Chapter 419 New Road of the Chamber of Commerce(1/2)
These are not 20,000 people, but 20,000 caravans and shops. They may be composed of a few people, or they may be composed of dozens or even hundreds of people.
This is definitely a huge and unimaginable team, and this is the business model that Sean really wants.
The more people join this chamber of commerce, the more developed the information network will be, and the more timely and accurate the information will be. To this extent, even without the business information and unique products of the Evernight Army, they can still maintain a profit model.
It’s not that no one wants to imitate it, but understanding how it works is one thing, being able to do it is another.
The operation of such a huge group and the transmission of information would be impossible for these businessmen alone without the help of professionals from the Yong Ye Army Leader.
Especially during the start-up process, the business information provided by the Eagle Eye Network, which has been laid out for ten years by the Yongye Army leader Eagle Eye Special Service Section, also played an indispensable role.
This is not something ordinary people and ordinary forces can do.
Most of them just give up, or turn into a small workshop mode, struggling to survive.
There are also some Valesta businessmen who are willing to put down their face for the sake of profit and join this chamber of commerce, and the Eternal Night Army will not reject anyone they bring.
Anyway, they will accept the news commission. The more people join, the bigger the chamber of commerce system will be, and the greater the benefits they will get from it and the power they can allocate.
This kind of interest group, if used properly, can also be a knife that kills without blood.
"The Baron is here, the Baron is here."
"Which Baron is here? Are you so excited?"
"Nonsense, of course it's Lord Yongye Baron."
"Baron Yongye... Damn it, why didn't you tell me earlier? Come on, come on, go and invite the president."
"Which president do you want to invite?"
"Of course, please invite all five, and send the fastest one. If it's too late, be careful that the president will skin you."
"Are the pastries, fruits, and tea ready? Why are you standing still? Hurry up. The pastries must be from Alice's Pastry Room, the fruits must be the freshest and largest, and the tea must be of the highest quality... Hurry up, hurry up."
Sean's sudden visit plunged the Valesta Chamber of Commerce into an unprecedented state of panic.
Although Sean, just before the establishment of the Chamber of Commerce, sat down for a meal with the more famous people of Andis descendants, talked about his vision for the real Chamber of Commerce, and sent a team of people to assist.
After that, they never showed up again, including the big day when the Chamber of Commerce was officially established.
But Sean's reputation has grown and grown with the development of the Chamber of Commerce, and with the mutual praise of those businessmen, it has reached an unprecedented height.
Not only because what he said at that banquet is becoming reality.
It was also because the leader of the Eternal Night Army had now become famous. Not only did he win the battle in the Swamp of Despair, but his business in Valesta was also booming.
The leader of the Yongye Army left them and could still become stronger and bigger.
If they leave the Yongye Army, they will still be the same group of bastards who can bully and exploit anyone.
This understanding made them feel grateful to Sean and Yongye Army Leader, believing that the reason why they took care of them was because they were of the same ancestry.
The first president of the Chamber of Commerce to arrive is named Simon, who is a fifth-generation Andisian and Byronian mix. The traces of being Andisian on his body are already very faint, but he still cannot escape the lustful gaze and oppression.
At least that was the case two years ago.
Because he came out in a hurry and didn't even dress neatly, the president of the Chamber of Commerce with gray hair ran all the way to Sean.
"Stop comers!" Herbert, who stood behind Sean like an iron tower, took a step forward and blocked Sean in front of him like a big mountain.
"Herbert, stand down. President Simon is one of our own." Sean took the initiative to cross over to Herbert, hold the hand of the somewhat helpless President Simon, and said, "It was my guard who was rude. I
Apologize to the president on his behalf."
"My lord, the Baron, has spoken harshly, no, no, my lord has spoken harshly... Your guard did what he should do, but I was just too reckless... Lord, you still remember me. This is my greatest honor."
President Simon was obviously a little incoherent. Sean was able to accurately call his name and match his identity, which really made him a little excited. After all, this young man who is old enough to be his grandson is his oldest.
Idol.
"Although I am not in Valesta, I will be informed of every move you make as soon as possible. You have done a great job, even better than I expected." Sean did not let go of President Simon's hand.
Hand, holding his arm, looking intimate.
Sean's words were not just a perfunctory response to President Simon. The development status of the Valesta Chamber of Commerce would appear on Sean's desk in the form of a briefing every day.
In a sense, the Valesta Chamber of Commerce is just a pilot, accumulating experience for the Yongye Army to establish a formal chamber of commerce.
However, the power he unleashed was still far beyond Sean's imagination.
Based on post hoc analysis and summary.
Local forces like Simon have contributed a lot.
After all, they have been in the Byron Alliance for several generations. Although they have been suppressed, they are still developing in private. They just keep suppressing their own power and wealth in order not to be targeted.
However, their method of suppression is not not to obtain it, but to split it up.
Just like when a family gets bigger and the family property is constantly divided, the wealth of the individual will always be kept within a certain scale and will not be too big or leaky.
The emergence of the Yongye Army Leader gave them a chance to unite together, and then they burst out with an astonishing energy.
The greater the oppression in the past, the greater the outbreak.
