Chapter 15 Invest in Orcs

Seeing President Cruise walk away with a thoughtful look on his face, Delier couldn't help but ask Xu Yi, "President Xu, didn't you say that for a businessman, the most important thing is profit? But according to what you just described, this new profit growth point can bring great benefits, why did you give it to the Amley Chamber of Commerce?"

"Not completely." Xu Yi replied with a smile. "You should hear that this new profit growth point is actually very beneficial to both the Amli Chamber of Commerce and our new flight chamber of commerce. If the two sides cooperate and the effect is good enough, it will be a win-win outcome. Although it may be Amli in the calculation. The chamber of commerce is more profitable, but our new flying chamber of commerce has no foundation in the construction industry. If we want to do everything by ourselves, it may not be successful, and we must spend a lot of time and energy. For me, the most important thing is It is precisely these two things that are missing.”

De Lier was silent for a moment, and suddenly said: "No wonder the elders are worried about your lifespan. President Xu, it would be great if you could have a lifespan of hundreds of years like our elves."

Xu Yi laughed and said, "I am a human being, and I have to accept the lifespan limit of human beings. For me, it is enough to contribute to what I want to do in my limited life. Now, it's not that I have no chance to become a magus or even a great magus, am I?"

Derek was silent.

"Okay, since we know that life is short and time is precious, let's not waste time here, come with me."

Xu Yi beckoned to Delier and led him to the presidents of other major chambers of commerce in the banquet hall.

The reason why I brought De Lier this time. I just wanted her to take advantage of this banquet to get to know the presidents of the major chambers of commerce in Bangta City. Looking for opportunities to cooperate with other major chambers of commerce.

With Xu Yi's face and curiosity about the elves. The presidents of other chambers of commerce naturally would not refuse to talk to Delier.

But after the initial nervousness and discomfort, De Lier quickly got used to talking with everyone.

Although she still can't speak as smooth and sophisticated as an ordinary human businessman, but given her elven identity, her reaction is easier to gain the trust of the other party.

So just after a few short conversations, several presidents of chambers of commerce expressed their intention to cooperate with Yege Plastic Processing Factory.

Of course, these chambers of commerce do, like Sister Cesara, have a demand for plastic products.

They guarantee that as long as Delier can come up with qualified plastic products. Then they will definitely place an order with Yege Plastic Processing Factory through Delier.

Seeing that De Lier was gradually getting used to the atmosphere of this occasion, Xu Yi stepped aside and let her face it alone.

President Vincent of the Armani Chamber of Commerce, who had been waiting for a long time, came over immediately.

As soon as Xu Yi saw him, he immediately asked him with a smile: "Hey, President Vincent, I heard that you conducted an investigation on the Black Rice Wasteland for more than two months. What was the result?"

Hearing this question, President Vincent's expression was a little weird: "I don't know if it's good or bad. The good news is that the orcs in the Black Rice Wasteland really don't have the ability to make clothes, and they don't have the ability to wear clothes on us humans. The fabrics and clothing are very popular, so theoretically, the market is very broad.”

"And the bad news?"

"The bad news is that all the orcs in the Black Rice Wasteland are very poor. For them, even if they can use a few resources to exchange things from us humans, the priority is the most needed necessities such as salt. As for clothing... I have visited many orc tribes and found that many orc tribes don't care if they wear clothes or not, and I have even seen at least a dozen orc tribes in all orc tribes who are naked and have nothing to do with beasts. the difference."

Seeing the wry smile on President Vincent's face, Xu Yi smiled and said: "This reminds me of a joke circulating in our hometown. A shoe-making chamber of commerce sent two salesmen to the orc tribe to investigate. One of the salesmen was very frustrated after the inspection and came back to report that the orcs didn't wear shoes at all. Another salesman was overjoyed after the inspection and came back and reported that it was great! Those orcs don't have shoes. Put on!"

President Vincent laughed: "President Xu, are you mocking my indecisive mentality?"

"I'm just reminding you. You can create something like a market that doesn't exist before. For example, don't you see the werewolves of the Woller Werewolf Tribe already wearing clothes?" Xu Yi said.

"Yes. Orcs who didn't wear clothes before, we can make them wear clothes. But how to make them have the conditions to wear clothes, this is a problem." President Vincent frowned and pondered.

"To give you a hint, our New Flying Chamber of Commerce expects to invest in the construction of a household magic machinery assembly factory near the Woller Werewolf Tribe within this year, which is specially used to complete the assembly of household magic machinery." Xu Yidao.

President Vincent was stunned: "Why? If the assembly work is completed, shouldn't it be built in the Falling Rain Valley? In any respect, this is much more convenient than the Black Rice Wasteland. Safer?"

"The key point is the cost." Xu Yi explained. "Speaking of the Black Rice Wasteland, everyone may think it is far away, but if you actually compare it on the map, you will find that the Black Rice Wasteland is actually closer to the middle and north of the kingdom than Bangta City, and even the northernmost is directly connected to The kingdom of Sark is bordered by a border. In addition to the flat terrain, if a road is built, it will actually be closer to the north-central part of the kingdom than from Bangta City.”

