Plains, we will definitely not make your money. James said confidently, not at all like an old man, but giving people a youthful vitality.
"Of course, no problem, Kleist, take out the list I gave you and show it to Mr. James, what a blessing to meet such a noble man!" Aix said happily, as if a hungry beggar had met a kind man, and he was so grateful that tears almost burst out of his eyes.
Seeing Aix's appearance, James was a little confused, but when Kleist's list was seen, he almost didn't tear the parchment in his hand. There is nothing wrong with the goods above, they are all basic necessities, but the price is a bit outrageous, James silently calculated in his heart, plus freight and other expenses, after shipping to the east of Storm Plains, the price of these things is only equivalent to half of the market price.
If the old man heard correctly, what Ax said to Jean and the others was that he hoped to meet a merchant who was half-price for everything, and as a result, this half-price was used on himself.
"There is no problem with the goods, but at this price, it is absolutely not good. Your price, I dare say, no firm can agree. The old man shook his head and said.
Seeing the old man's refusal, Ax was not much surprised, but said with a smile: "Didn't you meet you?" Other comptoirs may not agree, after all, this price may make them lose money, but you are the president of the Storm Comptoir, and if these goods go your route, the freight can be reduced by at least half. It is also very convenient to move goods, and the distance can be cut in half, so if you calculate it this way, you will definitely make money. As a relative of the Storm Plains, living together on the grassland, you don't want to make a huge profit from us! ”
The old man calculated according to Aix's statement, and after removing the taxes from the transit, plus the nearby transfer of goods, the Storm Comptoir could make some money. Moreover, only Storm Comptoir can do it. In other words, Aix's list was originally prepared for him, and even the source of the Storm Merchant House had been calculated.
"Hehe, it's so old." James smiled slightly, then relaxed, leaning back on the couch.
But what do we get? We don't seem to have any benefit in doing so, and none of the benefits you mentioned are enough for me to hold one event. ”
"Kleist." Aix did not waste his tongue, and the benefits were more convincing than anything else. So, Aix suddenly greeted Kleist behind him.
Soon, Kleist pulled out a list again, and then placed it on the table in front of James.
James glanced at Aix, wondering what the hell Ax was up to.
"As I said, I'm going to buy something, and at the same time, I'm going to sell something."
"Sell something?" James picked up the list again, but he remembered that the previous list was all what Ax wanted to buy, so there was no doubt that this chapter was what was sold.
Although James was older, he had good eyes, and with just a glance, he could roughly understand the items on the list and know the value of them.
"Okay, I'll take these two lists." James said directly, and then, putting the two lists together, put them away, and put them in his pocket.
"Everyone knows that war money is the best way to earn, but who knows that the capital of war money is their own life? If you can't get one right, you have to get into it yourself. If it had been a few years ago, I wouldn't have looked at these two lists, even if they were a separate second list, but at this moment, I have to take them together. Sure enough, the afterlife is terrifying! ”
"It seems that you have gained a lot, James!" Just as Ax James finished talking, Duke the big fat consul came over with a glass of wine.
"Alas, the old Ben has lost everything, what are you talking about." James said with a bitter face.
Duke sat down unceremoniously, but this was his home.
"Alright, let's talk, I won't bother you, good luck, old man." James got up, then put it in Duke's ear and whispered, "This is a little fox, you can be careful, I was just pitted." ”
Of course, James's whisper was relative to the music of other places, and as for the content of the conversation, of course, it drifted into Aix's ears word for word.
"Haha, seeing you suffer, I just suffered a loss, it's nothing, maybe I can be happier." Duke said politely.
"Okay, is it okay to talk about it now, I'm here this time, but I came with sincerity, some unfair treatment, don't blame me for turning my face." Aix hadn't forgotten that Jean was the first to come.
"I just thought you young people could talk, and Gene would definitely succeed me." Duke said lightly.
"Okay, let's not talk about this matter, but you owe me an explanation before, so you can't just leave it at that." Ax said unforgivingly.
"Kleist." Ax greeted, and then Kleist tacitly took out a list, but instead of handing it to Duke as before, it was handed to Aix. (To be continued.) )
