Chapter 381: Splitting the Chamber of Commerce II
In March, in the spring season, there is a strong sense of spring everywhere.
Flowers bloom, green grass counts, Jinling City is picturesque.
Koto Chamber of Commerce.
In the lobby, Chang Mi Zhu's body seemed a little straight, wearing a brocade robe, sitting on top of the head, staring at the two middle-aged men sitting in front of him.
There is a strong majesty on the two middle-aged men, the one on the left is a little fat, fat, with a round face, always smiling, a smiling Buddha,
The one on the right is black and thin, somewhat elegant.
The three of them looked at each other, always silent, and the atmosphere in the lobby suddenly became a little gloomy.
"Liao Kun, Li Nan, and you have really decided to leave our Jiangdong Chamber of Commerce?" After half a ring, Mi Zhu took the lead in opening his mouth, and his gaze fell on the two of them like knives along with his words.
The Jiangdong Chamber of Commerce, a behemoth that dominates the business community of Wu and is rich enough to rival the country, is finally facing disintegration.
"President Mi, I'm sorry!"
The middle-aged man on the left who was a little blessed was Liao Kun, a giant businessman in Jiaozhou, he stood up, looked at Mi Zhu with a smile on his face, kept apologizing, and then said: "It's not that a certain family wants to leave the Jiangdong Chamber of Commerce, but the business also has to change, different times have to make different choices, a certain family thinks that the Jiangdong Chamber of Commerce is not suitable for the Liao family's business now." ”
Liao Kun is a giant businessman, and the Liao family in Jiaozhou is one of the top merchant predators, dominating the grain in Jiaozhou.
Later, Jiangdong sent troops to settle Jiaozhou, and at this time, it was just in time for Sun Quan to establish the Jiangdong Chamber of Commerce and open the Jiangdong family. It belongs to the era of the commercial explosion.
Affected by this atmosphere, many merchants in Jiaozhou, which had just been pacified, were also affected a lot, and then some people with outstanding eyesight began to tentatively join the Jiangdong Chamber of Commerce.
The Liao family was the first Jiaozhou merchant to join the Jiangdong Chamber of Commerce. Later, with the support of the Jiangdong Chamber of Commerce, their business expanded throughout Jiangdong, and Liao Kun also brought many Jiaozhou merchants closer to the Jiangdong Chamber of Commerce, which became a giant with huge influence in the Chamber of Commerce.
When Sun Quan was still in the Jiangdong Chamber of Commerce, he was quite obedient, but later Sun Quan withdrew from the Chamber of Commerce. Mi Zhu took over, and his ambition could not be suppressed.
He aimed at the position of the president of the Chamber of Commerce, and fought with Mi Zhu several times, but no matter the means or the background, he was ruthlessly suppressed by Mi Zhu.
knows that he can't win Mi Zhu anymore. He didn't give up on himself, he found another shortcut, he was unwilling to be suppressed by Mi Zhu, and finally had a different heart.
Jiaozhou was originally defeated by Sun Ce with one hand and one foot, and Sun Ce's prestige was very high.
So he wanted to use Sun Ce as a backer and set up his own door.
However, he has always been afraid of Sun Quan, has been hesitant, and has only recently made up his mind. In addition, Sun Ce was recently defeated by Sun Quan, and the two hit it off.
Now he has negotiated with Zhou Yu, as long as the Jiangdong Chamber of Commerce can release people here. He immediately returned to Jiaozhou, and then formed the Jiaozhou Chamber of Commerce to fight against the Jiangdong Chamber of Commerce.
"Liao Fengyang, are you suitable for the Jiangdong Chamber of Commerce? Or do you want to climb another mountain? ”
Mi Zhu looked at Liao Kun, and the corners of his mouth outlined a sneer.
The departure of Liao Kun and Li Nan is not so simple, they are both giants in the Jiangdong Chamber of Commerce. Once he leaves, he will take away nearly half of the strength of the Jiangdong Chamber of Commerce.
