In the port of Kello, the dark sea at night was stained red by the roaring fire from the direction of the port, the noise of chaos on the part of the port arose, the ships docked in the harbor opened anchor one after another to avoid the fire, and a large number of goods parked on the dock were burned by the fire because they could not be transported,

"This is?" Governor Basinla, who had just expressed some disdain for the humiliating sneak attack failure of the Ali Chamber of Commerce, was looking into the distance with a stunned face at this time, and his pupils constricted

"My lord, the harbor is on fire," a servant ran in with a panicked look

"I can see it!" Governor Basinla asked with a grim face, "what the hell is going on? Didn't it mean that the ambush of the Ali Chamber of Commerce failed? Why is the port burning now!",

"The little one is not very clear," said the servant, with an ugly face. The fire started suddenly, it was not late at night, and there were still many pedestrians on the streets of the port, but in this case, an unknown number of masked people rushed into the port on horseback, holding torches in their hands, and threw the easily burning oil bags to the docks, the houses on both sides of the street, the taverns, and even the few low-level brothels in the port at that time did not let go, a fire that swept the entire port broke out like this, small suspicions, this should be the move of the Ali Chamber of Commerce, and it should be understandable that the sneak attack was changed to a strong attack after the failure."

"If the Baibao Lansu of the Ali Chamber of Commerce had such a ability, he would not have been almost squeezed out of the port in the first place!"

Ba Xinla's face was gloomy, and the corners of his mouth twitched, what kind of person Bai Bao Lan Su was, he still knew better, thinking that Bai Bao Lan Su, who had just become the head of the Kailo Port Branch, was very average in all kinds of appearances and abilities, and was almost squeezed out of the port by Kubel in the three major chambers of commerce, it was Bai Bao Lan Su who cried and shouted to find the Governor's Palace, saying that he would pay an extra 10% of the annual tribute, and he could be regarded as a diligent guy. And for the sake of being more obedient, Governor Basinla stepped in to stop the aggressiveness of the Kuber Chamber of Commerce. And several times told the Ali Chamber of Commerce that as long as Bai Bao Lan Su is the head of the branch, the Governor's Office will try its best to help, and Bai Bao Lan Su can gain a firm foothold in Kailuo Port.

"What do you mean, my lord, that the Ali Chamber of Commerce was used by others and became a stepping stone for other chambers of commerce?" The henchman servant was also clever, and quickly reacted,

"It should be, otherwise. This fire is too coincidental!" "What kind of person is Ba Xinla, who has been in charge of the empire's largest foreign trade port for fifteen years, and the businessman's intrigue has seen too much, this time the emperor ** department released a huge order, and made it clear that this order will only fall into one in the end, not all three can get involved, in this case, it can not only hit the Falcon Imperial Chamber of Commerce, but also be able to step on the Ali Chamber of Commerce. Even if it's yourself, you won't hesitate to do it

"Behind this fire, there are the figures of the three major chambers of commerce of Eero, at the same time as the Ali Chamber of Commerce ambushed the leader of the Imperial Chamber of Commerce. Taking such a ruthless action against the port where the Falcon Imperial Chamber of Commerce's base camp is located can not only achieve remarkable results, but also fiercely counter the incompetence of the Ali Chamber of Commerce, killing two birds with one stone."

Basinla's voice paused. His angry gaze focused on a house in the harbor that had collapsed due to burning in the distance, and said in a condensed voice, "If I am not mistaken, it should be the handiwork of the young merchant master of the Solomon Chamber of Commerce." It was already a little strange that in such a tense atmosphere, why did this young merchant lord get involved in danger, "Now it seems that this young merchant chamber of commerce has the intention of taking advantage of this to stand out, the Solomon Chamber of Commerce has been at the head of the Imperial Chamber of Commerce for hundreds of years, and it is really not easy for someone to become a young merchant master, just by using this shady means, is he not afraid of the retribution of the Falcon Imperial Chamber of Commerce?" Basinla looked at the fire light of the red half of the sky in the port, and his face flickered, the governor of fifteen years, he had never seen any scene, the struggle between chambers of commerce, especially the competition between large chambers of commerce, was not inferior to a real war between two countries, businessmen pursued profits, even if one side wins, it does not mean that the other party does not have the ability to pull together to die, so even if it is the victorious side, it will be cautious not to touch the bottom line of the other party

