Gold coin is justice

Chapter 233 Unfair Competition

"Then... Your Excellency, you see, now our economic income has completely suppressed the song of the mermaid. According to my thoughts, we should be able to advertise in large numbers and attract more wealthy people to us to commission work. ——"

"From tomorrow, all guild commissioned activities will be free."

Before the poison needle was finished, Norris suddenly issued the guidelines for the next guild operation.

Such a decision really made Poison Needle feel a little puzzled. He looked at his master with a pair of suspicious eyes, and his eyes showed an expression of doubting that he had heard it wrong.

"That... Your Excellency Viscount? Forgive me, I seem to be a little confused recently... That..."

"You don’t have a hard ear, and I’m not mistaken. Let’s make an advertisement. Starting tomorrow, all missions of our Honey Pot Guild will not charge a commission fee of one iron coin. The discount period is as long as one month. Start charging. You just put out the ad."

The poisonous needle was still an expression of incomprehension.

But although he didn't understand, he knew very well whether the expression on his master's face allowed him to ask questions.

After thinking about it, he did not ask any doubtful questions after all. Instead, he nodded seriously: "Yes, Your Excellency. I will make this advertisement as good as I can! Please be sure. rest assured!"

Seeing that although the poisonous needle was not very clever in his mind, he was still obedient to direct orders, and Norris was a little relieved.But since this guy's brain is really not very smart, and he likes to use some cleverness, Norris feels that he still needs a patch-

"You have to remember clearly that you are commissioning work for free. This advertisement is not for fun. You must be really in Pelican Town, desperately promoting this ad, and facing the commissioned work We must also do our best to complete without any disgust or disgust. Regardless of any commission, even if the song of the mermaid personally commissioned the work, we must treat it with a professional attitude and do our best to complete it."

It can be seen that Poison Needle's face has some incomprehension.But it doesn't matter, as long as this guy nods seriously, then it doesn't matter.

Having said this, Norris thought for a while, and added another sentence: "That’s right, even though the song of the mermaid has to be commissioned, it must be completed. But if the song of the mermaid raises obvious problems, you may even be asked to go. You can't refuse the dead work task, you must follow. On the contrary, you must inform me of this information as soon as possible. Hmm... Also, it is not just the song of mermaid, if you find other townspeople Suddenly there will be some very strange commissions, revealing a weird atmosphere, and most likely to put your life in danger, please tell me immediately."

For these, the poisonous needle still agreed.But Norris could see that although he agreed, his expression was still full of strangeness and confusion.

It is obviously not a good working mood to let your subordinates work with problems.Norris decided to play some of his own "gentleness", smiled and said: "You have a problem?"

Seeing his master smile, Poison Needle thought for a while, and decided to bring up the question in his heart: "That...Your Excellency, the mission given by Song of Mermaid...we all have to take this task? What are the benefits next?"

Regarding this, the lord leaned comfortably on the chair, with a smile on his face, and slowly said, "Benefits? Haha."

"As long as the song of the mermaid dares to make that kind of commission to us, then we can have a good show~~"

————

Airo knew that his troubles were far from over.

This kind of result is actually not difficult to foresee. It can even be said that from the beginning, he has thought that this kind of result will be absolute.

Now, Airo is quite sure, this honeypot guild, that Viscount Norris must have received some kind of instruction from the capital, this kind of instruction can definitely make him kill his mermaid song at any cost. .

Therefore, the honeypot will now offer this kind of price war measure that kills one thousand and self-injures 800.Although it seems that it only lasts for a month, I believe that even if it is charged after a month, it will definitely not be expensive.It looks like that Norris is here to beat himself completely!

Sitting in the rest area of ​​the guild hall, watching Daddy Lumbering is now sorting out the bulletin board of the guild.There was nothing on the bulletin board, let alone work, even a fly would feel that it was barely suitable for resting.

Buffy flew down from the second floor with the iron fruit flapping its wings and landed on the resting table.

While pouring magic power into the fruit, she looked at the empty guild hall and said, "President Airo, it’s not as good as us, and it’s free?"

