Chapter 418

Chelinina heard Orson say this and looked at him in surprise.

"Oson, what do you mean by that?"

"I feel that becoming the first chamber of commerce in the empire and controlling the largest market, like your father did, is far from reaching the ultimate level of a businessman."

"So, Orson, what do you think is the ultimate form of a businessman?"

"I think the ultimate thing for a businessman is to be able to control the destiny of a country or even the world by manipulating the market." Orson said this and looked at Chelinina.

"Chelinina, your father's ambitions are too small. Even if he becomes the largest businessman in the empire, he only wants to cling to the powerful and ensure his own development through the power of the powerful."

"What about you, Chelinina, who do you want to be?"

"I……"

"I don't know." Chelinina shook her head. "Orson, I don't know..."

"Maybe, as you said, my father's ambition is too small, but my ambition is not necessarily as big as you described."

"Or... I feel that my strength is not up to your expectations, Orson..."

"Then, what if I say, I will support you?" Orson put his hand on Chelinina's hand.

Hearing what Orson said, Chelinina's face turned red.

"If it's your request, Orson..."

"No, this is not a request, Chelinina, this is a request."

"I want you to promise me to try to become the great businessman that I envisioned you to be, the greatest businessman of all time."

"I will try." Hearing Orson say this, Chelinina nodded.

"However, what is currently in front of me is the Silver Moon Chamber of Commerce."

"Don't worry about this." Orson said and smiled.

"The Silver Moon Chamber of Commerce is like the setting sun in the evening, while the Lissen Chamber of Commerce is like the rising sun in the morning. You will replace the Silver Moon Chamber of Commerce and will last forever."

After saying this, Orson continued: "By the way, Chelinina, I'm going to Saint Laurent City in a while. You can go with me. I have some people I want to introduce to you."

"Furthermore, with the current strength of the Lissen Chamber of Commerce in the empire, if it still resides in Antica City, it will seem a bit out of class."

…

On the other side, Saint Laurent City, the headquarters of the Silver Moon Chamber of Commerce.

"What?" Louis looked at Paul in front of him and was stunned for a moment.

"Are you telling the truth?"

"Yeah." Paul nodded. "Now, most of the textiles on the market are sourced from the Aragon region, and the company that monopolizes the textile market in the Aragon region happens to be the Lissen Chamber of Commerce."

"In this wave, the Lissen Chamber of Commerce raised our prices alone, while its own chamber of commerce adopted the original price. There is no doubt that the Lissen Chamber of Commerce is trying to squeeze our market through price competition."

After hearing this, Louis frowned.

At first, he thought that his daughter's establishment of her own business was just a small incident, but unexpectedly, her daughter actually got into something big.

The little lion grew up and bit the old lion.

"Paul, what should we do now to ensure that our market is not taken away?"

"It's difficult." Paul said, shaking his head. "President, at present, people are still buying things from our Silver Moon Chamber of Commerce according to their usual thinking, but when they see that Lissen Chamber of Commerce is more profitable, our losses will be even greater."

"Currently, we can only sell all the textiles we have at reduced prices in order to recover costs, completely give up the textile market, and expand other markets. Only in this way can we alleviate the blow caused to us by this round of offensive by the Lissen Chamber of Commerce."

At present, the textile supply chain has been completely monopolized by Lissen Chamber of Commerce. Lissen Chamber of Commerce has the pricing power of textiles, so it is invincible in this field.

Hearing Paul say this, Louis fell silent.

Textiles are the bulk of the trading industry. To cut this piece of meat would undoubtedly be to cut off an arm.

But if in order to ensure the price of textiles, the east wall is demolished to make up for the west wall, the impact will be even greater.

This step is undoubtedly a dead move.

"Paul." At this time, Louis slowly raised his head.

"President, please speak."

"Do you think I did something wrong?" As he said this, there was a hint of loneliness in his tone.

