Cook did not go up to intervene, but stood behind these lone merchants and watched. There were six or seven lone merchants, five of them later, two of whom came first, and they argued with the factory guards at the gate of the factory.

"Whatever you make, what's wrong? Just your little goods, it's okay not to sell them to you. Do you know that our goods orders here have been two months later. There are those sold to you there. If you want to buy them, you can go to the chamber of commerce to buy them," several orc guards stood at the gate of the factory, and there was a human. This human said angrily.

"But, we won't make any profit after we get the price in the chamber of commerce," a lone businessman replied in embarrassment.

"That's your business. There are many people coming to this Liberty City annual celebration. Some people took this opportunity to place a lot of orders. Not only us, but also other places, the same is true for you," said the human in the factory.

"But, but we've all come here, we've come from a very far place," a lone businessman said stammeringly,

"Then I have no choice. Our goods orders have been scheduled for two months. This is just that we can only accept such orders, otherwise there will be more," the human in the factory shrugged helplessly.

The lone merchants looked at each other, then continued to walk forward dejectedly, and Cook also followed these lone merchants. These lone merchants walked through several factories, all of which said that the order was full.

Seeing this situation, Cook sighed in his heart. These lone merchants were the hardest, but they were the least guaranteed. However, the profits of these lone merchants were still considerable. After all, the places where these lone merchants went were looked down upon by the Chamber of Commerce, and there were many opportunities for these lone merchants to find bargains.

Finally, these lone merchants found a small hotel and moved in. Cook followed him in. Cook just wanted to see if these lone merchants had any solutions. And often at this time, some things would pop up.

"Several guests are here to stay in the hotel," Cook just walked in, and a waiter walked up to him and said,

Cook sighed and said, "Hey, this time I was in vain. I originally planned to buy a batch of goods, but I knew there was no way to buy the goods."

"Haha, what am I talking about? This one who follows us is also a lone businessman just like us," a lone businessman said with a smile, and the rest of the lone businessmen looked at Cook one after another.

"Haha, this time it's rare for everyone to meet. Boss, each one has a glass of jin ale," Cook said loudly, and then walked towards the lone merchants,

"Dafang, man, you are so generous. I can't bear to drink golden ale," said a lone businessman with a beard.

"There is fate that we can only see you. Why haven't I seen you several times?" Cook asked first.

"It depends on what you said. There are at least thousands of lone merchants coming and going in Liberty City. It would be nice to be able to meet each other," said another lone merchant.

"No, we just met today. Alas, we will suffer a lot this time," another chubby lone businessman said, and his last sentence was a bit depressed.

Cook also sighed and said, "Who said it's not? Our business is getting harder and harder,"

"That's right," the other lone merchants picked up their glasses and drank, because the golden ale that Cook had treated to was already served,

Then Cook looked at the lone merchants and asked, "Do you have any way? We don't want to return empty-handed this time. It will take a long time to go here and go."

Several lone merchants looked at each other but didn't say anything. After seeing this scene, Cook felt relieved. Obviously, these lone merchants had some ways. One of them said: "There are some ways, but it will definitely cost some," he said.

Hearing the lone merchants say this, the other lone merchants look at each other, and Cook gritted his teeth and said, "It's just that you have a profit, otherwise you'll spend more money if you stay in this city."

"Haha, what this guy said is true. This Liberty City is a paradise for the rich. For us poor, it is better to leave quickly," said the lone merchant with bearded face who had just spoken.

But Cook showed some concern at this time: "It's not impossible to take out some money, but I'm afraid it's some scammers,"

"No, it seems that we have lost some money, but the money will be retrieved. If you believe me, I will contact you," said the bearded lone businessman.

"How much does it cost," Cook asked everyone's most concerned question.

"Haha, let's talk about this after you have news. Different goods, different qualities, and the prices required are different," the bearded merchant smiled mysteriously and left.

After the bearded businessman left, the other lone merchants were sitting here, obviously waiting. Cook asked worriedly: "There is really a way,"

"Of course, otherwise what do you think we are doing in this hotel," replied another lone businessman.

Cook was also curious. Could it be that this lone merchant could obtain goods? As for the way to obtain them, was it to bribe the managers in the factory, or was there any other way? Cook thought for a while and felt that there was no way, so he waited quietly.

More than three hours passed, and the bearded lone businessman returned, and then said, "Go, go up and say,"

A group of unicorn merchants went to the hotel and opened a room directly. Then everyone walked in. The bearded lone merchant said, "This time the goods were some tin tableware. These tin is like silver and will not rust at all. How much do you need?"

“I need two hundred sets,”

"I have five hundred sets,"

"I have two hundred sets, too."

"I want two hundred sets too," everyone spoke one after another, and in the end, Cook also asked for two hundred sets.

"The price of each set is 15% higher than our purchase price," said the bearded lone merchant.

"No problem," said a group of lone merchants.

