Chapter 135: Establishment of the Chamber of Commerce

The tavern's haunted incident finally came to an end, and Xu Xiaoxiao arranged for the children hiding in the tavern to live in the Xuanzhao Hospital.

specially explained to Lin Qingquan and asked him to take good care of these fatherless and motherless children.

In order to pay off the debts of the creditors as soon as possible, Cheng Qing offered to help the tavern serve food without performing in order to earn more silver taels.

Shopkeeper Huang also told Cheng Qing about the mole in the troupe, and everyone agreed that this mole was Chen Lian.

But Chen Lian didn't bring other members to find the Huang shopkeeper, they disappeared like evaporation from the world.

Cheng Qing was worried about the safety of Chen Lian and asked Wang Duo for help in finding it, and Wang Duo responded with great interest and arranged for people to search for Chen Lian's news in Xin'an City overnight.

After a night of tossing, Xu Xiaoxiao slept until three poles in the morning, she did not go to the tavern today but came to Zhao's shopkeeper's camp with the latest drawings.

"Shopkeeper Zhao?" Xu Xiaoxiao stood in front of the tent and shouted softly.

Shopkeeper Zhao walked out of the tent and greeted Xu Xiaoxiao with a smile, "Xiaoxiao, come in." ”

Xu Xiaoxiao entered the tent under the warm hospitality of Zhao's shopkeeper, and in the future, great changes have taken place in the tent, with more expensive tables and chairs, calligraphy and paintings.

"What? Is the drawing out? Shopkeeper Zhao fell down the Longjing, which had just been brewed, and pushed the teacup in front of Xu Xiaoxiao, his eyes fell on the drawings in her arms.

Xu Xiaoxiao hurriedly took the drawings to the desk, and then spread out the drawings.

"Shopkeeper Zhao, take a look, how about this attic-style courtyard?"

Shopkeeper Zhao looked at the drawings on the desktop happily and nodded with satisfaction, "I like it very much, it's really complete." ”

"Yes, I also added a constant temperature treatment for you, and it will be warm in winter and cool in summer." Xu Xiaoxiao pointed to the annotations on the drawings and said.

"Okay, I don't have to worry about your errands, the prince has already helped me choose a good place, and I can start work in the near future." Shopkeeper Zhao said with a smile.

Xu Xiaoxiao nodded, "By the way, as well as the matter of shareholding mentioned before, I have also drafted an agreement, you can take a look." ”

She pulled out a stack of rice paper from her bosom.

Shopkeeper Zhao took the rice paper in surprise, and he flipped through it one by one, "It's so detailed." ”

Xu Xiaoxiao smiled and nodded, "Yes, I'm worried that you won't understand, so I deliberately tried to make each article as simple and easy to understand." ”

"Shopkeeper Zhao, look first, I still have to go to the tavern."

"It's okay, I'm done, you write a copy for signature, and I'll go with you." Shopkeeper Zhao handed over the rice paper to Xu Xiaoxiao.

The two left the camp and got into the carriage, which galloped all the way to Chang'an Avenue.

"I heard about Lao Huang, I still wondered, the reason why I helped this young man more than ten years ago was because of his kindness to make an exception to help him, and I thought that people had become bad for more than ten years, and I didn't expect this guy to pretend to be a pig and eat a tiger." Shopkeeper Zhao shook his head with a smile and said.

Speaking of this, Xu Xiaoxiao felt ashamed, and couldn't imagine that she had almost wronged a good person, so in order to apologize, she brought the planted tea leaves to the Yanji Tavern this time.

The carriage stopped in front of the Yan Kee Tavern, which was deserted after lunch.

Xiao Er leaned on the chair and fell asleep, and the shopkeeper Huang stood at the counter to settle accounts.

The two looked up in surprise when they heard the movement, and when they saw that the people who came turned out to be Xu Xiaoxiao and Zhao Zhang, the shopkeeper Huang hurriedly walked out of the counter.

"Rare guest, Boss Zhao, you are finally willing to come to my store and sit down." The shopkeeper Huang hurriedly waved his hand to let the guy pour the tea.

Seeing this, the guy ran back to the back kitchen.

Xu Xiaoxiao put the packaged tea leaves on the table, "Shopkeeper Huang, I'm really sorry, I misunderstood you before, this is the tea we planted." ”

The shopkeeper picked up the tea leaves blankly and sniffed them, his eyes instantly brightened, "This is not the tea you brought to the tavern before?" ”

"This one is better than last time." Xu Xiaoxiao scratched her head in embarrassment, she didn't dare to say that the variety was the same, yesterday she joked that this variety was just for ordinary diners to drink, if she knew that it was actually the same, wouldn't it be a shame.

The shopkeeper Huang was embarrassed and pushed the tea in front of Xu Xiaoxiao, "It's not easy for you, now the price of tea is still high, keep it for sale money." ”

"Shopkeeper Huang, we have planted a lot of this tea, you can take it with confidence." Xu Xiaoxiao was at a loss to pick up the tea and handed it to the shopkeeper Huang.

