Chapter 154: Yingtian Chamber of Commerce!
"It's all done according to the requirements of the sixth master, but some changes have been made." Shen Dabao said with a smile.
Zhu Jun smiled, Shen Dong'er is really exquisite, this recruitment symposium seems to have the taste of his world.
"Let's go, don't let those people wait!" Zhu Jun came to the hall of the main building of Jubao Building, where more than 200 merchants were sitting, most of them were merchants from eastern Zhejiang, and a small number were merchants from Yingtian and Huaixi.
It can be seen that the businessmen of eastern Zhejiang control the economic lifeline.
Zhu Jun wants to use these people to make blood for the Mandate of Heaven organization, silver is not omnipotent, and it is impossible without silver!
However, these more than 200 businessmen are not many.
In his early years, the old Zhu Jiandu Yingtian, and moved more than 4,000 wealthy businessmen from Gusu, Hangzhou and other places to Yingtian.
These two hundred merchants are only a part, or rather, a representative of them.
All called over, he doesn't have that much face.
"Ladies and gentlemen, His Royal Highness King Wu has come down!" Shen Dabao hurriedly reminded.
Followed by everyone got up one after another and saluted Zhu Jun, these people did not kneel, but arched their hands, as if they looked down on Zhu Jun.
Zhu Jun glanced at them with a smile, but he didn't care, but arched his hand and said, "I've kept everyone waiting, I'm sorry!" ”
Everyone looked at Zhu Jun, the crazy prince, with coldness and curiosity in their eyes, but more of them were banter.
Zhu Jun settled Li Yanxi and the others, walked on the stage, and said: "Thank you for coming to this recruitment symposium, the purpose of the symposium, I think Shen Dabao has already told you."
I won't go into too much detail, I'll pick up the main points!
First, I would like to take this opportunity to establish the Yingtian Chamber of Commerce, with the purpose of helping each other and sharing resources.
With Wu Wangfu as a link, everyone's difficulties in business and trade can be reported to Wu Wangfu, and I will report to the prince or Your Majesty in the form of a fold! ”
Hearing this, everyone's expressions changed, and they immediately looked at each other.
Shen Dabao called them over, but he didn't say this, he just said that he would help the victims, and King Wu asked for some official positions outside the staff, so that everyone could share some pressure for the imperial court.
It is not only for the sake of the Shen family's face, but also for the sake of the official position outside the staff.
"It's all quiet, I know you have a lot of questions, wait until this king finishes speaking!" Zhu Jun patted the case, couldn't help but increase the volume, and even changed the title, "Second, the purpose of establishing the Yingtian Chamber of Commerce is to wash away the label on the businessman's body.
This dynasty did not prohibit the Shang Jia Imperial Examination, which can be said to have set a precedent, but the position of Shang Jia was still awkward.
No treachery, no business, forgetting righteousness for profit, these are all labels on businessmen.
Shinong industry and commerce, business is at the bottom.
This seems ridiculous to the King.
No agriculture is unstable, no work is not strong, no business is not rich.
The three complement each other.
The king hopes that the world can be recognizant of the merchants! ”
These words went directly to the hearts of everyone present.
The world hates the rich, and the officials regard the rich businessmen as big fat sheep who are oppressed, and derogatory labels are pressed on them one by one.
Even if they don't do anything bad, they are 'profiteers' in the eyes of the world!
"Third, strengthen the country with business, follow the footsteps of the imperial court, and strive to be a benevolent businessman and good businessman in the eyes of the people. The Chamber of Commerce will evaluate the contributions of its members every month, and the top three contributions will give you the opportunity to meet the Prince.
Fourth, the more people are hired, the commercial tax will be reduced, and the details will be issued at that time.
Fifth, help leading enterprises and give them financial and resource help......"
Sixth, merchants who have made outstanding contributions will be rewarded by the imperial court......"
Zhu Junlin always said more than ten things, and each of them hit the weakness of everyone present.
Meeting the crown prince, reducing taxes, getting help from capital and resource providers, improving status, and business protection are all real benefits.
It is no exaggeration to say that once implemented, the environment in which they do business will be greatly improved.
Li Yanxi frowned, it was not a good thing to be too kind to these businessmen.
Li Wanqiu also looked puzzled.
At this time, a bold businessman asked: "The grass people dare to ask His Royal Highness King Wu to meet the prince and reduce taxes, are these all true?" ”
"Isn't it true that this king came here with such fanfare, what are you doing?" Zhu Jun said: "I won't tell you, you are all big businessmen with a net worth of 10,000 taels, and my original intention is to find those small businessmen and help them."
But whether you are in business or being an official, you need a role model.
This king wants to lift you up and set an example to the little merchants.
The last one is to support local micro-businessmen to start their own businesses. (In the case of Hongwu, commerce is generally monopolistic, and the commercial tax is okay, but after Wanli, the commercial tax is particularly heavy, and small and medium-sized businessmen are extremely miserable)"
Zhu Jun glanced at them, "This stall, this king has spread it out for you, whether you want to do it seriously, whether you want to rise or not, it's up to you."
This king is by no means reluctant, but if he joins the Yingtian Chamber of Commerce, he must be subject to conditions.
Whenever a recruitment contract is signed, it must be strictly followed.
You have all read the contract, and you know what the constraints are.
For now, if you feel worried, you can always go, and the gate is behind you.
This king can guarantee that he will never be held accountable! ”
Everyone present was silent, originally they all came with an attitude of indifference.
But right now, Zhu Jun is spreading the stall so big, and behind him, he is like the prince.
This has to make them cautious.
"The grass people have a small business, so they won't participate!" The person who spoke was a man who was nearly forty years old, and this person spoke Huaixi dialect, and when he heard it, he knew that he was a Huaixi businessman.
"Go!" Zhu Jun pointed to the door.
The man didn't say a word, and walked out without saying a word.
As soon as he left, the other Huaixi merchants also stood up, and after a while, they were finished.
The rest are almost all merchants from eastern Zhejiang, which shows how fierce the competition between eastern Zhejiang and Huaixi is, even in business, they do not cooperate.
Shen Dabao also wiped the sweat on his forehead, he didn't expect these people to give no face, he was anxious and angry in his heart, "Sixth master, I ......"
"It doesn't matter, everyone has their own ambitions, so why force it!" Zhu Jun smiled and waved his hand, he looked at the others, "There is still a little time, you think about it more, even if you are all gone, this king doesn't care, I just forgot to say that the Wu Wangfu will give out 200,000 taels of silver as the operating capital of the Yingtian Chamber of Commerce."
Anyone who joins the association has the opportunity to get the support of the Chamber of Commerce, and the support that this king said is not just verbal support! ”
When everyone heard this, they were stunned.
Two hundred thousand taels of silver?
God, there are so many people here, and how many people have so much net worth?
Just thinking about it, the soldiers of Wu Wangfu carried all the boxes of silver in.
This mountain of silver was piled up in front of the people, and it almost blinded their eyes!
Even with breathing, it's all stagnant!
