Chapter 672: Negotiation

When someone speaks a frustrating remark, everyone only takes it as a concoction in the conversation, and no one takes it seriously.

For Ruan Wenyue, a person who has been rolling in the Chamber of Commerce for most of his life, there is nothing that cannot be sold, only when there is nothing to sell.

The fascination of this era is still not even a regional economy. The blacksmith shops and carpentry shops in one place have a small fight. Those who can stand in the name of 'Chamber of Commerce' are organizations that can connect multiple places and communicate with each other. As long as things are transported to the places where they are needed, they must be sold at a premium, and there can be no unsalable situation.

But that's not to say you won't lose money. The first point is, what is needed in what place? Originally, the big chamber of commerce relied on its organization to obtain information from all over the world, and then coordinated the allocation of resources below to obtain the greatest benefits. Since the forum was launched, this advantage is no longer exclusive to the big chambers of commerce, and there are more small groups of businessmen.

Another important point is the cost of transportation. Even if the oxen and horses pulling the carts, the helpers or the guards of the troops did not receive a salary, they always needed food to feed them. The longer the distance and the more time it takes, the more expensive the transportation will be. And this cost is the most important factor in making money-making goods into money-making. And that's not even counting the accidents that happen during transportation and the loss of goods.

Automobiles can be said to be a cross-era commodity, and they are a great weapon to change the form of transportation in the lost land. For the Ruan family, even if it is not for takeaway, the development of a car to transport food for their own caravan should not be underestimated, as long as it can maintain the speed it has just experienced, the value it can create in the family business cannot be underestimated.

So Ruan Wenyue almost didn't consider the possibility of failure, so he decided to cooperate with the magician in front of him.

It's just that this kind of cooperation has never been precedent, so of course he has to ask for details. If you are in business, you can't be unclear. "Your Excellency Tripwood, we are honored to have a great relationship with you. I don't know how you need our cooperation? ”

The brothers still have a clear account, and the most taboo thing about this kind of project to cooperate with others is not to have a charter. So after thinking about it for a while, Lin said, "Let's build a R&D and manufacturing center on the outskirts of the holy city to be responsible for the research and production of automobiles." In addition to providing technical support and design drawings, I also have the prototype car for people to study and reference. You are responsible for recruiting researchers and supplies, including blacksmiths, magicians, etc. In terms of materials, in addition to iron ingots, all the metals that can be collected are sent. Timber is a good solution, not to build a big ship, so the timber is not very particular, and the woods around the holy city can be obtained. ”

In this era, the attitude towards the land is completely different from that of the earth. On Earth, all countries border each other, and there is no such thing as a terra nullius on land, except for the sea and the high seas. Most people's perception of 'borderland' is actually state-owned land. Cutting down trees and hunting at the top of the mountain are all violations of the law.

But in the lost land, the registered owner's land is of course protected by local laws, and the attitude towards the wasteland belongs to whoever clears the wasteland. This is also the reason why the holy city of Estali continues to expand outwards to this day.

If it were in other corners, human beings would have to be terrified when they opened up the wasteland, for fear of being eaten raw by the hungry monsters. But in the Holy City, as long as you have the heart to deal with those woods, dig the roots, and clear the stones, you are not afraid of any wild beasts or demonic beasts.

No matter how many and strong those beasts are, there are many magicians? Is there a magic tower strong? Some of the natives of the Holy City are not afraid of trouble, and they will build houses on the periphery.

With this kind of wild growth, no one has ever thought to plan it well. That's how everyone plays anyway, and of course someone just goes with the flow. The technical guild that Uzov was in charge of at the beginning was also divided in this way, and now it is not growing vigorously.

The silverbearded dwarf is in the workshop at home, and it looks like there is something sci-fi about it. But in terms of scale, it is only a little bigger than the garage, and it is enough to engage in R&D and large-scale production. There's a Chamber of Commerce backing it up, but of course it can't be like a player's wine.

However, how big it is depends on how much one of the leaders of the Chamber of Commerce in front of him dares to invest. glanced Ruan Wenyue up and down, and there must always be an explanation for those who are divided into words. Lin said: "As for the income, in addition to deducting costs and personnel expenses, the investment in the early stage is amortized by amortization and depreciation, and the remaining profits are divided into 55 percent. If there is any decision, it will be discussed and agreed by both parties. "At the end, I also explained what 'amortization in installments' is.

Basically, someone who makes such a proposal is handing over their decision-making power half buy and half give. Even so, Ruan Van Viet's brother, Nguyen Van Chao, still spoke: "Your Excellency, if you are willing to develop, why don't you put these R&D and manufacturing centers near the iron mines controlled by my family. A large amount of raw materials can be used nearby, and it will cost a lot of transportation costs to transport them to the holy city. ”

The Nguyen brothers focused on the location of construction and development, but did not have any problem with the proportion of shares that someone later said. In their experience with magicians, there are basically only two models, they hire magicians to do things, or they work with magicians, and it doesn't happen that they work under magicians.

