The person coming was not George Foley, but just one of his family deacons.
This is also normal.
For such a small matter, it is true that the head of the Yusan family does not need to come in person. Sending a deacon can be regarded as the attitude of the Fulai family on the surface.
You must know that in the more than one hundred years of history since the establishment of Yuanxing City, the citizens of Yuanxing City have actually met the head of the Yusan family no more than five times in total.
And even though these five were very important occasions in the history of Yuanxing City, the heads of the Yusan Family did not appear in public.
Instead, he attended this important moment in the history of Five Dimensions Xingcheng as a guest.
Public appearance? Don't be ridiculous, if this was really going to be done, I'm afraid that the first generation city lord who established Yuanxing City would not have created such an alternative governance system from the beginning.
Strictly speaking, Yuanxing City can be regarded as a unique city-state that exists in the form of co-governance, rather than a dictatorship like other city-states.
This may be the reason why this city can still separate trade and military operations without interfering with each other even if it is located on the front line of the battlefield, and it can even attract more people.
Yuanxing City's trade freedom and security level are second to none even in this war-torn period in the North District.
And it is basically rare to see official people come forward to make things difficult for businessmen.
This may be the reason why many merchants come here to trade even though they have to travel across mountains and rivers.
Of course, this does not mean that the official will not care about those who deliberately provoke people.
The deacon sent by the Foley family this time was actually just to show this attitude.
Jix Wall.
Of course, he was not using the identity of the deacon of the Foley family.
On the surface, Hua Er is an officer of the Yuanxing City Business and Trade Committee.
His duty happened to be to manage the largest free trade market in Yuanxing City, and he appeared here at this time.
It makes sense and no one can find anything wrong with it.
This is exactly the attitude of the Foley family.
No matter who you are, if you want to survive in Yuanxing City, you must abide by the rules I set.
did you see it? Even myself, I always follow the rules.
"Mr. Wall, prices in the free market have fluctuated greatly in recent days. Does the committee have any response measures?"
"Commissioner Wall, how long will this situation last? I heard that the war has become more and more intense recently. Now is the time to sell rice at a good price, but the price of rice in Yuanxing City makes people afraid to buy it. , when will the authorities take action to control prices?”
Wall was originally polite, waving to everyone with a smile.
But when he heard this sentence, there was no change on his face. He still had a commercial look on his face. But after he got close to the speaker, he quickly got closer to him at lightning speed. He said something that made the other party stunned.
"No one is forcing you to buy it. You don't even have to do this business, but if I see you again, I can't guarantee that I will stuff you into a grain bag in the next second, pack you up and send you to the front line. I guarantee, I do what I say!”
Hua Er's voice was so low that no one except the two of them could hear it.
What outsiders see is this gentlemanly member with a gentle smile patiently answering people's questions.
It would never have occurred to me that this committee member was actually secretly intimidating.
The attitude is so bad that it makes people shudder.
The businessman who was threatened because of his "bold" words could hardly believe his ears and looked dumbfounded. But to outsiders, he was just shocked by what Commissioner Wall said.
This made the businessmen instinctively want to get closer.
They all wanted to know what Commissioner Wall said to the daring guy, and the scene became very chaotic.
After the businessman was in a daze for a while, he finally thought of something. In addition to shock and disbelief, he originally had a trace of anger on his face.
In his opinion, no one can intimidate merchants with words in this city-state, not even if he is a member of the committee!
This kind of humiliation once made him very angry.
Of course, this anger didn't last long.
Because he soon saw that Commissioner Wall was waving to the crowd and looking at him inadvertently with the corner of his eye.
His eyes were full of threats!
He was not joking, if he was really impulsive, he would really do something terrible!
Out of cherishment of his own life, the businessman immediately put away his dissatisfaction.
It wasn't until this moment that he finally remembered something.
This is the North District!
Although Yuanxing City is indeed a city-state with a strong commercial atmosphere and is very friendly to merchants.
But it is still in the North District.
What is the North District? Historically, if there was unrest in the four major districts, the North District would always be the first.
To some extent, this is already a tradition.
The people in the North District and the folk customs here can be described as tough.
Even in town there won't be anything.
But merchants all have to travel around, who can be sure that they will be safe after leaving the city? No!
Therefore, the businessman who was talking nonsense just now shut his mouth immediately. He was as honest as a quail, and his mouth seemed to be sealed and he no longer dared to say anything.
After the atmosphere at the scene lasted for a while, it gradually calmed down with Hua Er's wave.
Everyone also understood and obediently shut their mouths.
Originally, Commissioner Wall conveyed the spirit of the committee at this meeting, so let’s listen to what the committee has to say!
At this point in time, the committee can only take a stand. From a business point of view, this can be regarded as a very inefficient behavior.
But similarly, businessmen are also a very pragmatic group. No matter how long you delay, as long as you are not perfunctory, you will be fine.
You must let people see that your committee is doing practical things!
Therefore, the appearance of Commissioner Wall, although he has not said anything yet, has given the businessmen a reassurance.
What does this mean?
At this time point, it may only be related to price fluctuations in the free trade market.
And this is what businessmen are most concerned about.
As for those who caused the current situation, the people of the Venetian Merchant Alliance, after seeing the current situation, the committee made a suitable statement.
The already terrible mood was even worse when the house leaked and it rained all night. It couldn't be worse.
Even if Commissioner Wall hasn't said anything yet, these alliance backbones have almost guessed what the other party will say at this time.
What else could there be?
It's already this time, if it were him, he would naturally use his full strength to give them the most fatal blow, so that they can never stand up is the best choice.
Although they were not following the crowd and could not clearly see the triumphant face of the committee member named Wall, they could only rely on imagination to imagine what he would say later and the attitude he wanted to express.
\"Recently, there have been some behaviors and individuals trying to ruin the market environment. After the committee's investigation, we immediately responded accordingly. Although we still don't know who is responsible, it is not a big deal. "
"The purpose of our committee is always to safeguard your interests, so we took action as soon as possible to artificially intervene in this malicious behavior of driving up prices."
"As you can see, today's free market trade prices have gradually stabilized. I believe that this situation and its subsequent impacts will gradually disappear in a short time."
"Eventually, the market will return to its original state, and the interests of everyone will naturally be safeguarded. This is exactly what the committee has been doing."
Wall's voice was not very loud, but he was able to ensure that every word he said could be heard by the people present.
The people in the audience stared with bated breath, waiting for what would happen next. You could tell just by looking at their expressions.
Obviously, what the Wall member said cannot completely dispel their doubts about the prospects of the free trade market.
Wall, on the other hand, had obviously expected it. After speaking in a long and eloquent manner, he changed the topic and finally said the words that everyone present wanted to hear most.
"You all know that the foundation of Yuanxing City is commerce. As long as Yuanxing City remains, commerce will never end, and all the problems you are worried about will be solved!"
oh!
After saying these words, someone immediately burst into cheers. Slowly, the doubts on people's faces gradually disappeared, as if they were infected. The haze in their eyes was swept away, replaced by excitement and enthusiasm. fanaticism.
As a businessman, I naturally understand what these words mean to today’s free trade market.
That’s a big boost!
