637 Books Businessman Thinking
Kellnan followed his two friends along the trail to find the two warriors who had killed people in the city......
As a boss, he can be said to be quite calm. Knowing that his opponent was a martial artist, knowing that his younger brother was hanging, the lesser of two evils, and it was definitely not a good thing to go against a martial artist, so he only had the intention of scouting, and never had the slightest idea of making trouble for himself.
He never wondered if he, as the boss, was he just a character who gave his little brother a bad ass for a crime? This question has never been answered by anyone.
After asking all the way, according to the information given by the people on the street, the two warriors seemed to have gone to Xicheng District to wander around, and the news was cut off here. In fact, Kernan had been praying an hour earlier, hoping that the news would be cut off soon. I have already heard the intentions of those two people, there is no need for me to hang around here anymore, it is my business to buy some food and go home early to take care of Ai Shi'er.
The young man who came to report the finger that had come back from the dead was depressed, but he had some thoughts of revenge. When Kernan and Asher's guards fought before, many people saw that it was Kernan who had the upper hand.
Seeing that there was nothing to gain, and the boss of his family looked very hungry and kept drooling at the street stalls, the investigation was over, and everyone was free to move.
Kernan is a more homely man, who used to be unable to express himself when he was only at home, but now that he has someone in the family, he has changed from a character who never comes home to a good man.
Zhou Shu gave him some part-time salary, which made him have more choices when he consumed. Banser hasn't eaten much good food in the past few days, and it seems that he can improve his food a little by going to the city today.
With this in mind, Kernan searched for the smell and walked towards a certain food street known for its fried food, which was one of the more famous streets in Kaiwon Castle. Outsiders will always take a stroll here.
As a local, he usually takes a detour when he goes to a place. As a result, I met two men in beautiful leather products in a certain box, asking for directions to two children squatting in the alley and chatting.
This situation startled Kellnan, these two looked like warriors no matter how they looked, with a sword at their waists, and their accents were also out-of-town. It's exactly the two guys I've been looking for for a long time just now.
But why here, didn't it say that they went to Xicheng District?
The two men spoke pleasantly, and the children in Nancheng basically instinctively took out their knives when they saw outsiders, and the two were not angry at all when they saw the hostile attitude of the children, and took out silver coins and a bag of sugar with a smile, and asked them to take them to the famous snack street in Haiyuan City.
"Someone showed us the way this way, but as soon as we entered the alley, we couldn't get around. β
"We don't want to break the roofs of other people's houses, so we can only ask you for help, little ones. β
The friendliness of the two men was something Kyernan had never seen before. Seeing that the two children were very nervous, he rushed out to take the candy and money, stuffed them into his partner's hands, and then pointed to himself to the two warriors, indicating that he could lead the way.
According to the news from the street, the two warriors who killed their family were vicious and insisted on killing their own partner who had used the knife despite begging for mercy. And the two people in front of him were also sharpened against each other, but they had a very soft expression on their faces. It doesn't look like it's going to be taken at all.
"Is it really all the way?" Kernan thought, quickly bringing the two of them to the right place.
The two breathe in the smell of fried food in the food court. He seemed to be pleased with the taste of fried birds and shallots, and insisted on asking Kernan to eat something.
With an unfriendly 'snort', Kernan pulled out his wallet in front of the two of them to pay for himself, showing off the silver coins inside.
The two warriors looked at each other and smiled, knowing that they had mistaken the little rich man in front of them for a poor boy. So they said goodbye to Kellnan, waving their hands and shaking his back for a long time.
Kernan didn't go far. After sparing a little, he relied on the advantage of the locals to play a game on the two of them. He stared at the two of them in the crowd while eating fried chicken nuggets, making the children of the good families on the side of the road salivate with envy.
Unsurprisingly, without the company of locals, these two well-dressed guys were ridiculed and bought almost nothing. They seem to have a great passion for food. Anyone who buys spices at roadside stalls has to buy one and chew it. This can't help but make people doubt the truth of the rumor that the White Moon Country outside the Beihai region is very rich.
After a little follow-up for more than ten minutes, Kernan finally found the feet of these two men. Although they pretended to be very friendly like Zhou Shu before, it still exposed the signal that they were the culprits who killed their companions.
The two of them finally found a stall willing to sell them food, and the two of them were grateful and took advantage of the friendship to ask the stall owner a question.
"I heard...... You're going to have dragons here recently??"
They are the ones who came to find the dragon! The rumored murderer came to the dragon. Kernan listened snuck not far away. Regardless of whether these two people were the real murderers or not, he did not intend to use force against these two people. He was playing stalker here out of curiosity, and he wanted to make sure that the kind faces of the two were not faked. In the future, when facing such people, should we raise some vigilance?
