Then, Wendell immediately greeted Zhou Bai warmly, "Hello, Village Chief."
Upon hearing this, Zhou Bai nodded slightly to Wendel.
Although she had only been here for a short while, she could see that there was a clear hierarchy within the town of Benguela. Since she was the mayor of Hope Village and temporarily represented the face of Hope Village, she naturally could not lower her posture too much.
Wendel, however, looked at Zhou Bai's attitude and accepted it well.
Which territory's lords and high-ranking officials are not like this?
After the two of them greeted each other, Simmons looked at the Hope Village merchandise on sale on one side. "I've heard along the way that the things in Hope Village are of good quality and low price. Now I see that they are all quite novel. At least I haven't seen them before!"
Who doesn’t love new and novel things!
Especially when the price is still low.
"We can only work harder on food and drink." Zhou Bai said frankly, his expression full of emotion, "There are many things in Benguela that I have never heard of."
The gap between their territory and Benguela Town is really too big! I just hope that we can catch up in the future.
...
...
Simmons listened and said with a smile: "This is perfect. In the future, our two territories can also exchange what we have and what we don't have, complement each other, and develop together."
At this point, Simmons' hint is already obvious.
He thought that since Zhou Bai could become the village chief of Hope Village, he must be smart!
Zhou Bai indeed understood, and he felt relieved.
When she knew that her stuff was eye-catching, she had originally planned to cooperate with the mercenary team in the town of Benguela. Now that the mayor was leading the effort, she was naturally willing.
I just don’t know what the relationship between Wendell and the mayor is that made him choose the other party directly.
Thinking about it, Zhou Bai said with a kind face: "We hope that there are many similar products in the village. If conditions permit, our two territories can strengthen cooperation. Our territory is in great need of magic potions and magic supplies."
"What a coincidence." Simmons said, then pointed at Wendell and said, "His mercenary group is one of the best in our town of Benguela. It's no mistake to leave the transportation of goods between the two places to him."
Zhou Bai looked at Wendel and directly introduced Yun Juncai who was standing beside him. "He knows everything about the goods and caravans in our territory. He can take the lead in the trade between the two places."
The news Yunjun had just told her helped her a lot, and now it was time for her to give back.
As he spoke, he thought of Ellis and the others beside him and added, "Ellis, you guys should help Yun Juncai!"
After all, Ellis and his men are local residents and mercenaries. They must be familiar with the ins and outs of the mercenary group. It is most appropriate for them to assist Yun Juncai in negotiating with Wendel and others.
In addition, Ellis and the others have made their attitude towards Hope Village very clear along the way. Since they are one of them, she is willing to promote them.
Give more benefits to your subordinates, then they will help you well!
In the future, more and more people will be willing to contribute to Hope Village. The better the territory develops, the more she, as the lord, will not suffer any loss.
Ellis listened, his eyes lit up, and he nodded in agreement.
This is a benefit that comes to your doorstep!
There was gratitude in Zhou Bai's eyes.
This village chief is really capable!
Yun Juncai was even more so. He let out a long sigh in his heart.
His chance has come again!
The next moment, Yun Juncai took Ellis and others to discuss the details of the cooperation with Wendel. Of course, he did not forget to bring along Zhong Yongnian and other team leaders.
Looking at their figures, Simmons looked at Zhou Bai, "Ms. Zhou, would you like to come to my house for a visit?"
"No, I still have to watch here." Zhou Bai responded. Although the other party's attitude towards her was friendly, the relationship between them was distant, so it was better to forget about visiting him!
Simmons didn't force it, and then asked, "Would it be convenient for me to buy a batch of special jerky?"
He had done everything he should have done and given Wendel such a huge benefit. Given Wendel's character, he would definitely not forget his share. He could just lie back and collect the money.
It's safe to take this kind of money. Even if the lord knows about it, he will definitely not say anything.
It was because of his thought that he planned to send this fresh specialty to the lord who was in the family territory. It was a token of his thoughtfulness.
"Of course no problem." Zhou Bai said, and took Simmons to Zhong Yongnian's stall.
There were a lot of people queuing up, but after seeing Simmons, they all gave up their seats to Simmons.
Simmons did not refuse this "benefit". After buying a sufficient amount, he left and retired with his mission accomplished.
Even though he left, the influence he brought was far from stopping, and the mercenary captains who had been interested in him gathered together again.
"I'm afraid the mayor is planning to cooperate with the people from Hope Village. The other party's identity may not be simple."
"So you're just giving up like that?" one of them said unwillingly.
"If we have the support of the mayor, our chances of success will be higher. Now that he doesn't support us and has pushed Wendel out, the chances of us getting the formula are too small."
Several people were silent, reality forced them to give up.
The road to wealth is finally right in front of you.
Just when they were struggling, they suddenly saw Zhou Bai coming towards them.
They looked at each other, not knowing whether they should disperse or wait for the other party to come over?
While they were struggling, Zhou Bai had already arrived in front of them.
"I am Zhou Bai, the mayor of Hope Village."
