Chapter 305: Opening in the Four Seas (Part I)
Su Bai actually didn't expect that this kid would actually go to Wang Fugui to help him find a way, but Su Bai didn't stop him much, after all, it was a skill to find someone to help him.
As for why Wang Fugui helped Wang Erniu, the reason must be because of Su Bai, but there has never been so-called absolute fairness in this world! Some people have everything when they are born, and some people have struggled all their lives, but they can only wander and struggle in food and clothing, this is the difference between people and people.
On September 9, the day of the Chung Yeung Festival, the Four Seas Chamber of Commerce officially opened, and there were not many businessmen who came to participate, only less than 20 people, originally only 13 people, and the rest of the people joined the Chamber of Commerce after their introduction in the past two days.
After the luxurious carriages drove into the county, they stopped at the door of the Four Seas Chamber of Commerce, looking curiously at the majestic buildings in front of them. There are three floors in the Four Seas Chamber of Commerce, each of which has more than 5,000 square meters and more than 20 meters high! The building is a majestic mess.
The first layer is the processing center, which is full of business information, such as how much is the green vegetables in the county now, how much is the green vegetables in Chang'an, and so on. The second floor is a place for merchants to talk about things, and there are private rooms on top of it, where merchants can spy on them.
At the corner of the stairs on the first and second floors, there is a large bulletin board, which will be pasted with the needs of merchants, such as Wang Fugui needs a sum of raw silk and wants to buy it at what price, it will be written "Buy raw silk, price xxx"
In the same way, if there is any goods that you want to sell, it will be written on it "raw silk for sale, the price xx, how much is in total" and so on.
As for the third floor, it was set aside for Su Bai to use alone! Of course, it is used to deal with disputes.
Gao Yuan rubbed his belly, which was getting bigger and bigger, and asked with a smile, "This chamber of commerce is built of cement, right?" Wang Fatzi nodded with a smile, "That's right!" The inside and outside are full of cement, and there are steel bars sandwiched inside, and the strong ones can't be strong anymore! ”
Then he also rubbed his belly, which was no smaller than Gao Yuan, and said, "I heard what kind of reinforced concrete building this is, it is said that even if you meet the earth dragon and turn over, there will be no problem!" The merchants present were shocked at the same time, and the earth dragon was not afraid to turn over? That's pretty impressive!
Wang Fatzi looked at their surprised eyes, and casually pointed to the new city and said, "Don't be surprised, all the people in the county, the new houses are built of reinforced concrete." Gao Yuan swallowed a mouthful of saliva and said, "How much silver is enough?" ”
Wang Fatzi shrugged his shoulders and said, "I don't know, it's definitely not less anyway", Li Jiaojiao asked with some doubts, "It's all ordinary people, where do you get the money to build this kind of house?" Wang Fatzi smiled and said, "You still don't know about the county", and then Wang Fatzi said proudly, "Almost all the families of the people in the county have a good income, if they all go out to work, I am afraid that they can have an income of more than 200 yuan a day!" ”
Upon hearing this, the merchants were surprised again! Before, they only knew that the county was rich, but they didn't understand why it was rich, but now let Wang Fatzi say this, he understands what it means to hide wealth from the people!
Huang Lei, a thin old man, looked at the people around him and said, "Do you find it, the people here are not like the low-eyebrow cowardice in other counties, but a top spirit, after seeing us, there is no feeling of envy of the rich, but some inexplicable sense of pride!" ”
Li Jiaojiao covered her mouth and chuckled, "It turns out that the slave family itself has this idea", and the rest of the merchants also nodded in agreement, saying that they also felt this way. Wang Fugui chuckled and said, "Naturally, they are the people under the Wushuang Marquis!" Naturally, I have the capital to be proud of."
As he spoke, he heard the sound of horses' hooves on the street corner, and when he turned his head to look, he saw more than 100 horses galloping over, and the one in the front was dressed in a precious and dazzling purple, and he knew that it was Su Bai at a glance. Behind him were Yuan Hong and Wu Shi, and then behind were the knights of the Ghost King Army.
