Chapter 239 Acquisition Plan
There is an extremely spacious and magnificent hall inside Qiusuo Tongtu, covering an area of thousands of square meters.
With a floor height of more than 9 meters, a large number of load-bearing columns, carved beams and painted pillars, the entire building is filled with a solemn and sacred atmosphere.
Sam subconsciously walked softly when he walked into it.
Although there are no spectacular sculptures or precious treasures inside the building, the imposing structure alone can give people a strong shock.
Deep in the hall is a "door" that looks like it leads to a misty valley. There are two uniformed clerks stationed at the door.
When Sam tried to go over to see what was going on, he was politely stopped by the other party.
"Sorry, for your safety, only believers of the Lord can enter the back area."
"To participate in the study of the doctrine of seeking knowledge, please go to the second floor."
"The assessment will be held at midnight on Fire Sunday. If you want to participate, please arrive at the basement in advance."
Sam scratched his head: "Okay, got it."
The same goes for churches of other gods. Only limited areas in the church are open to outsiders.
The Church of Seeking Knowledge does not exist in the strict sense of the word, but Seeking the Path gave Sam the feeling of being a church that spreads and promotes doctrines.
The only thing that puzzled him was that when the other party tried to dissuade him, he said "for his safety."
"Is there any danger inside?"
Unable to immediately find out the truth about "resurrection", Sam hesitated.
After all, he saw with his own eyes that Brandon came out of here. Whether it was a magical spell or a blessing, it must have something to do with the God of Knowledge.
Since it is related to this mysterious god, there should be some clues in the teachings, right?
Still the same sentence.
Just because he has learned the teachings of the other party does not mean that he has to devote his faith!
Didn’t they also say it when they introduced me? It’s not enough to just study the teachings, you also have to accept assessments.
He tried to learn it first.
Just understand a little bit and never get too involved!
……
at the same time.
Ceylon City.
Several weapons and armor merchants who formed the "Business Alliance" gathered together again after a few days.
Not only did the worry on everyone's brows not lighten, it actually became more intense.
"How's the situation?"
"It's worse."
"I haven't seen anyone selling ultra-low-priced equipment at the border defense camp anymore, but... I don't know why, but our goods still can't be sold!"
"And I heard that the number of adventurers in the defense camp seems to have dropped significantly!"
"At least hundreds of adventurers would have come here at this time in previous years, right?"
"How many are there this year?"
"There are very few, there seem to be only a few dozen here and there."
"What the hell, they all went directly into the dark forest?"
"If someone goes in, someone should come out. What's the point of just getting in but not getting out? Couldn't they all be dead inside?"
"Is there any news from the killer?"
When someone mentioned the killer, the leading bearded businessman frowned even more.
"No, there is no news at all. They seem to have disappeared from the world."
The three stalker killers contacted by the bearded businessman through an intermediary had collaborated twice in the past.
Although the other party charges a high price, their "professional quality" is indeed quite good.
If a level 3 stalker is lucky enough and the opportunity is clever enough, he may even have the chance to assassinate a level 4 archmage by himself.
Normally, the news of a successful assassination will be sent back in 1 or 2 days, or in 3 or 5 days.
The bearded businessman relied on this move to kill two guys who tried to get involved in Ceylon's weapons and armor business, ensuring their market monopoly.
As a result, this trick that had worked well for many times did not work this time.
He felt a little nervous. No news is, in a sense, a kind of news.
They failed, so they didn't respond.
He was able to escape the assassination of a level 3 stalker and probably completed the counter-attack!
This is the most annoying thing about beards.
He investigated with an information dealer and learned that the goblin named Hugo Seavey was obviously an ordinary person, and he seemed to have some unexplained relationship with the refugee camp outside the city.
How could such a guy kill a powerful level 3 stalker with his backhand? !
After thinking about it wildly, I could only think of one possibility.
There is someone behind the other party.
Hugo Seavey is probably just a public spokesperson. There is someone else who is actually in charge of this ultra-low-price dumping of equipment.
Thinking of this, Beard began to make plans.
He who knows the current affairs is a hero, and there is no doubt that he knows the current affairs very well.
"Don't panic, don't panic! Listen to me! Listen to me!"
When it comes to doing business, be it assassination or price war, they are all tactics!
Everyone’s ultimate goal is not to make money!
The bearded man analyzed with a serious face: "No matter what the other party's background is, that Hugo Seavey should just be a spokesperson."
"It's normal for Shang Zhan to die for his spokesperson, not to mention he's not dead either!"
"In this case, I think there is room for negotiation between us and the other party, right?"
“When we established this business alliance, wasn’t it just for everyone to join forces and make money from Ceylon’s surrounding areas?”
"The other party has proven his strength. He has sufficient supply and good strength. I recognize him."
"We also have good strength. We previously monopolized the market in Ceylon, right?"
“We can offer each other an olive branch!”
"Price wars and assassinations will only hurt both sides in the end."
"Joining forces to monopolize the market and drive up prices will make everyone make money and everyone will be happy."
The beard's words can be summed up in two words:
I'm scared!
He couldn't afford the price war, and the assassination failed.
Then we can only think of ways to beg the other party to join the business alliance and make everyone become "one of our own".
"But, will the other party be willing to join us?" Someone hesitated and questioned.
The bearded man affirmed: "That guy is obviously new here. Even if he wants to sell, he can't find a suitable channel. Unlike us, we have stores all over the Ceylon collar."
"If he wants to make money, he definitely needs our channels!"
"I think if he really plans to do business well, he might take the initiative to contact us soon."
After the words fell, as if to confirm the beard's statement, there was a knock on the door outside the room where the equipment dealers were gathering.
"My Lords, a letter for you!"
The businessman near the door stood up and opened the door.
There was no one outside the door, but a letter was left on the ground.
"Look! Look! What did I say!"
The bearded man took the envelope and opened it with a smile on his face.
"If nothing else, that guy must be planning to take the initiative to discuss cooperation with us. Look, isn't it written on it, about the acquisition plan of the weapons and equipment sales business?!"
"Walter?! What the hell?!"
…
There will be another update later, working on it!
