Volume 4, Chapter 44, Wooing and Dividing

The reason why the Yunxia City Business Association Alliance has such an influence is that they are the most accessible business association organization on the border of Izumo County, and they are also the only businessmen who have a way to connect Liangzhou and Shazhou for commercial trade!

Just imagine, Liangzhou and Shazhou have always been at odds with each other, which naturally greatly affects the normal business exchanges between the two sides, which also makes both sides desperately short of each other's special products. In such a situation, it is conceivable how much oil and water the commercial organizations that have mastered the trade routes between the two places will have.

Whether it is the military or those wealthy families on the border of Izumo County, they all turn to the Yunxia City Business Association Alliance, which naturally makes the status of the Business Association Alliance rise and rise, and it can become one of the top forces in Yunxia City!

The head of the Yunxia City Business Association Alliance, named Xia Liangcai, is said to be a native of Yunxia City, originally just an inconspicuous small businessman, but he has a shrewd mind and very clever means of doing business, and soon gathered huge wealth and became one of the members of the Yunxia City Business Association Alliance. Since Xia Liangcai joined the Alliance of Business Associations, under his superb means of operation, the major businesses have become unprecedentedly united, it can really be said that everyone has money to earn together, and opened the door to trade with Shazhou, which suddenly made the Alliance of Business Associations famous, and Xia Liangcai deservedly became the chairman of the Yunxia City Business Association Alliance!

Don't think that Xia Liangcai has done so many great things, he must be an old man who is not young, but in fact, he is not even fifty years old now, and he is in the prime of life! If there is any deficiency in Xia Liangcai, it is that he is not a cultivator, he has an extremely intelligent mind, but he does not have the qualifications to become a cultivator!

But even so, with the body of a mere mortal, Xia Liang can stand in this position today, which is enough to show that he is extraordinary. Moreover, it was precisely because Xia Liang was an ordinary person that he had a very high reputation among the common people, thinking that he could become the representative of the vast number of mortals and wrestle with those high-ranking cultivators!

Why is the "Renjun" paragraph regarded as a Buddha of all families? Isn't it because he has done the great cause of resisting a strong enemy as an ordinary person? Although Xia Liangcai's reputation cannot be compared with that of "Renjun," the reason why people seek him after him is similar to worshipping "Renjun"!

It took a long time for Lei Ming to make a clear account of the four major forces in Yunxia City. And when Kong Ming first came to Yunxia City, what should he do to gain a firm foothold in Yunxia City and become the fifth pole of Yunxia City?

Others may not have the idea of becoming a leader, because Yunxia City is the hometown of "Renjun", no matter how powerful outsiders are, can they still build more power than the Duan family in this Yunxia City?

Not to mention the Duan family, even if it is the Yunxia faction that has been inherited for thousands of years, how can it be underestimated? As for the alliance of military and business associations, none of them are fuel-efficient lamps!

There are indeed a lot of problems in front of Kong Ming, but what kind of character is Kong Ming? He is specialized in solving problems! When he decided to come to Yunxia City, he just wanted to create a situation, if he was just satisfied with the status quo, why did he leave the imperial capital?

Seeing that everyone was thoughtful, Kong Ming smiled slightly, and said loudly: "The complicated situation is in front of us, as a newcomer, how to open up this situation?

Tie Suxin's beautiful eyes spread, swept a glance at everyone, and said clumsily at this time: "Since ancient times, if you want to fish in troubled waters between several forces, the most effective means is to win over and divide. The only unrival force in this Yunxia City is the Duan family, and as newcomers, we are really not suitable to stand on the opposite side of such a general force. And more importantly, the Duan family runs the family with poetry and books, and the idea of loyalty to the monarch is deep-rooted, and the descendants of the Duan family are the chief staff of the prince's East Palace, if the prince's side wants us to gain a firm foothold in Yunxia City, it will play a more or less helpful role. As long as you have the approval of the Duan family, at least you don't have to worry about not being able to integrate into the local potential!"

Tie Suxin's analysis was reasonable and well-founded, and after hearing this, Eugene hurriedly applauded on the side and said: "What the Iron Maiden said is very true! It is worthy of being the person next to the second young master, and sure enough, like the second young master, this is all born Su Hui! The little old man is not talented, and he also feels that it is imperative to win over the Duan family and establish a good relationship with the Duan family." When he was still in the imperial capital, Xiao Lao'er had been thinking about this matter, so when he participated in the 'Wanbao Club', Xiao Lao'er saw a few more suitable things, so he took pictures of them on his own. Now that he has come to Yunxia City, if he wants to visit the Duan family, then the things taken by Xiao Lao'er can also come in handy. ”

Eugene said as he opened his storage bag and pulled out two things.

