Pick-up Chapter: The Alliance's Consortium of Businessmen

The "League of Fighters" led by the Isenhard family was finally born on the day of the New Year in St. Hugh Arekakistan, which shocked the entire Wasam in the blink of an eye. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info talked about it on the streets and alleys, even a three-year-old child knew it, and since then, Wassam's gladiatorial industry has changed overnight.

Previously, the three major families of Makqin, Balstin, and Powell have always been the undisputed leaders, and the small but elite Isenhard family followed closely behind, and although there were many insignificant small trainers, few people knew their names, and there was even a folk proverb that "a plaque in a store in Wassam could be killed by a strong wind", which shows how insignificant they are. However, after the establishment of the "Fighters Alliance", the citizens found out that Isenhard and these seemingly unsupportable guys instantly occupied nearly half of the city's gladiatorial industry, and became the largest trainer force, with its scale and momentum, even the three major families had to tremble!

This is undoubtedly shocking news, and the most affected of it is the consortium that used to let small trainers compete on their behalf. Because in the speech on the establishment of the alliance, it was clearly pointed out that one of the major purposes of the "Fighter Alliance" is to let the small trainers completely get rid of the exploitation of the consortium forces and return them to dignity. For a while, those big chambers of commerce were almost messed up, which meant that the old rules were completely broken, and they had to figure out what Isenhard was wishful thinking as soon as possible.

The first and most fierce attack was the dock chamber of commerce of the Sacamoto family. Their emissary was restlessly waiting at the gate of the newly groundbreaking Gladiator League's large training ground, ready to inform Isenhard.

This envoy has a very high status in the Chamber of Commerce, and has a very domineering name: Nobunaga. This thirty-year-old Xiansai man is a fierce general under the command of Sakamoto, not only a master of swordsmanship, but also a paladin who is not too noble. As we all know, although the Sacamoto family has fallen to this point, they still consider themselves "the orthodox Duke of Kingspo" and are very proud. Now, although they mainly act in the style of the Sensai gang, they have also retained a considerable part of the aristocratic style, and they have not lost the glory of the era when Lakis was directly subordinate to the vassals, although they no longer have the title of knight, and there are not many people, but they still insist on training their own paladins, and Nobunaga is one of them.

However, the paladin's dress was very different, and the Sacamoto family revived many of the immortal traditions in order to show that they had distanced themselves from the current royal family of Westermatro, the Gastians. Nobunaga wears a loose silk kimono, a high, black bowler hat and a goatee. If it weren't for the Sakaram Holy Scepter hanging from his waist, it would have been hard to tell him who he was a paladin.

Zhang Long, who stood at the door of the construction site as a welcome mascot, was very interested in him. Sure enough, it is similar to Blizzard's official design, and the external culture of Xiansai Island is a mixture of ancient styles in China, Japan and South Korea in the three East Asian countries of the earth. Although he rarely watched the costume dramas of these three countries before he traveled, he was also influenced by the people around him to know a rough idea: he recognized the kimono, the big round-brimmed top hat seemed to be an ancient Korean costume, and the "Servant Street" that Nobunaga kept muttering when he was in a hurry, even if he never watched Hong Kong films, he knew that it was Cantonese foul language. However, the internal culture and behavior of the Xiansai people are out-and-out Sicilian mafia, so for Zhang Long, this race can be said to have no sense of belonging except for his appearance, and even for him who has been bullied by the school bully since he was a child, he still has some taste of wanting to stay away.

"Baga! Hiba, you decrepit boy, come here!" Esenhard didn't show up for a long time, Nobunaga couldn't hold his breath, and walked straight to Zhang Long, who was close to his appearance, and when he came up, he shook off a mixed Japanese, Korean and Cantonese foul language, and Zhang Long heard it one by one. But in any case, it was not good to snub the messenger, and he hurried over to him and replied, "How dare I ask how I can help you?"

Nobu Naga angrily said a big chunk of Japanese, Korean and Cantonese mixed Xiansai Wen, Zhang Long was confused, so he had to cough and explain: "Although I look like this, I don't understand Xiansai, please say it again......

Nobnagar's eyes widened as big as a brass bell, and he changed his lingua franca and said, "How is it possible? Forget it, I don't have time to talk to you, why hasn't Isenhard come out yet?

"Integrity, dare to ask if your chamber of commerce has talked to Master Aureno about integrity?" Esenhard walked out of the gate of the construction site slowly, and looked at Nobunaga with a smile: "Burke was just injured, so he immediately tore up the contract and withdrew the investment, this is to kill his whole family! I deliberately came out a quarter of an hour late, just to let your chamber of commerce also taste the taste of being breached. 」

Nobunaga glared at Esenhard in annoyance, but he was speechless, so he had to be led into the temporary reception hut next to the construction site by the former god of war, and Zhang Long, as a clerk, naturally followed in. A slave girl from another family arrived early and put two beers on the table, and Isenhard and Nobunaga sat down one after another and began to talk about business.

"First of all, I must protest on behalf of the Dock Chamber of Commerce!" Nobunaga was aggressive: "The establishment of the 'Fighter Alliance' has seriously disrupted the rules of the market and caused us great trouble.

"No, Your Excellency," Isenhard said calmly, "I didn't disrupt the rules of the market, but I put the chaotic market on the right track. In fact, I'm the one who makes the market have rules!"

"How so?" Nobunaga seemed to punch the cotton, but was led to the rhythm by Esenhard.

