"Dumping at low prices, occupying the market, and then cutting leeks after the market is unified. Sure enough, no matter where it is, this method is the best business model for big capital and big businesses."

A sneer appeared at the corner of his mouth. Wang Daoyi shook his head slightly. He really looked down on the despicable methods of the fools.

However, looking down on them is looking down on them. If the fools really succeed and the food channel is completely occupied by them, then Chisha will really get some blood.

After a slight change of thought, Wang Daoyi came up with a response plan.

"West Germany, re-plan the tribe's grain procurement plan, avoid purchasing large amounts of grain from the same chamber of commerce, conduct public auctions, and select the cheapest three or five companies for purchase. In addition, add half of the grain storage warehouses for grain storage. .”

If Wang Daoyi didn't know about this, the Fools could have occupied the entire market at a low price. Unfortunately, now that Wang Daoyi knew about it, it would be different.

Xi De's expression changed, and he heard the meaning of Wang Dao's words. Did the caravan just come with malicious intentions?

It's so abominable!

West Germany was so angry that he wanted to call people to arrest and chop those people.

However, being at the top for so long finally gave West Germany some strength and calmed him down. He thought for a moment, if he really killed these people directly,

Then the credibility that Chisha has worked so hard to build in the rain forest may collapse.

On the side, Wang Daoyi watched Xi De calm down and nodded secretly, it was okay, at least he was not overwhelmed by anger.

Wang Daoyi knew West Germany too well;

Dedicate yourself wholeheartedly to Wang Daoyi,

Xi De does not seek glory, wealth, or longevity. What he seeks is only Wang Daoyi's gaze.

Therefore, in the eyes of West Germany, you can scold him, beat him, or even kill him,

But we must not have any ill will toward the Chisha tribe or Wang Daoyi.

Otherwise, you are provoking him.

And when Wang Daoyi saw that West Germany had suppressed the anger in his heart and thought calmly, he showed a satisfied look like this,

Controlling your anger and thinking about problems calmly is a sign of growth.

"It seems you have thought of some solutions." Seeing West Germany calm down and thinking, and smiling again, Wang Daoyi knew that this guy must have come up with some solutions.

West Germany quickly put away his smile and said respectfully to Wang Daoyi: "I have some ideas, and I still need your approval."

"Oh, let's talk about it first."

West Germany took a step forward and whispered: "That's right, if they want to control our food market, they must know our food needs."

"However, the tribe is currently expanding outwards and a large number of new settlements have been established. Except for a few high-level officials, few people know how many people we have and how much food we need."

"So, in order to know our food needs, they will definitely make inquiries. When the time comes, I will send someone to reveal the information to them. However, the food needs in this news will increase several times, or even more than ten times."

"Whether they believe it or not, I will purchase grain according to this quantity, but the price will be kept to the lowest."

"They give us grain, but if we transport it, we will lose money. If we buy low-priced grain, we will make money."

West Germany revealed his plan. It was indeed a very simple plan. The only thing that could be considered a strategy was the false news revealed in the plan.

However, Wang Dao nodded without questioning anything.

"Then just do what you want. Remember, no matter what the situation is, gather enough food first. Okay, you go and prepare."

Sid nodded, and after receiving Wang Dao's "affirmation", he left happily.

Watching West Germany leave, Wang Daoyi shook his head slightly. Compared to West Germany's initial plan to purchase scholars, this plan was at least more thorough.

Wang Daoyi was not interested in whether West Germany's plan would succeed.

Whether it was success or failure, it no longer mattered after the fools' food plan was discovered by Wang Daoyi.

The Fools want to control the food import and export of Chisha, but they are not the only food merchants in Xumi.

At this point, they won't be able to complete the blockade.

This is also the reason why Wang Daoyi felt that the doctor planned this matter. Only a doctor would make such a random plan.

Because if you are a rich person, you will not do this at all. In other words, while the rich are doing it, they will definitely suppress other grain merchants in Xumi City and complete the unification (monopoly) of the industry.

And the doctor probably just gave the order, ‘Go and control the food passage in Chisha. 'In this case.

It's not that the doctor doesn't understand business, it's that he doesn't care at all. It's best if he succeeds, and if he fails, he just fails.

When he experimented, he failed far more often than he succeeded.

Rich people use business thinking to do things, planning, coordinating, executing, and harvesting, and every step is calculated.

The doctorate has a pure researcher mentality, and he is also the kind of macroscopic researcher. What he wants is the various data in the experimental process, not the final result.