After getting the opportunity, these descendants of the Andis began to work crazily and earn wealth with their hard-working hands.
At this point, the Andis people are surprisingly similar to the Han people.
Xiao En loves Wu and Wu, and out of thin air he has a better impression of them.
"Our contribution is very small. Everything depends on the lords and the military leaders. Because of you, we have the big family we have now, the opportunities we have now, and the right to stand up and speak. If we didn't
You, we are just a group of rats living in the gutter." President Simon said with tears streaming down his face.
He has lived in that depressed state for most of his life, so he has a deeper feeling for the new life now.
With the Evernight Army leading this big tree, they no longer have to worry about those impoverished gamblers or drunkards coming to their door.
No longer have to worry about greedy city officials throwing them into jail for any reason just because they show a little bit of wealth, and plundering their wealth inside and out, but they may not be released.
Walking on the street, they were finally able to straighten up, speak loudly, and not shy away from the fact that they had Andis blood. Not only were they no longer ashamed, but they were proud of it.
Although some people still look at them with colored eyes, they now laugh it off without caring, just like those tribesmen from the mountains said, don't regard these eyes as contempt, but as jealousy, jealous of their hard work,
Be jealous of the wealth they can create, and then turn around and use the butcher knife of merchandise to cut off their flesh bit by bit.
"The difficult days have passed, and the good days are still to come. The president should be happy." Sean comforted with a smile.
"It makes me laugh, Lord. When people get older, it is not easy to control their emotions. I am not sad, but happy, for ourselves and for the rise of our Andis people." President Simon said.
Wiping the tears on his old face, he squeezed out a smile.
"Chairman Simon, can you tell me about the specific development status of the Chamber of Commerce? What I know is mostly on paper, which is relatively one-sided. Are there any good development suggestions? You can tell me about them. It would be best to formulate a systematic plan.
Development plan." Sean stopped complimenting each other and turned to the topic. It was not a comfortable thing to be flattered by someone who could be his grandfather.
"This is my honor." President Simon, as a witness to the development of the Valesta Chamber of Commerce, knew his situation well, so he came. "If the lord does not come, we will probably have to write a letter.
Communicate this matter with you and listen to your opinions. Our chamber of commerce has reached a bottleneck in its development so far. We have almost integrated the merchant forces in Valesta and surrounding areas. If we want to continue to develop, we need
Going further, but without the protection of the lord and the princess, the risk factor will be greatly increased, and there is no way to guarantee safety with the current grouping mode alone."
"Well, this is indeed a problem. Can you think of any solutions?" Sean nodded in agreement.
The Byron Alliance has always had this virtue for many years. The overall situation is stable, but there are various local chaos. The local lords and nobles are often beaten to death because of various dirty things and interest disputes.
If the territory is neglected, various bandit groups will naturally run rampant. Many of them are even inextricably linked to the local lords, and some are directly supported by them.
Just look at the current situation on the Jacob River and you will know that even though the Yongye Army has an absolute military advantage, those greedy water rats are still emerging in a steady stream.
It is also said that it is an ordinary business traveler, and the coefficient of being robbed is higher.
The rise of the Valesta Chamber of Commerce is based on the absolute rule of the royal family of Lancelot over the royal capital. The Princess Regent's Knights of the Steel Rose conduct a sweep of the surrounding areas of the royal capital every year. Those bandit groups have either been hung up on
The crossroads are dried to warn the world, or they have already escaped.
But no matter how far away it is, in areas that are not directly controlled by the royal family, the regent princess cannot easily set foot in them, and she does not have so much energy and financial resources to manage them.
"There are two feasible options that come to mind at the moment. One is to form your own caravan guard, and the other is to use mercenaries." President Simon replied without thinking, "Both methods have their own advantages and disadvantages.
Our own caravan guards have a heavy load on the chamber of commerce. It doesn’t matter if they are too big or too small. If they are too big, we can’t afford to support them. The profits from each business trip are not enough to support them. If they are too small, they will not be able to deter bandits.
purpose.
Hiring mercenaries is a good choice, but the current mercenary industry is too chaotic, with mixed quality and bad quality, and there is no guarantee of moral character. No one knows whether the other party is pretending to be a bandit group and robbed us after leaving the city."
Mercenaries can be considered an ancient industry in Ashan, and the origin is impossible to tell. After all, there is no shortage of desperadoes in this world who do not care about their lives for money.
Anyone who works hard for money can be called a mercenary.
They can be seen everywhere in wars, adventures, errands, caravan escorts, assassinations, etc.
This is a profession that truly walks in a gray area. Good and evil are often determined by their thoughts.
"Have you considered combining these two options?" Sean asked, knocking on the table.
"Are we merging? How is it legal?" President Simon asked confused.
"The mercenary industry is in chaos because they lack a powerful certification management agency. As long as they are standardized, they can naturally be used by us." Sean replied.
"What kind of regulations? Those mercenaries are all desperadoes and will not easily listen to our mercy." It was not Simon who raised the question, but another president, Jonathan, and several other presidents followed.
After receiving the notice, they arrived one after another. When they saw that Sean was already talking about business, they did not interrupt him hastily.
