Chapter 315 Threatening letter

“Good news!”

“Good news!”

…

In addition to good news, it is good news. In recent days, Hudson has been soft on the good news.

I don’t know if it’s a game of good news. There are so many good news from the major forces, as if they made an appointment to show off to him.

Especially those big forces, one family is bigger than one family. It’s like a beheading contest, the number of enemies wiped out is more than one.

Originally Hudson thought he was hard-hearted, but after reading the content on the photo stone, he realized that he was too kind.

Race wars, nothing to blame. Cruelty to the enemy is also a responsibility to one’s own people.

Although he couldn’t bear it and killed all his allies, Hudson still agreed with it.

If you want to show off your record, there is no problem at all. Master Hudson is very happy to act as a green leaf to set off their sturdy record.

A little false name, take it if you want it!

Of course, the reason why Master Hudson didn’t stir up any waves in his heart was because everyone killed the orc cannon fodder.

This kind of low-level military exploits, if the number of beheaded people does not bring tens of thousands, they would be ashamed to show it to others.

If you want to take it back for publicity, you still have to kill a large number of orc royal families to cause a sensation.

From enlistment to the present, in the countless battles Hudson commanded, the orc army annihilated was not one million, but seven or eight hundred thousand.

But there are still very few records that can really be shown. The main reason is: too few main orcs have been wiped out.

But this “less” is also relative. With the cumulative record of annihilating tens of thousands of orc royal families, Hudson surpassed many of his colleagues and temporarily ranked first.

“Jose, draft papers for these guys separately, congratulate them on their great victory on the front line!”

After hearing what Hudson said, Jose looked depressed. Originally, I thought that if I won this opportunity to enter the army, I would be able to fight a turnaround and wash away the black pot on my head.

Unfortunately, the Royal Army has started the business of transport teams, so there is not much room for development. After a battle, it was snatched away by the nobles of the Northland.

As a king, even if he wanted to gain military merit, he had to act with the royal army. If you hang out with the nobles of the Northland, there is a high probability that you will never return.

As a loyal minister of the king, he naturally wanted to preserve his strength for the royal family, so the royal army was left early to look after food and grass.

The opportunity to gain military exploits is gone, but that is only for Jose personally.

From the standpoint of the royal family, they regained the lost ground in this war, and they have already eaten and drank enough, and the most important thing next is to digest the results of the battle.

Without credit, you can only earn hard work. Handling official documents for Hudson became his main job.

Continuing in this state, it is estimated that when he goes back to discuss meritorious deeds and rewards, he will be able to win the title of an honorary knight.

Don’t dislike the low title, that’s how the rules of the game are formulated. If you want to obtain a title, you must either inherit it or go to the battlefield to obtain it.

Without military exploits, you can’t even think about making progress if you just spend a lifetime of qualifications. Even if you are hanging out with the king, you have to go to the battlefield to feel your presence.

The rules are so rigid, just to maintain the kingdom’s “martial arts” spirit. It is clear in the form of the system that nobles must go to the battlefield.

“Okay, Your Excellency the Earl!”

It should have been a good thing to hang out with the coach. But Jose was very depressed. You must know that when the two met for the first time two years ago, he was the coach in charge of coordinating.

As a smart person, he naturally knew what Hudson wanted to attract him. However, as an aspiring lord, he still prefers to hang out with the king.

Don’t look at him in a state of desperation now, in fact he did it on purpose. This time, he was sacrificed for the crown prince. How could the royal family not make up for it?

It’s just that the smart Jose didn’t choose to accept the compensation, but decided to start over and keep the favor.

Looking at the busy Jose, Hudson shook his head secretly. Both of them knew what the other was thinking, and neither was willing to pierce the window paper, so the matter came to a stalemate.

The wall of the king is not easy to dig, and the wall of the great nobles in the country is also not easy to dig.

Taking advantage of his status as the coach, Hudson has mobilized many talents from the army to listen to him, but unfortunately none of them are willing to defect to him.

There is no way, smart people have many ideas. Everyone is weighing the pros and cons, and everyone prefers a comfortable life to working hard from scratch.

But these are what Hudson can’t give. Compared with the prosperous big cities owned by a large number of nobles, the mountainous land is a remote country. When it develops, I don’t know what year and month it will be.

Hudson is not surprised by everyone’s choice. This is just like the previous life, where people had to choose between first-tier big cities and small towns.

Eating, drinking, entertainment, development platforms, and personal treatment are all at a disadvantage, and it is inevitable that they cannot attract talents.

It’s not that Hudson is stingy, it’s that he has too few chips in his hands and can’t give others what they want.

First-class talents were not found, but second- and third-rate talents were recruited. Basically, they are guys from minor aristocrats who have no titles to inherit.

