Chapter 252: Competition
Chapter 252 Competition
Hearing this, Nicholas Tse's gaze 'shot' towards Zhuang Mingxi, Qin Tian continued to look at the side, and found that the former fiancΓ©e was now as strange as passers-by.
There are so many mysteries that are puzzling.
Moreover, I heard Master Li say before that Nicholas Tse was the one who recommended them for their prosperity, did he recommend them because he thought they were suitable, or did he have another purpose?
Is this trip to Suizhou a blessing or a curse? Qin Tian's mood suddenly became heavy.
"Yifeng Bank is also one of the sixteen merchants, and Mrs. Shen, as the head of Yifeng Bank, of course has the right to speak, but Mrs. Shen says it's okay." Nicholas Tse said with a smile.
All eyes were on Zhuang Mingxi. Zhuang Mingxi smiled slightly, and his heart was happy.
Since she became the head of the house, it has not been without limelight, and there has never been a time when she has been so happy as today
Because Qin Tian was there.
In the past, as long as there was an occasion for her, she was the most eye-catching one, everyone's eyes were focused on her, and she could easily get everyone's recognition and love, but now feng shui takes turns, this is Suizhou, not Yangcheng, here is her Zhuang Mingxi's world Qin Tian will become her foil
"I think you must have heard that soon a big ship from Yingli will come to shore, dressed in spices, cotton 'flowers', cotton 'wool' fabrics, metals and other goods, and the owner of this ship is also interested in buying a large amount of tea, silk, and porcelain to go back ......."
Speaking of this, Zhuang Mingxi suddenly stopped, picked up the teacup in front of him and took a few sips, saying that half of the tea cup was left to satisfy everyone's appetite, and someone couldn't help asking: "Everyone knows this, I don't know what this has to do with the general merchant?" β
Zhuang Mingxi quietly glanced at Qin Tian beside him, and continued to smile: "The concubine feels that what Liu Guan said just now makes a lot of sense. The position of general merchant is very important, and it must be comprehensive in the selection, not only the ability, the character, but also the strength of the net worth. So the concubine thinks that we might as well have a competition."
Everyone's eyes lit up: "Competition? β
"Yes, it's competition" Zhuang Mingxi stood up, and for a while, she became the focus of the audience.
"After the big ship docks, which tea shop has the ability to get the underwriting right of their goods, and has the ability to let him buy a large number of goods back, and can ensure the other party's taxes, compared to this businessman, whether it is ability, strength, financial resources are beyond doubt, such a businessman can become a general merchant to convince everyone, isn't it?"
When saying these words, Zhuang Mingxi's mind couldn't help but recall the situation when Qin Tianyu fought against the five major tea shops before, at that time, she was not in a hurry, not in a hurry, not impatient, and relied on the three-inch tongue not to "force" the offensive of the five major tea shops, she was not shocked at that time. What was the feeling in her heart at that time? Jealous? Admire? Or both? Zhuang Mingxi no longer remembers, but only the momentum that Qin Tian exuded at that time seemed to be engraved in her mind, and she couldn't forget it.
Subconsciously, she imitated Qin Tian's movements at that time, bent down slightly, propped her hands on the round table, her eyes were blazing, full of confidence, at this moment, she had an indescribable sense of satisfaction, as if, she already had the strength to surpass Qin Tian.
She looked at everyone, smiled slightly, and was full of family: "I don't know what everyone thinks?" β
After thinking about it for a while, everyone agreed, and even the three adults said that this was the best way.
Among them, Commissioner Zhu also gave a thumbs up and praised: "Mrs. Shen is really worthy of being called a 'female' Zhuge "
Zhuang Mingxi smiled, turned his head to look at Qin Tian, and saw that her face was calm, and she didn't seem to care about her performance, her eyes were slightly cold, and she didn't turn her head to look at Master Zhu and smiled: "Your Excellency has won the prize."
The banquet lasted an hour before it ended. Everyone said goodbye to each other, and Nicholas Tse didn't have anything unusual when he left, not even looking at them more. However, Zhuang Ming walked to Qin Tian's side with a smile, and said affectionately: "I live on Chengnan Road, we are a family, but we have to move around more."
This scene was seen by everyone, like an affectionate family.
Seeing that the rest of the merchants had looked over, Qin Tian took two steps back without a trace, kept a distance from her, and said lightly: "The coming day is long, don't worry." β
How could Zhuang Mingxi express his intimacy with her in front of the public for no reason, and now that the competition is imminent, what is the purpose of her actions?
There are sixteen merchants, and there is only one general merchant, everyone is bound to form an alliance in this competition for their own interests, and Zhuang Mingxi's action is to make everyone mistakenly think that the two of them have a close relationship and have the possibility of an alliance. In this way, they will be excluded from other interest groups, will she really ally with Zhuang Mingxi? Of course it can't be, in the end, Shengshi will only be isolated, it is difficult to make a difference, and no matter who comes to power, he will be in a passive position
This errand of 'dealing' with the government is not easy to do, and if it is not even a little worse, it will be the end of the family's 'bankruptcy', although Qin Tian and they have no ambition, but they never want to become an object that can be regarded by others without scruples.
Seeing that Qin Tian easily saw through his intentions, Zhuang Mingxi's heart sank slightly, but the smile on his face remained unchanged, "It seems that my sister-in-law has just arrived, and everything is busy, since this is the case, I won't bother for the time being." With that, he turned around and got into his carriage.
After Zhuang Mingxi left, Yang Guan and Pan Guan paced to Qin Tian's side together, and Yang Guan smiled: "It seems that Mrs. Shen is very disappointed." It's just that I don't understand how to get to such a strange point even if it's a family. β
Qin Tian sighed, pretending to be very embarrassed and said: "You don't know, we had a very unpleasant split back then, and we have hardly had contact since we separated. β
After finishing speaking, Qin Tian took advantage of the moment when they were stunned and left with Zhuang Xinyan.
Here, Zhuang Mingxi withdrew his gaze from the car window and snorted heavily.
"Madam, where are you going now?" Magpie asked outside.
Zhuang Mingxi thought for a while, and suddenly smiled: "Go to the Governor's Palace." β
I haven't seen you for three years, and it's time to meet.
couldn't help it, Zhuang Mingxi 'touched' to the 'chest', where there was a piece of half-cut 'jade' pendant hidden close to his body. Through the fabric, she seemed to be able to 'touch' the lines of the 'jade' and the carved 'flowers', and after the sourness in her heart, a cold light flashed in her eyes.
Doge's House Study
After Nicholas Tse went to the study, he saw Zhuang Mingxi looking at a painting on the wall with his back to him.
He coughed lightly, and Zhuang Mingxi turned around.
At that moment, he seemed to see Zhuang Mingxi's face 'yin' cold and prosperous. But when he looked at it again, he was smiling again, which made him suspect that the moment just now was just an illusion.
"Master Xie, long time no see." Zhuang Mingxi smiled.
