Chapter 174 Someone came to the door
As the saying goes, money is not everything, and no money is everything.
But money is indeed not everything.
For the city of Korhal located in the north, it is not easy to eat orange fruits. Although they also grow orange fruits themselves, as "Oranges grow in Huainan, they become oranges, and when they grow in North Huaibei, they become oranges."
Just like Citrus aurantium, the orange fruits cultivated in the north are not as good as the orange fruits grown in the south in terms of taste and shape. But even in the south, there is only one season a year.
Therefore, even these high-ranking officials had to wait eagerly every summer for caravans to bring fresh fruits such as oranges from the south before they could enjoy a delicious meal.
And now, in the middle of winter, there are actually fresh, just-picked orange fruits?
Not only that, the taste of these orange fruits is far better than ordinary orange fruits. Even those that the nobles and nobles spent a lot of money to transport from the south do not taste so good!
In the cold winter, taking a bite of the sweet, sour, refreshing and pleasant orange fruit is simply the supreme enjoyment. No amount of money can buy this, because orange fruit only grows one season a year, which is as close as a person's pregnancy.
Just like being able to give birth to a child only after a month, it is a natural law that cannot be changed no matter how much money you have.
And now, this natural law seems to have been changed?
No one had it before, so these nobles could still be calm, but now that they have it, they naturally won't let it go!
Not to mention, because the number of orange fruits is limited, there are more people who haven't grabbed it than those who have. Watching the lady next door drinking afternoon tea and tasting the crispy and delicious orange fruits, I only
Being able to drool over the fence...
Oops, I’m so angry! I’m so angry that I can’t help myself! Is there anyone who shows off their wealth like this?
We must find the origin of these orange fruits!!
Since these orange fruits were leaked from the Alchemist Guild, everyone naturally found the Alchemist Association first. As a result, the answer given by the alchemist was that these orange fruits were the product of some kind of alchemy tools, so they were found in the Alchemist Association.
For consignment, the quantity of these orange fruits is limited, and these are the only ones left. They will no longer be available in a short period of time.
This answer naturally gave those interested inquirers a blow. Since the Alchemist Association made it clear that it was out of stock, there was nothing they could do. In these people's thoughts, perhaps some alchemists had developed a brand new, cold-resistant
The variety of orange fruit trees may be that they accidentally obtained such orange fruits during some invention experiment, but now that the orange fruits are out of stock, they have no choice but to leave.
But there are others who are keenly aware of the business opportunities.
"So, you're here to seek cooperation?"
Fang Zheng put down the tea cup in his hand and looked at the man in front of him with a smile. Sitting in front of him was a middle-aged man whose whole body had turned into a ball. At this moment, he was wiping the sweat on his forehead.
Looking at Fang Zheng with a somewhat awkward smile.
"Yes, Mr. Ezio, our Northland Chamber of Commerce is very interested in the greenhouse and slime fertilizer you invented. If possible, we hope to cooperate with the workshop to obtain your exclusive authorization."
"I understand that...but, Mr. Fleiss, I am not very satisfied with your conditions."
Hearing this, Fang Zheng couldn't help but take a high look at the man named Freis in front of him. It has only been two days since they started selling orange fruits. This is not the first person to find the alchemy workshop and want to work with him.
They were talking about business. But unlike the others before him, the one in front of him wanted more.
He hopes to reach a comprehensive agreement with Nunnally's Alchemy Workshop, and his Northland Chamber of Commerce will exclusively manufacture and sell "greenhouses" and "slime fertilizer".
For Founder, this is of course a good thing. However, there are still many differences between him and Founder. The biggest problem is that Freis hopes to spend a large sum of money to "buy out" these two inventions.
, but Founder required both parties to sign a "sharing" contract.
But Fleiss obviously doesn't want to do this.
"Mr. Ezio, I can understand your thinking. Although greenhouses and slime fertilizers both have broad prospects, it is precisely because they have such bright prospects that these technologies will encounter certain difficulties in the promotion process.
Degree of hindrance...you know what I mean."
After the previous brief chat, Fleiss had discovered that the young man sitting in front of him was not the kind of nerd who only knew how to invent and create as he thought. On the contrary, he seemed to be far smarter than himself.
Some. Therefore, he gave up his previous ideas and began to fight for his own interests.
"If Mr. Ezio is willing to set up a chamber of commerce and promote it independently, then the Northland Chamber of Commerce is willing to be your partner. But now it seems that you do not have this willingness, so our Northland Chamber of Commerce will have to bear more responsibilities.