"You mean, relying on this to save transportation costs? But I still think it's unsafe to build a factory in a site controlled by orcs like the Black Rice Wasteland." President Vincent shook his head and said.

"Then, do you think that the mine near the Woller Werewolf tribe by our three chambers of commerce and the non-ferrous metal smelting factory in the newly built city of our chamber of commerce are safe?" Xu Yi asked.

"It's also unsafe, otherwise, your three chambers of commerce wouldn't have stationed so many guards in the mine."

"It's only now. Wait a while. You'll find out. It's actually pretty safe there. If someone were to attack the mine and that non-ferrous metal smelting plant. I'm sure the werewolves of the Worrall tribe and a few orc tribes around them. The orcs of ours even reacted more violently than us." Xu Yi smiled.

"Why?" President Vincent was stunned.

"Because now in that mine and factory, our three chambers of commerce employ a lot of Orcs from the Volar werewolf tribe and several surrounding orc tribes as workers. If the mine and factory are attacked and they cannot work, then It will affect their salary. Do you think... I can finally get a fixed salary every month, and rely on this salary to buy anything from our Human Chamber of Commerce, and live the life they dreamed of before in these few months. Orcs, would they be willing to let this life be destroyed?"

Seeing the slightly weird smile on Xu Yi's face. President Vincent couldn't help but stay for a while and asked, "President Xu, isn't this what you planned from the beginning?"

Xu Yi smiled but did not answer.

President Vincent pondered for a while, and let out a long breath.

"I think I see what you mean. Let these orcs get a stable salary through a stable job, and then live a stable life, they naturally don't want to go back to the hard life they used to be. But in this way, it is It is equivalent to obliterating the wildness of these orcs and taming them. And this can also make these orcs gradually have the economic strength to buy some things other than the necessities of life, for example, the clothes produced by our Armani Chamber of Commerce ?"

Xu Yi nodded with a smile: "Yes. President Vincent. Now you know why I say that the market can be created by yourself? According to my idea, these orcs will not only wear clothes in the future. Even every orc family will have to wear clothes. We must use the magic machinery of our Xinfei Chamber of Commerce. It is said that there are more than half a million orcs in the Black Rice Wasteland, which is a huge market equivalent to several Bangta cities.”

President Vincent couldn't help shaking his head and said with admiration: "President Xu, I have to say, you think too far. Orcs are not much different from beasts now, but you think that in the future you will make They also use those magic machines that are very high-end even for us humans. I really don't know if your ideas are too advanced or too crazy..."

"Haha, sometimes thinking too far ahead is no different from a lunatic." Xu Yi laughed: "Will I be regarded as a prophet or a lunatic, the point is whether this thing will succeed in the end. So Vincent will Chang, even if you don't come looking for me, I'll still look for you. How about it? Are you interested in investing and building a few cotton knitting mills on the black rice wasteland like me? I assure you, in fact, on the black rice wasteland Investment can save a lot of money. In addition to transportation costs, the human cost savings is even greater.”

"Oh? How to say?" President Vincent asked curiously, obviously a little tempted.

"Do you know how much we pay the beast workers in the mine a month?" Xu Yi asked.

"According to what you mean, it should be lower than the wages of the workers in the mines of our Falcao Chamber of Commerce? That should be... no more than fifteen gold coins?" President Vincent guessed.

"No, only hardware coins!" Xu Yi stretched out a slap.

"So few?" President Vincent's eyes widened in surprise. "How could the orcs agree to such a low salary?"

"On the contrary, the orcs are very satisfied with this salary, and even expressed their gratitude to me, President Cruise and President Reelsa many times. And the workers in the non-ferrous metal smelting factory of our Xinfei Chamber of Commerce The salary is lower, there are only four gold coins per month, but those orcs are still very grateful to me as the president, and they will offer me the most sincere blessings every time they see me." Xu Yi said with a little pride.

"This..." President Vincent was still a little unconvinced, but after thinking about it, he thought it was very reasonable.

The orcs couldn't earn any gold coins before, and even if they exchanged things, they could only exchange resources that were not abundant from human merchants.

Now you can directly earn golden gold coins, and you can also use these gold coins to directly buy the goods you need from humans, which will of course greatly improve their living standards.

For them, it is good to have a salary income, how can they have such a high salary like these workers in Bangta City?

President Vincent quickly calculated the salary gap and the cost of the goods on the road, etc. In his mind, when he finally made a comparison, he was shocked to find that if he paid the orcs according to what Xu Yi said just now. The salary of the workers, to open a factory on the black rice wasteland, will actually reduce the cost significantly!

After coming to this conclusion, President Vincent's expression when he looked at Xu Yi suddenly became extremely strange.

How did this guy come up with this? (To be continued..)
