Lobelica World Chamber of Commerce Capital Fortune City.
Pippi no longer lives in the Chamber of Commerce suite, but has purchased a luxurious mansion here.
Having experienced the baptism of various types of buildings on Earth, Aksen's so-called mansion can only be regarded as quite vulgar in Pippi's eyes. There is no need to delve into the architectural aesthetics. It can be summed up in three words: tall, big, and shiny!
However, there are too many things in Aksen that need to be saved. Without destruction, there will be no construction. Naturally, the architecture will be a matter for a long time to come.
"Mr. Pipi, I'm here."
Inside the mansion, a guy who looked a little short even among the Aknisen came to Pippi under the guidance of the gatekeeper beast slave.
Looking at the three young and beautiful women Axison who were entangled with the wealthy businessman Pipi, he swallowed subconsciously.
The concept of makeup technology has never appeared in Kaknisen, but it is reflected in Pippi's mansion, making this inexperienced outsider always unconsciously attracted to the three women.
"Well, is it the slave trader Adokinsby who is about to set off?"
"Yes, Master Pipi. This time we are heading to the Xinghui Plateau and following the great slave trader who is an honorary member of the Chamber of Commerce like you, to the Delan Garden World."
Other worlds!
Pippi sat up suddenly.
"Who is that big slave trader?"
"Hey, well, you know, there are risks involved in betraying my employer!"
He glanced at the greedy face, then nodded to a beast slave.
After a while, a pocket as tall as Aksen's was thrown in front of him. From the jingling sound, it could be heard that it was full of Aksen's universal currency crystal shield, a kind of crystal containing various energy elements.
"Ten thousand crystal shields, no more, no less, it's equivalent to your income for half a year."
Axen opened his pocket with a slight tremor, looked at the intoxicating colors, and just by weighing the pocket, he knew that there were probably more than ten thousand and several hundred crystal shields, and then quickly stuffed them into his vest pocket.
"You are the most generous person in the tribe. That great slave trader is Gumido, a famous figure in the Chamber of Commerce who was introduced in the second issue of the Business Opportunities Information Guide. He once worked with..."
"Okay, I know that journal and I've read this one."
"Yes, yes, how could you not know? After all, your name was published in the first issue, and the second issue also listed you as the top businessman of the younger generation. Now you are very famous..."
Pippi showed the proper enjoyment of being flattered, and then chatted enthusiastically with this Aksen businessman who was usually looked down upon.
During the meal, he did not forget to take out a bottle of sports drink brought from Earth to entertain the other party. This packaging, which was obviously from another world, was a symbol of respectability, and the other party was flattered and was reluctant to drink it, so he hid it in his vest pocket.
When the other party left satisfied, the smile on Pippi's face gradually faded.
The little man who left was just a microcosm of the Aknisen merchants. As long as there was no commercial agreement contract with powerful magical benefits, anything could be sold for profit.
But commercial agreements are not omnipotent either. Arbitration-based agreements require evidence, and only by praying for witnesses from powerful magical beings can the contractual relationship be used to hunt down the defaulting party.
But if you can afford the price, you can find a way to let another magical creature fight against the contract witness, or you can escape to a world that the contract witness cannot reach. After all, Aksen is famous for taking advantage of loopholes in the world.
The cost of any agreement contract is high. The former will directly take 10% of the total trade profit;
In the latter case, you have to be able to afford the cost of convincing the other party that magic exists, so that they will fulfill their promise for the sake of that "penalty money".
…
In Treasure City, a lakeside city within Aksen's sphere of influence, a high-level Chamber of Commerce school is located in the center.
Different from the class system on Earth, there is no teaching according to students’ aptitude, no class division, and no responsible teachers.
All they had was the Chamber of Commerce providing them with food and lodging, and repeatedly instilling in them how to do business, as well as some magic pattern knowledge that they could learn on their own.
Occasionally, some lecturers come and claim to impart their experience but in fact they are just bragging about their own interests and wealth, which arouses the envy of many young individuals.
A young man named Aksen, who was about to graduate, ran excitedly into the large dormitory with a book in his arms. The huge round stone house was home to dozens of students.
"Look! What I got!!"
Some other students heard the sound and looked over, and found that he was holding a special book inlaid with gold, which emitted a faint magical fluctuation. Several magic patterns on the cover occasionally lit up yellow light and then slowly dimmed.
"The third issue of the Business Opportunity Information Guide!! You actually managed to get this!!"
"Hahahahaha, you didn't expect that! Last time, that old guy came here to brag. He was holding a copy of the second issue and showing off so much that he didn't even know what his name was!"
"That's right, it's not the first issue!"
Ever since he heard the old businessman read some wonderful success experiences in the second issue last time, Aksen from the school has memorized this journal.
This phenomenal product became popular very quickly. There were no genuine products, and there were many merchants who secretly copied and sold them all over the place, causing a craze in a short period of time.
The authentic ones are so rare and impossible to imitate that on the first day of the seven-day cycle, long queues would form before dawn at the Weikewei magazine store.
Getting a copy of the "Business Opportunity Information Guide" that is obviously genuine is really rare for students who are still in the Chamber of Commerce school and have no business income of their own.
Aksen is a person with weak emotions, but there are always exceptions. The man who got the authentic third issue is called Sidero. He has a father who loves him very much. It is a rare family with affection. The third issue was also bought by his father from the Chamber of Commerce Capital.
"Come on, come on, let's watch it together!!"
Even though the entire society has been corrupted by commercial interests, there is still a trace of pure land in the school, and the friendship between classmates has not yet been washed away by the money in the future.
Not only this dormitory, but some nearby rooms also came over to join in the fun after receiving the news.
