Although Donald is the chief court mage of the Kingdom of Lordaeron and has a very high status, he has already seen the strength of Lin Li and the Tower of Twilight in the Sky City, so he naturally keeps his posture quite low. What's more, he has already seen the strength of Lin Li and the Tower of Dusk.
, Lin Li slapped Jindu Kingdom twice, but Jindu Kingdom had no temper at all, which made Donald feel that Lin Li was even more inscrutable.
Therefore, Donald became even more determined to have a good relationship with Lin Li, and even went so far as to flatter Lin Li face to face. If he could have a good relationship with Lin Li, in his opinion, he would probably get what he got from coming to Jindu Kingdom.
The biggest harvest was achieved.
Lin Li naturally heard Donald's compliment, but there was nothing special on his face. He was still smiling and said: "Master Donald was joking, but we all have some friendship, as long as you are a friend.
, I won’t let people stand here, please sit down.”
Lin Li didn't have any special meaning when he said this, but when Donald and Tory heard it, they couldn't help but feel a little happy in their hearts. However, they also knew very well that everyone can say polite words.
Whether you can truly gain Lin Li's friendship depends on how you do it. After all, this friendship is deep or shallow, and it also needs to be managed. Lin Li's attitude can only be said to be non-rejecting, or not caring.
That little contradiction before.
After letting the two of them take their seats, Lin Li also walked to the main seat and sat down. Then he said to the two of them: "I went out for a walk today. The sea market in Jindu Kingdom is really good. It's really eye-opening.
.Why did you two think of coming to my place if you didn't go and have a good tour?"
Of course, Lin Li knew that Donald and Prince Tory came here for the purpose of connecting with each other. However, unless they are true friends, the relationship must be connected, not just sitting together drinking tea and chatting.
That's it. After all, the relationship hasn't reached that level yet.
If it were people from Riding and France, or people from the two major temples of light and darkness, there would at least be some cooperation and business dealings between them, and we could talk about deepening cooperation. But what about Lordaeron?
That is to say, they had contact while exploring the Sky City, but there was no business or diplomatic contact afterwards. How did this relationship begin?
After hearing Lin Li's words, Prince Tory smiled and said: "President Ferre, you have visited the market today and you must know that although the market is good, there are almost no real good things. You can buy it."
The Poseidon Pillar is just an exception, not all shops can have something of the level of the Poseidon Pillar."
Prince Tory's words really touched Lin Li's heart. The Gift of the Sea was already the largest market. He couldn't find anything that really tempted him there, and I'm afraid there was very little hope in other markets. Actually, think about it.
That's right, it's a really good thing. Who doesn't want to sell it for a big price? Naturally, they have to put it up for auction to get greater profits.
Lin Li didn't shy away from anything. He nodded calmly and said, "Yes, although the market is lively, there is nothing really rare. It seems that we have to wait for the auction after the market officially opens."
After the sea market is officially opened, there will be a series of auctions, not only held by the Jindu Kingdom, but also by other big businessmen, or several sea clan forces. At that time, it will really be the time for all kinds of rare treasures to be unveiled. I'm afraid
Take out anything at random, and it may not be lower than the Poseidon Pillar.
Seeing that Lin Li agreed with his words, Prince Tory showed a little joy on his face, and then said: "The auction is indeed a good place to display rare treasures, but in addition to the auction, there is actually another
Place. It’s also easy to see some rare treasures.”
As soon as he heard what Prince Tory said, Lin Li became interested. He raised his eyebrows slightly and said with a smile: "Then what place did Prince Tory say?"
"I wonder if President Ferre has ever heard of the profession of Secret Trader?" Prince Tory saw that Lin Li's interest had been aroused, and he couldn't help but have a look of satisfaction on his face, and his tone was much lighter than before.
