Chapter 494: Horse dealer Zhang Shiping
"Yes, let as many merchants as possible buy fairy drunk, this will also help the fame of fairy drunk, Ben Hou still has a lot of fairy drunk in his hands, so let's sell it in the restaurant in Pengcheng for the time being." Lu Budao.
Mi Zhu was overjoyed when he heard this, the immortal drunk already had a resounding reputation among the merchants who came to Pengcheng, but more businessmen did not taste the immortal drunk, thousands of dollars a pot of immortal drunkenness is unattainable for ordinary people, but it is different when it is put on the rich businessman.
The price of the immortal drunk itself is relatively expensive, and if they buy a large amount of immortal drunk and there is no market, it is also an intolerable thing for the merchants.
Tasting the fairy drunk in advance can help them make better judgments.
"The price of immortal drunkenness, Ben Hou has also heard about it, in this case, Xuzhou's income will increase more in the future." Lu Bu said with a smile.
Mi Zhu nodded yes, he didn't ask about the cost of the immortal drunkenness, this is also Mi Zhu's shrewdness, one thing, if the monarch wants to inform, even if he doesn't ask, the monarch will tell, if the monarch doesn't reveal the meaning and asks, it will definitely have a certain impact.
Mi Zhu has been in Xuzhou officialdom for many years, and he still has an understanding of some things.
Lu Bu handed over the sale of the fairy drunk to the Xuzhou Chamber of Commerce to dispose of, which is of great help to the influence of the Xuzhou Chamber of Commerce.
"My lord, there are many businessmen who want to join the Xuzhou Chamber of Commerce, and most of these businessmen are foreign businessmen." Mi Zhu said.
Lu Bu nodded and said: "The development of the Chamber of Commerce to the point where it is now, it will naturally attract many businessmen to join, in the selection of businessmen who enter the Chamber of Commerce, Zizhong must pay more attention to it, and let some big businessmen enter it as much as possible." β
"Small businessmen can enter the Chamber of Commerce through mutual association."
"The lord is wise." Mi Zhu arched his hand.
The power of small businessmen can also not be ignored, and small businessmen will be more pure than big businessmen, they may not have the support of big families behind them, but such businessmen are easier to control, not to mention that there will be other problems after entering the Chamber of Commerce.
After the power of small businessmen is united, it is also extremely powerful, through the way of association, let the businessmen enter the chamber of commerce, if someone violates the system of the chamber of commerce, everyone will be punished, in this way, it will make the businessmen more cautious when choosing the union, to avoid more problems in the future.
"Lord, Zhang Shiping is waiting outside, and he also wants to join the Chamber of Commerce." Mi Zhu said.
Zhang Shiping is a horse dealer, Mi Zhu knows this, the war horses in the Xuzhou army also have a certain relationship with Zhang Shiping, it can be said that Zhang Shiping's horse trafficking is of great help to the improvement of the military strength of the Xuzhou army.
"Oh? Let him in. Lu Budao.
Lu Bu is still quite satisfied with the war horses sold by Zhang Shiping, if Zhang Shiping can be recruited, the army will not need to worry about the war horses in the future.
The sophistication of the war horses on the grassland is not comparable to the war horses of the Han Dynasty, if they are purchased through normal means, the fine war horses cost tens of thousands of dollars each, and through Zhang Shiping, the cost of the war horses can be reduced to the lowest level.
And this kind of situation is also what Zhang Shiping needs, after all, when Zhang Shiping took the goods from Xuzhou, the price was lower than that of other merchants.
When Xianyu appeared, it attracted the horse dealer Zhang Shiping.
Lu Bu believed that after meeting Zhang Shiping this time, it would be relatively much easier to recruit Zhang Shiping, because at this time, his influence among the princes had been greatly improved, which was a certain attraction for businessmen.
It is undeniable that Zhang Shiping has strong assets, but Zhang Shiping is a businessman after all, and in this era, the status of businessmen itself is low, even if they have strong financial resources, it is difficult to get more recognition.
"Retire from your duties." Mi Zhu said goodbye and left.
The things that Zhang Shiping discussed with Lu Bu must be related to the affairs in the army, among the Mi family, Mi Fang is a general in the army, but Mi Zhu is still extremely cautious when doing things in ordinary times, and he cannot be feared by the monarch, which is the most basic.
Even if the Mi family has such an achievement in Xuzhou, if it causes the monarch to be dissatisfied, what kind of consequences will it have, Mi Zhu is also clear, and doing things according to the monarch's orders as much as possible will be more helpful for the development of the family.
As for disobeying the monarch's orders, or having other actions in secret, it is definitely not a wise move, and it can be seen from Lu Bu's previous actions that Lu Bu is far from being as simple as the Xuzhou family imagined.
If Lu Bu's methods were very simple, how could he gain a smooth foothold among the princes, and Lu Bu's achievements among the princes were also obvious to all, following behind such a monarch, if it was appropriate, it was obvious that the strength and influence of the family would be greatly enhanced.
Whether he is in business or an official, Mi Zhu's principle is to help Lu Bu as much as possible, even if the interests of the family are sometimes damaged.
The courtier and the monarch themselves are mutual, the monarch gives more trust to the courtier, and if the courtier can give the monarch more in return, he will get more respect from the monarch.
Through observation, Mi Zhu gradually discovered that in fact, in Lu Bu's eyes, there was no clear division between Shinong and industry.
As long as it is a useful talent in Xuzhou, it can be paid corresponding attention, in this regard, Lu Bu's behavior is very different from that of other princes, but it is such a monarch who can make the courtiers under his rule have more confidence, and can let the recruited talents show what they are good at.
Before, the Mi family was despised in Xuzhou because of business, and after the Mi family took refuge in Lu Bu, this situation was improved to a certain extent.
If the merchant could be treated better under Lu Bu's rule, it would be a good thing for the merchant.
LΓΌ Bu had a bad reputation among the princes, and how much influence did this have on merchants, because the merchant industry was also lowly in the eyes of literati.
Zhang Shiping came to Xuzhou this time to transport war horses.
