The slave trade is actually a new industry in xuanzhu County silver blood Association. Except for a few crab eating chambers of Commerce fleets, other chambers of Commerce have not been involved in this business.

It's not that businessmen have a conscience, but that they think this business has high profits but greater risks. They just need to hold on to their current business and make a lot of money. If they have the opportunity to pick up money, they will pick up money, but if it's dangerous to pick up money, they won't thank you.

The slave trade does not mean that slaves in Dongyang district are transported to other places to sell piglets. It is said that Dongyang district is actually short of people. Not to mention Jingjia, a large slave owner, other chambers of commerce that set up factories prefer to use slaves to replace workers. Local slave chambers of Commerce have digested themselves and can't sell them.

In fact, the process of slave trade is to start from xuanzhu County, transport weapons, grain and other important materials to the skyline, sell them to the skyline warlords to obtain gold and silver, purchase prisoners of war and exiles as slaves, and then transport them to the scarti slave seller with few people, obtain a large number of planting products from the scarti landlord, and return to xuanzhu county. After a round, you can obtain a large amount of gold and silver and agricultural products, which is extremely profitable.

From the process, it can be seen that the slave trade rose only after the riots in the skyline. It is precisely because there are too many refugees in the skyline who can't live, so they are willing even if they know they are going to be transported to an unknown country such as Scarlett. It just seems that Scarlett has just experienced a round of civil strife and urgently needs population to resume production. Slaves, landlords and chambers of commerce can take a shot.

Although the slave trade process is very profitable, there are many problems in it. The biggest problem is that such trade is not sustainable - as long as the skyline settles down, this trade will break the key chain. No one thinks that the skyline can be chaotic for decades. They conclude that this is a "small business" that can only last a few years, and the chamber of Commerce, which is used to doing "big business" for hundreds of years, naturally disdains it.

Even the Jings feel that "human trafficking" is a little longer than the "slave trade".

At present, the small businesses in the slave trade are basically the small chambers of commerce at the bottom of the list. In fact, Jing Zhengwei also wants to participate in this industry. This money may be a dust to the Jing family, but it is a mountain to Jing Zhengwei. Moreover, Jing Zhengwei backs on the signboard of Jing family. He wants to enter. Other chambers of commerce only dare to welcome him and dare not refuse.

But Jing Zhengwei still didn't intervene.

Of course, this is not Jing Zhengwei's conscience, but that he feels there is a long-term risk.

The skyline area is vast in territory and resources, with strong folk customs. Most of them are people who sing elegantly. Now they are in chaos. Everyone rushed to cut a wave of leeks. After the unification and integration of the skyline, will they forget that Dongyang businessmen once sold their families' wives and daughters as slaves?

Now the upstarts who jumped the most because of the slave trade, their money will always flow into other industries of the silver blood society. According to Jing Zhengwei's understanding of the upper echelons of the silver blood society, it is estimated that when there is a sign of unification in the skyline, they will deliberately make friends with the new warlords, and then unite with the chamber of commerce that made money from the slave trade before the slaughter, and give them as a compensation gift to the new warlords, so that the new warlords can win the hearts of the people.

Send a sum of money and punish yourself for three cups, and then it's over.

Otherwise, why do you think there are 88 chamber of Commerce places in Yinxue? There are many things that old chamber of commerce is inconvenient and unfit to do. Only the chamber of commerce at the bottom who wants to be popular will take risks. Once successful, the established chamber of Commerce will reap its own profits with the market; Once something goes wrong, they will push the "provisional chamber of Commerce and industry" to take the blame, send money and apologize, and clean themselves up at the same time.

Silver blood association is an old capitalist. They can always cut leeks - even the bottom chamber of commerce is their leeks.

Yue Yu immediately stood up and was so frightened that Qinglan quickly pulled him: "young master, wait for me to finish."

"In fact, there is no problem in the account book." Qinglan said, "they are all normal sea trade exchanges, and the route you choose is also the East Triangle. The type of goods is similar to slave merchant ships. I have no substantive evidence."

Although Jing Zhengwei did not engage in the slave trade, he also chose to do business in the skyline - what business makes the most money? Of course it's the arms and grain business! After the riots in the skyline area, all the people's fat and ointment looted by aristocratic families fell into the hands of warlords. Of course, they wanted to exchange gold and silver for urgently needed goods.

However, xuanzhu county's weapons production is not high, that is, jingzhengwei has the mineral of red moon fortress, which belongs to the upstream material provider of the weapons industry. With this relationship, it took part of the weapons share from other chambers of Commerce. Only the weapons and grain are not loaded in merchant ships, so some living goods are transported to Scarlett for sale.

