Justin continued, "Second, establish the Jingsa Intercarrier, and all goods to and from Thorn Territory and Satsuma Sea City will be transported by the Jingsa Intercarrier. Due to the huge cost and time required to build the ship, I decided to raise funds from everyone present, and each merchant could subscribe up to 100 gold coins for each gold coin. Satsuma Sea City can be subscribed with city revenues, up to 20% of the ship's total asset share. All merchants who have subscribed to the fund will receive profit dividends after making a profit at Jingsa United Transport Company. I will send someone to Satsuma Sea City to discuss the specific terms. ”

Considering the popularity of the goods in the Thorn Collar, none of these merchants thought that the shipping company would lose money, so they each assessed in their minds how much liquidity the store would withdraw so as not to affect the normal operation.

Looking at the ecstatic expressions of all the merchants, Justin continued: "Third, the Thorn Leader will set aside a total of 100 pastures close to the sea in the large, medium and small categories, and allow the residents and merchants of Satsuma Sea City to contract, and all the livestock raised will be sold to the major fish-man cities. ”

In just two years, all kinds of meat products of the Thorn Collar have become famous in the entire Cangmang Continent, and the delicious taste of high-quality meat can be said to be the favorite of nobles and big businessmen, and the price is naturally high. Many of the merchants present only buy high-quality meat for export two or three times a year, mainly because they cannot afford it.

Therefore, the merchants present were simply overjoyed when they heard the news, and thought that they could eat high-quality thorn collar meat every day after contracting the ranch, which was something they had dreamed of!

One merchant asked, "There are many powerful merchants who want to participate in all the cooperation that the lord has proposed. I wonder if it will be restricted?"

Justin replied: "For powerful merchants who want to get a piece of the pie in all kinds of cooperation, Thorn Collar is not excluded. However, such merchants must indicate in advance, and only strive for the best category when competing for various cooperation projects. It cannot compete with ordinary merchants. Once it is discovered that a powerful merchant is concealing his behavior and maliciously competing for ordinary shops or multiple small ranches, the Thorn Leader will deprive him of his qualifications to cooperate. ”

The merchant nodded and said, "Since you have the strength, you will naturally strive for the best." It's just that what if the best ones are all fought over and there are only other types left?"

Justin said meaningfully: "If the best shop and the biggest farm are competed by others, it can only mean that you are not strong enough." ”

When the merchants heard this, they immediately heard the deep meaning of Justin's words. If you want to take advantage of it, you must be prepared to bleed.

When the merchant who asked the question heard this, he sat down a little unwillingly. The Lord of Thorns is equivalent to telling everyone bluntly: powerful merchants. Your opponents can only be other powerful merchants. The result of catching the right fight is to drive up the cost.

Justin looked at most of the small and medium-sized merchants whose faces had softened, knowing that his regulations protected their interests, and that in the future, these merchants would be solid allies in the external expansion of Thorn Collar Commerce. Provided that their interests are assured.

Another merchant stood up and asked, "According to the lord's words, a powerful merchant wants to share the benefits of all projects. It's likely to cost a lot of money. I wonder if there is any relevant benefit protection?"

Justin approvingly, "The Thorn Leader will implement a merchant qualification rating system. According to the financial strength of the merchants, the higher the level of the merchants, the more funds they lend in the Thorn Collar Bank. ”

The powerful merchants glanced at each other, and quickly shifted their gazes, and their minds were lively. Although Justin's move was obviously stimulating them to intensify competition, they were still tempted by the fact that merchants with high qualifications could lend a lot of money to expand the scale of production or the scale of shops. As for the huddle that sprouted just now, the desire to reduce competition and lower the investment is gone.

Seeing the merchants with different looks, Justin knew he needed to add more fire. He said: "In the future, all kinds of agricultural and animal husbandry products needed by the fish-people will be provided by the farms and ranches run by the fish-people. The agricultural and animal husbandry products produced by the original farms and pastures of the Thorn Collar will no longer be sold to the fish-people. ”

"Wow!" all the merchants were excited, imagining the commercial space that could be expanded in the future. How could they not be excited.

The Fish-Men have millions of people, and 80 percent of them live in five cities, such as Satsuma Sea City, Inca Sea City, Nice Sea City, Rhine Sea City, and Cuso Sea City. The other 20 percent of the fish-people are in the diaspora.

Of the five major sea castles, only Satsuma Kaijo is located by the sea, but because the land within a 20-kilometer radius of the coastline is salinized and desertified, it is not suitable for planting and grazing, so it can only rely on fishing for a living.

The other four sea cities are all located on islands, and although there is a lot of suitable arable land, the fish-people love water, and are not accustomed to grazing and farming, and they are not willing to go too far from the sea. So their food types are also relatively simple.

A merchant suddenly realizes that the fish-people don't like the life of herding and planting, and asks worriedly, "The fish-people alone can't support the work of pastures and farms?"

Justin laughed and said, "You can buy slaves and sign an agreement." After a certain period of service, the other party is given freedom and a sum of living expenses, and the labor problem can be solved. ”

Speaking of which, Justin solemnly warned, "The Thorn Lords have always been strict about the cruelty of slaves, so if you have any bad habits, you should refrain from them. Remember, regardless of race, living in the Thorn Realm must obey the laws of the Thorn Lord. This is the premise, there are no exceptions. ”

Although there was a lot of discussion among the merchants, none of the fishmen clearly expressed their opposition. Relative to the benefits of the fish-people's vast market, complying with the laws of the Thorn Realm does not seem to be a big deal.

After the discussion of the merchants subsided, Justin said: "The above cooperation is just the beginning, and many cooperative projects still need to be explored by us and gradually standardized in the cooperation." Let us raise a glass to the future development of Satsuma Sea City, and let us witness this historic moment together. ”

Everyone in the banquet hall raised their glasses and cheered, and many people seemed to have a bright and ambitious future in front of their eyes, so they were very emotional.

Seeing that the atmosphere in the banquet hall was too warm, Justin took the hand of the bright moon and said to the Mocha City Lord, "Mocha City Lord, I will not continue to participate in the dinner. After a while, Beess brought the food to my room, and my sister and I wanted to eat in the house. ”

The Mocha City Lord looked at Justin and Mingyue Qingyun's hands holding tightly, and smiled ambiguously at Justin: "Accompanied by beautiful women, I naturally understand the lord's feelings." (To be continued.) )
