Hearing Zhou Chong ask about the formation of the Haimeng, Xie Ke on the other side was also shocked, he waited for a few days in Shuangyu Port, although Xie Da asked about the family's decision several times, but out of confidentiality, he still kept it from Xie Da, in order to tell it in front of Zhou Chong, so that the other party had no time to prepare.

I saw Xie Ke think about it for a moment after listening to it, and then looked directly at Zhou Chong and said: "Gongzi Zhou, this time the clan sent me to discuss with you about the formation of the Haimeng, but the news that Uncle Xie sent back to the clan was not very detailed, so now Xie wants to know in detail what the Haimeng that Zhou Gongzi plans to form looks like?" ”

Hearing that Xie Ke didn't say what the Xie family thought about the Haimeng, but first asked himself about his plan to form the Haimeng, I saw that Zhou Chong also showed a faint smile, and at the same time, he was even more convinced that this Xie Ke was definitely a very difficult guy.

"Since Brother Xie asked about Zhou's plan for the Haimeng, then I will also be ugly." Zhou Zhong didn't flinch, anyway, he had already wanted to discuss the plan of the Haimeng with the people of the Xie family, "In my plan, the Haimeng is not just a union of our two families, but a joint organization of the entire Shuangyu Port and even all the smuggling chambers of commerce, after the establishment of the Haimeng, we will regulate the current smuggling industry, and formulate various rules related to smuggling, all those involved in smuggling must do things according to the rules of the Haimeng, if anyone dares to break the rules of the Haimeng, Then you must bear the wrath of the entire Maritime Alliance! ”

Hearing Zhou Chong's description of the Haimeng, Xie Ke couldn't help frowning, he used to think that the so-called Haimeng was actually similar to an ordinary guild, a joint organization composed of people in the industry. At most, some contradictions within the industry will be adjusted. But through the description of Zhou Zhong. Xie Ke found that his previous understanding was wrong. Haimeng is not only a smuggling guild, but also has its own armed forces, and even formulates industry rules, so it seems that Haimeng is actually equivalent to an independent kingdom that manages smuggling, and its power is far greater than its imagination.

At first, Xie Ke was still a little worried, thinking that the Haimeng was too lenient, and the possession of force might cause dissatisfaction in the imperial court. However, he soon realized that smuggling is a very special industry, and the entire industry is not subject to any laws, nor is it protected by any official force, so if you want the smuggling industry to develop healthily, there must be an agency that replaces the official management, and the Haimeng proposed by Zhou Zhong is precisely the substitute for the official management agency.

Thinking about this, I saw Xie Ke nodding lightly and said, "Zhou Gongzi really has a big plan, and he has your explanation of Haimeng. Xie also agreed, but after the establishment of the Haimeng, it is bound to need a person in charge. Zhou Gongzi, as the initiator of the Haimeng, is naturally the most suitable person to be the principal, but it is impossible to be the principal for a lifetime, so Xie believes that the position of the principal can be rotated and changed every few years, of course, the principal of this session naturally needs to be presided over by Zhou Gongzi himself! ”

Xie Ke's above words can be described as well-intentioned, first agreed with Zhou Chong's idea, and also offered to give up the first head of the Strait Alliance to Zhou Chong, but this head is not for life, but needs to be rotated, but in the entire Shuangyu Port, I am afraid that only the Xie family can compete with Zhou Zhong for the position of the principal.

Zhou Zhong originally proposed the formation of the Haimeng, he wanted to unify the entire smuggling industry, so the position of the head of the Haimeng can only be his, and he is naturally unwilling to give it to others, so he sneered at Xie Ke's words and said: "Brother Xie Shi is really a good idea, the formation of the Haimeng is a hard work, and when Zhou, the first principal, sets up the Haimeng, and then rotates, but he wants Zhou to give up the position of the principal to others, do you think I will do that kind of thankless thing?" ”

Hearing Zhou Chong's words to explain his plan, Xie Ke said with the slightest change in his face: "Zhou Gongzi's words are wrong, Haimeng is formed by gathering the power of the Chamber of Commerce, although you were the first to put it forward, but Haimeng is not your Zhou family's private thing, even if Zhou Gongzi has the ability to control Haimeng for a lifetime, but when you are old and weak, do you still want to pass Haimeng to your son, I'm afraid that even if you have this heart, the merchants within Haimeng may not agree, so Xie Mou's above words are actually planning for Zhou Gongzi!" ”

At this time, Zhou Zhong couldn't help but be silent after hearing this, he didn't think so far before, but after Xie Ke's reminder, he found that he was indeed a little short-sighted, he only thought about the scenery after controlling the Haimeng, but he didn't think about how the Haimeng should be passed on? And indeed, as Xie Ke said, Haimeng is not his private property and cannot be passed down from generation to generation, so Haimeng does need a model of inheritance, and what Xie Ke said about rotation every few years is indeed very reasonable.