Because he himself knows that according to his own approach, the result itself is uncontrollable.

To put it bluntly, it’s just fun!

But it's this 'just for fun' mentality that makes the doctor particularly difficult to deal with.

——

On the other side, West Germany came to the meeting hall dedicated to receiving merchants. The place was already filled with businessmen from all walks of life.

It’s not that today is a big day,

But after the news of Chisha opening up the desert trade route spread, many businessmen who couldn't make it in the rainforest wanted to come here to have a look.

What, why do you think we can’t survive in the rainforest?

Ha, then we have to ask about the tax officer system established by the Order.

Although the sages look down on the profits of those small chambers of commerce, the tax officials do not dislike these light soups. For them, one bite counts.

Therefore, in the list drawn up by Elhaysen for Nasida, these are most of the tax officials, and they are all the targets to be cleaned up. The crime may not lead to death, but exile or imprisonment is indispensable.

Seeing West Germany coming over, these businessmen immediately burst into noise.

"Elder West De, Elder West De, our Chamber of Commerce's price is definitely the lowest."

"Elder Xi De, are you satisfied with the gift I gave you last time? We still have some here and will send them to you shortly."

The sounds of bidding and giving gifts are endless.

That's right, West Germany accepts gifts, and he never accepts them in secret, he always accepts them openly, and he also does things after accepting gifts, and he is a childlike and honest person.

The same quality and the same price range, if you give a gift and others don’t, then place an order at your place.

Well, not only the businessmen who came here knew about it, but even Wang Daoyi knew about it.

As for the gifts Xi De received, some of them were used by himself, and some were thrown away in Chisha's warehouse because he didn't need them.

It can be called the second person in the tribe who can make extra money.

He used to be number one, but since Nicored came, he has become number two.

Go to the center of the crowd,

West Germany stretched out his hand and pressed it lightly to tell everyone to be quiet.

Obviously, West Germany has prestige here, and the noisy voices quickly subsided, and the breath became quiet.

West Germany nodded with satisfaction, and then said with a friendly smile: "Everyone, the purchase volume this time will be doubled compared to the last time."

He announced a big news first,

The eyes of the businessmen present immediately glowed with greed.

Some merchants have begun to calculate what kind of discounts can be used to maximize profits.

Then they heard West Germany speak again: "However, this time the bidding will be changed. In the previous bidding, everyone kept shouting low prices, which hurt the harmony, so this time, secret bidding will be used."

"Elder West Germany, what kind of bidding method is secret bidding?" As if it was a pre-arranged compliment, someone immediately raised their hands and asked.

West Germany smiled at the person who raised his hand: "This friend asked me well, what is secret bidding? We will send you a special piece of paper at that time, with the goods we purchased this time on it. You fill in the list with the most suitable price in your mind, and when the time comes, we will purchase whoever has the cheapest price and meets the quality standards."

"We agreed in advance that after we decide on a supplier for cooperation this time, within the next six months, unless the corresponding supplier raises the price, we will not change the supplier."

After Sid finished speaking, he stopped talking and looked at everyone with a smile.

The expressions on the faces of the merchants on the side kept changing, and they kept yelling at West Germany, saying they didn't want everyone to bid and ruin the peace. It turned out that he had prepared such an insidious method.

The people present were all old businessmen, so we could naturally see the malice in West Germany's plan.

However, this is a conspiracy. Unless the businessmen present can unite, it will be unsolvable.

But, can these people unite?

Most of them are competitors, and whoever dares to believe what the other says deserves to go bankrupt.

Looking at each other, each businessman saw three big words in the eyes of the person next to him, that is - distrust.

Silently looking at these merchants, West Germany showed an undisguised smile in his eyes, and then waved to the guard not far away: "Come here, give the goods list to all the guests."

"Everyone, please note that each caravan only has one cargo bill. After filling it out, please stamp the corresponding caravan's seal so that we can find someone to check. If the seal is not stamped, it will be deemed as giving up the bidding."

"Don't worry about opponents deliberately forging your chamber of commerce's cargo manifests. If the seals on the two cargo manifests are the same, we will send someone to verify it with you."

"In addition, the minimum number of decimal places for pricing is two. That is to say, for a piece of goods, you can order 1.11 mola or 1.12 mola, but you are not allowed to price it at 1.115 mola. Everyone can understand this."

"Finally, we will take back the cargo list in an hour. By the way, if there is anything we need to discuss, we have prepared more than 20 small tents outside with soundproof alchemy equipment inside. You can use them for free."

