Chapter 1031 Coastal Chamber of Commerce (1)
"Don't run! Grab it! β
In the past few days, An Xiaoyu has really seen the barbarism and cruelty in the alien territory, any alien race with a higher bloodline status can bully any existence with a lower status than himself, this is the default basic law in the alien territory, the law of the jungle.
The ragged aliens outside the window had been pushed into the corner by the people who had caught up, and they were kicked fiercely by three or four other aliens, and they could only curl up and endure the violence of the other party. And the aliens passing by around it were as if they hadn't seen anything, and even if they did, they only glanced at them with contempt.
It didn't take long for the besieged alien to leave a few words of bitter scolding in dialect, spit on the alien who looked a bit like an elephant, and turned around and cursed and left. An Xiaoyu could see that these aliens were just looking for a point to release their anger, not because the beaten one really offended them.
In fact, such things abound in Gamai City, and An Xiaoyu saw it more than once in the window, and her window was still facing a street with relatively little traffic. It can be seen how many similar events will occur every day in Gamai City.
When she first saw it, An Xiaoyu might feel a little disgusted, but after seeing it too much, she didn't feel anything, after all, people didn't care about it. When the aliens who were pressed to the ground saw them gone, they slowly got up from the ground, patted the shoe prints on their bodies, and quietly left this side.
The streets regained their tranquility as if nothing had happened.
An Xiaoyu shook her head and didn't say anything. The little fox squatted on the windowsill next to him, looked up at An Xiaoyu's face, and seemed to be thinking about something, but it didn't take long to put it down. Jumping off the windowsill, it rolls on the stall.
Looking down and seeing the little fox's appearance, An Xiaoyu knew that the little guy was urging her to go downstairs to eat. With a sigh, An Xiaoyu tidied up her clothes and hair, went downstairs with the little fox in her arms, came to the counter, and ordered a few of the hotel's signature dishes.
Recently, the customers in the hotel have become accustomed to Ann Xiaoyu's haunts, and after a long time, they have discovered that the so-called Twilight Elves are not really mysterious. At first, you may think that An Xiaoyu is very cold, but slowly you will understand that in fact, she just doesn't like to communicate with people.
Ann Xiaoyu didn't know what kind of state of mind the real Twilight Elf was, and since the administrator said that this was enough, she didn't bother. After eating with the little fox, the messenger of the Aiken tribe came to the hotel, also a servant of the Jade Clan, but not the one he had seen in the office before.
The servant of the Jade Clan came to An Xiaoyu's side and said respectfully, "My lord, the elder invites you to visit the opening ceremony of the Coastal Chamber of Commerce. β
And the opening ceremony? An Xiaoyu is a bit novel, the Aiken people learn the business model of human beings is a complete set, and she thought that the so-called Coastal Chamber of Commerce was just a gathering of everyone, and then they began to take care of themselves. Now it seems that there should still be certain rules and systems.
Nodding, An Xiaoyu followed the servants of the Jade Clan out of the hotel.
The streets on this side of the hotel were already bustling with a large number of aliens from outside, some in horse-drawn carriages, some with tall servants, with huge burdens on their backs, and some in elaborate costumes, surveying the city unscrupulously.
In addition, An Xiaoyu was also keenly aware that in all corners of Gamai City, there were already some battle races that were good at concealing their aura. No matter how high their natural ability is, they have not yet reached the point where they can hide from the current An Xiaoyu.
An Xiaoyu has not been idle in the past few days, and when he was teleported from the imperial capital to the alien territory, An Xiaoyu's law of cause and effect finally broke through under extreme conditions. And once this threshold is broken, it will be another world, allowing her to progress by leaps and bounds in the comprehension and control of the law.
Now, if the law of the single wheel is comprehended, An Xiaoyu can at least crush most of the human cultivators or aliens at the grandmaster level. There are not many masters in Gamai City, and the strength of these alien races used to maintain order in the dark is not very high, of course, they can't escape An Xiaoyu's perception.
An Xiaoyu held the little fox in his arms, observing these alien races in front of him on the back of the dust wolf, and the alien races around him were also observing An Xiaoyu. Before coming to Gamai City, these alien races had already heard some rumors that there was a twilight elf in Gamai City.
At first, they all thought it was a joke, how could a race like the Twilight Elves live in a city for so long? But now it seems that this is indeed the case, many alien races find it novel, especially those of noble status, and the eyes that look at An Xiaoyu are full of various desires.
If members of the elven race, especially those of the High Elves, can obtain it, it will be extremely honorable for both the individual and the group to which the individual belongs. What's more, the Twilight Elves are notoriously beautiful and arrogant, which can arouse the desire of many aliens to conquer.
An Xiaoyu turned a blind eye to this gaze, and just turned into a warm spring light, crossed the street, and came to the side of the last market. I found that today's market is completely different from before, and even the open space along the coast has been turned into a place for street vendors to communicate.
