Zhang Zhiyao stood still and looked at Zhong Yong with a half-smile, "President Zhong stayed as the president of the Northern Hubei Chamber of Commerce for three years. During this period, he suppressed his peers, dominated the market, and monopolized the entire cloth market..."
As Zhang Zhiyao spoke more and more, Zhong Yong's face became more and more ugly.
Unexpectedly, Zhong Yong actually knelt in front of Zhang Zhiyao in public, choked with sobs and confessed: "Sir, the common people are guilty, the common people are guilty!"
As he spoke, he clasped his fists at the others, "Everyone, Zhong has indeed been sorry to you for the past three years, but... Zhong also has his own difficulties!"
"Oh? What's your problem?" Zhang Zhiyao asked calmly.
No matter what Zhong Yong says, it is impossible that the position of president will fall to him or any other faction of the Zhong family today.
Zhong Yong changed from kneeling to sitting, lifted up the hem of his gown, exposed his calves and said: "Three years ago, the grassroots were elected as the president of the Chamber of Commerce. I wanted to lead everyone to make the business in northern Hubei bigger and stronger, but the grassroots rushed to I fell off the horse while shipping..."
According to Zhong Yong, his leg was seriously broken and he had to rest at home for a full year before he recovered. After that, he was miserable at home for another two years because of family scandals. Looking back, three years have passed and he has nothing. Not done for the Chamber of Commerce.
"...The grassroots people know that they are guilty of serious crimes, so after inquiries from all parties, they feel that Miss Shen Liu is a person worthy of a big responsibility, so they unite with the merchants who have the same idea as the grassroots people to vote for her."
After hearing his words, Shen Qingqian felt that they were extremely ridiculous.
No matter whether his leg is broken or not, no matter what big things happen in his family, the Chamber of Commerce's affairs can't be ignored, right? And the sudden selection of her as president is problematic no matter how you think about it.
"So, President Zhong really considers the Chamber of Commerce?" Zhang Zhiyao remained unmoved.
At this time, Zhong Yong was sweating on his forehead. He opened his mouth to argue a few more words, but Zhang Zhiyao gave him no chance.
Zhang Zhiyao took out a piece of bright yellow cloth and unfolded it, "The imperial court has issued an order. From now on, the Northern Hubei Chamber of Commerce will be under the direct management of the government. You are not allowed to have any objections!"
After reading it, he displayed this instruction in front of everyone, and asked the people around him to walk around the people present.
"The Northern Hubei Chamber of Commerce is now under the control of the imperial court. No matter what plans you had before, you have to listen to the imperial court now. Do you understand?" Zhang Zhiyao looked at Zhong Yong condescendingly, "I have selected the best candidate for the chamber of commerce. The right person to manage.”
"Who is it?" Zhong Yong asked subconsciously.
Zhang Zhiyao looked at Li Junxin, "Boss Li, you won't refuse to work for the court, right?"
"The common people take your orders!" Li Junxin quickly bowed and said.
Zhang Zhiyao glanced at the other people in the room and said, "Don't be nervous, everyone. This is a special period. I and the general are also afraid that someone will take the opportunity to drive up prices and disrupt the normal life of the people in northern Hubei, so they have temporarily taken over the Chamber of Commerce. "
He looked around and then said: "I assure you that the Northern Hubei Chamber of Commerce will only make your business better and better in the future. I also ask for your cooperation. If anyone insists on challenging the authority of me and the general, …”
He specifically stared at a few merchants belonging to the Zhong family, "Then come and give it a try, I will never be lenient!"
After speaking, he nodded to Li Junxin, "I still have official duties to attend to, so I'll leave this to you."
Li Junxin quickly responded, "Sir, walk slowly."
Zhang Zhiyao led a group of soldiers away cheering.
"President Zhong, please hand over the seal of the Chamber of Commerce." Li Junxin helped Zhong Yong up from the ground and said to him with a smile.
"Today's eight chapters are complete [26+1+7]. I will make up for what I owe later. Don't worry. I have been pestered by two mythical beasts at home these past two days, and my time and energy have been scattered~"
