This sound seemed extremely abrupt. Although the sound was not loud, it sounded very clear in the silent lobby and reached everyone's ears very clearly.
Everyone looked around and saw that the hall was full of people, but they didn't know where the sound came from.
Hearing that voice, a strange smile appeared on Xue Poye's face, and it passed by in a flash, and no one noticed it.
Mrs. Fang also looked at the crowd, her eyebrows furrowed, and she naturally did not expect that she would actually jeer.
While everyone was wondering, they saw a person standing up slowly from the last row of seats. The person was dressed simply, wearing shorts and shorts. His face had sharp edges and corners, and he had a faint smile on his lips, but his eyes were full of laughter.
Very cold.
This man was sitting in the crowd, and he thought he was a follower of some wealthy businessman. He was inconspicuous, but he didn't expect that he would dare to speak like this.
There was silence in the lobby for a while. Suddenly, someone exclaimed: "He...he is Mr. Nan!"
…
…
Nan Huaiwu is a well-deserved legend in the history of Hangzhou's business world. If not for the appearance of Xue Poye, he could even be said to be an unreplicable legend. What he has done is not only admirable, but also heartfelt.
Sincere respect.
He is like a shooting star, instantly lighting up every corner of Hangzhou's business world, but his fall is not slower than his rise. The shooting star will eventually cross the sky and disappear. Nan Huaiwu's business history is exactly the same as that of the shooting star.
In his glorious moment, the entire business community respected him. During this period, it was even called the "prosperous period of civilian merchants". In order to deal with the tyranny of the eldest young master of the Lu family, Nan Huaiwu led the oppressed
The small and medium-sized shops in the business war almost defeated the Lu family and even made the eldest young man of the Lu family angry to death. In the eyes of many people, Nan Huaiwu's business era has come, and the merchants he led were also full of confidence, but unexpectedly
The Fang family broke out from Hengli and used various forces, both black and white, to defeat Nan Huaiwu's elaborate business alliance system in a short period of time. Nan Huaiwu also quietly retreated amid hesitation.
From a certain perspective, this can be regarded as a tragic history in the business world. Nan Huaiwu's quiet retirement has made countless people sigh and sigh.
When the Lu family's dominance continued unabated, even without any scruples, many people secretly thought of this former business hero and some of the things he had done.
Of course, no one would have thought that he would come back.
After the man called out, more voices immediately rang out from the crowd: "Mr. Nan, Mr. Nan...!" The lobby was extremely noisy for a while.
Xue Poye heard the excitement in these voices, and finally understood Nan Huaiwu's position in the hearts of Hangzhou merchants.
These are all uncontrollable feelings. Even though Mrs. Fang was sitting there, it did not affect everyone's feelings.
Nan Huai was as immovable as a mountain, just standing there, like a rock. Although he was wearing ordinary coarse clothes, he exuded an aura that was unmatched by the rich men in brocade robes and broad robes.
It is an inner style that cannot be faked out by dressing up.
Mrs. Fang stared at Nan Huaiwu, and Nan Huaiwu stared at Mrs. Fang. The old enemies met again on such an occasion.
Xue Poye touched his nose, feeling very comfortable and leisurely.
This is of course a great sight. It is a rare thing for the business leaders of the past and today's business leaders to gather together. And such a sight would probably not be possible without me.
"Mr. Nan!" Mrs. Fang said with a smile on her lips: "You are back!"
"I'm back!" Nan Huaiwu put his hands behind his back, his eyes extremely cold: "I'm back, you haven't left yet?"
Mrs. Fang smiled softly, which turned out to be very charming. She changed her previous coldness and her voice was a bit charming: "Mr. Nan, is he missing the scenery here, so he came back to take a look?"
She had always been as cold as ice, but suddenly she was charming and delicate. Many people were surprised. Seeing that she looked like a virgin but showed a charming smile that was heart-stirring, many people were even more surprised and moved.
There was a touch of emotion on Nan Huaiwu's face, and he said calmly: "I miss the scenery, and I miss my old friends even more!"
An emotional merchant actually burst into tears and said: "Mr. Nan, you...you are finally back!" Listening to his voice, he felt very aggrieved, just like a child who was bullied by outsiders and saw his parents.
.
When he said this, many merchants cried with him, and the hall was extremely touching for a moment.
Suddenly I heard someone shouting coldly: "Nan Huaiwu, what are you doing here again? Do you want to harm others again?"
Someone immediately answered: "I ran away like a turtle grandson, how can I come back today with the dignity? Isn't it enough that I'm not cowardly enough?"
