Gumido has already gotten up and is enjoying a hearty breakfast.
Of course, apart from some natural fruits, the cooked food is not that delicious and is just edible at best.
Gumido put a piece of salty meat into his mouth and chewed it, and couldn't help but sigh.
The taste is far worse than the noodles I ate in Pippi’s tent!
Outside the mansion, a businessman under Gumido's command trotted towards the mansion from a distance and was stopped by the beast slave at the door.
"I have something important to discuss with Lord Gumido!"
The shouting at the door was naturally heard by the diners inside. Gumido winked at a tall and narrow slave servant beside him, and the latter nodded and went out.
Gumido, the Aknisen merchant who was brought in by the slave servants, had an impression that if this guy had not succumbed to the temptation and ate the noodles in Pippi's tent, she and the other members of the caravan would have waited foolishly for a long time.
"Tell me, what's the matter?"
That Aksen wiped the dust off his face. He was very scared when he heard the news today. He had bet all his treasures on the Dawn Merchant Group.
"Mr. Gumido, this morning in an alley in the Chamber of Commerce Capital, the merchant Dororik of the Dawn Merchant Group was found dead on a rainy night..."
"What!? Who did it?"
Gumido put down the cutlery and stood up from his seat.
"I don't know! I can only be sure that it happened during the heavy rain last night. The residents around didn't hear any noise, and there were no signs of a fight. It was either suicide, or the victim was much stronger than the deceased."
Gumido paced back and forth, not knowing what he was thinking about.
"Who is this Doloric? Is there anything special about him?"
The merchant who came to report was named Suosuo. He was relatively familiar with the Shuguang Merchant Group, so he was able to answer this question.
"My son really wants to join the Dawn Merchants Group, so I have also learned about the structure of the Dawn Merchants Group. Dororik is considered to be older in the Dawn Merchants Group and has certain business experience and resources."
Gumido narrowed his eyes.
"Are there many people like this in the Dawn Merchant Group?"
Soso answered truthfully.
"Not many. Most of the people who join Shuguang are young people, so it is not very attractive to experienced businessmen."
“Creaky…”
The golden metal cutlery was bent directly by Gumido.
"What a trick! Without Pipi, the young Shuguang Merchants want to operate. Such experienced merchants should be very important. The murderer may want to cause chaos in the Shuguang Merchants!"
But who has such a huge conflict of interest with the Dawn Merchant Group that they would not hesitate to take action in such a drastic manner?
Not only Gumido was guessing, but Sicily Zuo, the wealthy merchant who infiltrated the Dawn Merchant Group with Padolorik, was also guessing who had such a deep grudge against the Dawn Merchant Group.
As for whether Dororik was discovered, he thought it was impossible because Dororik was now a member of the management of the Dawn Merchant Corps. Everything had been normal from the establishment of the Corps to now. It should be a normal period of time to eliminate the lurkers. Now that Pippi is not here and the Dawn Merchant Corps is being suppressed again, wouldn't it be disrupting their own situation to do so?
The fact is just as the outside world speculated, everyone in the Dawn Merchant Corps’ headquarters is now filled with indignation.
Some people even suggested going to the Chamber of Commerce to cause trouble, but were dissuaded by some rational members.
The current situation is to avoid confusion and temporarily hand over the matter to the Chamber of Commerce's inspection system to handle it, although this system has always been almost inefficient.
But this suppressed anger infected all the members of the merchant group and made them very resentful. As a group of young people who had already understood the racial corruption in Aksen, they regarded the Dawn Merchant Group as the hope of their race.
Now that the head of the merchant group is not here, we can only swallow this loss and bear it with all our might.
Perhaps if it were the former Aksen clan, this kind of news would quickly dissipate over time, and at most be circulated among the upper classes after dinner.
But things are different now. The emergence of the "Business Opportunity Information Guide" has made the speed and popularity of information transmission so exaggerated.
The latest issue came out the day after the murder, a day earlier than originally scheduled.
When Wei Kewei got the first copy of the trial edition to check, he was stunned for a long time. An article he wrote about a murder case was changed by the editor, but it was obvious at a glance that it was better and more powerful than his original version.
If it were Wikwei in his former business days, he would definitely be annoyed and teach the guy who made the changes without permission a lesson, but now he is only proud of this editor, because in his opinion, this editor was undoubtedly brought up by him and was part of his personal achievements, and therefore could help Pippi better.
