Chapter 1241 1228. Business Group
In midsummer, the beautiful city of Ruyt is almost surrounded by greenery. Although this century-old mountain city has been baptized by several wars, it still stands on the peak of the Ruyt Mountains in the northern part of Tarapakan. superior.
Although the mottled city wall records the vicissitudes of history, it also shows that after several wars, it has not experienced several large-scale repair projects.
Suldak walked under the green shade of the city wall, Malakom and a group of other merchants from the White Forest plane surrounded Suldak.
"This city has a long history, and the buildings here have a strong Tarapakan cultural atmosphere everywhere. It is the gate of the Gambo plane in Ruyt City, so it is also the only way to go to the Gambo plane. So everyone, If anyone needs to run a business here, it can be said to be a good choice." Xi Ya walked in front of the crowd and introduced Ruyt City to these merchants from the Bailin plane.
Malacomb not only nearly doubled his business group this time, but also brought seven business groups from the Bailin plane. The bosses of these business groups usually have a good personal relationship with Malacomb. I heard that Malacolm saw some business opportunities in Ruyt City, so he followed Malacomm here to make money.
This is also the reason why Suldak is willing to take the time to take these businessmen to wander around Ruyt City.
Malakom followed Suldak, and the Thunder Rhino caravan he brought here this time will take away three dismantled furnaces. The Thunder Rhino Merchant Group camp is stationed outside the city, with a height of nearly nine meters every morning. The Lei Tingxi walked through the city gate and loaded boxes of goods on the shelves in the demolition area of the steel workshop.
In the evening, these thunder rhinos will leave Ruyt City according to a dedicated route.
These Thunder Rhinos will be on standby outside the city, and will return to the Bailin Plane after all the shelves of Thunder Rhinos are fully filled with supplies.
This time, according to Suldak's request last time, Malakom brought innumerable Bailin specialties. Of course, these goods were not only Malakom's alone, but he and seven others. The supporting business group jointly raised these materials.
The merchant group set up camp outside the city in a manor owned by Suldak. This manor is close to the southern city wall of Ruyt. A large amount of supplies are almost covered with thatch, and the goods are stacked together like a hill.
Several business partners were talking in low voices behind them. They carefully observed the city. The prosperity here is even far less than that of Wilkes City. The mottled ancient city walls and uneven stone roads are covered with moss and Ivy, the slums look very crowded, the streets are full of children who can't even wear pants, and many buildings are built with dilapidated wooden houses on top.
"How are the sales of the goods you brought these days?"
Suldak walked in front of a residential house and asked Malakom.
When he raised his head, he just saw several nobles coming out of the dirty alley and quickly boarding a magic caravan, and then the magic caravan quickly turned around and left at the intersection not far away.
Malakom also watched this scene silently, then he turned his head and said to Suldak with a smile:
"Cloth and copper and iron utensils are very popular here, and almost all of them are purchased in large quantities by local business groups, and the prices offered are higher than we expected."
"It's just that some of the porcelain brought here doesn't sell very well. Those who can afford porcelain are local nobles. Obviously, there is no shortage of exquisite porcelain in their homes."
"But the southern specialty of the Bailin plane is very popular. We should bring in more."
"In general, the profits gained from this trade are still very considerable. Even without the shipping fee for the furnace, we can still make a fortune."
For merchants, even if they buy at the same price and sell at the same price in a certain trade, at most they will lose some wages and travel expenses. Losing a little money is completely acceptable to them.
What they are most worried about is that the goods will be embezzled by others. Sometimes when encountering such a thing, the merchants will often go bankrupt.
The trade route opened up by the merchants does not actually refer to the road under their feet, but the relationship they have opened up along the way, so that the goods can reach their destination safely and be sold very smoothly.
In Bena Province, there is no shortage of business opportunities no matter where. The geographical gap makes the prices of many products vary greatly. Merchants rely on transshipment of these materials to make profits.
For businessmen, it is more important to obtain the protection of local dignitaries, so that their business can go on smoothly.
Suldak wants to revitalize the economy of Ruyt City, so naturally he can't count on the local nobles. He hopes that more business groups will come to Ruyt City for trade.
Suldak led the group of people out of the alley near the city wall, stopped at the entrance of the alley and said:
"You are willing to come to Ruyt City to do business. I can't guarantee that all of you can make money. It requires your personal vision, strength and luck, but what I can guarantee is that you will have what you deserve in Ruyt City." Rights and interests can be fully guaranteed and will not be oppressed and exploited by local forces."
The merchants who followed Suldak around the city had relaxed expressions on their faces when they heard what Suldak said.
One of the businessmen boldly stood up and asked loudly: "Master Consul Suldak, is there any restriction on the business group's business projects in Ruyt City?"
Suldak thought for a while before saying: "Slave trading is prohibited here. Apart from this, there are no other restrictions in Ruyt City for the time being!"
This group of businessmen heard Suldak make such a promise, and the private conversation became more heated.
…
After seeing off the group of Malakom merchants, Suldak turned and returned to the foot of the city wall, where Luke and Charlie were waiting.
Suldak put his hands on the shoulders of Luke and Charlie, and asked them both: "Have you checked the damage to the city walls in this area?"
Luke nodded and said actively: "Well, the city wall in this area is very damaged, and it will take a lot of work to repair it..."
"Are you interested in taking this project down?" Suldak continued to ask.
"Duck, will we have a bad influence on you if we follow you around to contract projects?" Charlie asked with some concern.
Suldak waved his hand and said: "Of course not, I hope you will do these things, and I also hope that you can help me figure out the specific costs. Every year, Ruyte spends a lot of maintenance costs, but it doesn't seem to be very effective. Sample."
"Next, you will issue a written report based on the damages you have checked and submit it to the logistics department. There is no need to rush this matter. You only need to rest the steps and the ground on the city wall in advance."
"Got it..." Charlie breathed a sigh of relief when he heard Suldak say this...
