Chapter 317: Riding the Sea and Treading the Waves

Yan Shun's words were immediately unanimously agreed by all the merchants, you know, this Qingyang Port was personally prepared by Yan Shun, a commercial bank, and it should have been able to play a leading role and control the right to speak.

And Yan Shun is now taking the initiative to propose to form a chamber of commerce, which is to give up power.

Such a move, regardless of the follow-up and what the purpose is, is extremely beneficial to all merchants anyway.

Naturally, a hundred of them agreed.

"Okay, let's go back to Hong Kong now to discuss the choice of the president of the Chamber of Commerce!" Yan Shun immediately rose from Shanruliu, looked at Dengzhou Taishou again, and asked him, "I don't know what the Mansion wants?" ”

Dengzhou Taishou doesn't want to provoke more things, but the bottom line still has to be revealed: "No matter what you do, anyway, first, you are not allowed to make trouble in Qingyang Port!" ”

"Naturally, we are all businessmen, and we are only for money! It's too late for us to calm things down, and there's going to be trouble somewhere. Yan Shun took the lead in making a statement on behalf of the merchants.

The merchants also nodded yes.

This made Dengzhou Taishou feel a little relieved, so he continued to put forward the next article: "Well, that's good, there is another one, that is, no matter who is the president of the Chamber of Commerce, the monthly tax must be paid on time without any delay." ”

"Of course not, we are all righteous businessmen, and we are dedicated to the court, how could we do such a thing." Yan Shun said without hesitation.

"Yes, yes, yes, we won't, we won't!"

"I'm sure I'll pay it on time!"

"Yes, that's the bottom line!"

The other merchants joined in.

Dengzhou Taishou nodded with satisfaction, but Delong Wangshu still wanted to reap some benefits, so he continued: "Well, although I believe in you very much, but if I completely leave it alone, what if there is a mess?" ”

Yan Shun laughed loudly: "My Fuzun, what is the purpose of establishing the Chamber of Commerce now, not to calm the current chaos, how can we make trouble, otherwise, we don't care, you quickly send someone to bring all those scoundrels to justice!" We can't wait! ”

This immediately put Dengzhou Taishou on the wall, if this guy has such a responsibility, then there will be no performance just now, as soon as he heard that Yan Shun was going to pick a son and stop playing, Dengzhou Taishou immediately became nervous.

You must know that this is not only about how much personal benefits can be earned from Qingyang Port, but also Chong Yanshun can provide thousands of war horses a year, this is the master, and he must be served well.

So, Dengzhou Taishou immediately agreed with a smile: "Okay, since it is the Yan shopkeeper, I have said so, then I will promise you that Qingyang Port can hire locals to patrol and manage in Qingyang Port, and the management power is in the hands of the president of the Chamber of Commerce, but no matter how you elect it, this first president of the Chamber of Commerce must be the Yan shopkeeper." Otherwise, I wouldn't have said yes! ”

As soon as these words came out, other businesses were in different moods, some supported in their hearts, some were very reluctant, and some remained neutral.

However, the thought that the term of office of the first president is only one month, and that he can be impeached at any time, many unwilling businesses simply agree.

However, someone still said: "That's okay, but your arrangement can only be this time, and the president or something in the future will all be elected by our Chamber of Commerce!" ”

"It's okay!" Dengzhou Taishou agreed with a smile, these merchants are all powerful and powerful, he is not willing to offend casually, the reason why he decided to let Yan Shun be the first president is actually to show favor to Yan Shun, and secondly, it is not without the intention of sowing discord.

Although he is willing to worry a little, he also does not want to see a semi-independent force, now it is an expedient measure, in the long run, it is natural to control this port in his hands.

However, all of this has to be seen again, he is not hereditary in the position of the Taishou of Dengzhou, and he may have to change his official position at any time, in this case, why not take advantage of this position to reap some more personal benefits?

There is no need to compromise personal interests for the sake of so-called long-term stability.

Dengzhou Taishou's thoughts are basically known to everyone.

The people who can do business here are all people with lively minds, and they don't know the thoughts of this Dengzhou Taishou, but everyone doesn't break it.

Anyway, let's talk about it with Yan Shun for a while, after all, the reason why this Qingyang Port can rise is also because Yan Shun can get horses, and it is also a war horse, which they will not forget.

