Chapter 1478 Interesting Woman
Game time AM06:19
Night-free District, No. 16 Bella Street [Imelda Chamber of Commerce] third floor
Imei didn’t sleep all night Ms. Dai was sitting at the table with her fingers crossed. At first glance, she looked as oppressive as Commander Ikari, who gained weight in his later years and transformed after being bitten by a toad a few times.
She was waiting for news, bad news that she didn’t know would come.
This sounds ridiculous at first glance, but there is some rationality that is not humane to outsiders.
Ms. Imeldai is a successful businessman, even a very successful businessman. The existence of the [Imeldai] Chamber of Commerce itself is the best proof of this.
First of all, we must admit that the scale of this chamber of commerce is not large. Although it is involved in many businesses and has a lot of monthly turnover, it is compared with most large chambers of commerce that can gain a foothold in the Free City. , [Imelda] is definitely the third-rate among the third-rate, the kind that is completely incapable of being used.
[Imelda] The Chamber of Commerce is unique in one thing - it is the first generation chamber of commerce.
The meaning of the first generation means that this chamber of commerce has not experienced changes, inheritance, etc., and started from scratch without any foundation. The founder not only did not abdicate but even continued to fight on the front line.
In the World of Innocence, this is a period that every chamber of commerce has experienced, and it also represents the most difficult and darkest period for most chambers of commerce.
The reason is very simple and easy to understand. Because it is the first generation, it does not have enough background, enough connections, enough credibility, enough funds, and enough experience.
And these things that the first generation lacked happened to be the basic elements for a chamber of commerce to become bigger and stronger.
So for the vast majority of businessmen, the first generation, and even the following generations, are a process of dormancy and accumulation. They will be satisfied if they can maintain a balance of income and expenditure or make a small amount of money. There is no such thing as ambition.
Fiyalee Graham can play so big, Mo Tan can take the soda business as she wants. In addition to her being very courageous and courageous, what’s more important is that she I have this capital in hand.
It is true that Saint Wealth has already had many businesses that have left the Church of Wealth, and there are also many properties that she is only responsible for herself, but the premise of all this is the help provided by the church when Her Highness first started doing business.
These help are the accumulation and precipitation of the Wealth Church over thousands of years. They are the channels and resources that others dream of, and the bosses that others may not be able to see once after working hard all their lives. To Feiyali back then, it was so Just pick whatever you want, if it doesn't fit you have to replace it.
This is accumulation!
This accumulation, coupled with Fiyali's own talents, has created the increasingly unfathomable Holy Lady, making her worthy of being treated with caution even if she is no longer attached to the Church of Wealth. , dare not underestimate it.
But this Mrs. Imelda is different. She started from scratch and built up her current business step by step. Although the current [Imelda Chamber of Commerce] is far inferior to that saint. Any property in the hands of His Highness, but she does not have the support of the Wealth Sect.
To be honest, if Fiyali was put in Imelda's position, she...
Well, she might also do something great. This is the difference between ordinary people and monsters.
In short, after studying the development history of Mrs. Imelda and the [Imeldai Chamber of Commerce] for more than forty years, Mo Tan easily came to a conclusion, that is, this is the most charming and beautiful woman in the past. The lady who was possessed by a vixen, and now has a face as sinister as a toad spirit, is a very bold and cautious speculator.
She is said to be cautious because Ms. Imelda’s business style is extremely cautious, and her risk management and control is almost meticulous to the point of madness. In other words, she is absolutely perfect in some ordinary or long-term businesses. He will not fight an uncertain battle. No matter how many immediate benefits there are, as long as there is just a little more risk, he will choose to give up without hesitation.
She is bold because when certain conditions come together, Imelda will immediately change her usual cautious style and throw down all her chips in a bankrupt manner, just like a red-eyed woman. gambler.
What interests Mo Tan is that from her twenties to sixty-nine, Imelda gambled a total of seven times, and the probability of winning in these seven gambles was surprisingly 100%!
The fundamental reason why [Imelda Chamber of Commerce] has been able to develop to the scale it is today is because of those seven gambles that all resulted in victory.