"The young wealthy merchant, the newly promoted honorary member of the Chamber of Commerce, Mr. Pipi, will represent the Chamber of Commerce to give a speech at this Business Achievement Conference. His achievements and activeness prove that the young generation of Aksen is an indispensable and important individual in the tribe. He once told the interviewer of this magazine that 'the future belongs to the young!'..."
After reading this, all the transparent-eared monsters present were excited. Compared with those old businessmen who loved to show off, this was a role model.
Idols have a very strong guiding role, and creating stars is naturally an important means, which has begun to show results.
One person reads to everyone else, and if there are illustrations, they will be shown to everyone. With the eyesight of magical creatures, they can see clearly enough.
The contents of the journal became known to everyone little by little.
Then there are naturally some stories marked as "true events", ranging from success stories to failures.
An article titled “Things I Think of Before I Die” is placed at the end of this journal.
"I am a 200-year-old Aksen. My life is coming to an end. I am very happy that the famous Business Opportunity Information Guide came to interview me at this moment. I know this is a treatment only for big people. Yes, I am very happy. I have pretended to be happy countless times in my life, but this time is an exception."
Such an opening remark immediately attracted all the students.
What does an old businessman think about before he dies, a huge fortune or a luxurious funeral?
"More than a hundred years ago, I met an elf from Lake Morgan. Yes, one of the most magical creatures in the world, an elf! And for some reason, she liked me very much. I don't know if you can understand this story, but she believed everything I said..."
Elf? I like Aksen's elves!
This is really quite mysterious. Aksen is hated by many magical creatures, but to be liked to this extent by an elf is like a student reading a fantasy novel for the first time, which makes the readers feel inner restlessness.
"The next year, I sold her. I mentioned her unintentionally when I was doing business, and my buyer became very interested. They are distant relatives of the horned beasts, the Croatan insect orcs. In order to find the location of the lake, I got two horns shed by the horned beasts. That was a huge pot of gold that made me rich. I exchanged it for 50,000 crystal shields! I used this money..."
At this point in the story, some students in the dormitory were envious of the money, but most of them did not say anything.
The story then moves on to the businessman's rise to fame, and continues to the plot several years later.
"I passed by the lake again, and she was still there! Hahahaha... Those Croatan Orcs really overestimated their own abilities. They dared to capture an elf without enough strength!! I am really happy at this moment!!"
Seeing this, all the students felt a strange sense of relief.
"I tricked the lake elf into giving me her water magic orb without spending any money. I just said I had an enemy who wanted to attack me and wanted to borrow it, and she really gave it to me! Oh my god, are all elves so stupid!!"
The subsequent description is how to use this precious water magic orb to open up trade routes, find one's own passage to another world, and then sell the orb at a high value to the secret fairy from Magson.
Aksen's approach maximizes benefits and can be regarded as a teaching classic, but the students who saw it did not even comment on it.
Some women, in particular, had very serious expressions.
The story once again entered the history of wealth and success, and this went on for more than ten years.
"I tore up the contract and let my partner die at the hands of the Shadow Revenant. The witness of the contract was a powerful demon from the Saladin clan, the weaver of the world of Delan Garden. I was really too greedy. Now it's bad. He is actually in Lobelika. The moment the contract scroll self-immolated, I knew that he was coming to hunt me down!!"
"I thought of Lake Logan. If there is anyone I know who can stop the Weaver, it can only be the lake elf. But I have already sold her water magic orb. Just like a tree shepherd has no heart of nature... What should I do?!"
"Maybe there is another way!"
"I waited for the Spellweaver to arrive, but he seemed surprised at my calmness and didn't act immediately... I used my business talent to make a deal for my life, and thank God, he was very interested in the Lake Spirit!"
Seeing this, all the Aksens in the dormitory inexplicably felt a rare impulse and felt very depressed.
"I took the Spellweaver to Logan Lake. The demon tribe of Saladin is no longer the fool it used to be. He has gathered several helpers with magical aura..."
"She was very happy to see me, just like when we first met..."
At this point, the story did not continue with the battle between the elves and the weavers, but jumped directly to more than ten years later.
"I passed by Logan Lake again, but she didn't show up... I know she will never show up again, but every few years I'll make a point to pass by here..."
"Now I am dying... Her image appeared in my mind again. Are elves really stupid? I asked myself this again. Or is she the only one like this?"
"Now I am dying... I once wanted to find the magic orb that I sold, but many fairies were too arrogant to communicate with Axelsen."
"In this life, I have gained a lot, but it seems that I have lost a lot too!"
"Is the elf really that stupid? Or is she the only one?"
"It's from the great merchant Kekeilu, visiting before his death."
All the students were extremely depressed and unhappy, and they had a rage that they wanted to vent. Especially some female students, whose tear glands that had not been used for decades were activated.
The third issue of "Business Opportunity Information Guide" spread at an explosive speed. Among them, the first person to lead the "piracy" was not the other Aksens who seized the business opportunity, but Pipi himself.
"Last Thoughts" is influencing the younger generation at a terrifying speed.
As for the tomb of the great merchant Kekeyilu, it was razed to the ground by young and even some older Aknesens on the night the journal was published. Many waves of Aknesens who missed the opportunity searched back and forth for the cemetery that had been destroyed beyond repair, and used their strongest magic to make up for it.
Pippi, who had been hiding secretly on a distant hilltop, staring at the cemetery, was now echoing the words of his mentor in his dream.
"This is an unprecedented fantasy love story, coupled with a tragic and depressing ending. The conflict created a shocking impact on the soul. If this grave of Kekeilu can last until the next day, I lose!"
