Chapter 47 Outsourcing Business
Facing the more familiar wealthy businessman Desby, Ali Meng was also more casual, he smiled and said, "The auction house on my side can't eat it, but our owner's industry is not only this one, it is ten times or twenty times larger, and it can also be eaten." ”
Desby also laughed and said, "Your owner is indeed a big family, but the auction house is not only your family." "It's already obvious in the words of this big fat man, this is asking for benefits, otherwise why would you give things to your family.
Ever since Desby discovered the terrifying strength of Zheng Feng and his group, he had made up his mind to hold this thick leg. He is rich enough now, but as the saying goes, 'the poor don't fight with the rich, and the rich don't earn with the officials', no matter how rich he is, he is still not satisfied in his heart, and always wants to go further.
Although Zheng Feng and his party came out to bulk goods on the surface, they may still be the black goods of the bandits, and they don't seem to have anything to do with the official family, but they are more likely to be wanted by the official family. has a relationship with these people who are suspected of being bandits, and on the surface, he is not very close to his dream of wealth.
But as long as you think about it a little more, what is an official, what is a bandit, and which dynasty is changed, it is not a conversion between a bandit and an official. The so-called 'victor prince, loser Kou' How many founding emperors, prosperous emperors, aren't they all transformed from bandits.
Take refuge in an already existing kingdom, or spend money on an idle official, what good future can it be. If you can take refuge in a powerful force that has not yet been discovered, and can overturn the royal power, then when this force turns from dark to light and establishes a new royal power in the future, as a person who has served in the early stage, he will inevitably get greater gains.
That's why Desby determined the direction of his future life in just a few days. Of course, Desby is not blindly trying to take refuge, what can make this big fat man have such a decision is the existence of those masters.
Zheng Feng and his group had more than a dozen seventh-level guys alone, and in terms of seventh-level masters alone, there might be more than the number of Allah's kingdom. Whoever has such a force will stay in obscurity forever, it can be said that this force is a super thigh that is thicker than the kingdom of Allah. Because no matter what kind of force it is, it won't come out to sell something or get information, so how powerful is this force?
Desby could not resist mourning for Allah's kingdom at the thought of such a terrible force in the shadows of Allah's kingdom. In the eyes of this big fat man, if this force was his, then he would have revolted a long time ago, and with such a strong force, he wouldn't have made a king earlier. And the kingdom of Allah still does not know that such a force has come from its own land, and it is really not far from death.
However, this force Desbi has never heard of before, so it must have a bigger goal to hide until now, and a mere kingdom should not be able to satisfy this force. As if he had seen an empire on the rise, Desby's heart was filled with excitement, and he was lucky to have the opportunity to take refuge in this future empire before it even began to move.
Of course, having a chance doesn't mean that you can really take refuge, so Desby has to show favor without a trace and show his role. If you want to take refuge in others, you can't show too obviously, 'catching up is not trading' is too positive, but it makes yourself worthless, and it will also increase people's vigilance, which is not conducive to gaining trust. So Desby plans to start by helping people do business, and then build a good relationship first.
Seeing that the big fat man was there laughing after he finished speaking, Ali Meng really wanted to go over and twist off a piece of his fat and cook it to eat. But this idea is just to think about it, this big fat man is still a fifth-level earth martial artist, he is a civil auction house in charge, it is okay to talk about business, but it is not his strong point.
However, Ali Meng also understands that if he wants to cooperate with a powerful force and build a good relationship, he can't let some benefits go. If it just works according to normal procedures, then people can divide things to different auction houses to do, or just find a few big buyers.
Hehe, Ali Meng hesitated a little with a smile, and in this short moment, he decided to directly say the biggest concession to show his sincerity on his side. After all, the other party is likely to be a super force, and if you talk slowly a little bit, you may lose this opportunity, and the bigger the force, the more impatient it is likely to be.
So Ali Meng turned to Claude and said in a more formal tone, "If you can hand over all the seventh-level Warcraft materials to the Bank to deal with, the Bank can only charge one percent of the handling fee, and bear all the transportation and publicity costs of the lot." ”
Hearing the other party's statement, Claude was a little surprised, if it was really traded in this way, then where would the other party's income come from. After removing those messy costs, wouldn't the auction house have no profits, and even lose money, is there such a business? Could it be that the other party has some other purpose, but this is the first time that their side has gone out of the mountain, and Claude is really a little suspicious.
