"All three of them went, why don't you go?" Lin Xingchen could clearly see that she also wanted to go in, but she just sat there motionless.

"Due to the large number of people attending this sale, the organizer has limited the number of people that can enter. Each bidding agent's chamber of commerce is only eligible to enter the venue after the last three."

"Is that so? Do you want to go in? I'll take you there! I want to go in too anyway."

"Is this really possible?" Anna was surprised. After all, the rules set by the Maple Leaf Chamber of Commerce were quite strict.

"Don't worry! Your entry won't affect your friends. If you want to go in, just follow me."

As he said this, he picked up the book, stood up and walked towards the venue. Of course he would not give up such an opportunity, so he quickly followed him in.

On the way, I learned that this person was called Anna Duncan and was one of the shareholders of the United Rose Chamber of Commerce. "Look, where are all your friends? Go over and say hello. Remember to come over later and I'll arrange a chair for you."

After seeing Anna leave, a servant came over to arrange a seat and snacks for Lin Xingchen.

"Go get another chair so someone can sit over there later."

Anna left quickly and came back quickly. She saw Lin Xingchen sitting there reading a book and put a chair next to him.

"Thank you so much for letting me come in and listen."

"It's okay. I'm free anyway. Ms. Anna, you're welcome. You can try these snacks. Maybe you'll like them."

At this time, Charles' voice was heard from the main venue, "Welcome all distinguished guests to the Maple Leaf Chamber of Commerce. To make a long story short, we will offer 17 agency qualifications this time. Before the sale, I would like to reiterate the conditions of our agency qualifications to you once again.

The first thing is that as a supplier of goods, we have the right to set the highest price for the goods. This is done to allow everyone to buy and sell in a fair competitive environment.

Second, we have the right to know the local per capita consumption capacity and total sales amount of the agents. This is to facilitate price adjustment for everyone so that everyone can make a profit.

As for Article 3, after signing the contract, if the agent wants to terminate the contract, it needs to compensate the supplier for the losses. This is also to prevent someone from maliciously breaking the rules.

The fat guy said more than a dozen things, and gave a clear explanation for each one. "

Although many people in the audience wanted to rush up and kill him with a knife, in the end they just held their noses and listened to him finish the entire contract.

"The specific contract is as follows. I believe that everyone who can sit down has seen an envelope containing a sample of the contract. If anyone still doesn't hear clearly, I can wait for them to see it clearly before selling it to them."

"Charles, that's enough. We already know all your requests. Just start selling." Lin Xingchen leaned out to look at the man with a familiar voice and found that he was the one who invited Avril to the restaurant, so he ignored him.

"His name is Owen Griffin. He is the second son of the Griffin family, one of the five great dukes. This time he came here for the qualification of being the agent of their province."

"Ms. Anna seems to know a lot of nobles!"

"We do business and need to make friends with people of status, so we know more than you. I envy you for being able to do what you want to do without having to learn how to deal with people you don't like."

"Oh, how do you know that what I do is what I like to do? You know, being born means constantly compromising, and I am also constantly compromising."

"What I see in your eyes is happiness and joy. Maybe you are also compromising, but you are freer than me." Perhaps because she was talking about the sad part, Anna was a little depressed.

"You're wrong. Actually, my mind is full of things I don't like to think about right now, but I have to think about them and do them because I'm not alone. Since I can't get rid of all this, why not let myself enjoy those unhappy things happily? Anyway, one day of happiness is one day of unhappiness, right?"

"I really admire your carefree attitude. I really should learn from you."

"Right! To put it in a vulgar way, fate is like rape. If you can't resist, you have to learn to enjoy it. I've been raped twice, so I enjoy it."

"Although this sentence is very unpleasant and indecent, I can still understand the meaning behind it. Thank you for your guidance, Master Xingchen."

"You're welcome."

After she finished speaking, Lin Xingchen realized what she was calling him. It seemed that this woman was not as kind as she looked on the outside, and she was also very cunning inside.

The sales outside are already in full swing. Because we didn't know what method to use at the beginning, we adopted the method of open bidding competition. Although this is prone to the possibility of bid rigging, it also makes it easy to get a high price.

The priority areas for sales are some of the more marginal and backward provinces. Charles and his team have already studied these areas a long time ago, so it is best to give them priority to warm up the market.

