Chapter 376: The Jiangdong Chamber of Commerce

In the depths of winter, the wind is bitterly cold.

Jinling City today has a goose feather snow that has been rare for decades, and above the sky, layers of snowflakes are flying all over the sky.

A white patch, picturesque.

The streets and alleys in the city, the roofs and pavements are piled up with layers of snow, which makes Jinling City look very beautiful.

This cold wind and heavy snow did not make this magnificent capital of Wu become bleak, but made it more noisy and lively.

The South is not the same as the North.

It seems that the eyes of Liaodong people do not like snow, snow represents the cold, in this era, because of the cold of winter, how many Liaodong people will freeze to death.

That's why people in the north don't like winter.

But snow, which is very rare in the eyes of southerners, represents beauty and purity.

A heavy snow of this scale, in the south, in Jinling, I am afraid that it is rare in a hundred years, and now it is close to the New Year's season, welcoming the new and going to the old, every household is preparing for the New Year, and all the children are happily having snowball fights.

……

Mi family mansion.

"Prince, if there is something you can send someone to paging and paging, why bother you to come in person." For Sun Quan, who only appeared in the mansion with a few people early in the morning, Mi Zhu's heart was a little panicked.

"Zizhong, there is something special for a certain family to find you today!"

Sun Quan wore a tiger skin jacket, strode in, and then gently patted the splashed snowflakes on his body, and said indifferently: "And I just want to come out for a walk and see this beautiful snow scene that is rare in a hundred years, so I will come in and have a look, but your house is good." Atmospheric but not vulgar! ”

Mi family, from Xuzhou, has a strong foundation, coupled with Mi Zhu's business talent, and now there is a stage of Jiangdong Chamber of Commerce. It has become the No. 1 merchant in Wu country.

Sun Quan can't do it, but the Mi family can do it.

The Mi family's mansion is in the west of the city, close to the Qinhuai River, the scale is larger than the Donghou Mansion, and the layout is exquisite, with small bridges and flowing water. The rockery pavilion is very elegant, not like a merchant's house, but there is a kind of family heritage.

The layout of a room is inextricably linked to the owner's taste, and Mi Zhu's taste is good. Although this person is just a merchant, he is full of poetry and books, has a humble demeanor, and does things gracefully and generously.

"Huh!"

When Mi Zhu heard Sun Quan's words, he didn't hide it, smiled slightly, but was a little proud, and said: "This big mansion can cost a lot of gold cakes of the Mi family. A certain plan to use this place as the ancestral home of the Mi family from generation to generation, naturally it is necessary to arrange it a little more finely. ”

"A person's life is to eat, live, clothe, and travel, if he has the ability. I should have made a better place to live. ”

Sun Quan didn't pay too much attention to this aspect, but he still reminded Mi Zhu slightly: "But there are some aspects that should be restricted." ”

"Junhou, did you do something wrong?" Mi Zhu was slightly panicked in his heart, and said hurriedly.

"You're not wrong, it's just that the tree is making a big move. Now it can affect the economy of the entire Wu country, and the Jiangdong Chamber of Commerce, which is rich enough to rival the country, is too famous. Instead, it's causing trouble! ”

Sun Quan sighed and said.

"Trouble?"

Mi Zhu heard this. His complexion changed slightly, his pupils contracted suddenly, and he hurriedly asked, "Prince, the current Chamber of Commerce has always acted in accordance with the laws of the imperial court, what is the trouble?" ”

"If there is too much money, some people will be red-eyed, and now above the court, there are financial problems, when the crusade against the Lu State, the casualties of the soldiers are huge, and a huge amount of pension is released, so the Jiangdong Chamber of Commerce is eyed!"

Sun Quan said it calmly, he believed that Mi Zhu's cleverness already knew what it was all about?

"Is this what the king meant?"

Sun Quan said in such detail, Mi Zhu naturally understood, he was a little dumbfounded, and it took him a long time to come back to his senses, and then he took a deep breath, his face was still a little ugly, and he asked softly: "Is it a forced levy?" Or ......"

"They mean just borrow!"

Sun Quan pursed his lips, and then said: "The Jiangdong Chamber of Commerce has not touched the laws of the Wu Kingdom, if they forcibly levy it, it will make the court fall into the handle, whether it is the court or the king, they all want to save face." ”

"Borrow?" Mi Zhu took a breath of relief.

