Chapter 67: Take Your Money and Do Your Business
When Shelley said this, it seemed to be an understatement, but in fact, everyone present felt extremely cold. From her tone, it seemed that she had confirmed the appearance of those powerful people being trampled under her feet and wailing.
"Now that you've agreed to the first condition, there should be no problem with the second one. I don't need a traveling merchant, you have to set up a trading company in my Yongle City. ”
Everyone smiled bitterly, because they really couldn't call the shots with this condition. Because this has nothing to do with whether there is a profit or not, the establishment of a trading company requires the consent of the state lord.
However, no matter where the state lord is, for his own benefit, he will only allow the trading company of the World Chamber of Commerce in his territory.
Because as long as they do this, they can ensure that their own wealth will not be dispersed, but on the other hand, it is not so convenient for the people below.
This is also the reason why there are traveling merchants, if there are trading companies in every place, where is there such trouble, they only need to manage the delivery of goods, and then the business only needs to be handed over to the trading companies in various places.
In this way, the cost is also saved, the management is convenient, and the wealth can be increased. Why not? Even if they don't use Shelley, they want to set up trading companies, preferably everywhere.
When the conundrum was raised, Shelley brought out the lord certificate and the escrow contract with the Duke of Pokadot, as he had done with Payne before.
"You don't need to worry so much, I am the real lord of the border state, although the management power has been taken away, but the right to use it is still mine, and I have the power to allow you to establish a trading company. Don't believe it. The army directly under the kingdom next door is now packing up and preparing to move to the edge of Yongle City. Whether this is true or false from my mouth, I don't think you will fail to hear it. ”
As soon as they heard that even the army had moved over, how could they not believe her?
The crowd looked at each other, and then huddled together to discuss, and in the end it was Barbie who represented Shelley to express their agreement. Since they can really establish a trading company, it is naturally a great thing for them.
"Actually, if it weren't for the fact that it didn't affect the lives of the people and didn't disturb the market, I really wanted you to remove the trading company in Canterlot...... Don't be so afraid, I'm not going to do anything that hurts the economy. ”
As soon as he heard this, Barbie also had some thoughts: "That...... Your Highness Princess, may we ...... in other places?"
Shelley naturally knew what she meant, so he nodded: "If you have enough funds, there is no problem with how much you want to build." ”
"Oh~~ You are really a wise lord, and the Duke of Naboka is really different from you."
Barbie sighed heartily. Then he put his right hand on his chest and bowed to her, as did the other merchants. This is the etiquette that their merchants peculiar to pay homage to the noble.
"Don't be in a hurry to thank me first, haven't you said it all, I have a lot of conditions, and this is not over yet."
"Yes, yes, please."
Shelley gave the maids a look, and the two of them immediately took out the contract they had prepared in advance.
"I'm a person who doesn't like the way of paying with one hand and delivering with the other, it's too slow. So I've come up with a new way of trading, you guys can take a look. ”
Everyone looked around the contract, and after a while, they erupted.
Barbie looked at Shelley as if she was looking at a monster: "Pay for the goods in advance? You also ...... "writing book."
"Don't panic yet, let me ask you, do you want these things?"
Shelley took out a bundle of pre-made silk, and it was still colored, and the luster seduced everyone's eyes in the sun, especially Barbie, as if the bundle in front of him was not a bundle of silk, but a pile of gold.
She kept nodding her head: "Yes, I really want to." ”
"That's right, whether it's silk, or these beautiful papers, or this gorgeous pen in my hand. They weren't made out of thin air, they were made by the hard work of thousands of workers. But here's the problem, I don't have any money right now. ”
Everyone was stunned.
"No money?"
"That's not true, so whether it's the salary or the material money, I can barely get it now. I don't even have money, how can I start work? If you don't start work, how can you have the goods? Without goods, what kind of business do you do? I don't have any business, what are you looking for me for? ”
"This ...... This ......"
The crowd was stunned and incoherent.
Shelley slammed the table and said loudly, "Do you think I want your money for the early payment?" Figured it out, I'm using your money to do your business! Tell me why you are so short-sighted? All I have to settle is the basic payment, and there will be no dividends after these things are sold? Earn no more money! How can you be dragged into your mind by this little payment! Can't you even think of such a simple truth? ”
Under such a strong chain of attacks, everyone successfully got around Shelley's words, and finally signed their names on the contract in a daze.
"There's another thing......"
Just when everyone was sweating profusely and sorting out under the emotions of happiness and pain, they were so frightened by Shelley's words that they almost fainted collectively.
"Gong ...... Your Royal Highness Princess, do you have any other conditions to add? ”
Shelley was also a little embarrassed: "No, we have signed the contract, where are the conditions." I just have a personal matter to ask you about. ”
Only then did everyone breathe a sigh of relief, and Barbie said, "Please speak." ”
"The Dirty Slave Exchange is yours too, isn't it?"
"Exactly, you have a crush on the filthy slave? We can have someone send it to you now, if it's cheap, we'll send it to you directly, if it's expensive, it's okay, just deduct it from the honey income you sent this time. ”
Although Shelley has no money now, the things she brought out this time can be exchanged for a lot of money, and it is definitely no problem to buy a few dirty slaves. Barbie can be regarded as good at doing things, and she didn't ask her for money directly.
However, she naturally didn't know what Shelley's real purpose was, and Shelley was not stupid enough to talk about the matter between herself and the superpower.
"Well, for filth, I've been doing some research lately, and it takes quite a bit. In this way, I want all the filth in your hands now, including all the new filth in the future, and leave it to me, and don't give me a cheap price, all of which will be deducted from the payment for the goods in the back, and I will be gossiped about by others. I won't take it with me, you will set up a trading company on my side anyway, and then I will send it with your cargo fleet. ”
The cargo fleet of the World Chamber of Commerce, which is very well defended, will naturally not lack holy stones or anything. Therefore, it is safer than taking people away directly, or going to find some nobles.