For Hudson, who is short of people, as long as he is a talent, his background is not important. He never refuses any nobleman who intends to join him.

All the way to the present, it can be said that the bricks and tiles are complete, and now there are only a few “big beams”.

It’s all caused by the war. After the war, every family has to repair their houses. Now they have started looting “building materials”, so that Hudson can’t get the “beams”.

If it weren’t for the name of the coach, which attracted some talents to join him, it is estimated that even these “bricks and tiles” would not have Hudson’s share.

Just because you can’t dig it out doesn’t mean you can’t use it. At least during his tenure as the commander-in-chief of the army, Hudson was still able to command these guys.

For example, if a few assistants are arranged to study with him, everyone still has to sell him.

As much as you can learn, count as much. Even if a hundred people are arranged to go out, only one can become a talent, that is blood money.

In a sense, the greatest significance of Hudson as the coach is that he can openly use the resources of the kingdom to cultivate talents for himself.

Not only did he follow along, Hudson also arranged for his own people to exercise in various key departments.

Did not cause a backlash, the most important thing is that he did things properly. Even if they want to train their own people, they usually don’t arrange principal positions, and even deputy positions are rarely arranged, and more of them follow behind to do odd jobs.

In order to train the team, Hudson also worked hard.

…

Touring the camp, a special team in the distance caught Hudson’s attention.

I have to admit that the interests are touching, and there are still caravans who dare to go deep into the prairie at this time.

“Tom, send someone over to question, which chamber of commerce are they from?

What are you doing going deep into the orc prairie at this time? ”

As early as when the Principality of Moxi was fighting, in order to deal with the spoils, Hudson had dealt with the local Chamber of Commerce a lot.

However, those chambers of commerce only reached cooperation through the connection of local nobles. Someone guarantees the transaction from the beginning, and there is no risk of being wiped out halfway.

The caravan in front of me is obviously different. If it was a chamber of commerce group in the kingdom, nobles would have come to say hello.

Doing business behind the army is all about being humane. Hudson bets they would never have made it out of the prairie alive if no one was behind them.

If you bet on the integrity of the nobles, forget it! The forest is big and there are all kinds of birds. Although there are many honest knights, there are more greedy and cruel nobles.

Vaguely, Hudson found that he seemed to have grasped a business opportunity to get a share of the war fortune.

The frontlines are constantly reporting good news, and countless tribes have been destroyed. The coalition forces must have a lot of spoils to deal with.

The businessman can do this business, he can do the same, and he can even do it more beautifully.

It’s too ugly to go directly to the market to do business, and it’s a troublesome thing to sell the supplies, and it might end up in your own hands.

It would be different if we were looking for several chambers of commerce to cooperate and build a commodity trading platform for all parties.

No matter what business you do, you may lose money; only as a platform, you can make a steady profit without losing money.

What needs to be paid is mainly to provide credit guarantee, and the labor cost of the venue can be ignored.

The most important thing is this sale, no one has come to grab the business yet.

Although there are many big men in the coalition army, they are all fighting on the front line, and they may encounter the orc army at any time.

A place where there is no guarantee of security, it is naturally impossible to be a commodity trading center.

…

In the blink of an eye, I saw Tom walking towards this side with a middle-aged fat man.

There were two strong men behind him, carrying a box, but they were detained by the guards a hundred meters away.

“Count, this is Sir Xavier, the head of the Catesya Chamber of Commerce, and he came to visit you specially!”

As soon as Tom finished speaking, the middle-aged fat man hurried forward and saluted Hudson: “Xavier, the fifth-level deacon of the Catesya Chamber of Commerce, sends his regards to the respected Earl of Hudson.

In the box at the back are some small gifts we prepared, please accept them, Your Excellency Earl! ”

Reaching out without hitting the smiling face, the fat middle-aged man in front of him is obviously planning to spend money to avoid disaster. In order to dispel Hudson’s greed, he even used the banner of the Catesya Chamber of Commerce.

It’s a pity that he made a wrong calculation this time. Hudson sent someone to stop them, not for the sake of making a fortune.

“Sir Xavier, I am familiar with the name of your chamber of commerce, but haven’t you been active in the southern part of the mainland all the time, when did you open up your business to the orc prairie?”

Hudson asked pretending to be puzzled.

As one of the four major chambers of commerce in the mainland, the business of the Catesya chamber of commerce is spread all over the entire continent, but the main business area is still in the southern mainland.

“Your Excellency, we are here mainly at the invitation of Marquis Sunil to help the Frankish army deal with some minor troubles!”

Xavier replied neither humble nor overbearing.

As the fifth-level deacon of the Catesya Chamber of Commerce, he can be regarded as the middle and high level of the Chamber of Commerce. There are not a few big nobles who have dealt with them, and their mentality has long been tempered.

