After hearing Zhao Feng's words, Zhou Tong and the others looked at him with some confusion.
Zhao Feng cleared his throat and explained with a smile.
"This Jin Baoyuan is not an ordinary person. He has a Baoyuan Chamber of Commerce in the Jiangnan area, which almost monopolizes the business in various industries in Jiangnan."
"It is no exaggeration to say that the people in Jiangnan must buy all their food, clothing, etc. from this Baoyuan Chamber of Commerce!"
Hearing Zhao Feng's words, Zhou Tong couldn't help but be surprised and said in disbelief.
"Did you never expect that this businessman is so powerful?"
"But even so, I don't necessarily have to see him!"
Zhao Feng smiled and shook his head and said very calmly.
"This Jin Baoyuan has been developing business in the Jiangnan area. This time he suddenly came to Youzhou. It is absolutely impossible that he was attracted by our preferential measures for businessmen."
"For a businessman of his size, no matter where he goes, he can bring a lot of tax revenue to the local area, so it is impossible for those officials to let him go. This time he comes here, maybe he will be here. Develop your own business.”
Hearing this, Zhou Tong became even more puzzled.
"Since he can't move all his controversies here, he just wants to develop his business here. To put it bluntly, he comes here to make money, then why do you have to see him?"
You must know that because Zhou Tong's fiefdom developed very well, not only did the merchants make money here, but it also boosted the economic level of the place, making many people's families richer.
Therefore, many businessmen have opened their own industries here, which has had a certain impact on local businesses. Zhao Feng did not deal with this matter much before. After all, only tolerance and openness can allow them to developed here.
But if a businessman like Jin Baoyuan comes here to develop, he will definitely not leave any way for other businessmen to survive, and even their previous patient business will be affected to some extent. In this case, let them come here financial resources drained out.
So after hearing this, Zhou Tong had no idea why Zhao Feng valued this Jin Baoyuan so much.
If possible, Zhou Tong would not even let Jin Baoyuan come to his closed place to develop business.
Zhao Feng smiled slightly and introduced Zhou Tong and Chen Rou.
"Remember, there are no permanent enemies or permanent friends in the mall, there are only eternal interests."
"This time Jin Baoyuan came here to develop, he obviously took a fancy to the development trend here. He knew that the future development here will definitely be very good, so he built his business here. Although this will bring us It’s a certain impact, but it also brings us a big opportunity.”
"We were unable to sell our goods further afield before because there were no trade routes, and the Jiangnan area is monolithic, making it difficult for outside businesses to squeeze in and tear open the gap."
"This time Jin Baoyuan comes here, we can let him develop here, and at the same time negotiate cooperation with him on this condition. In this way, our businesses can enter the Jiangnan area."
After hearing Zhao Feng's words, Chen Rou and the others finally understood that Zhao Feng wanted to use the market here in exchange for a larger market in Jiangnan.
You must know that the people in Jiangnan are the most prosperous and have a large population. They have always been synonymous with the wealth of the Zhou Dynasty.
Therefore, if the market here can be opened, it will not matter if the local market is affected. After all, only competition can promote the development of the market.
The market development here is now too stable, so many businessmen have begun to plot against the people.
Only by allowing these businessmen to compete with each other can benefits be given to the people!
After hearing Zhao Feng's explanation, Zhou Tong understood and touched his chin in confusion.
"So after hearing what Mr. Zhao said, I really have to see him."
"But how did he really come here by himself? Does he really value this place very much?"
Zhao Feng thought about it and felt that this might not be possible. After all, it was impossible for a businessman of Jin Baoyuan's size not to see this.
"You let him in first, I will meet him here with you, and the others can go back and have a rest first."
Zhou Tong nodded, waved his hand and asked the disciples to invite Jin Baoyuan in, and then sighed and said disappointedly.
"Mr. Zhao, we originally agreed to go out for fun today, but it didn't count?"
Zhao Feng smiled, took a sip of the tea next to him and said.
"Don't worry, there are plenty of opportunities to go out and play. Let's see what he wants to do first this time."
Just as he was saying this, he heard a cheerful voice coming from outside. Finally, a middle-aged man who looked very capable walked in with a woman who looked somewhat similar.
"The common people came here uninvited, please don't blame Her Royal Highness!"
Jin Baoyuan said this, and walked to Zhou Tong and Zhao Feng with Jinni. He looked at Zhao Feng with some doubts, and then focused on today's protagonist.
Jinni had now returned to her daughter's body, and she bowed politely to Zhou Tong and Zhao Feng.
"The daughter of the people pays homage to Her Royal Highness the Princess!"
As a princess of the Zhou Dynasty, Zhou Tong naturally learned a lot of court etiquette. When she heard this, she waved her hands with a smile and said.
"Shopkeeper Jin is too polite. Please sit down and serve tea!"
Jin Baoyuan sat down very respectfully, and then looked at Zhao Feng with some doubts.
"Your Highness, do you know who this person is?"
Zhou Tong smiled slightly, pointed at Zhao Feng and introduced.
"This is Mr. Zhao from Zhongshushe."
Jin Baoyuan pretended to be very surprised, but he couldn't help but think about it. He didn't expect that his opponent would be so young this time. It seemed that he would be able to win soon this time.
"It turns out to be Mr. Zhao. I have heard about his reputation for a long time, but now I see that he is indeed well-deserved!"
Zhao Feng smiled, cupped his hands, and said politely.
"Wherever, Shopkeeper Jin's famous name is like thunder."
When Zhao Feng and Jin Baoyuan met for the first time, both sides were sizing each other up, but Jin Baoyuan had a trace of contempt in his heart, while Zhao Feng had a trace of thought in his heart.
Zhou Tong smiled slightly, looked at Jin Baoyuan and asked.
"Shopkeeper Jin, I heard that your business in the Jiangnan area is very good. Why did you come to my Youzhou?"
Jin Baoyuan smiled and looked at Zhou Tong sincerely.
"Your Highness, to be honest, I am here specifically to discuss cooperation with you!"
When Zhou Tong heard this, he and Zhao Feng immediately looked at each other.