And this fire undoubtedly burned the bottom line of the Falcon Empire Chamber of Commerce, the loss of goods is inevitable, and more importantly, it also caused casualties, ambushes, and fire prevention, is this to be wiped out? The question is, there are tens of thousands of Falcon Empire merchants and sailors in the entire Port of Kailo, have you finished killing them?, this trip is too muddy, and there is even the possibility of turning into a storm, if even the Governor's Mansion is involved, then this struggle of the Civil Chamber of Commerce will be dyed with official colors, and at that time, the naval warships of the Falcon Empire will really have an excuse to shell Port Kailo"Order the city guards to withdraw from the port and the area of the three major chambers of commerce starting tomorrow!"

Governor Basinla ordered his servants, and it can be seen that he also hates the people who set fire to the port tonight, the largest foreign trade port in the empire, Basinla has invested countless efforts, as well as the complete facilities of the port and hundreds of docks, as well as the huge economic circle formed with the port as the center, this time it can be regarded as filling in this sea of fire, it is also a loss of millions of gold coins, these guys are burned, and Basinla is responsible for wiping his ass, how is it possible, aren't you amazing? Okay, then let's face the revenge of the Falcon Imperial Chamber of Commerce, this kind of thing, the Governor's Mansion should not be a substitute for the dead ghost! It can be seen that Governor Basinla has hated it to the core

The sky dyed by the firelight is as gorgeous as the sunset, and the banquet has automatically stopped at this time, even if the tune in the hall is melodious and beautiful, such a big fire at the moment, and the noise from the direction of the street, everyone is curious to go to the balcony and look at the direction of the fire, the harbor in early winter is a place where the wind is strong, and the flames cannot be suppressed at all with the help of the wind, like a huge fire snake that swallows from the east and west ends to the middle, rolling and sparks will swallow up large and small buildings,

"It's such a big fire, I'm afraid the whole port is burning," someone exclaimed,

"I'm afraid that some people are going to cry this time" There are also people with obvious schadenfreude in their tones, and some people are a little pale, the fire is in the direction of the port, who doesn't know where most of the goods of the Falcon Empire Chamber of Commerce are, such a big fire, I'm afraid that the entire port will not be spared, some of the nobles who have industries in the port, can't help but raise their hearts, with the influx of the Falcon Empire's merchant fleet, the current port is prosperous with every inch of land, so a fire will burn down. At least it was a loss of tens of thousands of gold coins, and soon someone said goodbye to the governor's palace, and rushed over to see the situation in a hurry.

On the periphery of the port, the number of horse-drawn carriages was parked there

The people in charge of the Imperial Chamber of Commerce who had just thwarted the ambush of the Ali Chamber of Commerce, at this time, looking at the port engulfed in flames, their eyes were bloodshot, their fingers were clenched into fists, and the ambush did not achieve arson to the port!

"This is never going to end like this!"

The head of the Port of Kailo Business Alliance, Akfusu, swears. He reported to the Ministry of Maritime Trade of the Commercial Alliance in the south of Gangfei as quickly as possible, and attached the testimony of many eyewitnesses at that time to the report, although there was no clear evidence, but the arrow pointed to the three major chambers of commerce of the Eero Empire,

Because the day after the fire was extinguished, the three major chambers of commerce of the Eero Empire began to pour goods, occupy market share, and buy the burned shops from the nobles who owned the port industry at a high price. The purchase price was comparable to that of the intact state, the losses of the native nobles in the fire were almost negligible, and the calls for the Governor's Office to intervene in the investigation were also gone, and the Governor's Palace was rarely silent on the matter. Let the port of Kailo, which has just experienced a fire, be shrouded in a strange atmosphere, and now the entire port of Kailo is watching what the merchants of the Falcon Empire will do!

