Under Benjamin's guidance, the actors strategically placed among the guests stood up one by one. After condemning Matthew's arrogant attitude, they left directly. With them taking the lead, others also gradually left.
Naturally, those who left were mostly small forces and small merchants who sought to take advantage of the situation. The true power players remained unmoved, silently observing the unfolding situation.
After all, foolish people were always in the minority. With Benjamin acting as the representative of the Whitford Family and having such close ties with the Keller Family, could his words really be trusted?
Witnessing the impact of his instigation, Benjamin prepared to unleash his next move.
"Matthew, you are nothing more than a dog relying on others. Without our help, you would just be an ordinary commander. Now that things have reached this point, I won't conceal it any longer. On behalf of the Whitford Family and the Keller Family, I, Benjamin Whitford, declare that the core trades of both families will be completely open to the outside world. The Keller Family's shipping and casino industry, as well as the Whitford Family's arms trade, are now open for anyone interested to join."
As soon as these words were spoken, the entire scene erupted in an uproar. These trades were the foundations on which both families relied for survival, and they were all highly profitable industries. Now, they were unexpectedly opening to the outside world.
"Mr. Benjamin, if we decide to join, what would be the approximate purchase price?"
Benjamin calmly smiled. "The specific pricing would require you to negotiate in person. However, I can assure you that the purchase price you'll get will be more than 30% below the market rate."
The initially calm faces of the few individuals instantly changed. It was not that they lacked composure, but the temptation of this offer was just too irresistible.
Benjamin, however, didn't stop at this point. With a subtle nod from him, the elderly Douglas in one of the guest seats slowly stood up.
"Though I'm quite old now, if you don't mind, I'd also like to get involved a bit."
When he finished speaking, everyone was astonished. In his younger days, Douglas was the vice chairman of the Skargness Chamber of Commerce. Even though he had retired for many years, his extensive network still held significant influence. With his participation, the commercial battle between the Whitford and Keller Families was bound to reach a whole new level.
Benjamin laughed heartily and said, "Mr. Kirby, you're as strong as ever. It's an honor for us younger folks to have you join our collaboration. There's no room for any reservations."
The two parties had reached a cooperation agreement a few days ago, and everything happening now was just a staged performance.
