Liu Mingzhi lowered his head and took a sip of tea casually, then smiled and raised his eyes to look at Zhang Kuang who was puffing away at the opposite side.
"Uncle, I can understand your thoughts, young master.
So in your opinion, on top of the matter of establishing the Joint Chamber of Commerce, how should I arrange Krich’s position in a more appropriate way, Master?”
Seeing Young Master Liu directly posing the question to him, Zhang Kuang frowned slightly, turned his head and blew out the light smoke out of the car window.
"Zhi'er, I'm going to make a bold statement.
This is what I think. In the future, after the joint chamber of commerce is successfully established, you can temporarily arrange a vice-president position for Creech for a period of time.
As for the position of president, we will temporarily arrange for one of our own people to fill it.
Then it will take a year and a half, or a year or two.
When we are sure that Creech really has no dissatisfaction with our Dalong Celestial Empire, it will not be too late for you to let him serve as the president of the United Chamber of Commerce.
This method is the safest method."
After listening to Liu Mingzhi's arrogant answer, he was silent for a moment with his eyes rolling slightly, and he took a small sip of tea from the tea cup in his hand.
"Temporarily, I will assume the position of vice president and observe it for a year and a half, or a year or two.
Wait until you are sure that he is truly loyal to our Dalong Celestial Empire, and then let him serve as the real president?"
Listening to Young Master Liu's slightly rhetorical words, Zhang Kuang raised his hand and casually fanned the smoke in front of him twice.
"Yes, that's exactly it."
Liu Mingzhi smiled and nodded. After silently swallowing the tea leaves that he had been chewing for a while, he turned sideways and turned his gaze to Nangong Ye with a smile on his face.
"Uncle, what are you thinking in your heart?"
When Nangong Ye heard this, he immediately turned to face the window and blew out the light smoke from his mouth.
"Return to your majesty, old minister..."
Young Master Liu heard what Nangong Ye called him, and before he could finish the rest of his words, he immediately waved his hands with a look of helplessness on his face.
"Oh, uncle, just like what Uncle Zhang Kuang said before, there are no outsiders in the carriage.
So, don't open your mouth, Your Majesty, His Majesty's, and shut up, my old minister, my old minister's.
Besides, now that we are away from home, it is not appropriate for you to keep calling me Your Majesty, uncle.
You, just like Uncle Zhang Kuang, just call me Zhi'er, Mingzhi, or Xiaozi."
Nangong Ye has been dealing with Young Master Liu for decades, and he knows his character well, so naturally he no longer insists on anything.
"Hehehe, okay, then I will call you Zhi'er."
Seeing Nangong Ye say this, Young Master Liu immediately nodded happily.
"Hey, that's right.
Uncle, please tell me what you are thinking first."
After Nangong Ye gently took a puff of dry cigarette, he said loudly and solemnly: "Zhi'er, regarding this matter, I have some different ideas from Brother Zhang."
Young Master Liu raised his eyebrows, his eyes showing curiosity.
"Oh? I'd like to hear the details."
"Zhi'er, although my thoughts in my heart are slightly different from Brother Zhang's, if you really think about it carefully, they are still very similar in the end.
What I mean is that you can directly let Crich serve as the president of the United Chamber of Commerce.
However, in order to avoid Crich, he did something to deceive others, or developed some undue disobedience.
We must send one or two trustworthy people from our side to serve as the vice president of the Joint Chamber of Commerce to supervise and observe Creech's actions.
Zhi'er, the joint chamber of commerce you want to form is not just a chamber of commerce!
On a smaller scale, Zhi'er, the chamber of commerce you plan to set up is, on the surface, just a large and small caravan from various countries, as well as many small and large merchants united together to quickly trade goods and communicate with each other.
It’s just whether there is a chamber of commerce or not.
However, if we look at it on a larger scale, this so-called joint chamber of commerce is not simple.
Speaking more broadly, this chamber of commerce is the bridge between our Dalong Celestial Dynasty and the other Western countries when it controls the two countries of Great Food and Tianzhu!