Su Bai came to the front, pulled the reins of the horse and stopped the war horse, turned over and got off the horse with a beautiful turnover, and smiled at Wang Fugui and other businessmen, "Let you wait for a long time", Li Jiaojiao hurriedly said, "What did the Hou Ye say, the slave family has just arrived", Gao Yuan also smiled and said, "That's it, the Hou Ye is always so polite, so that the villain feels a little embarrassed"
Huang Lei just laughed and didn't say a word. Su Bai laughed twice, so that they would not be embarrassed, and walked towards the Four Seas Chamber of Commerce in the first place, and the rest of the merchants naturally hurriedly followed.
There was a big happy word posted at the door of the Chamber of Commerce, Su Bai walked over and pushed the door, and the entire Four Seas Chamber of Commerce appeared in front of everyone's eyes for the first time!
Seeing that the floor of the Chamber of Commerce was all black marble floor, for this ground, Su Bai spent nearly five thousand taels of silver, and finally made the upper and lower three floors covered with marble of this color.
As soon as you enter the gate, you will see a big front desk in front of you, all made of marble, and behind you is a wall with four gilded characters! Four Seas Chamber of Commerce! Underneath is a line of small print that reads; 'All brothers in the four seas', followed by a pattern, this pattern is the emblem of the Four Seas Chamber of Commerce, which looks like a four-leaf clover, and each leaf has a small word written on it, from left to right are the four words of the Four Seas Chamber of Commerce.
On both sides of the front desk, there is a large space, and at a glance, you can only see a wall, and when you walk over, you will find that there are now a total of ten huge walls inside, which are written in cinnabar. Kannai-do, Nam-do, Hadong-do, Hehe-do, Shannan-do, Longyou-do, Huainan-do, Gangnam-do, Jiannan-do, Yeongnam-do! This is Datang's current Ten Paths! Walking into the wall, you will see that on each wall, there are also many small signs, and if you look closely, you can find that it is the name of each and every state, and if you look closely, you can see the city inside, as well as the price!
When the merchants saw these things, their eyes lit up and were terrifying! Didn't they join the Four Seas Chamber of Commerce because of this incident? Some frizzy businessmen now want to go through it, time is money! This sentence makes a lot of sense when it comes to businessmen!
However, Su Bai was right in front of him, even if they had this kind of thought, they didn't dare to act rashly.
In addition to the ten huge walls on the first floor, there were only a few staff left, Su Bai smiled at the more than twenty businessmen behind him, "This is the benefit I promised you, all the members who join my chamber of commerce, each of you can read the price for free!" ”
Su Bai pointed to the ten giant walls and said, "The information on this is updated every three days to ensure that the information on it is always up-to-date!" Then Su Bai pointed to the two young men who were smiling at the front desk and said, "They are the staff here, no matter what questions you have in the future, inquire about prices, or what needs you have, you can find them as soon as possible!" ”
The two young men smiled and saluted, "Welcome to the Four Seas Chamber of Commerce!" Then, behind each wall, five people came out, a total of fifty people, and whispered, "Welcome! ”
The businessmen looked at the scene in front of them and all praised it from the bottom of their hearts! Su Bai continued: "Our Chamber of Commerce adopts a membership system! There are only two ways to become a member, the first method is recommended by old members, and the second method is to meet the audit of our chamber of commerce! ”
Su Bai's eyes swept over the businessmen and then smiled, "All of you here today, it is the wisest decision for you to join our Four Seas Chamber of Commerce!" Su Bai smiled and said, "Only members can check our prices, and this is just one of the benefits of our Four Seas Chamber of Commerce!" ”
Su Bai clapped his hands, and the two young men at the front desk came to Su Bai with a small book, and handed it over with both hands respectfully, Su Bai took the small book, held it in front of him, turned his head to look at all the merchants, and made sure they could see the book in their hands and said, "This book, with all the information written on it, we will confirm your credit according to this information, and credit is gold!" This is definitely not an empty phrase! You can borrow different amounts of money from me by your own credit! The more creditworthiness people have, the more money they can borrow! ”
Su Bai stretched out his hand and pointed at Wang Fugui and said, "For example, Wang Fugui can borrow five thousand taels of gold from me!" As soon as this sentence came out, all the merchants in the room were blinded, what is it? Five thousand taels of gold! All of their net worth has been sold now, I'm afraid it's just this amount, and now they actually say that they can borrow it directly?