If Yan Shun can't get a horse, then he can replace him at any time, or if Qingyang Port develops to the point where there is no need for war horses to highlight his status, then he can completely sweep Yan Shun aside.

However, in the current situation, everyone still has to work together.

Yan Shun also knew the thoughts of these merchants, but he didn't care at all, the reason why he wanted to create a port here was actually just to secretly fund the Great Song Dynasty, and also to give the soldiers who were conscripted a stable rear, as well as a place to sell the spoils of war and settle their families.

It doesn't matter who comes in and what kind of mind it is.

Because, Yan Shun firmly believes that under the planning of Wuda, no one can bargain.

All of a sudden, everyone had their own plans and ideas, but on the surface they basically had the same opinion.

Leaving the Dengzhou Mansion, Yan Shun returned to Qingyang Port with many merchants.

"Since it is the meaning of the mansion, then I will temporarily serve as the president of the chamber of commerce of this first association, what will happen in the future, or everyone will elect together!" Yan Shun said with a smile, and then explained the methods of a series of elections, as well as the number of votes and principles occupied by each family.

These are all formulated by Wuhan University, and the fairness and scientificity that transcend the times naturally make all the businesses unable to find any faults, so they all agree.

Although it is inevitable that some people will oppose it for the sake of opposition, and deliberately provoke it in order to make their voices heard, it is harmless.

Soon, the regulations on the establishment and management of the Qingyang Port Chamber of Commerce were passed.

Soon, the Qingyang Port Chamber of Commerce issued the first order, that is, to recruit patrols to manage Qingyang Port, of course, these patrols can only have the weapons and equipment of the village archers, and the number is not allowed to exceed 100 people.

But soon, this team was formed, saying that it was recruiting local people, but in fact, the backbone of it was all new people who had come in batches to join Zhongyizhuang.

With these backbones, no matter who the president of the Chamber of Commerce is, this team is actually in the hands of Wuhan University.

As long as it controls the only violent organ in Qingyang Port, it doesn't matter what happens to the president of the Chamber of Commerce.

This can be regarded as Wuhan University just in case.

The other merchants didn't see this, although they also wanted to put people in, but after all, they lost the opportunity, and Yan Shun's initial requirement was that they had to hire locals.

Even if those businesses have some people, they have already exposed their relationships, and it is not easy to insert them as homeless people.

And the people arranged by Wuda are all the faces of Zhongyizhuang, and they have come in batches a long time ago, and no one doubts that they are homeless people.

After all, the vast majority are still predominantly locals.

The recruitment of locals, which was mainly locals, suddenly made Dengzhou a lot more excited, you know, the treatment of this patrol team is quite high, which makes many Dengzhou people envious.

Even after the recruitment was full, he repeatedly asked to join.

Yan Shun didn't say much, but just took out the order of the Taishou of Dengzhou and pushed all the pressure out.

Now, many people suddenly went to Dengzhou Taishou to make trouble.

It made Qingyang Port a lot more peaceful.

With this patrol, all the ruffians were expelled from Qingyang Port, and the order of the entire Qingyang Port was once again in order.

Soon, Qingyang Port prospered, and many goods from the north went south, and goods from the south went north here, becoming an important hub, after all, it was a very convenient location.

In the past, no one came to develop, but now that there are people to develop, it will suddenly flourish.

Despite its short and poorly equipped infrastructure, the amount of cargo it handles is staggering.

A large amount of money came and went under the nose of Yan Shun, the first president, which also shocked him.

However, he knew that this was just a disguise, and the most important thing was to go north from here to cross the sea, and making money was not in his consideration at all, so Yan Shun not only acted impartially, but also took the initiative to take out a lot of silver to repair all kinds of public facilities in the new port, which won a burst of praise from top to bottom.

In this way, another half a month has passed, and Wuda has finally officially come to this Qingyang Port, waiting to choose the right time to go north and cross the sea to attack.

It was also a coincidence that at the same time as the arrival of Wuhan University, an uninvited guest also came to Qingyang Port.

This man was a big man, with a pale yellow complexion, a beard, a figure of more than eight feet, a hard bow, an inferior horse, a long spear, and a tiger's eye bamboo steel whip hanging on his wrist.

