Zhao Shu was not very proficient in the ways of merchants. In his previous life, he had only read a few books and studied a few cases in his spare time.
He is just a theoretical giant, not a practical practitioner.
However, theories that transcend the times can still create unprecedented storms in this era.
He is very poor now.
He urgently needed a windfall to finance maintenance expenses and repair buildings, and he couldn't let Qin Wangzheng wait too long.
He exchanged 60% of his wealth for the Hidden Palace. Now, the Hidden Palace is in his hands, and the one in Zhangtai Palace is still waiting for the results.
"I've met the palace master!"
Everyone came in and saluted Zhao Shu. They were in awe of Zhao Shu, but there was still a trace of disapproval deep in their hearts.
What they were in awe of was the identity of Palace Master Zhao Shu, but what they didn't take seriously was that they didn't think that a person who came out of the military would be so proficient as a merchant.
"You are all people in the Hidden Palace who are somewhat good at merchants. When I see you today, I think you all understand why."
After taking a sip of water, Zhao Shu looked at everyone and said, "Take a seat by yourself. There is herbal tea on the table. Come by yourself!"
"promise."
Everyone took their seats, each poured tea, then sat upright and looked at Zhao Shu.
"The Chamber of Commerce has been established. What you have to do is to open a store in Xianyang first and then sell it."
"Then it will gradually expand to all important cities. I have only one requirement for this, and that is that any big city that can be named in the Central Plains must have a semicolon of our Chamber of Commerce."
Zhao Shu looked at everyone and asked meaningfully: "Do you have confidence in this?"
"Palace Master, as long as we have enough money and food, we will be confident." At this time, a middle-aged man turned to Zhao Shu and said, "The biggest problem in expanding the Chamber of Commerce is money, food and manpower."
"As for the manpower, Hidden Palace is not short of money, but I'm afraid Hidden Palace doesn't have much money and food."
"Um."
Nodding slightly, Zhao Shu turned to the middle-aged man and said, "So, this is the reason why we set foot in Xianyang first."
"The people at Yin Gong Gongmai have made soap. You can go take a look and try it. Then you can make a price based on the market and leave it to me."
"However, what you need to remember is that my first targets are nobles and wealthy businessmen."
"The soap among them must be priced high to make it a symbol of nobility. And soap is faced by merchants and nobles..."
“Not for sale to the common people for the time being!”
Having said this, Zhao Shu looked at the thoughtful people and said, "You can go and see the various categories of soap, and then come up with a sales plan."
"Then leave it to me and I will decide whether to implement it after reading it."
.......
At this moment, Zhao Shu stopped talking.
What hunger marketing, what advertising, what brand building...
All kinds of thoughts piled up on his lips, and then Zhao Shu swallowed them.
At that moment, he also wanted to take a look at Shang Mei's ability. If it was really good, with a little training, he could let it go.
"promise."
Hearing this, everyone nodded quickly.
At this moment, the contempt in everyone's hearts had long since disappeared, leaving only excitement.
Some of them have been working in large and small positions in the Hidden Palace Chamber of Commerce. However, the Hidden Palace Chamber of Commerce is not big, and even though it is backed by the Hidden Palace, it has never been very impressive.
In addition, Qin Wangzheng didn't pay much attention to this, and over time, it became like this.
This left them with no choice but to sit back and watch the Hidden Palace Chamber of Commerce decay.
Now the Hidden Palace has a new owner, and Zhao Shu obviously pays more attention to their business connections. After all, a new chamber of commerce has been established.
Moreover, the people in Gongmai have already started making soaps, which allows them to see the possibility of taking off.
This made them feel a little more grateful to Zhao Shu. In the hidden palace, only usefulness can change their destiny.
Change your own destiny and change the destiny of your family.
Seeing this scene, Zhao Shu smiled and waved: "Well, everyone, go down and get ready!"
"promise."
When Zhao Shuhui retired from the palace, he saw Ying Lang again. Compared to the harshness before, Ying Lang now had a smile on his face and was very kind.
"Boy, you have learned all the etiquette. Except that you have not yet gone to the school to receive royal education, you are already a qualified royal son."
Glancing at Ying Lang, Zhao Shu sneered: "Old man, do you think I'm stupid? Here, the education of the royal family is the key, etiquette is just a face, and it cannot be used as food!"
"Ha ha......."
Ying Lang chuckled: "There is a high probability that you will not enter the school. The king will send you all-round instruction!"
"I came here today just to tell you that from now on, I will not come over again."
"Get acquainted with me at home, and you will go to Yongcheng soon."
Having said this, Ying Lang took a deep look at Zhao Shu: "Zongzheng has prepared a banquet to get to know the clan's children when he returns from Yongcheng."
"good!"
Zhao Shu nodded, he did not refuse. Ever since he came to Xianyang, the Da Qin clan has always shown goodwill.
Maybe this was because of Qin Wangzheng, but he benefited greatly.
When he comes back from Yongcheng, he will also be a member of the clan. Even if he avoids clan affairs, he cannot avoid them.
"Tell Zong Zheng for me that Zhao Shu will definitely go there when the time comes."
"good."
Nodding, Ying Lang turned and left.
At this time, he was satisfied in his heart. As a member of the royal family of Great Qin, although he had done nothing in his life, Great Qin was as powerful as a rainbow.
Now that there are talents in the Great Qin clan, he is naturally happy to see them come to fruition, which means that Great Qin will surely prosper.
As for the Da Qin clan, they don't know how to do anything else, but they are top-notch experts in giving birth to children. With the protection of people like Zhao Shu, the clan can be stable.
As long as the clan was stable, they thought their descendants were in danger. This was the reason why the clan supported Zhao Shu when King Qin expressed his stance for the first time and Ying Xi spoke.
In their view, Zhao Shu's weak bloodline is not a problem at all. What they value is Zhao Shu's ability.
In the clan, a big talent is needed to protect the family from wind and rain.
Watching Ying Lang leave, Zhao Shu frowned slightly. During this period of time, Qin Wangzheng deliberately or followed the trend, and the people and forces around him were already quite large.
Let him go from a small nobility to a power that is no less than that of Zhao Gao, and can even rival Zhang Han.
After all, once the Hidden Palace develops, it will have more potential than the Shaofu in the future. Zhao Shu has already seen this.
During this period of time, the reason why the Shaofu was strong was entirely because Da Qin was in the midst of a annexation war. Otherwise, the Shaofu would have been in a weak position among Da Qin's official offices.