It is not prudent to be cautious.
Today's Koto Chamber of Commerce has such a status. It's because of unity, they, the merchants, are united. In order to maintain the status of the merchants, once the power is dispersed, I am afraid that the status of the merchants will decline rapidly.
This is something he does not want to see.
However, Sun Quan is also right, the scale of the Jiangdong Chamber of Commerce is now too large and must be weakened, so he is also a little hesitant in his heart.
Is it put? Or is it blocked?
The Chamber of Commerce is an offensive and defensive alliance of businessmen, and the internal management is not very strict, but it is an organization after all, not to enter if you want to, and to retreat if you want to.
If he, the president, didn't let him go, the two of them wouldn't be able to leave so easily.
"President!"
Another black and thin middle-aged man stood up, he was the fastest-rising merchant after Liaodong penetrated Jiangdong, the head of the Li family, Li Nan.
His eyes flickered, and he looked at Mi Zhu with some apologies, his face was sincere, and he said: "A certain family doesn't want to deceive you, I'm sorry, the Jiangdong Chamber of Commerce is now based on a fixed foundation, and it is no longer in the interests of our Liaodong merchants, so as long as the president can let me leave safely, what are the requirements, please speak up!" ”
Li Nan is not very old, in his thirties, he is a business wizard, before the rise of commerce, he did not have much appearance, and then the business of Wu broke out, Li Nan burst out of his business ability and courage.
He emptied all the industries under the name of the Li family at one time, concentrated the funds, and then purchased a lot of retired warships from Jiangdong to form the Li family shipping and control a lot of routes from Liaodong to Jiangdong.
In just a few years, the Li family jumped and became the first merchant in Liaodong.
Speaking of which, he is also one of the founders of the Jiangdong Chamber of Commerce, one of the first to support Sun Quan's establishment of merchants, and now a giant of the Chamber of Commerce.
Although he wants to stand on his own, he doesn't want to fall out with the Jiangdong Chamber of Commerce, you must know that the ability of the Jiangdong Chamber of Commerce now, even if they rely on the big backers with a lot of influence behind them, they may not be able to resist the attack of the Jiangdong Chamber of Commerce.
The Jiangdong Chamber of Commerce controls the connections and financial resources of zhì, which is enough to be above business and drive them out.
"Huh."
Mi Zhu's eyes looked at the two of them, there was a low light, he smiled faintly, and said: "According to the rules of the Chamber of Commerce, joining the Jiangdong Chamber of Commerce is voluntary, and no one has ever been able to force you, but if you want to leave, you will have to pay the price." ”
"I wonder what we have to pay for?"
When Li Nan and Liao Kun looked at each other, they could see each other's slightly constricted pupils.
"However, the Jiangdong Chamber of Commerce wants you to wait for half of the family property!" Mi Zhu said lightly.
"What?"
Li Nan was startled, and his eyes were a little downcast.
"Impossible!"
When Liao Kun heard this, he jumped up directly, furious like thunder. stared at Mi Zhu deadly, and said coldly: "Mi Zizhong, your heart is too ruthless!" ”
"Is so-and-so ruthless?"
Mi Zhu smiled coldly, looking at Liao Kun and Li Nan, bright and sharp. said coldly: "Over the years, you have used the channels and connections provided by the Jiangdong Chamber of Commerce to make your business bigger, and then pat your ass and leave, do you think it is appropriate?" ”
"But half of the family property is too much!"
Li Nan's face was still a little ugly. If the Li family has no ordinary property, it will be no less than returning to the rhythm before liberation overnight.
"If you want to leave, you have to pay the price, if you let people go like this, where will the face of my Jiangdong Chamber of Commerce go!"
The corners of Mi Zhu's mouth outlined a cold arc. Then he said: "You have relied on the Jiangdong Chamber of Commerce over the years, you have to vomit as much as you eat, and it is not too much to ask for a certain amount, it is okay if you don't agree, you can leave here now, a certain family promises, within three months." You want to go bankrupt! ”
"Mi Zizhong?"
