Chapter 294 Bena Port

a few days later

The morning sun shone softly on the sea, dazzling a little star.

"Europe--"

With the high-pitched chirping, more than a dozen seagulls hovered over a fleet of thirteen ships and four small chambers of commerce, and refused to leave for a long time.

On the deck of a large ship in the middle of the fleet.

At this time, there is a square table here, and the table is full of wine and vegetables, and four middle-aged men in luxurious clothes and kind faces are sitting on one side of the table, drinking wine and chatting together!

These four people are the masters of this mixed fleet and the presidents of four different small chambers of commerce!

"Three, the four of us haven't seen each other for half a year, I miss you so much!" One of the tall and thin middle-aged men said with a smile.

"Ender, do you miss us, or do you miss the gold and animal skins on Pena Island?" a middle-aged man with a fat body and a kind face teased.

That's right, the fleet led by the four is going to Pena Island!

And if you want to talk about why the four of them gathered to go to Pena Island, you have to talk about the situation in the South China Sea!

Compared with the mafia everywhere in the West China Sea, the Chamber of Commerce is the most abundant in the South China Sea!

Why are there so many chambers of commerce?

The reason is because the commercial trade in the South China Sea is very developed, therefore, various chambers of commerce have emerged one after another!

And for the Chamber of Commerce, the most important thing is of course interests!

In the West Sea, all walks of life, including every small island, as long as there is interest, there will be more or less different chambers of commerce!

Some of them occupy one place, and some of them have business connections with the world, but no matter what, they are only for the benefit of one thing!

And the small gold mines and animal skins on Pena Island are benefits!

Therefore, Pena Island naturally attracted the arrival of some chambers of commerce.

However, due to the remote location of Pena Island, transportation, supplies, etc. are all troublesome. The cost of obtaining gold mines and animal skins on Pena Island remains high, and the benefits that can be obtained are very small. People from large chambers of commerce don't look down on it here.

But the medium and large ones don't like it, but the small chambers of commerce can like it!

For small chambers of commerce, in the environment of Xihai where there are so many chambers of commerce, if you want to survive, you must not let go of any benefits. Therefore, at the beginning, Bena Island also attracted a lot of small chambers of commerce.

But here comes the problem!

Bena Island has few benefits, and there are many small chambers of commerce. Everyone will share the benefits. As a result, not only did they not make money, but they lost a little!

If it is a large chamber of commerce, even if it loses a little, it will not care!

But the people who come here are all small chambers of commerce, and if they lose a little bit, they will die!

Therefore, after the first transaction, the second time began, fewer people came, the third time, the fourth time, less and less, and finally, Ender four joined together, in the remaining other small After the chambers of commerce were crowded out, they monopolized the resources of the entire Bena Island!

Of course, even if it is a monopoly, they would not dare to do too much, such as selling things from the tribes on Pena Island at super high prices, or buying things on Pena Island at super low prices, none of these!

Because the tribes on Pena Island are not stupid, nor are they the ones without resistance!

When the gold mine was discovered before, the fate of several chambers of commerce that united to seize the gold mine was still vivid in their minds!

Therefore, their transaction prices are relatively normal!

Because of this, they didn't earn much per transaction, and four people made a point, even less!

So, they finally figured out a way!

That is once every six months!

In doing so, there are three most intuitive benefits!

First of all, their interests will not decrease, because gold mines and furs are the kind that can be saved and will be accumulated, so they trade once a month, and the profit obtained by trading once every six months is the same!

Second, their costs will also drop a lot. Originally, they came once a month, but now they come once every six months. I don’t know how much the transportation cost has been saved.

The third thing is to save time. Originally once a month, now a half-yearly trip, which is an extra few months!

And more time, they will naturally not waste, but do other business and earn more benefits!

"Ah, ha, think about it, think about it!" Ender smiled and asked the three of them, "Don't you want to?"

"Ah ha ha!"

"Ha ha!"

"Ha ha!"

When he said this, the other three looked at each other in dismay, and then laughed in unison.

really!

All four of them came for the same purpose!

Only for profit!

What you miss is fake, only money is real!

Afterwards, the four of them began to exchange business information, business gossip, etc. After chatting for a long time, the ship finally arrived not far from Bena Island!

"Wait, that. What is that?" Looking at Pena Island in the distance, Ender couldn't help but stand up, pointed at it, widened his eyes, and said incredulously.

After seeing his appearance, the other three also stood up suspiciously and turned to look at Pena Island!

Immediately, the three of them also opened their mouths and eyes widened, revealing an unbelievable look!

The screen turned and came to the port of Pena Island at this time.

The original dilapidated pier has completely disappeared!

With the efforts of Saint Martin's Ministry of Industry, which has inherited some of the strength of the infrastructure madman, the current dock has become a huge port!

Inside the port, the cement-paved ground, the forts standing along the semi-circular coast, the rows of shops in the port, the Saint Martin soldiers patrolling the port, everything looks so incredible!

"This is. This is the port of Pena Island?" Ender asked in shock.

But the other three were stunned and did not answer his words!

So, he pushed the fat middle-aged man beside him, and asked again, "Aberle, are you sure it was six months ago when we came last time?"

"Uh, after I'm sure, you still owe me ten Baileys when we played cards six months ago!" Yarborough, who was pushed a few times, also responded and nodded.

"So, how did the port of Pena Island look like this now? It's been six fucking months, it's like six years!" Ender asked in disbelief, "And, with The tribal natives on Pena Island can do this?"

"How do I know?" Yarborough said angrily, "I just remember that the last time we came, it was a broken pier, and even the boats were not easy to park. Who knows how it has become such a luxurious port. Woolen cloth?"

"Then what do we do now? Enter, or not?" One of the four bald middle-aged men looked at the other three and asked.

"This" he asked, the other three looked at each other and hesitated a bit.

Now this port doesn't know what's going on, and they don't dare to enter rashly, otherwise, what if something happens?

After a long silence, Ender suggested, "Let's pack up a boat, and then send a few of each of them to take a look, see what happened, and then make plans, how about it?"

"Row!"

"it is good!"

"Then it's settled!"

This proposal was immediately answered by the other three.

After a while, the four of them packed up the smallest boat, and then each of them sent ten men to head towards Pena Island!
