For the small shareholders who had been invited, the interview with the merfolk nobles was pretty boring. At the very least, it couldn't compare to the desert dancers' performance. That at least had legs and asses to look at.
And now the merfolk were answering the host's questions in a stiff, orderly manner, which only made them more restless. The problem was that they couldn't understand much of what was being said, so these decidedly low-tier shareholders couldn't pick out any important information at all.
Mr. Ivankov had specifically emphasized how important this interview was, but the problem was that they knew it mattered without knowing how to extract useful information from it. That left them feeling rather glum. Were they really unsuited to business? Had their previous fantasies of becoming "business magnates" just been wishful thinking?
Could that really be?
Perhaps to look after these clients whose confidence had taken a hit, staff from the Mistsea Trading Company soon handed out booklets to the shareholders. They distilled the key points about the Atlantean Kingdom's exploration of the Savage Sea and the Plantagenet Kingdom's expansion into the New World. The company's staff had even thoughtfully laid out, in concise and clear mind maps, how to use this information to make money.
These booklets made sure that anyone who could read could understand the Mistsea Trading Company's business model. And once they accepted this seemingly flawless logic, it was as though everyone had become a business magnate. They had never imagined that shifts in the world situation could hide so many business opportunities!
The thought process was simple enough to give readers the confidence they needed!
If they didn't rely on the Mistsea Trading Company and just followed these leads to do business, they could surely make a fortune too, right?
