After a full meal of seafood that made Zhao Lie complain at night, Zhao Lie fell asleep happily early, and as a result, in less than half an hour, Yu Dabao woke up Zhao Lie, and the fleet of the Meng family in Yangzhou arrived, and the head of the Meng family asked to see him.

Damn, I can't live this day, I am also a member of the Sanpin, a military general of the Ming Dynasty, this day is too hard, I can't even get a good night's sleep, annoyed is annoyed, Zhao Lie is still strong to change clothes to see, but at this time I can't be willful.

When Meng Guangshan heard Zhang Ting's reply, he was dissatisfied in his heart, it was certain, I could raise the price of copper, but I still had to buy and sell shares. It is not that there are no shares of officials in the business of the Meng family, but it is also the shares of the officials in charge of Yangzhou City, you are just a thousand households in Shandong, but the shortage of copper and silver still makes him unable to give up, give him two percent of the shares, and his own income is still a big head, but it is not good to look at it like this. So Meng Guangshan carefully interrogated Zhao Lie, Meng Guangshan was deeply impressed by what Zhang Ting said, leading tens of thousands of people to open up the bay, working with refugees, the same food, sleeping in a tent, especially mentioning the situation of hot gas scattered in the tea blown by the tent, Meng Guangshan deeply admired, however, Meng Guangshan is a big businessman, the premise of cooperation is to have an account, what he can see from this is that this person has great ambitions, maybe has a great future, and can meet and discuss in detail. After thinking about it for a few days, he made up his mind, so he came by boat with Zhang Ting.

Before Meng Guangshan came, he had already learned that Zhao Lie was young, and after meeting today, he was still surprised, he was too young, and he didn't know if it was suitable for the silver and copper business, you must know that this is not a sight.

After the two sides met and greeted, Zhao Lie got straight to the point, "Last time, I don't know what the owner Meng considered about the conditions I talked about with Mr. Zhao. ”

Meng Guangshan realized what Zhang Ting said, and this person spoke straightforwardly.

"My lord, I would like to ask if the supply of silver and copper can be cut off." This is what Meng Guangshan is most concerned about.

"Don't worry, the official guarantees that it will not be broken, and it will be there all year round." Zhao Lie thought to himself, as long as the Ming Dynasty was in short supply of silver and copper, the silver and copper imported around him would continue, and the great cause at sea had just begun.

Just because you are an official, I am so cautious, you must know that officials eat people and do not spit out bones, but you are not from the Yangzhou boundary, so it is a big deal to break up.

"Okay, my lord, my Meng family is willing to cooperate sincerely with my lord." Meng Guangshan decided not to delay any longer, after all, the opponent had silver and bronze hole cards in his hand.

"Okay, Master Meng is happy, then I wish our two families a prosperous business. Come and entertain the guests. ”

Of course, it's a seafood feast, crabs, sea cucumbers, shark fins, tuna, etc., and when you taste it for the first time, it's extremely delicious, but it's ...... every day, well, you know.

On the wine table, the atmosphere was very warm.

During the banquet, Meng Guangshan intentionally or unintentionally said that it is not easy to operate, the current officials, the new officials, the eunuchs, the market, the commercial taxes on weekdays can not be arrears, and the temporary tax increase of the government must not be arrears.

Zhao Lie smiled when he heard this, how familiar this is this, more than one person in the shopping mall in later generations has said it, and even said that in the era of the official standard, the troubles of businessmen are the same, if you want to make the business bigger, it is impossible not to deal with officials, otherwise where will the big opportunity come, but once you are implicated with officials, this is a time bomb, you can only pray that this person will not have an accident, and if something happens, it will not be used by someone with a heart to hit him, otherwise he will be ruined if he is not careful. If you are in a pharmaceutical company, you can't avoid interacting with the health bureau and hospital leaders, otherwise you will be sold to ghosts, and you will be cautious and cautious back then, and try to clean up and close up as much as possible, so as not to be implicated. Today's Lao Meng's words aroused his memories of the past.

