Chapter 107: Pulling the Family to Beat Soy Sauce (I)
The cause of all the troubles was the auction, which is not to say that the auction was not successful...... On the contrary, the auction was a great success, and every piece of enchanted equipment that Rare took out sold for a satisfying high price.
In addition to the auction, there are also several large orders in a row, each of which made the Crimson Constellation earn a lot, and as a result, the income was counted after the worst, deducting all kinds of miscellaneous costs, putting aside the messy expenses, and the net profit after the most was a shocking number.
As a result, some people's minds began to come alive.
Of course, this is not a strange thing, the so-called people go to high places and water flows to low places, the crimson constellation was oppressed by the bellflower before, and even survival has become a big problem, and now it is a 180-degree reversal, not only successfully getting rid of the shadow of the bellflower, but also faintly dominant, such an achievement in the past seems to be enough for them to be satisfied.
But is that really enough?
Just kidding, the nature of human beings is to constantly strive for a better level, and the word satisfaction will almost never appear in human beings, at least, it will never appear in a group of people in their thirties who are in the prime of life and are full of only thinking about hard work.
So, someone proposed to use this income to do a big vote!
The speed at which the bellflower chamber of commerce collapsed was too fast, so fast that it didn't give people time to react, and when they came back to their senses, they found that this old chamber of commerce, which had been rooted in Solancia City for decades, had actually fallen apart overnight, which also caught many people off guard, such as those suppliers who had a good relationship with the bellflower chamber of commerce.
The so-called Chamber of Commerce is an organization formed by gathering many businessmen, and the biggest job of the so-called businessmen is just to buy things, right. It is to buy the east and sell the west, buy the specialty products that are abundant in a place at a cheap price, and then sell them at a high price in a place where such things are scarce, so as to obtain the difference between the two.
This may sound simple, but in fact it is not the case, and the first and most critical issue is the supplier and the seller. Without a reliable supplier, you can't buy good goods even if you have money, there is no good sales channel, and the goods that can't be sold are just a pile of garbage that occupies the warehouse.
The current Crimson Constellation is not a headache in the sales channel, the key is that the speed of supply is almost unable to keep up, and they are used to small businesses such as daily necessities and special products, and they suddenly taste the big profit business of enchanted equipment and magic potions, of course, they are gradually looking down on those small businesses with small profits in the past.
Now that the bellflower chamber of commerce has just collapsed, their suppliers have not yet found a new partner. The Crimson Constellation immediately took action, won over these suppliers as quickly as possible, and beat the name of the Crimson Constellation out of the mouth in one breath, this is only the first step, the purpose is to show their current strength and heritage to their peers, and the second step is naturally to use the strength and heritage displayed in this part to absorb more partners.
"That's the problem. A veteran member said that he had pulled a big deal. It was a batch of good spices, and although the receiving price was a little higher than the average purchase price in the market, it was not too much, so we totaled it and decided to eat this batch of spices, if this business was done. I'm afraid the profits are not under that auction! ”
As soon as this passage came out, Riel roughly knew what the problem was, after all, Riel provided the enchantment equipment when it was almost a costless business, and he only needed a little basic cost and a meagre income dividend, and the rest of the income went to the Crimson Constellation.
This made the auction particularly profitable. And if the profit of this batch of spices can reach the level of that auction, it means that the cost of acquiring this batch of spices will be very large, and if it is successful, of course, everything will be fine, but if something goes wrong with this batch of spices......
Riel sighed deeply, and sure enough, Sapphiri spoke right after.
"This batch of spices was purchased by our men a week ago and shipped to Solancia City, but, but ......"
However, halfway through the delivery of spices, he was attacked by a group of monsters, and these monsters didn't know what medicine they had taken wrong, one or two fierce and abnormal, which was very different from the monsters encountered in ordinary days, and the Crimson constellation knew that this was a big deal, so it was also a bloody investment in transportation, and there were thirty combat professionals escorting them, even if they encountered ordinary monsters, they should be able to protect themselves.
