Chapter 240

If the situation changes, then he may need to go back to Wuxiang to discuss some things with Sili. After the matter here is over, he has to return to Wuxiang headquarters immediately. Naturally, he will not have time to attend the dinner.

Luo Men didn't force it. In fact, even if Lu Lin came tonight, he would only come to show his face and say hello at most, and then he would have to go back to the Dagashi Cult headquarters. After a few polite words with Lu Lin, he would send him off. he left.

Standing in front of the window, looking at Lu Lin's retreating back downstairs, Luo Men frowned slightly.

"Is the person behind it..." He narrowed his eyes slightly and murmured to himself, "Is it self-directed and self-acted? Or is my guess wrong? Or, Wuxiang really has nothing to do with that organization?"

After pondering for a moment, he seemed to have no answer.

After taking a deep breath, he called out the servant's name.

"Mark! Find someone to take care of tonight's banquet for me. I have to go back to the headquarters..."

Chapter 394: In terms of black heart, can the mere Great Gashi Cult be blacker than the Black Demon School?

"Let the night elves also participate in this negotiation?"

Lu Lin was a little surprised and scattered ≮÷涶⑻弭々③linwu swish: looking at Sili.

"Hasn't the Black Demon School already established a trade relationship with the night elves? Is there any other way needed?"

"Of course it is needed," Silly nodded, "The Black Demon School does not do all kinds of business. The types of goods they are willing to purchase are very limited, and the types of goods they can export are not many. The most important thing is that their business network It’s very special, it’s inconvenient for people to use, and the cost of handling a large amount of goods is also high.”

"Although the resources that the Black Demon School does not collect may actually be needed by Wuxiang in the future, it is impossible for us to lay out a decent trade network in a short time."

"In this case, if we want to integrate the resources of the night elves with Wuxi, we can only go through an intermediary."

"And when it comes to the ⑨ling≥{々８俬▲〔2∠⊙jiu" ⑤-swollen※ｽzhuANＮＱＵＮ: power with the largest commercial network, it must be the Great Gash Cult. "

Listening to Silly's words, Lu Lin fell into a brief silence.

What this means...

Having said the words "resource integration", this is no longer the level of alliance, but rather means that the whole night elves will be attached to the homelessness.

Although the night elves have always been a small group, they are an independent and complete race, and Wuxiang is just a new force that has just been established. Silly's words...

"Well, it seems that we have to go to the night elves tonight?" Lu Lin asked.

"No, this matter is entirely up to me," Silly shook her head. "The night elves have always been too closed-minded. Even the prince doesn't know much about trade. They can't help much this time. I will go directly with you for the negotiation.”

"In order to maintain the mystery of No Country, we can use trade within the night elves as a plus card."

"At the same time, it's not just the business of the night elves, don't forget the bald master. When the independent city-state over there is built, it can also be used as a trade window with the Tianri Sect."

"We can also use this resource in the future. The problem of spatial distance can still be solved by using the Great Gash Cult business network."

"Moreover, if we can establish contact with more forces in the future, this middleman business will have the opportunity to grow even bigger. Do you understand what I mean?"

Lu Lin fell into silence.

He understood what Silly meant. The biggest resource and selling point they currently had was indeed the resources of the Infinite Church.

But this does not mean that they can only be the trade window of the Infinite Church or the middlemen of the Infinite Church.

They can also search it as ②㈨×≤四`¤Lingsi三¤≌５６牭. 〗ｑGroup-∞: The middlemen of his influence are like night elves or the independent city-state of the three elders.

"I understand what you mean," Lu Lin nodded and said, "But, in that case, why don't we just not do business directly with the Great Gash Cult? Instead, use their business network to form our own caravan? "

"Then don't you treat them as tool workers?" Silly said, "Who would agree to borrow their resources to do our business? However, if our import and export can only rely on their resources, It’s really not possible. It’s easy to get choked by them. We really have to form our own caravan. Only in this way can we ensure that we can still do business with other forces when they want to choke us. "

Hearing Silly's words, Lu Lin nodded.

It sounds reasonable. While cooperating with them, we also don't forget to form and develop our own caravan. This is probably the most suitable model at present.

But, why does this feel so weird?

There is no doubt that being a middleman is definitely a way to make a fortune, but Lu Lin always feels that this pattern is still a bit small.

There are actually very few forces that need them as a middleman. The Boundless Church is in a special situation. The night elves have a special relationship with them. Jack's righteous master, if you think about it carefully, if they don't rely on relationships, they may not be able to negotiate.

After all, can they, the middlemen, really bring anything to the upstream and downstream?

It must be said that the advantage they can have in the future depends entirely on how good the cooperation conditions they can get from the Dagash Cult this time.

