Chapter 2053 Means of Trade
The Summoning Scroll is so famous that it is impossible to hide it even if you want to.
It's just that the speed of news spreading can be fast or slow, and Qi Le can't be sure when the news of the summoning scroll will reach the ears of other major forces.
Now, taking advantage of the battle at Big Rock Pass, news of the summoning scroll will definitely break out.
Blocking news is very unrealistic.
After all, the 100,000 troops of the Blackwater Kingdom, plus a border garrison commander, were all trapped outside the Great Stone Pass. Those forces who did not pay attention to such a big event must have lost their minds.
In addition, the summoning scroll is very popular among the noble circles of Yanlong Kingdom.
Presumably, the capital of the Flame Dragon Kingdom would have sent an envoy so eagerly to go directly to the Flame Academy to find Angel.
He must have received some news and knew that people from other forces were also paying attention to this matter.
So it's better to strike first.
As long as he buys up all the summoning scrolls in Viscount Belot's fiefdom, he won't be afraid that people from other forces will buy the summoning scrolls.
No matter what happens, as long as there are enough reserves of the summoning scroll.
Then there is no need to worry that people from other forces can also buy the summoning scroll.
What a good calculation.
Because Yanlong Kingdom has express regulations, under normal circumstances, it is not allowed to interfere with the business activities of noble families.
So we can only use this compromise method.
It's a pity that the leader of the Flame Dragon Kingdom could never have imagined that there would be no way to buy all the summoning scrolls in Viscount Bellot's fief.
"Angel, what do you think?"
Qi Le rubbed his chin, but instead of saying his suggestion, he asked Angel a question.
I want to see how Angel handles this situation first.
How should you react when facing a hostile businessman who wants to buy a secret weapon?
"I think we should drive them out. If we sell the summoning scroll to them, the Blackwater Kingdom will take some small steps again."
Angel said seriously.
The very typical thinking of a noble child is completely different from that of a businessman.
"No, no, no, Angel, it's not like that."
Qi Le shook his head, sighed, and couldn't help but speak.
"You can't run a trading city with your thinking. Why not switch to tourism now?"
If the Silver Moon Plain is tidied up, it can still be regarded as beautiful with beautiful mountains and clear waters, and the singing of birds and the fragrance of flowers.
If you plan carefully, you may not be unable to do tourism.
It's just that in this world, there probably aren't many people who like to travel.
"Huh? Then what should I do?"
Angel asked quickly.
"It's very simple. Sell them the low-level summoning scrolls and the medium-level summoning scrolls. The high-level summoning scrolls are said to have limited production and will not be sold for the time being."
"There is indeed enmity between the Flame Dragon Kingdom and the Black Water Kingdom, but there shouldn't be any enmity between you and Gold Coin."
Qi Le answered lightly.
As long as high-level summoning scrolls are not sold to the outside world, low-level summoning scrolls and mid-level summoning scrolls will not be able to cause much trouble at all.
Sell a bunch of low-end products to hostile forces and earn back gold coins. It's the best of both worlds.
You know, the amount of gold coins required to build a large city-state is an astronomical number. Just saying it can make people tremble.
Let alone take it out.
Therefore, you must not miss this opportunity to earn foreign exchange.
And those merchants who came here all the way from the Blackwater Kingdom naturally knew the value of the summoning scroll.
The greatest value is not how strong the summoned beast summoned by the summoning scroll is.
Instead, anyone can use the summoning scroll.
Therefore, no matter what level the summoning scroll is, it is a rare item.
If they are businessmen who come here for profit, they will not care about the level of the summoning scroll at all.
Because whether it is a low-level summoning scroll, a mid-level summoning scroll, or a high-level summoning scroll, it is profitable.
The only difference is how much one can earn from a summoning scroll.
Then it depends on the abilities of these businessmen themselves.
Therefore, if a businessman complains why he cannot buy a high-level summoning scroll, he must have a conspiracy.
For example...the leader of the Blackwater Kingdom sent him here to spy on information.
For such people, just throw them out.
Let's make the crime public.
After all, large trading city-states are neutral in most situations.
It is precisely because of this characteristic that it is widely loved and respected by businessmen from all forces.
Therefore, this kind of thing, just like undercover, is deeply disgusting.
"Yes! There is still such a practice!"
When Angel heard this, he made a fist with his right hand and hammered it on the palm of his left hand, with a look of sudden realization on his face.
Businessmen are profit-seeking, so as long as you release profits, they will catch wind of it and come.
Even if you just leave them a mouthful of soup while eating meat, they will still be grateful.
Who can have trouble with gold coins?
As for whether the things you buy from you are of the best quality, these merchants are not concerned about whether they are of the highest quality.
It’s not for their own use anyway.
"It's good that you understand. Now you know what to do."
Qi Le showed a cowardly expression.
This is just a simple means of trade.
Because of course the best products must be in your own hands.
Otherwise, how can we form price suppression, quality suppression, and set standards?
As for whether this approach is beneficial to the Yanlong Kingdom, Qi Le has really not considered it, but Angel will consider this issue.
So Qi Le helped Angel answer the question.
At the same time, it was also to pass on this message to other forces through this incident - Viscount Bellot's fiefdom was a free trade fiefdom.
It will also become a free trade city-state in the future.
If you don't believe it, just take a look at this - merchants from the Blackwater Kingdom can still conduct trade when they come.
So what are you waiting for?
Once the reputation is established, as long as the construction of Silver Moon City is completed, it doesn't matter even if it is not recognized by the Yanlong Kingdom.
Because all the large and small forces in the entire summoning world have recognized the name Silver Moon City.
Does it matter whether it is recognized by the Yanlong Kingdom?
Justified?
That was only for those noble families. For Qi Le, as long as he could accomplish his goal, that would be enough.
It's just that Angel probably hasn't thought about this aspect.
Otherwise, he wouldn't look so cheerful.