Ai Luo smiled, noncommittal.

If there is a price war, his financial resources will not be able to match the lord behind the honey pot.If you really follow the other person's pace, then it is really over.

At this time, Brad also came back from a run outside. He picked up the towel and wiped the sweat on his forehead. Seeing the helpless look of Airo now, think about the honey that has been raging outside these two days. The news of the free job, no matter how slow, he knew what his president was upset about.

"President Airo! Actually I have an idea, I don't know if you do it?"

Brad walked up to Airo and said vowedly--

"Isn't that honeypot saying that it's completely free? So how about we entrust them to work if we make a mistake?"

As soon as Buffy heard it, her small face became sharp, and she immediately flew up and stopped in front of Brad's nose, reaching out to light his nose: "Silly big guy, we are a hostile guild! What is it that we go to the hostile guild to join in?"

Brad shook his head quickly and explained: "No, no, I didn't mean that! Buffy, just listen to me. I mean, since they are all free, then we simply entrust them with some ordinary work. For example, Help us clean the guild, help us run errands, and keep their guild members busy, then the townspeople can't entrust them with work, the townspeople will come to us to entrust them too?"

Ai Luo just gave a wry smile and shook his head gently: "The job entrustment does not mean that it is a choice between our mermaid song and the honey pot. The townspeople will entrust it, very To a large extent, the other party keeps it free. So they also entrust all the things they can do by themselves. If we squeeze their work, then the townspeople will also do the work by themselves instead of entrusting us. ."

Brad froze for a moment, then let out a slightly frustrated cry.

But this reminded Buffy that the flower fairy flew back in front of Airo and said: "President and President! Then we can just make a bit of damage and let them go to Neuschwanstein Castle to destroy the monster again? Or It’s not bad to let them visit the mines of the Eternal Sleeping Mountains! There is also the Shining Forest. What we have been exploring is only some of the surface of the Shining Forest, right? I think there is a very powerful natural magic in the depths of the forest, we can let them go Investigate it!"

Ai Luo smiled: "Well, this is a good idea."

"Yeah! Yeah! Then I'll entrust it now! Big guy! Let's go!"

"okay!"

"Give me all back!"

Ai Luo felt like he shouldn't be joking with this pair of partners, sighed, and said--

"You can't do this kind of thing. If we do it, Viscount Norris will be holding our handle. There are several ways I can think about it. The easiest one is to directly face the town. The people proclaimed that we used their free stage and sent them to death on purpose. This is equivalent to instantly building our Mermaid Song into an evil guild for making money and scorning the lives of others. Our guild’s reputation in Pelican Town will immediately plummet. , So it’s absolutely impossible."

The expressions of the pair of partners who were very excited just now became gloomy.But after just a few seconds, Buffy raised his hand again: "Then...just like last time, do we invite some other people to entrust them to do this?"

The method is a good method, but this method has been used once, then the poisonous needle may not be noticed, but Viscount Norris will not be fooled a second time.

Therefore, Ai Luo still smiled, analyzed the pros and cons to them, shook his head and rejected the proposal.

Brad was a little anxious, and said: "This is not okay, that is not okay! Chairman, what should we do next? Since the end of the guild war, we have hardly made any money. We really want to be suppressed. Is it dead?"

In this regard, there is really no good way at present.

This is exactly what Airo is worrying about.

In fact, there is no way to say anything. He had imagined this situation as early as when he was studying in school.If he is allowed to act as the chief financial officer of the Blue Bay Empire, he will definitely introduce an anti-monopoly law in the first place, and the strategy for prohibiting price wars must be formulated!

Such things as price wars, although on the surface, seem to be very beneficial to the common people.is not that right?On the one hand, seizing the market through ultra-low prices is tantamount to making all the people cheaper.

But here is the problem. The party with strong capital can completely destroy its competitors through price wars and lose a very small portion of its profits.After there are no competitors, you can completely monopolize the entire market.At that time, he plans to set a price for his product, and the common people will have to pay for it!Because there are no other branches, the civilians will not even have the qualifications to bargain!