This is none other than that sick lieutenant Chi Sun Li!

This sick lieutenant Chi Sun Li is very strong in martial arts, but he ranks very low among the one hundred and eight generals.

How low?

As the core figure of the Dengzhou faction, the boss, and Sun Li, who used to be under the jurisdiction of Dengzhou's soldiers and horses, didn't even enter the thirty-six Tiangang, but only ranked third among the seventy-two earth-shatterers, ranking thirty-ninth overall.

With Sun Li's martial arts, it is really strange to be wronged in the middle of the earth.

You must know that when the Water Margin was ranked, as long as they had been officials, they were all ranked in the forefront, but this Sun Li obviously had a very high status, but he was far inferior to the ranking.

Even the Orion Xie Zhen and Xie Bao brothers, who went up the mountain with Sun Li, were lined up in the thirty-six Tiangang, but Sun Li, who was under the jurisdiction of the dignified soldiers and horses, stayed far away in the seventy-two earths.

There's a reason for that, of course.

You must know that although this Liangshan hero is like-minded, the internal relationship is also quite delicate, and there are faint factions.

Sun Li is the boss of one of the important forces, and there are also a large number of people behind him: Sun Xin, Gu Sister-in-law, Le He, Xie Zhen, Xie Bao, Zou Yuan, Zou Run. This vote is from Dengzhou, except for Zou Yuan and Zou Run's uncle and nephew, who are robbers, the other six are all relatives.

This faction is not simple. In terms of ability, Sun Zili can definitely rank among the first-class generals;

In terms of prestige, Sun Li is also a general;

In terms of numbers, this small hill is one of the best, and probably only Song Jiang's descendants, Ma Jiangzhou, can match it.

It is precisely because of this that Song Jiang deliberately lowered Sun Li's ranking to make it easier to manage.

Therefore, not only Sun Li, but even the entire Dengzhou faction was also suppressed by Song Jiang, and it was actually very bad to mix in Liangshan.

However, Wu Da's mind is not comparable to that Hei Saburo, you know, Wu Da is a systematic person, and he doesn't care how strong his subordinates will be, because Wu Da will only be stronger than anyone else.

Therefore, I wish my subordinates were as strong as possible, and they couldn't compare to him anyway.

At the beginning, in fact, Wuda also wanted to accept this Dengzhou faction into Zhongyizhuang, but this Dengzhou faction is different, everyone else went to the beam because of desperation or something, but the Dengzhou faction's ascent to the mountain can actually not happen at all.

Therefore, it doesn't matter if Wu Dapo is pooping.

There's no need to design another one.

But now that this sick lieutenant is late, of course it is impossible for Wuda to let him go.

As a middle-level official in Dengzhou and a military general, this sick lieutenant Chi Sunli is an active character, and he has long heard that Qingyang Port is prosperous, and his heart is also itchy.

This one entered Qingyang Port, and sure enough, he saw prosperity everywhere, which was very different from the past, and his heart was also happy.

Riding a horse and walking, I came to the restaurant where Wuhan University was located.

Suddenly, he dismounted and entered the restaurant, and threw the prey he had shot to the shopkeeper: "Little Er, cook well, cook it for me, and what good wine and good food can be served!" ”

As he spoke, he photographed a silver ingot, looking like he was not bad for money.

This is actually a stronghold of Zhongyizhuang arranged by Wuda, and now he is busy receiving Wuda, and he is not going to receive this Sun Li, but Wuda smiled and nodded.

The shopkeeper naturally agreed, and served with good wine and food.

Sun Li picked a good position to sit down, ate meat, drank in a big bowl, and looked at everything prosperous outside, but he felt uncomfortable.

"I didn't expect that this place where birds don't can be so prosperous now, it's really a capable person!" Sun Li said with emotion.

When Wu Da heard this, he also felt that Sun Li was very straightforward and interesting, so he stood up, walked to Sun Li's table and said, "It's always uncomfortable to drink alone, why don't you drink a few bowls together?" ”

Sun Li raised his eyes and looked at Wuda, and when he saw that he was also a good man, he was also happy in his heart, so he heartily agreed: "That's good, but it's not okay to drink less!" ”

"That's nature, it's going to be fun!" Wu Da smiled, okay, this Dengzhou faction is also going to be in his bag.