When he started talking to Lin Li, Prince Tory was really a little uneasy. He was mainly frightened by what Lin Li was doing in the Kingdom of Jindu, and he was afraid that he would mess up the matter if he said the wrong thing. However, after a few words, they chatted.
, he found that as long as he corrected his attitude, this young Saint Realm powerhouse did not seem to be as difficult to contact as he imagined.
Lin Li is indeed like this. If others give him face, he will give others face. If others provoke him without good reason, then don't blame him for slapping the other person in the face. Jindu Kingdom is such an example. Therefore, although
Hearing that Prince Tory was a little pushy, Lin Li was not impatient and asked in a dignified manner: "Secret merchant? Is it any different from ordinary merchants?"
Although Prince Tory gave up, he also knew that nothing should be done too much, so he said: "To put it bluntly, these secret merchants are actually businessmen who do shady business. Usually their identities may be ordinary businessmen, or
They are engaged in some other very common professions. But their abilities are far beyond those of ordinary businessmen."
When Lin Li heard this explanation, he suddenly realized. At the same time, he roughly guessed what place Prince Tory was talking about. Isn't this so-called secret trader just a black market merchant? If there are treasures, they cannot be openly auctioned.
If they were to be sold, they would naturally be shady treasures, so they would have to be sold on the black market.
To say that his network is not broad enough, in fact, he should have thought of the black market a long time ago! Although Lin Li has no interest in the general black market, Jindu Kingdom is currently undergoing a sea market, and all the so-called secret traders from all over the world do not want to thrive here.
If you can make a fortune, the quality is definitely not comparable to the ordinary black market.
"I think I may know the place you are talking about, but if there is no access to that kind of place, I'm afraid not just anyone can enter." At this time, Lin Li actually also knew that Donald and Tory were coming.
Visit for your own purpose.
Just like Lin Li said, since those secret traders are doing shady business, they naturally can't do it with as much fanfare as holding an auction, and they can't just let strangers into their circle. Even if they have some background, they can
If it is really exposed, their backers may not protect them. Therefore, secret traders are also very picky about their customers. They must either know the truth or have regular customers as guarantees.
Prince Tory and Donald were not surprised by Lin Li's words. He had already said this, and if he couldn't guess it, his IQ would really be questionable.
"As expected of President Ferre, your guess is indeed accurate." Although this matter is not difficult to guess at all, Prince Tory still gave a thumbs up, with a sincere compliment on his face, and continued: "That's right.
, the place I am talking about is the Secret Merchant Market, and it is hosted by the Secret Merchant Alliance."
"Secret merchants still have an alliance?" Lin Li was stunned for a moment. The black market merchants in this place were quite big, and they actually dared to form an alliance. According to what he thought, those black market merchants were all afraid of having their identities exposed.
Even people with peers often have to be extremely wary. If they form an alliance, they won't be afraid of being lumped together.
However, with the introduction of Prince Tory, Lin Li also understood why those secret traders were so confident. Although the Secret Traders Alliance is a very loose organization. It is led by the ten largest secret traders in the Anriel world. Even if
These top ten secret traders may not know each other's identities. But you must know that in addition to these top ten secret traders, the Secret Traders Alliance includes almost all the powerful secret traders in the world of Anriel. If it really
It is not difficult to overthrow a kingdom by going crazy.
Of course, the purpose of businessmen is to seek wealth, and secret traders are also businessmen. As long as they are not forced to the point of desperation, they will not really fight to the death. Anyway, they have accumulated huge wealth in their hands, and the worst they can do is to quit.
. To say that they can overthrow a kingdom only means that the wealth they control is truly astonishing.
The really important point is that no one knows the true identity of these secret merchants. Maybe there is a bishop of the Temple of Light among them, maybe there is a prince of a certain kingdom, or there may be some more exaggerated identity. Therefore, which one
No force can guarantee that there are no members of the Secret Merchant Alliance within their ranks. Even if they want to take action against the Secret Merchant Alliance, they often end up in vain.