As soon as the head of Hope Village uttered these five words, several mercenary captains understood instantly, and the greed in their hearts dissipated a lot.
Several people saluted politely.
"I heard that you are interested in the specialties of our territory?" Zhou Bai asked directly.
As soon as these words were spoken, several people showed embarrassed expressions on their faces.
Is the other party coming to question them directly?
Just when they didn't know whether to deny or apologize, Zhou Bai spoke up, "Jerky is just one of the specialties of our territory. We have a lot more in our territory, and many of them are not inferior to jerky."
Hearing Zhou Bai's arrogant words, they were somewhat skeptical.
Zhou Bai acted as if he hadn't seen it, and said calmly: "We'll talk about that later. For now, I'd like to discuss the jerky business with you. Are you willing?"
"The jerky business? Wasn't it handed over to Wendell?"
"Wendell only got the market of the town of Benguela. There are so many territories in this world." Zhou Bai said meaningfully.
After listening to Zhou Bai's words, several people's eyes lit up and signaled Zhou Bai to continue.
"In a certain designated territory, we will only sell our goods to your team. We only fix a price. How high the price can be depends on your own ability. But we need one condition, that is, your team needs to regularly provide us with animal meat that is no less than the amount you take." Zhou Bai directly gave his conditions.
"What's your fixed price?" someone couldn't help but ask.
"The current selling price will be reduced by 20%." Zhou Bai replied.
From the fact that the mercenary captains were still observing them, they knew that they had not given up completely. In order to save them some trouble on their return journey, they tied them up on their boat.
The "crisis" encountered by the small town of Benguela this time also proved one thing: Hope Village is still just a fragile seedling in the entire Stan continent and cannot withstand too big a storm. Instead of seeking development on its own, it is better to rely on the power of others so that the products of Hope Village can be spread as much as possible and occupy the market.
As a commodity distribution center, Hope Village will definitely have a good harvest!
This was the choice she made after weighing the gap between Hope Village and her native territory, and she felt it was the capital that would enable her to turn things around the fastest.
Several mercenary captains looked at each other with the same feeling.
Obviously, Zhou Bai's conditions have touched their hearts.
They know very well that as long as the amount is large enough, the benefits they get will definitely not be small.
At the risk of offending the town of Benguela and the Viscount, does this option seem to be the better choice now?
"Can your territory supply so much beast meat?"
"Not at the moment, but as long as we sign the contract, we can supply it soon." Zhou Bai said without hesitation.
If the deal is successful, the next step would be to build a special factory for production, and the territory would definitely need to own a stake in this factory.
These mercenary teams gave her the confidence to negotiate with Zhong Yongnian on behalf of the territory.
"Okay." Several people agreed.
At this time, one person couldn't help but speak up, "Except for our mercenary team, can other mercenary teams that are not here do the same?"
"Of course, if you can recommend five mercenary teams, I can let you occupy one more territory." Zhou Bai said directly, the more tool teams, the better! This would save her a lot of trouble!
"Can we sign the contract now?" a mercenary team already asked impatiently.
"Sure." Zhou Bai agreed without hesitation.
Afterwards, Zhou Bai signed a contract with several people in the name of the village chief of Hope Village.
After the signing was completed and the content of the contract was approved by the system, Zhou Bai let out a long sigh of relief.
The last trace of worry also disappeared!
She even turned from passive to active!
Looking back on the whole process, I can only say that the identity of the village chief... is really useful!
This time, they were really lucky!
If she had not accepted the position of acting village chief, this group of people would have been at the mercy of others for recklessly intruding into other people's territory.
The captain of the mercenary team who left with a few contracts also left quickly. They had to "recruit people" quickly! They had to open another territory market!
Just when Zhou Bai finished the negotiation, Yun Juncai also came back with Zhong Yongnian and others and directly reported on the cooperation with Wendel.
"We only handed over the market of Benguela Town to him." Yun Juncai said directly, then looked at Zhou Bai and said, "Village Chief, what did you just talk about with the other mercenary captains?"
Zhou Bai looked at Yun Juncai and the others, and directly told them about the contract he had just signed, and expressed his plan, "When we return to the territory, we will discuss the specific division. You all know that without the territory as a backing, it is difficult for a single caravan to break through."
After hearing this, Zhong Yongnian said without hesitation: "I am willing to let the territory intervene, and I am willing to share the formula with you."
Regarding what Zhou Bai had just done, he just wanted to say one thing in his heart.
My village chief is so awesome!
If successful, they hope that the village will definitely become the "Yiwu" of the food industry in Stan Continent.
By then, even if the majority of it belongs to the territory, he will definitely be able to earn more than that.
The most important thing is safety!
As the core force, Zhong Yongnian had no objection, and the others were even more so. Some of them had even already reserved the special products they could produce in advance.
Seeing that this matter was finalized, Zhou Bai's thoughts became more and more firm.
When she returns to Hope Village this time, she will immerse herself in large-scale industrial production and devote herself to building the territory.
The small town of Benguela is the next target for the development of the Village of Hope!
Two more merged into one~