The craftsmanship of the future middleman business is actually to give some of these favorable conditions to others and keep the rest for yourself, that's all.

It seems feasible, but once the Dagash Cult realizes this, they can completely squeeze out this part of the space.

The one who really has the ability to make this middleman business bigger is Dagashi himself.

With their resources, although it is impossible to create such a heaven-defying e-commerce platform in this world, they only follow the idea of ​​​​the platform and put it into practice. It may not be impossible to become a super middleman yourself.

They have the ability to integrate the business resources of the entire chaotic land, at least it is possible, but they have not done so.

Um?

yes.

Why didn't they do this?

"Are they really from different perspectives in different worlds and at different stages of development of productive forces?" Lu Lin touched his chin.

In fact, he doesn't know much about this aspect, but after thinking about it, he feels that this idea may not be unfeasible, but no one really does it when searching for: jiusi8§⌒er4三糤0⑤.

Did he not consider the actual situation?

Or is it that this time, he finally enjoyed the benefit of standing on the shoulders of giants?

Platform platform, to put it bluntly, is to find consumers, integrate resources, and then connect the two to reduce the cost of connecting both parties. At the same time, it sets rules and establishes its own business order.

In a pure quasi-medieval civilization, it would be impossible to establish such a thing. The transmission speed of information would be too slow and the cost would be too high.

But this world has teleportation magic, familiars that can transport large quantities of goods remotely, and the chaotic land also has countless independent city-states and independent gangs...

After thinking for a while, Lu Lin finally said: "By the way, I have a hypothesis. Of course it is just a hypothesis. Is there a possibility that if we can swallow up their branch in the Land of Chaos and take away their business?" Absorb resources from us, and then use these resources to build ourselves into a super middleman whose business involves all the forces in the Chaos Land? "

"Ah?" Silly was stunned, "Have you been drinking? What nonsense are you talking about?"

"It's just a hypothesis," Lu Lin said, "Can't you think about it?"

"Super middleman?" Luo Di spoke up in a rare voice, "Can you tell me in detail?"

Lu Lin thought for a while and told Luo Di about his rough idea, and then the two discussed the specific methods and feasibility for half an hour. five

"I have never heard of this idea before," Luo Di looked very surprised. "It is technically feasible, but commercially, you are ambitious enough to integrate the entire chaotic land."⑦

"It's just a hypothetical, hypothetical," Lu Lin smiled, "Our current financial situation is just ridiculous, just think about it."

"Just thinking about it, I don't think so..." Luo Di said, "You don't have to eat the resources of the Great Gash Cult. In fact, we can also be parasitic in their bodies and use their chickens to infect us. Maybe one day, they will suddenly find something they have never seen growing out of their territory?

② "We can't do this kind of thing, right?" Lu Lin's mouth twitched. scattered

⑼ "Of course we can't do it just by relying on you." 4

(4) Rudy said. temple

0 "But what if we add an organization whose members are spread all over the land of chaos, hiding in the dark, and with endless methods?" ⑵

⑷ "This," Lu Lin raised his eyebrows, "are you saying..."

3 "Yes," Luo Di smiled, "Don't forget, I am the commander-in-chief."

⑤Chapter 395: This plan is called "Boiling the Old Man"

6 Lu Lin had always believed that the salaries of operators were managed by the Black Devil School.

In fact, the school does pay them wages, but every member of the Black Demon School is very good at making money and spending money. The dead wages paid by the school are almost meaningless to them. feel.

Most of the employees usually find ways to make money on their own. In this case, if the exercise hall wants to keep the employees motivated to work, it has to find ways to help them obtain benefits whenever there is nothing to do.

For example, some tasks with good returns, priority supply rights of some precious resources, some subsidies entrusted by the college, etc.

And these things are naturally applied for through negotiation between the exercise hall and the school.

As the boss of the operators, Luo Di naturally worries about these things.

All along, Luo Di actually wanted to start his own business in the exercise hall.

However, due to his special physique, some things are not convenient for him to do.

In addition, the school exercise itself is a force hiding in the dark and does not arrange the industry openly, so his idea has never been successful.

But today, when Lu Lin expressed his thoughts, he suddenly realized that this might be an opportunity.

Lu Lin is the second person he has met in his life who can remember him. Strictly speaking, he is the first person who can remember him in a real sense. He may not be able to talk about complicated cooperation in detail with others. But with Lu Lin, it's possible.

In response to this matter, they prepared a lot of information, and the idea of ​​​​negotiating with the Dagash Cult also changed from taking as much as possible to getting more benefits, to getting as much benefit as possible. It may obtain some seemingly unimportant permissions, but in fact, it secretly paves the way for plans such as opening up the relationship between major forces and parasitic Gashi Cult business network.

In order to prepare these things, Lu Lin stayed up all night and lost countless brain cells.