"But some small changes have taken place in recent months." Qinglan continued: "six months ago, director Bai decided to increase the purchase of food and fruit, reduce the share of daily necessities, and add a number of new products: Grace lock."

Yue Yu was silent for a moment and said, "he told me at that time that Scarlett's big landlord also had many slaves, and there was a big gap in the grace lock."

Grace lock, a high-tech gadget from xuanzhu County, naturally had a wide market in Scarlett, where slavery was prevalent. Jing Zhengwei felt that director Bai had a keen sense of business at that time, so he asked him to be fully responsible for the specific affairs of sea trade. Jing Zhengwei usually didn't interfere more than checking accounts.

Unlike Leyu, Jing Zhengwei is not lazy. He just needs to control the direction of the industry. He doesn't have to do everything himself. After all, the highest level of "Qin day" is full of love, but he sticks to his heart. In addition to every night's Qin day, during the day, he also has to swim in the mountains and water with his new wife to cultivate his feelings.

In addition, I devote myself to my work wholeheartedly. Instead, Jing Zhengwei, the master of caution, soaks in the gentle Township hero grave every day.

The more deep love, the more intense, the more cruel.

When Qinglan was working, Yue Yu took the initiative to sit next to him and read. It was more or less influenced by Jing Zhengwei - otherwise, he would certainly stay in the Battle Card hall and continue to score.

"In the past six months, the fleet has carried out three trade in the East Triangle. There are a large number of grace locks in each cargo. Each time they sell grace locks, they get a large amount of funds, and all accounts are right. Suddenly, it seems that there is no problem." Qinglan helped her glasses: "but director Bai forgot a key thing."

Speaking of this, Qinglan paused and looked at Yueyu. Yueyu looked at her quietly.

"Childe, can you guess what key information director Bai forgot to tamper with?"

"I can't guess what information director Bai forgot to tamper with, but I guess I'll probably kick you out of bed tonight."

Qinglan tilted her lips and continued: "there are also light energy replenishers sold to the landlord of Scarlett together with grace locks. There were seven light energy replenishers in the trade products six months ago, but there was only one in the trade products four months ago. Now there is only one in the returning fleet. However, the number of grace locks has not decreased, but increased!"

Yue Yu suddenly understood.

Grace lock is like a mobile phone. Each slave can only install one. Therefore, if you want to sell more, you must expand your customer base. After all, there are so many servants of a landlord, and they will soon be filled with grace locks.

The seven replenishers six months ago are equivalent to seven sets of grace locks, which can be sold to seven customers, but only one is shipped twice later, and the total number of grace locks increases instead of decreasing, which means that these grace locks are sold to one customer!

A customer doesn't have to and can't eat so many grace locks, and it doesn't conform to the business principle: this kind of bulk goods that can only be sold to one customer, and few customers have the conditions to buy them. What's more, grace locks are not necessities. They can press the price madly. Anyway, if you don't sell them to me, others won't buy them.

In Scarlett, you can eat as many goods as you come. At present, there is only one thing: slaves.

Coupled with the increase in the proportion of grain and fruit, reducing the carrying capacity of daily necessities to make room, the answer is almost imminent.

"The grace lock was not sold to the landlord Scarlett, but a gift tied to the hands and feet of the slaves." Yue Yu said: "... That is to say, the fleet colluded with the white supervisor?"

Slave trafficking needs to be carried out by the fleet. Only when supervisor Bai colludes with the fleet can he do this under the eyes of Jing Zhengwei.

So, does Jing Zhengwei know that his men do such things?

Yue Yu searched his memory and was stunned.

He sat down slowly. Qinglan looked at him carefully and said, "if you give me more time, I may find more evidence..."

"Evidence?" Yue Yu smiled gently: "I'm the eldest young master of the Jing family. Why should I explain to others?"

The implication is that it doesn't matter whether there is evidence or not.

"By the way, when will the fleet come back“

"Tomorrow or the day after tomorrow, if there is a storm on the way, it may be later."

"In that case... OK." Yue Yu closed the biography of the God of fire, stood up and walked out. Qinglan asked, "young master, are you looking for director Bai to confront?"

"No, I'll go out."

"I'll go too." Qinglan stood up.

"Have you finished your work? Do you still want to go out?" Yue Yu said in a tone of hatred.

"Oh." Qinglan sat down.

"I'll go out for dinner when I come back at noon." Yue Yu stopped at the door, thought for a while and asked, "do you like iced honey five flower tea?"

Qinglan blinked: "... I like to drink coconut milk."

"Where do they sell?"

"Old friends of damenshi street."

"Hmm..." Yue Yu held his hand and thought for a while, and tut said, "OK."
