When Zhou Chen removed the red cloth hanging on the plaque, the Northern Xinjiang Mutual Market could be regarded as officially open for operation.

Under the guidance of a group of Youyu County officials, all the people who were interested in the Northern Xinjiang Mutual Market walked into the Fang City in an orderly manner and began to wander the streets of the Northern Xinjiang Mutual Market.

Even the herdsmen who came here to join in the excitement because of their curiosity also entered the three horizontal markets where the Ming Dynasty traders gathered.

When the price of goods sold in these shops in the market was confirmed, the eyes of these herdsmen suddenly appeared with a deep light of surprise.

Because there are scarce sugar, tea, salt, cloth and other goods on the grassland, there are really all of them in this city, and there is no purchase restriction at all.

The most important thing is that the price of these goods is not even 20% of the previous price, which immediately makes the herders red-eyed.

However, compared to the huge volume of the mutual market in northern Xinjiang, the rush purchase of some herdsmen can be regarded as nothing, and the goods sold in the market are still abundant.

Not only were the herdsmen very surprised and excited, but the vendors who set up shops in the market were also smiling on their faces.

Despite the fact that the herders are buying these goods at a much cheaper price than before, the prices sold by these traders have not decreased.

Originally, although these traders also sold goods to the grassland, they were only able to do so through the channels of Fan Tian and other big merchants.

The real benefits of it can be said that all of them have been taken away by the Jia family, a big businessman like the two Fantian families.

These ordinary traders not only need to bear the risk of being caught for smuggling, but the real profits in their hands are not very rich.

However, the current situation is completely different, Zhou Chen used the power of the shopkeepers who were proficient in commercial trade in the Longmen Dart Bureau to investigate in detail the price fluctuations of goods on the Ming Dynasty and the grassland.

After making a suitable trade-off within this price range, Zhou Chen customized the price of goods in the northern Xinjiang mutual market.

So that the herdsmen on the grassland can not only buy cheap goods, but also the merchants of the Ming Dynasty can also get more profits.

Of course, in this way, for example, the Jin merchant families who have the ability to carry out smuggling trade in the Fan Tian family, their interests will definitely receive a lot of losses.

It's just that because the Fan Tian family has learned from the past and the ruthless methods of Jinyiwei are the last, these Jin Shang families don't have the courage to jump out and make trouble at all.

The reason why these Jin merchant families are so honest is because they know that they don't have the strength to go toe-to-toe with Zhou Chen, who holds two brocade clothes and a hundred households, and a established guard.

The second reason is that Youyu County is not the sphere of influence of the remaining six Jin merchant families.

Throwing out the smuggling channels here in Youyu County, their main smuggling channels are actually hidden near other passes.

Although Zhou Chen's power is very strong at the moment, he is powerless to cut off the smugglers in the northern frontier of the entire Ming Dynasty.

It is precisely because of this that except for the accident of the two Fan Tian families who smuggled in the border pass in Youyu County, the remaining six Jin merchant families could not offend Zhou Chen for the establishment of the Northern Xinjiang Mutual Market.

Moreover, the opening of the mutual market in northern Xinjiang is not without benefits for them, the big families of Jin merchants.

You must know that in the entire Shanxi Province, the business power of these families is still the most powerful.

If the Northern Xinjiang Mutual Market is really becoming more and more prosperous, their six major families of Jin merchants will naturally sell more goods and commodities to the grassland through here.

As for those contraband that were expressly forbidden by the Ming Dynasty and could not be circulated in the mutual market in Northern Xinjiang, they, the six major families of the Jin merchants, could smuggle them through other channels in Northern Xinjiang.

From a long-term perspective, as well as in the fundamental interests, this Northern Xinjiang mutual market may be more beneficial to their six major families of Jin merchants.

After seeing that whether it was the merchants of the Ming Dynasty or the herdsmen of the grassland, both of them had no special resistance to the Northern Xinjiang Mutual Market, Zhou Chen quietly left the Northern Xinjiang Mutual Market and returned to the Yazhong of Youyu County.

Before leaving, Zhou Chen left the appointment, and the two of them, Su Tong and Wang Yan, the chief bookkeeper, took turns to be in charge of the accounts of the Northern Xinjiang Mutual Market.

The shopkeepers who were borrowed from the Longmen Dart Bureau were responsible for managing the specific matters of the Northern Xinjiang Mutual Market.

And the thousand-household office that Youyulinwei was dispatched by the right Yulin guard on duty was fully responsible for the security of the mutual market in northern Xinjiang.

In addition, Jinyi Wei will also take turns to draw out a small flag and station it in the Northern Xinjiang Mutual Market, becoming Zhou Chen's eyes and ears in charge of monitoring the Northern Xinjiang Mutual Market.

As long as these people conscientiously manage the Northern Xinjiang Mutual Market and always uphold the three trade principles of fairness, justice and openness established by Zhou Chen, then there will definitely not be any big problems in the future development of the Northern Xinjiang Mutual Market.

Therefore, Zhou Chen himself doesn't need to keep an eye on the situation of the Northern Xinjiang Mutual Market, after all, he established this Northern Xinjiang Mutual Market to earn political achievements, not to form a shackle to bind himself.

Under the condition that there is no deviation in the general direction, Zhou Chen can completely sit in Youyu County Yalai to control all of the northern Xinjiang mutual market.

As for the trivial things that happened every day in the Northern Xinjiang Mutual Market, everything was solved by the county Cheng Su Tong and the chief bookkeeper Wang Yan, as well as the right Yulin Wei Qianhu who was responsible for guarding the safety of the Northern Xinjiang Mutual Market.

If Zhou Chen needs to do everything himself, then what do other officials do? Do you have an idle meal?

Knowing how to make good use of people and knowing how to delegate power is a truth that the vast majority of people who are officials will understand.

If he did everything by himself, then even with Zhou Chen's incomparably abundant spirit, he would probably be exhausted sooner or later by this.

You must know that Zhou Chen is just a small Zhengqipin Zhixian now.

Those ministers and important members of the court, even the current Emperor Hongzhi, who is not a busy man with all kinds of opportunities?

If these people had pressed all their affairs on their own bodies, I am afraid they would have died of exhaustion.

What's more, Zhou Chen has never been keen on this, he only chose to enter the official career in order to gather luck.

At that time when he was staring at the Northern Xinjiang Mutual Market, Zhou Chen might as well go and practice the sword technique twice.