He is not really good at these things, and although he said that he was following the platform idea, the gap between the conditions of the two worlds was huge. Many things seemed simple at first glance, but when he looked into the execution, he found that there were many problems.

Fortunately, with the assistance of Sili, Xiulinsi and Luodi, and the help of Xuewei to find faults, the complete plan was successfully completed.

But just completing the plan is just the beginning. er

The next step is to complete the negotiation, which is the most difficult... just

At least Lu Lin thought so. Four

But he obviously underestimated the combat effectiveness of Xuewei and Luodi after joining forces at the negotiation table.

The people sent by the Great Gash Church said that they were members of their highest executive body, and they were the highest-ranking group of people besides the leader and deputy leader of the Great Gash Church. si

That was an old earth spirit with master-level strength, and he was also famous in the business world. When sitting at the negotiation table, even if he didn't say anything, Lu Lin could feel a great pressure. 3

But even against such a person, the Snow Ferret was able to fight him equally, and neither of them gave in. Hmm

At first glance, the Snow Ferret seemed to be making demands that were not in accordance with the plan, but after a few rounds of fighting, it always got the results it wanted in the plan, and sometimes even got better results than expected. liu

Of course, the opponent is not a pushover. There are situations where you can get results beyond your expectations, and there are naturally situations where you encounter hard bones that you can't chew. ⑷

At this time, Luo Di will quietly make some moves.

Generally speaking, when negotiating with the Grand Master of the Great Gash Cult⑻⑸. ％⑺⑹≥"⑹ˉ,⑶ˇ￡⑷→×⑷⑵ＹｕｈaＮQｕn：It is almost impossible to do something on the table.

But Luodi is an exception. The ability of the Philosopher's Stone is almost beyond common sense. Although he can't do too much and can only assist the snow ferret, some things just need a push.

At least it will be no problem to meet the minimum requirements of their plan.

They were fighting fiercely at the negotiation table, while Lu Lin, Si Li and Li Mi became mascots.

Si Li could still speak occasionally, but Lu Lin just played the role of character and didn't say a word.

As for Li Mi.

Eat and drink as you should, and look like you are completely out of the matter.

This made Luo Men, who was also in an awkward situation of not being able to speak because of the boss's arrival, feel He was capable of doing things, either serving tea to Li Mi or serving her snacks in different ways.

Of course, doing these things was just to build relationships and ease the atmosphere, and his attention was always on the negotiations between the two sides.

The more he listened, the more frightened he became. Originally, the other party proposed to call the higher-ups of the Great Gash Cult, and he was still secretly happy. After all, everyone knew that the high-level people of the Great Gash Cult were more powerful than each other in the business world.

But then again, even so, he was lucky enough.

Fortunately, he got someone from above. This familiar who could not see his origin was too powerful. If he went up himself, with this intensity of confrontation, he was afraid that he would not be a match at all.

Although it seems that his side is still vaguely at a disadvantage, at least he is not the one to bear the blame.

The negotiations started in the afternoon of the first day, but ended at midnight on the second day. After the first version of the agreement came out, the other party seemed very dissatisfied, so they repeatedly renegotiated some of the regulations several times, and the time was naturally prolonged.

4 During the period, Lu Lin secretly drank several bottles of refreshing potions in order not to fall asleep.

8 Li Mi was much more direct, and fell asleep directly on Lu Lin's shoulder.

2 This is where the death was not in vain, she would wake up from time to time.

4 But she also knew that she couldn't lose her composure now, so even if she was scared awake, she just held Lu Lin's hand tightly to calm herself down, and would not do more.

⑶ The snow ferret became more and more courageous. Lu Lin suspected that this guy didn't need to sleep at all. After a day and a night, he didn't see any signs of fatigue. On the contrary, the people of the Great Gash gradually couldn't stand it in the second half of the night.

③It can be seen that the other party did not expect the opponent to be so strong before they came. During the period, they hinted to Luo Men several times and asked him to help prepare refreshing potions to put in the drinks.

0But fatigue will eventually accumulate. In the second half, the items he proposed to renegotiate may even have a situation where the renegotiation results are more unfavorable to them than before.

5At this time, he also knew that this battle could not be fought for the time being. Even if he was still dissatisfied with the final result, it was still within the acceptable range and he could make money. He did not intend to struggle anymore.

After a day and a night of high-intensity confrontation, he also gritted his teeth and held on. It is impossible to say that he was not tired.

As for the loss...

"Remember your promise," he said, "the premise of all this is that you can solve the magic puppet incident. I am waiting for your good news."

After leaving this sentence, he asked Luo Men to send Lu Lin and others away.

Back on the earth dragon, Lu Lin looked at the contract in his hand, still a little dazed.