So Weikewei waved his hand and approved the mass production of Magic Pattern Journal according to this trial issue!
Just like that, the "Business Opportunity Information Guide", which had always been released on time, was unprecedentedly released a whole day earlier, one day after the murder of a member of the Dawn Merchant Group.
Regardless of whether this is related or not, and regardless of whether other Aksens have thought of this level, those waiting to buy still rushed in as soon as possible.
Among them were merchants and college representatives who came to the Chamber of Commerce capital to purchase the journals the day before, as well as slaves of some big shots. The first ones to purchase the journals were often pirates, because of the huge profits, they were faster than anyone else.
Sometimes, a normal Aksen caravan, without any other special means or power, would need at least half a year to travel from the Aksen Chamber of Commerce capital in Lobelika to the farthest Aksen ethnic group settlement.
But the amazing thing is that the speed at which pirated journals spread is incredible. Often within a few days after the genuine journal comes out, the pirated journals can be bought in the farthest Aksen community. Sometimes, you can even magically see one or two genuine copies appear there. It has to be said that for the sake of profit, businessmen always do their best.
In an Aksen Chamber of Commerce College, a student excitedly rushed into the dormitory holding a pirated copy of the "Business Opportunity Information Guide".
"The latest version!! Only one day later than the Chamber of Commerce Capital!! Anyone want to see it?"
With this shout, he became the focus of the students in just a few breaths. The students who gathered around him were like koi carps that gathered in the pond of a scenic spot when being fed.
They gathered together in the dormitory, and the student who got the journal used his magic power to interpret the magic patterns and share them.
There is an article in the middle of the journal that is naturally particularly eye-catching.
"Will the dawn of Aksen be extinguished?"
This title immediately captures the hearts of all readers, regardless of whether they intend to join the Dawn Merchant Group or not.
“I am the founder of Business Opportunity Information Guide. My name is Wei Kewei. Maybe you have heard of me, maybe not. It doesn’t matter.
Like you, I have witnessed the rise and prosperity of the journal and witnessed how it changed Aksen's lifestyle!
But the credit cannot be attributed entirely to me, in fact I only contributed a small part.
The big boss of the journal in your eyes, the tolerant genius, was just a down-and-out businessman a few years ago.
I am not ashamed. Compared to me, many Aksens have defined the bottom line of shamelessness countless times.
Yes, I was very embarrassed at that time, but to what extent?
Well, I couldn’t pay the Chamber of Commerce dues, and the Chamber of Commerce’s on-duty steward almost stripped me of my merchant vest!”
Seeing this, the students looked around in amazement. How could a legendary figure like Weikewei actually have such a moment?
Compared with the current achievements of Weikewei, this strong contrast conflict immediately grabs the desire to read more strongly.
"Is it ridiculous? There's something even more ridiculous! When I squeezed out every last crystal shield on my body to pay the membership fee, the manager still wanted to strip me of my merchant vest!"
how so!?
Many students were shocked. They paid the membership fee. Why?
"Why? I think there must be an Akenisen who would have this doubt. Of course, this Akenisen must be a young person or a student who has not yet graduated. But I, who had been doing business for many years, also had this doubt. Maybe I am really not suitable for business!
When I asked the question, the manager just looked at me with contempt and said, "Looking at you like this, you will definitely not be able to pay next time."
Yes, he squeezed out my last bit of money and then took away my only remaining hope and dignity!
That was the darkest moment of my life!"
There is no need to go into details. The younger generation who read this article were angry and shocked. The cruelty of the Aksen clan was more intuitively displayed here.
As for the older generation, whether they are successful businessmen or not, readers will also feel deeply moved when they read this. Very few people can be successful from the beginning. Wei Kewei’s narration has brought back some bad memories of their past. Maybe they are not as exaggerated as Wei Kewei’s predicament, but there are more or less similar shadows in it, and there is a special resonance.
"In my moment of despair, light appeared. It was Pippi! My lifelong friend! I don't know what he was thinking at the time, but I am a magical creature after all. I can feel that he has no contempt for my spirit, nor any sympathy!
Yes, there is no sympathy, because he wanted to leave me a bit of dignity, he took out a magic crystal, and very interestingly paid the dues for both of our lifetimes. Well, I calculated that if I can live for 12,000 years, I should still need to pay the next dues. "
The dormitory felt relaxed for a moment and everyone laughed. Not only here, but most readers would laugh when they saw this to relieve the previous depression.