Having played seven life-and-death games in more than forty years, and winning every time, this seems not to be a cause for alarm, but after careful consideration, it is enough to attract Mo Tan's attention.
Although these so-called 'life and death games' are not large in scale from an objective point of view. For example, Imelda's first big gamble in Zai only brought her an income of less than one thousand gold coins, but for As far as the parties concerned are concerned, it is all without reservation.
Even if the bet wins, those huge sums of money for Imelda may not be worth mentioning in the eyes of others. If the bet loses, she will lose everything in an instant.
In the end, she had the last laugh. Even if she didn't have the last laugh, at least she had the last laugh.
This aroused Mo Tan’s curiosity, so he mobilized various forces to conduct an extremely detailed investigation of the [Imelda Chamber of Commerce] and Mrs. Imelda, and came to an interesting conclusion——< br>
As a businessman, she is excellent, but only excellent.
But as a speculator, Imelda is a complete genius. She seems to be born knowing which risks should be taken and which risks should not be taken. Whenever she is about to make a big gamble, she will Based on his cautious character, he calculates all factors to the limit. In the eyes of others, this kind of thing is completely the behavior of a mediocre person.
In the eyes of many people, the real speculative geniuses are those with strong luck, keen sense of smell, and solid foundation. Their unreasonable intuition and ability to turn things into clouds are the key to wonderful fortune. The most perfect interpretation of the word.
Those who continue to collect evidence, analyze, investigate, test, and evaluate actually have little status in the eyes of mainstream speculators. The reason is that in the eyes of others, this level of work can be done by just one person. The difference between the former is like 'getting perfect scores in the weekly elementary school test' and 'getting a medal in the International Mathematical Olympiad'. Just comparing them is ridiculous enough.
But what if there is a person who has countless characteristics including luck, intuition, acumen, etc., but is obsessed with calculating basic factors?
‘Then her speculative price-performance ratio among the middle and lower classes will be improved to an extremely terrifying level. ’
This is Mo Tan’s evaluation of Mrs. Imelda.
While coming to this conclusion, Mo Tan also said this - ‘I really want to get this interesting woman~’
As a result, Mrs. Imelda, who was only noticed by Mo Tan because she was entrenched in Bella Street, turned into an "interesting woman" without even knowing it, and returned to the Free City with Mo Tan. received special attention that night.
For example, certain signals and hints that kept her awake all night.
And...a misleading that is so logical and outrageous.
"President!"
One of the orphans adopted by Imelda when she was young, the dwarf man 'Ah Qi' with a beard so long that it could be used to mop the floor rushed in and said in a voiceless voice: "Oh no, something big happened!"
"Say."
Imelda, who didn't show any surprise, just twitched her lips. This seemingly indifferent attitude immediately gave Ah Qi great confidence.
"Yes, President." The dwarf man quickly walked to Imelda's side, handed the two pieces of parchment with scrawled writing to the latter, and said in a deep voice: "Just an hour ago, we Two hundred boxes of [Thunder Perch], three tons of [Star Gold], and one thousand sets of [Intermediate Enchantment Scrolls] that were supposed to be shipped to the west were detained, just..."
< br>"The Dantes Territory of the Violet Empire."
Imelda, who lowered her eyes and glanced at the two parchments in her hand, interrupted Ah Qi lightly. After the latter fell silent, she read the two reports that were rushed to her hands several times, revealing a picture full of Wrinkled smile: "I didn't expect it... Although I had already anticipated the possibility of an accident, I didn't expect that it was not the branch of the Principality of Scaran, but the cargo that just left here at noon the day before yesterday. This is really... strange It's scary."
The pale Ah Qi swallowed hard and asked dryly: "President...this...what is this..."
" A punishment...or a warning."
Imelda put down the report in her hand and sighed helplessly: "You should remember that I talked to a person who claimed to be a senior adviser to the Kaivos family last night. The woman met and she proposed a deal to me, but I refused."
Ah Qi was stunned for a moment and asked hurriedly: "What deal? Does it have anything to do with the seizure of our goods? ? ”
"Theoretically, it shouldn't matter, but if I really think it doesn't matter, I'd be a fool."