"As you know, gladiatorial fighting is a money-burning business. "Even the smallest training ground has at least half an Easter net cost a year. Therefore, for a small trainer with little background and background, it is difficult to survive on his own. And the consortium chamber of commerce like yours urgently needs to improve their prestige and influence by participating in gladiatorial competitions, and the big trainers already have a complete operating system and brand effect, and it is impossible to fight for you, so those small trainers who are struggling on the line of life and death just hit it off with your interests, and the cooperation has been reached, right?"

"Yes. Nobnaga nodded, "Now that you know this is Wasam...... No, it should be said that the existing market rules of the entire Candras gladiatorial competition, why break it?"

"Because it doesn't make sense!" Esenhard habitually banged his glass on the table, "and it's not fair. Think about it, what do the little trainers get by spending a lot of effort on gladiators to make money and fame for you consortiums? Take Orenor as an example, how much prestige and money Burke earned for the Zacamoto family during the triumphant days, but what about Orenor? When my slave went to visit his house, he was so poor that he didn't even have a decent treatment room! As soon as Burke was injured, you immediately withdrew and let him go out of business, is the conscience of the Zacamoto family okay?"

Nobunaga frowned: "Conscience, don't mention these high-sounding things to me, we're talking about business! If you want to do charity, just go directly to help them, why do you want to take them under your own hands and have trouble with us? Tell you, don't get complacent too early, we know that such a big shelf of money you are now is supported by loans, as long as we join forces with other consortiums and chambers of commerce whose interests have been damaged by this to boycott you, the day when you repay the loan in a year will be the time when the 'Fighter Alliance' collapses!"

The corners of Esenhard's mouth turned into a smile, and his tone was not chaotic at all: "You are talking about business, we are talking about business! In business, harmony is precious, and your previous attitude towards small trainers has no word "harmony" at all. If you think about it, over the years, how many of the gladiators who have competed in the name of the consortium and chamber of commerce have reached the quarterfinals of the tournament? How many of them have become second- and third-tier stars?"

Nobnaga didn't quit because Isenhard was absolutely right. Over the years, there have been countless celebrity gladiators in the arena of Vossam, who can be counted on their fingers under the names of various consortiums and chambers of commerce, and most of the stars are from the three major families and the rising star Isenhard family. To put it mildly, although there are many gladiators sent by the consortium, most of the time they are no different from warming up, and occasionally there is a leader like Burke, who is quickly drained of oil and water like Burke, and there are very few who can really go far.

Esenhard continued, "This is because you don't see the little trainer as a business partner at all, but as a subordinate, or a lowly subordinate. Therefore, there is no sound market between the consortium and the small trainers, and there is no proper rule, and there is a complete chaos! As a result, the small trainers are unsafe, and they are on the verge of bankruptcy at any time, and the consortium that relies on them to participate in the competition has always become the laughing stock of the big trainers and the nobles behind them, and they have become clowns who warm up in the arena!"

Isenhard said it mercilessly, but it was reasonable, Nobunaga's face was red and white for a while, and he thought for a long time before he asked with a full stomach full of doubts, "What about it...... If you form an alliance, will we be able to have more benefits? I think you are all standing up for those trainers, what benefits can our chamber of commerce get from this?"

"Alright, that's the point!" Isenhard snapped his fingers, "Long Zhang, show the agreement to His Excellency Nobnaga." 」

Zhang Long hurriedly agreed, and handed over a stack of papyrus papers that had been prepared next to him. Isenhard was not idle, and patiently explained: "After the establishment of the alliance, it will establish mutually beneficial cooperative relations with major consortia. First of all, there is the general investment: the consortium invests in the development of the alliance, and the alliance returns with considerable dividends. Most of the gladiator qualifications of the small trainers are actually very good, but it is difficult to achieve great things because of the lack of training funds and excellent coaches, and in the shadow of the league, these are not problems!"

Nobunaga snorted, "But it's just money, we still want fame!" Before, no matter what, those gladiators of the little trainers appeared in our name, but now that they have joined your alliance, they have become your people, how can our fame be earned from the arena?"

"Good question!" said Isenhard, "please turn to the next page of the agreement, and I will give you a good idea of further cooperation." Nobunaga turned the page of the agreement in his hand suspiciously, although he had a violent personality, but as a paladin with a noble bloodline, he still had cultural accomplishments, and literacy was a piece of cake. The content of the agreement was very creative, and he couldn't help but admire Isenhard a little as he looked at it.

"Naturally, the gladiators of the alliance must compete in the name of the alliance, this is undoubted, and it is also the dignity of the alliance!" Isenhard first named his firm stance, "But this does not mean that the major consortiums that support the alliance will retreat into the background. The Alliance is very welcome to evaluate and sponsor a designated gladiator in the form of the cost of the gladiator's food, training and equipment, and in return, the Alliance will have the name of the consortium on the host's speech and the gladiator's appearance, salutation and post-victory greetings. In this way, the influence of the consortium in the arena continues to be maintained, and the quality of the gladiators' training is not the same as in the past. Don't forget, Kaisson is Coach Wasam's trump card!"

Nobunaga read the agreement several times, and finally breathed a sigh of relief, raised his head and said, "Sounds like a win-win. 」

"Yes. Isenhard said confidently.

"I'll take a copy of the agreement back and show it to Lord Zacamoto. Nobnaga tucked the agreement into his cuffs, stood up and shook Isenhard's hand, saying, "I hope we can work together happily!"