These two things were auctioned off by Eugene when Kong Ming allowed Eugene and others to bid on their own during the "Wanbao Club" period, and even spent hundreds of thousands of gold coins! But no one expected that Eugene had calculated to such an extent that the things he auctioned at the "Wanbao Club" were actually for today's use!

Kong Mingha smiled, and arched his hand towards Eugene: "It is really a great blessing for the younger generation to be able to get You Lao's help! As long as we work together, are we afraid that we will not be able to create a world that belongs to us in Yunxia City?"

The two things that Eugene took out, one was a very luxuriously packaged long brocade box, but when it was opened, it was a brush that looked a little old, and even the wolf hair on the tip of the pen was half bald.

There is nothing surprising about this thing, and it is by no means a Yuan Bing spiritual weapon, just an ordinary old brush, but the origin is quite extraordinary, and it has been identified as the brush used by the former "Renjun" Duan Ziwen when he was studying at the Confucian Academy.

"Renjun" was born in a poor family, even if this brush was half-bald, he was reluctant to throw it away, and later the brush was sealed by the academy to encourage future generations of poor students. As for the whole of this brush, it will appear at auction, and it is also to raise funds to support the education of poor students!

If all of them had to be funded by the Confucian family, no matter how big the Confucian family's business was, it would not be able to withstand such expenses, so the academies in various places had the function of raising their own funds and could not blindly rely on the relief of the Confucian family.

The relics of "Renjun" are rare, but as long as they are auctioned at a good price, it means that more than 1,000 poor students can be funded to complete their studies. I believe that there is a spirit underneath the "Renjun" and will approve of this.

Eugene acted spicy and took a picture of this "Renjun" relic, as long as he gave this thing to the Duan family, he was afraid that the Duan family would not be impressed by Kong Ming and others?

As for the other thing, it is a beautifully packaged wooden box containing three old letters, also written by "Renjun" himself, and also the remains of his correspondence with his classmates and friends when he was a student.

After the name of "Renjun" resounded in Liangzhou, these handwritten letters naturally became a rarity, and could even be regarded as heirlooms by some ordinary people. However, there will always be unscrupulous people in future generations, and it is normal for these letters to be auctioned off.

If you take pictures of these letters and give them to the Duan family, you will naturally be able to get the Duan family's courtesy, plus the brush that "Renjun" once used, with these two gifts in hand, you can be sure that you can establish a good relationship with the Duan family!

Moreover, the Duan family has always been a family heirloom with poetry and books, plus "Renjun" also has the experience of studying at the Confucian Academy, which makes it not difficult for Kong Ming to have a good relationship with the Duan family.

Of course, the descendants of "Renjun" are not necessarily all real humble gentlemen like "Renjun", but there will always be scruples about face-saving things, even if they are dissatisfied with the power of the Kong family to intervene in Yunxia City, they will not openly contradict Kong Ming!

As long as the Duan family shows an attitude of accepting Kong Ming and his party, it means that Kong Ming has won the hearts of the people, and at least he will gain a firm foothold in public opinion. As long as you can successfully gain a foothold in Yunxia City, are you afraid that there will be no chance to open up the situation in the future?

At this time, Tie Suxin also showed a look of admiration for Eugene, and praised coquettishly: "You Lao is far-sighted, which really makes the little woman feel admired! With the gift prepared by You Lao, it shouldn't be a problem to win over the Duan family." However, if we want to establish our own power in Yunxia City, we also need to find a hostile force that we can fight! If we don't weaken the power of a certain side, how can we gain space to expand our territory? The young master has the rank of general of Dangkou, but he does not have any foundation in the military for the time being, so it is not appropriate to make enemies in the military so quickly. As for the alliance of business associations, no matter how powerful it is, it is only a non-governmental organization, and with the aristocratic status of the young master, if it competes with the alliance of business associations, it will only be regarded as too small. In this way, there is only one Yunxia faction left to deal with the power that is really worth dealing with!"

Kong Ming smiled slightly, and said: "The Yunxia faction is the number one faction in Izumo County, not to mention the strength in Yunxia City, even if it is in Izumo County, it is also a well-deserved number one!

Tie Su Xinlan was wise, and naturally knew that Kong Ming's question was a rhetorical question, so she smiled and said: "It is precisely because the strength of the Yunxia faction is the first in Izumo County that it is the most suitable for us to be our opponent! The reason is very simple, because in Liangzhou, the only one who can really be the master of the house is the Cangnan Empire! We take a piece of the Yunxia faction's power from it, and it is definitely a good thing that all the major power forces are happy to see it!"

Whether it's a monthly ticket, a recommendation vote or something else, only everyone's vote is the motivation for me to keep updating my codewords!
