Inquirer of Teyvat

Chapter 367 Willing to plan (6k)

"Dumping at a low price, occupying the market, and cutting the leeks after the unification of the market. Sure enough, no matter where it is, this method is the best business model for big capital and big businesses."

A sneer appeared on the corner of his mouth, Wang Daoyi shook his head slightly, he really looked down on such despicable methods of fools,
However, look down on it, look down on it, if the fools really succeeded, and the food passage was completely occupied by them, then Chisha would really bleed a little.

After a slight turn of his thoughts, Wang Daoyi gave a countermeasure,

"West Germany, re-plan the tribe's grain procurement plan, avoid purchasing a large amount of grain from the same chamber of commerce, conduct public auctions, and select the three or five cheapest ones for procurement. In addition, add half of the grain storage warehouses to store grain. .”

If Wang Daoyi didn't know about this, then fools could occupy the entire market at a low price. Unfortunately, since Wang Daoyi knew about it, it would be different.

Sid's face changed, and he heard the meaning of Wang Dao's words. Did the caravan just come here with malicious intent?
Really, damn it!

Sid was so angry that he wanted to call someone to arrest those people and chop them up.
However, having been in the top ranks for so long finally gave Sid some concentration and calmed him down. After thinking about it for a while, if these people were really chopped off,

Then the reputation that Chisha has worked so hard to build in the rainforest may collapse.

On the side, Wang Daoyi watched Sid calm down and nodded secretly, it's okay, at least he wasn't overwhelmed by anger.

Wang Daoyi knows Sid well too well,

Dedicated wholeheartedly to Wang Daoyi,
West Germany does not seek glory and wealth, and secondly, he does not seek long life. What he seeks is Wang Daoyi's gaze.
So, in Sid's eyes, you can scold him, beat him, even kill him,

But absolutely must not have any malice towards the Chisha tribe, towards Wang Daoyi,

Otherwise, you are provoking him.

And when Wang Daoyi looked at Sid holding back the anger in his heart and thinking calmly, he would show such a satisfied expression,
Restraining one's anger and thinking about problems calmly is a sign of growth.

"It seems that you have thought of some solutions." Seeing Sid calmly thinking and smiling again, Wang Daoyi knew that this guy must have come up with some solutions.

Sid quickly put away his smile, and said respectfully to Wang Daoyi: "I have some ideas, and I still need your consent."

"Oh, let's talk about it first."

Sid took a step forward and said in a low voice, "That's right. If they want to control our grain market, they must know our grain demand."

"However, at present, the tribe is constantly expanding outwards, and a large number of new settlements have been established. Except for a few high-level people, few people know how many people we have and how much food we need."

"So, in order to know our food demand, they will definitely inquire. At that time, I will send someone to disclose the information to them. However, the food demand in this news will increase several times, or even ten times."

"Whether they believe it or not, I will purchase grain according to this quantity, but the price will be kept to a minimum."

"If they give food, they will lose money when they transport it. If we buy low-priced food, we will make money."

Sid revealed his plan, which was indeed a very simple plan, and the only thing that could be considered a conspiracy was the false news revealed in the plan.

However, Wang Dao nodded, but did not question anything.

"Then do it according to your own ideas. Remember, no matter what the situation is, you have to collect enough food before you talk about it. Okay, you go to prepare."

Sid nodded, and after being 'affirmed' by Wang Daoyi, he left happily.

Watching Sid leave, Wang Daoyi shook his head slightly. Compared with Sid's initial routine of purchasing scholars, this plan is at least a bit more careful.

Wang Daoyi was not interested in whether West Germany's plan would succeed,
Whether it succeeds or fails, it doesn't matter anymore after the food plan of the Fools is discovered by Wang Daoyi.

Fools want to control Chisha's grain import and export, but they are not the only grain merchants in Sumi.

At this point, they cannot complete the blockade.

This is why Wang Daoyi felt that the doctor planned this matter, only a doctor would make such a random plan,
Because if it is a rich person, they will not do this at all. In other words, while the rich are doing it, they will definitely suppress other grain merchants in Sumeru City at the same time, and complete the unification (monopoly) of the industry.

And the doctor probably ordered, 'Go and control Chisha's food channel. 'In this case.

It’s not that the doctor doesn’t understand business, it’s that he doesn’t care at all, it’s best if he succeeds, and if he fails, he just fails.
When he did experiments, the number of failures far outnumbered the number of successes.

Rich people use business thinking to do things, planning, coordinating, executing, harvesting, and every step is calculated.

