Pirate: I only come here for three things!
058 The Lord said not to steal
"Being united across mountains and rivers, we can prosper the gospel together, fight together, and sing triumphantly on the road of life."
The samurai sang on top, and everyone except the merchants gathered around in a huddle below.
After singing, Duanmu stepped forward and asked.
"What are you doing?"
"Preach."
"Missionary?"
"We are all brothers and sisters, says the Lord. If you choose to join our faith, you are one of us. We are all brothers and sisters."
"Ah, what's the matter with you coming here?"
The warrior looked at Duanmu warily.
"I haven't told you what I do yet, right? Actually, I sell soap."
After saying that, Duanmu opened the leather box next to him. I took out three or four beautiful soaps from inside. These soaps are very beautiful, with patterns engraved on them. They are foreign products that look high-end and domineering.
"My boss's soap factory has a new product made by imitating foreign soaps. He asked me to wander around in the snow just to sell this product."
"Since we are destined to be together today, these soaps should be given to you. I hope you will help us promote them in the future."
The warrior took the soap and weighed it.
"What's the name of this soap? If it's easy to use, I'll just buy your soap next time."
"Kennedy soap."
"Why do you have a foreign name?" The samurai didn't understand this.
"You don't understand this, this way the product sells better. Coupled with the emerging technology we have developed and the fragrance inside, I can guarantee that this product will be a best-seller in the streets of Wano in the future."
"Here, I'll give you a piece each. Look at what you look like now. You're so dirty and it's not easy to see people. There happens to be a creek near the front. We can go there tomorrow and fuck you. personal hygiene.”
"Smell it."
"Even though they look different, soaps with different colors have completely different tastes."
The gang all sniffed.
"It's delicious."
"Um, but I have a cold and can't smell the fragrance." The youngest one looked at everyone around him and felt a little embarrassed, holding the pink soap in his hand awkwardly.
"Really, why don't you lick it? My boss told me it's sweet, but I never dared to try it, for fear of wasting it. If you try it, you can tell me whether it's sweet or not."
Just as this man was about to do this, everyone around him fell down one after another.
Duanmu looked at the group of people who fell on the ground, and then looked at the last one who was still standing.
"You are unreasonable, why are you still standing?"
He began to direct this fish that slipped through the net.
"Come, lie down too."
The man looked at Duanmu blankly.
"Lie down!"
The man threw the harmful soap far away, then followed him obediently to the ground. He looked at the two buddies next to him and found that the pair were a little uneven, so he moved his body again.
Duanmu touched them one by one.
Five thousand Baileys, ten thousand Baileys, three thousand Baileys...
The richest person is of course their head. He hid 100,000 Baileys in the soles of his shoes. Counting the money elsewhere on his body, Duanmu plundered more than 900,000 Baileys from him alone.
"Hey, hand over your own money too."
Duanmu pointed his pistol at the only guy who was not stunned.
“The Lord tells us that we can’t get something for nothing.”
He had a salty face.
"You turn it over."
Duanmu thought to himself, it turns out that I have become rich through hard work.
The Lord said that you cannot get something for nothing, so let me take it by myself?
Duanmu actually felt a damn warmth from his actions, the kindness from an unknown stranger.
He stared at the stunned young man lying in the snow for a while, then put his hands in his pockets.
Then he dug out the soap he had just thrown away from the snow, as well as the things on other people's hands, and put them all back into his suitcase.
"You have to thank the Lord."
Seeing Duanmu preparing to leave, the stunned Qing lay on the snow and continued talking.
Duanmu thought for a while and made a Buddhist gesture. "Infinite Heavenly Lord."
………………
Mangkhut claimed that he was a small businessman from out of town and made a living by reselling food.
"These bastards are really not the same thing."
After being rescued by the two men, Mangkhut burst into tears and complained about his tragic experiences these days.
"I came from the Capital of Flowers to do business. I finally got in under the investigation of the Shuangyue family warriors. They saw the bridge exploded behind my butt. I was in a state of confusion because Brick was hijacked by this group of them. ”
"They killed the two men I was taking with me, and when they didn't know how to transport my car back to their base, they encountered the beast that suddenly appeared."
"If you two show up later, these devils are going to ask me to feed the baboon pellets directly!"
In short, it is the story of a businessman from out of town who was robbed by locals.
The local folk customs are fierce. When the officers and soldiers come, they become civilians. When the officials leave, they become bandits. It can really be regarded as having a backer and a mountain to eat. This extra income was considered a traditional craft in various feudal eras. When a caravan sells its goods from one place to another, the most troublesome point is actually how to deal with the obstacles that stand in the way of the caravan.
The impact of this kind of activity is that business practices in various parts of Wano have also undergone small changes.
"Blow up the bridge?"
"Well, the bridge to the south, I saw from a distance, was blown up by the warriors of the Shuangyue family."
