Chapter 205 Relax In The Bath Center
Chapter 205 Relax In The Bath Center
It was precisely because of their interest that the higher-ups of the Imperial City Mage Association negotiated, and finally Edmund, who also served as an enshrined member of the royal family, came to Los Angeles.
The purpose of Edmund's coming to Los Angeles was not only to confirm the authenticity of North's words, but also to send an invitation letter to Wang Zibin on behalf of the Imperial Mages Association.
The status of North in front is not high and not representative.
And Edmund, vice president of the Imperial City Mage Association, can fully represent the Imperial Capital Mage Association.
Therefore, in Edmund's view, Wang Zibin will be a member of his mage association sooner or later, so he must protect the calf.
Besides, he originally looked down on Steel Wing, a knight who broke through the eighth rank by relying on monsters.
That's why every time Steel Wing opened his mouth to speak, Edmund immediately turned on him.
After the quarrel between Steel Wing and Edmund in "Zero Eighty-Seven", Princess Huiyue suppressed certain emotions to the bottom of her heart,
Then, Eldest Princess Huiyue led the two of them into the trading area next to the pier.
The dazzling princess Huiyue naturally attracted the attention of the people in the trading area.
But they all understand that such a person is either rich or noble, and they can't afford to provoke them.
So they took a few glances, and continued to do their own things honestly.
In the trading area, there are endless voices of quotations and bargaining.
Princess Huiyue noticed that every certain distance, there must be a different slave standing there.
As for why they are different, it is because they are uniformed in Los Angeles compared to other slaves.
These slaves have a big "tax" written on their clothes.
And they are not standing there, but rather busy.
After each side of the transaction is concluded, the person who made the transaction will invite them over, and then witness the transaction, and hand over the money and goods certificate.
The Eldest Princess Huiyue, who was very curious about this, stopped a passing steward casually, and asked him about these people.
The steward who passed by was very respectful to Princess Huiyue, and didn't even dare to look directly at her, so she lowered her head and replied:
"Reporting to your lord, that is the tax collector of Los Angeles.
"Every transaction at the terminal requires them to witness and ensure the authenticity of the goods.
"And Los Angeles will extract a certain percentage of taxes from every transaction..."
As soon as the steward finished speaking, Princess Huiyue exclaimed:
"You mean, Los Angeles will tax every transaction?!"
The steward nodded, affirming the fact,
"Aren't you at a disadvantage?" It's no wonder Eldest Princess Huiyue asked this question, but she knew that there was already a berthing fee for ships to dock at the pier.
And now that tax is imposed on every transaction, wouldn't that be equivalent to an extra layer of skinning?
Is it too bad for the fleet?
However, regarding Eldest Princess Huiyue's words, she shook her head in a matter-of-fact manner, and denied such a statement:
"My lord, that's not the case."
"While LA docks tax the trade, they manage our cargo."
"And also ensured the quality of each shipment.
"This is simply too convenient for us."
"Compared with other terminals, I personally think that the trading model of the Los Angeles terminal is better..."
Indeed, compared to other terminals where they often have to worry about the authenticity of the goods, the Los Angeles terminal allows them to not worry at all.
In this case, it will be more convenient for them and reduce the loss of goods.
Seeing the steward go away, Princess Huiyue was a little silent:
Is this what he is capable of?
Excessive taxation can actually make the fleet willing and more satisfied?
At this time, Princess Huiyue's first thought was to bring this model back to the imperial capital.
If the docks of the imperial capital can also use this model, then the income will undoubtedly increase a lot.
It's just that after Eldest Princess Huiyue thought about it carefully, she bitterly gave up on this idea:
The pier of the imperial capital is controlled by multiple forces, let alone the difficulty of implementing this model.
Just to ensure the authenticity and effectiveness of the goods, it is difficult to push on.
Because many of the cargo losses of the fleet at the wharf over there were caused by those big forces themselves!
So it shouldn't be too difficult to make them stop and interrupt others' extended hands.
Under what circumstances can it be done?
At least he must be like Los Angeles, with one word and one word, and control the entire pier alone.
In this way, the intricate relationship between forces can be eliminated.
Steel Wing and Edmund naturally didn't know what Eldest Princess Huiyue was thinking, but they could tell from the manager's words that the earning power of Los Angeles Pier was beyond their imagination!
"This kid has a really dark heart!"
Steel Wing's envy, jealousy and hatred immediately overflowed...
This time, Edmund rarely refuted, but secretly rejoiced in his heart:
That guy from North is right. This kid's ability to make money is really amazing.
But the more powerful the better, what the Imperial City Mage Association lacks is this kind of talent!
Princess Huiyue, who understood some of Wang Zibin's tricks, originally wanted to refute Steel Wing.
But after hesitating for a while, he didn't choose to speak:
Because she knew that it would be very difficult for her to make offerings to two royal families who didn't know how to do business, and to explain the truth...
On this day, Eldest Princess Huiyue and the two royal family members stayed in the area of Los Angeles Pier without going to other places.
In the City Lord's Mansion, Wang Zibin, who heard Markas report the whereabouts of Princess Huiyue and her party, laughed:
What else are you talking about to investigate the huge Warcraft riot?
It was only the second day after I came here, and I went to the Los Angeles pier for a day.
There's a giant monster riot with a hammer in there!
Fortunately, the eldest princess Huiyue, who returned to the hotel at night, seemed to have thought of this too.
If there is one, go catch someone else's wharf to investigate the Warcraft riot.
So on the third day when they came to Luocheng, Princess Huiyue took two royal family members to worship and entered the Xingyue Mountain Range.
Anyway, this is also the main task, even if it is doing something like 4.6.
The Xingyue Mountains that entered in the morning, the Eldest Princess Huiyue came out in the evening.
Seeing the three of them, a magic beast, came out in a hurry and was in charge of receiving their slaves, he suggested that they could go to the bathing center to relax.
Seeing Princess Huiyue's pretty face changing color, Yu hurriedly explained:
"My lord, I guarantee that the bathing center in Los Angeles must be serious..."
After having this explanation, Princess Huiyue realized that she wanted to go wrong.
So her complexion returned to normal, but she had no interest in going to the bathing center at all, so she refused.
After the eldest princess Huiyue refused, Edmund, who protected her, naturally also refused.
But after Steel Wing rolled his eyeballs, he said that Edmund alone was enough to protect him, then turned around and headed for the bathing center...