Because even in the cooperative mode, the mages of the Lost Land rarely get involved in specific business practices. Most of them still rely on the organizational power of the chamber of commerce to carry out the production and sales links. Therefore, when encountering things, they are also discussed, so as to avoid laymen leading insiders.

In such an environment, it seems that the master is easy to be killed by businessmen. This is not the case.

A magician who can be recognized by the Chamber of Commerce and cooperate in a cooperative mode will definitely not be a small shrimp that can be manipulated by others. If you provoke someone like Mao, seeing blood is still a trivial matter.

If you dare to say that the things in the mind of the magician are not valuable, such a chamber of commerce can not anger the magician group, and can live until the next day without being completely destroyed, it must have great ability. However, this kind of chamber of commerce with great skills has never existed.

The top intellectuals in the Lost Land are almost synonymous with the most dangerous existence in the Lost Land. People who don't do business will make themselves uncomfortable. What's more, the one who is serving in front of him is still a master who doesn't know the depths, and no one really dares to call him as a worker.

However, the meaning of discussing everything is to express one's thoughts correctly. If no one can convince anyone, it is up to them to see who wants to back down, or seek common ground while reserving differences, and negotiate a mutually agreeable solution. There is no concept of shareholding system and proportion, as long as it is cooperative, everyone is equal.

Therefore, Lin explained: "I don't know the location of your family's minerals. But to do research and development, the first priority is talent. In terms of human resources, I don't think there are many places in Midi that are better than the Holy City. If Mr. Ruan's manpower can't solve the problem, I may not be able to find a suitable solution for a while, there are so many magicians in the Holy City, there will always be someone who has a way. Therefore, I think that the first step in the automobile industry should be carried out in the holy city, and not because of the cost of transporting raw materials, so it should be placed near the pit where the birds do not poop. Not to mention that if we have enough funds, we can hire more people, set up multiple R&D teams, and standardize the manufacturing process of ordinary metals in automobiles in one go. The sooner this goal is achieved, the sooner we can make and sell cars profitably. After that, it is only necessary to retain one or two of the best R&D teams and continue to improve the research. Such an advantage cannot be achieved outside of the Holy City. ”

Someone's arrangement, according to his own eyes, has almost no secrecy to speak of. Including the production of printing presses, the same, although it is useful to disperse the parts and increase the difficulty of other people's copycats, but it only increases the difficulty, not really prevent blockage.

Of course, he also thought about keeping the technology secret, eating alone, holding money, and building a magic tower. But on second thought, it makes no sense at all.

If you join a certain force today, or travel back to a certain dynasty in the Tang, Song, Yuan, Ming and Qing dynasties, facing the pressure of foreign invasion and extinction, you will use advanced technology to crush the backward natives, which will have a taste.

But today I am alone, and I don't have a sense of belonging to any country. And before crossing by himself, his popularity was so good that he couldn't even choose a class president in elementary school, so he didn't think about forming his own forces and being the king or something. Not to mention far away, even these people gathered around them, there are few people who are worry-free.

Therefore, for the advanced technology in the hand, the best way to do it, and throw it to the head of the iron to charge ahead, and pick up some cheap in the back. And to make people stupidly rush, of course, there must be enough interests as an inducement.

Using this way of casting a wide net and hiding behind the curtain to accumulate one's wealth can be said to be someone's policy in recent years.

After all, in a world like Mazeland, where there is individual power, financial resources, power, and power are ultimately no match for strength. It's really pointless to hold money.

It's just that for someone, his concession is not appreciated. Nguyen Van Zhao laughed contemptuously and said, "If I say that our family firmly disagrees, what kind of center should be located in the Holy City, but it must be located in our family's territory. What will you do? Lord Sorcerer. ”

"At that time, I will have to entrust this idea to the craftsmen of the Technology Guild, who will study and tackle key problems. This is just a longer R&D cycle and a slower return on investment. But I'm not in a hurry. Lin smiled.

Such an answer, of course, chokes people to the point of speechlessness. Lin just made it clear that you came to beg me for this matter, not for me to beg you. Who is the sample of Naqiao shown to?

At this time, Ruan Wenyue, who is his own brother, of course, wants to come forward to play a round, in fact, what his own brother did just now was not instructed by himself. He just kept silent and watched the situation develop. However, as I guessed, I couldn't please this magician's unreasonable request.

"Your Excellency Tripwood, I agree to all of Your Lord's conditions, and it will not be a problem to establish a base of our Chamber of Commerce here in the Holy City, as well as to develop a research and development center."

"It's great."

His Holiness Babak Abunahan, who had been watching from the sidelines, suddenly said, "Would you like to accept any more collaborators?" ”

Ruan Wenyue frowned for the first time at Fa Sheng's sideways behavior. But Lin smiled like a flower and said, "The more the merrier." ”
