Chapter 14, and the state chamber of commerce in Hebei

When Chen Xi entered the Lu Mansion, his heart was still a little agitated.

You must know that this is the first time that Wen Hou took the initiative to summon him, although he didn't know what he was looking for for something, but for Chen Xi, who had practiced martial arts since he was a child and regarded Lu Bu, a flying general who had been famous in Bingzhou for a long time, as an idol, this kind of opportunity was worth his stinky fart.

Following the guards who summoned him all the way into the gate of the Lu Mansion, Chen Xi glanced at it, and noticed that there was a group of people beside him who happened to pass by, it should be the person Wen Hou had just met.

There were only five people in this line, and the two guards of the Lu Mansion who walked in the front were the two guards of the Lu Mansion, although Chen Xi didn't know them, but they were dressed like the guards in front of him, and their identities were naturally the same; And behind them, a young woman who was also surrounded in the middle, with a graceful figure and a light veil, even if she didn't look at her face, that figure was a rare stunner, not to mention that at the moment when she passed by, a light breeze came from nowhere and raised the corner of the veil facing Chen Xi's side, revealing a beautiful woman's face.

Although he only glanced at it from the side, he didn't really see it, but it also made Chen Xi's heart skip a beat, the skin that deceived the frost and snow, and the skin that could be broken by blowing bombs, with a smile that I don't know if it was shy or athletic (evil?). The flushed pink cheeks after that, the fresh and smooth neck like a freshly peeled egg, especially the hooked eyes under the eyebrows of the shocking glance, even if he didn't look at himself, Chen Xi always felt that the afterglow swept to his side, so that he couldn't help but stop his waist, and in the panic in his heart, he seemed to just want to show his best side, but unfortunately the other party didn't even give him a look. But Chen Xi was unconscious, and only felt that the scene when the veil was slightly lifted by the wind would probably remain in his memory for a long time.

As for the man and woman following behind the woman, the appearance of the little maid and the maidservant girl is not easy to attract attention, not to mention that all of them have been robbed of their brilliance by the woman at this moment.

"General Chen, General Chen?" The guard who led Chen Xi took a few steps forward and felt that something was wrong, and when he turned around, he found that Chen Xi seemed to be in a daze, and he hurriedly screamed a few times, but his tone was still very normal.

"Huh? Ah......" Chen Xi, who had just come back to his senses and realized the situation at this time, was a little embarrassed, and hurriedly covered it up, so as not to be seen by this guard, like this kind of person around Wen Hou. It's better to stay away. Especially if he noticed what he had just done and informed Wen Hou, I am afraid that he would look good at that time.

This woman has just come out of the Lu Mansion, who can know if she has something to do with Wen Hou? Chen Xi was still sleeping in beauty just now, unable to extricate himself. Now thinking of this, I really scared myself into a cold sweat. Don't think about this kind of person. It's too long to look at.

But then he hurried forward, and after the guard said something, he didn't hear it clearly, although the woman's face was only one, and then the graceful figure gradually disappeared. But it seems to have been permanently engraved into Chen Xi's mind, so that he was a little absent-minded when he walked later, so this Lu Mansion is not the same as the one in Luoyang or the one in Jiuyuan, and the scale is much worse, so it will not go wrong, until he came to the lobby where he met Lu Bu, Chen Xi finally reined in his mind and completely detached himself from those unrealistic ideas.

When he saw Lu Bu for the first time, he gave a military salute and said respectfully: "The last general has seen the captain!" ”

If Chen Xi raised his head at this time, he would find that Lu Bu's clothes at this time seemed to be a little untidy, and the look on his face was a little worried as if he had just woken up from his sleep. ”

Chen Xi was stunned, he didn't expect Wen Hou to be so straight to the point, shouldn't he have a drink first and then chat and greet his family, what is the situation with such a fast pace?

However, he still reacted quickly and responded: "Chen Xi doesn't know, I am willing to hear the details, as long as Chen Xiande can do it, he will not hesitate to go to the soup." ”

Anyway, there's no harm in having nothing to do with a sycophant, and taking everything on yourself, so as not to involve the family or something.

Lu Bu waved his hand, "I don't need to go to the soup and fire, but maybe I need to contact my father first." ”

Chen Xi was confused, but he still stubbornly said: "Please also ask Wen Hou to make ...... clearly"

Lu Bu smiled: "It's not a bad thing to rest assured, don't worry about the family." Although Benhou is not a sage, it is also impossible."

was directly expressed by Lu Bu in his heart, Chen Xi was a little embarrassed, and it was not easy to speak.

Lu Bu said: "What Ben Hou is thinking about is actually the fact that the Bingzhou Chamber of Commerce entered this Hebei, but the Chamber of Commerce does not belong to the government after all, and it was stated at the beginning that the Chamber of Commerce is responsible for its own development, and Ben Hou is not easy to intervene directly, so he wants to send a message to the family, saying that Ben Hou hopes that the Bingzhou Chamber of Commerce can cooperate and communicate with some local merchants in Jizhou. ”

Hearing this, Chen Xi breathed a sigh of relief inexplicably, and immediately moved in his heart.