And a Ph.D. is purely a researcher with the mentality of a researcher, and he is also a researcher of the kind of macro-stocking. What he wants is various data during the experiment, not the final result.

Because he knew that according to his own practice, the result itself was uncontrollable.

To put it bluntly, just play!
But it's this "just play" mentality that makes the doctor extremely difficult to deal with.
-
On the other side, Sid came to the meeting room dedicated to receiving merchants, which was already full of merchants from all walks of life.
Not that today is a big day,

It’s just that after the news of Chisha’s opening of desert trade routes spread, many businessmen who couldn’t get along in the rainforest wanted to come here to have a look.
What, you said, why can't you get along in the rainforest?

Ha, then you have to ask the tax officer system established by the Holy Order.

Although the sages don't look down on the profits of those small chambers of commerce, the tax officials don't dislike these clear soup and water. For them, a bite counts as a bite.

Therefore, in the list drawn up by Elhaysen for Nacida, these are most of the tax officials, and they are all the objects to be cleaned up. They may not be guilty of death, but exile or imprisonment is indispensable.

Seeing Sid coming over, these businessmen immediately burst into noisy voices,

"Elder West Germany, Elder West Germany, our Chamber of Commerce's price is definitely the lowest."

"Elder Sid, are you satisfied with the gift I gave you last time? We still have it here, and I will send it to you in a while."

The voices of bidding for gifts are endless,
That's right, Sid received gifts, and he never accepted them secretly.

The same quality, within the same price range, if you give a gift, but others don't, then place an order at your home.

Well, not only the businessmen who came here know, even Wang Daoyi knows.

As for the gifts Sid received, he used some of them himself, and others he didn't use, so he just dumped them in Chisha's warehouse.

It can be called the second existence in the tribe that can earn extra money,

He used to be number one, but since Nicolaide came, he has become number two.

Go to the center of the crowd,

Sid stretched out his hand and pressed it falsely, indicating that everyone should be quiet.
Obviously, West Germany has prestige here, the noisy voice quickly died down, and the breathing became quiet.

Sid nodded in satisfaction, and then smiled kindly: "Everyone, the purchase volume this time will be double that of the previous one."

Before opening his mouth, he announced a big news,
The eyes of the businessmen present immediately flashed greedy light,

Some businessmen have already begun to calculate what kind of discount to maximize their profits.

Then they heard Sid say again: "However, this auction will be changed. In the previous auction, everyone kept shouting low prices, which hurt the peace. Therefore, this time, we will adopt a secret bidding method."

"Elder Sid, what kind of bidding method is secret bidding?" Someone raised his hand and asked immediately, as if it had been arranged in advance.

Sid smiled at the person who raised his hand: "That's a good question, my friend. What is secret bidding? That is, we will send you a special paper with the goods we purchased this time. List, you fill in the most suitable price in your mind, when the time comes, whoever is the cheapest and the quality is qualified, we will purchase it."

"Let's make it clear in advance that after we decide on a cooperative supplier this time, we will not change suppliers in the next six months unless the corresponding supplier raises the price."

After Sid finished speaking, he stopped talking and looked at everyone with a smile.

And the face of the businessman next to him kept changing, and he kept cursing Sid as a bastard in his heart, saying that he didn't want to hurt everyone's peace by bidding, so it turned out that he had prepared such a sinister method.

All the people present are old businessmen, so it is natural to see the malice in Sid's plan.
However, this is a conspiracy. Unless the businessmen present can unite, otherwise there is no solution.
But, can these people unite?

Most of them are competitors, and whoever dares to believe the other party's words deserves to go bankrupt.

Looking at each other, each businessman saw three big characters in the eyes of the people around him, that is - distrust.

Looking at these merchants silently, Sid showed an undisguised smile in his eyes, and then waved to the guards not far away: "Come, distribute the goods list to all the guests."

"Everyone, please pay attention. Each caravan has only one cargo list. After filling it out, please affix the corresponding caravan's seal so that we can find someone to check it. If you don't affix the seal, it will be regarded as giving up the auction."

"You don't have to worry about your opponent deliberately forging the goods list of your chamber of commerce. If the seals on the two goods lists are the same, we will send someone to verify with you."

"In addition, the lowest decimal place for pricing is two digits. That is to say, for a piece of goods, you can order 1.11 or 1.12 moras, but you are not allowed to price it at 1.115 moras. Everyone can understand this."

"Finally, we will take back the goods list in an hour. By the way, if there is anything to discuss, we have prepared more than 20 small tents outside, and there are sound-proof alchemy equipment inside. You can use them for free."

