Lanxi trading place has been living quite comfortably recently.
The high level of security within the territory has gradually increased the number of chambers of commerce in the empire, and now there are at least a hundred imperial chambers of commerce.
The daily trade throughput is even close to tens of millions, and the shipping merchant ships that go back and forth are basically non-stop.
Moreover, not only has it become a trading place, it can also cultivate a large number of entertainers or believers.
If other empires accept their entry, their stability will be improved. Therefore, the Lanxi people are now very popular.
As for the ruler Charlemagne, he has long since entered a happy life of lying down.
However, commercial competition is no easier than military war.
As the Lanxi trading area continued to grow, some people began to see it no longer.
"Is it successfully introduced?"
"Yes, it's just a pity that it was killed by the Star Eater before it could lead to the key galaxy."
In a conference room, seventeen rulers were opening communication messages with each other. Most of them were trading empires, discussing how to develop projects for Lanxi.
Manfu Business Group is a trade alliance they formed together.
They were about to develop their ambitions in the Sixth Sector, but they didn't expect that the trade area in Lanxi was so prosperous, which put their prepared development strategy at a standstill.
"How can a mere trading place be able to host so many chambers of commerce?"
This is what most of them think.
They had originally formulated many countermeasures, but they happened to encounter an uprising of space creatures. After thinking about it together, they came up with the idea of using space creatures to destroy the Lanxi trading place.
Later, they actually discovered a wandering Star Eater, so they asked a small empire to lure the Star Eater to Lanxi territory to achieve the purpose of destruction.
"It is said that the last time Daxia and Osman worked together to eliminate the Star Eater, it took almost a month. This time it is Daxia alone. It will take at least two months to finish it." A member with a little hair was curious.
One sound.
Someone immediately laughed: "I think we should take this opportunity to open up the market in this area and extend the trade scope of the Manfu Business Alliance."
Some people also asked: "The key is trade goods, right? The Chamber of Commerce in Lanxi trading area has too many good things. Even the empire of the third sector has settled in, and there is also the sale of Daxia arms. Although the performance is not the strongest,
But the price is not expensive.”
The person in charge nodded, "You are right, the lack of competitiveness is indeed our shortcoming. I think we can sell our respective cutting-edge technological applications to enhance the competitiveness of Manford Group."
"But wouldn't this be too radical? What if someone with malicious intentions takes the opportunity to attack us?"
"I didn't say that all cutting-edge applications will be sold, but we can't just have one technology that is strong, right?"
The person in charge glanced at the person who asked the question and responded to his question calmly.
There are many trade empires in the Mannford Business Group, and their strengths vary. Even the allies have their own competitions.
There is an old saying: Money never sleeps.
If you are not strong enough and still want to develop along with others, it is impossible in the business world where interests are paramount.
In fact, almost every one of the seventeen allies is thinking about how to annex the interests of the other party.
"How about arranging for more low-level citizens to enter entertainment venues?"
"You can try lowering the conditions for the Chamber of Commerce to settle in."
"Increase the security of transportation routes. There have been a lot of pirates recently."
They continued to discuss and formulated multiple strategies around several trading locations of the Mannford Business Alliance.
Including but not limited to reducing handling fees, lowering prices of similar products, increasing entertainment items, etc.
There is only one purpose, and that is to suppress the development of other trading places. As long as a certain amount of monopoly is formed, Manfu Group will become one of the top business alliances.
I have to say that their strategy is quite effective.
Under the terrifying power of the Star Eater, the Lanxi trading place has indeed been greatly affected.
And because of its attack, it affected at least five trade routes, causing many chambers of commerce's ships to reroute or suspend trade.
"The situation has been identified. It was an unknown small force that led the Star Eater here. It looks like it accidentally provoked the Star Eater and then ran to the Lanxi trading place in a panic."
After investigating the cause of the accident, the answer was quickly obtained, and Cortana immediately reported it to Chu Hua.
But obviously, this matter is not that simple.
Cortana turned to another piece of intelligence data and continued: "However, after investigation by our intelligence department, we found that this power empire has recently received a large amount of resource assistance from the Mannford Business Group."
"As expected, this matter has something to do with them."
"Manfu Commercial Group..." Chu Hua read the name.
He had some impression. After all, it was near the Lanxi trading place and it could be considered a competitor, but he didn't expect that the other party would resort to such tactics.
"The Star Eaters in the Lanxi trading area must be eliminated as soon as possible to ensure the stability of the entire area!"
After a while, Chu Hua gave instructions to let Zhang Hai and other fleet commanders understand the importance of this matter.
At the same time, he also discussed with Cortana how to fight back against the Mannford Group and let them know clearly who was behind Lanxi.
Cortana swiped the tablet on her hand and told the basic situation of the Mannford Chamber of Commerce.
"Manfu Chamber of Commerce is formed from seventeen power empires, including four military empires, one to be transformed into a harmonious empire, and the rest are all trade empires."
"They have a total of four trading locations, located in the four directions of the group, with a radiation range of about 19 jumping points."
"The famous product is kinetic energy weapons. In terms of resources, it has the price advantage of alien natural gas, which is about 17% lower than the lowest price in Lanxi trading area."
"According to intelligence, their alien natural gas is collected by several nearby vassal empires. Now it seems that the output of alien natural gas in that area is good."
The brief report gave Chu Hua a basic understanding of the manful Manfu Group.
After nodding and looking at the star map, Chu Hua thought for a while and asked, "How is their military strength?"
Cortana then turned to the military situation of various empires in the Mannford Business Alliance, "Overall, it is worse than Daxia, but they are still well funded. It is said that they have several top fleets, stationed in various trading places."
"When was the last time they had a war?" Chu Hua asked again.
"In September last year, they formed a business alliance later, until now."
The Manfu Business Alliance is not a small force. With sufficient money, its strength cannot be underestimated.
However, they also have their own limitations.
To put it simply, in order to make money, stability is the first factor. They will not start a war with others unless they have to.
Thinking of this, Chu Hua ordered: "Increase the support of the Saint Ni vassal state, and speed up the outward expansion after the space biological riots stabilize."
"Also, cultivate a few white-glove empires that have nothing to do with us on the surface, and then let them attack the sources of alien natural gas of the Manford Group."
"By the way, call Mr. Mankiw up. I want to see his opinion on recent economic matters."
Cortana recorded Chu Hua's instructions in detail and then exited the command room.
After a while, Daxia's chief economist, Mr. Mankiw, came to the command room.
