Zhao Shu was very grateful for Li Si's reminder this time. Zhao Shu knew very well that compared with an old official like Li Si, he was too immature politically.
Since Li Si reminded me, it was something he did not do thoroughly, and he should pay more attention to it in the future.
After taking a sip of warm wine, Zhao Shu looked calm. At this moment, Zhao Shu no longer had the fear and fear he showed in front of Li Si.
He does have some shortcomings in politics.
But, he is still young.
Once again, he met an emperor like Qin Wangzheng who would not easily kill his ministers as long as he was not rebelling. This meant that Zhao Shu had time to grow.
But now Qin Wangzheng has given him the conditions and space to grow, and Zhao Shu also believes that he will be as capable as Li Si and others in the court.
When he matures, he will not be afraid of any storm.
Zhao Shu believed that he would definitely grow up, otherwise, he would be sorry. The civil and military forces of the Qin Dynasty were the result of Qin Wangzheng's great love for him.
Thoughts flashed through his mind, Zhao Shu put down the wine cup, looked at Meng Fan, and said: "How is the situation of Beidou and Nandou Chamber of Commerce?"
"My subordinates generally know the situation of Beidou Chamber of Commerce, but I don't know as much as Heihuang. As for Nandou Chamber of Commerce, I don't know much about it."
Having said this, Meng Fan turned to Zhao Shu and said: "Palace Master, please wait a moment, my subordinates will bring Quanzi over. He is more familiar with the situation of the Nandou Chamber of Commerce, and his subordinates did not interfere."
Meng Fan looked respectful. He had also seen the potential of the Nandou Chamber of Commerce in the past few days, and he felt even more grateful to Zhao Shu.
And he also probably understood clearly how much Zhao Shu valued Nandou Chamber of Commerce, because Beidou Chamber of Commerce did not belong to Yin Palace, but Nandou belonged to Yin Palace, and Yin Palace belonged to Zhao Shu.
"good."
Nodding slightly, Zhao Shu signaled Meng Fan to leave, thinking about something.
A quarter of an hour later, Hei Huang came to the room, saluted Zhao Shu, and said, "I have met the palace master!"
Glancing at Heihuang, Zhao Shu nodded, and then said, "You are not from the Hidden Palace, so you don't need to call me Palace Master."
"sit down!"
Signaling Heihuang to take a seat, Zhao Shu took a sip of wine: "Tell me about the current situation of the Beidou Chamber of Commerce!"
"promise."
Although Zhao Shu did not allow him to call him Palace Master, Hei Huang was not dissatisfied at all, but he knew how much Qin Wangzheng valued the person in front of him.
After all, even the Hidden Palace was handed over to Zhao Shu.
With thoughts swirling in his mind, Heihuang turned towards Zhao Shu and said: "General, now the Beidou Chamber of Commerce has established a foothold in Xianyang and is spreading towards Qin."
"Trying to gain a foothold."
"Because of the soap incident, merchants from Great Qin and other countries came to visit me one after another. My subordinates are thinking about this matter."
Hearing this, Zhao Shu nodded: "Beidou Chamber of Commerce will temporarily focus on Qin and internal history."
"Only by establishing a firm foothold can we expand rapidly. The current Beidou foundation is too shallow and soap alone cannot last long."
"We need to collect money and food, so it is imperative to agent other places."
"promise."
Zhao Shu glanced at Heihuang, pondered for a moment, and said: "Find a map of the great struggle in the world, and then bring forward all the chambers of commerce that want to be agents."
"A representative from a chamber of commerce is here to sell the agency right today."
"promise."
Heihuang was a little stunned when he heard that Zhao Shu was selling them one by one. He heard the most about Zhao Shu in Zhao land.
In his opinion, Zhao Shu was a legend. However, when he simplified Zhao Shu, he found that the gap between it and his imagination was too big.
Seeing Hei Huang still stunned, Zhao Shu couldn't help but look over. Hei Huang noticed that he was losing his temper and left with a smile.
After a while, Meng Fan came in with a young man: "Palace Master, this is my eldest son, Meng Zhou!"
After saying that, he scolded the young man and said, "Meng Zhou, why don't you bow to the palace master quickly!"
"My subordinate Meng Zhou has met the palace master!" A young man named Meng Zhou saluted Zhao Shu with a respectful tone and said, "Thank you, palace master, for your support."
"Meng Zhou, what a good name!" Zhao Shu smiled and said to the young man, "Tell me, how is the Nandou Chamber of Commerce doing now?"
After hearing this, Meng Zhou sorted out his thoughts and said to Zhao Shu: "Palace Master, Nandou Chamber of Commerce is the original Hidden Palace Chamber of Commerce."
"The smell of decay is extremely strong. After my subordinates took over, they immediately began to rectify it, starting with personnel matters."
"My subordinates plan to reduce the burden on the Nandou Chamber of Commerce. Although the current framework of the Nandou Chamber of Commerce is large, many of them are bad debts."
"Some businesses have become a burden, and almost all the profits from other businesses of the Nandou Chamber of Commerce are used to subsidize the losses of these businesses."
"My subordinates plan to cut off the loss-making businesses one by one, and then focus on operating some profitable businesses, and then slowly expand."
........
After half an hour passed, Zhao Shu nodded, Meng Zhou indeed had great talents, especially among merchants.
Meng Zhou's thoughts partly overlapped with his. At that time, he saw the situation of Nandou Chamber of Commerce and thought the same way.
"Your idea is good, you can do it according to your idea."
Zhao Shu first gave support to Meng Zhou, and then said to Meng Zhou: "Today the Beidou Chamber of Commerce will sell the agency rights, and the Nandou Chamber of Commerce is basically in Qidi."
"With the income from soap, you can quickly transform the structure of Nandou and make it full of life again."
Hearing this, Meng Zhou's face was filled with joy, and he turned to Zhao Shu and said: "I will help Nandou Chamber of Commerce, thank you Palace Master!"
Glancing at Meng Zhou, Zhao Shu chuckled and said: "No need to thank me, even if it is the Nandou Chamber of Commerce, if you want to get the agency right, you still need to pay the corresponding money and food."
"I can only guarantee that you have a chance. If you don't have enough money and food, you won't be able to get a prosperous place like Qidi."
"You are a smart person, and you understand clearly why I did this."
Hearing what Zhao Shu said, Meng Zhou couldn't help but nodded and said in a respectful tone: "I understand."
Regarding the Beidou Chamber of Commerce, he had heard his father talk about it, so he naturally knew the extraordinary things behind Beidou.
At this moment, he had only respect for Zhao Shu and no dissatisfaction at all.
He knew in his heart that his fate, and even the fate of his family, would be changed because of Zhao Shu.
Watching Meng Zhou leave, a rich smile appeared on Zhao Shu's lips. He was extremely satisfied with Meng Zhou.
"Meng Fan, you have given birth to a good son. He is young and has extraordinary knowledge. Even if he is in charge of the Nandou Chamber of Commerce, he will stand out."
Having said this, Zhao Shu began to draw cakes and said meaningfully to Meng Fan: "As far as I know, Zhi Su Neishi is already quite old."
"Meng Zhou is still young and immature. After a few years of experience, he will probably be too old to govern Su Neishi..."