"My daughter obviously has this kind of business talent, but I never considered letting her inherit the family. Instead, I let my two incompetent sons inherit it."

"Tell me, if I had let Chelinina succeed me from the beginning, would the Silver Moon Chamber of Commerce be developing better now..."

"..." Paul also fell silent when he heard Louis say this. "Sorry, no one can make a conclusion about what has not happened. President, we still have to get through the current crisis."

Chapter 38: Not talking about her (3K)

The cold winter is about to pass and spring is coming.

The new semester at Imperial College will also begin.

Orson brought Li Te and Lena to Saint Laurent City two days in advance.

The purpose is of course to help Lena go through the admission procedures for Imperial College.

"Orson, you came to school so early and came to see me specifically. You must have something you want me to help you with, right?" In the dean's office, Luca sat at his desk and looked at Orson sitting on the sofa. , said with a smile.

"I can't hide it from you, dean." Orson smiled awkwardly, and then said: "It's like this, dean, I have something important here, I want to talk to you."

"Oh?" Hearing Orson say this, Luca became interested, he leaned forward, and then asked: "Orson, what do you think?"

"Has there been a precedent for half-orcs to enter the academy before?"

"No." Luca shook his head. "The half-orc race is quite special, in the middle of the double discrimination between humans and orcs. Half-orcs cannot get access to good education. Their own qualifications and talents may be similar to humans, but due to the small number of tribes and discrimination, no half-orcs can meet the admission standards of the Imperial Academy. Even if there are, they will not consider..."

"Then, Imperial Academy, is there a precedent for half-term transfer?"

"It seems that there is no such precedent." Luca shook his head. "The Imperial Academy enrolls students in the second half of the year. Although there is no explicit rule prohibiting transfers during the school year, it is clear that the Imperial Academy, which has the best students in the empire, does not need students who transfer from other academies."

"Then, the dean, you can consider the person I am going to talk about next and see if you can set a precedent for her."

As he said this, Orson introduced Lena to Luca.

"This girl should be an adult this year according to the age of the orcs. Her specific age is probably no more than 20 years old."

"Then what?" Luca continued to ask.

After all, according to the other party's current information, the Imperial Academy is really not attractive.

It is impossible for her to take this backdoor because of Orson's relationship.

"For some reasons, the opponent has a special physique. Now, in terms of strength, the combat power is already at the eighth level of human beings or even higher."

"This is a plastic talent. I think that being in the Imperial Academy can help her grow faster. At the same time, she can also serve as a representative to ease the relationship between humans and orcs. After all, Dean Luca, you should already know the current situation of orcs. With the orcs almost extinct, there is really no hatred between orcs and humans. The two tribes need an excellent orc who has received human education as a bond."

Hearing Orson's evaluation of Lena's strength, Luca widened his eyes in surprise.

"Orson, is what you said true? Does the other party really have the strength of the eighth level or even higher?"

"It's just pure power. The other party doesn't know how to use his own power, so I have this idea. In this way, it can be regarded as a golden signboard for the Imperial College, isn't it?"

"You... Orson, your idea is good, but you have to let me discuss it with the college council. If the council agrees, it is not impossible to set a precedent for her."

"Tomorrow is just the day before school starts, and the council is going to hold a regular meeting. I will tell them at the regular meeting."

"Okay." Orson heard Luca say this, stood up and bowed to him.

"Then, I will wait for the good news from Dean Luca." After that, Orson left the dean's office.

"Eighth level...even higher..." Luca muttered to himself after Orson left.

Orson is not a person who likes to lie. He should also know what will happen if he lies in this sentence.

However, the sudden appearance of such a strong man among the orcs is still a bit beyond Luca's imagination.

It's not that there are no orcs with high combat power. Luca is well-informed and knows many powerful orcs, but most of these orcs have been working hard in society for many years and have been trained slowly.

As Orson said, the other party's age is probably about the same as Orson. A genius of this age is quite explosive even among humans.

