Pirate: I only come here for three things!
059 Buying and selling grain or cloth?
The fields were empty, and the snow seemed to have swept away all the excess on the ground. Hill ravines, ditch edges, towering branches...all the angular places have now become unusually smooth and rounded.
Not far ahead is the most prosperous place in Suzuo, and the essence of the entire area, Caishen Town.
As a place that will be destroyed by war in the future, it is still prosperous today.
On the outermost side are thick old city walls and towers. After passing through, there are clusters of red buildings in the city, and the buildings are different from each other.
Light yellow houses and pavilions rise one after another. In the middle, even if dusk is approaching, there is still a scene of busy traffic. On the huge square, the ground is carved with huge patterns of mountain gods.
This is a large open space where markets and markets are usually held. At this time, the place was crowded with a large number of people.
"What are you doing?" Fiona Mag was mixed in with the other two people. She curiously asked what was going on on the stage between them.
"He is the second largest religious leader in the country of Wano." What Mangtake said was the guy on the temporary wooden platform in the center of the square. This man was wearing a brocade robe and a white tall hat.
He stood on a high platform and preached loudly: "The Lord made the man sleep soundly, took one of his side bones, and sewed his flesh. He made a girl from the taken side bones and brought her to him."
"The man said, 'She is the bone of my bones and the flesh of my flesh. She can be called a woman because she comes from the man. So a man will leave his parents and glue his wife together, and they will become one flesh."
"Coming, coming!" someone shouted in a low voice from the crowd.
Soon there was a priest holding a wooden basin filled with the smallest amount of Bailey coins.
As he walked, he took out a handful of copper coins from the crowd and threw them out.
Although he tossed a lot of money, because they were all small-denomination coins, there was actually not a majority.
The effect is that the crowd below bends down.
Duanmu blended into the crowd and grabbed the hands of the two people around him to avoid being scattered by the crowd.
He looked at the old man on the wooden platform. In the prime of his life, he had a serious face and an elegant manner, and his facial features reflected his intelligence and affability.
The corners of his mouth are graceful and cautious, his hands are slender, and his forehead is powerful, giving him the image of a strong man who is good at learning. He was draped in a piece of clothing that looked like a flat gold pad, and his hair was long on his shoulders. The fluttering and black beard are connected together.
"How much is faith worth now?"
Involuntarily, the monk who ruined the temple appeared in his memory again. I didn't realize it at the time, but that person seemed to have some unexplainable meaning.
"What's wrong?" His companions began to ask Duanmu.
"Nothing, just in a daze. Mr. Mangkhut, please take me to where the local chamber of commerce is first?"
Although Duanmu has superior intelligence, in the final analysis, he has only experienced about ten days here since he was slapped by the big bear. In addition, he is still working non-stop to increase his per capita disposable income, which makes his grasp of information in some vague and unimportant directions somewhat vague.
In this God of Wealth Town, the location of the Chamber of Commerce is an unknown place for him.
"Okay, you two, please come this way."
The three of them squeezed through the crowd and walked towards the north. I saw that the houses on both sides of the road were getting more and more beautiful.
"In this God of Wealth Town, there has always been a saying that the north is noble and the south is cheap. And the place where our chamber of commerce is located is in the north of the town."
Speaking of the Chamber of Commerce, he felt quite proud.
After leading the two of them for more than twenty minutes, he finally stopped in front of a building.
Yanyanglou, a teahouse, is also the gathering place of the Wano Country Chamber of Commerce.
"Who are you?"
"Mangosteen in the Flower City."
"Oh, it's you." The boy at the door checked carefully and chose to let it go. "Remember to look for room 306. Someone is waiting for you there, ready to ask you where you disappeared during this time and why you didn't arrive at the specified time."
In front of the two people was a long and large room with more than a dozen red-lacquered square tables and sixty or seventy red-lacquered benches.
The first floor here is operating normally as a teahouse. Although it is getting a little late at this time, there are still many people here enjoying tea. Most of them are businessmen who are backlogged here. Because the local road is closed, they have no choice but to stay here. They are not willing to go out and spend more money, so they choose to spend the whole day in this place with a cup of tea and a friendly chat with their colleagues. And friendly communication means sharing each other's needs.
"Let me take two of you as members first."
The whole process is not troublesome, it can even be said to be simple to the core. After the guarantor Shanzhu signed, Duanmu received a sign.
"Because I am engaged in the cloth business, the only permissions I can give you are cloth. After opening this brand, you will carry out all actions registered in the Chamber of Commerce in the future. After they are successfully completed, the Chamber of Commerce I will take 10% of your total profit from the overall income, and as your introducer, I can also take 5% of the money, which is a small benefit for the introducer."
Duanmu nodded, he understood the fundamentals of this model.
Compared to the financial scams of the 21st century, the behavior here is actually more reasonable. At the same time, the scope of each aspect has been defined at the beginning. Whoever brings in the person basically means that he is responsible for you. The old brings the new. The archetypal repertoire of Wano.
At the same time, this also represents a monopoly, an absolute monopoly. The seniors can easily attack the backup, which is very easy.
Because Wano is an island country (it seems that all countries in the world of One Piece can be called island countries), in the days when Wano was at its peak in order to open up the world market, it was not just overseas samurai who were active. .
The merchants of Wano chose to concentrate their efforts on big things, and quickly developed their advantageous area - weapon forging, to the world's top level. And began to compete for the arms market with the Kingdom of Flowers.
Therefore, thanks to that period of take-off history, the merchants of the entire Wano Kingdom are in a completely different direction of development from other wealth owners in the world, especially the Tianlong people who represent the international traveling merchants. In the small country of Wano, many giant companies were born. They deployed a large number of overseas companies and chose to use a large number of countries in the New World as their cheap labor factories and as their export destinations. Make amazing profits from it.
At the peak of Wano Country, the price of a house in the Flower Capital could buy a street in Mariejoia, the holy land at the top of the Red Continent that intersects with the great waterway. The price of real estate on a street in the Flower City was the total expenditure of the world government's army for a year at that time.
However, with the rapid changes in the international situation, the defeat of the former maritime hegemon, the Kingdom of Giants, and the world entering a world government with one superpower and multiple powers, Wano fell into a strange circle.
The Kingdom of Wano calls the period between now and the glorious period of Wano the Lost Years.
