After listening to Zhao Cheng's explanation of the new term supermarket, Dong Twelve became more and more frightened, while Xiao Luomu frowned.
Zhao Cheng gave them time to digest, and then asked: "Chairman Xiao, seeing that you look worried, just say whatever you want to say."
Xiao Luomu first took a deep breath and said seriously: "A supermarket that covers almost all daily necessities and commonly sold products not only provides convenience to the people but also controls the pricing power invisibly. This is indeed of great benefit to us.
There are benefits. But the problem is that this will definitely hurt the interests of other businesses. And behind big businesses are often powerful families with deep foundations. By doing this, we are standing on the opposite side of these powerful families."
"So you need enough influence."
Zhao Cheng tapped his finger on the coffee table and said: "In Yanchuan, I am sure. But in Jingdong County, you are now the head of the Xiao family. I believe it will not be difficult for you to do it."
Xiao Luomu shook his head and said: "The situation in Jingdong County is not as simple as you think. The Xiao family can become a dominant family not only by relying on years of foundation and connections, but also by maintaining relationships with businesses in the inner and outer circles.
It is also a very important part. No matter how the Xiao family makes money these years, their interests will be taken care of at the same time. But once the Xiao family opens this supermarket, their overall interests will be harmed, and they will definitely unite against my Xiao family."
Zhao Cheng said: "The emperor and I have a private agreement, and the amount given to him is not a small sum. After the supermarket is completed, we will also pay taxes to the court. We do not compete with the court for profits. As for the common people, prices have dropped and shopping has become more convenient.
, and we didn’t compete with the people for profits. What we did was just compete with the businessmen for profits.”
"We have the ambition to make the Oriental Chamber of Commerce the greatest, and competing with businessmen for profits will happen sooner or later!"
"Chairman Xiao, I told you when the Chamber of Commerce was established that in the future, whether it is the Xiao family, the Zhao family, or the Xu family, the Li family, any family should be under the Oriental Chamber of Commerce, not above the Chamber of Commerce."
"I hope you can think about the problem as the chairman of the Chamber of Commerce. Either you let Jingdong County stagnate and give up building a supermarket with Yanchuan, or you use thunderous means to suppress all those businesses through the supermarket.
Stay! If you succeed this time, you will be done with it once and for all if you start any business that will harm their interests in the future."
"Think about it, can you guarantee that when the Chamber of Commerce and the Xiao family grow in the future, their interests will not be harmed?"
Xiao Luomu still frowned, closed his eyes and began to think.
He said: "It is difficult to resolve this matter peacefully."
"You are not short of swords and guns." Zhao Cheng said sternly: "Huangzhen is now the governor of Jingdong County, and Xiao Luofeng is observing filial piety in Qingdong City again. The local military and political power of Jingdong County is actually in the hands of you and me. Take care of them.
Some businessmen can’t control it anymore?”
After saying that, Zhao Cheng stood up and said in a deep voice: "If they don't obey, kill a few of them!"
Xiao Luomu also stood up and said, "This matter has become serious. How do you explain it to the emperor?"
Zhao Cheng suddenly became angry and shouted: "He took 50% of my profit because he needs to help me settle the matter. I don't need to explain!"
Zhao Cheng walked up to Xiao Luomu, stared into his eyes closely, and said seriously: "Brother Xiao, this second step of the development of the Chamber of Commerce is very critical. Only when the second step is passed, the future of the Oriental Chamber of Commerce will be
That's the smooth road! Yanchuan and Jingdong are your and my base camps, I don't care about other places, our base camp must be decided by the two of us, and no other voices can be allowed!"
"Yanchuan, I will do my best no matter what."
"Jingdong, I also hope you can ignite your passion, even at any cost!"
Infected by Zhao Cheng's aura, Xiao Luomu clenched his fists tightly, making a loud crunching sound.
He was shocked by the sight of Zhao Cheng in front of him, and suddenly realized that although Zhao Cheng was still laughing and joking all day long, the 'qi' in his bones was different from before.
This is confidence and even more ambition.
Xiao Luomu's eyes finally became determined!
"Okay! I listen to you and do this!"
