Everyone's worries are actually inevitable, you must know that this time to set up a chamber of commerce is different from the past, it is not a cooperation between ordinary businessmen but led by the warlord of the Broken Army, can the warlord's words be fully believed? No one knows the bottom in everyone's hearts. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ļ½ļ½ļ½Uļ½Eć ļ½ļ½ļ½ļ½
Seeing everyone's reaction, although Liu Fan was very calm on the surface, he was very anxious in his heart. He didn't waste so much effort to invite these people to eat, drink, and have fun. But joining the Chamber of Commerce is not easy for Liu Fa himself to force. Seeing that the situation is gradually stiffening. Liu Fan couldn't help but say directly: "This governor has limited time, but he doesn't have time to spend it like this with you." How to make a decision you hurry up and don't wait! After that, Liu Fan secretly glanced at Li Si and motioned for him to go out to end the deadlock.
Seeing Liu Fan's floating gaze, Li Si's scalp was numb, and for a moment, it was as if he had eaten a yellow lotus, and he only felt bitter all over his body. As Liu Fan's number one "horse boy", Li Si also knew that he couldn't escape this time. As soon as he gritted his teeth and stomped his feet, Li Si also let go, and directly said, "I agree to join the Chamber of Commerce, you overseers, he has thought so well for us. If we hesitate any longer, we won't know how to lift. Compared with the thousand handfuls of two small dollars we pay, what we will get in the future is inexhaustible and inexhaustible. If you don't catch this pie-in-the-sky thing, you won't have a chance to regret it in the future. No matter what, the old man decided to give it a go, even if he lost, he would only lose some silver taels. If you win, it will be the wealth of all generations! ā
Liu Fan secretly praised in his heart, clapped his hands and smiled, "What Elder Li said is right, as a successful businessman, you should not lack the spirit of adventure, otherwise you would not have earned such a big family business." The Governor knows what you are worried about, but ask yourselves, has the Governor ever felt sorry for you as long as you obeyed the law? Have the Breakers persecuted you? For those who are good and honest, we will never hesitate to give them the benefits they deserve. Why did the Li family become one of the largest merchants in Shandong in just two years? Needless to say, you know why. Now an opportunity to become the Li family is in front of you, and whether you can grasp it depends on how you choose! ā
Liu Fan has already said what should be said, and Liu Fan who shouldn't say it has also said a lot. Liu Fan did his best to promote this matter, if this kind of good thing is placed in the future society, there will be a large number of people vying to join. But at the moment, no one cares about it, and this huge contrast makes Liu Fan very uncomfortable. At the end of the day, they still don't trust themselves, they don't trust the Broken Army. If it had been replaced by the leader of the Donglin Party or something, I'm afraid they would have rushed up and sharpened their heads and drilled into it! At this time, Liu Fan deeply realized how important it was to have a good reputation in ancient times.
Fortunately, Liu Fan's wait did not last long, with Li Si's leadership, coupled with the huge temptation of interests, there are still some small businesses full of adventurous spirit who choose to join the Chamber of Commerce. One, two... Gradually, more and more people chose to believe in Liu Fan and the promise of the Broken Army.
Liu Fan was overjoyed when he saw this, and hurriedly ordered someone to register these people. has been busy for nearly half an hour, and Li Xiaohu and others have counted these names completely. Looking at the more than 100 names on this list, Liu Fan couldn't help but smile and said, "Everyone's choice is very smart, this governor can tell you with certainty, it won't be long before you will be glad for your choice!" ā
After speaking, Liu Fan paused, looked at a corner of the crowd, and said coldly: "As for those who refuse to join the Chamber of Commerce, this governor will not be reluctant!" But if you don't cherish the opportunity in front of you, don't blame Ben Tu for turning his face and being ruthless! From now on, those who have not participated in the Chamber of Commerce today will not be allowed to dock any ships in Jiaozhou Bay, let alone engage in any commercial activities in Jiaolai and Jiaolai! ā
"Huh!?" As soon as Liu Fan's words fell, everyone immediately let out a burst of exclamation. The dozen or so people in the corner who refused to join the chamber of commerce were even more mournful. Doesn't not being allowed to do business in Jiaolai mean that they will lose their way to live? The thought of such serious consequences for their choice made several people's bowels turn blue. What's more, he directly fell at Liu Fan's feet, and begged loudly: "Lord Commander, be gracious!" Let's join, can't we join the Chamber of Commerce? Please leave us a way to live! ā
Liu Fan glanced at these people coldly and said, "It's over, almost this governor has already given it to you." But you have taken the words of Ben Governor as a deaf ear, and now you know what is the use of regretting? The Governor has given you three days to move out of the two places, and after three days, if you are found to be still stranded and all your property is confiscated, how can I be deported? Come on, fork them out! ā
Liu Fan gave an order, and the wolf-like soldiers beside him immediately stepped forward to drag the dozen or so people up and leave. At this moment, the great power of Liu Fan's army was undoubtedly revealed.
Liu Fan's move to kill chickens and monkeys obviously had a very good effect. Looking at the happy appearance of the rest of the people, Liu Fan couldn't help but smile with satisfaction: "Okay, the eye-catching person has gone." Now let's get down to business! As a member of the upcoming Chamber of Commerce. During this trip to Japan, the Governor may allow you to participate in it, either by purchasing your own cargo or in partnership with others. All the fleets participating in this trip to Japan only need to pay a small escort fee to enjoy the protection of the Jiaozhou fleet. ā
After a pause, Liu Fan continued: "In addition, this governor also intends to set up an insurance institution in the Chamber of Commerce, which means that you can choose to pay a part of the security fund to add an insurance for yourself. If you encounter wind and waves at sea or pirate attacks after paying the security deposit, resulting in damage to the goods, once verified, the Chamber of Commerce will compensate you in full for the loss! ā
Everyone was surprised when they heard this, they didn't expect that there was such a good thing in this world? As one of the largest businessmen in Jiaozhou, Li Si couldn't help but ask eagerly, "Overseer, what kind of charter is this guarantee you are talking about?" How are fees charged? ā
Seeing everyone's reaction, Liu Fan couldn't help but feel happy in his heart, and explained with a smile, "The amount won't be too much, well, so let's do it, how about charging according to one-thousandth of the goods?" A shipload of 10,000 taels of goods only needs to pay 100 taels of silver, and you can buy a safe one for yourself! As long as you are not stupid enough to lose money, then you can make money with peace of mind! How's it like to take all the risks for you? This deal doesn't pay off, right? (To be continued.) )