"Okay, everyone pays the deposit first, and 10% of the payment is required. I will notify everyone of the receipt location separately," the bearded lone merchant began to collect the money.

Cook also paid a considerable amount of money. This set of dishes has more than a dozen pieces, and the tinned tableware produced in Liberty City is very beautiful, so the price is relatively expensive. After collecting the money, the bearded lone merchant said, "The place for the goods is in Muqiao Town, and the time for the goods is tomorrow noon,"

Cook nodded and left. Cook believed that this time the matter would be found out soon. Sure enough, two hours later, Cook received the results of this investigation, which shocked Cook very much.

After Cook finished reading the result, he sighed. Anna took it and laughed: "I didn't expect that Cook would encounter some things when you go out once, but these people are not too smart,"

"Haha, blinded by interests," Cook smiled. It's a very simple thing. These iron tableware have some defective products. These defective products should be recasted, but these defective products are shipped out through some channels, and then these defective products are added to the genuine products for transportation. The excess genuine products are sold to these lone merchants by these responsible for transportation. The price of defective products is very low, and with the premium of genuine products, it can be said that the harvest is still not simple.

The key is not this. The most important thing is that these people's tentacles have been touched into the Free Chamber of Commerce, resulting in some magic items also using this method, using inferior products as good as good. Of course, these guys are still very vigilant. The goods that have been dropped are luxury goods sold to those low-level nobles, magic crystal lanterns, magic crystal candlesticks, etc. These things cannot be seen on the surface, but when used, their energy consumption increases or their service life decreases. These are all defective products. These low-level nobles do not understand these,

Although there is not much money, this big network allows Cook to see the root of the turmoil. If you want to lose these things, first there must be someone who makes equipment, then there must be someone who transports equipment, and finally there are some who sell terminals. To put it bluntly, such a big network almost penetrates the Free Chamber of Commerce.

"Troubleshoot it," Cook finally replied, this is what Cook must do. The Free Chamber of Commerce is the foundation of Cook's foothold. If the reputation of the Free Chamber of Commerce is bad, then it is the bad reputation of Cook.

Of course, Cook didn't know that just his words, thousands of people were sent to the mine. Of course, this was definitely not something Cook was concerned about. Accompanied by Anna, Cook met with all the people from the Free Alliance every day.

Every day, Cook would attend a cocktail party as soon as he opened his eyes, and then until late at night, Anna liked such activities very much. Cook also enjoyed a glorious sight. Whether it was the prince of a certain empire, the grand duke of a certain principality, or even the elders of a certain temple, they all maintained the most respectful attitude towards Cook.

"Haha, I like this cocktail party very much. Look at those women, I want to stand in front of you in clothes," Anna looked at Cook's appearance and said in a teasing voice.

Cook was speechless. Since there were many women at the cocktail party, almost every man had at least one woman, so there were no fewer women around Cook. Those women were almost naked and seducing Cook.

"Really, you really think so," Cook asked, looking at Anna,

Although Anna was worried when she saw Cook's appearance, she still said with a smile: "Of course, it depends on whether you have the ability,"

"It's right and wrong," Cook saw Anna's appearance when she said this, hugged Anna's waist, and then said with a wicked smile.

Anna didn't know that Cook was teasing herself just now, so she snorted. Cook looked at the guests around her and felt helpless. There was no way. These were all of the status or potential within the Free League. These were all special teams to analyze for Cook. Those cocktails needed to attend, those who didn't need to, and even their clothes were arranged for Cook. Of course, Cook also needed to be familiar with the information of some people who were more concerned.

Who said that Cook’s Liberty City does not need to act according to the faces of these people, but since Cook formed the Liberty Alliance, it needs to play a certain role instead of distributing the interests to these guys in vain.

In fact, in general, it is a win-win situation. It is like Cook did not form a Free Alliance and made a fortune in everything alone. Then Cook's influence is far from being so great. Not to mention, the dozens of associations under the Free Chamber of Commerce now require many people, not to mention the entire plane alliance, there are millions of merchants selling goods from the Free Chamber of Commerce, and there are thousands of branches alone. This is only in some relatively large cities that have branches.

These merchants sell things from the Free Chamber of Commerce because they can bring profits. If the merchants make profits, then Cook will also make profits. This means that millions of merchants are making money for Coul, and with this interest as the center, they form a huge interest group. Once someone wants to touch Cook, then they will touch the interests of these people. Cook doesn't need to do it directly, and the others have already taken action.

Without a few minutes of rest, another wave of guests walked towards Cook with wine glasses. Cook had to face the new wave of guests with a smile. Anna smiled in her heart when she saw Cook's reluctant look.

"Hello, Your Highness," the visitor saw Cook, quickly raised his glass and greeted Cook.

"Hello, Grand Duke Mano," Cook also raised his wine glass with a smile, and then said,

In a few days, Cook attended dozens of cocktail parties, and he met thousands of people. These people were all those Cook needed to meet in person. Of course, nothing unpleasant happened. Cook felt that this was even more tiring than fighting.

