The 127th act is over
Williams looked gentle and not aggressive at all. But he actually forced the Dye Association's people to make a choice.
Not only Carlton was angry and irritable, but the others in the Dye Association were the same.
Incompetent furious.
Incompetent furious.
The choice given by Williams was said to be a choice, but he had no choice at all.
"Mr. Williams, Mr. Drake, please wait." Carlton squeezed an extremely ugly smile on his face. He was lined up with other mers from the Dye Association, and only Williams and Drake were left in the conference room.
"Would you be too forced?" Drake asked.
Monopoly business does have great benefits, but the risks are equally huge.
People like Drake who have reached middle-aged mentality, even though they say it, they still want to be at peace in their hearts.
Although the money for synthetic dyes has expanded a lot, is it really good that it has angered so many people?
Williams picked up the coffee and took a sip. The bitter taste hit his spirit a little more.
He looked at Drake, shook his head slightly, not knowing what he was sighing.
"Captain, my teacher said, 'When seeking peace by struggle, peace exists; when seeking peace by compromise, peace is forgotten.'
We have the technology and force so that they will negotiate with us.
Are these merchants from the Dye Association a little sheep?
If we make concessions, will they let us take ten steps back when we make concessions?
This world looks dazzling, but in the end it is still strength.
I think you understand this, don’t you?"
Williams said.
Captain Drake did not agree with Williams' words so easily.
He understands the truth, but whether he understands the truth or not is different from whether he will do this.
He is the captain.
But he was just Captain Drake.
There were just a few offshore boats, wandering with the captains on the coast of New England.
He is not the old captain Vanderbilt, not to mention that the old captain has now been ashore.
Some people say that when a person expands, his highest achievement in his life will come to this point.
That's right. Carlton's nephew, Gilbert, owns a small factory, has already expanded like a puffer fish.
However, Williams felt that if a person does not inflate but loses his enterprising spirit, his highest achievement in his life will still come here.
He looked at Drake, the captain in his prime, and thought in his heart whether he would ask the teacher to find other better collaborators after returning to New Haven.
Or…form a fleet yourself.
Drake looked at Williams and muttered in his heart, "Young."
The two remaining people in the conference room had their own ideas in their minds.
At the end of the corridor, the people in another room were very noisy.
"Can't agree! Can't agree! Did that little devil treat him as God? What did he treat us as again? The gentle and cute little lamb?"
"What if he really did do what he said?"
"Then let's fight! We have so many people, what are we afraid of?"
"But……"
"Nothing but!"
...
"Okay!" Carlton shouted.
As long as a group encounters pressure, it will be divided into two factions, the pro-war faction and the surrender faction. The greater the pressure, the clearer the two factions will be, and the more extreme it will be.
"We want to unite!" Carlton stressed.
Although he was calling for unity, he did not believe that all members of the Dye Association would really unite.
What you lack is what you want.
Now just one negotiation has divided the member representatives of the Dye Association into two factions.
if……
If the struggle really starts.
Carlton believed that someone in the Dye Association would definitely turn against Doug Clayden's embrace.
Even... even turn against each other.
Because the more you turn against me, the more you can sell yourself at a good price.
The membership of the North American Dye Association did not seem complicated.
There are factory owners, planters, and people like him who are responsible for transportation.
Before Doug Clayden appeared, everyone was in the upstream and downstream of the industrial chain and served as a link between the upstream and downstream.
If you use a destroyed word to describe it, it is "coexistence and prosperity", which is a relationship of prosperity and loss.
The industry associations of this era are basically the same.
But Doug Clayden showed up with the damn synthetic dye.
Planters grow plants that can produce natural dyes. The emergence of synthetic dyes will greatly encroach on the market that originally belonged to them even if they do not squeeze them into the garbage dump of history.
Therefore, they must kill with Doug Clayden.
This is not the case for factory owners. Without comparison, there is no harm. When there is no synthetic dye, there are only natural dyes, and no matter how much the price is, you must accept it.
However, when synthetic dyes are available, natural dyes are extremely expensive compared to them.
They joined the Dye Association in order to obtain dyes more stably and at a low price.
And now, Williams says they are going to set up the Pan American Dye Society, why wouldn't they surrender and Doug?
As for intermediate transporters like Carlton, they are relatively neutral, but also more subtle.
It seems that natural dyes are also for transportation, and synthetic dyes are also for transportation.
However! Compared with natural dyes, synthetic dyes are no longer affected by the origin, climate, and multiple colors can be synthesized in a small factory.
The complexity and distance of transportation are greatly reduced and shortened.
Even in large-scale industrial clusters where dyes are needed, factories can be set up directly nearby.
In this way, the attributes of their middlemen will be greatly reduced. The factory can even sell directly without middlemen.
In this way, the transporters represented by Carlton naturally became neutral and tended to be the main battle.
but……
Things are not that simple.
Transporters are different from planters.
There are many things that can be transported by ships. If you park in the port once, you can change different cargoes.
However, plantations are different. Even if dye crops are removed from roots and other crops are planted, they must be allowed to grow.
The cost of changing business direction is different, and the intensity of the main battle is naturally different.
therefore……
The transporter may not be really that necessary to fight.
Williams has fewer disputes about interests and can be said casually, but Carlton has to take into account the interests of the three parties and glue the three parties together to avoid the North American Dye Association's self-destruction.
but……
How easy is this?
The members who are quarreling and quarreling will not accept anyone.
The Dye Association seems to be like a broken ship that has leaked water.
Chapter completed!
