The Pastoral Life of a Reborn Farmer

Chapter 130

The next day, Shen Ling invited almost all the famous merchants in Huaizhou to meet at a certain restaurant under his property. Everyone was persecuted by Mrs. Yao, even those who had not been bullied at the door were panic-stricken. Seeing Shen Ling's invitation, They all went happily, hoping to work together to come up with a solution.

At the banquet, Shen Ling criticized Yao shi for being hateful along with everyone, and repeated what he said at home yesterday. In short, he has a backer, and he has a lot of backers, so anyone who wants to continue messing around with him will follow him.

Although some people in the crowd were very hesitant about the fact that Shen Ling was able to step on two boats, but seeing that most of them could only unite with Shen Ling in order to protect themselves, they had no choice but to follow the trend. After all, if they did not follow Shen Ling must be the first to be used by the Yao family. If you follow Shen Ling, you can't blame everyone. Even if something really happens, there are so many of them, as long as they follow the trend and make a fool of themselves, Also be safe and sound.

Thinking about it this way, everyone agreed with Shen Ling's intention and was willing to give up part of the shares to Shen Ling to please the third prince and Mr. Fu, so as to avoid being seized by others, so Shen Ling naturally readily agreed.

The banquet was in full swing, but Shen Ling suddenly sighed and said: "People say that in the state of Jin, Jinzhou merchants are the most wealthy in the world, and my Huaizhou merchants are far behind. Why did the Yao family not go to Jinzhou to grab people's property, but came to bully us? What? We obviously don’t show our reputation and wealth. To put it bluntly, we in Huaizhou are mostly common things such as grain, cloth, wine, pulp, and porcelain. How can it compare to the magnificent, precious and exquisite industries in Jinzhou? Have you taken a fancy to us? Probably we are weaker and more bully!"

Shen Ling sighed and shook his head, everyone felt sorry for them, and their mood was a little depressed. It is true that Yao Shi did not go to Jinzhou, but he came to Huaizhou to bully them.

Shen Laoqi knew the elegant meaning when he heard the sound of strings, and quickly answered: "In the final analysis, Jinzhou's industries are more exquisite and luxurious, such as silk jewelry, gold and silver jewelry, and pens, inks, papers and inkstones, etc., which are naturally quite popular among nobles in the court. So each has its own support, most of the business we do in Huaizhou is the business of ordinary people, it is difficult to attract the attention of the nobles, and we have been bullied so far when we can find support."

Everyone became even more depressed, and Shen Ling said again: "I heard that not everyone in Jinzhou can seek nobles to rely on, but Jinzhou has something called a chamber of commerce. Supporting and relying on each other is the only way to do this, and the Chamber of Commerce is powerful, so it is natural to find suitable noble people to help, so as not to be bullied."

Everyone's expressions changed a little, Shen Ling already said: "Shen Ling is not talented, it happened that all Huai merchants gathered here today, and they are willing to make this suggestion to establish my Huaizhou Chamber of Commerce. In the future, all the bosses will unite, help each other, and support each other. If there is bullying by outsiders, everyone will unite to fight against foreign enemies. The chamber of commerce elects the president, and those who are capable live there, just like the Jinzhou chamber of commerce. The president of the chamber of commerce should be elected by all the people in the chamber of commerce. First, conquer people with virtue, fight internally, and resist incoming enemies externally, we will definitely do our best to support the president, what do you think?"

"Boss Shen has a great idea!"

Shen Ling's various actions today have caused others to consciously change the name of Xiao Boss Shen. Brother Shen and the others dare not address him. After all, most people are still not familiar with Shen Ling, so they can only be called Boss Shen. Seven, who cares about him at this time, what seniority and qualifications are not important at this time.

"Boss Shen's idea is brilliant! It just so happens that everyone joins the chamber of commerce, so the chamber of commerce will naturally be powerful, and I think it will always be blessed by some noble people!"

"We are business people who are not involved in government affairs. After the establishment of the chamber of commerce, we will honestly pay tribute and dividends to all parties. I think it will surely lead to long-term stability, just like Boss Shen, who sits firmly on the Diaoyutai."

"If someone bullies you! All the members of the Huaizhou Chamber of Commerce will be enemies with him!"

Everyone expressed their opinions one after another, but no one said that this opinion was not good. Everyone, no matter if they were radicals or conservatives, thought that the Chamber of Commerce was an excellent idea, but those with far-sightedness had discovered that although this Chamber of Commerce was a good thing, it was also a good idea. It is easy to become a gun barrel for others and a sharp weapon to promote others. For example, Shen Ling has been a businessman since ancient times. The only imperial merchant in the business, I am afraid that he is already the first president of the established chamber of commerce!

Even if these people had opinions in their hearts, they did not dare to refute it after seeing everyone's efforts to promote it and the intrusion of foreign enemies.

Shen Ling was just as these people thought, the purpose was to be the president of the chamber of commerce, plus the bonus that everyone offered on their own initiative.