Seeing West Germany looking like I have prepared everything for you,

These businessmen held the bills of goods in their hands and walked out without saying a word. Judging from their momentum, it seemed that they were not going to discuss, but leaving the meeting angrily.

West Germany didn't care about the mood of these businessmen at all, and sat directly on the big chair in the camp, waiting for these people to come back and submit their reports.

Although West Germany gave a full hour,

But in fact, within ten minutes, someone came over to hand over the bill of goods. While handing over the goods, he did not forget to put the 'souvenir' into West Germany's hand.

"These are some local specialties from my hometown. Elder Xide, please accept them."

It just so happens that West Germany is not a polite person. No matter what you give, as long as you give it, he will accept it.

These businessmen do not understand West Germany nor Chisha;

They regard this place as the Order House, and think that West Germany will help a little bit if he accepts the gift. Unfortunately, from West Germany's point of view, if I have accepted it all, doesn't it mean that I have taken it all away!

As for these businessmen reporting him for accepting gifts?

Ha, it doesn't matter. As for the tribal people accepting bribes from outsiders, there is a manager in Chisha who is responsible for this. Well, his name is Xi De.

As the chief steward of Chisha, West Germany will of course judge the major incident in which a member of this race was bribed by outsiders.

The West German elder who is both the defendant and the judge is so unscrupulous.

Soon, most merchants did not wait for an hour, but sent the goods list back within half an hour, and filled in the minimum profit price they had calculated.

After another ten minutes, more than half of the time had passed, and the last cargo bill was returned to West Germany's hands.

After waving, a guard ran over and took away the cargo list in West Germany's hand.

"Dear guests, next our people will compare each cargo list and select the cheapest products. These selected products will be Chisha's next partners."

"Of course, if your chamber of commerce is not selected by us, it doesn't matter. Next, Chisha will gradually increase trade. If you were not selected this time, maybe it will be OK next time."

Many businessmen looked at West Germany with sympathetic smiles on their faces, and their hearts were filled with hatred.

As I said before, most of them are competitors.

Once the opponent obtains a huge stable order from Chisha and has a stable source of funds, then a run on other markets will inevitably come.

A stable trade that lasts for half a year is enough for opponents to squeeze him in some areas for half a year. Those who have not obtained orders will either lose money and fight for capital with their opponents, or stop their losses and leave the market, leaving the market to their opponents.

No matter which outcome it is, these businessmen cannot accept it.

And this is exactly what West Germany wants to see. In order to preserve business in other areas, these people will inevitably push prices here to the limit they can afford.

"The comparison may take a long time. Chisha has prepared some pastries for everyone. Please feel free to enjoy them."

As he said that, a maid delivered plates of cakes to the tent.

However, how can the merchants, who are busy with orders, be in the mood to eat?

As time passed bit by bit, the businessmen interpreted various aspects of life.

Some are still anxious, while others are slowly relaxing.

Some people also touched the pastries that were originally there for viewing.

Well, although it looks average, smells average, and tastes average, this pastry seems to be quite delicious after being hungry for a long time.

After a while, a guard came in from outside and handed a list to West Germany.

West Germany took the list and stood up, immediately attracting everyone's attention.

In other words, the list in West Germany's hands attracted everyone's attention.

"Ahem." After clearing his throat, Sid looked around and made sure that everyone was looking at him before he started to give his name, "Adiya Chamber of Commerce, cloth, lowest price, 346.45 moras per piece, are you sure? ?”

As soon as West Germany's voice fell, someone immediately raised their hands: "Confirmed by the Adiya Chamber of Commerce."

"Okay, sir, please stay and sign the contract after the bidding is over." West Germany nodded to the person who raised his hand, and then continued to look at the price list in his hand, "Brook Chamber of Commerce, Ordinary Adventurer Medical Assistance Package , one, 854.37 Mora, are you sure?”

In the audience, a young man looked happy and immediately raised his hand: "Brook Chamber of Commerce, confirm."

West Germany nodded to him and didn't say anything more this time. He continued to tell the names of the chambers of commerce on the list.

As the partners of the goods were confirmed one by one, some people in the audience were happy and some were worried, and there were all kinds of emotions in the world.

"The last item, grain, the lowest price, Elchingen Chamber of Commerce, staple food, 4 moles per kilogram; vegetables, comprehensive calculation, 8 moles per kilogram; meat, comprehensive calculation, 14.35 moles per kilogram, are you sure?"

Amid the uproar, the debtors of the Elchingen Chamber of Commerce raised their hands.