Looking at Sid, I have prepared everything for you,
These businessmen held the list of goods in their hands and walked out without saying a word. Judging by the momentum, it seemed that they did not go to discuss, but left the table angrily.

Sid didn't care about the emotions of these businessmen at all, and sat directly on the big chair in the tent, waiting for these people to come back and hand in the report.

Although Sid gave a full hour,

But in fact, after only 10 minutes passed, someone came to hand over the bill of goods. While handing over, he still stuffed the "souvenir" into West Germany's hands.

"They are all local products from my hometown. Please accept them, Elder West Germany."

It just so happens that Sid is not a polite person, no matter what you give, as long as you give it, he will accept it.

These businessmen did not understand West Germany, nor did they understand Chisha,
They regarded this place as the Holy Order, and thought that if Sid accepted the gift, it would help a little. Unfortunately, in Sid's view, I accepted it all, so it meant that I confiscated them all!
As for these businessmen going to report him for receiving gifts?
Ha, it doesn't matter, regarding the tribal people accepting bribes from outsiders, there is a manager in Chisha, um, his name is Sid.

As Chisha's chief steward, the major incident of people of this race being bribed by outsiders is of course judged by Sid himself.

The elder West Germany, who is both the defendant and the judge, is unscrupulous.

Soon, most of the merchants did not wait for an hour, but sent back the goods list within half an hour, and filled in the minimum profit price they had calculated.

After another ten minutes, more than half of the time passed, and the last cargo list was returned to Sid.
After beckoning, a guard ran over and took the cargo list from Sid's hand,
"Guests, next, our people will compare each cargo list and pick out each of the cheapest commodities. These selected ones will be Chisha's next cooperation partners."

"Of course, it doesn't matter if your Chamber of Commerce is not selected by us. Next, Chisha will gradually increase trade. If you are not selected this time, maybe next time it will be fine."

Many businessmen looked at Sid, with approving smiles on their faces, their teeth itching with hatred in their hearts,
As I said before, most of them are competitors,

Once the opponent has obtained a huge and stable order from Chisha and has a stable source of funds, then runs in other markets will inevitably come,

A stable trade that lasts for half a year is enough for the opponent to squeeze him in some fields for half a year, and those who do not get orders will either fight for capital with the opponent at a loss, or stop the loss and leave the market to the opponent.

No matter what kind of ending it is, these businessmen cannot accept it.

And this is exactly what West Germany wants to see. In order to keep the business in other regions, these people will inevitably push down the prices here to the limit they can bear.

"It may take a long time for the comparison. Chisha has prepared some pastries for everyone, please enjoy them as you like."

Saying that, a maid delivered plates of pastries to the camp,

However, how can merchants who are full of orders have the mood to eat?
As time passed bit by bit, the businessmen interpreted all kinds of life,
Some are still anxious, while others are slowly relaxing.

Some people moved their hands on those pastries that were placed there to look good.

Well, although it looks ordinary, smells ordinary, and tastes ordinary, but after being hungry for a long time, this pastry seems to be quite delicious.

After a while, a guard came in from the outside and handed a list to Sid.

Sid took the list, stood up, and immediately attracted everyone's attention.
In other words, the list in West Germany's hands has attracted everyone's attention.

"Ahem." Clearing his throat, Sid looked around and confirmed that everyone was looking at him before he began to report his name, "Adia Chamber of Commerce, cloth, the lowest price, 346.45 Mora a piece, are you sure?" ?”

As soon as West Germany's voice fell, someone raised his hand immediately: "Adia Chamber of Commerce confirms."

"Okay, sir, please stay and sign the contract after the auction is over." Sid nodded to the person who raised his hand, and then continued to look at the price list in his hand, "Brook Chamber of Commerce, ordinary adventurer medical aid package , one, 854.37 Mora, confirm?"

Under the stage, a young man showed joy and immediately raised his hand: "Brook Chamber of Commerce, confirm."

Sid nodded to him, didn't say much this time, and continued to report the name of the chamber of commerce on the list,

As the partners of the goods were confirmed one by one, some people in the audience were happy and some were worried, and there were all kinds of emotions in the world.

"The last item, food, the lowest price, Elchingen Chamber of Commerce, staple food, 4 moras per kilogram; vegetables, comprehensive calculation 8 moras per kilogram; meat, comprehensive calculation 14.35 moras per kilogram, confirm?"

Amid the uproar, the debtors of the Elchingen Chamber of Commerce raised their hands.