The stall owner who sold food looked at the two outsiders with a frown, "You are also here to slay dragons?" It is said that many young people like you have come to the city in the past two days. β
As he spoke, the stall owner kept his work on hand, and seemed to be too lazy to talk about it.
The two outlanders nodded, "We know we're following behind their butts." β
"Follow them to kill the dragon?" the stall owner seemed to think that their behavior was a little ridiculous.
The two strangers hurriedly waved their hands and denied, "We just want to see the dragon." If those people do kill them, we want to try to buy some dragon meat from them. β
In the legend of the White Moon Kingdom, the flesh of a dragon is a poison capable of burning the throat.
The stranger looked excited there, "Boss, you should be able to understand it, right? No one has ever tasted the smell of a dragon, the feeling of a powerful, evil dragon's flesh being chewed in the mouth!"
"Hmph, I don't understand. The boss put the food for two in a paper bag and handed it over. After receiving the money, he looked at his guests with a sad face.
"Boss, do you think we're not going to win that dragon?"
The boss said, "I don't think you're going to see that dragon." β
"There is such a saying. The two warriors who loved food held the fried food and chewed and said: "Many people over there say that your saintess in Beihai are unreliable, but I still believe it, we have heard the name of the saint for a long time, and the accuracy of the prediction is very high." β
The boss wanted to say that he didn't think the dragon would come. I don't think what the saint said before even the handover was completed. However, being so praised by the two people in front of him, he couldn't say his psychological words, so he changed the topic: "There are a lot of people like you recently, I heard two days ago that someone was asking around to know the situation of the holy woman's prophecy at that time, and this morning I also heard that someone seems to have caused trouble. How many of you are here?"
Kernan eavesdropped on the conversation, depressed. He hadn't been out for the past two days, and he had no idea that such a big event was happening in the city. However, since he knows that a large number of foreign warriors have entered, then his own younger brother will rob outsiders for Mao?
Don't die the low IQ of the two little brothers who succeeded. The bad boy boss of Nancheng continued to cower and eavesdrop.
The stall owner seems to be a very talkative person and talks a lot. Of course, it may also be because these two diners eat a lot of food, and they eat one after another.
The two diners said that they were not members of the martial arts organization and did not know how the people there treated the dragon. However, it is said that the news is spreading to the capital Baiyue City and even to the border defeated army city, where the number of warriors is much higher, although the standard is not necessarily high. It is believed that within a week, more people will set off for the Northland.
The North Sea is long and narrow. It is connected to the south coast. The two warriors said that there should be more warriors pouring in from the southern coast of the North Sea. After all, the climate is much, much warmer.
"There is a war going on in the south. The stall owner emphasized the sense of survival of his own army.
"Free warriors never care about the military. The two guests said this, ate up their food, and took aim at the fried apples at the stall next door, so they said goodbye to the stall owner and went to buy them.
Kellnan has confirmed that the killers should be the other duo, unless the two guys are trying to eat human flesh on a whim. Otherwise, no dangerous moves should be made against anyone.
He felt that his family had been a little uneasy lately, so he decided to buy more food and go home to keep it and avoid going out as much as possible in the future. What if something happened to Ash'er at home while she wasn't there......
"If something happens, something will happen, and it has nothing to do with me. β
Kernan muttered to himself into the air, saying things against his will. I went shopping with heavy stepsββ
Zhou Shu met Lan and Cai, two women, at the gate of the temple of Wanghai City, and learned that the two of them were going to report everywhere again.
"I really don't want to do this kind of thing, you guys do it again. β
He looked at Cai very sincerely and said this, because Cai knew what happened to Lan when he reported the news before. Human beings are like this, if they think that if they can be treated the same as others if they have good intentions, they don't want to die many times.
Zhou Shu has been thinking about it for a while now, where is the self who had more or less a heart of the Virgin back then. He originally thought that it was these things in Bai Yueguo that made him what he is now, but if he thought about it carefully, the encounter of being trapped in the collapsed shopping mall by Yu Feiniao's younger brother Lu Bu when he was at home should have the greatest impact on his personality.
The two girls, who still had the heart of the Virgin, did not listen to the persuasion, and they felt that since there was a disaster, they should spread it out. As for whether the people who heard it believe it or not, it has nothing to do with themselves, if the real disaster comes and they don't inform others, the two of them feel that they will probably die of guilt.
"I understand, I understand. Zhou Shu, as a disaster planner, waved his hand at them, he didn't intend to let the dragon cause too much danger, but the building could be burned. Thousands of people were killed by mistake, and it should still be within the bearable range.
'Is it possible to ignore thousands of lives now?' Zhou Shu smiled bitterly at himself like this in his heart. He didn't really like that.
At the Chamber of Commerce in Wanghai City, the evagrants who ran to inform the merchants were going well. They were originally members of the Chamber of Commerce, and although they were just ordinary members, they were still treated with dignity by the local president.