In fact, the aliens who come here to set up stalls are not necessarily incapable of occupying a shop, after all, the shops in the bazaar are limited, and they are first provided to those races and local traders with absolute strength, and the remaining aliens do not necessarily need a shop to rely on.
The goal of the Coastal Chamber of Commerce is to communicate, whether it is the exchange of goods, prices, business models or information from all over the world, but only to provide a platform for communication, and sometimes, in fact, the exchange in the stall is more suitable for different races than the one in the store.
Of course, An Xiaoyu didn't need to go through the already crowded street, the servants of the Jade Clan led An Xiaoyu to an alley on the side of the market, and after passing through the alley, he came to a relatively quiet street, most of the streets were filled with Aiken people coming and going, and when they saw An Xiaoyu, they all bent down respectfully to watch.
For their attitude, An Xiaoyu was a little surprised.
She knew that the Aiken clan she had seen in the office before was actually just the person in charge of the external affairs, but whether it was the president mentioned by the servants of the Jade clan before, or the attitude of these Aiken clans towards her, there was no doubt that the transaction between her and the person in charge had risen to the level of the entire Aiken clan in Gamai City, so what did they want?
The so-called president must be the president of the Gamai City Chamber of Commerce, that is, the patriarch of the entire Aiken clan in Gamai City, but the Aiken clan in Gamai City is too insignificant for the entire ethnic group, and the Aiken leaders here can only call themselves presidents, but dare not claim that they are a relatively independent ethnic group.
The previous transaction between An Xiaoyu and the Aiken clan was just to use some life crystals to buy a map, and as for the later proposal of the person in charge to help An Xiaoyu pay attention to whether the alien races participating in the Coastal Chamber of Commerce have a more comprehensive map, it was just a unilateral help from the Aiken clan.
didn't negotiate the price, didn't add any profit thoughts, at that time, An Xiaoyu thought that it was because of their stammering with the Twilight Elves, or they wanted An Xiaoyu to stay, and use the name of the Twilight Elves to increase the popularity of the Coastal Chamber of Commerce, but now it seems that it is not just that.
The help they provide is more like a kind of sincerity, and behind the sincerity, there must be something else.
Thinking of this, An Xiaoyu's heart became a little clearer, and she followed the servants of the Jade Clan through the street, and soon came to the back door of the external office. On the second floor, An Xiaoyu saw three or four Aiken people wearing robes and pointed hats.
But unfortunately, it is impossible to tell which of them is which one is from their appearance, and this is the most helpless part of the Aiken people. Of course, even if they show those faces that look like crooked melons and cracked dates, they may not be able to distinguish them.
The Aiken clan standing in the center was obviously the president of the Gamai City Chamber of Commerce, because it was the only one with a pointed hat made of pure gold on the chest of its robe, which was the logo of the Gamai City Chamber of Commerce. And the one on its left stood up, and as soon as he opened his mouth, he knew that this was the person in charge who had received him before.
"Honorable Lord Twilight, welcome to you, and the Aiken of Gamai City thank you for your generosity." It said, "Please forgive me for reporting this cooperation to the president of this chamber of commerce, I feel that such an important matter should be connected to you by the noble lords of the clan." β
An Xiaoyu nodded, indicating that she did not have any displeasure, and the Aiken clan was obviously relieved, and then looked at the president of the chamber of commerce. The president looked at An Xiaoyu, and he couldn't see anything clearly under the black under his hat, but it was obviously laughing, and after laughing twice, he spoke:
"Venerable Twilight Elf, I hope you have seen the prosperity of the Coastal Chamber of Commerce in Gamai City, and there is no doubt that it is your presence that has contributed to the unprecedented success of the Coastal Chamber of Commerce. I have ordered all members of the clan to pay attention to the news about the map, and to notify you as soon as they find it. β
An Xiaoyu said softly: "Okay, let's talk about your conditions." β
"Conditions?" The president said eagerly, "No, no, no! There are no conditions, as a businessman's point of view, this is our mutual benefit, and the Aiken people will only cede their own interests when they treat their friends and most honored guests. β
Looking at the president, An Xiaoyu just nodded slightly, she knew that the other party's words had not finished yet, and after patting the sycophants, she expressed enough sincerity, it was time to serve the main dish. I just don't know if a small city like Gamai City, a race like the Aiken Clan, needs the help of the Twilight Elves?
Sure enough, after the president said a bunch of clichΓ©s, he spat out his true purpose: "If you ask for a request, there is indeed one thing I want to beg the Twilight Elves, if we can get a map that satisfies the adults, we can do it without charging any fees, and we just want the adults to help us see a tribesman ......",
"Sick?" An Xiaoyu asked lightly.
The president said with some hesitation; "If it's a sickness, it doesn't seem like it. In fact, until now, we don't know what means the other party has used, but the identity of this tribe is very special, and we can't look for outside medical experts. β
An Xiaoyu frowned, feeling that this matter would be very troublesome, she was thinking about it, if the illness of the tribesman they said was related to the conflict between the Aiken and other races, then rashly intervening in it would definitely be targeted by other races, for the sake of a map, is it worth it?
