Chapter 1265 Blinded by Money
Anthony and Negris felt as if thousands of lightning bolts were galloping through their hearts. They disguised themselves carefully, but when they looked back, they found that someone had already hired people to set up stalls here in a blatant manner.
The one coming was a descendant of the Star God in the shape of a goblin. The way it rubbed its hands and jogged along, it didn't look like a descendant of the Star God at all. Instead, it looked like a goblin.
Coming in front of everyone, he quickly scanned everyone and accurately found the person who could make the decision: "Dear distinguished guests, are you planning to sell this stick insect? Our Chamber of Commerce is purchasing some flying beasts of burden, and we can offer a good price."
Well, as soon as I heard this, I knew it was from outside. Only people from outside would know stick insects. It seems that everyone calls this kind of creature stick insects.
Anthony's heart moved, and he said something that Silver Coin often said: "Except for faith and the Lord, nothing can't be sold, only the price is appropriate. May I ask what price you are willing to pay?"
"Oh, how do you know this sentence? This is a famous saying that our president often says. It is so familiar. It seems that there is a fateful bond between us. I wonder if the customer has an expected price?" The goblin clapped his hands and said enthusiastically.
Anthony pretended to be unhappy and said, "You want to buy it, but how can you let the customer set the price? Is this how you do business? Who is your supervisor? I want to file a complaint against you."
The goblin opened his mouth in surprise. He had expanded to such a far place, but he still encountered such a knowledgeable customer? He even knew how to complain?
The goblin reacted and said quickly, "No, no, I definitely didn't mean to ask the customer to name a price. It seems that the customer is also well versed in the market. I admire you. Please allow me to check the condition of the goods, okay?"
Anthony made a gesture of invitation.
"A malnourished, shriveled, and skinny stick insect pack animal..." The goblin sang as he watched.
"Pfft—" Nagris burst out laughing on the spot: "Silver Coin must not have trained it well."
The spirit of the ground was shocked: "You...you know the president of the Silver Coin Guild? You are...you are Xiao Fei...you are Lord Nag?"
Anthony smiled and nodded. "I didn't expect you to have expanded your business so far. I wonder which branch of the Silver Chamber of Commerce you belong to?"
Anthony drew a pattern in the air as he spoke.
The Earth Spirit's face brightened, and he quickly drew another pattern, saying as he drew: "I am the vice president of the Diakos Caravan, I am Diakos."
Or the person in charge? There is only one president of the Silver Light Chamber of Commerce, and that is Yinbi. The others are all vice presidents. The vice president is in charge of the caravan, and he is the general person in charge of the caravan.
After Anthony identified the pattern drawn by the other party, he drew another new pattern.
The earth spirit became serious, and he immediately took out a calculator, calculated on it for a long time, and finally came up with a string of numbers. Then he took out a book, found the numbers on it, and pieced together an identity.
"Greetings, Mr. President Anthony." The goblin bowed respectfully.
"Get up. I didn't expect to meet a pioneer of the trade route here. You are great." Anthony said approvingly.
Negris asked in confusion: "Wait a minute, what do you mean by gesturing for so long? When did you become the president? What does president mean?"
Anthony said to Diakos: "Explain it to him."
"Yes, Mr. President." Diakos turned to Negris and explained, "Mr. President means the Prime Minister. Mr. President has more authority than our president. The Prime Minister decides all the affairs of the Chamber of Commerce. What we just did was the hand gesture code used in the Chamber of Commerce."
"The president asked me about my identity using a high-level code. I answered that I belonged to a certain department. The president gave me his identity code. I used the bookkeeping method to calculate the numbers and found the corresponding explanations of these numbers in the internal account book to confirm the president's identity."
Nagris was confused: "Do you have to go through so much trouble? Can't a mark express my identity?"
"Yes." Diakos responded respectfully, "If my soul is searched, the mark will be exposed. However, after going through this process, the enemy needs to know the identity code, learn the accounting method, and recognize the special markings in the internal account. It is difficult for ordinary people to recognize the correct identity code from this process."
Indeed, the mark can be found by searching the soul, and even the accounting method is easy to learn, but combined with the inner account, even Nagris will have a headache.
The internal account is the so-called secret account. Every chamber of commerce has a different way of keeping secret accounts. A number that is clearly written as zero may very well represent one, or two, three, four, or five. It mainly depends on the habits of the accountant.
This kind of secret account cannot be understood by anyone except the person who keeps the account. Even if one searches the soul, if the whole account is not complete, the fragmented information will not be understandable.
Even if you searched for everything, you might not be able to understand it. Some people have studied mathematics for their entire lives but still cannot figure out the secret accounts kept by an accountant.
Nagris couldn't help but give a thumbs up: "As expected of a silver coin, this secret keeping method is really amazing. What about you? What are you doing here? How did you get here? Also, what race are you?"
Although Diakos looks like a goblin now, you can tell from its name that it is not a native goblin. It is not a native goblin, but a descendant of the Divine Star and has joined the Silver Light Chamber of Commerce. Its identity is a bit complicated.
"I am a descendant of the God Star. I came here to open up trade routes. I was teleported here with the pack animals of my tribe." Diakos said.
"You are the descendant of God Star? Then how did you join the Silver Light Chamber of Commerce?" Now even Anthony couldn't help but be curious. They knew about the descendants of God Star for the first time after they came here. How could Silver Coin have such a vice president under its command?
How did they get in touch and join successfully? Why didn't Silver Coin say anything about this? Was he blocked by Ang again?
"A light disaster occurred some time ago. Many people in my tribe were harmed by the disaster. They can only hide in the shaded side of the plane and cannot be exposed to sunlight. If we cannot be exposed to sunlight for a long time, we will get sick and cannot move normally."
"So I thought, is there something that can reduce the intensity of sunlight, so that we can touch the sunlight through that thing? I am willing to exchange it with something of equal value. When I thought about this, I heard the voice of the president in the dark."
"He said that if I was willing to abide by the God of Commerce's principle of equal exchange, he could establish a trade relationship with me. Then I used some Origin Crystals to exchange for some light-blocking cloaks, and I could move around normally after putting them on."
"My people saw my cloak and wanted it too, so I took their crystals and bought some cloaks from the guild leader. The guild leader told me to keep a suitable profit, so he asked me to take 200 crystals, give him 150, and the rest would be mine."
"I could make so much profit just by reselling it, so I strongly asked the president to teach me more trade rules. The president said that I could set up my own caravan. In this way, I only need to pay one-third of the management fee and channel fee, and the rest will be mine."
"If a new trade route is opened up, I can share the profits of the entire trade route, so I came here." Diakos said with shining eyes, just like a profiteer who was blinded by money.
