Chapter 1292

"Mr. Matt, if I went to the Western Regions, will your monarch accept me as an Easterner?"

Song Changji asked after adding a cup of tea to Matt.

"We are a country that advocates the strong. You are the most successful businessman in Daning. If you go to our country, you will definitely be warmly treated by the monarch!"

Although the tone of the Daning language that Matt spoke is a bit strange and the pronunciation of some characters is not very accurate, there is still no problem understanding it.

"Will your monarch warmly entertain a businessman?"

Song Changji was very surprised!

Because in the Daning Dynasty, merchants were the class with the least social status. Although he is now the richest man in Jiangnan, according to the laws and regulations of the Daning Dynasty, even if he sees a seventh-rank county magistrate, he has to kneel down and bow down!

As for the monarch’s warm hospitality, I dare not even dream of it!

"Yes! In our country, successful merchants and generals who conquer cities and lands are both strong people, and they are no different in their status! If Mr. Song is willing to go to our country, with your financial resources and super business ability, he will not only be warmly welcomed by our monarch, but may also be awarded the title of nobles by our monarch!"

Matt and Song Changji are often in contact with each other and are already familiar with each other. Knowing what Song Changji wants most, he deliberately used this to tempt him!

Sure enough, after hearing Matt's last words, Song Changji was immediately moved!

I don’t know if it’s because he has become the richest man in Jiangnan. He is no longer interested in money, but he is always worried about the fact that he was forced to interrupt the imperial examination because he was falsely accused!

Because of the ancestral system of Daning that values ​​agriculture and neglects commerce, after he embarked on the path of business, it means that in the Daning Dynasty, he would never be able to become an official again, let alone be awarded a title!

Not only him, but also his descendants were marked as "merchants", so they were unable to enter the officialdom and could only become a pariah in Daning!

This is also the reason why he is nearly thirty years old, but never marryes wives and concubines and has no children!

Because he doesn't want his descendants to suffer such pain!

But now, Matt pointed out a brand new path for him!

Go to the Western Regions!

In the Western Regions, a successful businessman actually had the same social status as a general who conquered cities and lands. He could not only receive warm hospitality from the monarch, but also be awarded titles and enter the aristocratic class!

For him, this temptation is too great!

In fact, last autumn, when he was drinking with Matt, he heard Matt say that merchants had a high status in the Western Regions, and in a sense, the Western Regions were even in the hands of merchants.

At that moment, he was determined to go to the Western Regions to develop!

However, he just thought about it for a while and did not really want to develop in the Western Regions.

At first, he could not be sure whether what Matt said was true or false.

Secondly, his assets are all in Daning. It is extremely difficult to deal with so many assets and carry them to the Western Regions! Even if he wants to leave, those who regard him as a money tree will definitely not let him go!