The annual celebration of the Free Alliance is not only a way to increase the popularity of the Free Alliance, but also a new product launch event and a grand event for commodity trading. At that time, the unique products from all parts of the Sanctuary Plane will come to participate in this trade fair. If you are lucky, you are valued by the Free Chamber of Commerce and then invest, then you will be developed.

Of course, the biggest hottest thing about the annual celebration of the Liberty League is the auction. There is a large auction here every day, which lasts for a month. The reason why it is a large auction is that the Liberty Chamber of Commerce will bring out some rare goods to auction.

Small auctions are everywhere in Liberty City. After Cook attended the opening ceremony of the annual celebration, he originally wanted to go to the Demon Plane, but Ivys came at this time and asked Cook to accompany him to go shopping. Anna on the other side was full of jealousy, because Anna wanted to secretly host the auction.

"Cook, do you think this is good?" Ivys looked excited and wore a samurai outfit, looking a different flavor.

Ivy's blue hair was a little conspicuous in the crowd. Most people saw Ivy's hair and secretly left a little farther away because these people were relatively strong. The color of the hair showed that this woman had a high affinity for magical elements, which means she was a perverted elemental magician.

"Okay," Cook looked at a wooden carving in Ivy's hand. The carving was vivid, which shows that the carving man had very good skills.

Ivy is in her purse regardless of it. Naturally, someone pays behind Cook. Cook doesn't need to do anything. After all, Cook is also a person with status now. Although he doesn't have to be surrounded by people when traveling, at least he still has many followers.

The venue of the entire trade fair is a giant square, which is as large as ten square kilometers. Even so, it is crowded with people at this time. For this reason, the patrol team in the air has doubled. You can see three magic spacecraft hovering at a height of kilometers. At higher altitudes, the shadow of the flying knight flashes from time to time, and the patrol teams on the ground are even more dense.

From time to time, you can see some thieves being beaten and kicked by the patrol team and then taken into custody. This is nothing to do. The thieves just like this scene.

"Cook, come out, you despicable villain, come out," just as Cook took Ivys to wander around the trade fair, a figure suddenly flew into the sky and shouted loudly,

"Who is this?"

"That's right, dare to insult the Speaker of the Liberty League,"

"Hehe, I think it must be Speaker Cook doing something shameful,"

"Haha," Cook frowned when he heard the teasing of the people around him.

Ivys whispered to Cook, "Cook, what should I do?"

"Hmph, this guy is so arrogant. He actually wants to make trouble at this time. I want to see how he ends up," Cook snorted and ignored.

"I am the Lord of Stormwind City Trust, the despicable Lord of Free City Cook, the former friend of this despicable Lord of Free City, but after he gained a lot of wealth, he kicked me away, and now he has to deal with me," Trust said loudly in the air, his voice rolling for hundreds of kilometers. It is obvious that Trust wants to make Cook's reputation bad or force him to be a palace.

"Hmph, the shitty lord of Stormwind City, I, Paul, is the lord of Stormwind City. This is just a wanted criminal in our lord of Stormwind City. Indeed, this guy was the lord of Stormwind City before, but this guy actually gave all the quota allocated by the Free Alliance to the chamber of commerce that he secretly controlled, and raised the prices, and seized the market of the surrounding alliances. As the lord of Stormwind City, Trust was embezzled public funds and built the city by his own family. There were a large number of black accounts and involved the destruction of several chambers of commerce families. Now Trust is a wanted criminal in Stormwind City, and as the new lord of Stormwind City, I have submitted a wanted request to the Alliance Council," another person stood up and retorted loudly.

"You lied, Stormwind City was originally established by our family," Trus roared loudly with a angrily face.

"Bah, your family was established, so the lives of these more than 600 people in the chambers of commerce should be vain. There is also embezzlement of public funds, so that the civilians of Storm City could only hide in the house when the storm came. Or is the entire Storm City the private property of your family, what is there to prove it?" Paul retorted loudly.

At this moment, a voice spoke: "I am the current consul of the Liberty League. We have approved the request of the Lord Paul. Trusts will be wanted by the Liberty League, and any forces that cover up the Trusts will be sanctioned by the Liberty League."

"Hahahaha, come on, come on, I want to see who you can come to arrest me, Cook, you are a shameless villain, villain, you are just a bastard," Trust cursed with all his heart.

"Hmph, I am Kaisen of the Purple Golden Flower Empire,"

"And Mali of my Gorefresh Chamber of Commerce,"

"I am Dyson of Green Island City State," just after the Trust said that, three figures flew up in the crowd. These three figures were dressed in a mage. The huge aura had already shown that these were three powerful men of the demigod level.

“I am Robut of the Temple of Goddess of Nature and Life,”

"I am Jos of the Temple of the Goddess of the Night,"