The president said he didn't know what they were saying. In the bright president's room with floor-to-ceiling windows, the president himself shook his head and sighed after shrinking back to his work. He sighed at the innocence of the two in front of him.
"Thank you both for making the most of your time to inform you of this. I really haven't heard this kind of rumor. Recently, there has been less and less business in the conference and other cities, and it has been difficult to get information. β
"Well......" The two businessmen who fled were praised by the branch president, somewhat flattered. "Then will you organize the evacuation of the Lord?"
"I don't think I will. β
The answer was very painful, and it seemed that he didn't even have a second to think.
"Well, we got it. The two people who reported the news had long been prepared to get this answer, and they made this decision. They expressed disappointment. The president, who seems to be shrewd, turns out to be just a short-sighted person. The trepidation I expressed when I first came into contact with him is really ridiculous when I think about it now. Thinking so, the two got up from their chairs with slightly angry expressions and bowed deeply. "So, we take our leave. β
After they left, the Chamber of Commerce did not spread the news of the matter, but organized a high-level meeting, and some of the big businessmen in the city were gathered together. We chatted about this while drinking tea.
"The handing over of the virgins has not yet been completed...... Is there really any credibility in the prophecy made by the Holy Maiden in this way?"
The president sat down in his seat and spoke out about the topic of discussion.
They were not discussing whether or not to publicize the coming disaster to the public, but rather the credibility of the prophecy.
More than a dozen big businessmen at the meeting expressed their opinions, most of them thought it was not credible, and voted by a show of hands, and the negative side won by a score of 9 to 4.
The chairman did not take a position on the outcome of the discussion, but asked another question.
"If we hype it up and spread it out in the city. How much of a buzz can it arouse?"
Once again, the businessmen expressed their opinions and voted on the five topical levels they had established. Most people chose the superlative, believing that this topic could become an after-dinner conversation for the whole city.
"So, what about the possibility of causing panic and Cheng dΓΉ?"
After further discussion, most people believe that there will definitely be panic, but it should not provide much additional income for the chamber of commerce. Take advantage of the panic caused by a series of situations such as wars and disasters to sell stocks that have been squeezed for years. This is something that merchants often do, at least in the North Sea.
This conclusion was expected by the president, but it was very disappointing to him. "No matter how much, but it should help us in our current predicament, right?"
Due to the severance of seaborne trade. Almost all of the major businesses in the North Sea region are facing a situation where they have no business to do. Materials cannot be circulated, and money cannot be circulated. Dead money does not make money, and only money that is constantly traded will raise the price of materials and create new profits.
"Or let's do it. The president said, "Since everyone has nothing to sell, let's sell something more interesting." β
All the businessmen asked at the same time. The chairman took out a piece of paper, "Sell paper." β
The president said that everyone could get together to open a market and bet on whether the dragon would actually come. Citizens who want to participate in the gambling game can come up with money to buy their own paper. Four crescent moons on paper painted with dragons burning the city, and nine crescent moons painted with paper painted with peaceful cities.
After a month, the Chamber of Commerce will recycle the paper according to the situation, and each twelve crescents is a full moon coin.
Now the chamber of commerce does not need to raise funds, because there is money and no good investment channels. They just wanted to avoid the risk of dragons in this way.
If the dragon doesn't come, and everyone is busy, everyone is just busy opening a gambling game. Unlike gambling, the chamber of commerce needs to control the amount of two types of paper, and try to make the number of two types of paper reach an average level as much as possible. If the dragon comes, those who never believe that the dragon will come and spend nine new moons on waste paper will not be able to get the money. If the dragon didn't come, because the two kinds of paper were sold in the same quantity, the Chamber of Commerce would at least not lose money, and at most it would waste some manpower and energy.
This is safer than simply opening a gambling game, after all, what the Chamber of Commerce needs now is not financing, but simple risk aversion.
Although the president did not believe that the dragon would really come, it was a prophecy made by the saint who had never missed a beat. If this happens, although the underground warehouse of the Chamber of Commerce can store goods and materials, the loss of above-ground buildings is inevitable. The president's choice is only to minimize the material damage in the worst-case scenario.
This wisdom of his is nothing more than the instinct of a businessman. He felt that his idea was just the most modest choice, and he was not complacent. He believes that chambers of commerce in other regions will be able to come up with a much more clever way to avoid risks than they are when they hear the news. However, their own solution is to allow those panicked people to escape the money in their pockets and stock up on some disaster supplies, which is very beneficial to the current market with insufficient spending power.
No matter what the situation, a businessman can't just think about making money. You must know that after having a large amount of capital, basically no matter what kind of investment you make, you will make money, and how to resist the risks in investment is the most important thing. The more clever way to do this is to pass on the risk, and at this moment, the president has successfully transferred his own risk to the common people, and when disaster strikes, the fools who don't believe in the dragon will pay the bill.