Therefore, as long as the Secret Traders Alliance does not go too far, there is basically no force that insists on embarrassing them. The existence of the Secret Traders Alliance makes the transactions of the Secret Traders safer, and therefore attracts more and more Secret Traders to join.
Of course, it is not that simple to join the Secret Trader Alliance. Not just any sneaky person can get in. Even the lowest secret trader in the alliance must have at least ten years of experience in this industry.
OK.
"It is said that the Secret Traders Alliance already existed in the Dark Ages. There are even rumors that in the war at the end of the Dark Ages, the resistance forces received secret support from the Secret Traders Alliance, which finally overthrew the high elves.
The rule of
.
Prince Tory briefly introduced the Secret Merchant Alliance, and finally told such a legend, which may be regarded as a joke. As for the Secret Merchant Alliance, he could only know so much about the Secret Merchant Alliance, and even if it was the Secret Merchant Alliance
The secret traders in the alliance may not be able to tell much information about this alliance.
Lin Li didn't have much interest in exploring the Secret Traders Alliance. Anyway, he just wanted to buy some useful things. According to Prince Tory's introduction, since the Secret Traders Alliance was so large in scale, the Secret Traders Market they hosted
, there should be more good things.
"Let's not talk about legends or anything like that. You two came here this time just to tell me stories, right?" Lin Li looked at Donald and Prince Tory with a smile on his face and said half-jokingly.
Although the purpose of the two people's coming was already obvious, Lin Li still had to wait for the two of them to say it themselves. Moreover, Lin Li also thought about it now. In fact, even if Donald and Tory didn't come today, if the news that he had finished his research was spread tomorrow,
There will be people who will do the same thing as them. After all, in the Kingdom of Jindu, Donald and Tory are not the only ones who have connections, the two countries of Ladingflan, the two major temples of light and darkness, and even the Illuminati, I am afraid that the secret
The business market is also very clear.
Seeing that Lin Li did not take the initiative to speak, Prince Tory was a little disappointed, but he still kept a smile on his face and said: "Yes, President Ferre, Master Donald and I are here to visit you this time, hoping to invite you to go with us.
Secret Merchant Market, I wonder if the two of us have the honor to be your guide."
Prince Tory's attitude is quite upright, and there is almost no trace of the inherent arrogance of Lordaeron nobles. You know, in the hearts of Lordaeron people, they always believe that their ancestors saved Anriel.
Human beings on the mainland have always viewed people from other kingdoms with a savior mentality. Just like Prince Campbell back then, even though he knew that his strength was no match for the Twilight Tower team, and knew that Lin Li was a strong man in the holy realm, he still treated him as a savior.
My nostrils are soaring to the sky.
As for Prince Tory's attitude, Lin Li was indeed quite satisfied. It didn't mean that he had to be complimented. After all, anyone who was always being looked at by others would definitely not be happy. Therefore, Lin Li didn't say anything else.
He said politely, nodded and said: "Okay, I am a little moved by what you two said, but I just don't know when the secret merchant market will start?"
Although he did not let the other party take the initiative to ask for the two of them to take him to the secret merchant market, the other party was able to agree to go with him. This can be regarded as achieving the goal of the two of them! Prince Tory put aside that trace of regret and did not hesitate.
Hiding the joy on his face, he said: "If President Ferre has nothing to be busy with, then we might as well go now. The Secret Merchant Market started five days ago, and it will be held every night after that, but in a different location. Today
It’s late, I should be on the Mermaid, and there is still some time before the Mermaid.”
The Mermaid is a very famous large-scale cruise ship in the Jindu Kingdom. Just by the name, you can tell what kind of business it usually does. And the real owner of the cruise ship is said to be the Siren Clan, known as the Mermaid. This Siren Clan
One characteristic is that women are delicate and beautiful, even as good as the high elves who are famous for their perfection, while men are all extremely ugly. (To be continued...)