"Pipi often said, 'No one is born great', and it was this sentence that laid the foundation for my current achievements! Legendary Journal founder Wikwei received funding from Pipi and began to discuss the future of Axelsen together!"
Up to this point, readers have the feeling of witnessing the birth of an epic and read with great interest.
“Sometimes, I wonder why Pippi’s thoughts are so different from ours, why I can trust him so much, and because of his trust in me, I must live up to his trust!
Until an editor wrote the content of "Dying Thoughts", until the time of the business achievement conference...
I see!
Why is Pipi different from others? Because he is destined to change the existence of the Aksen clan. He is the hope that fate brings to the Aksen clan!
'Let's find that water magic orb!'
Who still remembers this sentence? Or, who will forget this sentence?
I was there at the time. I will never forget the roar, the catharsis, and even the tears of emotion until my death!
Just like the name of the merchant group created by Pippi - Dawn!
There is no use of "gems" and "gold coins". This title seems old-fashioned to many Aksens, but it also best illustrates Pippi's ideals.
How did the Shuguang Merchants Group do it?
It’s been less than two years since its establishment, right?
As far as I know, they went to Magasin 7 times, to Delan Gardens 4 times, to Badrigao 2 times... and I don't know how many more times.
Moreover! We have found more than a dozen suspected clues and are trying our best to dismantle the information!
Why do they work so hard?
'Pipi! Why are you working so hard! Your wealth is not infinite! The Dawn Merchants Group is still running out of money! Why are you working so hard! Do you know how many wealthy merchants in Aknisen are waiting to see you fall from the clouds! Do you know what you will look like after you fall?'
I once asked him this roar!
Without any cuts, I yelled at him in such a bad manner. I am probably the only one in the entire Aksen who would do that in front of him!"
Although the words are fiercely critical, a strong sense of friendship has been projected into the hearts of every reader through the magic patterns. This feeling is very warm and enviable!
"Pipi was just comforting me at the time, telling me not to be angry, as if I was the one in danger instead of him. He told me that the water magic orb was not only Aksen's regret, but also Aksen's hope!
Is our race prosperous? It is just a false prosperity!
Aksen has been corrupted! Corrupted to the core! Corrupted to the point where he has no sense of security no matter where he is!
When he told me this, I had no room for rebuttal.
So, he wanted to find the water magic orb. He said that he saw hope for the race from the anger and tears of the Aksens when they saw "Dying Thoughts".
He wants to save us! Save all of us Aksen, save our entire race!
Brick by brick, with the wealth he earned through hard work, he built up bit by bit a ray of light in the darkness of our race - the Dawn Merchant Group!
The reputation of the caravan even spread to foreign races, and it was transported in the name of a mysterious client, causing high-level creatures to take a new look at Aksen!
But Pippi's power is too weak, Dawn's power is too weak!
The ugliness of Aksen's tradition is too despicable!
The Dawn Merchant Group has become the dream of all the young generation of Aksen, and it also proves that the hope of our race is not slim. However, its gradual rise has already touched the interests of the traditional business community!
Yes, even though Suguang has been making losses, the suppression from the traditional business community has already begun!
Taking advantage of the absence of Caravan Master Pippi, they made some small moves in the Chamber of Commerce. On the rainy night of the previous day, Lord Dororik, one of the managers of the Dawn Caravan, was brutally murdered by vicious forces!
They are despicable and shameless! But the Dawn Merchants Group can do nothing about it!
Pipi is still far away in Magson, pursuing one of the clues of the water magic orb, pursuing the hope of awakening this race, and the merchant group he built...”
Seeing this, not only the younger generation, but many readers were moved and angry, and they clenched their fists with nowhere to wield.
"This is the Dawn Merchants Group formed by Pipi, and this is also the dawn of our Aksen! If the Dawn Merchants Group falls, if Pipi falls! My fellow Aksen people, you cannot imagine the cruelty of the business world!
Those skinny opponents wouldn't give him a chance to get back on his feet, as I barked questions at him that he always knew the answers to.
They will eat his flesh, drink his blood, drain his treasure house, and crush him to death without a burial place!
That time has come!
Do you think there will be another "Shuguang" or "Pipi" in Aksen in the future?
I hope so!
but!
Will there really be another one?"
The readers were silent and trembling!
Countless readers, whether they are college students, novice businessmen, or people who have struggled for many years but resonated with the article, all felt their scalps tingling.
Will there be another one? Many Aksens found themselves afraid to even think about the answer to this question!
