Blessing from the goddess at the beginning, technology VS magic

After the Wu Group's carriage entered Liming City, they were greeted by buildings tens of meters high. The entire city looked different from other places. The roads were very wide. It should be said that they were a bit too wide, with only 12 vehicles allowed to pass. The carriages are more than adequate. The buildings seem to be placed by the hands of gods and appear to be very regular.

"This place is not simple," Wu Aoxue said.

Soon they were led by administrative staff into the government building in the city center. The person in charge of receiving the Wu Group was Pearl. According to the old tradition, accommodation should be arranged first. Today's Liming City no longer even has a tavern like before. After the trade with the West Bay Federation was opened, Rhett also realized that many businessmen would come here in the future, so he built There are many hotels for business people to stay.

We’ll have a meal later when we have a place to stay.

Wu Wei wiped his mouth after eating and said with satisfaction: "The food here is pretty good, almost as good as the chefs in our Wu Group."

Wu Aoxue also believed more and more that the guess in her heart was correct.

After eating, they were taken to the parliament hall of the government building, but there was a slight mistake when entering the building. More than 100 people from the Wu Group were stopped by the people at the door:

"No armed persons entering the building"

Logically speaking, this is a normal thing. Is it possible that the Wu Group still brings guards when they visit the royal family? But this time it was a test. Wu Wei and the guard argued for a long time without seeing each other relent. It seemed that this newly established country was not a soft persimmon.

"Okay, just a few of us can go in, and the others can wait outside," Wu Aoxue said, pointing to a few other people.

When they entered the parliament hall and found a woman sitting in the middle, Wu Aoxue asked sarcastically:

"I heard that the king of your country should be a man. Why doesn't he dare to come?"

Pearl did not get angry: "Miss, you may not know the system of our country. We are different from other countries. We do not have a king. His Highness Rhett is only the current leader. Future leaders will be promoted through elections." Yes, so everyone in our country performs their own duties. I am here to be responsible for business negotiations, and His Highness Rhett is very busy, and he doesn’t have time to come even if he wants to."

"Hmph! Call him over, we will only talk to him," Wu Wei said loudly.

"If you insist on this, then there will be nothing to talk about." After saying that, Pearl stood up and started packing her things.

"Aren't you afraid that we will make it impossible to sell your goods, or raise the tariffs on your goods? In short, the Wu Group has a hundred ways to deal with you. This negotiation is the opportunity we give you," Wu Weizhong said with a smile.

Pearl did not stop what he was doing and continued: "If you really wanted to do this, you wouldn't negotiate with us, right?"

This is indeed the case. The Wu Group has long discovered that someone is selling glass and soap at ultra-low prices, but their quality cannot match the top products of the Wu Group, so most people think that this is another person who does not know the heights of the world. The little bastard is challenging the group. They won't be able to sustain this kind of low-price sale for long.

But more than a year later, they are still selling at low prices. This is a problem. The reason why the Wu Group has the power and achievements it has today is to bribe the powerful class with exquisite glass products that others cannot make. Businessmen sometimes also give up certain harvest channels so that they can sell to powerful people in other countries, benefiting both parties.

If the Wu Group is in other countries, then they can restrict Rede's products by raising tariffs, because the powerful don't like civilians using the same things as them. It's a pity that they are in the West Bay Federation, which is a business kingdom. The powerful sometimes do small business, and the merchants have a relatively high status. In order to tie them to the same boat as himself, Rhett has asked Kanter to stop Sell ​​glass and then supply large quantities of it to businessmen and dignitaries in the West Bay Federation, letting them act as second-tier dealers to sell to other countries.

When the Wu Group found out about this, they had no choice but to raise tariffs, because this would anger all the nobles and businessmen who had interests in dealing with Red. So they chose to negotiate after inquiring about the source of this product for a long time.

Helpless, Wu Aoxue can only choose to sit down and negotiate with Pearl: "Please wait a moment, we are willing to sit down and negotiate."

Wu Wei felt that this was very inappropriate, so he said, "Sister, aren't you letting them take advantage of you?"

Wu Aoxue really felt that his younger brother was too stupid. The reason why he brought him with him this time was mainly because his family asked him to exercise. Another function was to play bad guy. He did really well before, but now it's hard to give him. What could he explain? All he could say was: "Shut up."

When Pearl heard the other party surrendering, he made a gesture of invitation. After the other party sat down, Pearl took his seat again. Wu Aoxue got straight to the point:

"What do you want?"

"We don't want anything, we are just doing business normally."

"Okay, let me put it another way, why should we target the Wu Group?"

"As I said, this is just normal business competition."

Wu Aoxue found it funny and irritating: "Normal business competition? Although I don't know where you got the production technology, you are crazy about lowering the price, even at the expense of losing money to suppress us. This is normal competition."

"Losing money?" Pearl also smiled and said: "We did not lose money. We made a lot of money. Why do you think we lost money? As for the production technology, it was invented by our Highness. Our technology is better than yours." More advanced!"

"Nonsense! The Wu Group has been in business for hundreds of years! Is your technology better than ours?" Wu Wei said.

"If you don't believe it, we can show you and make sure you are convinced, but what good will this do to us?"

Wu Aoxue said: "If it is really advanced than us, maybe we can cooperate."

"cooperate?"

"We have contacts with the top leaders of each kingdom and can provide you with some channels."

"Maybe we can contact them without your channels."

Wu Wei felt humiliated and shouted: "Don't be so shameless! Who can't tell lies!"

"Shut up! Don't be rude!" Wu Aoxue scolded, and then said to Pearl: "My brother is a bit ignorant, but we have never seen the advanced technology you talk about with our own eyes, and this negotiation will not be easy."

Pearl's expression did not change. This was given to her by Rhett. Do not lose etiquette at any time, and she could also see that the two of them were obviously singing a double act. The word double act was also spoken by Rhett. , and then Pearl said with a smile: "Then please come with me to have a look, so that we can conduct the next negotiations."

"Thank you," Wu Aoxue said.