Naturally, they were holding the merchants of the Lu family. When they saw this scene, they came out to scold Nan Huaiwu. They just wanted to please Mrs. Fang.
As soon as they rebuked them, Nan Huaiwu's old subordinates were naturally unwilling to be outdone. They used to be headless snakes and did not dare to go against the Lu family. Now that Nan Huaiwu came out and recalled his past glory, many people spoke up to defend him.
"Does this Hangzhou belong to you? Why can't Mr. Nan come?"
"If it weren't for the despicable means, how could Mr. Nan leave? Mr. Nan's business talent is obvious to all. If you say he is a coward, I don't know who is the coward."
"We are all our own people, don't be rude."
The lobby seemed very noisy for a while. These were all merchants from Hangzhou, and the merchants were naturally very sharp-tongued. So in the lobby, you came and I exchanged words, and it was very lively.
"Stop making noise!" one person shouted: "Is this Caishikou?"
As soon as these words were said, all the merchants immediately felt that they were a little out of character and shut their mouths instantly.
Seeing that everyone calmed down, Mrs. Fang sighed: "We are still the same old friends, but Mr. Nan's prestige is not as good as before!"
"Prestige is not for showing off." Nan Huaiwu said calmly: "Not many people can display such prestige as Madam. But looking at Madam today, the prestige seems to be too much."
Mrs. Fang sighed: "How prestigious can a woman like me be? Mr. Nan made fun of me."
Nan Huaiwu still put his hands behind his back, with a slight smile of disdain, and said slowly: "To deal with such an underachiever, Madam actually wants to use the power of the Chamber of Commerce. I really don't know whether to cry or laugh."
"Oh!" Mrs. Fang's beautiful eyes flashed with light, and she said softly: "Mr. Nan's words make me a little confused. What is crying and what is laughter?"
"To deal with a junior, it is necessary to use the strength of the entire Hangzhou Chamber of Commerce. This is naturally funny." Nan Huaiwu said mercilessly: "But thinking about the only method you have, I really feel that I was defeated.
In your hand."
Mrs. Fang smiled faintly, took a sip of tea, and said slowly: "No matter how you lose, defeat is defeat. This is not a question worth pondering."
Nan Huaiwu raised his head and looked at the roof beams. After a long time, he slowly said: "Madam, let's play another game of chess!"
Mrs. Fang's eyes flashed with panic, but her face remained calm as she said: "Playing chess?"
"Take the city as your territory and business as your son!" Nan Huaiwu said calmly: "Let's start over."
When the merchants heard this, they were surprised, excited, panicked, excited, and even scared, with different expressions, but they all understood that Nan Huaiwu was going to return to the business world.
This is certainly shocking news.
Xue Poye took a deep breath. He suddenly felt that the weather today was really good, and his whole body felt indescribably comfortable.
Mrs. Fang suppressed her anger and said calmly: "Mr. Nan, do you want to relive your past failures?"
"Failure is not permanent." Nan Huaiwu said firmly: "I think good luck will not always stand by a person's side, and bad luck will not always haunt a person."
What he meant was very clear. My failure was not the fault of the war, but was caused by external forces. This is of course the truth.
Nan Huaiwu's business talent is absolutely rare. He was born as a small salesman, and he was able to piss off the wealthy eldest son of the Lu family, and even almost dominate Hangzhou. This has proven his strength.
His failure was simply because his political skills were not as good as that of the Lu family, and his backstage power was not as good as that of the Lu family.
The lobby was extremely silent. The conversation between the two giants was profound, straightforward and full of hostility. Everyone stared at the two of them blankly.
"Why are you?" Mrs. Fang was silent for a long time, and finally looked at Nan Huaiwu and said, "Why are you playing this game of chess with me? What bets do you have?"
Nan Huaiwu smiled faintly and asked something that everyone was baffled by.
"What bets do I have? What bets can you give me?"
This was of course a very strange statement. No one knew who the question was about. Judging from Nan Huaiwu's appearance and tone, it was obvious that he was not asking Mrs. Fang in return.
The question was asked and the answer was also given.
"Actually, your bets are not much. You have three restaurants, one of which is even in the suburbs. You still have hundreds of thousands of taels of silver, but this money may cost a lot because it needs to be used for other things.
By the way, you still have some clerks, and these clerks all have mouths to eat. Finally, you also have a general shopkeeper. Well, I think that’s all you have. If you have to say anything else, it’s only
The confidence to never give up and the integrity to pursue fairness." The person who spoke was meticulous, serious and careful.
The speaker was of course Xue Poye, a rising star in Hangzhou’s business world, Shopkeeper Xue!dd