The report of the Port Kello fire reached the Maritime Trade Department of the Business Alliance on the fifth day. With the development of the Imperial Sea Trade, the scale of the Maritime Trade Department of the Business Alliance has ranked first among the departments of the Commercial Alliance, and the spacious and bright Maritime Trade Department building has four floors. Men framed in marble, holding hurried clerks and holding bills of lading of various colors are the most common in this building

Holding the report of the fire in Port Kellow, a senior adjutant of the Ministry of Maritime Trade walked into an office at the top of the Ministry of Maritime Trade, the sun shining through the stained glass, this office has a lot of space, but not many facilities, a large desk and a long cabinet stacked with all kinds of materials, and some antique white statues with personal preferences,

He Ruile, the head of the Department of Maritime Trade, is putting a document on the right side of the table, this is his habit, put the unsigned one on the left, and put the signed one on the right, even if he is not in his native country, his deputy will not take away the unsigned document, especially some documents involving trade secrets, it is an earthquake to release it, for example, the one he just signed, which was sent by the Imperial Admiralty,

The content is that the Imperial Navy will have a large number of new officers to arrive in the south of Gangfei in the near future, and the Admiralty will let some officers come to the Commercial Alliance to study according to the usual practice, because the Imperial Sea is too vast, even the Navy officers cannot go to every area, so to understand the various environments and weather of these unfamiliar sea areas, the collection of the Commercial Alliance is the most complete, even if it is a lot of maps of the Imperial Admiralty, they are borrowed from the Commercial Alliance Maritime Trade Department, so the practice of letting officers learn from the Commercial Alliance is not uncommon in the Navy, and it is recognized that this is the best way to understand the Imperial Sea in the shortest time

Only this time, the number is really a bit large, a full 527 people! Is this the sending of half of the Imperial Admiralty?

"Varik, what's wrong?"

He Ruile, who was feeling a little distressed, saw the adjutant who walked in the door, and the solemnity on the adjutant's face made him suddenly have a hint of foreboding in his heart, "It can't be a report from the south." He Ruile said to himself a little, the south he was referring to is the area south of the Inland Sea, recently, the area south of the Inland Sea has begun to become tense, Fei Ze, the Eero Empire and other regions have obvious rejection and slander of the empire's merchants, which makes He Ruile, who is in charge of the Ministry of Maritime Trade, have a headache, although the business alliance is strong, the merchants under his control are not 100,000 but 50,000 or 60,000,

But the security of the business alliance itself is attached to the shocking and powerful force of the Falcon Empire, just like the southern region of the Inland Sea, which is the edge of the empire's military deterrence, in the face of various provocations, the business alliance has no way, at most to engage in a trade embargo or something, no muscles, no bones, who cares about you!

"My lord, this is just received!" Adjutant Varik handed over the report in his hand,

"This ...... Is it true?" He Ruile jumped up from his seat at a glance, Kailo, the largest foreign trade port in the Eero Empire, was set on fire, burning countless goods, causing 187 casualties among the Imperial sailors, where can He Ruile still be able to sit still, you must know that the ocean-going merchant fleet of his He Rui family is now in Kailo Harbor "My lord." If you can, can you contact the Imperial Navy? Varik, who has always been gentle to people, also had a chill on his face at this time, "Imperial Navy...... I'm just afraid of the difficulty" He Ruile smiled bitterly at the corner of his mouth, the port was burned, people died, and there were more merchants and sailors waiting for the reply of the commercial alliance, if they still blindly put up with it like this, it would really chill everyone's hearts, but where is the Imperial Navy where the commercial alliance can instruct the move, "My lord, at this time, why don't you go and ask for that" Adjutant Varik hesitated for a moment, and said boldly

Ay...... The computer is broken, and I have a new one (to be continued......)