"Alas, I hope what you said is true, Orson." Luca said this and sighed.

On the other side, Orson returned to the hotel.

This time he stayed in the Star Hotel where he stayed when he brought Lit to Saint Laurent City for the first time.

However, this time there was no scene of only one double room. Orson booked a separate single room for all three people.

Of course, they only stayed in a single room when they slept at night, and they gathered in Orson's room during the day.

There is no need to worry about the problem of too small space. After all, it is a place specially for rich people and nobles to live. Even if it is a single room, the space here is quite large.

After returning to his room, Orson saw Lit reading a book with Lena.

"Orson, you're back?" Lit heard the sound of the door opening and turned his head quickly.

"Yeah." Orson nodded.

"How is Lena's application for admission?"

"It's going well." Orson said this and sat on the chair.

"I told Dean Luca about this matter. He promised me that he would bring it up at the board meeting tomorrow and try to help me, but it is likely to be passed."

After all, in this era, the strong are respected.

If Lena's eighth-level power is spread, not to mention being enrolled as a student, even being a teacher is completely possible.

Of course, Orson has not yet told others about the power of the demigod, otherwise it might be even more exciting.

However, if the matter of the demigod power was told, it might attract the attention of people with ulterior motives. In order to protect Lena, Orson only covered it up with "special physique".

"Big brother, let's go to Saint Laurent City for a walk?" At this time, Lena also jumped down from her seat and came to Orson.

"The people in Saint Laurent City don't seem to have such great malice towards my race."

In fact, think about it, humans and orcs don't have any long-term hatred, but they just hate the whole family.

Those humans who have suffered from the disaster of orcs will of course discriminate against orcs, but humans who have not suffered from the disaster will be indifferent to orcs at most, not to the point of discrimination.

And the people living in Saint Laurent City don't even care about orcs, let alone a mere orc.

"Well, forget it, didn't I just take you to visit a part of it this morning." Orson said this, and suddenly remembered something, and then he stood up from the chair.

"Oh, I suddenly remembered that I have something to deal with. Lit, you stay here and take care of Lena. I will probably be back in the evening."

As he said this, Orson came to a double room upstairs and knocked on the door gently.

Then, the door opened quickly, and a hand quickly stretched out and pulled Orson in.

As soon as Orson entered the room, he saw Olivia sitting at the table drinking tea, and Lianka, who dragged him into the room and stared at him angrily in front of him.

"Orson, you big pig's hoof!" Lianka said this, as if she wanted to let her sister's anger vent on her behalf, and punched Orson in the chest a few times.

"Lianka, I was wrong, I was wrong, don't hit me, you misunderstood!"

"Misunderstanding?! What misunderstanding! My sister and I saw you and Lit shopping with a half-orc girl this morning. How are you going to explain it?! Are you going to say that the girl is the one you are going to introduce to Lit?"

"That's right!" Orson nodded.

Lianka was really smart, she said everything he wanted to say.

"Then why were Lit and her on both sides of you the whole time? If you introduced Lit, shouldn't you let them walk together?"

"That's because they are not familiar with each other yet." Orson said this helplessly.

"Okay, Lianka, let Orson come over." At this time, Olivia, who was sitting at the table, also spoke.

"Humph." Lianka snorted coldly, but still did it.

Orson sat next to Olivia.

"Olivia, listen to my explanation, Lena and I are not that kind of relationship."

"I know." Olivia took a sip of tea and nodded. "But I'm really a little worried. What if you happen to have a hobby of liking half-orcs, Orson, I can't wear animal ears and tails..."

I don't know if Olivia said this intentionally or unintentionally, but Olivia's beast girl appearance suddenly appeared in front of Orson, and his face flushed slightly.

Olivia glanced at Orson, noticed the change in his expression, and chuckled.

"It seems that Orson, you really like this?"

"No, no, Olivia, you think too much." Orson said seriously: "Actually, Lena and I met in the desert."