Everyone was arguing overtly and covertly in the place, and Lin Xingchen, who was standing nearby, felt a little bored. After all, this kind of scene was extremely boring. There was no one who boldly said he had bought everything as shown in TV dramas or other storybooks.

"Master Xingchen finds it boring?" Anna asked softly.

"Let's call me Lin. This is my name. It's a bit boring. I thought someone from a big family would come out and shout that he took all the places. I guess I'm going to be disappointed if this happens."

"Ha... Mr. Lin, you are really funny. You also said that people from big families naturally receive a good education. As for the scene you mentioned, it actually does exist, but you can't see it today. If you go to the capital someday, I will take you to see it."

"Really? That's fine. I'll go to the capital someday and ask you to take me there. By the way, which region's agency qualifications do you have your eyes on?"

"Royal Capital"

"Wow... I didn't realize you guys are so generous! I'm not afraid to tell you that Wangdu is in my budget, but it's one of my most important money-making points."

"If you want to get this qualification, the price you need to offer will not be low."

"Lin, I'm not afraid to tell you that the four of us sisters have no intention of making money for the agency qualification of the royal capital this time."

"You are so cruel, aren't you afraid of offending people? After all, you have to know that my Maple Leaf Territory is nearly three months away from the capital. If something goes wrong along the way, you will lose everything."

"Thank you for your concern. Please allow me to keep this secret for a while. I will tell you after my sister and I get the agency qualification."

"It's so mysterious, I'll wait and see."

The transaction was actually done very quickly. After all, these people had been in Maple Leaf for more than a month, and some had even been there for more than two months. Whether it was a joint bid or a bid rigging, they definitely had their calculations.

Maybe I won’t make that much money this time, but I will definitely not lose money. It all depends on the methods of these people.

The trading quotas soon came to the most important areas of the battle. Charles originally proposed to take out the provinces where the four dukes were located in advance to test the courage of those people.

This proposal was rejected by Lin Xingchen, who repeatedly emphasized that the positions of the four dukes should be put last, and places like the royal capital should be given out in advance for them to fight over.

"Dear guests, would you be willing to pause for a moment so that everyone can have a rest?" Charles was simply asking for trouble by making such a request at this time.

As expected, amid the scolding, Charles quickly continued his work.

"The next step is to discuss the agency qualifications for the Royal Capital Province. Interested guests please prepare your offers. I will give you the lowest offer here."

"The capital is a few provinces with the lowest and highest bids. There are not many people who can afford to spend money. With the idea of ​​giving it a try, just in case it works, many chambers of commerce have put forward their own bids."

"At this time, Anna held the handrails tightly with both hands. Perhaps she held them too tightly and the backs of her hands turned white." The first round of price comparison came out quickly, and the winner was from a chamber of commerce from the northwest.

However, the Chamber of Commerce also knew that the highest score in the first round was nothing more than those people testing the price. The second round would be a real competition of strength. As for the third round, it would depend on who was more ruthless to them.

"Since you have so much confidence in your sister, you don't need to be so nervous. Just relax and try again next time if it doesn't work this time."

The waiter brought a cup of hot milk, and Lin Xingchen pushed it to Anna.

"You don't know how important this opportunity is to us sisters."

“There are always things in this world that surprise you. If you lose something in the east, you may be able to find it back in the west and even get more. The prerequisite is that you have a heart that can tolerate the loss at that time.”

In tense moments, one cannot listen to what others say. Lin Xingchen did not say much. He picked up his book and slowly flipped through it. Anyway, he was definitely not in a hurry.

"The third round of bidding for the King's Capital Agency Qualification has ended, so I now announce that the winning Chamber of Commerce is..."

"United Rose Chamber of Commerce... Congratulations to the beautiful Ms. Avril, you really amaze me." This time Charles' compliment was sincere.

"Congratulations, your sister did not disappoint you. I am looking forward to the price you offer." Lin Xingchen stretched out his right hand.

Ever since she heard the name Charles read out, Anna relaxed completely. Seeing Lin Xingchen's outstretched hand, she also playfully shook hands with Lin Xingchen.

"I won't let you down, I promise."

After the royal capital, there will be fighting at several other key points. After a bloody battle, there will naturally be winners but there will be more losers.

There are sixteen places, and only four are left, which is what everyone has agreed to. It all depends on how it ends.
