She Is Not a Witch Chapter 166: ‘Black Rabbit’ Chamber of Commerce
"Hi Mr. Currea..."
Under the introduction of the maid beside him, Lorraine Hill greeted the masters of these chambers of commerce one by one.
After exchanging pleasantries, the girl finally got to know all the people present. Among them, people from four large chambers of commerce and seven medium-sized chambers of commerce came to the banquet.
Sitting at the top of the long table, Lorraine Hill patted his palms, and then the maids brought up the prepared fruits, food and so on.
Because the main purpose is not to eat, most of them are snacks and light fruits.
After another polite conversation, the topic finally came into contact with today's theme.
"About the chamber of commerce behind you, can Miss Mesia briefly disclose?"
Finally, someone asked curiously.
"Our chamber of commerce comes from the remote southern archipelago. Since it has not been established for a long time, it is normal that everyone does not know about it."
...
"In terms of name, everyone can call us 'Black Rabbit'." Because the goods mainly come from the Rabbit Ear tribe in the Tisilan Mountains, Lorraine Hill took this name.
"'Black Rabbit'? It sounds like a fairy tale, and it really arouses infinite reverie." The presidents of several large chambers of commerce were thoughtful.
This kind of name has a very casual feeling, but after getting familiar with it, there will be a magical and magical style in it, which is also very consistent with the goods they sell.
It seems like a fantastic product from a fairy tale wonderland.
Nodding slowly, expressing their approval of the name for the time being, these people began to ask about various details of Lorraine Hill, such as the specific output in a year, processing time, transportation costs, wear and tear, whether there is a return service, and how is the quality? Guarantee, deposit, payment settlement cycle, and a series of issues.
It's not that he deliberately made things difficult for this charming girl, but that it has become a professional instinct for a businessman to understand information and check the authenticity.
Fortunately, Lorraine Hill was prepared for these issues before coming here, and she was indeed the eldest lady of the chamber of commerce, so she knew it well, and when she explained it, she was impeccable, which dissuaded many people. doubts.
It's not that I haven't encountered such a liar before, but a liar is a liar after all. He has never really run a business, and some details will always show his flaws.
After confirming that there is a corresponding chamber of commerce and industry behind this girl, the expressions of these people gradually eased, and some conditions were relaxed.
"If Miss Mecia agrees, then we are willing to pay 1,000 extraordinary gold coins to obtain 8 standard goods."
The so-called standard cargo refers to the agreement just made, with a width of 2.1 meters and a length of 36.6 meters as a horse. Its quality is at least excellent silver level. If it is better, the price can be increased appropriately, and the price will increase by 15% for each liter. The price of the rare silver grade will be 15% more expensive than the former.
"Yes, and for the first transaction, I don't need to charge a deposit. But in the future, at least a 20% deposit must be paid, because the production process of moonlight cloth is lengthy, and we also need to resist risks." Lorraine Hill Blinking eyes, talking about relatively harsh conditions.
Actually, it's not that I'm short of money, I just want to take advantage of this contest to make a selection, because I sell to anyone, so why not find a better customer.
As for the price increase, it is not needed for the time being, it will be done later when it becomes popular or the market responds better.
Several businessmen present looked at each other and nodded to express their acquiescence. The harsh conditions that Lorraine Hill considered were nothing to them. If the other party did not mention anything, being too 'kind' would cause them uneasy.
Where would there be a businessman doing a loss-making business? If it is so favorable and kind, I am afraid that there are some ulterior motives. As for the high price, the other party will make more money. This is a trivial matter. Everyone has worked it out step by step in this way. In the future, there will be opportunities to find out the bottom line of each other's prices and production conditions.
After having a beginning, several other chambers of commerce also determined the quantity they needed and signed corresponding contracts.
After finishing these, the banquet entered a relatively relaxed second half.
"Miss Mesia, have you ever been to the Empire before? You seem to know a lot about things?" A businessman asked curiously.
"I have visited with my classmates before, but I haven't lived here for a long time, so I understand part of the situation."
"Oh, that's it. It seems that Miss Mesia should be very knowledgeable, and I always feel that you have that poetic temperament when you speak." Another person also praised with a smile.
The interest of these people has gradually shifted from the commercial goods just now to this lovely and charming girl.
"Are you taking over from your parents to manage the Chamber of Commerce now?"
....
"May I take the liberty to ask if you are married?"
....
"Actually, I have a nephew who has just graduated from Emenas, who is about the same age as you."
....
"The empire is not stable now. If Miss Mesia lacks guards and the like, we can provide some help."
....
"The Baska family? This topic should be treated with caution. In fact, the rise of our Blue Shirt Province was even earlier than the country of Oz, and we have always been the Baska family that replaced the country of Oz. Stay away." After drinking some wine, several businessmen were a little drunk and began to talk about some past events.
....
"Because of the exquisite clothing, we can always deal with those noble families, so we also maintain a certain degree of independence at the foot of the red dragon, so that we will not be annexed."
....
"In the eyes of some great nobles, the Baskar family is actually very young."
....
"The Salius family in the west, the Griffin Principality even competed with the Cangmoon Kingdom for the fertile Gaudan Plain."
.....
"The unicorn family, that is, the ancestor of the Landsworth family is really a poet. His moving voice and appearance moved the beautiful elves and won the favor of the unicorns in the forest. With the help of friends, the initial territory was established, which is the luckiest of the four dukes."
"In ancient fairy tales, unicorns are synonymous with luck."
....
"We don't know much about the Trey family. These northern jackdaws are naturally indifferent and indifferent. They are the kind of existence that will be absent from the banquet, and they rarely participate in the court communication of the empire."
....
"Lurna country? This is familiar, because in the southern border, in the past, if you want to attack, you must fight with Luerna, but after the Frost Alliance was shattered, many mages were recruited, and now some of the spinning machines are them. Improved."
....
"Actually, we don't hate new technology, because it can greatly reduce costs, and we also like those mages who have created new industries that can lay golden eggs."
"It's just that because of the empire's system, we are doomed to be speechless. If we develop too prosperously, we may become fat in the eyes of some big nobles."
...
"You can make some small boutiques, such as luxury goods, to serve those big people and the like. But if it is popular, it is best not to try this kind of thing."
"It will make your situation extremely dangerous."
....
"Ahaha, you don't have to worry about Miss Mesia... You are such a high-quality supplier, and everyone likes it."
....
"If you run into a little trouble, we can help you with a little accommodation."
....
After talking, Lorraine Hill also slowly sketched out the general ideas and pursuits of these businessmen in his mind.
People's pursuit is to be promoted slowly. After owning a certain amount of assets, they will inevitably seek a certain social status and the right to speak politically. Location.
It's no wonder that they are huddling together to keep warm, otherwise the chamber of commerce with a lot of wealth will become any cash machine for the nobles.
So can a group like ~IndoMTL.com~ be a partner?
As the oppressed of the current imperial system, they do have the need and intention to resist, and temporarily share a common purpose.
But as businessmen, they are inherently unstable and easily influenced and swayed.
However, just like a sword, whether it is good or bad depends on whose hands it is held in. In the future world, commercial trade is an indispensable thing, which is also the inevitable demand of the development of the times .
Winning is still necessary, but various preparations must be made in advance, such as a sound system, as well as corresponding state agencies, organizations, etc., to resist the infinite expansion of such groups.
"It feels so troublesome."
After the banquet, Lorraine Hill rolled on the big soft bed, talking about his tiredness.
However, our original style always has various means to achieve our wishes.