"Don't think it's so simple, this loan may not be exchanged, if the court insists on owing you money, do you dare to ask the court for debt!" Sun Quan reminded the way.

"But since the court has spoken, that is, the king has spoken, we can't refuse, how big is this number?" Mi Zhu thought about it, gritted his teeth, crossed his eyes with a touch of determination, and asked.

"Zizhong, are you really planning to lend it to the court?"

When Sun Quan heard this, he was a little speechless, and said in a cold voice: "You have to think clearly, there is a first time, there is a second time, and there is a second time, if it goes on for a long time, do you plan to use the Jiangdong Chamber of Commerce as an ATM for the court?" ”

"Junhou, a certain naturally knows the powerful relationship in this, but since the king has made up his mind, can our chamber of commerce still obey?"

When Mi Zhu heard this, his face was like ashes, a little pale, and finally said helplessly: "As long as it doesn't hurt the operation of the Jiangdong Chamber of Commerce, it will be a disaster to break the fortune and prevent the disaster!" ”

"I'm afraid that your wealth is all ruined, and this disaster may not be able to stop it!" Sun Quan shook his head, and there was a deep cold glint in his eyes.

"But Junhou, if we don't borrow it, I'm afraid not only the Jiangdong Chamber of Commerce will suffer, but even you will be implicated!"

When Mi Zhu heard Sun Quan's words, he was shocked in his heart and hurriedly asked.

You must know that when the court speaks, it is Sun Jian who speaks, and they do have reason to refuse, but Sun Jian, who is angry, will not gain more than he gains, and even Sun Quan may be implicated because of this, which he does not want to see.

"Zizhong, I have come up with a solution to this matter, and the Jiangdong Chamber of Commerce can avoid this catastrophe, but the Jiangdong Chamber of Commerce must cooperate!"

Sun Quan squinted and said.

This is his purpose, what he said before is just foreshadowing, scaring Mi Zhu, after all, he has let go of the Jiangdong Chamber of Commerce now. Influential, but not absolute.

If you want to make things happen, you have to use some means.

"The prince said it clearly!"

When Mi Zhu heard this, his eyes lit up slightly, and there was a light of joy.

"This is my plan. You start by using your own professional business vision to see if it is feasible? Sun Quan handed a file that was made overnight to Mi Zhu.

"This means of borrowing money...... It's so straightforward! ”

Mi Zhu couldn't wait to spread it out, and when he saw it, his pupils contracted a little involuntarily, and he gasped for air. said: "The action is so big, will the court agree?" Will it bring a negative reputation to the court? ”

"You don't have to worry about this matter, I want to ask you something, can it work?"

"You can give it a try!" Mi Zhu thought for a long time before answering.

Sun Quan saw that Mi Zhu was not very confident. A little irritable, he stood up, kept pacing, and then asked: "Zizhong, how are the people of Wu doing now, do they have some spare money in their hands?" ”

This question is difficult to answer, the people of the six counties of Jiangdong are indeed relatively wealthy. However, the people of Jiaozhou, Liaodong, are basically in a state of food and clothing now, barely able to fill their stomachs. I'm afraid that ordinary people really don't have any spare money in their hands? ”

Mi Zhu thought about it and replied cautiously.

"So in your cognition, can the people have confidence in the court of Wu State?"

Sun Quan continued to ask.

Only with confidence can the plan work, and now he has no time to do a survey of people's hearts, so he can only find some answers from Mi Zhu.

"This can answer Junhou from the perspective of a merchant!"

Mi Zhu groaned for a while. His eyes flickered for a moment, and he said, "Although the establishment of the Wu State is not long. It would be a bit too much to say that everyone is in their hearts. But if it is only the merchants of Wu State, the situation is different, now the commercial development of Wu State is very good, and the status of merchants is constantly improving, so the merchants of the land are developing rapidly, no one will hope that the Wu State regime will have problems, just hope that it can get better and better, after all, there are eggs under the nest, as long as the Wu State is better, we will be better. ”

"Okay, just have your words!"

When Sun Quan heard this, he nodded with satisfaction and said: "At this time, we will do it according to this plan, and the next things must be set an example by the Jiangdong Chamber of Commerce, and only with your cooperation can things go smoothly." ”

"No problem!"

Mi Zhu nodded, but he thought of some troublesome things, and soon his face became a little gloomy, and he looked at Sun Quan hesitantly, he had something to say but didn't know how to say it.

