After coming out of Tian's house, Wang Dayu followed Liang Jiabin closely and whispered: "I didn't expect that the tiger-character flag has opened up the entire Monan business route. The chamber of commerce will make more and more money. I'm afraid the Xuanfu merchants who will join the chamber of commerce in the future will There will be more.”
"It seems that in the future, the business community of Xuanfu will be dominated by the Huziqi family, and even the Fan family will be far inferior." Liang Binbin sighed with emotion.
He knew that whoever could make money with businessmen like Xuanfu would be on whose side these businessmen would side.
Wang Dayu said: "It's a pity that Liu Heng offended the governor of Datong. Otherwise, the Tiger Character Flag could really bring the people of the Chamber of Commerce to make money together."
"Forget about the governor of Datong. He has been in office for so long and has been unable to deal with Liu Heng, who is white. He seems to be useless." Liang Jiabin said with a hint of disdain in his tone.
Wang Dayu said: "What should we do next? Should we continue to win over the shareholders of the Chamber of Commerce?"
"Take a break for the time being." Liang Binbin said: "The Governor of Datong has taken care of Liu Heng, and you and I will find a way to become the president of the Chamber of Commerce. The Governor of Datong cannot take care of Liu Heng. If we continue to be the directors, we will still make a lot of money. "
"It's all up to you." Wang Dayu nodded, and then said, "What happened to Tian Shenglan? I thought he would be the vice president of the Chamber of Commerce, but I didn't expect that the vice president was Chen Liyun. Tian Shenglan eventually lost his position as director. ”
"Tian Shenglan is asking for it, but what I didn't expect is that Hu Ziqi actually planted an informant in the Chamber of Commerce. Otherwise, it would be impossible to discover what Tian Shenglan did so quickly. You and I should be more careful when doing things in the future." Liang Binbin pinched his hand. He chins himself, thoughtfully.
Wang Dayu on the side said: "What did Tian Shenglan do behind the back of the Chamber of Commerce?"
Liang Jiabin sarcastically said: "Tian Shenglan sold goods to the Fan family at high prices, and also had people make false accounts and get an extra share of money from the chamber of commerce. He thought he was doing it secretly, but he didn't know that he had already fallen into the eyes of someone with serious intentions."
"He is snatching food from the tiger's mouth!" Wang Dayu took a breath and added, "Has he forgotten who Liu Heng of the tiger-character flag was and dared to make money from Liu Heng? He is really tired of living. .”
"This kind of person is too greedy." Liang Jiajia curled his lips disdainfully, and immediately said, "I just didn't expect that Huziqi would take action so quickly. He directly kicked Tian Shenglan away from the director's seat and sent a Mr. Zhao will take charge of the Chamber of Commerce."
The two people's carriages stopped outside Tian's house, and they each got into their own carriages.
Zhao Yutu did not stay in the Tian family for long, so he left the Tian family.
Chen Liyun, Tian Shenglan, and the Tian family's housekeeper were left in the study.
Chen Liyun looked embarrassed.
I originally thought that this time when Zhao Yutu came to Xuanfu, he would appoint Tian Shenglan as the vice president of the Chamber of Commerce, but he didn't expect that the position of vice president would fall on him. At this time, facing Tian Shenglan, he felt uncomfortable all over.
Tian Shenglan didn't look very good, and said to Chen Liyun indifferently: "Vice President Chen, do you want to stay and have dinner together?"
"Oh, no, I still have something to do at home, so I won't disturb Mr. Tian and I'll take my leave." Chen Liyun cupped his hands and said goodbye.
Tian Shenglan squinted her eyes and looked at Chen Liyun's retreating figure.
The steward of the Tian family who was standing nearby said: "This vice president should have been yours, but now I have got an advantage from Chen Liyun."
"That's not because you were careless and someone caught you." Tian Shenglan glared at Butler Tian fiercely.
Butler Tian hurriedly defended: "Master, I am wronged!"
"You are unjust." Tian Shenglan scolded, "How many times have I told you that things must be done secretly and cannot be discovered. If you do it secretly, how could the people in the Tiger Flag know about it so quickly?"
Butler Tian whispered: "Could it be the news leaked from the Fan family?"
