Thomas nodded and said, "If you have to say that, it's not bad."
Along the road, the group soon came to the "Yuanguo Supervisor".
The "servant" in front of the door held a long gun and stood upright with a solemn expression.
Entering Yuanguo Supervisor, in front of a tall house, Thomas led everyone to find the supervisor here, Bai Hehua.
Lily Hua is also wearing traditional Inazuma costumes, with bright and clear eyes under her long black hair.
Seeing Ying and others coming in front of her, Bai Hehua asked, "Have you completed the procedures for landing on the island? Are you going to go through the formalities for staying? The three of you?"
Paimon raised a small hand and gestured to the number three: "Three!"
Bai Hehua smiled for some reason after hearing this: "Okay, please pay the handling fee, 300 million moras."
Chen Fan prepared to take the money calmly.
Paimeng and Ying leaned back in shock: "300 million! Do you need 300 million to go through the formalities!"
Bai Hehua took it for granted: "Well, one million is 100 million, so it's 300 million. Don't worry, I didn't make a mistake."
Paimon shook his head again and again: "It's not a question of whether the calculation is wrong or not... um..."
Thomas immediately jumped out, made a rescue to the crowd, and smiled at Bai Hehua: "Hahaha...these two are my friends, take a look, do I still look familiar?"
Bai Hehua looked at Thomas, with a relaxed expression on his face: "It's you, Mr. Thomas. For your sake, 40 Mora will be fine."
Ying's face darkened: "Even so, 40 moras are still..."
At this time, Chen Fan was calm again, ready to pay.
Well, the king's wealth is inexhaustible.
Thomas took the first step: "Thank you so much, Lily, but in my opinion, the handling fee... six hundred moras is about the same, I will pay for them, and I will treat you to a meal, how about it?"
· · · · · · · · · · · · · · · · · · · · · · · · · · · · · · · · · · · · · · · · · · ·??????????
Paimon was shocked immediately: "Is there still such a bargain! Anyway, it's too..."
"Okay." What was even more surprising was that Bai Hehua actually agreed: "Then rely on Mr. Ma. I will register."
After that, I started looking for the registration form.
Ying: "Ah, this..."
Paimon's eyes seemed to shrink into two peas:?
Chen Fan retracted his hand that was about to take the money.
Bai Hehua turned around and covered her heartbeating chest: Woohoo! !That "foreigner" little brother is so cute!Although it's for Thomas's sake, but such a handsome and soft cutie, if you charge him so much money, I feel that I will be uneasy for the rest of my life...
...... 0 ......
Soon, everyone successfully completed the residency procedures at the Yuanguo Supervision Department.
When he was leaving, Paimon still couldn't believe what was happening before his eyes: "Hey... 200 million can be bargained down to [-]. Is there something wrong with Daowife's concept of money!"
Chen Fan folded his hands: "This view of money reminds me of an acquaintance..."
Ying knew who Chen Fan was talking about, but still couldn't help complaining: "Ahem, I see that you are asking for money just now, so you don't have the right to talk about him."
Chen Fan touched his head and smiled slightly, but he didn't think it mattered.
Seeing this scene, Ying was almost fainted by Chen Fanmeng, and hurriedly turned to Thomas and asked, "Is there something hidden in this?"
Thomas spread his hands and smiled: "Hehe, there is nothing to make a fuss about, the "handling fee" itself is just a private name. "
"For the supervision of Yuanguo Supervisory Division, no matter how much handling fee is paid, it will directly fall into their pockets. It's just a matter of earning more and earning less."
As he spoke, he folded his hands, with a malicious look on his face: "In case you meet some wealthy foreign businessman who is unfortunately stranded here, and is honest and obedient..."
Paimeng suddenly realized, and with a smirk, he rubbed his head against Chen Fan's cheek: "You can hit him a lot!"
.................................and.
Chapter 210 Nine: Isn't this bullying honest people?
Chapter 210 Nine: Isn't this bullying honest people?
Chen Fan coughed twice. Anyway, in his eyes, there is no difference between one mana and three million mana.
Thomas folded his hands and said, "At this time, the importance of having a local friend is reflected."
"Isn't this purely bullying foreigners..." Ying couldn't help complaining: "Is there no one to resist?"
Thomas seems to be used to such things: "Well, but after all, you are a stranger in a foreign land, and under the current situation where the rice wife locks the country, there is really no good way."
"The most foreign businessmen can do is to "huddle together for warmth", which is the origin of the "Wan Guo Chamber of Commerce" on the outlying islands. "
After hearing this, Chen Fan asked, "Is it a chamber of commerce established by foreigners themselves?"
