Chapter 2523: Money never sleeps! (2/2)
The battleship paintings of the Ten Thousand Worlds Business Alliance are relatively simple. They are only surrounded by a circle of shining stars outside the empire’s three-star blitz emblem. No, not stars, but eighteen shiny gold coins—— The Eighteenth Money Lightning Emblem, this is the latest symbol of the Ten Thousand Worlds Business Alliance, and it also represents the ”Dao Xin” of the Ten Thousand Worlds Business Alliance, to change the empire with money!
Once bitten by a snake, I was afraid of well ropes for ten years. Only half a day ago, I was almost ”killed” by the hunting ships of the four major families. At this moment, I saw the patrol boats of the Ten Thousand Realms Commercial Alliance flying up, especially patrols. Everyone couldn't help but feel a little hairy in the turret of the boats and swords.
Especially on the Little Bear, the crew from the distant South Spirit Star came to the Seven Seas Market for the first time. They didn’t know what kind of behemoth they were facing, each with a fast heartbeat, dry mouth and palms. It's all sweat.
However, in the next second, the huge light curtain shot by the two patrol boats at them made everyone breathe a sigh of relief, and finally showed a smile after the disaster.
Two lines of words are written right on the huge light curtain: ”Welcome to the Seven Seas Market, the most free place in the universe!”
...
From the edge of the Seven Seas Star Territory to the Seven Seas Big Market, a whole day of inspection, guidance, and diversion are required.
After all, it is a state of war, and a **** battle is coming. It is already very open and efficient to be able to enter the Seven Seas Big Market and free trade in just one day.
”The freest place in the universe...”
Li Yao and Li Jialing Zhuo stood in the aft deck of the Little Bear. Huo Dongling specially cleaned them up and gave them to them. They were surrounded by black ore, which was the most convenient for the two of them to gossip.
Li Yao holding a glass of iced juice, looking at the ocean of light made up of thousands of merchant ships outside the porthole, smiled slightly, ”Isn’t it the “freest”, but this is definitely one of the richest places in the empire. In terms of the degree of activity of money, it even surpasses the imperial capital and the capitals of the four major families!”
”I've heard that the Seven Seas Market also has a name called'The City That Never Sleeps'. It doesn't mean that people don't sleep, but the meaning of money never sleeps here.'Money never sleeps' is the slogan here.”
Li Jialing also exclaimed, ”The name Li Lingfeng told me. He once described to me that the prosperous businessmen here used all kinds of money-gathering methods, which left me an extremely deep impression-but really came here. Only here did I know that Li Lingfeng’s description back then was far less than one-tenth of the real prosperity here. I really don’t know what kind of tricks the profiteers of the Ten Thousand Realms Merchant League had changed to move this piece away from the center of the Xinghai Sea. The outer star regions of the land have been built to such a prosperous and developed appearance!”
Li Yao said, ”Oh, did Li Lingfeng mention this too?”
”Yes, Li Lingfeng once told me that if he becomes the head of the Li family, the first thing he does is to attack the Seven Seas Market and take this market as his own!”
Li Jialing used depilatory cream and a razor to shed and shave the whole body hair, and then dye all the short hairs black. It was no longer the majestic and magnificent of a golden lion, but it was a bit more sly and ferocious as a black panther. He swallowed. Saliva, a touch of greed and vigilance flashed across his eyes, and he muttered, ”At that time, I didn't understand how Li Lingfeng's dignified'future emperor elect' would **** food from a merchant's bowl. Today I see the mighty and mighty place here. The caravan tide of the city, but even I am a little tempted.”
”Li Lingfeng was able to realize the importance of the Ten Thousand Realms Business Alliance and the Seven Seas Big Market before the reformists surfaced, and his eyes were so bright that he deserved to be the first candidate of the Li family of the'future emperor', and he died so unclearly. It's not white, it's a pity.”
Li Yao's eyes gradually sharpened, and said, ”It's just that he still hasn't told you all the truth, or that, with his status and natural position, he can't understand the true source of power of the Ten Thousand Realms Commercial League. ——Money never sleeps. These five words are really brilliant. The rise of the Ten Thousand Realms Business Alliance is the rise of the power of money. Can the mere two words of'profite business' explain it?”
Li Jialing squinted his eyes, looked at his fist lingering Jin Yan, and asked: ”I don't understand, no matter how powerful money is, don't you still have to surrender to absolute violence, Brother Yao, just rich and rich? What's the use, it is worthy of Li Lingfeng, you and everyone in the four major families are paying so much attention to it, even regardless of the ownership of the imperial capital, do you have to fight for the Seven Seas Market first?”
”Money is of course not everything, but no money is absolutely impossible!”
Li Yao looked at Li Jialing's fist and said, ”Of course absolute violence is very powerful, but it's so poor that you can't afford half a steamed bun, so where can you get'absolute violence'?”
”In the remote areas of the ancient world, if you use brute force or luck to dig out the secret treasures of the ancient times from a certain ancient tomb, you may be able to master'absolute violence', but with the development of human civilization, the so-called ' Violence is becoming more and more organized, systematized, and large-scale industrialization. It must be supported by a steady stream of resources. For individuals, it is no longer possible for an individual to jump off a cliff to achieve great success, and to pick up an ancient treasure. A good thing in the world.
”Whether violence brings money or money nurtures violence? This is the question of whether the chicken comes first or the egg comes first. It has no practical meaning. Money and violence are two sides of the same coin. They complement each other and support each other.
”It's a pity that if one of the big trees grows side by side, if one is too lush, it will also take away the nutrients of the other. If the violence is too strong, it will ignore and even despise the importance of money, causing irreversible decline— -This is what happened in the empire in the past hundreds of years, and it is also the root of the Ten Thousand Realms Business League.”