The other businessmen looked at him like an idiot,

This price happens to be the lowest price in the Xumi market. In other words, every time people from the Elchingen Chamber of Commerce sell food to the Chisha tribe, they will lose money in labor costs, transportation costs and time costs.

This is a complete loss-making business.

Looking at the mocking looks in the other businessmen's eyes, the head of the Elchingen Chamber of Commerce also mocked him in the same way. His purpose of coming here was never to make money.

It only costs a little labor, transportation, and time. To the fools, is that a big deal?

Before he could feel happy in his heart for a while, he heard West Germany announcing over there: "This auction has ended. Friends who have taken the order, please stay and sign the contract."

As a result, most of the merchants in the tent who were originally full left the table angrily.

The person in charge of the Elchingen Chamber of Commerce, like other people who had taken photos of the orders, watched these people leave with a smile. The reason why he smiled was because he found that among these people, there were chambers of commerce that could provide large amounts of food.

Watching those potential plan saboteurs leave, the head of the Elchingen Chamber of Commerce walked to West Germany with a grin on his face, waiting to sign the contract.

the other side,

After some businessmen left the camp and prepared to pack up their things and leave, they were told that Elder West Germany had asked them to meet in the evening.

Although they didn't know what happened, thinking about Elder West Germany's behavior of never refusing gifts to anyone who came, these businessmen suddenly felt a little hope again.

This time, it seems that there is still a chance to get another order from Chisha.

So, those people who were about to leave immediately made some excuses about the long journey and prepared to rest in Chisha for a night.

That night,

Some people were quietly welcomed into a secret tent,

In the camp, the West German elder who had tricked the businessmen with his secret camera during the day was waiting for them.

When a group of people entered the camp, they looked at West Germany without saying a word. They had to figure out what West Germany was doing.

"Ahem, you must have discovered that you are all famous grain merchants in Xumi."

"During the secret auction during the day, although the price offered by the Elchingen Chamber of Commerce was the lowest, I was a little worried. I was afraid that they would not be able to supply for a long time before breaking the contract. By then, the breakup fee would be small. Blood relatives of the tribe You will be hungry, so I left you here to see if you are still willing to sell food to Chisha?"

After listening to West Germany's words, these businessmen looked at each other. They originally thought that the Elchingen Chamber of Commerce was doing business at a loss. Now West Germany doubts that they are not lasting. That is normal.

As for whether they are still willing to sell grain to Chisha, just kidding, as long as they can make money, they will definitely be willing.

"Elder West Germany, it is certainly possible to sell food, but we cannot do it at the price of the Elchingen Chamber of Commerce."

"Ha, don't worry, you won't let your friends suffer. I averaged the prices you quoted, and almost every item is 1-2 molars more expensive than the one from the Elchingen Chamber of Commerce, right?"

Don't underestimate the amount of 1-2 molas. When converted to the size of Chisha, it is a very scary number.

Calculating an average, there are currently 35,000 people resident in Chisha Headquarters in the Fertile Oasis. Calculating one kilogram of grain per person per day, that is 35,000 kilograms, which is a profit of 35,000 to 70,000 molas.

And after one year, that is a profit of 12.6 million to 25.2 million molas. Moreover, this is only the headquarters of Chisha. In the entire Great Chisha Sea, Chisha has countless branches, most of which need to be supported by the headquarters. Woolen cloth.

After one year, this profit is an extremely huge number.

Therefore, the legal leaders of the major caravans nodded repeatedly: "Yes, yes, Elder West Germany, this is the lowest profit margin. Excluding manpower, transportation, time, and loss reporting, we can only make hard money."

"Haha." West Germany smiled with a smile on his face, thinking in his heart, this is just hard-earned money. Before the establishment of Chisha, which desert tribe could come up with such a sum of money?

"Of course, of course, it's hard-earned money. Let's average it out and add 1.3 molars to the price of the Elchingen Chamber of Commerce. How about that?"

The leaders of the Chamber of Commerce looked at each other, how did you average this 1.3?

However, looking at Sid's smiling face, they felt that the remaining 0.2 was probably swallowed by this man.

They cursed West Germany's greed in their hearts, but they did not bargain any more and nodded to West Germany: "Yeah, yeah, Elder West Germany's calculation is good, Elder West's calculation is wonderful."

The next step was to sign the contract, and then everyone went back to their tents with smiles on their faces.

Wait until everyone has left,

Only then did Syd support his head with his hands tiredly.

"It's another huge sum of money. Alas, we need to increase revenue and reduce expenditure. We need to increase revenue and reduce expenditure."
