"The Uriah Chamber of Commerce sent 10 squares of streamer peridot."

Following the voice of the maid next to him, several guards opened 10 well-packed large wooden boxes, and the neatly cut boulders appeared in front of everyone. , which is a natural extraordinary thing, can be used to make extraordinary props, or as a top decorative building material. And so large and complete, it is also very rare on the mainland.

The staff of the Karites Chamber of Commerce looked at this beautiful square boulder with expressions of joy and envy, but Roland Hill looked at it with a faint headache, but it was not over yet, and the maid next to him continued to read out the list in his hand.

"The Aroni Chamber of Commerce has sent a full set of deluxe hardcover editions of "Poems of the Kingfisher."

After speaking, another box was opened. Inside were 7 thick books in hardcover. The bookcase was wrapped in gray Mochizuki rhino leather. The pages inside were light green, and there were faint veins of leaves. It was very beautiful. It is a leaf vein paper unique to the Aroni Chamber of Commerce. The black text in the book is elegant and clear, and each page is accompanied by beautiful drawings. In this way, books made with extraordinary craftsmanship are not afraid of oil stains, water immersion, and ordinary flames cannot be ignited. They will not be deformed or faded if stored for decades. They are often used as heirlooms of large noble families.

Some of the maids heard the "Poem of the Kingfisher" and began to chat in a low voice, and some even wanted to open it. "The Poem of the Kingfisher" was a book written by seven well-known poets nearly a hundred years ago. It recorded various parts of the mainland. The folk stories and legends are very famous.

Loren Hill also liked these books, but this made her embarrassed again.

"The Lamia Chamber of Commerce has sent an extraordinary snow suede winter skirt."

The maids opened a hard-covered wooden box, which contained an ice-blue winter dress, Roland Hill blinked, and the information emerged in his consciousness.

Snow suede winter skirt (evaluation: rare gold level): It is made of the fur of the golden winter white bear and the moiré cloth. There are 5 layers of enchantments inside, which are respectively the heat insulation deflection position, the wind and the cold current and the tough fiber, which can isolate The cold and heat maintain a constant temperature, deflect the thrown objects and weak attacks, stabilize the airflow around them, reduce the wind speed, and give the wearer a certain cooling capacity, which can freeze items. The tough fibers greatly enhance the defense of this clothing.

Looking at the dazzling special effects, the girl thought, this is probably the most precious gift I received today.

The new owner of the Karites Chamber of Commerce appeared in front of the public, causing a huge sensation at the Nissos family banquet. The guests present spread the word about her beauty. Coupled with the current civil war in the West Wind, the demand for sea ships has risen sharply. The other chambers of commerce in Vilgar began to send people to befriend Karites, hoping to gain the friendship of this new master.

Loren Hill sat in the seat and asked his subordinates to store these gifts in the mansion's warehouse for safekeeping and make records.

It is not uncommon for the leaders of the chamber of commerce to give gifts, but they are often not so valuable. They are asking Carites, hoping to get a larger share of the next batch of new ships. Even if they can’t get it, they can entrust them The Carrites Chamber of Commerce's fleet helped with the delivery.

The girl listened to the introduction from the head maid Chelsea.

"The Uriah Chamber of Commerce mainly deals in stone materials and buildings. Many castles, temples and well-known buildings in the Seven Kingdoms of Xuehua are built by them."

"The Aroni Chamber of Commerce focused on books and papermaking in its early years, and now it is involved in operas and concerts."

"The Lamia Chamber of Commerce is mainly engaged in animal husbandry, and is famous for bacon, cashmere, leather, and fur."

"Many of the raw materials for these companies are produced in Xifeng. Now many roads in Xifeng have begun to be blocked. They are eager to find a ship to bring the goods back by sea."

"But we have a limited number of ships." The girl was a little distressed. Looking at the data compiled by shipyards in various places in the past two days, even if the construction was fully started, there would be a maximum of 25-30 ships in the past two months, and only 3-4 ships would be satisfied. After all, building a ship is not about making dumplings, it still takes a lot of time.

Before today's three, representatives of 7 chambers of commerce had already visited. In addition to the representatives of the Meter Chamber of Commerce and the Rhea Chamber of Commerce who will arrive tomorrow, a total of 12 large chambers of commerce have made requests. These large chambers of commerce are not weak, and it is not good to offend any of them.

Some time ago, Lorraine Hill also thought about making huge improvements in the cotton spinning industry, getting out a new type of loom, and greatly increasing production to make money. I don't think it's better than people. Maybe the gods think it's too slow. They immediately smashed a cake and almost choked her. Each big ship can sell thousands of extraordinary gold coins. The premium given by these chambers of commerce is almost the same as before. 2-3 times the price.

"Chelsea, does Verga have no other shipbuilding chambers besides us?"

The head maid added some hot tea to the girl's cup. The weather has turned cold recently. She thought for a while before answering.

"Yes, the Dayas family also has a lot of shipyards. They are old-fashioned chambers of commerce in Verga. They were the first to do tung oil business, and later applied to shipbuilding. The seal and waterproofness are very good, so their shipbuilding industry was once famous in the southern part of the mainland."

"Ah? Then how did we get up." The girl held the teacup in her palm, feeling its warmth, and asked a little curiously.

"Haha, this has to be said to be Angus' good luck." The head maid smiled.

"Mr. Angus once rescued an oriental man who fell into the water. He escaped from the Plantagenet Dynasty. It is said that he was a small local nobleman. Because of the failure of the court party, he was afraid of being destroyed, so he took his family abroad. ."

"After saving him, he later helped him find his separate family, so out of gratitude, he passed on the shipbuilding craftsmanship that he had handed down to our chamber of commerce, which combined the advanced shipbuilding technology of the Eastern Continent and the level of our Carrites. It surpassed Dayas at once, and from then on, Karites began to focus on shipbuilding."

"Is that Oriental family still there now?"

"He's still there. He is currently living in seclusion in Haiya Harbor. The nephew of that Oriental is also the leader of the 'Trade Wind' fleet. You can see him later."

"Okay." Lorraine Hill still met the leaders of the three fleets when she first arrived in Hopelander, but unfortunately there were too many people at that time, and she simply wrote down their appearances. After that, the three leaders left with the task. Not too familiar and acquainted.

After receiving some congratulatory representatives from the small chambers of commerce, after Loren Hill finished lunch, the time came to the afternoon. All the high-level executives of the Karites Chamber of Commerce were about to gather again, and there were already 300 seats in the spacious conference hall. , in the middle is a large round table, and below it are rows of fan-shaped seats and tables.

The dome of the hall is very high, about 5-6 stories high. There are luxurious chandeliers hanging on the dome. Sixteen tall weighing columns are arranged on the stone walls on the side, and the load-bearing columns are more than 6 meters high. large vertical windows with clear glass.

The sunlight from the outside came in and shone into the temporarily quiet and uninhabited hall. On the huge curtain wall behind the round table in the middle, there was a huge drawing of a lacquer night flower. The black petals were in full bloom, and the center was the enchanting dark purple stamen. Half in shadow and half in sunlight, this huge lacquer night flower exhibits a strange charm.
