Power and Empire Chapter 108: The uninvited guest of Niwa Cheze (3)
"Adults are really rare guests. It is a great honor to be able to meet adults here. Small ones are truly honored!" The old fox guided Si Duhan and the fat man to the corner of the banquet. The expression of surprise immediately turned into flattery, and the fat man did not expect to be. I met this old fox here and nodded slightly, "Why are you here? Isn't this a banquet where southern merchants gather?"
"Hehe, the Nissah family used to be our Hertha's regular customers. This time the establishment of this merchants federation, I also sent me an invitation." Lidastorf has a flattering smile on his face and his eyes are staring. Sidouhan, the chairman of the business alliance in front of him, was talking to the fat man, "This time I can let the adults attend in person, and the Nissah family will be pleasantly surprised!"
People who don’t know will definitely think that the old fox is trying to please Stuhan, and the fat man in ordinary clothes next to him is an ordinary little businessman, so the little businessman with a somewhat speculative face is not in the Japanese car. Rarely, although I don’t know how this guy got into such a high-end banquet, no one will care about this small role anymore. Most people’s eyes are on Stuhan’s body
The president of Rivadin Business Association, the uncrowned king of the entire southern business world, the business alliance under his governance is like a giant, and the tentacles of business reach almost any area of the mainland, from the far south Habs Fort, to the Kujit Palace in the north, countless merchants gathered in Rivadin from all directions. The mountainous goods were sold out in one day, and then the carriages from all over the country filled the warehouse again at night. This kind of business myth is played out over and over again in Jivadin. Everyone is jealous of the good luck of the business alliance. With the local Samorian's mercantile policy, the entire southern business has been brought to an unprecedented era. Of course, it is not convinced. Mostly,
"If I also have such a good opportunity, I will do the whole business better!"
Now there is another big family closely related to the local lord who has come forward. The establishment of the Merchants Federation by the Niss family itself means a bit of breaking up the corners of the business alliance. Many big businessmen are speculating, Nissah There is bound to be a battle between the family’s merchants’ federation and the business alliance, so when everyone heard that the business alliance’s representatives arrived, they couldn’t help but show some hope and concern.
"Who will be the protagonist of this meeting?" Although everyone is still gathered in their own small circle, but their eyes have been paying attention to Stuhan, of course, there are also a few ugly faces staring at the flattering Lida Stoff, secretly yelled "Old Fox!"
"My lord Marquis Nissa is here!"
The graceful aristocratic girl standing at the entrance of the banquet made a clear sign. A middle-aged, luxuriously dressed eagle-nosed nobleman walked in from the entrance of the hall surrounded by several younger generations, and the fat man was in the eagle-nosed nose. I saw an acquaintance behind me, the "silly girl" Nissastani who exchanged 1 million gold coins with a broken knife
"Dear guests, the hall of the Nissan family will be glorious forever because of your presence today"
The Marquis of Nissah glanced at the people in the hall with a smile. The nobleman greeted the big businessmen with a smile. Suddenly, his face became stagnant, as if he had swallowed a big green fly alive. It was originally elegant. The hands trembled slightly because of suppressed indignation, and both eyes stared at the distance like flames
"How did this hillbilly get in!"
Fatty's gray cloth, which is inferior to servants, looks so dazzling in this colorful and gorgeous community, and his impressive speculative face made the Marquis Nissa see him at a glance
"At this moment destined to be written in the family history, how could such a disillusioned guy exist!"
The Marquis of Nissa slightly waved his hand to the younger generations behind him, and immediately several young nobles walked towards the fat man.
"Sorry, please show me your invitation!"
"Oh?" The fat man was also very surprised. Although he knew that the storm would always come, he didn't expect it to be so early. Now there is still a certain distance from the expected climax
"Please show your invitation, or let us throw you out as a dirty pariah!"
Several young nobles saw the fat man look stupid, guessing that this guy must be brought in by a businessman who did not want to offend the Nissah family. In front of the glorious and noble Nissah family, these are only second-rate businessmen. I dare not resist, I can't help but stretch out my hand more arrogantly, ready to catch the fat guy
"Presumptuous!"
The fat man has the **** smell of fighting on the battlefield all the time, and he usually looks like a silly appearance. Once he gets angry, the violent murderous aura will not even dare even a rough person such as Crolitsat. Speaking, not to mention these delicate nobles, who were suddenly frightened by the sudden outburst of fatness
"slap"
The angry fat man slapped the front young nobleman in the face, and slapped the nobleman to the ground. His eyes were white and the corners of his mouth were foaming. He had fainted, and the other people who scared him never dared. Come forward,
"Guard! Guard!"
The Marquis of Nissa turned pale, and pointed to the fat man standing there and said, "Immediately arrest this untouchable man and throw him into the family jail!"
The other businessmen in the hall heard the Marquis of Niss calling the fat man a pariah, and their faces couldn't help showing some indignation, but in front of the Marquis of Niss, they dared not speak.
"Wait! Is this the hospitality of the Nisas family?"
Baron Stouhan, who was next to Fatty, reached out to stop the guards who were about to rush up, and said fiercely, "This Lord Harissa is a distinguished guest of our business alliance. If the Niss family is not welcome, our business alliance will withdraw. This meeting!"