When the president saw An Xiaoyu's appearance, he knew that he had not impressed the other party, and after thinking about it, he finally spoke again: "It only needs an adult to take a look, and we will present the most comprehensive map that can be obtained in the Chamber of Commerce with both hands, without any cost; If you can solve its problem, we can apply and present a map of the entire continent kept by the Aiken clan! β
There was a determination in its words, and it even took out the last hole card, which not only made An Xiaoyu happy, but also a little more thoughtful. The fact that the president of a small city was able to make such a decision shows that the status of this sick tribe must be quite high.
This also indirectly shows that this incident is likely to be a struggle between the entire Aiken clan and other races, even in the entire alien territory, it can be regarded as a relatively high-grade conflict. Think of the Great Depression, which was just emerging within the alien race, if this matter is involved in foreign wars......
When An Xiaoyu hesitated, the leader of the Aiken clan was already in a hurry, and several Aiken clans glanced at each other, and they didn't know how they saw each other's faces and eyes through the darkness under the pointed hats. And An Xiaoyu just didn't say a word, thinking about the gains and losses of this matter.
To be honest, she really wanted the so-called map of the whole continent, of course, it was bragged by the Aiken clan, they could have at most the map of most parts of the entire alien territory, including the maps of the top races and empires, they couldn't have it, but it was also quite precious.
If you can get this map, it can completely support An Xiaoyu to leave the territory of the alien race all the time, without the hassle of looking for a second map on the road, and you can save a lot of things. And now, at least, it is impossible for the alien race to have any doubts about their identity.
What's more, even if it is yourself, you may not be able to solve the troubles of the Aiken people, so it is better to take a look. But this matter must not be agreed to so easily, so An Xiaoyu said: "I need to think about it, first see what kind of map I can get on the Coast Chamber of Commerce." β
The leader of the Aiken clan was obviously relieved, and nodded like pounded garlic: "Of course! Of course, there is no hurry! No matter what decisions adults make, we will always be friends with adults. We will do our best to search the map on the Coast Chamber of Commerce and send it to the brain-sama. β
It knew that since An Xiaoyu said so, he had actually agreed halfway there. She needed to see the efforts of the Aiken clan, and she needed to prove that the Aiken clan would spare no effort for this matter, and the so-called consideration was only a time limit, and the focus of this limit was when they sent the most comprehensive map that the Coastal Chamber of Commerce could obtain to An Xiaoyu.
An Xiaoyu also needs time to think about how she should intervene in such a battle with a suitable attitude and position, and how to get out of the battle with her whole body to ensure that she will not be targeted by others, you must know that she does not have much combat ability now.
Maybe it's time to rely on your identity to find a guard or two?
For the structure of an interracial society, the employment relationship is still one of the important social relations, and the bloodier the social environment, the more important the employment relationship and the spirit of contract. Of course, not all aliens will follow this relationship and spirit, and there are not many cases of anti-water, but at least they can rely on the Presbyterian Church.
The Elders of the Alien Race have formed a management mechanism similar to that of the Imperial Court, and there are organizations stationed in each city and tribe, and the division of labor of this organization is not clear, but it is very in line with the style of the Alien Race. Most importantly, the Presbyterian Church is an organization that ensures the establishment of employment relationships and the integrity of the individuals employed.
In layman's terms, it is the role of mercenary unions.
Of course, in addition to this role, the presbytery has many other functions, such as coordinating the relationship between chambers of commerce, stabilizing prices, allocating medical resources, maintaining urban security, and so on...... In general, it is a combination of various functions.
An Xiaoyu told the administrator his thoughts, and the administrator also agreed: "If it is really necessary to participate in the battle of the Aiken clan, a guard is still very necessary, at least a mature individual at the grandmaster level is also needed, and the most suitable ones are, of course, the tree spirits and shadow demons. β
"Treant, I know, what is a shadow demon?" An Xiaoyu asked.
"The Shadow Demon is the ancestral clan of the ink, a race that manipulates shadows, and its power is quite strong, but it has a tendon in its brain, and once it has a commitment, it will be unswerving until death. The Dryads themselves are the spirits of the woods and will remain loyal enough to the Twilight Elves. β
Ann nodded quietly.
The Administrator continued, "And both the Dryads and the Shadow Demons are hard-working and long-distance races, and although the Dryads are talkative, even a little poor-mouthed, they are never curious about how long a problem lasts. The shadow demon, on the contrary, is taciturn and knows what he knows. β
"The mobility of the two is very strong, just in line with your fixed-point assistance, your life law plus flexible fighting, can completely deal with most problems. In these respects, these two races are indeed the best choices, and if you can't find them, then look at other options. β
An Xiaoyu nodded, so she called the Aiken clan: "I'm going to go to the employment market to have a look." β