When Liao Kun heard this, the fat on his body kept trembling, and his eyes looked at Mi Zhu with a resentful light. said in a cold voice: "Do you really think that Donghou, who you rely on, will be able to eat us to the death?" ”
"To give or not to give?" Mi Zhu asked coldly.
"Hmph, so-and-so won't give it!"
Liao Kun smiled coldly and said resolutely, he thought that he already had a backer behind him. Even if Sun Quan made a move, he couldn't help him, so he ignored Mi Zhu's threat. Just brush your sleeves and go.
"Master Li, where are you?" Mi Zhu looked at Liao Kun's back in the distance. A sharp and sharp light flashed, and then he turned his head, looking at Li Nan with an expressionless face.
"President Mi, half is too much, one-third, this is already a certain bottom line!" Li Nan took a deep breath, gritted his teeth, and said decisively.
"Hahaha, the head of the Li family is refreshing!"
When Mi Zhu heard this, his eyes lit up slightly, and the businessman had to bargain, which was his nature.
Let them go, it's already a foregone conclusion, they are absent-minded, it's useless to stay, the price they pay is just for the sake of the face of the Jiangdong Chamber of Commerce.
Half of the family property, he is indeed a lion with a big mouth, but he is also prepared in his heart for them to bargain.
It's just that Liao Kun is too impatient, obviously he doesn't want to suffer a loss if he has a backer, and he minds giving him a hard lesson.
In fact, the bottom line in his heart is one-quarter and it is already about the same, you must know that these two people are giants of the Chamber of Commerce, and their net worth is definitely more than hundreds of millions of dollars, and a quarter is a huge amount.
He knew that Li Nan was so refreshing, in fact, it was not that he didn't want to talk about it, but that he always thought that he had a sense of guilt about the Jiangdong Chamber of Commerce, and without the Jiangdong Chamber of Commerce, there would be no rise of the Li family.
"President Mi, I hope we will still be friends in the future!" Li Nan breathed a sigh of relief, stood up, stretched out his hand, and said to Mi Zhu very gracefully.
"Of course, we are all businessmen, we can be friends, not enemies, one more friend is better than one more enemy, you give face to the Jiangdong Chamber of Commerce, the Jiangdong Chamber of Commerce will naturally leave you a face, when will the Liaodong Chamber of Commerce be established, a certain person must personally support the scene."
Mi Zhu said with a smile.
"Thank you!" Li Nan's eyes lit up slightly, although one-third of his net worth was a lot, but if he could buy a friendship from the Jiangdong Chamber of Commerce, it would be a good deal.
"By the way, Master Li, can you ask, who is it?"
Mi Zhu asked suddenly.
Liao Kun's backer is Sun Ce, that's for sure, that's why he has the courage to leave the Jiangdong Chamber of Commerce, and he can't even give face to the Jiangdong Chamber of Commerce, but Li Nan's backer, he has never had a clue.
Li dare to stand on his own, and there must be a backer behind him.
Nowadays, the status of the merchants of Wu has indeed improved a lot, but the officials and merchants, the officials and merchants, after all, the officials are in the front and the merchants are in the back, and the merchants must rely on the people of the court to survive.
The Jiangdong Chamber of Commerce did not have Sun Quan as a backer, so it was swallowed directly early in the morning, and Liao Kun would not have the courage if he hadn't relied on Sun Ce.
Therefore, Li Nan must have his own backer above the court before he dares to fly alone.
"Hehehe!"
Li Nanyan heard this, smiled slightly, and did not answer Mi Zhu's question, but when the two shook hands, his fingers wrote a word on Mi Zhu's palm, and then left.
King?
Mi Zhu's whole person was stunned, like thunder, and his whole body trembled.
There was only one king in the kingdom of Wu.
Sun Jian!
This backer is strong enough. (To be continued)
