Heart of Empire

Chapter 65: trading

Views:

The Shire must be a lush place. Hardworking halflings, clever gnomes and elegant elves built this place very peacefully. Mechanical products, tobacco, and tea from the Shire are all very popular. At the same time, Shire is also one of the world's important granaries, and it is an out-and-out grain production center.

The Shire United Chamber of Commerce, as the name suggests, is a chamber of commerce established by almost all merchants in the Shire Continent. Almost every businessman who comes out of Shire to do business belongs to this chamber of commerce. Their organizational structure is not very strict, and there is no special binding force on the merchants under their command, but once something happens, the combined strength of many merchants is enough to give any enemy who wants to bully them a headache. Even fear.

Dane has great expectations for this business alliance. On the one hand, the reputation of this business alliance has always been very good, unlike some bastard chambers of commerce, which are full of bad records. On the other hand, they are backed by the rich Shire subcontinent, which is a good boost.

In addition, there is another very important point, that is, Dane squatted on the nautical map before and carefully studied various waterways. He found that, although the location of Comilla Island was nonsense, it was not on any of the main shipping routes. But in fact, if a trade ship is willing to take a long detour, starting from Shahai Harbor, sailing southeast for one week to Comilla for a replenishment, turning to the west and walking for another two weeks, you can also reach Xia you. Although, the journey is almost a full week away from the Port of Tarens in the Principality of Florence, but what if Comilla's own development has developed and it has a certain trade value

Dane himself had made an idea to make Comilla a place with its own special products, attract caravans, let the caravans from the mainland carry the supplies needed on the island, transport them to Comilla for sale, and then sell them from New goods were loaded on Comilla Island and shipped to the Shire mainland, and the return journey took the same route. In this way, a very good development route can be formed.

Of course, this idea is very good, but then again, how to make Cormyrya a place that can attract caravans to take the initiative to come is not something that can be done casually. Fortunately, Dane now has an opportunity like Hei Jing, at least it is possible to do it. Regardless of whether it is the mainland or Shire, the demand for this magic mineral will definitely not be small.

A whole week of sailing passed by in a hurry, and Dane finally saw the mainland again after a few months. This even made him feel like tears filled his eyes. Sure enough, he still prefers the mainland, and he prefers to gallop on this vast and boundless land.

The Long Sail slowly entered the port, and after disembarking, Dane took the people away first, leaving Hull and a few mercenaries to handle the ship's docking procedures.

This time, there were forty or fifty people who came with Dane. Among them, there are three whole teams of sword dancers and one team of human mercenaries. Walking on the street of Shahai Harbor, there are dozens of people acting as bodyguards behind, and the ostentation is quite big.

However, Dane is here to do business, not to show off. He asked Delin to take his men to go to places like Bay Harbor's bar to play on his own, while he took a few sword dancers and went directly to Goodell.

This halfling businessman has his own shop in Shahai Harbor, where he mainly sells various Shire specialties. When Dane arrived at the door of his shop with a few of his men, he was taken aback by the crowd at the door.

Dane and Goodell have known each other for a long time, and they can be regarded as friends. He knew that Goodell's grocery store named 'Youhuo' had a pretty good business, but it definitely wasn't as hot as he had seen.

Out of curiosity, Dane grabbed a person next to him and asked, "My friend, why is this store so popular? Is there any special product for sale?"

The man sized Dane up and said, "Have you not been to Shahai Harbor for a while?"

Dane raised his eyebrows and said, "Yeah, is there something important going on during this time?"

"You don't know this, it's not a big deal, but this grocery store got a batch of precious magic minerals called black crystals for some reason, and they sold very well. No, everyone rushed to grab it As for the goods, I'm afraid that others will get there first."

Dane couldn't help but put a smile on his face, it turned out that it was thanks to him. He knew that as long as things like magic minerals appeared on the market, they would definitely be looted. There was no other reason. The output of such minerals in the world was too small. Occasionally, when explorers find a mine vein, most of them will be directly acquired by some powerful forces in various ways. The things produced are usually used by themselves, or bartered, and can flow to the market. That's very rare, which further stimulates the demand for magic minerals in the market.

This must be a good thing for Dane. Although, the best way to use magic minerals is of course to make them into various finished products and then sell them, which will add more value. But after all, in Dane's territory, there is still a lack of ways to create magic props, and he will face a huge funding gap right now, so he has to sell raw materials in exchange for money.

As for the future, after the development of the territory, this trade method of directly selling raw materials must be changed, and it must be transformed into a model of processing and selling finished products.

As far as Hei Jing's market is so hot at present, it must be quite good news for him. The better Hei Jing sells, the one who will benefit in the end is not himself

Seeing the current scene, Noah next to him popped up and said: "Boss, tell me, these black crystals are selling so well, we can't let that guy Goodell take all the bargains, no matter how you say it." We need to raise the price a bit.”

Dane glanced at him, patted his head resentfully, and said, "Young man, the thoughts in his head are still immature."

Noah touched the place where he was hit by Dane, but he didn't understand where he was immature.

Dane said: "How can you raise the price just because the market is good? It's unreliable to do business like this. If you let others know, you can't say that I, Dane, are immoral? In the future, when we do business with Goodell, just Don’t say that the price is not the price, we are all good friends, if we have money to earn together, we may cheat our friends!”

Noah looked at the smile on Dane's face, and couldn't connect the treacherous smile on his boss's face with the righteous words in his mouth.
