Chapter 351. Xuzhou Guild Hall

Su Shuang is really a figure! If it were in later generations, he would probably be one of the real estate tycoons or Internet tycoons. It depends on his investment vision! In the early days, he sold horses and then jointly invested with Zhang Shiping. Liu Bei's troops and equipment that Liu Bei raised in Pingyuan County were mostly funded by two people. After following Liu Bei to Xuzhou, Liu Bei was beaten away and he stayed. Now from the sea trade from Xuzhou to Qingzhou, the Chen family is the number one in grain, and the Su Shuang family is the number one in import and export of various groceries!

He has dabbled in the Liaodong ginseng, mink, and antler medicinal materials market that has been opened in the south and opened to the north!

Especially now that Lu Ji is in charge of management, Wang Hou’s own trade bank is also doing a big deal with him, the sugar and tea business! Use the sugar and wine produced in the island city to go to Jiangnan for top-notch tea.

Tea is so important. How did the British conquer the world in later generations? One hand of black tea and the other hand of rifle will kill the world! Although this thing is full, it is rich in several vitamins. Drinking tea regularly can prevent multiple diseases and epidemic diseases. It is equivalent to putting an insurance sticker for the army when used in marching.

Later generations, Li Zicheng, who captured the capital city so quickly, why was he beaten so quickly by the Qing Dynasty? It was because of the great plague in North China at that time. Whether it was the Ming army or the Shun army, their combat effectiveness dropped rapidly after infection. The Qing army picked up a bargain, and the disease of Qiuliang entering the pass was weakened. Moreover, the main force of the Qing army disappeared into the capital of the severe epidemic area, but chased Li Zicheng and slashed his butt and avoided the epidemic.

It can be seen that the epidemic has even more threats to the army than ten thousand enemies.

However, even such a capable businessman is still not a big deal in front of Wang Hou. It can be seen that the status of businessmen in this era is really too low. Wang Hou called him to the single room in the college cafeteria. The old guy with a lot of beards couldn't help but bow with his fists and asked for advice in fear.

"I don't know what instructions do the provincial governors have to ask for villains? But do you want villains to sponsor military supplies?"

In the eyes of warlords, merchants are always raised as pigs. Now they have a good idea to discuss cutting you a piece of pork. If you don’t know how to politely, then kill the pig! Su Shuang is mentally prepared.

However, Wang Hou's words made him unable to help but eat a pound, which made him confused. Wang Hou was still somewhat unhappy and shouted: "Does this official look like he is poor and can't raise a military force?"

Before Su Shuang could tremble in fear, Wang Hou quickly expressed his purpose again.

"The governor of this province wants to recruit you as an official in Qingzhou!"

The most successful businessman these days is the Mi family. For Liu Bei, he asked people to give money to his sister and his family to fight with him. In the end, he became a leader and a general. And now, the Mi family has not recovered the cost yet!

In contrast, Su Shuang didn't think that he had a big business with Qingzhou, he really didn't make any special contributions to Wang Hou. Wang Hou actually wanted to give him an official position and recruit him into an official position, which made him feel like he was falling from the sky.

However, this old guy is really a successful businessman. After a moment of excitement, he asked solemnly with his fists.

"I wonder what the governor of the state has to do?"

"There is a city Cao Ran under the command of the Qingzhou Mufu. The rank is 400 stones, and the number of people is uncertain! I plan to recruit you as the city Cao Ran, but you are not the only one. Among the merchants from Xuzhou, I want to recruit three city Cao Ran general merchants to be responsible for the import and export trade tax rates of this island city port!"

"Your duty is to organize all import and export merchants in Xuzhou into a guild. You have to organize personnel to investigate the market, specify import and export prices, and you will collect taxes. From then on, my tax department will only care about you asking for money. For tax evasion and tax evasion, I will also grant you the right to punish you, and you can impose a fine or expel him from the guild. As long as it is my Wang Hou's port, non-guild merchant ships from Xuzhou cannot be docked and operated!"