"Zizhong, if you have a problem, just say it!" Sun Quan's eyes moved slightly, looking at Mi Zhu so much, obviously having something to say.

"Junhou, there may be a little trouble from the Jiangdong Chamber of Commerce!" Mi Zhu groaned for a while, but still spoke.

"What's the trouble?"

When Sun Quan heard this, he was a little stunned in his heart, at this time, the Jiangdong Chamber of Commerce was a planned situation, and there must be no problems.

"Junhou, as the Jiangdong Chamber of Commerce grows bigger and bigger, there are naturally more and more merchants under its jurisdiction, and merchants from all over the country are proud of the Jiangdong Chamber of Commerce that they have joined, and we are getting bigger and bigger, and naturally there are some ambitious people!"

The Tao of Mi Zhu's analysis.

In this world, where there are people, there is struggle, and the Jiangdong Chamber of Commerce is not a peaceful world, because of regional variations, there is still infighting.

"Ambitionists? Could it be that you still can't control the overall situation of the Jiangdong Chamber of Commerce! Hearing this, Sun Quan frowned and asked.

If a character like Mi Zhu can't control the Chamber of Commerce, it will obviously be a big problem.

"Indeed!"

Hearing this, Mi Zhu nodded with a little shame on his face, and said softly: "Now in the Chamber of Commerce, some people want to split, led by merchants in Jiaozhou and Guangzhou, and they have begun to have the idea of breaking away from the Chamber of Commerce and establishing their own portals, and the merchants in Liaodong also have the idea of establishing their own portals, so now there is some chaos in the Jiangdong Chamber of Commerce, and they are a little unbearable." ”

"Tell me, what's going on?"

When Sun Quan heard this, he was originally a little annoyed in his heart, but after thinking about it deeply, he felt that this was not necessarily a bad thing.

This time, the court found the Jiangdong Chamber of Commerce, the most important of which is to make a big move, Wu Guo is only a Jiangdong Chamber of Commerce, the Jiangdong Chamber of Commerce comes to monopolize the economy, and if you don't look for the Jiangdong Chamber of Commerce if you lack money, who are you looking for?

"Junhou, led by the Liao family, the largest merchant in Jiaozhou, is already planning to withdraw from the Chamber of Commerce and set up their own door, and they seem to be leaning on Jianghou."

Mi Zhu said softly: "If he really relies on Jiang Hou and wants to set up his own door and set up another chamber of commerce centered on Jiaozhou and Guangzhou, it may be a lot of forces within our chamber of commerce." ”

"Leaned on Jiang Hou?"

Sun Quan squinted, and suddenly understood what this was about: "These people are smart enough, then Jiang Hou will come to suppress me, and then I can set up my own door." ”

The Jiangdong Chamber of Commerce's force is getting stronger and stronger, and after all, it has entered Sun Ce's eyes, this is a special force that Sun Quan has condensed single-handedly, and they can't do it if they want to participate.

However, Jiaozhou was originally beaten down by Sun Ce, and in Jiaozhou, he had a strong control over it, encouraging the merchants of Jiaozhou, the Jiangdong Chamber of Commerce that broke away, and then set up his own door, which was equivalent to taking part of the power of the Chamber of Commerce into his arms.

"Zizhong, do you know what a tree is called?" Sun Quan thought for a while, and suddenly asked rhetorically.

"Tree big wind?"

Mi Zhu was slightly stunned, and some didn't understand why Sun Quan asked this.

"Sometimes taking a step back isn't necessarily a bad thing."

Sun Quan smiled slightly, looked at Mi Zhu sincerely, and said: "The Jiangdong Chamber of Commerce has now become a giant that dominates the economy of Wu State, and has naturally become the target of today's court, when your influence is getting stronger and stronger, it will eventually become the jealousy of the imperial court, if another chamber of commerce appears at this time and splits the power, it will be a good thing for you." ”

"What the prince wants, let them go!"

Mi Zhu gritted his teeth, his eyes lit up, and he said softly.

"The Chamber of Commerce is yours, I have chosen to quit, now the scale of the Jiangdong Chamber of Commerce is large, there are many people, and the heart is ambitious, it is normal for someone to want to split up, just want to go with him, or fight with them, it depends on what you mean as the president!"

Sun Quan didn't give him a clear answer, and directly picked up the file and left Mifu.

"Let them go, or ...... Dead? ”

Looking at Sun Quan's back, Mi Zhu's eyes moved and he muttered, his mood a little fluctuating. (To be continued)