"You can't retreat, if you retreat, the glory of the family's property will be lost immediately, and if you advance, you will be on the edge of the abyss, like walking on thin ice, and you can't advance or retreat once you enter the business road." Zhao Lie summarized Meng Guangshan's words.

Meng Guangshan was shocked, is this what a little kid less than twenty said, this should be the words of the old fritters who have been in the market for decades.

Zhao Lie was very satisfied with the surprise shown by Meng Guangshan and Zhang Ting.

"I think of China for thousands of years, cultivating acres of land, it is my businessman who circulates species, cultivates ironware, it is my businessman who mines and smelts, the people's rations, it is my businessman who colludes with it, so that rice abundance does not hurt farmers, rice famine does not die, the four seasons alternate, it is we who improve equipment, weave cloth and sell clothes, it is not easy to traffic in the distance, we improve the carriages and horses, the waterway is difficult and dangerous, we improve the boats, and the moat changes the thoroughfare. We also have to support a group of subordinates, helpers, helpers, and also raise taxes and donations, and deal with officialdom. Zhao Lie summed up the tragic role of the merchant for thousands of years. For thousands of years, China has referred to the productive merchants and circulating merchants as merchants, large profiteers, extremely insulting and insulting, no profit can not afford to be early, hoarding and strange, even the great writer Bai Juyi also came out to join in the fun, and the merchants cleaned up other poems and other poems, but also set the businessmen with the label of heavy profits, it is really a thousand years of immortality, Nima, Lord Bai can have food and salary in the open, collect offerings in private, and the businessman does not earn a little money, let him starve to death at home. Such people can be said to be representatives of the thousand-year-old gentry class, who scold profiteers in their mouths, and in private they either appoint officials with endless corrupt methods, or impose heavy rents on tenant farmers and even force people to die, which is extremely despicable and shameless.

Meng Guangshan and Zhang Ting's eyes were red, these words were too incisive, too much appetite for hard businessmen like us, saying that it was a giant businessman, that is, he was majestic to his subordinates and slaves, and in terms of status, he was the fourth in the country, whoever was aggrieved could scold two sentences, whoever had power could extort it, and whoever had a knife and gun in his hand could rob it. Meng Guangshan was in a trance and found that his status was so low.

"However, the kingdoms of Taixi were founded by commerce, and merchants opened mines, workshops, and shops, formed fleets to communicate with each other, until they went abroad to sell and feed a large number of subordinates, and the merchants taxed the king, and the king was responsible for his safety, and the king had to negotiate with the merchants to raise taxes." Zhao Lie really envied the current England, the rise of England is the victory of capitalism of big businessmen and big capitalists, which greatly limited the supreme and unbridled royal power in the past, canceled the privileges given by the king in the past, established the contract system, and miraculously achieved a balance, and established a constitutional monarchy. In the end, it quickly surpassed Spain, Portugal and other countries to become the empire on which the sun never sets, while other countries such as France, Russia, Spain, Portugal and other countries were still in a dilemma in the mud of royal power, and the whim of the king could make the big businessmen busy and busy, and the order and coherence of the operation were impossible to talk about. The British Empire has long since fallen to the ground.

"My lord, there is such a country in this world." Meng Guangshan really didn't believe it, it was too subversive of Meng Da Shang's decades of cognition, and he said in his heart, boy, you won't be entertaining me.

"This is not a lie, it can be known when Lord Meng meets the Francois businessman." Zhao Lie was not afraid of him asking, the great changes in Western Europe would start immediately, and the spirit of contract was recognized in Western Europe. The bourgeois upheaval has come. Zhao Lie also urgently needs a large number of businessmen to surround him and take advantage of the wind. Changing this era on your own is a fool's dream, and it can only be done by building a whole new class. Today, it is necessary to plant this seed in Lao Meng's heart, and it is certain that it will take root and sprout.

Meng Guangshan was sleepless all night on this day, all this Zhao Lie said made him sleepless all night, when can Daming have such a day, is it true.

Zhao Lie slept very well, he worked hard every day, and slept very sweetly every night, but he didn't know that a flicker in the day made Lao Meng toss and turn.
