Chapter 266 The Current Situation of the Chamber of Commerce

When talking about Kanding Xunxing, Jiulisu's expression showed a trace of anger. Obviously, Kanding Xunxing's suppression of the Chamber of Commerce of All Nations on outlying islands is more serious than ordinary people imagined.

Generally speaking, when this kind of thing happens, the public can report it to the other two major organizations, but because the Wan Guo Chamber of Commerce is a chamber of commerce composed of foreign businessmen, they don't want to meddle in their own business.

It is obviously not a wise choice to offend Kan Dingxing for a group of outsiders.

"Taxes that are several times higher than ordinary rice wives, and unreasonable rules and regulations, these are not the worst things." Jiu Lixu spoke out all the evil deeds that Kan Ding pursued, as if confiding, "The worst thing is that during this period of time, the new tax order has just been issued, and the form of tax that needs to be paid has changed from Mora to a commodity called [Crystalized Bone Marrow]."

"Before the decree was promulgated, most of the merchants in the chamber of commerce had never heard of this kind of goods. Until an old merchant from Liyue recognized that this was the material he had transported to Winter's Land when he was young."

"Although they were very reluctant, everyone still searched for [Crystalized Bone Marrow] everywhere, and then handed it in as taxes. But it was later discovered that it was nothing more than drinking poison to quench thirst. With the increasing demand for paying taxes , the price of the external [Crystalized Bone Marrow] is also rising.”

"Until later, there was only one merchant who had stock, and no other places could buy it. So, that merchant kept raising the price, but due to the pressure of the law, we had to buy it again."

"The result of repeated vicious circles is that the tax has exceeded our profit. If this continues, we may not even be able to eat enough."

"Actually, we have also tried to communicate with Kanding, but in this land full of thunder, who can hear the voices of us businessmen in desperate situations? Oh, Fontaine, Fontaine! , my hometown, I miss you so much"

The resentment and helplessness towards Kanding's pursuit are revealed everywhere in the words, which is simply interpreting the three words bullying to the extreme.

But that's something that can't be helped, so Jiulixu and the others can only choose to give in again and again.

"There is such a thing, it's too bullying." After hearing Jiu Lisu's story, Paimeng immediately defended the merchants of the Chamber of Commerce, "Ying, what do you think?"

"I think there must be something wrong with that businessman." Ying began to make her own analysis based on Jiu Lisu's narration. The general meaning is that it is very likely that the businessman with crystallized bone marrow has caused the current situation.

If there is no accident, the businessman should also be a foreign businessman, but Jiu Lixu and the others are in such a difficult situation, why does he have inventory on hand?So there must be something wrong with this.

Maybe that businessman is doing some shady deal with Kanding Xingxing.

"President Gyurisu, do you know that businessman?"

After deciding to find a breakthrough from the businessman, Ying began to ask Jiulixu for information.

"I know. In fact, he used to have contacts with our Chamber of Commerce of All Nations, but for some reason, he chose to cut off contact with us. We don't know where his supply comes from."

Jiulisu's answer strengthened Ying's guess that there must be something wrong with that businessman.

"So, do you know where he is now? Maybe we can get some useful information from him."

Now that there are clues, the next step is to find the businessman.If he does have a problem, he will definitely be caught.

Hearing this, Jiu Lixu suddenly realized: "Yes, this is really a good idea. As people other than businessmen and new foreigners on the island, he should relax his vigilance."

"Let me think about it. I remember that if we want to find him, we should look under the tree by the sea in the residential area. That's where we usually meet him."

"Understood, then leave it to us!"

Just do what you say, Ying and Paimeng are ready to set off with high spirits, but Lin Yan just stands there motionless.

"Eh? Lin Yan, why don't you leave?" Paimon asked, looking at Lin Yan suspiciously.

But Lin Yan's answer made her feel a little surprised: "This kind of thing should be handled by you. As for me. I plan to go to the island to get familiar with the environment here."

"What! We are all thinking about how to solve the plight of the Chamber of Commerce, but you actually want to go to the island." Paimon said with a dissatisfied face, "Uh, Lin Yan, why do you want to go to the island?" It will become so unreliable when encountering such troubles!"

Indeed, Lin Yan didn't like troublesome things. Although he helped many people solve troubles in Liyue, it was all because he had to go.But now, with my mother and the others around, I naturally don't have to do it myself.

One is that he doesn't have much interest in it, and the other is because he really wants to visit the island, at least to understand the topographical structure here.

"Forget it, since you don't want to go, then don't go." Seeing that Lin Yan didn't intend to change his mind, Paimeng could only agree, "If that's the case, then Yula and Xiaobai will stay in the Wan Guo Chamber of Commerce Well, I always feel that if there are too many people, it will arouse the suspicion of the businessman."

"And, I believe Ying, she can definitely solve this matter with me."

After hearing this, Yula hesitated for a while before choosing to agree.

She actually wanted to go, but considering that Xiaobai might cause trouble, it was better to stay in the chamber of commerce. Although Kanding Xingxing often suppressed Jiu Lisu and the others, she would not come to the chamber of commerce to make trouble.So if the two of them stay here, their safety can be guaranteed.

As for Lin Yan, before Paimon gave him permission, he had already turned his head and left the place.

Walking on the streets of the outlying island, Lin Yan found that there were many patrolling soldiers around, and these should be the people assigned to carry out the investigation.

For some reason, when they saw Lin Yan, a foreigner, walking on the street, they all cast malicious glances at him.

Although foreigners are not welcome in Inazuma, they shouldn't be excluded to such an extent, right?Is it not enough to just walk on the street?
So, Lin Yan immediately went to a nearby clothing store to buy a suit in the style of Inazuma.

Inazuma's hair is mostly black, and his appearance is undoubtedly the same as Liyueren's, so after Lin Yan puts on inazuma's style of clothes, others can't tell that he is a foreigner at all.

In this way, he will avoid the trouble of Kanding Executive Committee coming to him, and he can do what he wants to do with peace of mind.

The outlying islands are not big, and this is just a part of Inazuma [Narukami Island]. For the sake of convenience, people often divide the outlying islands and Narugami Island into blocks.

After passing through a luxurious mansion, Lin Yan finally came to a statue of the Seven Heavens.

The seven-day god statue of Inazuma here is also a statue made in the image of the god of thunder.

The lower half of the statue is no different from Mond and Liyue's seven-day god statue, but the upper half of the statue has changed from a male to a female.
