Lynch had just settled in for less than half an hour when the personal attendant of the mayor of Curilan City was already waiting outside his door. After Lynch changed his clothes, he received him, though the term "receive" might not be quite appropriate here.
"Hello, Mr. Lynch, I’m Noah. I personally welco you to Curilan City..." The attendant nad Noah looked to be about thirty-three or thirty-four, very energetic, and quite handso. He had an unmistakable aura about him.
People often say that talent and appearance are unrelated, but in reality, when looking at the entire Federation’s public officials, those public figures, not one of them is ugly.
The ugliest among them rely resemble the average person, far from being considered "ugly."
From Lynch’s perspective, Noah already possessed the deanor to beco the next ruling leader, at least in terms of presence, sothing Noah surpasses Ferrari in.
Of course, there is also a possibility that the local mayor has already disclosed to Noah, whether the mayor is promoted or transferred, he would nominate Noah to succeed his position.
Although such nominations do not hold much intellectual value, the mayor is ultimately elected by the citizens. However, with the previous mayor’s nomination, as long as the current mayor has done reasonably well locally, the citizens would pay heed to his recomndation, giving the nominee a high probability of winning the election.
This is the best path for people like Noah and Ferrari, without exception.
Noah’s aura may co from the fact that this matter has already been settled, allowing him to display such temperant and montum.
Lynch shook hands with him and invited him into the room.
He was staying in the best suite, even though the na suggests no difference between business suite and business suite, the price varies, differentiated by certain optional items.
For instance, a larger living room, more independent studies, more bedrooms, or even a butler and secretary can be requested. Checking these options results in significant differences in the accommodation and environnt.
Lynch chose one of the best rooms in the Curilan Hotel, sotis Lynch was indifferent about such choices, but others valued them greatly.
After the two sat down, the hotel’s butler, upon inquiry, had a maid serve them coffee.
Noah enthusiastically spoke to Lynch about Curilan City’s current anticipation for the second-hand goods auction, "Ever since you began the formal promotion, our citizens have responded enthusiastically and are eagerly anticipating it. If you don’t co soon, I wouldn’t know how to appease those who constantly think about running off to Sabin City!"
This was obviously a playful remark, but not entirely.
Very cheap goods provide irresistible attraction for many families currently experiencing financial difficulties. So have calculated that traveling from Curilan City to Sabin City for the auction, purchasing items and transporting them back, they still save money, causing them to beco restless.
The "miracle" at the second-hand goods auction has been spread throughout the entire state and even a small part of the Federation with the Sabin City mayor’s promotion. Everyone hopes such good fortune will appear in their own city.
Many within the Progressive Party are watching this policy closely. If after a period of validation, it’s proven that its existence indeed ets so citizens’ needs without increasing their living costs and pressures, similar second-hand goods auctions would gradually appear throughout the Federation.
Of course, these second-hand goods auctions have little to do with Lynch, but the mayor of Sabin City will continue to enjoy the political benefits of being the "initiator."
This may even possibly be recorded in history, as a second-hand goods trading frenzy that swept through the entire Federation has both distinctive ti and political characteristics, holding historical book value.
And as the initiator, the Sabin City mayor will undoubtedly earn a place in history for this event.
Lynch might also get a ntion, perhaps in a long paragraph with half a sentence saying — "with the assistance of rchant Lynch..."
Lynch expressed his gratitude for the local governnt’s support, as without it, even negotiating for venue usage would have been difficult.
In this still sowhat pure and innocent era, so inexplicable sentints always linger, like the sanctity of a stadium; many people may never visit a stadium in their lifeti nor participate in any sports activities there, yet it doesn’t stop them from recognizing the stadium’s sanctity.
For singers, hosting concerts in so famous stadiums is their most aspirational pursuit.
This sort of thing happens often, so when Interstellar Trade Company proposed to rent the stadium, it was imdiately rejected. They refused to let vulgar comrcial vibes tarnish the city’s most sacred emblem, until City Hall’s support persuaded the stadium to compromise.
