Chapter 280 Return to Hopelander

The water rises and falls, and the boat rises and falls slowly with the waves. On the coast under the flowing clouds and blue sky, the city embraces the sea like a crescent moon, with sailboats docked in it, with long masts like a forest.

On the main road from the seaport to the interior of the city, there are endless carriages, which transport various goods and raw materials back and forth, just like the main blood vessels of the human body.

Hopelander, this commercial city is more prosperous than ever. After no longer infighting and not being restrained by Yubere, it gradually became the absolute center of New Verga, where goods from all parts of Xuehua seven inland were handled, and then sent to the Southern Islands, or to the East, anyway, choose to have A lot, more free than ever.

And now the most prosperous area in the city is also vaguely divided into three circles, one is the headquarters of the Karites Chamber of Commerce in the center of the city, the other is the New Verga Commercial Association in the east of the city, and the other is the old-fashioned big Chamber of Commerce in the west of the city Harris's house.

Follow the gray and white stone brick street in the center and go straight ahead, and a building complex surrounded by high white walls appears in the eyes. The pavilions and towers here have purple tiles and tops, and the walls are also clean. The white limestone looks elegant and clean.

Across the slightly lively front yard and building, a pavilion in the backyard of the Chamber of Commerce is on the third floor.

There are long tables in the big dining room, but now there is only one girl at the table.

"Sister Chelsea, don't you have to be so rich?"

Lacey looked at the various delicacies placed on the table on the white cloth, and felt that she would not be able to finish it. Chelsea were not so wasteful before.

"Miss, just choose what you like to eat. You rarely come back once, and you may have to leave one day. How can you be wronged and eat what you don't like." Chelsea stood next to the girl and said solemnly.

"Okay, but I really can't eat much. Let the maids cover the rest, and I won't touch it."

The girl chose three that she liked, and let the maid on the side carry the rest. In the huge restaurant, only the eldest lady and the maid were left.

"Sister Chelsea, how are you doing recently?" The girl raised her head and looked at the head maid beside her.

"Thank you for your concern, Miss. It's not bad so far." Chelsea pushed down her glasses, dignified and straight, giving people a meticulous feeling.

Lacey looked at the head maid in front of her, but she was thinking about something more rude, and that was how old the head maid was.

She should be of the same generation as Angus and Jelink. It is said that she knew each other in the bar that Angus used to visit when he was young. At that time, she was a waiter, and she should be around 20 years old. Ten years have passed. In other words, the head maid should be around 40 years old.

However, looking at the face, it gives the impression that he is only in his early 30s. It is probably well maintained and he has a certain extraordinary strength.

Leaving aside these digressions for a while, after Lacey finished her lunch, Chelsea asked the other maids to clean up the table, and then brought teapots and cups to the eldest lady. In this way, the two people slowly talked about the current situation of the Chamber of Commerce.

"Thanks to the previous defeat and absorption of three major chambers of commerce, the current assets of Karites have nearly tripled compared to before."

"Of course, this is also inseparable from the establishment of New Verga, because the Karites Chamber of Commerce is currently dominant in the alliance, and many things will be handled with less resistance and smoother, and can seize many opportunities."

Chelsea introduced the grand occasion and development process of the Chamber of Commerce today.

Once the Nissos family's liquor market was jointly divided by the Karites and the Helis family, the market positions of the Anemii family's perfumes, flowers, jewelry, etc. were replaced by several new chambers of commerce. They belonged to each other. In different segments, the competition is not fierce at present.

The arms industry of the Tisifone family is now managed by the commercial union, which is jointly supervised by everyone, and its output and income will be used to maintain stability within the alliance and defend against foreign enemies.

"What are the main sources of income for our Karites?" Lacey took a small sip of the tea that was no longer scalding.

"At present, the shipbuilding industry is still the main business, followed by wine, textile and other businesses, and then there is the supermarket proposed by the eldest lady."

"According to your previous instructions, we only do venues and storefronts, and other chambers of commerce are responsible for goods and commodities. As a result, the proportion of income is not large."

"Well, it's like this at the moment, but our purpose is to do a good job of this platform, not a certain product." Lacey nodded.

"In the future, we will continue to develop logistics and post stations in various regions, and strive for affordable and complete products in supermarkets in various branches, and the styles should be unified."

"When we want everyone to buy something, the first thing that comes to mind is to come to our store and have a look." The girl said about her future goals.

Seeing that Chelsea did not understand, the girl added: "Although this industry is not very profitable at present, it is very stable, and its expanded transportation and logistics are the most important parts."

"When the system matures, we can ship raw materials from anywhere and send goods to various places at the same time. At the same time, we also have the capital to negotiate with other suppliers."

"If other chambers of commerce see it, will they follow suit?" Chelsea asked. There are no patents in this era.

"It's hard to learn from us," Lacey said with a rare playfulness.

"The first is the type of goods. It is not easy to unite with many other chambers of commerce, and we also have countermeasures. The second is the large amount of costs in the early stage. If the market is blank, it is fine, but with our first

For example, if the other party wants to seize the market from us, it has to invest more, and it has to change the consumption habits of the original people. "

Maybe it was a long illness that became a doctor. The girl couldn't help but think so.

Even if it wasn't her, a young man from another new century would probably have come up with these ideas. Without him, I have experienced too much. The history of the development of life is the history of making money by those giant companies.

Monopoly, mastering platforms and channels, is always the most powerful and profitable way. It's not good or evil, it's just the law of how things develop.

The real difference between good and bad is whether you're actually delivering a product you can trust and deserve. At the same time, where such a large amount of wealth is finally fed back is the fundamental question.

In the early stage of industrialization, the startup of each project was a big mouthful of gold, and the girl had to plan ahead and accumulate more capital to cope with various storms.