After all, he was born in a merchant family, and he was a business wizard under the influence of hearing and seeing, but he still had some insight and ideas, and Wen Hou's move made him feel that it was not just as simple as it was not possible to communicate between the two places on the surface, especially the Zhongshan Wuji Zhen family, which may be the key to this chamber of commerce exchange.

So what is the real purpose of Wenhou, is it to support the Zhen family, or does he want to use the Bingzhou Chamber of Commerce to control the economic communication of Hebei?

No matter what Wen Hou's purpose is, Chen Xi can only agree now: "Obey Wen Hou's orders, and when I go back later, Xi will send a message to my father......"

"No," Lu Bu interrupted him with a hand, "I want you to explain it yourself, of course, I will send someone with you, and he will tell you what to do and say anything, but you just do what you ask." ”

“…… Here! ”

……

Liang Shuang was originally a native of Wuyuan in Bingzhou, although he came from a humble background, he had an adventurous heart.

To say that in such a troubled world, the lives of ordinary people are completely insecure, rather than living a dull life suddenly one day somehow lost their lives, it is better to have a fight, maybe you can have a bright future?

With such an idea, Liang Shuang borrowed some money from everywhere, so that the Han Dynasty opened an inn in Wuyuan at the beginning of the second year, and the business could only be regarded as average, which was different from his expectations, especially Wei Yue, Wang Kai and others, who were actually in power in Wuyuan at that time, exploited these civilians and small merchants below, and Liang Shuang wanted to give up several times.

But soon he was glad that he finally persevered, because it was less than half a year of hard work, and Lu Bu came back, and this time he returned, many people felt that this former flying general seemed to have changed a little, originally only knew that after the return of military training and martial arts, he actually vigorously promoted the irrigation and water conservancy construction in various parts of Bingzhou, the construction of Bingzhou Academy, etc., compared with these, it is a trivial matter to promote the formation of the Bingzhou Chamber of Commerce.

Strictly speaking, Lu Bu is just a proposer, of course, some of the initial plans are generally based on his opinions, such as the establishment of a president and two vice presidents in the Chamber of Commerce, which are voted on by secret ballot by all members of the Chamber of Commerce, and in addition, a special supervisory body that has no interest in the Chamber of Commerce; There are several supervisors, who are responsible for conducting regular and irregular inspections of the election of the Chamber of Commerce and the balance of large income and expenditure, etc., and once problems are found, they will be handed over to the criminal agency of the Chamber of Commerce to deal with; According to the rules of the Chamber of Commerce, the criminal institution will decide to impose penalties such as expulsion from the Chamber of Commerce and permanent non-employment of those who violate the rules of the Chamber of Commerce.

Even if the legislative group led by Xun Shuang and assisted by Liangle and Lu Cui demarcated by Lu Bu has been constantly revising laws and regulations according to the expansion of the scope of Lu Bu's rule, strictly speaking, it is also based on the actual situation and some repairs on the basis of the original Han law, and with the expansion of the territory and the need for control of more and more places and people, it is mainly for stability, and there will be no major changes; When Lu Bu is now a lieutenant, the laws and regulations formulated by this group have only been implemented in the territory of the state, and it is still the Han family in the division of the subordinate, and there is still a long way to go if Lu Bu really wants to change.

Speaking back to the state chamber of commerce......

The Chamber of Commerce operates independently, usually does not interfere in the daily business affairs of the members, but grasps in the general direction, such as the pricing of materials, the evaluation of costs, etc., which have caused a lot of trouble in the initial operation, and the number of people involved at that time is not much, and it has not caused much problem, and after accumulating experience, with the increase in the attractiveness of the Chamber of Commerce, it has gradually grown and now almost becomes a veritable distribution center for businessmen in the state, because the rules are implemented in place, And it does play some due roles and effects, so there are fewer and fewer problems, and the operation is becoming more and more standardized.

Liang Shuang is very fortunate that he is a member of the Chamber of Commerce, although he is only one of the ordinary members, but he can also feel some of the benefits brought by joining the Chamber of Commerce, for example, the Chamber of Commerce provides a platform for members to communicate with each other, in the past, for cost considerations, you may have to go around to find other raw material merchants and then shop around to make a final decision, now on the table, everyone is in a boat, no one wants to pit anyone, unified pricing or floating pricing after the implementation of virtually makes the cost greatly reduced, The natural surplus has also increased, not to mention that with the implementation and promotion of Lu Bu's policy of reopening the Hetao for recuperation within the scope of Bingzhou, the development of Bingzhou has begun to get on the right track, and the people's lives are not rich but they have some surpluses, and their consumption power has improved, which is naturally a great blessing for these businessmen from all walks of life.
