Chapter 2178: A Strange Coincidence

But now that they have come to the Merchant Alliance, they have been given management positions, but they still have to do things that only younger brothers need to do. Do you think they will agree?

To put it bluntly, even if the Merchant Alliance gives them money, they will leave as soon as possible and return to their previous employers.

Even if they can't go back, they will start a new business and will never be bullied in a place like the Merchant Alliance.

In this way, the Merchant Alliance not only spent money, but also failed to retain people. In the end, it can only be a loss of both money and people, and the gain will not outweigh the loss.

After all, junior generals have their own pride. Even if their combat effectiveness in the Merchant Alliance can only be ranked at the bottom, they are masters in their previous employers or in the Sky Island World.

So it is a daydream to buy them off for a little iron ore and let them rebel.

As for why they will not really give them management positions, in addition to their large number, it is more for better control of them.

Because once they become managers, they will gain real power. At that time, they can enter many secret areas of the Merchant Alliance at will, and they can command some members of the grassroots forces to do things they don't want to do.

After all, they are managers, and they must follow orders even if they are reluctant.

If they are thinking about the Chamber of Commerce, then it is okay to give them such positions, but if these people are not sincere in joining the Chamber of Commerce, but have some conspiracy, then Jiang Tian will not fall into their trap, and will he not let the wolf into the house?

You must know that such people can betray their old boss for the Chamber of Commerce today, so they can also betray the Chamber of Commerce for more iron ore in the past.

So the Chamber of Commerce can only use them as the bottom minions, and it is absolutely impossible to let them become the middle management of the Chamber of Commerce like Zhang San and Liu Yidao.

So even if the Chamber of Commerce spends money, it can't spend too much, let alone take out iron ore that is several times more than the iron ore reserves of the entire force of the other party to trade them, even if Jiang Tian has the same amount of iron ore as the other party's reserves, he will not take it.

After all, even if all these people are recruited, they will not help the Chamber of Commerce too much.

Because any one of the four strongest fighters, Lu Bu, Huo Qubing, Li Cunxiao, and Li Xiuning, can be as many as a thousand of them.

Such people can only run errands, go out to perform some ordinary tasks, such as mining.

If there is a real fight, Lü Bu, Huo Qubing, Li Cunxiao, Li Xiuning, Liu Yidao, Zhang San and others are definitely more reliable.

So this is destined that the importance of these people is not that high. Since it is not that high, how could Jiang Tian be stupid enough to spend so much money on them.

If the Merchant Alliance does not have masters like Lü Bu, Huo Qubing, Li Cunxiao, Li Xiuning, Zhang San, and Liu Yidao, then it is reasonable to spend some money to recruit these generals who have mastered the initial stage of integration to train as the first-tier combat personnel.

But with these masters in place, these people have become dispensable.

Because in front of the four super generals Lü Bu, Li Cunxiao, Huo Qubing, and Li Xiuning, these people are not comparable at all. Such people cannot be ranked in the Merchant Alliance at all and can only be regarded as minions.

Moreover, if you want to make the Merchant Alliance completely stable, it is definitely not enough to recruit a hundred or so junior generals.

If you want to make the Merchant Alliance stronger, there must be at least tens of thousands of such junior generals, and at least their combined combat power must exceed the combined combat power of Huo Qubing, Li Xiuning, Li Cunxiao, Lu Bu and others.

Otherwise, there are already Lu Bu, Li Xiuning, Huo Qubing, Li Cunxiao and others, and there is no point in recruiting these people.

Moreover, these people may not join sincerely, and they may rebel at any time, so Jiang Tian naturally cannot entrust such people with important tasks, and naturally will not spend too much money and time on such people.

If he really has that time, he might as well spend money and time on Lu Bu, Huo Qubing, Li Cunxiao, Li Xiuning, or spend more resources to improve the strength of Liu Yidao and Zhang San.

However, it is one thing for Jiang Tian to understand it in his heart, and it is another thing for others to understand it.

In short, if Jiang Tian suddenly recruits so many people, no matter if he has any ideas or not, others will think he has ideas and wants to take some actions.

And such an action requires not one or two people to complete, but at least thousands or tens of thousands of people to complete.

You should know that among the major forces in the Sky Island World, the force with the largest number of people has only thousands of people, which is dozens of times less than tens of thousands.

So the Chamber of Commerce suddenly recruited so many people, how can others not be afraid, how can they not have wild thoughts.

Because the number of these recruited people may be dozens or hundreds of times more than the total number of people in other forces.

At that time, even if their strength was originally equal, now with so many people joining, the strength of the Chamber of Commerce will definitely rise.

To put it bluntly, tens of thousands of people against thousands of people, unless the other party also has super generals like Lu Bu, Huo Qubing, Li Cunxiao, and Li Xiuning, who can fight against thousands of people.

Otherwise, this difference of dozens of times in number can definitely be called a crushing defeat.

Even if they only use heads, they can pile up the other side to death, or even drown the other side with one person's urine.

So if the business alliance is not attacking other forces or fighting for hegemony, there is no need to do this.

Why do you have to make such a move when you clearly have no intention of competing for hegemony? Isn't this just making enemies for yourself?

So even if the Chamber of Commerce has no ambition in this regard, recruiting people is just to go out to perform more tasks, explore more restrictions, and discover more rare materials so that you can develop more new products.

But do you think others will believe this? Even if it is true, they dare not let the Chamber of Commerce do this.

Because once the Chamber of Commerce is really strong, then they will be slowly eaten away by the Chamber of Commerce like a big fish eating a small fish.

In their eyes, the Chamber of Commerce used to be a small fish. No matter how he tossed it, others would not be afraid.

Because compared to this small fish, they are the big fish that make people tremble.

But now the small fish has been upgraded to a big fish. They have changed from a big fish to a small fish, and from a hunter to a prey.

Even if this hunter is kind-hearted and will not hunt other prey at will.

But prey is prey after all. Whether it will be hunted is not up to them. It is not something they can decide. They can't control it.
