Chapter 3378 Discussion
The people around President Coxsackie looked in the direction Coxsackie pointed, toward the only woman in the entire reception room.
The one they were looking at was a woman who didn't look very old, probably in her twenties at most. Compared to the other people in the room, she was not only young, but even a little childish.
This woman is very beautiful, bright and charming, but of course this word is not a good word to describe a leader. After all, the first reaction of everyone who saw this woman was that she obviously didn't look like a president.
"Is that Feldman's daughter? She's really young." Another president next to Cossack said. Obviously they all knew Feldman, the former president of Qi Wan Chamber of Commerce, but many of them saw his daughter for the first time.
"The cake of Qi Wan Chamber of Commerce is big, but whoever eats it will make others uncomfortable. It is better to take advantage of this opportunity and let the ZHENG Mansion eat it directly." Cossack said.
Of course, Coxsackie said this out of selfish motives, or out of personal vendetta. He had a grudge against the Qi Wanshang Society and against this woman's father.
Although the Fidelmans were dead now, Coxsackie hadn't even breathed a sigh of relief yet. Coxsackie wanted to see the Qiwan Chamber of Commerce, which he had built, being devoured alive, and now was undoubtedly a good opportunity.
"I see, this is a good choice." Thomas next to him agreed directly. Originally, their chamber of commerce could not take up the resources of Qi Wan Chamber of Commerce, and they could not get much. Then he would definitely support Coxsackie in this matter, because he was not the one who died.
"Indeed, this is the best option. Qi Wan Chamber of Commerce itself can't hold on for too long anyway..." Another person nearby echoed.
Of course, they agreed, but in fact, whether these people supported Coxsackie or not could not be determined by just a few words. Now we know why they were called here today. Everyone here is the president, and everyone has his own calculations.
"The Prime Minister has arrived." Suddenly, a voice was announced. The businessmen who were discussing something fell silent, and those who were sitting there stood up one after another.
It was obvious that quite a while had passed since they were gathered here, and even the tea of those who arrived early had gone cold.
But no one dares to make any comments, just let you wait, this is the difference in status.
Soon Terrad came in from the side. At this time, Terrad walked very fast, as if he was in a hurry, and he seemed a little anxious.
In fact, Terrad was really busy. The issue of the empire's restructuring had not yet been determined, and he had to spend time meeting with the presidents of these chambers of commerce. In Terrad's view, the empire's restructuring was the most important thing at the moment. As for the Royal Chamber of Commerce, there was still money in the treasury. Although this was also a matter, it was obviously not that urgent.
Linton agreed to the division, and he had been discussing with other ministers how to divide it since yesterday, and he had been so busy that he had hardly had a break. In order to make him work well, Linton also helped him transform his body, otherwise Terrad would really not be able to bear this work at his age.
"Please sit down." Tairad walked to the upper seat and sat down, then made a casual gesture for the guild leaders to sit down. His tone was obviously disrespectful, and he really didn't take these guild leaders too seriously.
If Linton hadn't personally ordered him to do this job, he really wouldn't have had the time to meet these guild leaders.
All the guild leaders sat down, and they didn't dare to move at all. Before Terrad came, they could still sit there leisurely drinking tea and chatting, but when Terrad arrived, they sat there like children in class, not daring to move.
The momentum of Terrad alone frightened them so much that they dared not move. They all held their necks high like prisoners waiting to be sentenced. "I called you here today to discuss something with you." Terrad was not polite and went straight to the point. Although he said it was a discussion, there was no tone of negotiation.
"Your Majesty asked me to do something yesterday. He wanted to establish a chamber of commerce, a royal chamber of commerce." Terrad said it quite calmly, but these words set off huge waves in the hearts of everyone below.
The Royal Chamber of Commerce? They had never expected this to happen.
Was there a Royal Chamber of Commerce before? Of course there was, but it was never public.
The status of merchants in the empire was very low, and all previous emperors knew one thing: if the royal family established a chamber of commerce, it would be tantamount to raising the status of other merchants in disguise.
You see, the royal family has a chamber of commerce. If you look down on merchants, doesn’t that mean you also look down on the royal family? Doesn’t that raise the status of merchants?
Besides, the royal family doesn't really need to do this. They can just wait to reap the profits. If they are short of money, they can just find a few businessmen and discuss donating money or lives. Isn't this more convenient than setting up their own chamber of commerce?
But don't the royal family do business in private? Of course it's impossible. Everyone knows that the leeks are being cut, but it's not openly displayed. You can't let the leeks know when they are being cut, otherwise what if they stop growing, or what if they grow legs and run away.
Before this, the main function of the Royal Chamber of Commerce was not to make money, but to be an information organization like the Imperial Guards, and it was an information organization that specialized in business. They hid in large and small chambers of commerce, and no one knew which chamber of commerce they were. They also did business, but they mainly collected information through the chamber of commerce.
However, this time, Terrad inexplicably brought this matter to light. What was his purpose? Everyone who heard the news didn't know whether it was a good thing or a bad thing, and they were in a state of confusion.
Do you think the royal family set up a chamber of commerce to improve their status or to reap profits in another way?
"It's like this. The newly established Royal Chamber of Commerce needs a president to preside over it." Terrad ignored everyone's reactions and continued, "As for the job, simply put, it's to help the ZHENG government make money. You are all leaders in this industry, so I asked you to come here this time just to ask who is willing to serve as the president?"
"Excuse me, Prime Minister, His Majesty wants us to help him make money, right?" A president asked in a low voice, afraid that his voice would be too loud and scare people.
"To put it simply, that's it." Terrad said directly without beating around the bush.
Everyone below had some idea of the situation. After all, many people had received news that Linton had robbed a large sum of money in the war and that the money was now piled up in the treasury. They roughly understood why Terrad would look for them.
"Then... Your Majesty, how big a business are you planning to do?" asked another guild master, which actually meant to ask how much capital you are willing to invest.
"That depends on how much you can offer," Terrad said directly.
"What...do you mean?" Terrad's words made everyone pale.