Li Jiaojiao smiled and said, "I don't know how this credit is judged?" Hou Ye is not afraid that this side has just lent out the money, and the person will run away? Su Bai chuckled and flipped through the small notebook in his hand to one of the pages, and then handed it to Li Jiaojiao casually.
Li Jiaojiao picked up the small notebook in confusion, and after just looking at it twice, her face became extremely ugly! When he returned the small book to Su Bai, his face was extremely ugly, and negative emotions such as fear, jealousy, and doubt appeared on his face. Emotional superficiality, which is a big taboo for a big businessman! This can also indirectly show how impactful the things Su Bai showed her before were.
The rest of the businessmen stared curiously at the small book in Su Bai's hand, wanting to know what Li Jiaojiao had just read, why did she look like a dead husband now, no, her husband was already dead!
Su Bai casually handed the small book in his hand to Huang Lei on the side, Huang Lei took it and looked at it twice, his face was also ugly, followed by Gao Yuan, everyone who has seen the book understands why the previous person had such an expression!
Because that book records all the recent things they have done, even when they went to the Qinglou, which girl they chose, and how long they stayed in the room have a detailed record! Who can not be scared after watching it?
No matter who it is, they don't like to put their own on the bright side, and they also understand it, why is Su Bai not afraid that they will not repay the money they borrowed, there is this kind of intelligence network, and they will not pay back the money borrowed? Hehe, maybe by the time you wake up the next day, your beard has already been shaved off! Do you dare not pay back?
The so-called three fires for new officials to take office, why? Because he needs deterrence, and with deterrence, his life will become easier, and people will seriously carry out your orders! Su Bai is actually doing the same thing now, he just wants to tell them that he has the strength of the Unparalleled Marquis!
Su Bai chuckled and said, "You don't have to worry, we are an alliance in a chamber of commerce, and I just used a small measure to confirm your credit, and now I naturally won't be spying on you."
Li Jiaojiao and the others forced two laughs, and the laughter was fake! Naturally, they won't believe Su Bai's words, don't monitor? Hehehehe, Su Bai's words are fake! All the businessmen who join the Chamber of Commerce, Su Bai will let Bai Yulou pay special attention to it, if there is any bad credit mixed in, or if it is fine, it will definitely be cleaned up as soon as possible!
Su Bai stretched out his finger and pointed to the door and said, "At that time, there will be a master at the door, only after the token and the information are matched, you can enter our Chamber of Commerce, you have absolute security in the Chamber of Commerce!" Even if you encounter any trouble in the rivers and lakes in the future, as long as you enter the Chamber of Commerce, I will guarantee that you will be safe! ”
Wang Fugui pretended to be curious and asked, "What token?" Su Bai clapped his hands again, and the two young men at the front desk came over with a small tray with golden tokens on it. After counting carefully, there were nineteen pieces in total, which was exactly one piece per person.
Su Bai casually picked up a piece and showed it to everyone: "This is our token!" The front is engraved with the monogram of our Four Seas Chamber of Commerce, and the back is engraved with the busts of all of you! After saying that, he showed them it, and they saw that there was indeed a four-leaf clover mark on it, and each leaf had a small character on it, and it was connected to the Four Seas Firm. The bust carved on the back is particularly vivid.
What Su Bai is holding in his hand is the bust of Wang Fugui, which looks so expressive! Small eyes and big belly, it's not bad.
Su Bai pointed to the bust above and said, "Every token will be registered in the Chamber of Commerce, and there are some simple information on it, and when the time comes, I need each of you to leave a code word, and the code word will also be recorded by the Chamber of Commerce. ”
Then Su Bai took the lead and walked towards the staircase, chuckling and saying, "Let's go, the first floor is like this, take you to the second floor for a turn." The merchants hurriedly followed, and the first floor was already very shocking to them, I don't know what kind of good things will be on the second floor?
Chang'an, East Palace
Li Chengqian looked in the direction of the county, the book in his hand slipped quietly and didn't know it, and he muttered, "It should start, right?" Father-in-law Qiu knew that this sentence was not asking himself, and honestly stood behind Li Chengqian motionless.
Li Chengqian's eyes were distracted, and he didn't know what he was thinking, he could only see his lips squirming slightly, but he couldn't hear a word when he got closer