Zhao Cheng breathed a sigh of relief, put his hand on Xiao Luomu's shoulder, and said: "Brothers working together can cut through gold. If you need my support, just ask."
Xiao Luomu thought for a moment and said, "I want to borrow someone from you."
Zhao Cheng asked: "Who?"
"I need a master."
"Do you want Zhao Wu? Yes, it's fine whoever you want."
"No, I want to have sex."
Zhao Cheng smiled and said: "Fortunately Zhao Wu is not here, otherwise he would be very hurt, haha!"
Xiao Luomu explained seriously: "I know the situation in Jingdong County best. I can probably guess which families will strongly oppose it and which merchants are the thorns. There are several families in coastal counties who may want to make some moves. Knife and gun, Qianlang’s water quality is good, so it’s best for him to help me.”
Zhao Cheng nodded and said: "Okay, let Qian Lang follow you. When the overall situation is decided, you can let him come back."
Xiao Luomu asked: "Here in Yanchuan City, when do you plan to take action?"
Zhao Cheng said: "The Oriental Restaurant will be open for trial operation in three days. I asked Li Guanyu to send banquet invitations to all the merchants in Yanchuan."
Xiao Luomu was shocked: "Do it so soon??"
"It's inappropriate to say that it's not appropriate to take action. I'm just saying hello to them."
Zhao Cheng smiled slightly and said: "After Su Wansan's death, the only big merchants with status in Yanchuan City are Li Zhi and Zhu Guoneng. These two are already members of the outer circle of the Chamber of Commerce, so there will be no trouble in the city. But the supermarket If we want to cover the entire Yanchuan area, other big merchants in Yanchuan must be of the same mind as us, otherwise Yanchuan will not be able to accommodate them."
"When treating guests to a meal, be polite first and then fight."
Zhao Cheng walked back to the chair and sat down, saying: "I'll give them the chance, it depends on whether they want it or not."
At this time, Xu An walked over quickly.
Seeing the smile on Xu An's face, everyone knew that his affairs were going smoothly.
Zhao Cheng said: "Did you sign the agreement?"
Xu An stretched out and said: "The agreement was signed in the morning. I just took the people from the household department to the club to relax. I made an appointment with Li Guanyu in the evening and asked Li Guanyu to accompany them to the Hongxiu Building to continue relaxing."
Zhao Cheng said: "With your frequency of relaxation, aren't you afraid that they won't be able to return to Changsui?"
Xu An spread his hands and said, "I can't help it! They insist that Yanchuan is more fun than Changsui!"
Zhao Cheng reminded: "Don't always arrange such costly activities. Let Li Guanyu order the restaurant to make some soup for them to replenish themselves."
"Haha, I got it. By the way, both Yuan Zhang and Wang Ren replied."
"How to say?"
"They said that as long as penicillin can be released to them first, it will not be a problem to spend money to build a medical center."
Zhao Cheng snapped his fingers and said: "You can do some tricks later and adjust their investment ratio so that Wang Ren will contribute more and Yuan Zhang will contribute less. As well as penicillin, give Yuan Zhang more. This You take care of it."
"Hey!" Xu An said with a strange smile: "Wang Ren will be so angry if he knows this?"
Zhao Cheng said quietly: "Wang Ren, the governor of the three New Taipei counties, is richer than Yuan Zhang! And now that the mob has been suppressed, there will be no major war. But it is different with Yuan Zhang. Maybe Yang Qingzhi's
When will the boy launch a surprise attack again? It will be difficult for the soldiers of the southern frontier army. Of course, we need to give them more penicillin. No one can find fault with this in front of anyone."
"Yes, yes, I just like your serious deception."
When Xu An sat down to drink tea, Zhao Wu came over.
"Master, Wang Yucen wants to see you."
"Let her come in."
Zhao Wu hesitated for a moment and said, "She also brought someone with her."
Zhao Cheng asked: "Who?"
After a pause, Zhao Wu slowly said a name.
"Duxu Chengdu."
Hearing this, Xu An and Xiao Luomu looked at each other, and then everyone looked at each other.
I don’t know why, but I suddenly felt itchy all over my body.
