Shen Bin is extremely frustrated now.
He was completely defeated by Zhu Xuan, and was completely defeated. He didn't even have a chance to recover, and he sat on the chair in despair.
"what to do?"
"What else can I do?"
There is absolutely nothing we can do now.
The housekeepers who were following him had no choice. They should not have gone against Zhu Xuan in the first place.
Zhu Xuan didn't arrest the Shen family directly, which was considered a kindness. Shen Bin had done so much, so Zhu Xuan let the Jin Yiwei go ransack the house, which was totally fine.
What's more, Lao Zhu's family didn't have much favorable impression of the Shen family.
"Master, let's go back!"
The steward said: "The water in silk is too deep. When the trade zone is established in the future, we will clear out the inventory and continue our water transportation."
Where the water is too deep, they cannot hold it.
But water transport is possible. Without silk and other profits, we can still survive on water transport.
"Let's go back!"
Shen Bin said weakly.
It seems that he has accepted his fate.
A private businessman cannot defeat the grandson of the Ming Dynasty emperor.
——
The recruitment took more than a day.
All the weavers on the parade were recruited by Zhu Xuan, and there were many weavers from other places. They heard that they could get two taels of silver a month, so they came to apply for the job.
In response, Zhu Xuan accepted it all.
He really wants as many people as they come.
"Cen Jing, those weavers, arranged for some people to go to factories, and then arranged some people to go to garment factories to train them how to use sewing machines and how to sew clothes." Zhu Xuan said.
Those weavers basically know how to sew clothes.
But the clothes of the Ming Dynasty are different from those in the West. Machine sewing and handwork are also very different, and they need to be re-cultivated.
As for the clothing templates, etc., they have been prepared during this period of time.
Zhu Xuan recruited a large number of workers, which the silk reeling and spinning factories could not accommodate, and more were prepared for the garment factory.
Labor-intensive industries do require a lot of workers.
"Over at the clothing factory, it's almost ready."
Cen Jing nodded and said: "I can arrange for people to go in for training within five days at the fastest. The problem is not big. However, His Highness's machine production has completely disrupted the market in Jiangnan. Many businessmen can be fine now, but their future livelihood will be It is possible that His Highness disowns it.”
Scholars, farmers, industry and commerce.
Ancient society was not very friendly to businessmen.
But without businessmen, it is absolutely impossible.
It has cut off the livelihood of many businessmen. Many big businessmen will not be fine for the time being, but some small workshops may quickly go bankrupt and lose everything.
It will cause economic chaos in the Jiangnan region.
If the economy is in chaos, the consequences will be serious, and civil unrest is possible.
"I'm not doing this randomly. I'm not disrupting for the sake of disrupting. I have a second plan."
Zhu Xuan asked: "Are all the other businessmen from the Jiangnan area here?"
Cen Jing said: "It's almost time to arrive, but they know about His Highness and are all worried. Your Highness represents the Ming Dynasty official, and they don't dare to do anything."
"Just come."
Zhu Xuan nodded and said: "Let's make arrangements. I will meet with them the day after tomorrow and hold a meeting."
"good!"
Cen Jing nodded.
All businessmen who came to Wu County quickly received an invitation letter.
Among them was Shen Bin, who was invited by Zhu Xuan.
Together they came to the largest inn in the city, which was booked by Zhu Xuan in advance and the first floor was transformed into a large conference room.
Seeing Zhu Xuan appear, they had to get up and salute.
"I believe you must have hated me very much recently. You hate me so much that you want to crush me to ashes."
After Zhu Xuan appeared on the stage, he said this first.
Destroy people's wealth and kill their parents.
Although the businessmen here all thought so, no one dared to nod or show it. After hearing Zhu Xuan's words, they felt restless and broke out in cold sweat, for fear that after Zhu Xuan finished speaking, Jin Yiwei would chop them up. All of them were chopped down.
"However, I am not really competing with the people for profit."
"I have done so much, but some of you want to resist me, and you have to use some means to subdue those who resist."
"Actually, I am serious. I want to guide your foreign trade and bring you benefits."
"After all, you have benefited, so you can pay more taxes to enrich the Ming Dynasty's treasury, and then use the taxes back to build Ming Dynasty."
Zhu Xuan's words made Shen Bin, who was sitting below, break into a cold sweat.
He was the one who resisted the most fiercely, and Zhu Xuan's words were alluding to him.
If Zhu Xuan wants to settle accounts, the Shen family will be the first to escape.
Maybe like Shen Wansan, everything is over.
Zhu Xuan didn't settle accounts, and there was no need to argue with Shen Bin about it.
During this period of time, Shen Bin has been taught enough lessons.
"I invite you to attend the meeting mainly for three things."
"First, I believe you all know that I established the Panyu Chamber of Commerce in Panyu, and I also plan to establish a Jiangnan Chamber of Commerce. As for the membership fee, it will be temporarily waived and recorded in the account."
"If you are interested in joining the association, the Chamber of Commerce will provide resources so that you can make money and have a surplus, and then you can pay the membership fee."
Zhu Xuan said again.
They have all heard of the Panyu Chamber of Commerce, and the membership fee requires five hundred thousand taels.
Some big businessmen still think it doesn't matter and can afford the money, but there are many small businessmen here who feel that Alexander, fortunately, joining or not is voluntary.
"second!"
"You should be aware of the silk reeling factory, manufacturing factory and garment factory I established in the Jiangnan area. All machine production has taken away a lot of your business and even cut off your financial resources."
"In order to maintain your financial path, I am going to set up a Jiangnan clothing company."
"I will also issue shares to the outside world. You can use funds to invest in the shares, or you can use goods to invest in the shares. As long as you join, you can operate with me."
"In the future, when the company generates income, dividends will be distributed according to your subscription shares..."
Zhu Xuan said that he still had to explain terms such as companies and shares.
After hearing the second thing, the businessmen present were in an uproar.
They were whispering to each other and discussing.
Some people are talking about it. They didn't expect His Highness to be so kind. Not only did he not fight for benefits, he seemed to give them away.
However, some people think that Zhu Xuan is illegally raising funds by doing this, just tricking them into investing money, and they will have nothing in the end.
Various sounds appeared in the venue.
There were discussions and everything.
"Quiet first, I will give you time to discuss it later."
Zhu Xuan patted the table.
When the businessman calmed down, Zhu Xuan continued: "The third thing will also be the most important thing."
"I can give you those machines."
"But it's not free. You need to charge money. This money will be credited first. We will also collect it after you generate pure profits."
"We will provide the raw materials for the machine to generate power at a price higher than the cost."
"All machine maintenance, future repairs, and machine usage training will be provided free of charge."
"how?"
The third thing is big news.
What businessmen are afraid of is the production efficiency of machines.
Now that they can all have machines, the venue was filled with excitement and surprised voices echoed.