"It seems that everyone thinks this idea is very good. Today is a good opportunity. Why don't we settle this matter and deal with Yao's earlier. Seniors, it is an honor for Shen Ling to be in my place today. Witnessing this grand event in Huaizhou, witnessing the establishment of the Chamber of Commerce, buddy, bring Baihua wine, everyone, the newly brewed Baihua wine is just in line with the idea of ​​colorful flowers competing for beauty, Shen Ling is here to make a joke .”

"Boss Shen is being polite. Boss Shen is not stingy with good wine. We are lucky!"

"I think Boss Shen is young and promising, he is righteous and benevolent, and he is the first imperial merchant from Huaizhou. He should be the first president of Huaizhou Chamber of Commerce."

"I agree." Everyone nodded.

Shen Ling has an absolute advantage. All the people here are a group of old foxes. They are already pointing at Shen Ling to help, so they are not willing to cause any trouble. Even if they know that Shen Ling understands that he intends to win the position of president, they are all moved It's endless, but he can't force himself to stand out at this time, he can only support Shen Ling as the leader.

Shen Ling seemed to wave his hands in embarrassment, "Seniors, I am a junior in terms of seniority. I have not been in business for a long time, and the chamber of commerce is a big deal. How can I find someone like me who has no experience and can't do things? I have to recommend someone who is truly capable and capable. The boss is."

So if there is no one here who has both ability and political integrity, and ability to do something, then he can only lick the house, Shen Ling smiled, if these people really recommend others, then let that person go to Yao for them. up.

At this moment, who doesn't feel like a bright mirror in his heart, and who can claim that he is capable of doing things in front of Shen Ling at this time?Everyone bowed their hands and elected Shen Ling again. "Boss Shen is being polite. Aspirations do not depend on age, and talent has nothing to do with age. It is precisely because Boss Shen has been able to build such a large family business not long after starting a business, that we trust Boss Shen's ability!"

"That is, there is no one else except Boss Shen."

"Boss Shen is modest and benevolent, and he is the perfect candidate for the president. Boss Shen, please don't refuse again."

"Yes!"

Shen Ling declined twice more, until everyone was firm and everyone expressed their opinion, Shen Ling glanced at everyone to confirm that no one was silent, then nodded helplessly, "Okay! Since the seniors encouraged and recommended Shen Ling Ling is the first chairman, so Shen Ling can only lick his face and live. I also hope that everyone can really help me as I said today, and we will work together to make the Huaizhou Chamber of Commerce a good one. Let Huaizhou merchants catch up with Jinzhou merchants."

"Okay!" Many people had internal injuries to Shen Ling in their hearts. They couldn't recommend it once, and they had to toss it two or three times. They were also very aggrieved!At this moment, I still want to applaud and cheer for Shen Ling. Moreover, they did say that they were willing to help the president, just to push Shen Ling to the top. In the end, Shen Ling actually grabbed their words and signaled that they should all be honest and obedient. , they had to applaud and applaud, really aggrieved!

"Since this is the case, Shen Ling will definitely take on the responsibility of the president of the chamber of commerce, and will deal with the Yao family to the end. Don't worry, everyone, Mr. Fu and I have been friends for many years. Mr. Fu loves to drink my family's Bifang wine, and even I was recommended to the emperor, so I became an imperial merchant. Later, I also gave bonuses to Mr. Fu in exchange for Mr. Fu’s protection. I think Yao and Mr. Fu are in the same camp. If I go to talk about peace, there will be some relaxation leeway."

Among the people present, those who were persecuted by Yao’s family suddenly brightened when they heard the words, and some stood up gratefully and cupped their hands to Shen Ling, "Thank you, president! We must be very grateful to the president. I will do my best to help the president."

Shen Ling raised her hand to return the salute, motioning for everyone to sit down.

Shen Ling was originally from the lineage of the three princes. There is no one in this world who can really step on two boats without capsizing. First, the second is not to mention Mr. Fu, these old foxes will not play with him at all, and the third is that the Mu Mansion is the capital of Huaizhou, and the Mu Mansion is still related to Mr. Fu at this moment, even if it is in private. It's a bit dirty, but it hasn't reached the point of surfacing. In the territory of the Mu Mansion, mentioning that you are an old man, you can always get some face protection.

As for his private nature, he doesn't even count on Elder Fu's protection. His real trump card is the third prince. He has already written to the third prince to ask for an expert bodyguard to protect him. After all, Elder Fu only took his money, not He really promised to protect him, but he took advantage of Mr. Fu's collection of money time and time again to express that he was blessed by Mr. Fu, and even used his name to make trouble outside and attract Yao's hatred. It would be strange if Mr. Fu let him go. .

He is not afraid of the struggle on the surface, playing tricks, he has never been afraid of anyone, he is desperate to fight for power, he still has the third prince's token to save his life, and the third prince is the backing to save him, the only thing he is worried about now It's just that the opponent directly used a master to kill him, so there must be guards.