Fortunately, Desby, a businessman, was next to him, and since he wanted to show himself, of course he had to show his presence. Leaning closer to Claude's ear, Desby whispered, "With this business alone, they may not really make money, but the publicity effect brought by the seventh-level Warcraft material is also valuable, it can enhance the reputation of the auction house itself, and it can also drive the flow of customers and raise the price of other lots."
So this time in business, although they don't have direct profits, they will bring a lot of indirect profits. At the same time, through this auction of high-grade Warcraft materials, they can also take the opportunity to attack competitors and take the opportunity to attract customers, which has many benefits. ”
Hearing Desby's words, Claude also knew that he might be thinking too much, he was not a businessman after all, and he wouldn't always think about advertising and fighting competitors. However, if there are no other problems, then leaving everything to this auction house should be a good choice for them. So Claude graciously asked Ali Meng to wait for a while, saying that he would miss the company first.
As a competent butler, Claude receives all kinds of guests on behalf of his master, and also discusses various things on behalf of his master, but the decision on things is still made by his master. So Claude returned to Zheng Feng's side and whispered in his ear to narrate and explain the conversation just now.
After listening to this, Zheng Feng thought about it, if this is just a business matter, then of course there is no problem. However, if so many high-level Warcraft materials are handed over to one family to deal with, then it will attract the attention of relevant people, etc., will this affect their future actions, and will it lead to the advance of the war plan.
Well, even if there is no big deal this time, as those high-grade Warcraft materials are sold one by one, it will be a matter of time before they attract the attention of others. On the contrary, if everything is handed over to this one house now, then other people may only pay attention to this auction house for a while, and their actions can be hidden for a while.
Thinking of this, the corners of Zheng Feng's mouth smiled. He instructed Claude to tell the other party that this business could be done, but he asked the other party to promise not to reveal the source of the goods. Zheng Feng's request, Ali Meng naturally agreed, for the seller to provide the seller of the auction to keep the confidential information, it was originally the obligation of the auction house, even if people did not bring it up, they would not casually leak it.
After the business was negotiated, Ali Meng's attitude became even more enthusiastic, and he personally sent Zheng Feng and his party out of the auction hall, and waited until the carriage they were riding disappeared around the corner of the street, and Ali Meng turned back to the auction hall.
Zheng Feng and his entourage took the carriage back to the inn, but they didn't know that along the way, someone would pay attention to them from time to time. Although there are many people in their team who have a keen sense, in this city, luxury carriages like them are basically paid attention to at any time, and it is really difficult to attract their attention if you just look at them.
On the other side, Ali Meng returned to the internal office of the auction venue non-stop after enthusiastically sending Zheng Feng and his party away, and he wanted to report the news of the business to his boss as soon as possible.
The tool that Ali Meng uses to report to work is also a magic guide, although it cannot be as convenient as a telephone, but it can transmit signals like a transmitter. This kind of equipment is in the hands of many large merchants, such as this auction house, which has another magic guide in it, which can be used for small item teleportation. However, it consumes a lot of energy to transmit items, so for general message delivery, merchants will still use those otherworldly versions of the transmitter.
It is also because of this convenient communication tool that Ali Meng wants to talk about this business. Otherwise, he would not have the right to solicit business from other branches, let alone reduce the commission to such a figure as one percent, which he had consulted with his boss beforehand.
Two days earlier, when Desby brought over the six high-grade Warcraft materials, Ali Meng began to pay attention to this matter. Level 7 items are not ordinary goods anywhere, let alone six items brought in at once. With Ali Meng's familiarity with Desby, of course, it immediately occurred to him that he had taken it out for someone else to sell.
So whether the owners of these high-level items only have these few in their hands, or are there more, Ali Meng naturally wants to know. So he pays more attention to Desby's actions these days, and the distinguished guests in this big fat man's inn are naturally in the ranks of being concerned.
And Zheng Feng's whereabouts were not deliberately hidden, those few luxury carriages, as well as the dozens of ordinary carriages pulling goods, were all easy to find. In addition, Desby accompanied Zheng Feng and them to the auction venue, and the enthusiastic and respectful attitude of this big fat man was also under Ali Meng's attention.
Just from Desby's respectful appearance to Claude, the butler, Ali Meng can already deduce some circumstances, not to mention that the big fat man also bought two bracelets from him to hide his breath, and he saw that there were people in this group with this kind of bracelet, which would increase Ali Meng's association.
