The economic base determines the superstructure!

Compared with the Han Empire at this time, Liaodong has been formed to open the difference, in the Guannai, the rulers are the big landlords who have a lot of land to cultivate and read heirlooms, and the big landlords' estates are also the main economic foundation of the Han Empire.

In addition to the homesteaders he cultivated, there were even large tracts of land leased to merchants in the form of contracts, and they hired people to cultivate them, which also surpassed the feudal farms, which was somewhat similar to the business model of the central large farms of the American devils in later generations.

The people who govern here are the warlords and the big businessmen.

Then the investment conference held in Jinzhou was a grand gathering of warlords and businessmen colluding together.

Not to mention, the business is more diligent than the Shi clan who exploit serfs as rice worms, after all, the Shi clan only needs to wait for the autumn harvest to collect taxes and exchange food for money and pleasure, and no matter how big the boss is, he has to participate in the operation, if it is in the Guannei, Wang Houfa this investment solicitation order, it will take at least a month to gather all the people, and Liaodong, five days, as far away as Lianjiao City to do business, have come.

Now the business scholars have also formed a unique culture of the business scholars, such as this time the cocktail party, before the scholars were one person and one table, and it was good to drink and eat and watch the little girl sing and dance, but this time there was no fixed table at all, a row of square tables was placed in the middle of the banquet hall on the third floor of the Jinzhou official mansion, and there were all kinds of good wine and ready-made dim sum cold meals and the like, which could be taken at will.

Because compared with the rhythm of life of the scholars, who were full of food and drink, chanting poetry and painting, the merchants were much faster, and they needed to exchange information at any time, such as what the price of mountain goods was in the port this season, and the merchants who went deep into the mountains of Liaodong to buy medicinal materials handed over new orders with the merchants who opened shops in the port, or exchanged all the information that was conducive to commerce.

But even if he is so busy, compared to the development of the island city and Ma'anshan, the number of big businessmen who came to participate in Wang Hou's meeting was more than doubled, and it was no longer limited to the businessmen who had been in Qingxu for two weeks, as far south as Jingzhou Wu Jun, west to Guanzhong Liangzhou, and even a dozen or so bearded and turbaned Hu merchants from the Western Regions who didn't know where to get the invitation tickets and mixed into the venue.

These guys don't recognize their lives, they speak a crash course version of the official dialect, cheekily squeeze into the local circle, and also exchange information.

This also shows that Wang Hou's support class is also becoming stronger and more extensive, and it is opposed to the traditional Confucian status of Shinong and business, these rising big capitalist vampires can only follow in the footsteps of Wang Hou, and they cannot change their court and be loyal to any other warlord, which is Wang Hou's biggest advantage! He is going to make himself the East India Company of the Han Empire!

The next step into the grassland is also an extremely important step for him to move towards the Great Han East India Company!

"The lord has arrived!"

Suddenly, a few heavy armored infantry standing at the door suddenly stood up and saluted, with the Wenchen strategists under his command, Wang Hou limped in, but this walking posture did not damage his majesty at all, as he entered, the hall that was boiling in the sky instantly became silent, and in the next second, all the big businessmen knew him or not, they were neatly clasped their fists and bowed down.

"Meet General Zhenbei!"

"Rise up, everybody! Haha, Tian Lao finally came early today, so I don't need to send someone to invite me again! ”

In the crowd, Tian Suiran, the "Liaodong Big Coal Boss", was also there with his beard and talking highly, listening to Wang Hou's jokes, the old guy couldn't help but blush, and replied with a wry smile and a fist: "The general doesn't want to laugh at the old man!" The general sent the rich to the old decay, but the old decay didn't know it, it was really ashamed! ”

A joke enlivened up the originally serious atmosphere of the venue a lot, and while walking towards the main stage, Wang Hou laughed loudly.

"That's also Tian Lao Hongfu! If you have a rich seat, you have to chase Tian Lao to send it! ”

"But this time, Fugui is not as easy to get as it was in the coal mine! You are well-informed, and you should all know that this year I have an appointment with the Xianbei Lord Ke Neng! Liaodong! A city is going to be built in the steppe! And this building is the wealth that I want to discuss with you! ”

Suddenly, the huge map of the desert south and north was put down from the rostrum, looking at the densely painted rivers, grasslands and swamps on it, a large group of Liaodong businessmen couldn't help but pay all their attention to the past, and the impression of the press conference was deepened a lot.

However, this big picture, in fact, most of it was made up by Wang Hou, no tricks, and there is no satellite GPS to take pictures in these years, such a big desert in the south and north, where can he find out the terrain clearly, only part of it is drawn according to the memory of Li Hu and other Xianbei people, and the rest are all made up and spent.

However, this year, the map represents power, and I don't plan to really follow them anyway.

It is also very much in the style of the new product launch conference of later generations, showing the PPT car project, so Wang Hou has some actual products, with his slap, the maids are on a large number of small cups of bone china, the cup contains a cup of pale white lotion, on the other end, several guards carried a few large boxes, after opening, it is full of clumps of wool, thick and thin.

Didn't use Wang Hou's invitation, running to those small cups, these big businessmen have consciously divided, one person one cup at a time, and after drinking, let's click the mouth, but now the output of bone china has not kept up, regardless of the scarcity of high-end and low-end bone china on the market, in front of Wang Hou, many people take the cup directly as a gift, stuffed in the sleeves, and see that Wang Grandai is mouth is straight twitch, so he had to not see it.

After tasting the new milk tea, the curious business groups were like cats, one of them took a woolen ball and played with it at hand.

"What do you think?"

"The general is really elegant, I drank milk under it, but I didn't expect that milk and tea could be boiled together, the flavor is extraordinarily novel and delicious, and this thread should be woolen thread! Near Wu Kangju, some Qiang people will comb their hair into this kind of wool, but theirs is all wool threads, which are not as gorgeous as the general's colored threads! ”

"Both can be sold for a good price!"

Not to mention, no wonder the Mongols are in charge of the finances, these Western Regions bigwigs do have a set of business, Wang Hou's voice just fell, a high-nosed and deep-eyed Western Regions businessman spoke that tongue-twisting Chinese, and actually gave an answer, Wang Hou, who listened to it, couldn't help but be depressed, he also planned to sell Guanzi in a false way!

But since he answered, there was no need for Wang Hou to bother to speak, he took out a leather bag from the seat, took a ball of wool in his hand, and held two things, he restrained his smile and said solemnly.

"These two things are the main purpose of this seat!"

"Yarn and milk powder!"