But the problem is that this ticket is not an ordinary monster, they seem to be purely for destruction, yes, without any clear purpose, just purely for the sake of sabotage, as a result of a big battle, not to mention the heavy casualties on the side of the Chamber of Commerce, and a carriage transporting goods was completely destroyed, and the goods in it were destroyed, and among this carriage, it happened to be the one transporting spices.
Originally, this time the convoy had a full seven trucks, only one of which was loaded with high-priced spices, and the other six cars were loaded with some hidden things, although they were also goods, but the value was not even one percent of the cart of spices, which was a maze that could be discarded in order to protect the most important goods when they encountered trouble, but who expected that the group of monsters were so lucky or that the luck of everyone was so bad, one in seven probability, so that they just destroyed the truck containing spices.
Riel was silent for two seconds before he spoke in a suppressed voice.
"How much money did the Chamber of Commerce lose this time?"
First of all, the batch of spices was completely lost, and in addition, the loss of the convoy, the pensions of the injured, and other bits and pieces of various expenses were all added up, and the Crimson Constellation lost a total of ......
“…… Five thousand seven hundred and forty gold, we lost nearly six thousand gold coins this time."
“……”
Six thousand gold coins, it is already a huge amount of money in this world, Rao is some profound big chamber of commerce, such a heavy hemorrhage is enough to make them breathless for two or three years, not to mention the crimson constellation, which has just killed a strong enemy, and has recovered a little bit and barely squeezed into the new tender of the big chamber of commerce?
The funding gap of six thousand gold coins is enough to cause a devastating collapse of the internal turnover of the Crimson Constellation Chamber of Commerce, and if you can't find a way to fill this gap, the consequences will be unimaginable.
"Riel, Riel...... What am I going to do now? ”
As the president, Safilie's current pressure on her body can be imagined, and Riel can only sigh silently, but she already has a plan in her heart.
"An, there is a saying in my hometown, called a blessing is not a curse, it is a disaster that can't be avoided, if you want me to say, the Chamber of Commerce encounters this trouble is also an opportunity to learn, people always have a time to make a mistake, just fall and get up, don't panic because of such a small setback, you are the president, if even you are panicked, what should others do?"
After that, Riel smiled softer.
"Wait for me for three days, you work hard to hold on for three days, and after three days, everything will be settled by me!"
The categorical tone, with an indescribable confidence, is like the Crimson Constellation before when it was in a big disaster, swaying in a trouble, and turning the tide, and opening a way out of an unfavorable situation, the attitude of the chest, as if with infinite contagion, unconsciously made people affected by him.
So, Safili on the other side also responded obediently.
"Well, I see, by the way, there is one more thing ......"
“?”
Riel was also strange that there was something else that Sapphiri hadn't said, and listening to her tone, it didn't seem to be a problem, but between her tones, her voice was getting quieter and quieter.
“…… I've always felt weird when you're not here during this time...... Please, come back soon, I'...... I miss you so much."
After saying this, the communication was completely cut off, obviously there should be time left, but it seemed that Safili herself cut off the communication, in this regard, Riel also shook his head with a smile, and while taking back the invalid communication crystal, he silently whispered a sentence.
“…… Stupid, I miss you too, just wait, I'll be back right away, right away! ”
As soon as he finished speaking, Riel felt someone reach out and tug at his collar, and from an angle, it seemed that it was only Naia in his arms who could do this.
"What's wrong, Naia?"
The silver-haired little Lori raised her head slightly, tilted her head and spoke.
"Hmm, big brother, are you leaving?"
Riel nodded earnestly.
"Well, this is not my home, so, now I'm going back, back to my 'home', rest assured, I won't leave you alone, go back with me~"
In this regard, Naia nodded lightly and smiled, and the moment the little Lori's smiling face bloomed, even the artificial sun above her head lost its color.
"Big brother's home is Naia's home, no matter where she goes, Naia must follow her big brother, this time, I won't let you leave Naia alone...... Absolute! ”
So, it seems that I really can't find a reason not to go back, so hurry up and prepare, the Enstein Teleporter, there is a ready-made one in the city of Endymion, the energy can be provided by the Star Vein Furnace, except for the two to three days it takes to start, other problems can be handed over to the Teleporter to settle by itself, and after three days...... Back to Sorencia! (To be continued......)