Although Zhou Chongxiang thought so, his face did not show it at all, but he said to Xie Ke with a sneer: "Brother Xie, if Zhou wants to treat Haimeng as my private property, and then pass it on from generation to generation, I don't know what Brother Xie will do?" ”

For Zhou Chong's criticism, I saw Xie Ke smile indifferently: "First of all, Xie doesn't believe that Zhou Gongzi will make that kind of unwise move, but if it is assumed that Zhou Gongzi really wants to treat the Haimeng as his personal property, then our Xie family has no choice but not to participate in the Haimeng, and then integrate the strength of the Xie Family Chamber of Commerce and the Hongjia Chamber of Commerce, learn the cooperative smuggling model of the Nanyang Chamber of Commerce, and then everyone will compete on the smuggling road!" ”

Xie Ke's words were soft and hard, first slapped Zhou Chong's ass, and then threatened Zhou Chong, if he did not agree with his proposal to rotate the principal, then everyone broke up, the Xie family and the Hong family Chamber of Commerce not only will not participate in the Haimeng, but also start a new stove, and also carry out cooperation and smuggling, when the time comes for their two big chambers of commerce to unite, the momentum is no worse than the current Nanyang Chamber of Commerce, and then the competition between the two parties will not benefit anyone.

Zhou Chong naturally heard the threat in Xie Ke's words, but at this time, he suddenly smiled and said: "Brother Xie is really worthy of being a thousand miles of the Xie family, and he is much more thoughtful than the younger brother in considering things, and Zhou also agrees very much with the rotation of the principal, but I don't know how Brother Xie thinks the principal should be rotated, and the period of the principal's principal should be set at a few years?" ”

Seeing that Zhou Zhong finally agreed to rotate the principal, this made Xie Ke happy, and hurriedly said: "For the rotation of the principal, Xie thought of a very fair way, since the Haimeng is an organization that gathers all the smuggling chambers of commerce, then the principals of the Haimeng should be jointly elected by these chambers of commerce, of course, it is impossible for all chambers of commerce to have the qualifications to elect the principal, only when the chamber of commerce reaches a certain scale of chambers of commerce can be qualified to be elected, and this qualification can be slowly formulated in the future." ”

After talking about the rotation of the principal, Xie Ke continued: "As for the term of office of the principal, Xie feels that it is not easy to be too short, so Xie feels that a new director of the Strait League will be elected every five years for a period of five years, and at the same time, in order to ensure the fairness of the director of the Strait League, a person cannot be re-elected as the director of the Strait League!" ”

When Zhou Chong heard that the five-year period was the first term, he felt pretty good about Xie Ke, but when he heard that the head of the Haimeng could not be re-elected, that is to say, after Zhou Zhong was the director of the first session, he would lose control of the Haimeng in the future and let others take advantage of it.

Thinking of this, Zhou Chong couldn't help but snort coldly and said: "I didn't expect that Brother Xie Shi also had something to think about, and Zhou had no objection to letting the chamber of commerce within the Haimeng elect the principal, but I felt that the term of office of each director was too short, and five years was not enough time for the director at that time to perform, so Zhou thought that this term could be extended!" ”

"Oh, I wonder if Gongzi Zhou is going to extend this term of office to a few years?" Xie Ke also knew that it was impossible for Zhou Chong to agree to a five-year term without being re-elected, so he had long waited for Zhou Chong to bargain.

"Ha Lu Ha ~ " I saw Zhou Chong suddenly raise his head and smile, and after a long while, he stopped and said to Xie Ke: "Brother Xie Shi is really calculating, but Zhou thinks that it is not a matter of lengthening the term of office, but after the term of office of each director expires, he is also eligible to participate in the election of the next director, as long as he does well during his term, then he will have the opportunity to be re-elected, which will also motivate the director to do more beneficial things for the Haimeng during his term of office, not just for his own benefit with the help of his authority!" ”

Zhou Zhong not only did not follow Xie Ke's words, but also put forward a request for re-election, and also talked about the benefits of re-election, which can be said to be very convincing.

Xie Ke didn't expect Zhou Chong to be fooled at all, which made him startled at first, and then laughed a few times to hide his embarrassment, but he still didn't give up and said: "Zhou Gongzi, re-election seems to be able to motivate the principal to do things for the Haimeng, but it also has disadvantages, after all, if the principal uses the power in his hands to win over people within the Haimeng, so as to get the opportunity to be re-elected, then it is likely to dominate the Haimeng in the future, and even have a devastating blow to the Haimeng." ”

Regarding Xie Ke's words, Zhou Chong didn't take them as a deaf ear at all, and saw him smile lightly and said: "Brother Xie Shi's opinion is very good, I will consider it in the future, but for the sake of the development of Haimeng, I still think that the position of the person in charge can be re-elected." ”

Seeing that Zhou Chong still insisted on being re-elected, this made Xie Ke also secretly angry in his heart, no matter how steady he was, he was also a young man with strong blood, and it was impossible to be happy and angry, at this time, I saw that his face was already a little angry, and he wanted to argue with Zhou Da loudly.

But at this moment, Xie Da, who had been slightly closing his eyes, finally smiled slightly, and he knew that it was time for him to appear. (To be continued......)