And the other businessmen looked at him with idiot eyes,
This price happened to be the base price in the Sumeru market. That is to say, every time people from the Elchingen Chamber of Commerce sold grain to the Chisha tribe, they would have to lose labor costs, transportation costs, and time costs.

This is a complete loss-making business.

Looking at the sneering eyes of other businessmen, the person in charge of the Elchingen Chamber of Commerce made the same sarcasm. His purpose of coming here was never to make money.

Only a little labor, transportation, and time cost, is that a thing for fools?

Before he could be happy in his heart for a while, he heard Sid announcing over there again: "This auction has ended, please stay and sign the contract with friends who have taken orders."

As a result, more than half of the businessmen who were originally full of tents left the table angrily.

The person in charge of the Elchingen Chamber of Commerce, like other people who took pictures of the order, watched these people leave with a smile. The reason for his smile was because he found that among these people, there were chambers of commerce that could provide a large amount of food.

Watching those potential plan spoilers leave, the head of the Elchingen Chamber of Commerce grinned and walked to Sid's side with a smile, waiting to sign the contract.

the other side,
After leaving the camp, some merchants were about to pack up their things and leave, but they were told that the elders of West Germany had asked them to meet at night.

Although they don't know what happened, but thinking of Elder Sid's behavior of never refusing gifts, these businessmen suddenly had a little hope in their hearts.

This time, it seems that there is still a chance to get another order from Chisha.

Therefore, these people who were going to leave immediately said some excuses about the exhaustion of the journey, and planned to rest in Chisha for a night.

That night,

Some people were quietly welcomed into a secret tent,
In the camp, the elder Sid, who used his dark pats to trick the merchants around during the day, was waiting for them.

When a group of people entered the camp, they looked at Sid without saying a word. They had to figure out what Sid was doing.

"Ahem, everyone must have noticed that you are all well-known big grain merchants in Xumi."

"In the dark auction during the day, although the price offered by the Elchingen Chamber of Commerce was the lowest, I was a little worried. I was afraid that they would break the contract after a short supply. At that time, the break contract fee would be small, and the blood relatives of the tribe Hungry stomachs are big, so I stayed with you and wanted to see if you are still willing to sell grain to Chisha?"

After listening to Sid's words, these businessmen glanced at each other. They originally thought that the Elchingen Chamber of Commerce was doing business at a loss. Now Sid suspects that they will not last long, which is quite normal.

As for whether they are still willing to sell grain to Chisha, just kidding, as long as they can make money, they will definitely be willing.

"Elder West Germany, it is naturally possible to sell grain, but if it is at the price of the Elchingen Chamber of Commerce, we cannot do it."

"Ha, don't worry, I won't let my friends suffer. I averaged the prices you quoted. Almost every item is 1-2 mora more expensive than the Elchingen Chamber of Commerce, right?"

Don't underestimate the amount of 1-2 Mora, converted to the size of Chisha, it is a very scary figure,

Calculated on average, there are currently 3.5 permanent residents in the Chisha Headquarters of the Fengrao Oasis. If each person is calculated as one kilogram of grain per day, that is 3.5 kilograms, or a profit of 3.5-7 moras.

And after one year, that's 1260-2520 million moras of profit. Moreover, this is only Chisha's headquarters. In the entire Great Chisha Sea, Chisha has countless branches, most of which need to be supported by the headquarters. Woolen cloth.

After one year, this profit is an extremely huge number.

Therefore, the legal leaders of the major caravans nodded repeatedly: "Yes, yes, yes, Elder West Germany, this is the lowest profit margin. Excluding manpower, transportation, time, and reporting damage, we can earn hard money without it."

"Haha." Sid smiled and said mmp in his heart. It's just hard work. Before Chisha was established, which desert tribe could come up with such a sum of money?

"Of course, it's hard work. Let's average it out. Just add 1.3 moras to the price of the Elchingen Chamber of Commerce. How about it?"

The people in charge of the Chamber of Commerce looked at each other, how did you average out this 1.3?
However, looking at Sid's smiling face, they felt that the remaining 0.2 was probably swallowed by this person.

They cursed Sid's greed in their hearts, but they didn't bargain any more, and nodded to Sid one after another: "Yeah, Elder Sid's calculation is good, and Elder Sid's calculation is wonderful."

The next step is to sign the contract, and then they each return to their respective tents with a smile on their faces.

When everyone is gone,
Only then did Sid support his head with his hands wearily,
"Another huge sum of money, alas, increase revenue and reduce expenditure, increase revenue and reduce expenditure."