Thomas nodded and said, "That's right. In addition to making profits, the chamber of commerce also takes care of regulating, organizing, and assisting foreigners living in Daozuma to survive "[-]". It can be said that it is a chamber of commerce that is simultaneously studying business and survival."
Hearing how difficult it is for foreigners to live in Daozu, he felt melancholy: "In this case, then our chance to meet General Lei Dian..."
Paimon sighed and also looked a bit sad: "Yeah, I feel that it is already difficult for foreigners to survive in Daoqi."
Thomas has a new understanding of Ying and the others: "Is this the purpose of your trip? It turns out that, in terms of your identities, it is indeed a "magnificent" goal. "
"After all, General Thunder and Lightning is the most extraordinary and noble existence, a god that all living beings can only look up to."
Seeing Yin's embarrassment, Chen Fan waved his hand and said, "Even if this is the case, we have to find a way!"
"..." Thomas pondered: "I originally wanted to say that encounters in this world are always unpredictable. Maybe you will run into General Thunderbolt on a certain afternoon full of wine and food..."
Paimon hugged her tiny arm: "Well...how low is the probability of the kind of thing you're talking about..."
At this time, Thomas saw that everyone was in a dilemma, so he went all out: "Okay, I can tell you frankly, I have a way to introduce you to General Thunder."
Chen Fan said "Oh?"
Paimon was even more excited and amplified his voice: "Really! The local snakes on outlying islands actually have such connections!"
Thomas scratched his head and thought for a while, "Well... hehe, there will always be a way to mobilize all resources. But before that... access is also a very expensive business, you understand?"
This time, Chen Fan didn't make any gesture of asking for money.
Paimon put his hands on his hips: "You do this too!"
Thomas laughed loudly: "Hahaha, the business I mentioned didn't mean that you should pay Mora. It should be said that no one has to pay any price. It's just... If you want to get what you want, you must first Help out with some other people's troubles."
"Finding a way to make everyone happy is what I do."
But Paimon didn't seem to agree with him: "It's nice to say, I understand, you want to be a middleman to earn favors!"
Ying suddenly realized: "No wonder you can become a local snake."
Chen Fan and we held hands together, and said calmly, "Tell me, what task do we have to do?"
Thomas slapped his head: "Hey...why do I feel like I suddenly became a villain in your eyes. Forget it, never mind."
Then he began to talk to everyone about the business: "The situation is like this. As I said before, the members of the Chamber of Commerce of All Nations have been in a difficult situation of survival. Recently, some situations seem to have intensified. Go and see what can be used. .”
"The name of the president of the chamber of commerce is Jiulisu, he is my good friend. I will wait for you here first."
"Then..." After all, Thomas still needs to help, and now Ying has no choice but to help each other: "We will come as we go."
In this way, Thomas was waiting in front of the "Guardian of Yuanguo", waiting for everyone to deal with the affairs of the Chamber of Commerce of All Nations.
Go down the stone steps between the houses on the outlying island, and you will come to a small square surrounded by giant maple trees with wooden fences.
Soon you can see the building of the Chamber of Commerce of All Nations on the side of the square.
In front of the Chamber of Commerce of All Nations, there stood a middle-aged foreign businessman dressed as Monde.
According to Thomas's previous description, this person is the president of the Chamber of Commerce, Long Risu.
Seeing Chen Fan and the others approaching, Jiu Lixu thought they were in some trouble, and asked, "Oh? My friend, are you here to seek the protection of the Chamber of Commerce of All Nations? Could it be that Yuanguo Supervisor made you bleed a lot?" gone?"
Ying sighed: "A little bit..."
After hearing this, Jiu Lixu breathed a sigh of relief for his mother: "That's good, that's good, alas...don't lose all your capital as soon as you come up."
Chen Fan had the feeling that this person was talking about himself.
At this time, Paimon asked kindly: "Is there any difficulty in the chamber of commerce recently?"
Jiulixu smiled wryly and shook his head: "Difficulties... being in a dilemma, bumping into walls everywhere, I'm already used to it..."
Seeing the haggard appearance of this middle-aged man, Chen Fan sighed: "The lock-up order is really difficult for everyone from abroad."
Jiu Lixu said to Chen Fan: "The root of the problem is not the lock-up order. Even if the scope of activities is restricted, life can be lived well."
At this time, his gaze became sharper, with a lot of anger in it: "The one who really oppresses us foreign businessmen is..."
Speaking of this, Jiuli paused, looked around again, and continued to speak after making sure that no one was eavesdropping: "...It is the guy who is determined to pursue those mercenaries."
Paimon nodded, and waved a finger in the air: "Well, it's the one that manages outlying islands among the three orders, I remember."
