Chapter 123 Trade Development
"What did you say?"
Vansh said that the Crown Prince and the Duke had an argument in the next hall for some unknown reason, broke a set of porcelain vases, and left in a bad mood.
Not long ago, they were able to pretend to be normal. They were not brotherly and respectful to each other, but they were harmonious.
The dinner was over, the dance began, and after drinking the wine, they started to quarrel in front of all the nobles.
It seems that the two brothers have established their own foundations and now they don't even want to act anymore.
Olivia and Caesar can also smell some key signals from it.
You know, the more obvious the hostility between the two is, the weaker the king's control over them becomes. It's not that the king doesn't want to suppress them and keep the two brothers in superficial harmony, but that the king is already unable to do so and can no longer control them.
Olivia and Caesar went out very calmly, diverting the attention of the nobles, and took the crowd to watch the soprano sing a little song.
After the banquet, the duty-free shopping festival in Eindhoven is not over yet.
Merchants of all sizes in the city put in their best efforts and used their best skills to accommodate the large number of nobles.
For the merchants in the city, this is incredible wealth.
All the nobles in the kingdom, as long as they had the title of baron, came with their families to join in the fun, and all the hundreds of rooms in the luxury hotels in the city were fully occupied.
After attending the party in the fortress, these nobles would return to their residences to rest, and they would always spend some time strolling around the city.
They found that in the Einweiten market, in addition to overseas products, there are also many highly developed and exquisite handicraft products, such as leather products with various styles and various products with particularly detailed classifications.
Compared to customers who are simply surprised by these products, Moni, as a mature businessman, can see the underlying reasons for the prosperity of Einweiton's business.
Moni hadn't returned to the mainland for a long time to avoid his former employer, but he came back for this event.
The situation of the Kingdom of Alta has completely changed since the war, and now its business behavior has completely boarded the big ship of Einweiten in terms of its stance.
Now his former club can't threaten or force anyone at Eintracht Frankfurt no matter what.
After returning to Eindhoven, Moni began to explore this northern political, cultural and economic center where he would depend for his survival.
He wandered around the city market along with other nobles who were strolling and shopping in the city.
There are many kinds of goods here, the art is highly developed, and the cultural atmosphere is particularly rich. It is a paradise for shopping and business.
Moni could see that three conditions needed to work together behind this.
Policy support, industrial development, and economic environment.
From a policy perspective, it is almost impossible for merchants in Eindhoven to stay in their comfort zone, and no businessman can find an industry that can be passed down from generation to generation by relying solely on a basic skill without striving for technological breakthroughs.
All daily necessities here, including food, clothing, housing and transportation, are controlled by official channels.
As a private merchant, you can only develop within the bottom line of official channels, not below it.
Therefore, all merchants are engaged in a healthy internal competition on craftsmanship, quality, design, aesthetics, and the pursuit of a unique style.
From the perspective of industrial development, the industry here not only created a group of rich people who were not dependent on the land, but also created a different kind of productivity that could change the structure of the entire society and make business no longer restricted by the geographical location of the aristocracy.
In Einweiden, no merchant would have to pay a toll every time he passed through a knight's manor.
There will be no competition between merchants or knights. Local trade has been separated from the manor, and the knights have begun to be highly paid and honest. Even if they have power, it is limited to the army, and they cannot use their power to undermine commercial fairness.
Economically, the entire Einweiden region is very active. Moni once asked Letilen, who, as an employee of the Department of Commerce, is very clear about the extent of import and export trade deficits and surpluses in various industries in the region.
It can be said that the economy here can radiate not only to the southern continent, but also to the entire north. Even the remaining aristocratic forces in neighboring Lenya like to send people here to trade goods. The business environment is completely benign.
The industry here can serve a wide range of markets, so the economic market is naturally highly developed, and banks and financial markets have begun to appear on the historical stage.
Unbeknownst to everyone, the lady of the lord had already invited Moni to manage the regional bank and regional financial exchange that Einweiton was about to build.
However, this burden is too heavy.
Moni knew that Einweiden had a huge future. As of now, Vero Island already belonged to it. According to the inside information he knew, it was only a matter of time before they could take over the entire north.
It goes without saying that carrying out such important economic work in a region that may expand rapidly and even become an independent regime in the near future is an extremely difficult task.
He did not agree immediately, but considered it carefully.
Moni was walking on the street, he planned to take a look first.
In Einweiden, the most popular thing now is minimalist art. Merchants no longer pursue simple handicrafts, and rough processing merchants such as millers are no longer influential figures.
Moni casually walked into a food store and saw a wide variety of snacks that he had never seen before.
Southern condiments and northern raw materials, things from all over the world come together to create this small snack shop, where you can eat coconut butter bread, braised duck, and sweet and sour corn chips.
Walking into the store, the merchants introduced these things to him one by one. Moni saw a small nobleman buying several cartons of snacks at the checkout counter and planning to take them back to the hotel where he was staying.
Moni also took out his purse and bought a lot of things, and walked around the whole street with his servants.
On the clothing street, where dazzling works of art have taken root, he also encountered an art show that was being held.
The merchants here are able to produce the most exquisite lace, use southern ostrich skins to make fashionable saddle bags, make jewel-encrusted canes, make gorgeous hats and new-style swallowtail jackets, and leather shoes with elegant shapes and rich patterns.
After strolling around here, Moni spent all the gold coins in his purse and returned to his residence with his servants.
The next day, Moni went to the business room, found Letilen, and estimated with him the economic market size of Einweiden as a whole.
This number is beyond imagination.
Naturally, he made up his mind to accept the job offer that was before him.
