I wish everyone a happy Mid-Autumn Festival and a happy National Day,

With the attitude of giving it a try first regardless of whether it works or not, the young ship owner Anguilla quickly focused his attention on a businessman around fifty years old sitting on the stone platform on the left side of the pier.

Behind him, two tough men wearing black mail armor stood. A merchant ship owner was talking to a middle-aged businessman. The other wholesalers around him kept a certain distance from the middle-aged businessman. Occasionally, He would also glance at the angry eyes once or twice, but it was just a look. The middle-aged businessman glanced back indifferently, which immediately frightened all the wholesalers and turned their heads.

"Anguilla, you are not looking for the vampire Polov." Black Pokara looked at her partner with a worried look. Who in this port doesn't know that the vampire Polov is a smuggler walking in the dark? , there are rumors that he has some internal connections with the business alliance that dominates the trade on this continent. Many in-demand goods such as iron ore, weapons, food and other materials can be obtained through some channels. In the eyes of foreign merchants like Anguilla, Such a person is definitely a capable big shot.

"Other than someone like him who has seen the world, who do you think would recognize this?" Anguilla shook her teeth, held the falcon emblem ring tightly in her hand, looked upright, and spoke to her with pity. This rumored and terrifying big shot walked over

"Stop." A guard next to Polov blocked his way. Anguilla quickly introduced himself to the "big man" in his broken Ikadiva, "Dear Mr. Polov, I came from across the ocean. "

"I know you from Anguilla in Normandy, right?" Polov, who was sitting on the stone platform, showed his yellow teeth and his slender eyes shining, giving people a capable feeling.

"I have a trivial matter, and I hope I can get your help." Anguilla's heart beat rapidly involuntarily, and he squeezed the little thing nervously with his hands. Now he could only pray secretly in his heart, hoping that this little thing would really be like that. A little bit of effect, otherwise, I will definitely die in embarrassment

"I always care most about friends from far away"

Polov looked at the hesitant Anguilla. A hint of surprise first flashed across his face, and then he showed a warm smile. "If it's the price of this batch of goods, or if I can be of some help, I can offer a better price than those despicable ones." The wholesaler’s price is 10% higher,

"Is this true? I'm so grateful." Anguilla's eyes shone with excitement, and he almost jumped up with joy. He didn't expect that he would find such a generous buyer for himself by accident.

Now he believes more and more that the seemingly ordinary ring in his hand may be his lucky stone as the woman who gave it to him said.

"But I have a condition"

Polov changed his voice and smiled and said, "You also know that we are smugglers. The Nords' blockade has little impact on us. No matter how strict the blockade is, it cannot stop the smugglers, but we need stability." supply, otherwise, those regular customers will think that we are unreliable.

For those who eat this bowl of rice, credibility is the most important thing. What the customer buys at a high price is a satisfactory one, so you must guarantee that all future goods must be sold to me."

"Of course, people without integrity cannot gain any trust. I completely agree with this." Anguilla nodded with undisguised joy and immediately ordered the crew to stop unloading the cargo and bring all the cargo to Polov's cargo point.

"In this case, we will sign an agreement contract immediately"

Looking at the ecstatic Normandy businessman in front of him, Polov made a gesture to a subordinate behind him, and soon, two signed contracts appeared under their pens,

"Happy cooperation, we can be considered partners now." Polov smiled and stretched out a calloused hand to the young Anguilla, with a hint of undetectable cunning in his eyes.

"Happy cooperation, I will bring more people to trade with Mr. Polov." Anguilla was also excited and could not contain herself. If he could add 10% to the total price, that would be more than a thousand dazzling gold coins. , In the current situation of declining business, this kind of thing that does not decrease but increases is simply like talking in the ocean every night.

"What a naive guy," Polov said with emotion in his heart. "With this formal contract, even if the business alliance asks, he can have an excuse.

The value of this batch of goods is definitely higher than the price you pay. As long as these goods from foreign lands are shipped to Palavon, you can basically earn more than three times. Even if you encounter some small losses such as interrogation on the road, you will still make a profit. Within the range that can be tolerated, not to mention that in today's Germany, under the offensive of money, smugglers have already opened up a secret route, and there is almost no risk at all."

As a local leader of this port, he naturally pays special attention to these foreign merchants who come across the ocean with large quantities of goods. However, the Business Alliance has strict orders that smugglers are not allowed to trade with foreign merchants. Otherwise, it will not only be a matter of smuggling fines, but also He is wanted for execution. The reason why the Business Alliance issued such an order is

First, because most smugglers are professional smugglers who kill people, loot goods, and buy and sell by force, which can easily cause disputes. Second, because smugglers have low costs. The same goods will be one-third lower than the market price. 1. It squeezes the prices of normal merchants and disrupts the normal transaction order of the market.

Therefore, in the Falcon Dynasty, the crackdown on smuggling is very strict.

Not only does it have a military maritime patrol squadron, which will escort a smuggling cargo ship to the port once it is discovered, but there is also an anti-smuggling team composed of major chambers of commerce.

But in Tiha, which is far away from home, the environment here is relatively relaxed. It is still a war zone. The frequently mobilized navy has no intention of dealing with these smuggling ships. The power of the large chamber of commerce has only extended its tentacles here, responsible for the 10,000 men stationed on the land. The power of the five thousand Falcon Army is intertwined with the power of the Nord Army.

According to convention, the Falcon Dynasty does not implement commercial law in warring areas.

Therefore, the monitoring of smuggling is also very loose. However, in just two months, Tiha, the most important hub in the southern waters of Rohde, has become a gathering place for sea trade smugglers. The location here is so unique, ∷ ○ Just like drawing a support point on the center line of the southern coast that curves like the belly of a fish, it is very appropriate.

The natural advantage of being close to the sea in the central and southern parts of Salander greatly shortens the time for cargo to travel to the central area. If a cargo from a foreign land is to be disembarked from the seaport of Wikiya, it must pass through the mountainous and narrow Wikiya. The mountains are then transported to the three remote northern counties. It takes at least nearly a month to enter the densely populated central center of Palavon.

But if you disembark from Tiha in the south of Nord, it's a different story. It only takes about 10 days to enter the densely populated Palaven Plain through the narrow passage connecting the Dorok Mountains in the south. ,(To be continued)
