Chapter 273: Escape from the restaurant

There are also several towns that the caravans often pass by, as well as the crops that the people around those towns are used to planting, Chen Mu nodded secretly.

It seems that we can go back and carefully plan the trade routes in various places.

Thinking like this, Chen Mu raised his hand and touched his chin.

After confirming the trade routes and business matters, Chen Mu remembered the local chamber of commerce.

He remembered that he had asked Master He about the local chamber of commerce.

However, because there were other things that had not been taken care of at that time, Lord He did not clarify the situation of the local chamber of commerce.

"The local chamber of commerce is run by a boss surnamed Xu, and the chamber of commerce is a non-governmental organization with limited voice among the people."

"But because the local chambers of commerce are connected together, it is more convenient to negotiate conditions with the imperial court, so the establishment of this chamber of commerce is still very necessary."

"And once the local chambers of commerce are established, it will also be more conducive to local merchants and merchants in other places to jointly sell their goods."

"For example, in our town, many merchants are in the fabric business, and if you want to sell fabrics to other cities, you have to deal with the local chamber of commerce."

"If there is food or money that can be exchanged, it is naturally the best, if not, through the local chamber of commerce, and then disperse the backlog of goods in our hands and transport them to the town under the jurisdiction of the local chamber of commerce."

"In this way, the goods in our hands will not be held in detention for a long time."

"It is precisely because of this that we are thinking about joining the local chamber of commerce, but that Boss Xu is a guy with eyes above the top, perhaps because we did not give him benefits after coming to this town, Boss Xu has always remembered this matter."

"Therefore, when we applied to enter the Chamber of Commerce, we blocked it several times, even though several powerful elders in the Chamber of Commerce had agreed to let us join the Chamber of Commerce."

"Then Boss Xu doesn't agree to let us join, after all, he is the boss of the Chamber of Commerce, if he doesn't agree, we have no way to join the Chamber of Commerce."

The chamber of commerce is like a gang in various places, and the richest businessmen in the area are in charge of everything in the chamber.

Boss Xu is considered a wealthy businessman with some strength in this town, so the affairs of the Chamber of Commerce are handled by him.

When Chen Mu heard the young men say this, he nodded in agreement, and then frowned.

It's not appropriate for Boss Xu to do this.

"We have been here in this town for two or three years, and we have not robbed Boss Xu's business, we think we are doing a good job, but Boss Xu is ...... like this."

"Alas, but then again, since he is the boss of the local chamber of commerce, we don't dare to touch his brow, he is not willing to let us enter the chamber of commerce, so we can only wait."

"I'll send him something good every New Year's holiday, hoping that he will be in a good mood one day and let us enter the Chamber of Commerce."

As soon as the young man spoke of the Chamber of Commerce, his face became sad again.

Seeing them like this, Chen Mu smiled and didn't say much.

It seems that the chambers of commerce in various places also need to be rectified.

It would be best if it could be run by the county magistrates of various counties.

However, he also knew that it would not be so easy to bring the power of the Chamber of Commerce into the hands of the county magistrates.

After all, the chamber of commerce is a civil force, they have their own plans, and those who do business and those who engage in politics are two unrelated parallel lines.

Although there are many wealthy families who are businessmen, there are also people who are engaged in politics.

However, if they do not seek their own interests in private, many people in politics are still reluctant to have anything to do with business people.

In ancient times, those poor students or officials of the DPRK and China looked down on these businessmen.

Although these traders had great wealth, their status in various places was not high.

Chen Mu sighed secretly, he had no intention of elevating the status of a businessman.

Because he knew that if he raised his status as a businessman, the gathering of civil forces in one place would not be of any benefit to him to sit firmly at the bottom of the mountain.

It's just that for the management of local chambers of commerce, it is still necessary to plan for unification.

It is possible to start from the factory government office and invite the big people in the chamber of commerce to sit in the government office.

In this way, it is natural to let the county order interfere in the chamber of commerce and slowly encroach on the power within the chamber of commerce.

In this way, it will also be easier to supervise the Chamber of Commerce in the future.

Thinking about it like this, Chen Mu nodded secretly, and had a good idea.

Those young people didn't know Chen Mu's plan yet, and after a few gossips with Chen Mu, the young man's mouth was dry.

They glanced up at the time, and saw that it was not too early.

Several young people drank a lot of tea while talking to Chen Mu again.

Several people immediately stood up and bowed to Chen Mu, preparing to go out conveniently.

Seeing a few young merchants leaving the private room with their shoulders on their backs, only Chen Mu, Meng Qing and Master He were left in the private room.

Master He took a deep breath and finally relaxed a little.

God knows how worried he was when he watched those young merchants talking to Chen Mu, for fear that those young merchants would accidentally say something that would anger His Royal Highness the Prince.

His Royal Highness the Crown Prince directly ordered to drag those young merchants out and behead them.

Although he also knew that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince had a good temper, those young merchants did not hide their words.

even dared to comment on the government and politics, and when Lord He watched those young merchants talk about the court, the cold sweat on his forehead fell.

He just wanted to jump up and stop the young merchants.

"His Royal Highness the Prince, let's go back when they come back later, I see that it is not early, you sit here and listen to their chatter, and you are tired of coming."

Master He said this, looked up in the direction of Chen Mu, and a smile appeared on his face.

When Chen Mu heard Lord He say this, he raised his eyebrows, nodded and agreed.

He didn't feel tired, he understood what Lord He meant.

Lord He was probably worried that if he continued to stay here and listen, and chatted with those young people, he would hear something he shouldn't hear.

Chen Mu didn't care about what these young people said, it was normal for them to talk about political affairs and scold themselves and their father behind their backs.

Since the superior is in power and can influence the life and death of these people, it means that these people need to be vigilant, fearful and worried about them.

In such a situation, they are on the opposite side,

You can't always hope that people on the opposite side will support you all the time.

It's normal to have occasional complaints and dissatisfactions.

Moreover, the young men did not express any dissatisfaction with him, let alone say anything that would affect his reputation and that of his father.

"Their views on the affairs of the DPRK and China are fair and objective, you don't have to worry, since I am now a rich son, I naturally will not use my identity as the crown prince to understand what they just said."

"And it's just a small talk, I won't take it personally."
