After Liu Mingzhi walked out of the palace gate with a smile on his face, a group of major generals, led by Zhang Kuang, Nangong Ye, Yunchong, and Wanyan Chiezha, immediately saluted Young Master Liu in unison.
"I see you, Your Majesty, long live long live long live."
Liu Mingzhi smiled lightly and glanced at the dozen main generals a few steps away, then raised his hands cheerfully.
"No gifts, no gifts at all."
"Thank you, Your Majesty."
"Han Peng, Du Yu, Ming Feng, Yang Yun, and Liu Song are preparing tables and chairs in the palace. You guys should go over immediately and help him move the tables and chairs out."
"Yes, we obey."
Han Peng, Du Yu and others gave Young Master Liu a respectful hug and immediately ran straight to the palace.
Young Master Liu shook the jade fan in his hand and took a few small steps forward. He looked around at the group of generals around him with a faint smile.
"Uncle, uncle, uncle, brothers, have you all had breakfast?"
After hearing the questions that Master Liu asked him and others, all the generals nodded happily.
"Back to Your Majesty, I have all had breakfast."
When Liu Mingzhi heard this, he chuckled and nodded.
"Since you have all had breakfast, I will not prepare anything for you, young master."
"Jiang Lei, please run over immediately and notify someone to bring us some tea, fruits, nuts, seeds and other snacks as soon as possible."
"Yes, I will obey your orders."
As soon as Jiang Lei left, Liu Song, Du Yu and others walked out of the palace carrying tables and chairs.
"Master, the chair has been placed. Please sit down."
Liu Mingzhi lowered his eyes and glanced at the chair Liu Song placed next to him, smiled lightly and shook his head.
"Liu Song, Master, I don't want to sit in this chair. You go to the palace and bring my rocking chair out for me."
"Young master, please wait a moment. I will come back as soon as I go."
After Liu Song responded loudly, he hurriedly turned around and trotted towards the palace.
Young Master Liu opened his arms and twisted his body casually three or two times, and then looked at the two brothers Zhang Kuang and Nangong Ye standing on his left and right with a smile on his face.
"Uncle, have you drafted the specific regulations for establishing the Joint Chamber of Commerce?"
After hearing Young Master Liu's question, Nangong Ye nodded with a smile, then turned to look at Zhang Kuang standing opposite him.
"Brother Zhang."
Zhang Kuang nodded slightly, immediately took out a document from his sleeve, held it in both hands and brought it to Young Master Liu.
"Your Majesty, please take a look."
Young Master Liu smiled lightly, nodded, and stretched out his hand to take the document handed over by Zhang Kuang into his hand.
As soon as he got the documents, Liu Song's voice sounded behind him.
"Master, the rocking chair is here."
Liu Mingzhi gently closed the jade fan in his hand, and lay half-ly on the rocking chair behind him with the documents in his hand.
Immediately, he adjusted to a very comfortable posture, picked up a pillow and put it on the back of his neck.
"Uncle, uncle, uncle, brothers, please stop standing and sit down."
"Thank you, Your Majesty."
Zhang Kuang, Nangong Ye, Hu Yanyu, Cheng Kai and others thanked each other and immediately started to disperse towards the tables and chairs placed on both sides.
After Young Master Liu placed the Wanli Jiangshan jade fan on his stomach, he casually opened the documents in his hand and concentrated on reading the coherent contents.
Soon.
While Young Master Liu was concentrating on reading the contents of the document, Jiang Lei led a group of soldiers carrying trays towards the outside of the palace.
Jiang Lei saw Young Master Liu who was looking through the documents from a distance, and quickly raised his hand to make a gesture to the group of soldiers behind him.
Seeing Jiang Lei's gesture, a group of soldiers immediately slowed down their steps.
In the blink of an eye, they clearly demonstrated the rules and regulations.
Jiang Lei breathed a silent sigh of relief and led a group of soldiers to the table where many major generals were sitting.
Young Master Liu gently turned over a page of documents and glanced at Jiang Lei and a group of soldiers who were carefully placing tea, melons and fruits on the table.
