Chapter 781 I Am No Longer a Member of the Maro Kingdom
The Shopping Chamber of Commerce Alliance proposed by the old man quickly succeeded and began to expand rapidly in a short period of time. Countless shops joined in after tasting the benefits, allowing this monster to expand very quickly.
Chi Nan ignored it, as long as nothing happened. The old man who made the suggestion is quickly amassing a terrifying wealth through this method. At this rate, he may soon become the richest man under the lord.
Because these airships only fly where there is a network, there is no need to hire mercenaries or purchase Hummingbird fighters, as long as there is an airship. Also because their transportation network is convenient, shipping costs are not high. As a result, the space inside the entire territory was basically filled with people like them.
Others who have not joined cannot squeeze in to do business within the territory, and can only engage in more dangerous business activities outside the territory. With the sale of a large number of airships, flying airships can now be seen everywhere above the territory.
The airways in the sky seem busier than the roads on the ground. This chamber of commerce alliance, which combines online shopping and express delivery, quickly spread to all walks of life in the entire territory with Chi Nan's connivance.
Recently, Hermilla seemed to be thinking about letting the old man join the territorial management and become one of the councilors.
At least when it comes to business, this old man has a very keen sense of smell. I believe that with the addition of this old man, my work will become much easier. It's just that Hermila has never made up her mind.
While the territory was developing rapidly, Weiweisi also brought people to the Kingdom of Maro. Weiweisi needs to negotiate with the representatives of the Maro Kingdom and the upcoming Holy Dragon Empire to discuss various matters of cooperation and transactions.
The goods transported from the Half-Elf Empire arrived in the territory, and then had to go around in a circle to the Kingdom of Maro and the Kingdom of Holy Dragon for trade, which was already very troublesome. But there is no way, it is impossible to directly enter the Holy Dragon Empire transaction.
The territory on the other side is not strong enough, and it is impossible to develop too much power in the half-elf empire. It is not safe there. Even Silinka Ye has been busy recently.
Chi Nan directly gave Silinkaye a task, asking Silinkaye to introduce a large number of natural mages from the half-elf empire. Silinkaye's appearance in this kind of thing was more convincing than his own intervention.
Without Silinkaye's supervision, Chi Nan was finally able to do his own thing leisurely.
In the Maruo Palace, Weiweisi slowly walked in with her people and bowed slightly to the king who was sitting at the head.
Everyone's expressions were very strange, and their eyes were very complicated. Weiweisi is the little princess of the Maruo Kingdom, the apple of the king's eye. Vicissitudes have changed in such a short period of time, and now my daughter is no longer a member of her own kingdom.
"Little sister, I didn't expect you to be the one to negotiate this time. It's okay, we are all a family, and many things are easier to talk about. Since we are going to use the Maro Kingdom as a trading location this time, we can't do without benefits. , we have to charge 30% of the transaction fee. In addition, the Holy Tree Territory also needs to protect our safety and prevent the Holy Dragon Empire from harming our interests."
The eldest prince spoke out his request without hesitation. "That's right, little sister, you can't open your eyes to outsiders. If we live well, it's good for you too." Many people started to support.
Seeing their faces, Wei Weisi's joyful mood suddenly cooled down. When did these people become like this? Are they still the amiable family members before, and they actually make things so difficult for themselves for their own interests?
If I agree to this condition, I won't have to deal with it in the Holy Tree Territory in the future. 30% transaction tax, it’s a shame they can tell it. Even the Holy Dragon Empire only took away half of it.
Taking a deep breath, Weiweisi's originally excited face slowly cooled down: "I am no longer a member of the Maro Kingdom, nor a princess of the Maro Kingdom. I am just the lord and wife of the Holy Tree Territory."
The hall suddenly became quiet. After a long time, the eldest prince stroked his beard and his eyes became sharp: "Little sister, what's the matter with you? We know that you have resentment in your heart, but we had no choice but to do so due to the situation at that time. Anyway, here is This is your home, we are all your family.”
Weiweisi shook her head and said: "As a princess, I have been taught since I was a child that after marrying, my husband's family will be the main one. The original family can only be regarded as an outsider. You can take sides, but you must not forget your own duty."
Everyone frowned, because this was indeed a princess education. In fact, all major nobles taught their daughters this way. But can this situation be the same? This is obviously forced.
"Chi Nan treats me very well, better than any of you treat your wives. With such great power, he can let us women manage it and let us do what we like to do. Which of you can do that? "
"This negotiation was not requested by Chi Nan, but by myself. Do you know why? Because I want to prove that I am now the lord's wife of the Holy Tree Territory, and I will not betray even if I face the Maro Kingdom. ”
Wei Weisi's voice was so loud that everyone in the hall closed their mouths, and even their breathing could be heard clearly. The eldest prince is in his forties and can accurately grasp Wei Weisi's thoughts. He wanted to say something, but when he saw Weiwei's firm eyes, the eldest prince sighed. It seemed that anything he said was useless.
Many people were communicating with their eyes, but no one knew what they were communicating.
Finally, the king's eyes became serious and sharp: "Tell us your demands, as long as they are not too excessive, we will agree." The king expressed his position and put Weiweisi in a higher position than himself.
Weiweisi's heart trembled, but she still gritted her teeth and said: "Chi Nan said that win-win cooperation is the best, so we won't make you sad. 5% transaction tax, plus protect the Kingdom of Maro from bullying."
"How can you do this? What can you do with just this little?" A woman with a royal emblem almost cursed.
"Shut up." The king glared at her fiercely, lowered his head and kept silent. "In fact, even if you don't give us anything, it won't matter. In the game of big forces, we can only be regarded as pawns. 5% is already a lot, I agree."
Weiweisi breathed a sigh of relief. To be honest, she didn't want to be like this: "Don't underestimate these shares. The transaction volume in the future will be very large. This 5% share may be more than all the other income of the Kingdom of Maro combined."