Noah chuckled, "I didn’t help much, just made a phone call..." He paused for a few seconds, allowing Lynch ample ti to interpret the underlying aning behind this statent.
It wasn’t soone else who facilitated this matter; it was Noah himself who personally made it happen. He wasn’t inclined to overtly claim credit, yet through a relatively modest manner, he took the credit upon himself.
Monts later, he continued asking, "May I inquire if there will be any special goods at the auction this ti?" adding with a smile, "I’m rely curious myself."
His curiosity wasn’t about any special goods, but rather about whether it could stir another sensation. In reality, the auction’s true commotion stemd from the concept of "one-dollar purchase of city center apartnts."
Even the Trade Report covered the matter in a small, hand-sized corner, proving what a shock this gimmick brought to the world in this era!
If similar goods appear at the Curilan City auction, then without a doubt, success will be certain.
Lynch nodded, "We’ve prepared two apartnts and two new cars, being auctioned in the second and third phases respectively."
Noah smiled as if satisfied with his curiosity, and began delving into the topic, "I’ve heard from so channels that you intend to split the auction into ’trading’ and ’auctioning’ as two separate businesses?"
Lynch glanced at him briefly; not many people knew about this matter, though he wasn’t overly concerned.
An issue known to two people is bound to be leaked by one of them; if not this person, then that one. Besides, it wasn’t a matter requiring confidentiality.
He straightforwardly nodded, "I plan to split the auction’s operations into two separate businesses, the auction will continue with its current unchanged system, whereas the trading will undergo so changes..."
Noah listened intently, without a hint of skepticism toward Lynch’s ideas despite his youth.
"I noticed that every city has scattered second-hand goods trading places over the years, mostly on sidewalks along certain streets. Unless you happen to spot them, many people wouldn’t even know where to purchase."
He avoided ntioning a more detailed circumstance; in reality, those sidewalk vendors seemingly selling second-hand goods were actually selling stolen goods.
Thieves, lacking proper channels for disposing of stolen items, would have pawnshops press a hundred-dollar item down to ten dollars, and even threaten them.
Proper pawnshops do not deal with such worthless items in Bail Federal. Establishnts with pawnshop characteristics only deal in luxury goods and sell second-hand luxury items, uninterested in ordinary goods.
This resulted in many thieves without channels to dispose of stolen goods resorting to setting up stalls to sell those items. They wouldn’t have fixed tis and locations, unless they deed themselves too safe.
Such behavior led to the uncertainty and instability of spontaneously ford second-hand goods trading, occasionally involving legal issues.
"I have an idea to establish a center dedicated to second-hand goods trading, allowing for better managent and concentration, making it easy for anyone in need of goods but facing financial stress to find suitable items at our trading center."
"As a provider of venues and certain content services, we only charge a managent fee to those who co to trade, while we ourselves will also engage in so goods trading, including recycling certain items."
Noah listened throughout with a serious expression, nodding, "Then building such a venue should require a significant area?"
Lynch nodded once, "It depends on how many people in a region need second-hand goods, but overall, it requires at least tens of thousands of square ters."
Tens of thousands of square ters was rely a general concept, as splitting it into upper, lower, or more layers made it appear less conspicuous.
Noah was actually considering other matters. Indeed, as Lynch speculated, he would receive a nomination from the local mayor because the mayor was his uncle. Currently, he has already begun exercising so mayoral powers.
This has been going on locally for several years, and in many people’s eyes, Noah is the "little mayor," but he is quite capable, garnering positive attitudes and emotions from people toward him.
He aims to promote this matter not only as it was a policy pushed by the Sabin City mayor but values the real worth of the second-hand goods trading market and the jobs that co with the land.
Not only is Sabin City’s situation challenging, but the condition nationwide is difficult. The persistently high unemploynt rate has beco the politicians’ most troubleso issue.
Tens of thousands of square ters of "open-air" market, even if only dozens or hundreds of jobs, to citizens, this represents the leaders’ efforts.
As long as he tries, even if the outco isn’t great, no one will bla him!