"The show has finally started!" All the businessmen looked at the rivalling Stuhan and Marquis Nissa with a playful smile. They did not expect that this fat man in ordinary clothes would become the two biggest in the southern business world. The fuse of a strong confrontation, the little person in my mind suddenly became the protagonist in the field
or the business alliance was originally planned like this. Using an insignificant little person to provoke the end of the war, it is regrettable to lose, but it does not hurt the business alliance fundamentals, and it can also make the glorious Nissah family lose face. If they win, the Nissan family will be ashamed and lost this time.
For such a delicate "win-win" plan, other business family representatives had to take a look at Stewart Henkel. It is easy to bring in small people, but it may be necessary to calculate that small people will become a weakness of the Nissah family. It’s no wonder that such a character can create a monster like a business alliance. If they know that the insignificant little figure in their eyes is the master of all this, they don’t know what kind of expression it will be.
Seeing Stuhan appear, the face of the Marquis Nissa is like a changing colorful vase, red and blue are mixed together. Regarding Stuhan's shot, the Marquis of Nissar has long been prepared for it, but he did not expect that the commercial alliance's shot would be like this. Quick, so accurate, just like the violent slap of the fat man just now, slapped the Nissah family on the face, and the Nissah family was stunned and embarrassed for a while
"You all go down, since you are the honorable guest of President Stuhan, then forget it this time!"
The Marquis of Nissah is an old man after all. Knowing that this matter is true, it will only make the face of the Nissah family more dull, so he has to swallow this sullen breath and poses to the guards who appear at the door. Waving his hand, there is still a bit of unwilling ridicule in his mouth
"But such a rude person can become a distinguished guest of Jivadin, and the business alliance of Jivadin is really degenerate!"
"The business alliance is a merchant organization, no matter what his background, no matter what kind of goods he sells, whether he is a noble noble or a humble businessman, in the eyes of our business alliance, he is the same!" Si Doohan doesn't care about the cynicism of the Marquis of Nissa, with a charming smile on his face
"As long as he is a businessman, as long as he is beneficial to our businessman, he can become a distinguished guest of our business alliance, whether it is everyone present or the noble Marquis of Nissa, as long as we come to Rivadin, we will all be like other distinguished guests Treated!"
The sense of equality revealed in the words of Baron Duhan made other business representatives present in the meeting brighten up. In this era of the rule of the lord and nobility, no matter how prominent the merchant family is, it is only a second-rate family, in the eyes of the lord and nobility. Li is the object of arbitrary oppression and humiliation. This rare equality and respect is like a muffled thunder, which shocked the hearts of representatives of other families.
"Compared with the arrogant Nissa family in front of you, even fools can feel that the Zivadin Business Alliance is their most suitable partner!"
"Chairman Duhan said so well, let us have a toast to the generosity of Chairman Duhan!"
Lidastorf raised the wine glass in his hand in a timely manner and cheered. Most of the business representatives in the field raised their wine glasses to congratulate, and a small number of people stared at the red-faced Marquis Nissah. This is obviously this time. A helper invited by the Nisha family.
"Okay! Very good!" The Marquis of Nissah flushed, but he couldn't break out. He had to suppress the anger in his heart and raised his glass like everyone else. "Damn Stuhan, let's wait and see ! There will be times when you cry later!"
The confrontation before the meeting made the participating business representatives already smell a strong smell of fire, and the tense depressive atmosphere finally broke out on the second topic of the meeting.
"Our Nissah family proposes to form the entire southern business family into a merchant federation." The Marquis Nissah waved the documents in his hand with excitement. "The Dardanelles of Zhiva Chaze have approved our internal low-price transactions. , To increase the price uniformly to the outside world, I believe this powerful business organization with the support of the local lord~IndoMTL.com~ can maximize our interests and let you get endless gold coins"
"No idea, what a ridiculous suggestion!" The fat man sitting at the end of the seat muttered annoyedly. His voice was very low, but it happened during the quiet period just after the words of the Marquis of Nissah. , Dozens of business representatives on both sides of the long table heard clearly
The enchanting young woman in red heard the fat man’s funny muttering, and she laughed out loud. The charming and pretty face caused several nearby representatives to look in a trance, and some other representatives also showed weird and funny expressions. Obviously, I wanted to laugh but didn't dare to laugh out loud. The seriousness of the Marquis of Nissa's speech just now disappeared after being upset by the fat man.
"Representative Harissa, please pay attention to your words! This is the hall of the noble Nissan family mansion." The leader standing next to the Marquis Nissa, the graceful girl sternly reprimanded, "If it wasn't for the Lord Marquis Forgiveness, rude people like you have been expelled a long time ago"
"What! Is it true that you will be driven out if you tell the truth?" The fat man blinked his eyes aggrievedly. "The internal price reduction was originally a whimsical absurdity. We kept the internal price down, but the lord masters on the road Will we also lower the checkpoint tax? We should collect a lot of money. The cost of transporting the goods all the way to Riva is already ridiculously high. Now we raise the price by another level, who will buy our products? If the goods cannot be sold, what is the effect of our internal price reduction? It is simply deceiving ourselves! You think this is Samor who does not need tariffs."
"You, you!" The girl behind the Marquis of Niss was flushed with the excitement of the fat man's words, and it also attracted the whispers of all business representatives. For a while, the whole hall was like a sky full of flies.