"You think everyone else is as stupid as you." Tian Shenglan glared and said, "As long as the Fan family still wants to take goods from me, they will not let me out. You really think everyone else is as stupid as you."
"Yes, yes, yes, that's what the master said." Butler Tian nodded in response.
Tian Shenglan picked up the tureen, took a big sip of tea, and then said: "It's okay now, sir, my vice president is gone, and even the director's seat is lost. From now on, I can only work for the Chamber of Commerce honestly, but I can't do anything anymore." I can’t interfere in the affairs of the Chamber of Commerce.”
My heart is filled with anger.
"Sir, I really feel aggrieved for you." Butler Tian said: "Sir, the Chamber of Commerce in Xuanfu was founded by you. That Liu Heng did nothing, but he got the position of president for nothing. That's fine, now. Now I don’t even give you a vice president. I think they are not doing this because I sell goods to the Fan family. They want to kill the donkey. They know that you have high prestige in the chamber of commerce and are afraid that you will compete with them. The position of president of the Chamber of Commerce.”
"You're a fucking donkey." Tian Shenglan cursed.
"It's a small slip of the tongue." Steward Tian slapped his cheek lightly with his hand, and then said, "But what I said is true. They just kicked you away because they saw that you were useless."
Tian Shenglan had a dark face.
He was also extremely dissatisfied with Zhao Yutu's treatment of him. After all, he also founded the Chamber of Commerce. Many businessmen joined the Chamber of Commerce through his hand. Even if there was no credit, there was still hard work.
"Master, since the people from the Tiger Flag have treated you like this, why should we stay in the Chamber of Commerce and suffer this anger." Butler Tian looked at Tian Shenglan cautiously.
Tian Shenglan said angrily: "Where do you want me to go if I don't stay in the Chamber of Commerce? Didn't you hear what Zhao Yutu said before? The trade routes in Monan Mongolia have been controlled by the Tiger Flag. As long as I stay in the Chamber of Commerce, the Tian family can rely on The Chamber of Commerce makes money.”
"Master." Steward Tian said, "Who in our Xuan Mansion doesn't know that the Chamber of Commerce was founded by you, Master, and Liu Heng of the Tiger Character Banner is the one who enjoys the benefits. I think they are deliberately humiliating the Master by keeping you in the Chamber of Commerce."
Tian Shenglan said nothing.
From being a director of the Chamber of Commerce to becoming an ordinary shareholder of the Chamber of Commerce, he really felt a fire in his heart.
Steward Tian added: "Without the Chamber of Commerce, it's not like our Tian family can't make money. Sir, why do you stay in the Chamber of Commerce and suffer this anger!"
"What do you mean?" Tian Shenglan looked up at him.
Just listen to Tian Guanjia continue to say: "I heard that the Fan family secretly cooperated with Hou Jin in exchange for things like Dongzhu ginseng from Liaodong, as well as a lot of gold and silver. Now Hou Jin has established a firm foothold in Liaodong. Master, you can definitely cooperate with the Fan family."
"Fan family?" Tian Shenglan frowned.
Housekeeper Tian said: "Now that Hou Jin has conquered most of Liaodong, there must be a lot of things looted. The grain and cloth can still be used for food and clothing, but those gold and silver ornaments and clothing will have to be spent. If our Tian family and Hou Jin Cooperate and use the smuggled goods in exchange for those gold and silver ornaments, bring them back to the Ming Dynasty and sell them, and the profits you can make from this return can be even greater by following the Tiger Flag smuggling grassland."
"How did you learn about these things?" Tian Shenglan asked.
Butler Tian whispered: "Once I had a drink with the housekeeper of the Fan family's outer courtyard. The other party drank too much and accidentally said these things, which made Xiao remember it in his heart."
"No wonder the Fan family would pay a high price to buy goods from me." Tian Shenglan thought thoughtfully.
Steward Tian advised: "Sir, this is a rare opportunity. If we can smuggle goods with the Fan family to the Houjin, we will make more money. It is better for you to stay in the Chamber of Commerce and suffer the anger."
"Let me think about this matter." Tian Shenglan looked thoughtful.