"Jiang Lei, don't be so cautious, just let the soldiers do as they please."
Hearing Young Master Liu's sudden voice, Jiang Lei was stunned for a moment, then nodded hurriedly after he realized what he was saying.
"Yes, yes, I finally understand."
"Uncle, uncle, brothers, you should eat and drink as you should. Don't worry about affecting my young master's mind."
"We obey your order, thank you Your Majesty."
Liu Mingzhi nodded with a smile, then withdrew his gaze and continued to read the contents of the document in his hand.
For a moment, Nangong Ye and the large group of generals were either drinking tea from the cup or eating various fruits and snacks from the tray with brisk movements.
However, no matter what they were doing, a group of people would always look slightly nervous from time to time, and they would secretly glance at Mr. Liu who was flipping through documents.
It was obvious that they were all worried at this moment. They were worried that the charter that a large group of people came together to discuss might dissatisfy Young Master Liu.
Among the large group of people present, the most relaxed person was naturally Song Qing.
After all, he has nothing to do with the establishment of a joint chamber of commerce.
There is no relationship, so there is no need to feel nervous.
It took about as long as a cup of tea.
Liu Mingzhi gently closed the document in his hand, looked at Zhang Kuang, Nangong Ye, Wanyan Chizha and the rest of them with a slightly raised eyebrow and a smile.
A group of people who were drinking tea, eating fruits, and nibbling melon seeds saw Master Liu's smiling face, and all of them breathed a sigh of relief.
The nervousness that was originally there was relieved in an instant.
Judging from the smile on Young Master Liu's face, they already felt vaguely confident.
If nothing unexpected happens, Liu Mingzhi should be very satisfied with the charter drawn up by himself and others.
"Uncle, uncle, uncle, brothers."
"I'm waiting here."
Liu Mingzhi picked up the jade fan placed on his stomach and flicked it gently, then moved the pillow behind his neck under his waist with his backhand.
"Uncle, from a general point of view, the charter you have drawn up is very good."
"but."
Nangong Ye, Zhang Kuang and the rest of the group heard the words of appreciation from Young Master Liu before they had time to be happy. Then they heard the word "but" from behind him.
As soon as they heard the word "but" that Young Master Liu changed the subject of, everyone who had just relaxed a bit suddenly became a little nervous again.
"His Majesty?"
"His Majesty?"
Liu Mingzhi gently shook the jade fan in his hand, while smiling and tapping the document in his hand gently on his knees.
"Uncle, uncle, uncle, the detailed charter you drafted is still a little too restrictive for the United Chamber of Commerce.
In my opinion, you might as well relax some specific regulations appropriately!"
As soon as Young Master Liu said this, Zhang Kuang and his group of generals immediately looked at each other in confusion.
Nangong Ye gently put down the tea cup in his hand and looked at the smiling Young Master Liu with a somewhat tangled expression.
"Your Majesty, are you saying that we need to appropriately relax the management of some specific regulations?"
Young Master Liu paused slightly while tapping his knee with the document, then turned to look at Nangong Ye, who looked slightly troubled, and nodded with a smile.
"Uncle, we can definitely relax some regulations on the registration and registration of caravans from Western countries, the inspection of goods, the entry and exit of cities, etc.
Some goods may be delayed for a day or two, but this is not a big problem.
However, some goods cannot be delayed.
If you delay a little bit, some caravans will most likely make their trip in vain.
When the time comes, let alone making money, you may lose all your money.
In addition, the series of review regulations for caravans from various countries willing to join the United Chamber of Commerce can also reduce some of the verification intensity.
The review you have set is too strict. After hearing about this situation, many small caravans may be discouraged.
After the joint caravan is officially established, it will of course rely on some large caravans with good scale, but those small caravans are also an indispensable and important part!
One or two small caravans, or five or six small caravans, is indeed not a big problem for the United Chamber of Commerce.
But!
When the number of small caravans reaches dozens, hundreds, or even thousands, they become a force that no one dares to ignore easily.
