Dane didn't believe that the businessmen in Shahai Bay Port would resist the tax. Those businessmen were not that stupid, and they fought face-to-face. What can they do to Dane
It doesn't matter, but Dane, who has a knife in his hand, will definitely make them count as one, and none of them will even try to run away.
Seeing Dane's disbelief, Goodell was also a little embarrassed.
"Which... Dane, I heard about the tax resistance."
"How about the credibility? Don't scare me here." Dane threatened him.
Goodell thought for a while, and said: "I dare not say with 100% certainty that this news is accurate, but there is always 60% to 70%. Moreover, even if they do not resist taxes, they must have other means to use."
"Hehe." Dane sneered, and said: "The soldiers came to cover the water and soil, I don't believe that those corpses hanging on the road from Shawan Port to the north have not dried yet, someone dares to provoke me at this time? "
Goodell said, "Dane, I know what you're thinking. But I think it's really possible for them to take a tax-resistant attitude. They won't be so afraid of your butcher knife, and your knife may not really be able to chop. To the person who should be cut."
"Huh?" Dane raised his eyebrows and said, "What do you mean?"
Goodell organized his language and said: "Boss Dane, you haven't been in Shahaiwan Port, you may not know, but if you ask General Verina, she will definitely understand. Those in Shahaiwan Port can really Big businessmen who speak their minds, their influence is definitely not just in the port."
This is a place that Dane has been neglecting. He straightened his body, and put down the quilt in his hand: "Tell me about it."
Therefore, Goodell roughly based on his own understanding, and told Dane about the power composition of the Shahaiwan Port General Affairs Office.
The General Affairs Office of Shahaiwan Port is an actual governance institution for Shahaiwan Port under the control of the Shahai Commercial Guild. In other words, although they are nominally 'guild-style institutions regulating commercial activities in the port', in fact, they are the real government of Shawan Port.
This situation has been formed before Malone and Moreno competed tit-for-tat for the Shawan Port, and it has not wavered for decades.
As a government organization, and a government organization controlled by businessmen, their position in Shawan Harbor is deeply rooted. From the shops on the market, to the caravans at the port, to the import and export channels, to the external generating enterprises, to the gray and black underground social organizations...
Without exception, all of these are inextricably linked to the General Affairs Office.
Therefore, if Dane really wants to clean up the General Affairs Office from top to bottom, he can easily do it across the board, but the entire port is estimated to be paralyzed soon.
This is not a problem that can be solved with an army in hand.
Another point is that these big businessmen in Shawan Port who really control the lifeline, without exception, are almost all multinational chambers of commerce.
For example, the Shire United Chamber of Commerce where Goodale works, they also have interests in Shawan Port, and there are also powerful and voting agents in the commercial guild. In addition, of the same nature, there are Sequoia Chamber of Commerce and Glittering Gold Chamber of Commerce. The former is a large chamber of commerce whose commercial territory spans the Kingdom of Pudori and the Duchy of Florence. The master behind the scenes is said to be a prince of the Kingdom of Pudori.
As for the Glittering Gold Chamber of Commerce, although they do not have the same background as the former, their sphere of influence is not limited to Shawan Harbor. Cinderella in the north is their base camp, and their business covers Lost City in the north. Fort, and even intersects with the Chief in the Badlands farther east. Although the boss of the Glittering Gold Chamber of Commerce is just a pure businessman, it is said that two-thirds of Schindler's warlords have received his funding, including Oze and Conley.
In addition to the Shire United Chamber of Commerce, the boss of these three Shawan Ports, can Dane move
Indeed, he could lead troops to assault the General Affairs Office, capture the agents of the three chambers of commerce in Shawan Harbor and slaughter them all. Whether the head is hung on the city gate or the body is thrown to the side of the road to dry, it is up to Dane, but the ensuing anger of the three chambers of commerce will soon be too much for Dane.
Of course, the chamber of commerce was nothing more than a chamber of commerce, and it was impossible for the army to come to the city and demand Dane's life. But they must have the strength to completely destroy Shawan Port and Rotten Wolf Town economically, two cities that have risen relying on transportation and commerce, and they will definitely make the business of Dane’s already started Cormyrya transfer station The plan was stillborn.
After listening to what Goodell said, Dane did realize that he might have really oversimplified the situation before.
Those ordinary businessmen in Shawan Port who settled down in this city can really do whatever he wants, including ransacking their families and exterminating their families. But for the three super chambers of commerce that have truly become giants, it would be too naive if Dane just wanted to threaten them with a knife.
He had to adjust his thinking. However, there is no need to tell this guy Goodell how to do it.
Dane said: "Well, okay, I see, you go back first."
Seeing that Dane seems to have listened to his own words, Goodell heaved a sigh of relief, nodded, and planned to leave, but then remembered Hei Jing's matter, and he couldn't help showing a hesitant look on his face again.
Dane knew what this guy was thinking just by looking at the expression on his face.
"Heijing's agent, I can continue to give you..."
As soon as these words came out, Goodell's turbulent mood was completely firmed up. With a look of great joy on his face, he said: "Boss Dane, thank you so much, I will definitely..."
Without speaking, Dane stopped him with a wave of his hand.
"Everyone makes money together, but I have to say some things first."
"You say, you say, if there is anything, I will do it."
"Go back and keep an eye on every move in Shahaiwan Port. If you have anything to do, report to General Verina at any time, especially to keep an eye on the General Affairs Office. I know, you messed up in Shahaiwan Port For decades, there have been some follow-ups, and I don’t need to say a lot of things, you should know what to do.”
Goodell understood that going to work as an undercover agent for Dane at the General Affairs Office in Shawan Harbor was one of the certificates he had to pay. But he didn't hesitate at all, and said directly: "No problem, if there is any news, I will convey it as soon as possible!"
"En." Dane nodded, and said again: "In a few days, I will go to Shahaiwan Port, and you can send a message to the agent of your Shire Chamber of Commerce in Shahaiwan Port. I'll be waiting for him at the guard camp."