The two looked at each other, and then Duanmu continued: "It's best not to tell others about this situation, for the sake of your life."
"By the way, I wonder if you are a member of the Wano Country Business Alliance?"
The merchant guild of Wano was born by merchants who were engaged in trading the same type of goods in order to optimize profits and fight against threats (nobles, bandits, etc.). The purpose of its birth is to ensure the monopoly rights of merchants over commodity operations and to provide them with legal protection.
For example, assume that Wano has a total annual cloth business of 5 million tons. The job of the Merchant Alliance is to count how much fabric the city needs on a daily basis, and then subcontract it to various merchants. This is to ensure that the overall market demand in Wano is met and that every member can make money.
At the same time, for some long-distance transportation, the chamber of commerce will also organize manpower to allow many businessmen to move forward together to reduce the threat.
And their power is not limited to that. Businessmen will hold regular meetings to not only coordinate and allocate their business resources, but also discuss the construction and management of the city, and use donations and other methods to establish the guild's treasury for maintenance. Walls, cities, building public buildings.
Does the Chamber of Commerce sound good to you?
Of all the famous names nowadays, there is no one who has survived among the mobs everywhere.
In fact, they have done a lot of work breaking off goods and finding rare items to live in. At the same time, this system caused many small traders in Wano to unite into giants. They began to squeeze the living space of small businesses and struck hard at foreigners.
Call them conservatism or local class protection. In fact, this important force in Wano has firmly stood against the founding of the country after a long period of internal struggle. They are willing to sell local crops to sky-high prices, but also to attack agricultural products imported from abroad. It doesn't matter even if a large number of people in Wano still don't have enough to eat.
And now, they are also the ones who are the quickest to switch sides with the Heitan family. This is of course because the Heitan family was originally responsible for trade and had a bit of a love affair with them. However, at the same time, the more realistic reason is that the resources in the hands of Black Tan Orochi are actually more than those in the hands of various daimyo, and Orochi's son does not feel bad at all when he sells his father's land. As the fundamental heavy industry project of Wano Country, he packaged it at almost a cabbage price. method, sold to big domestic businessmen to gain their support.
Although many of them realize that when the coalition forces of Black Carbon Orochi and Kaido completely occupy the country of Wano, the meat they eat will most likely be settled by them later, but with a profit of close to 300% , everything is not that important.
"Forehead."
"It's okay, we're not going after the things you think about." Duanmu saw that he was thinking wrongly and helped him sort out his thoughts.
"If you want to help the Merchant Alliance obtain information, please do so. That has nothing to do with us. We are not from the Shuangyue family. What the future of the bell queen has has nothing to do with me. And what I am thinking about now What you need to know is whether you have a way or not."
"That's the way to join the Chamber of Commerce."
Because of the special national conditions of Wano, if you want to do business in Wano, you have to go through the threshold of three parties.
They are the various daimyo who are landowners.
Secondly, there are the gangs responsible for grassroots security.
Finally, there are alliances that supply and provide industry insider information.
All three are indispensable. Without one, your business will be ruined.
"Ah, do you want me to be your introducer?" Shanzhu touched his chin.
"It's not impossible."
"It's just that, you see, I'm in great trouble now, and I'm afraid I won't have a chance to make a comeback."
Duanmu is smiling on the outside, but he's mad on the inside.
What does it have to do with us if you encounter a catastrophe? Make trouble for those people.
Neither party spoke. In the tense atmosphere, in the end, it was Mangkhut who couldn't withstand the pressure.
"I understand. I will act as your introducer to the Chamber of Commerce to repay the two of you for saving my life. If it weren't for you, I would have died in a foreign country and returned to the lonely wilderness."
Mangkhut carefully carried some of his belongings and walked behind the two behind them, not too far apart but also keeping a certain distance. Fiona Mag, who had been watching Duanmu's operation, finally couldn't help but stepped forward to ask.
"Will there be a risk of failure? If you just give some money, I can actually give it."
"Mangosteen is different from the previous hotel owner Zhu. Mangkhut is a businessman. He only considers his own best interests and nothing else. Zhu's goal is more complicated. What he wants is that in his hands, the Tengu Hotel can always be stable. Keep it running. To that end, we won’t do anything that would damage the reputation of the pub.”
"But he did the opposite."
He pointed at the businessman Mangkhut who was in the snow behind, clutching the last bit of merchandise on his body distressedly and reluctant to abandon it.
"For profit, he can sell the rope with which he hangs himself."
Duanmuda didn't trust any successful businessman in his heart. When they were cruel to themselves, they were usually cruel to the people around them. All of them are bastards who only eat and don't poop. As a former great country, Wano's business environment is even more extreme.
If it is not for the convenience of getting the voucher.
Duanmu silently thought about sacrifice and reward.