Brother Zhang also said just now that Crich was the head of a caravan from the Roman side.
His own foundation and most of his inheritance are in the Roman state.
However, the main overall situation in Rome is currently not under the control of our soldiers on the Western Expedition.
Zhi'er, you let a person like Creech, who is not under our control, serve as the president of the United Chamber of Commerce and monopolize all the rights in the chamber of commerce.
No matter which angle you look at it, or which aspect you consider, it seems a little inappropriate."
As Nangong Ye spoke, he held the tobacco bag in his hand and took two puffs of tobacco.
"Zhi'er, it's not that I, Brother Zhang, and I are two old guys with suspicious personalities, but there are some things that we have to guard against.
As the saying goes, don't be afraid of ten thousand, just be afraid of the eventuality.
Among us, who can guarantee that Crich will be loyal to our Dalong Celestial Empire?
Non-my family, its heart must be different.
This long-standing saying goes beyond just saying it!
It's better to be a villain now and take precautions in advance than to get angry and clean up the mess while cursing when something unexpected happens in the future, right?
Just in case, uncle, I suggest you be on the safe side."
After Nangong Ye's long words came to an end, Zhang Kuangguang hurriedly echoed in a deep voice.
"Yes, yes, yes, Zhi'er, Brother Nangong, what he said was so polite.
As the saying goes, you must not have the intention to harm others, and you must have the intention to guard against others.
It is ultimately good for us to be prepared in advance.
There is a saying that goes well, be careful and you will never make a big mistake.
Zhi'er, as the king of a country, you want to reuse talents. Brother Nangong and I have no objection.
But! This person has a deep heart, so you still have to be more careful when you should be careful.
As far as the current situation is concerned, no matter what I just suggested, let Creech serve as the vice president first.
The idea is to wait until he passes our test before letting him serve as the president of the Joint Chamber of Commerce.
As Brother Nangong said just now, he can directly let Krich serve as the president of the Joint Chamber of Commerce, but he must send one or two of our own people to serve as the vice president to supervise and supervise him.
Suggestions for observation.
These two suggestions from us two old men are somewhat different but ultimately lead to the same goal. They are currently the safest approaches."
After listening to the words of persuasion from Zhang Kuang and Nangong Ye, Young Master Liu casually put down the tea cup in his hand, a flash of disappointment quickly flashed deep in his eyes.
He did not deny that Zhang Kuang and Nangong Ye were thinking for their own sake, and even more so for the Great Dragon Celestial Dynasty.
It's a pity that the two of them don't understand what they really think in their hearts.
"well."
Young Master Liu sighed secretly in his heart, and looked at Song Qing, Zhang Kuang, and Nangong Ye who were all puffing away in front of them, and habitually took out the pipes from his waist.
However, when he just opened the cigarette bag containing tobacco in his hand and was about to pinch out a handful of tobacco from the bag.
suddenly.
As if he had thought of something, Young Master Liu immediately casually placed the tobacco bag in his hand on the low table in front of him, then reached out and grabbed a small melon seed from the saucer on the low table.
"Click."
After a soft sound, Young Master Liu casually threw the melon seed shell between his fingers out of the car window, and looked at Song Qing opposite the old god with a faint smile.
"Brother."
"Hey, third brother?"
Liu Mingzhi took another melon seed, looked at Song Qing with a chuckle and asked loudly: "Brother, now the two uncles have finished expressing their thoughts.
On your side, shouldn’t it be time to share your own thoughts?”
After hearing Young Master Liu's question, Song Qing frowned slightly and remained silent for a moment, then casually picked up the tea cup on the low table.
"Third brother, what is that?
To be honest, regarding the matter of becoming the president of the United Chamber of Commerce, I really don’t have any good ideas in my heart.
However, as a brother, I do have a few simple words to say to you.
That is, I don’t know whether to talk about it or not?”
Young Master Liu quickly spit out the melon seed shell on the tip of his tongue out the car window, and cheerfully raised his hand to signal to Song Qing.
"Haha, hahaha, big brother, there is nothing we can't talk about between brothers.
