Chapter 44: discuss (1/2)
When the blood port town day was in the fight for gold, a group of people's interests were violated, so they gathered.
Xihai, on an unknown island.
There are no rich products or trees on this small island. The whole is a deserted island, and no one comes here at all.
But today is unusual!
Dozens of boats stayed outside the island, large and small!
There are various flags flying on the boat, it can be seen that these are not all the people!
The center of the island.
Dozens of people gathered in a clearing.
In this group, there are mafia, pirates, kingdom generals, chamber of commerce presidents and so on. The composition is quite complicated!
There are five people sitting in the middle!
And there is only one reason for them to gather together, interest!
”The purpose of everyone gathering here today, presumably, everyone knows it!” It was a man in his thirties with a big back and a smile on his face, wearing a black suit and white shirt.
He is the largest fabric manufacturer in the West Sea, Occam, the president of the Occam Chamber of Commerce!
”Bloodport Town is about to force us to survive.”
”Yes, I didn't even sell a piece of cloth last month.”
”My chamber of commerce is going bankrupt if this continues.”
”I can't even afford to eat!”
...
Occam's words instantly resonated with most of the people present.
”If you have anything, just say it!” An impatient voice rang out. The speaker was about forty years old, sturdy, with a special shotgun hanging around his waist, and one in his face. Middle-aged man with big cigar.
is the patriarch of the Barney family, one of the top mafia families in the West Sea, Barney Mons!
'S main business is relying on the powerful family force to monopolize the production, sales and supply of fabrics and fabric raw materials in nearby countries!
Monopoly has always been the most profitable!
But recently his monopoly has been broken. In these kingdoms, there have been a lot of fabrics that are much lower than his price.
Only then did he discover that Blood Harbor Town is a place where the shipping price is very low.
The shipping price of Blood Harbor Town is even lower than his cost!
The profits made the merchants in the nearby kingdoms completely crazy, and they would never get goods from him again!
He originally wanted to use force to threaten these merchants to get goods from him.
But, he thought about it carefully, and finally gave up this decision. He knew very well the character of businessmen. Even if it was a monopoly in the past, he was only a little higher than the average market price.
The merchants recognized it by pinching their noses, and they should pay him a protection fee!
However, once huge interests are involved, these businessmen are likely to be completely crazy.
If the completely crazy merchants unite, no matter how strong his family is, it will be enough to drink a pot!
After gave up, he thought of a way to re-monopoly.
sells all the raw materials to Blood Harbor Town, and then buys some cheap fabrics from Blood Harbor Town and sells them to the merchants at a higher price. In his opinion, the merchants will be like before, pinch their noses and recognize it!
But this way, his loss will be great!
Once he did this, the machines he used to weave would be completely useless and could only be abandoned there!
Furthermore, he could earn a little bit separately from raw materials, processing and sales. If he did this, he would only be able to earn a little bit from sales in the future, and his profits would suddenly drop by a cliff!
What about the workers who help him spin fabrics and produce raw materials?
Most of these are relatives of his family members!
Various problems followed, making him upset and irritable, so he had the idea of simply solving the people who caused the problem!
”Jie Jie, hurry up!” A slightly nervous voice came out, speaking to a strong man of two meters and three meters tall in leather armor.
His exposed skin is like a crocodile, his teeth look very sharp, his eyes are green vertical pupils, and his face has a hideous scar from his forehead to his chin!
He is Habakar, the captain of the murderous crocodile pirate group, and he is offering a reward of 60 million. This price is considered top in Xihai!
Although it looks like a demon fruit capable person, it is not. Because the appearance and fighting style are like a crocodile, it is nicknamed the murderer!
Different from others, he simply wants to find the trouble of Blood Harbor Town and the entire Kingdom of Saint Martin!
The reason is that the Kingdom of Saint Martin defeated the famous big pirate, the green pepper of the cone!
If he wants to be more famous than the green pepper of the cone, he must defeat the Kingdom of Saint Martin and defeat Shaka!
