"Oh, isn't this Miss Shenmei Shen!"
All the royal merchants turned their heads and looked at the frown in front of them with complicated eyes.
There was surprise, amusement, and naturalness in their eyes, and they also had a lot of meaningful flavor.
"Today is a sponsorship meeting for imperial merchants. Why is Miss Shen here to join in the fun?"
"As far as I know, Miss Shen is not among the thirty-four imperial merchants in the capital!"
"No, there should be thirty-one imperial merchants now. Zhou Yingkai, Chu Wanliang and Chen Xin have all been removed from the list..."
"If Miss Shen sees that the position of Royal Merchant is vacant and wants to get a share of the pie, she'd better go back early!"
"Those who can be emperor merchants are all people who have the world at heart! How can you, a little girl, understand this?"
As soon as these words came out, the outside of Changchunfang was filled with a cheerful atmosphere.
Most of these businessmen were middle-aged men in their forties or fifties. Facing such a young woman, they naturally felt a little dissatisfied.
Their eyes greedily glanced at Shen Mei's proud figure, but from the bottom of their hearts, they did not recognize Shen Mei's ability.
Shen Mei was not a soft persimmon who could be manipulated by others. She smiled lightly when she heard the very unfriendly speech just now.
"As far as I know, the reason why the first batch of imperial merchants appeared in Daliang is because the emperor today is trying to encourage merchants who actively pay taxes and pay taxes!"
"My Shen family has been doing business for so many years, and there has never been a time when we have not actively paid taxes."
“It’s even less likely that there will be any tax surcharge!”
"As for those who care about the world..."
Having said this, Shen Mei smiled softly.
"Who said that only you men are the ones who truly care about the world?"
"Don't forget, people like Zhou Yingkai and Chu Wanliang are also your men!"
"Are they just some big businessmen who have the world in mind?"
As soon as Shen Mei retorted, the faces of all the businessmen suddenly changed!
Although they knew that Shen Mei was very good at what she said, she was not lenient with her words.
But I didn't expect that Shen Mei's few words could render everyone speechless!
After a long while, someone finally sneered and said, "Miss Shen has someone behind her, and she speaks in a tough tone!"
"No wonder Miss Shen came uninvited today. It turns out that Prince Yourong personally invited her!"
"It must be Miss Shen's extraordinary skill that makes His Highness so comfortable!"
"If this were not the case, how could Miss Shen possibly come to this negotiation meeting exclusively for the royal merchants?"
"you……"
Hearing this, Shen Mei blushed instantly.
It wasn't because she was so shy, it was just that these words were so offensive that Shen Mei blushed instantly!
These people are making fun of themselves, and that doesn't matter.
After her father's death, Shen Mei supported the Shen family alone. She heard more and more unpleasant words than before.
She has long been accustomed to other people's malicious remarks.
You can even turn a deaf ear and turn a blind eye!
However, if they wanted to speak ill of Prince Rong, Shen Mei would immediately lose his composure.
Of course, there is no need to say more about Prince Rong’s support and support to him.
But they use their own malice to speculate on the good deeds of others.
Shen Mei couldn't bear this!
"you……"
"You said this as if you had seen it with your own eyes. Why, were you all there at the time?"
A very familiar voice sounded behind Shen Mei, and she suddenly turned around, only to see Prince Rong Song Huan appearing in front of her!
I saw a faint smile on his face, but the smile didn't reach his eyes, making it a bit intimidating.
Shen Mei quickly leaned down and saluted Song Huan: "Meet Prince Rong!"
Seeing Shen Mei's actions, all the businessmen were stunned and stayed on the spot!
The young man in front of me, dressed in commoner clothes, is actually the most powerful prince in the dynasty, Prince Rong?
At this moment, almost everyone can have an egg stuffed into their mouths!
"Meet Prince Rong!"
Everyone fell to their knees, not daring to raise their heads, for fear of making Prince Rong dissatisfied again.
After all, who would have thought that Prince Rong, who was born into a noble family and held great power, would dress up like a white-faced scholar!
Even Liu Qing, who was following him, was dressed more gorgeously!
Before Song Huan went out today, he originally planned to dress more luxuriously to better show his identity.
But for some reason, wearing the gorgeous clothes made Song Huan feel a little uncomfortable.
The complicated costumes were like layers of shackles, tightly wrapped around Song Huan's body, making him feel uncomfortable all over.
On the contrary, Song Huan felt relaxed and natural in the common clothes he was used to wearing!
Besides, when I thought about it, today's discussion meeting was originally to finalize sponsorship matters for various factories, and it was a matter closely related to ordinary people.
In this case, Song Huan simply came to the banquet wearing this inconspicuous commoner.
I just didn't expect that as soon as I arrived at the scene, I heard this extremely unfriendly speech!
Seeing that Prince Rong had been provoked as soon as they arrived at Changchunfang, the businessmen who had just spoken could not help but lie on the ground and tremble.
Shen Mei was afraid that her affairs would delay the meeting, so she hurriedly pleaded with Song Huan: "Your Majesty, these bosses were just joking with me."
"I don't mean any disrespect to you!"
"If there are too many conflicts, please forgive them!"
Since Shen Mei took the initiative to plead for mercy, Song Huan naturally had nothing to say.
"You have to be moderate when joking. Isn't it a little inappropriate to just talk about a little girl's pornographic accent casually?"
Hearing that Song Huan's tone was a little loose, everyone hurriedly echoed: "Yes, yes, yes!"
"That's what Prince Rong taught you!"
"We will never make such jokes with Miss Shen again!"
"Miss Shen, I'm sorry!"
Seeing several people also apologizing to himself, Shen Mei nodded: "It's okay!"
"Just don't delay this negotiation meeting!"
Seeing Shen Mei's serious look, Song Huan couldn't help but complain in his heart.
Miss Shen, Miss Shen, should I say you are innocent, or should I say you are stupid and adorable!
Don't you see that all the bosses except you are here to compare and socialize?
The thirty-one businessmen present were all gorgeously dressed, and they were obviously here to earn face.
Only Shen Mei travels simply, and it can be seen that she is focused on the business meeting!
"Okay, now that everyone is here, the discussion meeting will begin immediately!"
Song Huan took the lead and walked in the front. Everything in Changchunfang was arranged properly.
I saw that the tables and chairs in the hall on the first floor had been moved aside, and a high platform had been erected in the middle of the hall.
It can be seen that the boss of Changchunfang also put some thought into it.