“Oh! Your headquarters is in the Frankish Kingdom, and it is only logical that you have some friendship with Marquis Sunil.

The main purpose of inviting you here this time is to tell you: In order to facilitate the handling of spoils by the coalition forces, I am going to build a commodity trading platform to provide you with a safe trading place. ”

Hudson bit the word “safety” very hard. As long as you are not a fool, you know that this is the point.

Brows were slightly frowned, and Xavier’s cloud turned clear in an instant, and he asked Hudson with a smile: “Your Excellency, don’t worry! We will definitely come to support at that time, it’s just a matter of cost?”

Although the Catesya Chamber of Commerce is famous, it can’t deter the wolves. Even if the best mercenary group is hired, going deep into the orc prairie this time is still full of dangers.

Even if the Marquis of Sunil is endorsed, there is no guarantee that someone will not be able to withstand the temptation of interests and lay hands on them.

As long as it is done cleanly and does not leave obvious evidence, it will be very difficult to track down afterwards.

As far as Xavier knows, there are already more than ten chambers of commerce that have had accidents on the grassland.

In-depth investigation is required, the murderer is the “orc”. Complaints are meaningless, everyone is busy fighting, and there is no time to care about the life and death of a caravan.

“Don’t worry, building this trading platform is mainly to facilitate free trade and make friends by the way. I won’t charge commissions and the like!”

Hudson pretended to be proud and said.

According to the mainland practice, platform companies charge commissions based on transaction volume, but this time the situation is different.

The transaction object involves many nobles in the coalition army, and the commission is directly drawn from the transaction amount, which makes it easy for everyone to think that this is making money from their pockets.

If you don’t take a direct commission, it doesn’t mean you can’t make money. Compared with the naked interests on the surface, making money secretly is more in line with Hudson’s character.

“Your Excellency, this…”

As a businessman, Xavier doesn’t think that Hudson spent so much effort to build a trading platform just to make friends.

“Sir Xavier, don’t be too surprised. To build a trading platform for free, I really want to make friends with everyone.

As you know, I am also a lord. During the development of the territory, it was inevitable to encounter many troubles.

It happens that many troubles here can be solved by everyone. As friends, it is also necessary to help each other! ”

Hudson said without changing his face.

Xavier, who was still uneasy, returned to smiling in an instant. The exchange of interests is right.

If it was really free stuffed pie, he would not dare to eat it when it was delivered to his mouth. The big nobles don’t have fuel-efficient lamps, and if they get the benefits of free, the price they need to pay is often even greater.

This kind of transaction that puts demand on the surface is more reassuring. It is not convenient to talk about the specific details of the transaction now, but Xavier knows that the transaction has a high probability of being completed.

“Your Excellency is right, friends should benefit from each other!

However, to establish a commodity trading platform, the most important thing is strength. If everyone joins in, it will easily affect the reputation of the platform.

For everyone’s benefit, it’s better to…”

Before Xavier finished speaking, Hudson knew that the fat man in front of him was full of bad water. Talking about strength and keeping silent about reputation is nothing more than wanting to reduce competitors.

“Sir Xavier, you can rest assured. The Chamber of Commerce that is qualified to handle the spoils for the army must be well-known.

Considering large transactions, it is inconvenient to carry so many gold coins, and it is inevitable to keep accounts. This has higher requirements on the reputation and strength of the chamber of commerce.

In addition to paying a certain deposit, at least three nobles in the coalition army must obtain guarantees, and they must prove to us that the chamber of commerce has a complete sales network.

For caravans that cannot meet the conditions, in order to enter the trading venue, in addition to paying a deposit, we will also issue risk warnings. We recommend that you all use cash transactions. ”

It’s not that Hudson is discriminating. It’s really such a big business. Without sufficient political background and strong financial strength, it is impossible to do it.

An army’s spoils, no matter how discounted the price is, is still a big deal worth tens of thousands or hundreds of thousands of gold coins, which is not suitable for all cash settlement.

Requiring all transactions in cash is actually a kind of euphemistic persuasion. Make it clear to those businessmen who have no background, don’t come here to participate in this kind of business blindly, otherwise they will die.

The struggle in the commercial field is much more cruel than the dispute in the noble circle. It’s all about naked interests, and there’s no room for any warmth.

The profiteering business depends on whose hands it is. Forcibly blending in businesses beyond one’s ability, one is lucky not to lose everything.

“Your Excellency, you are considerate! It’s because my vision is too narrow, I only think about the issue of reputation, and ignore the reality…”

He said so, but he didn’t think so in his heart.

In essence, they are all raising the threshold of transactions. The difference lies in the way Hudson handles it, which is taken out and framed. There is no one-size-fits-all, completely blocking the way for small and medium-sized chambers of commerce.

…
