When Zhong Xuanlan and the others went to Fengzhou Forest City, Kyoto City also became very lively.

The Chamber of Commerce, under the control of the Chu Da master, re-elected ten stewards, and just took office today.

With the full expectation of the Chu masters, they held their first meeting.

in the council chamber.

The head of Chu Da said straight to the point: "This morning, the emperor summoned this president and said two things.

The first is the issue of military salaries, so that our chamber of commerce can help.

The second thing is to let our chamber of commerce cooperate with the Ministry of Industry and the Ministry of Households to build a palace.

I wonder if you have any suggestions? ”

The master of Chu knew that the ten people were selected by him, and everyone should support his questions and what he meant.

However, he forgot that when their respective interests were involved, how could they be on his side!

The ten stewards said in unison, "We will obey the president's orders." ”

When Master Chu heard this, he glanced at everyone, did these people have no idea or didn't want to get their hands dirty?

The carpenter of the Liu family is quite famous in Kyoto City, and he knows more about the decoration, so Chu Da said: "Steward Liu, you can talk about it." ”

Steward Liu said: "I don't have any ideas, how the president wants to do it, I just obey." ”

Well, just pay the money.

"What do you think of the president's request for your family to cooperate with the construction of the palace?" Master Chu asked.

Steward Liu said euphemistically: "The president should know that his brother is settling accounts.

As long as the price is right, I immediately asked people to stop their errands and cooperate with the Ministry of Works. ”

Master Chu frowned, thought for a while, and said, "I don't know how much Steward Liu plans to pay for this price?" ”

Steward Liu responded: "My Liu family will not open his mouth, as long as my Liu family makes a profit." ”

Chu Da disagreed in his heart, he just wanted to pay the cost.

"Shouldn't Steward Liu cooperate with this court errand?"

Steward Liu sneered, hehe, use the court to suppress me, then don't blame me.

"I remember that the president's business house also has many carpenter shops, if the president agrees to give out things for free, and let the carpenter work for free, then my Liu family only charges the cost."

After speaking, Steward Liu glanced at the steward opposite him again.

The person on the other side received the hint and said loudly: "President, my family also has carpenters in the firm, and if the president is willing to contribute money and effort to the court for free, I am also willing to order about thirty carpenters to decorate the palace." ”

The Great Master of Chu didn't expect that the harmonious Chamber of Commerce would become tense three days ago, and the steward he elected would point the finger at him.

That's right, everyone is an old fritter mixed in Kyoto City, how can they compromise easily.

It seems that he had thought badly.

"In that case, the chairman will go and consult with the people of the household.

Next, let's talk about military salaries, the emperor wants us to take 500,000 taels of silver, but now our chamber of commerce only has 10,000 taels of silver, what do you suggest? ”

Everyone was silent.

After a long time, when Master Chu saw that no one spoke, he finally understood that everyone was waiting for him!

"I want the merchants to pay, what do you think?"

Steward Liu said: "I agree with the president's idea, but who is going to say this? I'm not eloquent, I'm definitely not up to the task, don't wait for me to make it clear, everyone will misunderstand the Chamber of Commerce. ”

"I think the president's influence is relatively large, the president, you go and talk to the president of the six state branches, maybe it will be successful."

"I agree with Steward Li's words, as soon as you come to the president, you are elected by everyone, and everyone recognizes you.

Second, in Kyoto City, the president's family is also an imperial merchant, which is definitely more convincing than ours. ”

“……”

When the head of Chu saw that ten people asked him to deal with this matter, these people were hiding behind him, his heart was full of anger, and he wanted to change people at this time and re-elect.

However, he also knew that it was impossible!

Master Chu rubbed his temples and said, "The president of the Liuzhou Chamber of Commerce is there, and the president will go and say."

Of the five imperial merchants in Kyoto City, ten of you are in charge.

Every two people go to one and convince them.

If you can't say that, don't do it. ”

The ten people looked at the master of Chu in unison and said perfunctorily: "Yes." ”

Hehe, can you do it, now it's not what you Chu Da said!

The meeting broke up.

The master of Chu sat alone on the main seat in a daze.

At this moment, he already understood that the World Chamber of Commerce was not so in charge.

These people are like loaches, slippery, and they are in response to their mouths, and when they do it, they are in a different set, which gives him a headache.

However, Zhong Xuanlan's girl can do it, and he Chu Yun will definitely not lose to her!

On the other hand, there was also a discussion about military salaries and the construction of the palace.

Kyoto Prefecture Yin Hou Ya.

"Childish, where do you think Xinlan will go?"

Master Zeng drank tea slowly, and he also wanted to know where Zhong Xuanlan had gone.

Zhong Xuanlan's dead girl left a mess, shook her hands and ran away.

At this moment, he really wanted to beat her up.

"Childish, are you angry?

I heard Xinlan say that you came to get it because you have foreign wine.

You can't blame me for this, who let you finish moving?

And it's been a few days, you big man need to be so stingy! ”

Zeng Youzhi glanced at Prince Mu coldly, "I'm stingy, it's obviously Zhong Xuanlan who is stingy, you just believe what she said." ”

Prince Mu touched his nose to hide his embarrassment, "I just believe what's wrong?" Aren't you also being coerced? ”

Zeng Youzhi was stabbed hard in his heart, put the teacup on the table heavily, and only heard a "click".

After that, he said angrily, "What are you doing here?" ”

"Uh, that, Uncle Wang asked you to blackmail the merchant who set the fire that night a sum of money."

"You're asking me to blackmail people?" Zeng Youzhi looked at Prince Mu unhappily, "I won't do this?" I'm a decent man, and I would never do such a thing. ”

Prince Mu pouted, just a decent gentleman like you.

"You can not do it, and when your family comes up with a large sum of money, don't regret it!"

Zeng Youzhi asked, "What's wrong?" ”

"In the early morning of the past two days, the minister and the minister have been discussing the military salary and the construction of the palace.

Uncle Wang said that I am afraid that it will be handed over to the Chamber of Commerce and the Ministry of Households.

When the time comes, as soon as the two sides exert pressure, the merchants will definitely get money.

Now that there are ready-made wrongdoers in prison, think about it yourself, do you want to do it? ”

Zeng Youzhi thought if I could take back those words? What a slap in the face!

He glared at Prince Mu, agreed in his heart, and for the sake of face, he said, "I'll think about it, do you still have something to do?" ”

Prince Mu shook his head.

"Lord Wang, then you can go." Zeng Youzhi ordered the expulsion.

Prince Mu glanced at the sky, and at noon, he wanted Zeng Youzhi to invite him to dinner!

"I've done you a great favor, shouldn't you treat me to a meal?"

Zeng Youzhi said angrily: "I'm poor, you hurry up and stay cool!" ”

Took my wine, and wanted me to invite to dinner, no way.

Prince Mu glanced at the stingy Zeng Youzhi, smiled, got up and left.

When the people left, Zeng Youzhi thought about it, to avoid long nights and dreams, and quickly got the silver, so he got up and went to the prison to ask for the silver.