Risk, I hope you can consider this issue. We are very sincere, if you are willing to sell these two alchemy technologies to us, we are willing to pay a reasonable price to buy them out."
Not bad, I have some brains.
Looking at the fat-headed Frese in front of him, Fang Zheng also raised his eyebrows. Yes, as Frese said, greenhouses and slime fertilizers are both very useful technologies, and the rare thing is that they are of high quality and low price.
, the materials are easy to find. Slime cannot be killed, and there is no risk or harm in breeding it. It can be said that once these two technologies are born, they will form a high-profile monopoly industry. It is an exaggeration.
Er said that if it can be spread out, then almost no one in the entire Northland, and even the entire main world, will not need these two things.
Not to mention that if Nimfu and Nunnally could break through the limitations of the nutrient solution for soilless cultivation, the benefits would be even higher.
Soilless cultivation......
Apart from anything else, Fang Zheng knew that the Kingdom of the Holy Religion would never let go of this technology. As mentioned before, the Kingdom of the Holy Religion needed to guard the dusk border, so they had "enclaves" like Order Fortresses all over the world.
, in this case, most material supplies need to rely on the coordination of the Holy Religion Kingdom's temples in various countries. Food has always been the top priority, because the dusk border is contaminated by the magic of chaos and the climate is very harsh.
Not suitable for growing crops at all.
But if the soilless cultivation technology is successfully developed, combined with the greenhouse, the Fortress of Order will have the ability to produce food independently. Even if it cannot completely solve the problem, even if it can solve half of it, it will be enough for the archbishops of the temple to burn incense in celebration.
Already.
And if the food problem can be completely solved, then maybe we can use various Order fortresses as a breakthrough to weaken the power of the Twilight Border and regain the territory that originally belonged to Order. To put it bluntly, this technology may even affect the changes in the entire Order world.
!
Under such circumstances, who can not be tempted by such a technology? This is not only an economic benefit. If it works well, the political benefits are also indispensable.
If such a thing does not have a protective umbrella, it will be devoured by wild wolves from all directions. In other words, if Founder cannot protect his own interests and faces a group attack, the temple will probably be destroyed.
It can only be divided evenly with the mud.
After all, strength in numbers is useful.
Although the Alchemist Association is a stakeholder, its problem is that the association is an "official institution", and once it rises to the level of "national strategy", the official institution naturally needs unconditional cooperation.
Of course, Founder can fall out, but just for this... to fall out with the Kingdom of the Holy Religion? Then let Malthael come out?
Fang Zheng felt crazy just thinking about it.
Now Founder has two options, either to follow the lead in urban novels, start a company of his own, and then turn it into a group industry. When the business grows, he will naturally be able to protect his patented technology.
Either learn from reality and resell the patent to a powerful multinational company. Then whoever has the ability will go to the trouble of the multinational company. All you need to do is conduct experiments with peace of mind and get a commission.
The former looks promising, but Fang Zheng is unwilling to do it. On the contrary, what he hopes is to make money easily and comfortably by selling patents and collaborating.
It's better to lie at home and count money, why bother working hard on business matters, maybe you will be assassinated, spied on, tracked... it's all trouble.
Now Fangzheng doesn't like trouble.
He has also learned about the background of the Northland Chamber of Commerce. It is not as good as those well-known multinational groups on the earth, but it can still be regarded as the second level. At least the word "Northland" is not written in vain, and their businesses are available throughout the Northland.
Network. From the side, it also shows that the power of this chamber of commerce is very strong, and because the Northland Chamber of Commerce is located in the alpine region of the north, the requirements for greenhouses and slime fertilizers are obviously more urgent.
But that's okay. If it's a big player like Microsoft that occupies a monopoly in the industry, then it will be much more difficult for Founder to fight for benefits. After all, they are a monopoly, and you can't escape his grasp whether you want to sell or not.
As the second level, the Northland Chamber of Commerce naturally has ambitions to go further. At the same time, it also has the ability to arm-wrestle with other huge forces, so that it will not let itself take action and turn everything into the plot of an urban novel.
So Fang Zheng stated his request directly.
"We want 40% of the profit share, and you divide the rest among yourself."
"This is impossible!!"
Upon hearing this, Fleiss's chubby body suddenly bounced up from the chair like a bouncy ball.
Although he had expected that the other party would be very open-mouthed, Fleiss did not expect that this young man had such a big appetite.
Chapter completed!
