In the largest private room on the third floor of Xiangmanlou, more than 20 people loosely filled the four round tables.

It can only be said that Li Chengjiu's table is loose, and the other three tables, as long as they can squeeze a place, someone will inevitably shoehorn it in.

Li Shouren wanted to cry without tears.

As far as he is closest to the prince, according to this posture, he doesn't know how many pots he has to carry today.

Of course, Li Chengjiu didn't care, seeing that the dishes were all ready, he didn't let him, and took the lead in dragging a chicken leg and gnawing it first.

I drank a few mouthfuls of porridge in the morning, and my stomach had already begun to crumble.

As the saying goes, it's easy to get things done when you're full, so he beckoned everyone to hurry up and move chopsticks while eating.

Everyone pretended to laugh, and then they all took a mouthful of food and put it in their mouths, smacking the taste, but they all muttered in their hearts.

Eat Ni Mei!

Do you think we'll be able to eat it?

Is there anything you can say quickly?

Cut the meat with a slow knife and cook the tofu over a warm fire, we are uncomfortable.

A room full of human flesh is difficult to swallow in the mouth, only Li Chengjiu eats to the fullest, and the room is full of listening to him.

No, it's still a Li Shun.

This guy also eats with a mouth full of oil, anyway, it's none of his business, what do you like, I'll eat it first.

Everyone held their eyebrows, and from time to time they glanced at Li Shouren.

Li Shouren is called a troublemaker.

If the prince asks you to eat, eat it quickly, what are you doing with me? I'm not the initiator, so I'm looking for Zhang Guigui if I have something.

I cursed in my heart.

It was the first time he felt that the position of the president of the Chamber of Commerce was really difficult to sit in.

For a long time, it wasn't until Li Chengjiu felt that his stomach was a little cushioned, and then he raised his eyelids slightly.

Seeing that the dishes in front of everyone's table didn't move, he asked lightly, "Alas? Why don't you eat it? ”

When everyone heard this, they hurriedly hung a fake smile on their faces: "Eat, eat, come, the most delicious thing in Xiangmanlou is this jade pearl, which is fragrant and smooth in the mouth, and it is excellent." ”

"Yes, yes, eat."

moved their chopsticks one after another, seeing this, Li Chengjiu nodded with satisfaction.

That's right, he invited guests to a banquet today, and if no one eats it, it won't be a waste.

However, the room seemed to be full of guests, but the crowd was not eating.

The prince is really playing with this lust.

However, Li Chengjiu didn't know that he could eat thirty-six plans after eating.

I played three sets of dog-beating sticks in the morning, and after only a few mouthfuls of porridge, it was not a soak of urine that was gone.

wiped his mouth, and when he saw that the time was almost up, he turned his head and asked:

"President Li, have you told everyone the purpose of this king's banquet today?"

As soon as these words came out, Li Shouren was slightly stunned.

Alas?

Is the prince carrying the pot on his back?

No, there must be a fraud in this matter!

His heart tightened, but he hurriedly replied: "Back to the prince, the grass people have already informed everyone." ”

His conscience said that he did not know what the prince had called them for.

Can there be anything else but money?

But Li Chengjiu nodded, then stood up, and then picked up the wine glass and smiled at everyone:

"All of you here are well-known figures in southern Xinjiang, and in terms of financial and material resources, you control more than half of the economic lifeline of southern Xinjiang."

As the saying goes, shopping malls are like battlefields, and if you want to cooperate well, there is no need to make you die.

Speak wittily, at least bring the relationship closer.

But that's what he thinks, and others don't listen to it that way.

As soon as these words came out, everyone present subconsciously shuddered.

Look, come on, buckle such a big hat, we control the lifeline, you control us, damn it, it's really poisonous.

Everyone gritted their teeth and got up, forced a smile and drank the wine in their glasses.

At this time, no one can take a stubble, and whoever takes a stubble will die.

However, to everyone's surprise, the prince did not enter the topic they guessed, and continued to say:

"But have you ever thought that my southern Xinjiang is the smallest part of the entire territory of the Great Cloud Dynasty, and President Li knows that the emperor's new fine salt policy has not been implemented to us so far."

As soon as Li Shouren heard the words "Fine Salt New Deal", he felt a pain in his heart.

It's really a pot that can't be opened.

Nodding reluctantly, Li Chengjiu smiled.

"The country needs to develop, and my southern Xinjiang is no exception, but any dynasty will always develop outward with the capital as the center, which will cause a problem, whether it is policy or news, including property and market prices, we will be one step slower than others, so what?"

Speaking of this, Li Chengjiu deliberately paused, and silently glanced at everyone's expressions before saying:

"That's just leaving us at the mercy of others."

These words pierced everyone's hearts.

Southern Xinjiang is barren, and many materials need to be imported from other cities, which is inconvenient for transportation, and there will be mountain bandits in some remote sections.

When the source of goods really arrives in southern Xinjiang, the interests between them have long been squeezed to the ground.

It's hard to make some money.

Everyone sighed, but Li Chengjiu saw this with an undetectable smile on his face.

"So today's banquet is to solve this problem."

"What?!"

Everyone was surprised, and for the first time after entering the house, they turned all their attention to him.

Let's brag about it, but don't burrow your head into it.

If this problem can be solved, you still want to move Kyoto to our southern Xinjiang?

What kind of place is southern Xinjiang, don't you have a little pressure in your heart?

So if you want money, hurry up, don't pretend, how much silver do we want?

The expressions of the people were different, but none of them believed it.

Some of them were disdainful or disdainful, and finally some people couldn't listen to it anymore, so they got up and asked:

"I don't know how the prince wants to solve it?"

The tone is a little frivolous, obviously ready to spend money to watch the show.

Of course, Lee Seung-koo doesn't care.

Since someone asked, it would be easy to do.

"Our southern Xinjiang is bordered by the sea on the east side and the mountain stream on the west, so what products are there? Why should everything be imported from other cities? Can't we have our own production line? ”

Laughing and letting out a soul torture.

When everyone present heard this, they held their mouths.

Also its own production line, what to produce? Leather or rice? Hoes or tables and chairs?

It's really a touch of mouth, and you can say everything.

You think we haven't done it?

The key is not that the output is too low, and even our southern Xinjiang itself can't be satisfied, so what can we export?

Lee Seung-gu had actually investigated it a long time ago.

Xiaoxiao didn't speak, but took out a cloth bag directly from the outer pocket of the down jacket, and unfolded the cloth bag and put it on the table.

Everyone looked around, only to see that the cloth bag was wrapped in this black stone.

"It's ......"

Someone recognized it at a glance and said suspiciously: "This is coal?" ”

Li Chengjiu cast his gaze, which was said by an old man who looked less than sixty years old.

He smiled and nodded, but everyone was even more confused.

That's how you're going to solve it?

We have this thing in several places in southern Xinjiang, I know it can burn fire, but don't you know that it can also kill itself?

Do you want to sell this thing in Kyoto?

Do you dare to sell and someone dare to buy?

A series of questions appeared in everyone's minds, and Li Chengjiu saw it in his eyes, and did not explain, but took out another thing from another pocket.

The object is still wrapped in a cloth bag.

When it is opened, a gray stone is revealed.

Everyone frowned, but they didn't know what it was, and they looked at each other, only to find that no one knew.

However, Lee's movements did not stop.

I saw him take out another thing from the inner pocket of his clothes again.

As soon as this thing came out, everyone present widened their eyes, and their eyes were full of shock!

This is......