Imelda stood up and dragged her bloated body back and forth in front of the recliner, walking as she did. He said calmly: "The content of the deal is that they will let us pay 20% less tax in the Principality of Skarlan in the middle of the continent, the Anka Market in the northwest continent, and the southern part of the Silver Wing Alliance in the southwest continent. The specific amount is about thirty. There are about ten kinds of heavy taxes, including tariffs. In addition, we are also willing to give us the three-year right to use a medium-sized cargo ship in the pan-dwarf business circle. The southwest channel passes through the capital of the Silver Wing Alliance, Grid The capital of the Finnish Dynasty, the Chauvin Empire and the Palmyra Free Trade Zone"
"What!"
As a senior member of the Chamber of Commerce, Ah Qi sat down immediately after hearing this. On the ground, he asked with wide eyes: "They are willing to give such conditions, what exactly do they want us to do?!"
Obviously, Ah Qi, who is relatively knowledgeable, has already seen the problem. The problem is that the other party's bargaining chip is really too rich, so thick that it makes people tremble when they hear it. Not only is there no desire at all, but there is even a feeling of fear.
Needless to say, he's on the first level.
"They want me to apply to join the Bella Street Committee through Lesa Kevos this afternoon."
Imelda turned her head and glanced, and added: "And... ...There is no chance of cooperation in the future?”
Ah Qi, who was already confused, looked even more confused and said in shock: “No?”
“No.”< br>
Imelda nodded and then asked: "What do you think?"
"I think you are crazy!"
Because Imelda has always been her mother, so Ah Qi spoke without any hesitation, and shouted loudly: "Doesn't this mean giving us money for nothing! All over 30 kinds of taxes have been cut by 20%, including the Silver Wings. For a big company like the Alliance and Anka Market, the only condition is that you agree to join the street committee and have the opportunity to cooperate. This is a great thing!”
“Not necessarily”
After listening to Ah Qi’s speech on the first floor, Imelda shook her head with some disappointment: “You are too naive.”
"Ah? Are they lying to us? That's right. The Kaivos family may not be as powerful as us. How could they do that..."
"No, I think that Catherine yesterday is probably Jiu is telling the truth."
"Huh? Why don't you agree?"
"Of course it's because the other party's request is too much."
"What's too much? We joined the street committee before, didn't we just want peace? That Kaivos didn't let us withdraw, I don't see what's wrong..."
"It's too low."
"Huh?"
"There is never free food in this world. If there is, it is most likely to be poisonous."
Imelda sat back on the recliner and said quietly: "You don't really think that even though they have annexed the Bloodwing family, they are still only a third-rate force. The Bloodwing family can get this kind of conditions. Yes ? Haha, now that I think about it, it is a very outrageous thing that the weak Kaivos family can disintegrate the Bloodwing family overnight. "
Ah Qi's head is a little bit behind. , so he simply stopped asking. After all, this dear friend knew very well that the president in front of him, who was almost like his own mother, was not so much explaining to himself, but using this conversation to organize his thoughts.
"Think about it carefully, what kind of power can make Anka Bazaar, the Principality of Scaran and the Silver Wing Alliance give face at the same time."
Imelda gently massaged the lines on her forehead. , while sneering: "Do you really think they want me, a small street committee member, to agree to some bullshit application? Nonsense, what they want is our entire chamber of commerce!"
Reluctantly follow. Ah Qi, who was in charge of the other party, was sweating on his head at that time, and said in shock: "Our entire chamber of commerce!?"
"Yes, if we accept their conditions, we will never tax those few dollars. I turned a blind eye by ordering a very low cake, but we don’t have a suitable channel to operate it.”
Imelda took a breath and gritted her teeth: “And when the time comes, the other party who has obtained our ‘cooperation’ promise will do so. It is completely logical to take up the key projects of the Chamber of Commerce for at least the next ten years!”
"Real or false..."
"Before you sent these two pieces of paper, it might have been fake, but now...I am certain that it is real!"
< br>“Uh!”
“It’s okay to give face to the three parties just mentioned, but they all have such great influence in the Violet Empire!”