This right is said to be a small matter, and only care about some businessmen's affairs, but it can be said to be a big deal! Almost all the businessmen who do business in Qingxu are under his control. Su Shuang's old face couldn't help but become particularly solemn.

A while ago, he also heard the wind, next to the Black Port near the island city, and the incident of tax evasion made Jia Xu very angry. It seemed that Wang Hou had begun to deal with the port matters this time.

To be honest, this official position is really a double-edged sword. If you become the general businessman, your family's status will be stable. But if you do it seriously and conscientiously, you will offend your peers, especially the peers of the higher-ranking geniuses in Qingzhou. Wang Hou first supported him in Xuzhou businessmen just to kill the chickens and scare the monkeys from those Qingzhou geniuses who are foolish. If you don't do it seriously, Wang Qingzhou will not open a good hall! It will be difficult to get out of here.

In fact, it’s okay not to agree! Wang Hou came to the door in person! He still wanted to survive in this area if he didn’t agree? But it was a big deal. Su Shuang was really confused and embarrassed for a moment.

Seeing his hesitant look, Wang Hou had to continue throwing out the bait.

"If Mr. Su finished this job, I would like to ask you for title in the court. The county is a man and a county can be negotiated!"

"Thank you for your support from the Palace Master! The villain..., the official will go and do the job!"

Why are the people willing to join the army to fight these days? Making merits and titles on the battlefield is the fastest way to improve their family's social status! Now it's okay to do business! From a lowly businessman to a noble jazz! Who can refuse to agree? Without hesitation for almost a moment, Su Shuang agreed with his fists.

Seeing the old boy feeling in pain and happiness, his face was as squeezing as Parkinson. He went out while trembling, Wang Hou couldn't help but sighed heavily in relief.

Or the British, what is the driving force that they are ambitious and conquered most of the world? Business! If these merchants are raised, their ambition and enterprising spirit are much better than those of the landlords who are willing to be rich and happy. Since they have made plans, they must build a class that supports their war machines in the future. Then it is urgent to enhance the status of these merchants and let them follow them to Liaodong to explore and march towards the grassland.

As for sorting out the chaotic import and export order of the island city port, it is still secondary!

The Xuzhou businessman was arrested from Su Shuang, and he was considered a big start. When he set up the Xuzhou Guild Hall sign, the policy was tilted towards him. Those exiled or local aristocratic families in the same place should not be able to sit still! Who will be selected as their spokesperson?

Tian? No, that old guy Tian Rang is so cunning! He needs to choose someone who has the ability but needs to rely on his own power!

While Wang Hou was pinching his chin and thinking, he was next to the newly built Laoshan Academy. On the hillside, his own small separation was also busy.

"Schoolbag! Luggage! Lunchbox! Tableware! All are all! Look, to play with you, your father has spent so much effort to build such a big academy for you!"

Changle is going to go to school here and push all his work. It is rare that Cao Hongjie is like a good wife and mother, helping her to pack things while coaxing her. Unfortunately, she is really Wang Hou's daughter. She is flirting with her cute big eyes, and Changle is humming with disdain.

"It's not that you and Dad have something to do with again, so I left me here!"

"Uh~ I can't say that, aren't you, Aunt Zhen, accompanying you!"

The smile froze there. Cao Hongjie, the irresponsible mother, smiled and quibbled, and Changle rolled her eyes again.

On the other side, Zhen Mi, who was packing things, was humming a little tune. When Wang Hou had a small rope and a small whip with wax oil, she thought she would have to be locked up when she arrived in Qingzhou. She never expected that Wang Hou would give her a job as a teacher and teach poetry at Laoshan College. This little separation was also where she and Changle lived.

Female teacher! She really feels like a bird in a cage flying out of the cage!!

"Aunt Zhen! Someone is looking for it outside!"

However, just as Zhen Mi was packing her luggage, the dull little Deng Ai ran up!