Joint Chamber of Commerce, Joint Chamber of Commerce, the most critical point is the word "union".
Since we are a joint chamber of commerce, we naturally need it for both large caravans and small caravans!"
"This, this, Your Majesty!"
"Uncle, just say whatever you want, I'm listening!"
Nangong Ye looked at Young Master Liu who was half lying on the rocking chair, and hesitantly raised his hand to stroke the gray beard above his chin twice.
"Your Majesty, after careful deliberation, these regulations drawn up are already loose enough.
If we continue to relax it, many problems in the future will be difficult to control!"
As soon as Nangong Ye finished speaking, Zhang Kuang, who was sitting opposite him, immediately started to echo loudly.
"Your Majesty, I second my opinion.
Your Majesty, I just thought about it. Regarding the first question you just mentioned, we can indeed relax the regulations a little bit more appropriately.
However, as for your Majesty's second question, I dare not agree with it.
Your Majesty, the second question you asked is if the verification intensity is relaxed.
Then, it would be easy for some details from other countries to be mixed into the United Chamber of Commerce.
Problems in other aspects are easy to discuss, but we have to guard against problems in detail!"
As the arrogant words fell, the rest of the main generals immediately hugged Young Master Liu in a fist.
"Your Majesty, I second the proposal."
Liu Mingzhi saw the reactions of the generals and raised his hand to stroke the stubble on his chin a few times.
"Uncle, uncle, brothers, I understand your worries.
However, you have to understand one thing.
That is, as long as you can stick to your true intentions, no matter how many tricks are mixed into the Joint Chamber of Commerce, what big effect will they have in the end?
The United Chamber of Commerce, to put it bluntly, is to provide our Dalong caravan, the caravans of the Western Regions, and the caravans of the Western countries with a place where trade can be facilitated.
What does the existence of the Chamber of Commerce have to do with matters in the military?
What? You, the main generals in the army, will not tell me, but you will casually reveal your own priorities to a stranger, right?"
When a large group of generals heard Young Master Liu's question, their expressions suddenly tightened and they hurriedly saluted to Young Master Liu.
"I don't dare."
Young Master Liu smiled calmly and glanced calmly at a large group of major generals who looked nervous.
"In that case, what else do you have to worry about?"
"This this!"
"this and that."
"Your Majesty, this, this, this."
Liu Mingzhi straightened his body fiercely, stood up from the rocking chair and walked towards the table a few steps away.
Immediately, he stopped in front of the table slowly, put down the paperwork in his hand with a chuckle, and then reached out and grabbed a small handful of nuts from the plate.
There was a soft snap.
Young Master Liu pinched open a nut, took out the kernel and threw it directly into his mouth.
"Uncle, uncle, brothers.
My young master, I still mean what I said before, don’t trust people when you employ them, and don’t trust people when you doubt them.
Since I have already planned to reuse Crich, I naturally have to let him go and give him enough rights.
You, the major generals, big and small, only need to be responsible for the stability of the many large and small cities in Dashi and Tianzhu.
As for the issues related to the Joint Chamber of Commerce, it is up to the main responsible persons within the Joint Chamber of Commerce to deal with all aspects of problems, large and small."
As Young Master Liu spoke, he picked up an empty cup and placed it on the table. He picked up the pot and poured himself a cup of herbal tea.
"If we act in accordance with these regulations you have drawn up, let me say this, young master, then there will be no need to establish a joint chamber of commerce.
On the one hand, you want others to create huge benefits for you, but on the other hand, you are on guard against others and are reluctant to give them enough rights.
Isn't this kind of nonsense nonsense?
Although you are all military generals of our Great Dragon Celestial Dynasty and do not read as many books as the civil servants above the court, you should still understand the most basic principle that you cannot have your cake and eat it too, right?
According to your idea, if you want everything, how can there be such a good thing in the world?
Say to yourselves, how can there be such a good thing in this world?"
All the generals hurriedly stood up from their chairs after hearing Young Master Liu's angry words.
