Xuanwu Dan, which has been circulated in the East Samlian continent for hundreds of years, is a quite unfamiliar term to Ling, a member of the Spiritual Erebonian Empire. Even the Republic of Kalvard, which has accepted a large number of Easterners in the past hundred years,
It is not considered an official holiday.
When she passed by the East Block and saw that the Orientals living there were busy holding folk activities, Ling still felt a little confused. After understanding how to play, Ling went to play a few games, and then returned to her home.
territory.
She went to the Urnu Sales Department in the IBC Building. Like Leinfort, Urnu also set up a branch in Crossbell. The location was also in the IBC Building, but not on the same floor.
Not as a special adviser to Leinfort, but as a director of IBC. If he went to Urnu's territory as Leinfort, it would be a trouble.
After taking out her name tag, she soon met the owner, Kutonoha, who was also the director of Urnu Club, Miss Gui.
In addition to the black-haired oriental-looking Miss Gui, there was a much younger girl beside her. Although she was dressed in a mature manner, her face still looked a bit childish.
"Miss Gui, who is this?"
"This is the first time I've met Miss Ling. She is Retrosa, the only daughter of Farabio, another member of the board of directors of our Urnu Society. Although she is young, she has already obtained a degree in business administration."
"Hello, Sister Ling, I heard about you from Sister Gui. My name is Retrosa Farabio, just call me Retrosa. Starting today, I will serve as a trainee manager at the Crossbell branch.
"
The blond-brown haired girl stretched out her hand to Ling, and Ling responded politely and shook her hand.
Reterosa was born in February 1187 and is now sixteen years old. In fact, she is four years older than Ling's real age.
She didn't look down on Ling just because she looked young. This call of "sister" made Ling feel quite comfortable.
"Then I will call you by your first name. We are not much different in age, so you can just call me Ling."
Reciprocity is a courtesy, and Ling doesn't mind showing some goodwill to the other party.
"IBC and Urnu have always been partners, but that is President Dita's part. What we want to talk about today is limited to commercial fighting games. Does Reterosa also know about it?"
Ling turned her attention to Kurano Hagui, who also nodded.
"Although he is a trainee manager in name, in reality, if nothing else happens, Retrosha will become the director of our Urnu Society's business fighting competition. This is the decision of the board of directors."
"That's not all. In the Crossbell Autonomous Prefecture Assembly, Congressman Campbell, the leader of the Republican Party, also had a hand in it, right?"
"You are joking, we have never heard of such a thing." Miss Gui pretended not to understand what Ling was talking about.
Anyway, you don’t need to think about it to know that the other party will definitely not admit it. Although Ling has always spent Mira as a political donation to manage the parliamentarians, Ling is actually closer to the imperial faction. Recently, the imperial faction led by Speaker Haltmann was in
It was a bit difficult to deal with the Republic faction. I heard that the Republic secretly provided considerable cooperation. Urnu Society's action is just one of them. In addition, it should be a matter of time for Black Moon Trading Company to settle in Kezhou.
"Anyway, as I just said, the commercial fighting competition will be carried out as a specialized business in the future. This is to ensure the competitiveness of our Urnu Society against other companies in the Republic of Kalvad. Not just us,
The other six major chaebols have also hired dedicated personnel to take charge of this aspect, except for Black Moon and Xilu, who probably don't need it."
Both the Erebonian Empire and the Calvard Republic regard Crossbell as a "vassal state", that is, part of their own country. Unlike Ling, who plans to expand his business to the entire Western Semilia continent, Gui
The lady is only considering domestic business competition.
"Retrosa will be responsible for this aspect, so the rest of the discussion will mainly involve her as a talented person, and I will only be responsible for supplementing it."
After Miss Gui finished speaking, she handed over the words to the blond-brown girl.
"I came here during the Closbell Founding Festival. I went to watch the fighting matches every night in the past few days. My vision is quite accurate. I can win basically every commercial fighting match.
However, the competition will become more and more intense in the future, so I will also consider interviewing new fighters."
Ling doesn't go to the underground arena every night, and there are so many spectators, so she doesn't pay special attention to the auditorium, so she doesn't have much impression of Retrosha.
Corporate disputes don’t happen every day, and real business fighting matches don’t happen every day either. In fact, in the nine games over a week starting from the founding festival, only Black Moon and Western Continent divided the northeastern part of Calvard.
In the fight that took place in a certain city's power territory, the rest was just a small fight. And even that time, both sides did not send their respective cadre-level boxers, so they probably wanted to wait and see.
"The fighter of Urnu, I think it's Raggi of Torakawa Ryu. He defeated the representative fighter of Quincy Company with one move."
"He is the business unit leader of our Urnu headquarters. In fact, he just made a cameo appearance. He cannot always fight as a representative fighter. And to be honest, Uncle Raj is not very strong. He is on the same level as him in our company.
There are many, but the opponent yesterday was just too underestimated. Only trading companies like Black Moon, whose main business is combat, do not need to worry about combat power at all."
Just pick up any office worker and you will be a martial artist... Urnu Club's style of painting seems to be different from that of Leinforte. Ling thought about her impression of working in Luray in the past few years. Various departments of Leinforte have added
Up to now, there are no more than five employees who can fight. This is because Ling took herself and Angelica into consideration. (Angelica once worked in the mining department of the first production in "Kiseges of Cold Steel 1")
As an arms dealer, all you need to do is know how to use weapons. Fighting with bare hands is something that few people in the Empire would probably consider.
"To be honest, I didn't expect you to be so enthusiastic. It's not just the Urnu Society, it's not just the six major chaebols of the Republic. Could this be the intention of the Republic's government... is it because of the Non-War Pact?"
"As you said, the delicate relationship between the Empire and the Republic is the most critical. The military war on the table will not start for the time being, but as an alternative, the trade war between the two sides will soon begin. As for the battlefield, there is no doubt that
It’s the trading city of Crossbell between the two major countries.”
"Trade war...it's such an interesting word. Only you Kalvard people would think about it. Most of us in the empire are unaware of it."
After listening to Ling's words, Leiterosa shook her head.
"Perhaps ordinary citizens will not pay attention to it, but I don't think the imperial government will be so slow. What's more, the representative of the imperial government now is the iron-blooded prime minister. He has always been ahead of the times. What will he do?
Unexpected actions are what we are worried about. Business fighting competitions can not only be used to resolve disputes, but also create a larger coalition of interests. Although you ibc are now the president of the board of directors, in my opinion it is not
It will always be like this. In this regard, our Urnu Society will never be willing to lag behind others."
Crossbell, caught between the two major countries, is about to face an unprecedented crisis, but in Retrosa's view, this is also a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity. The purpose of Urnu Society is to use Kezhou as a springboard to open up the situation.
From this perspective, what she plans to do is similar to Ling. It seems that the two of them do have a lot in common to talk about.
