Chapter 142 [The prototype of the first chamber of commerce]

"You want to see our boss?"

The waiter in the shop became a little vigilant, and thought, "Isn't it here to ask for trouble?"
Zhou Zhang was in the restaurant, but the waiter didn't say that he had finally got such a good job, and he didn't want to lose it because of his carelessness.

Some of the six people saw the scruples of the waiter, and said, "We want to talk to Boss Zhou about business."

The six of them had never heard of Zhou Zhang before, but only in the last few days.The most important thing, and what the six of them valued the most was the relationship between the general and Zhou Zhang.

Today, Nanhai County, Cangwu County, Hepu County and other three counties are unilaterally blocked from the outside world, making it difficult for them to do business.

No, they are now anxious to figure out how to communicate with the general.Zhou Zhang has now become their best choice. Zhou Zhang is also a merchant, so he can get along and communicate better.

"Looking for business with the boss?" The waiter was dubious, and then said: "Guest officers, please wait a moment, I will inform the shopkeeper first."

Zhou Zhang didn't often stay at [Drunken Immortal Wine House], so he found a trusted aide to be the shopkeeper and take charge of the management.

The waiter in the shop knew about this kind of thing, so he had to inform the shopkeeper first, and he couldn't go directly past the shopkeeper to find the boss.

"Okay, we'll wait here. By the way, bring us some food."

One of the six said.

These six people were big merchants traveling between Jiaozhou and the Central Plains, some selling salt and iron, some selling cloth, some doing grain business, some selling livestock, some selling fruits and rare items.

Two of the six were merchants in the Central Plains, and they were hesitant to run into Lu Bu who captured the three counties and could not get out now.Among these two people, one is a cloth merchant; the other is a dealer who sells livestock, mainly cattle and horses.

The other four, namely salt merchants, iron merchants, grain merchants and fruit merchants, are the largest merchants in Jiaozhou.

After Lu Bu captured Nanhai County, Cangwu County, and Hepu County, he not only prohibited the situation, but also forcibly took over the salt fields and iron mines in the three counties, and did not allow private direct mining.

The Han Dynasty implemented the monopoly of salt and iron, but with the corruption of the court, many salt farms and iron mines had already fallen into private hands, or were jointly owned by officials and businessmen.

Before Lu Bu came to Jiaozhou, the six of them had a good relationship with the government, and their business flourished.However, who would have thought that a great general would suddenly appear with such powerful means.

Now, they had no choice but to find a relationship, hoping to talk to General Lu Bu so that they could continue their original business.

Soon, the shopkeeper of [Zuixian Wine House] came out, came to the six people, looked at the six people and asked directly: "I am the shopkeeper here, I don't know if the six want our boss, what's the matter?". In addition, the six Can you tell us your history?"

Now that Zhou Zhang has become a general, most people don't want to see him, so he asked the shopkeeper to ask about the situation, and he rarely sees people who are not important.

Zhou Zhang didn't show up, but just sent a shopkeeper to deal with it.This made the six people look bad, which was obviously putting on airs.

"Boss Zhou, you really have a distinguished status. It's hard to see each other." One of the six people complained dissatisfiedly.

These words made the shopkeeper very uncomfortable to hear, and said in a bad tone: "You guys, are you here to make trouble?"

The atmosphere instantly became tense.

At this time, the leader of the six stood up and said kindly: "I was misunderstood, we are indeed here to discuss business with Boss Zhou. I am from Cangwu County, a salt merchant in Jiaozhou, and my name is [Yan Xi]. "

As he said that, he pointed to the other five people and introduced them one by one: "This is also from Cangwu County, he is in the iron business, and his name is [Liu Jing]; this is in the grain business, he is also from Cangwu County, and his name is [Tian Jiang] 】."

"And this one is in the business of melons and fruits. He is from Jiaozhi County, and his name is [Fu Kun]. The last two are from the Central Plains. He is [Tan Yan], who is in the cloth business, and he is in the livestock business. [Utolatu]."

"The six of us are fairly well-known in Jiaozhou. This time, we came here specially to visit Boss Zhou."

Yan Xi? .Liu Jing? . Tian Jiang?The names of these three people are familiar to the shopkeeper, especially Tian Jiang. The Tian family also has a grain store in Panyu City, but they are one of the largest grain merchants in Jiaozhou.

Why did these big businessmen suddenly come to Zhou Zhang?The shopkeeper was puzzled, but his attitude changed a lot, and he said, "Wait a minute, I'll inform Boss Zhou right away."

Soon after, the six were invited to the VIP room by Zhou Zhang.At that time, Zhou Zhang was shocked when he heard the names of the six people. Except for the two merchants from the Central Plains, the other four were all outstanding merchants in Jiaozhou.

Zhou Zhang did not expect that he would also have the opportunity to meet these big merchants.And it was these big and famous merchants who came to him in person.

This is something to be proud of, Zhou Zhang thought in his heart: It seems that being able to be appreciated by the general is really a blessing from a previous life, and it is an incomparable honor.

After chatting with the six people, Zhou Zhang knew their reason for coming.They just wanted Zhou Zhang to recommend them to the general, and for this they promised Zhou Zhang a lot of benefits.

And these benefits have already moved Zhou Zhang.More importantly, Zhou Zhang needs to get acquainted with such a big merchant.He expected the general to give him an official position, but he hoped that his business would grow bigger and richer.

"It's hard to guess what the general is thinking. The six of us will stay in Panyu City for a few days first. Let me talk about the general's tone first, and I will try my best to let you see the general," Zhou Zhang promised.

"Then there is Boss Lao Zhou, we are waiting for your good news." Yan Xi, a salt merchant, said with a smile.

Zhou Zhang was going to meet the general at the general's mansion in the evening, and report about the opening of [Zuixian Wine House] today.

At this time, in the General's Mansion, Chen Gong, who Lv Bu had found, was showing Chen Gong the meeting hall that he ordered people to follow his will.

Lu Bu had this idea long ago, and there is a room dedicated to discussing matters, which is more formal.Moreover, Lu Bu replaced all the desks that should have been visited in the meeting room with newly made chairs and tea tables.

The meeting hall has been expanded and is relatively spacious.There are two rows of chairs and tea tables on the left and right sides of the hall. In general, more than 30 people can be arranged to discuss matters here.

Lu Bu's position is of course directly above, a chair and a desk for writing, which is convenient for placing things.Behind it is a big map of Jiaozhou.

In addition, these potted plants are placed in the front and back of the meeting hall, giving people a clear feeling.

Lu Bu came to Chen Gong not specifically to look at the newly arranged conference hall, but to discuss how to use merchants to travel between Jiaozhou and the Central Plains, and obtain information on the Central Plains from them.

He intends to find a reliable person, organize the famous merchants in the three counties, and set up a private chamber of commerce, so that he can use this chamber of commerce to do many things for himself.