Shopkeeper Zhao sat in the middle and got up when he saw this, and handed the tea in Xu Xiaoxiao's hand to Shopkeeper Huang, "You can accept the young man's wishes." ”

When the shopkeeper Huang saw that the benefactor had spoken, he didn't shirk it, and carefully put the tea beside him.

Looking at the tea leaves beside him, he looked at Xu Xiaoxiao curiously, "Little girl, you said you planted a lot of tea?" ”

Xu Xiaoxiao choked up instantly, she forgot that it had not been half a year since Liujia Village came to Xin'an City, and it seemed unrealistic to suddenly grow tea.

When she was thinking about how to speak, Shopkeeper Zhao saw that she was embarrassed.

"It is estimated that the prince planted it before, and then handed it over to Xiaoxiao to take care of." Shopkeeper Zhao said with a smile.

The shopkeeper Huang suddenly realized, then he could understand why they suddenly had such a good tea.

"That little girl, do you want to sell tea outside the city?" He leaned over and whispered.

Xu Xiaoxiao's eyes lit up, and he also leaned over and asked, "Is there a way for the shopkeeper Huang?" ”

"I don't know the way, I know some ministers in the capital, and they also like to drink tea, so you can sell the tea to the tea shops in the capital."

Xu Xiaoxiao asked with interest, "It's better to be like this, Huang Shopkeeper, you come to introduce, I will give you the lowest price, and you can control the profit yourself." ”

When the shopkeeper heard this, he became interested and forced his joy, "I think this method will work, then contact the people in the capital first, but..."

As soon as he talked about the capital, his face changed from joy to sorrow, and he hung his head like he wanted to speak.

"But what?" Xu Xiaoxiao asked puzzled.

"It should be that the world is chaotic now, the road from Xin'an City to the capital is long, and there are many homeless people and bandits on the road, but I am afraid that the goods will be snatched away before I reach the capital." Shopkeeper Zhao picked up the teacup and said slowly.

Xu Xiaoxiao instantly understood the concern of the shopkeeper Huang, and she had recently heard Chu Qing say that the shopkeeper of many shops came to report to the official that his goods were robbed by bandits.

Chu Qing also personally led the pair to suppress the bandits, but the bandits were too cunning and seemed to know that he was coming, so they left the lair a long time ago. The case that led to the robbery of goods has not been solved for a long time, and the merchants have suffered heavy losses as a result.

"Yes, the prince also wants to help the merchants regain the lost goods, but the bandits are too cunning, and every time the building is empty." Shopkeeper Huang was indignant when he talked about the bandits, and many of his goods were taken away by the bandits not long ago, and his whereabouts are still unknown.

"Does the Chamber of Commerce care?" Xu Xiaoxiao thought that Boss Huang, Li Liu's employer before, was a person from the Chamber of Commerce, and the Chamber of Commerce was responsible for helping the businessmen in the city solve problems.

Shopkeeper Huang sneered a few times, and shook his head helplessly, "Where is the Chamber of Commerce, it has long been disbanded." ”

"Disbanded?" Xu Xiaoxiao looked at the shopkeeper Huang in surprise, "When is it?" ”

"About a month ago, without warning, the merchants in the city are now panicking." Shopkeeper Huang sighed worriedly.

Xu Xiaoxiao held his chin with his hands in contemplation, the Chamber of Commerce lifted the businessmen, everyone would definitely be in danger, and the businessmen who had lost the protection of the Chamber of Commerce could only choose to cut off their tails in order to protect themselves, and the shops on the street would be collectively closed.

No, this must not be allowed to happen.

"Then reorganize the Chamber of Commerce." Xu Xiaoxiao looked at the two of them with confidence, "I'll come." ”

Shopkeeper Zhao and Shopkeeper Huang looked at each other, stunned for a while, and looked at Xu Xiaoxiao blankly.

"Little girl, the Chamber of Commerce in the city needs a lot of money and personnel, but I'm afraid it's not that easy." Shopkeeper Zhao gently persuaded that he was also very anxious about the dissolution of the Xin'an City Chamber of Commerce, but now it is not a hurry to solve it.

Shopkeeper Huang agrees with Shopkeeper Zhao that the establishment of the Chamber of Commerce requires a lot of funds and connections, and I am afraid that it cannot be completed by a small amount alone.

"Aren't you old businessmen with more than ten years of experience? If we do not unite and establish a chamber of commerce, it will not be long before the shops on the street will lose faith and will not be able to open, and then there will be chaos in the city, and this is the fate of all of us. ”

Xu Xiaoxiao naturally knew the worries in the hearts of the two, but she couldn't wait, seeing that it was about to enter winter, if she didn't solve the problem of the Chamber of Commerce, the winter materials needed by the people in the city would not be able to be bought.