You have something to say, but it doesn’t matter.”
Song Qing nodded with a smile and took a sip of tea, then casually put the teacup in his hand back on the low table.
"Third brother, I heard what you and your two uncles were talking about for so long.
Now, my brother, I only have a few simple words in my heart.
It is not important who will serve as the president of this so-called United Chamber of Commerce. What is important is who will belong to Rome, Persia, Frank, the sun never sets and other countries in the future.
At the same time, who is under the control?
In other words, as the two uncles just said, the position of president of the United Chamber of Commerce is a bridge between our Great Dragon Celestial Empire and the Western countries.
Regarding this point, what the two uncles said is indeed very reasonable.
But, here we come again.
Does it really matter who serves as the communicator on this bridge?
In a nutshell, as far as the current situation in Western countries is concerned.
The identity of the person communicating on this bridge is not an important issue at all, let alone an important matter.
What matters is who built the bridge and who ultimately walked on it.
This point is the most critical and also the most important.”
As soon as Song Qing finished speaking, he looked calmly at Zhang Kuang and Song Qing, who were sitting on his left and right.
"Third brother, regarding this matter, as a brother, this is all I can think of."
Liu Mingzhi's eyes suddenly brightened after listening to what Song Qing said, which seemed ordinary but actually contained profound meaning.
Immediately, the corner of his mouth involuntarily raised a faint smile, turned his head and spat out the melon seed shells in his mouth out the car window.
He is indeed a good brother who has been with me day and night for decades. When it comes to understanding what is in my heart, he knows my true thoughts best.
Crazy and Nangong Ye saw the change in Young Master Liu's expression and immediately quickly recalled what Song Qing had just said.
Suddenly.
Zhang Kuang and Nangong Ye quickly looked at each other, vaguely seeming to understand something.
Liu Mingzhi took a long breath out the car window, smiled and peeled off a melon seed with his nails and threw it into his mouth.
"Two uncles."
"Hey, Zhi'er?"
"Zhi'er?"
Young Master Liu looked at the two brothers Zhang Kuang and Nangong Ye who seemed to have understanding, and happily chewed the melon seeds between his teeth.
"Uncles, I have a question for you, young master."
"Zhi'er, if you have any questions, just ask them. I will definitely tell you everything I know."
Nangong Ye waited until the words left Zhang Kuang's mouth and immediately echoed them loudly.
"Zhi'er, the same is true for me.
If you have any questions, just ask them directly."
Liu Mingzhi chuckled and smacked his lips a few times, adjusting his sitting posture with a slight raised brow and a smile.
"Two uncles, you two are veteran generals in the army who have experienced many battles.
One day in the future, if I, the young master, suddenly send a weak scholar who does not understand the art of military warfare, or a civil servant who has never come into contact with military affairs at all, to supervise the army over you two veteran generals who have experienced hundreds of battles.
So, how will you two, veteran generals who have been on the battlefield and experienced hundreds of battles, react when the time comes?"
Zhang Kuang's body trembled, and he frowned subconsciously.
"This! This! This! I...I..."
Nangong Ye's expression also changed, and he couldn't help but frown.
"Zhi'er, isn't it a joke to let an outsider command an expert? Isn't it taking things that are related to the safety of my court to be child's play?"
Liu Mingzhi saw the changes in the expressions on Zhang Kuang and Nangong Ye's faces, and smiled lightly as he picked up the tea cup on the low table.
"A layman commanding an expert is a joke, and he is making fun of military aircraft matters.
It seems that you two uncles also understand such a great gift!"
"Zhi'er."
"Zhi'er, this! This! This! This!"
Liu Mingzhi chuckled, nodded and took a sip of the cooled tea. He adjusted his sitting posture lazily and leaned against the car next to him with a smile on his face.
“A layman commanding an expert is nothing more than a joke, and it is nothing more than treating Da Shi as his daughter-in-law.
Such a simple truth, you two are very clear in your hearts.
Then, you two tell me, this young master.
Among the soldiers of our Western Expedition, who is well versed in business?"