Jiu Lixu nodded: "That's right, high taxes, unreasonable rules and regulations, these are not the worst things..."
"Oh? Is there anything worse than these?" Chen Fan asked Jiu Lixu.
Jiu Lixu's face was full of helplessness, with a bit of vicissitudes mixed in his wrinkles: "The worst thing is that during this period of time, the new tax law has just been issued, and the form of tax that needs to be paid has changed from Mora to a kind called "crystallized bone marrow." "The goods. "
With his hands behind his back, Paimon tilted his head slightly: "What is 'Crystalized Bone Marrow'? "
Jiu Lixu sighed again: "Before the decree was promulgated on 3.5, most of the merchants in the Chamber of Commerce had never heard of this kind of goods, until an old merchant from Liyue recognized that this was the one he had gone to when he was young. materials that have been transported across the country.”
While talking, Jiu Lisu clasped his hands with a complaining look on his face: "Even though we were very reluctant, everyone went to collect the "Crystalized Bone Marrow" and paid it as taxes. "
His tone became more and more excited: "But later I found out that this is nothing more than drinking poison to quench thirst. As the demand for paying taxes increases, the price of external "crystallized bone marrow" is also rising..."
................................
Chapter 220: The ungrateful boy!Trouble arose.
Chapter 220: The ungrateful boy!Trouble arose.
Jiu Lixu frowned tightly at this time: "Until later, there was only one merchant who had stock, and no other place could buy it..."
Chen Fan nodded, and had already heard the mystery: "Well... Generally speaking, this kind of situation is called monopoly, right?"
Jiu Lixu looked at Chen Fan, was shocked by his peerless handsome face, and expressed admiration in his tone: "You understand well. So the merchant kept raising the price, but due to the pressure of the law, we had to buy it again." ..."
"The result of repeated vicious circles is that the tax has almost exceeded our profit... If this continues..."
Paimon was also a little angry and said, "This is really deceiving."
Ying also felt aggrieved: "Can't you discuss it with the person who is responsible for the assignment?"
Jiu Lixu waved his hand and said to Ying: "We have also tried to communicate with Kanding to implement the law...but this land is full of thunder. Who can hear the voices of us businessmen in desperate situations? ..."
The haggard look on Jiulixu's face deepened, and he regretted his behavior of coming to Dao's wife to do business: "Alas, Fontaine, Fontaine, my hometown...I miss you so much..."
Chen Fan thought that he was originally from Fontaine, but he thought he was from Mond.
In Paimeng's heart, some foreign businessmen complained about Jiuli: "There is such a thing, there is no way for people to survive, Ying, Chen Fan, what do you think?"
Ying thought for a while, and said, "Try trying to persuade Kan Ding to follow through with all your strength?"
"It's useless." Chen Fan folded his hands and shook his head, "I really think there must be something wrong with that businessman."
Hearing what Chen Fan said, Jiulisu also seemed to smell something: "Is that businessman? Actually, I used to have contacts with him, but later he cut off contact with us. I don't know where his source of goods comes from. here."
Paimon rubbed his chin and thought about it: "Hmm... It's really unreasonable to look at it this way. How can we find him? Let's try to see if we can get some information."
When Jiulixu heard this, his eyes lit up: "Oh~! This is a good idea. As people outside the Chamber of Commerce and new foreigners on the island, he should relax his vigilance."
After finishing speaking, he looked into the distance again, "That man's name is Werner. I remember that if you want to find him, you should go to the tree in the residential area by the sea. That's where we usually meet him."
"Werner, right?" Chen Fan nodded, "Understood, leave it to us."
When Jiulixu heard what Chen Fan said, he grabbed his hands excitedly: "I am very grateful. If you have nowhere to go, you can consider coming to our Chamber of Commerce."
"Well," Chen Fan nodded with a smile, and left Jurisu for now, looking for the merchant who sells crystallized bone marrow, Werner.
According to Gurishu, the three of them left the residential area and came to the seaside behind a maple forest on an outlying island.
From a distance, I saw only a young man standing under a maple tree by the sea. There was a big frame beside him, which was filled with purple crystals, and there were white lines on those crystals. It seems to contain some kind of power.
When Werner saw Chen Fan and Ying walking towards him, he immediately became a little vigilant: "Huh? A face I haven't seen before, new here?"
Ying snorted: "I'm a local snake on an outlying island, and you don't even know me?"
Werner couldn't help laughing: "Haha, what a joke, there is no one who calls himself a local snake, and it is 800 years too early to fool me. So, what do you want to find me for?"
Chen Fan was at the side, looking at the big box filled with crystallized bone marrow: "About your source of supply..."
