"Outstanding businessman in Liyue Port? What is that?"

"I don't know, I can't understand it. This morning, people from the General Affairs Department moved out a sign with names on it. The first one is Feiyun Chamber of Commerce! What do you mean these are all in Liyue Port?

The most outstanding businessman."

In a teahouse, two acquaintances were chatting.

Soon, the content of their chat attracted the interest of others.

"This little brother, what's going on? Can you tell me?"

"Brother, you're welcome. I don't know much about literacy. I just took a quick look at it. It seems that the General Affairs Department has put up a new sign. It says "Outstanding Businessmen of Liyue Port" and then their names. But I don't know what it means specifically.

I no longer know."

"I probably know about this. It's also posted on the nearby bulletin board. I even asked the Qianyan Army on guard."

At this time, another strong man took over the conversation, and moved a chair over to sit down. He continued without any hesitation: "Qian Yanjun said, the names on this are all from the time when Huishan Hall purchased the ore.

, the merchant who sells the most.”

"Hmm? You can get the reputation of an outstanding businessman by selling ore?"

"Why does this sound like child's play?"

Regarding the attitude of everyone wanting to get to the bottom of it, the strong man was also very innocent: "How could I know this? I am just an ordinary citizen and I don't know much about the affairs of those gentlemen, let alone the intentions of the General Affairs Department and Qixing."

Ordinary people don't understand it, but Xingqiu's father somewhat understands it.

Feiyun Chamber of Commerce, in the study room.

"Axu, are you sure?"

"Sir, it's absolutely true. I've read it several times. We are in first place! And the sign is even hanging on the pier. Master, what preparations should we make?"

Looking at A Xu who looked confident in his words, he pondered for a while and then ordered: "Go and pick a good item from the warehouse, prepare a gift, and have it delivered to your mansion."

After saying that, he felt that one item was still not enough, so he quickly added: "Take a few more, don't lose the face of our Feiyun Chamber of Commerce."

"Uh... Master, now the head of your family is Qixing. Isn't it appropriate for us to go up and give gifts like this?"

Now the head of your family is one of the Seven Stars. Even if Liyue does not stipulate that people cannot give gifts to each other, if you send them like this, it will be fine if your family accepts them. If you don't accept them, wouldn't it be a good intention to do something bad?

"That's right. I heard that Xingqiu has been working as a volunteer at your school recently?"

"Yes, sir. Do you need me to find the second young master and come back?"

"Well, you go and tell him to go home and pick out some unique books of paintings and calligraphy. Then you go to the accounting office and get five million molad, and send them to the school together in the name of building a library for the school."

"Okay, sir."

Although A Xu felt a little strange in his heart as to why his master suddenly wanted to give gifts to your family, but since he had been told, there was nothing wrong with following the instructions.

Different from A Xu's confusion, Xingqiu's father understood the significance of that small sign to Feiyun Chamber of Commerce.

He is now very happy with his decision last night. Don't look at that brand as it seems to be just a ranking with no other rewards. It seems meaningless.

But he knew that with such a brand, the name of Feiyun Chamber of Commerce would stand out in Liyue Port, standing out from the crowd.

Not only that, according to the current size of Feiyun Chamber of Commerce, its reputation in Liyue is already very high. What he values ​​most is the attractiveness of this ranking to foreign businessmen.

When people buy and sell things, there is always a communication game.

Buyers will worry about whether the seller will deceive them. No matter how good the seller says, buyers will always have doubts.

This is due to the general environment. There are too many sellers who are not human beings for the sake of profit.

And with this ranking, because it is an official ranking, foreign businessmen will naturally have a sense of trust in Feiyun Chamber of Commerce after knowing it, and this sense of trust can often reduce a lot of communication costs.

This can facilitate more transactions. It can be said that the reputation Feiyun Chamber of Commerce has built over the years is not as solid as this ranking.

He could already foresee that his chamber of commerce could take this opportunity to strengthen its position in Liyue.

Knowing that all this was done by Ouyang Cheng, of course he wanted to return the favor and strengthen his relationship with your family.

Unexpectedly, I originally wanted to sell a favor to your family, but it turned out that my family owed the other party a huge favor.

This investment is really worth it!

Thinking of this, he got up and left the study, preparing to go out.

Strike while the iron is hot, and he would like to take this opportunity to communicate with some old friends.

The news slowly spread in Liyue Port, and Mao Cai Gong, who had been paying attention to all the movements of the General Affairs Department, also learned the news immediately.

He never expected that the General Affairs Department would come up with such a trick.

He also understands the meaning of this ranking. Unlike Feiyun Chamber of Commerce, although Mao Caigong does not have a trace of regret on his face, it can be seen from his calm face that he no longer has the happy mood of the past few days.

.

hateful!

Snapped--

He shook his hand and smashed the tea cup in his hand. Mao Caigong was still angry.

"Someone is coming!"

Following his call, a man who looked like a domestic servant walked in carefully, looked at the broken teacup on the ground, and asked more respectfully and carefully.

"Master, what are your orders?"

"Have you found any results about the information you were asked to investigate?" Gu Lin

"I forgive you, sir. Because there are so many people, the calculation is slow. At present, we only have an approximate result."

"What do you all do for food? Hmm, that's about it. You tell me first."

Not hearing the punishment, the servant's uneasy heart calmed down a little, and he immediately answered.

"Master, after preliminary calculations, the ore collected by the people in Huishan Hall can last about two weeks, provided that the foreign businessmen in these two weeks still trade according to yesterday's volume, otherwise the accuracy of the calculation will be even worse.

It’s easy to grasp.”

"Two weeks? Still around? I can't be sure of anything. What do I feed you for?"

"I'm sorry, sir, but this is indeed only a rough estimate. To get a more accurate result, I need you to send more people to inquire about the information."

"Have I given you too little? Do you still want me to go and find out information for you? Get out of here, you useless thing!"

After waving his servant away, Mao Caigong felt a little more at ease.

After the ranking came out, he was moved.

He was angry because he failed to sell all the ore, so this opportunity to show his face was wasted.

Now even if you want to sell the ore in your hand to the General Affairs Department, it is a bit late.

He bought a lot of them at a premium, and then sold them at such a low price to earn such a reputation. Mao Caigong felt that he was at a loss.

But at the same time, he also understood that if such a sign was put up, there would be other businessmen willing to sell the few ores they had to the General Affairs Department.

In this case, the General Affairs Department will be able to sustain it for a longer period of time, and his plan to wait for ore prices to increase and make a huge profit may not work.

Nowadays, the two sides are not happy with each other, which makes Mao Caigong a little angry.

After much thought, he decided to make a big bet for the sake of greater profits!

Thinking of this, he was going to the Northland Bank to get a loan.

Maocai Gong has been hesitating before about whether to take out a loan. The reason for hesitation is simple. The other banks in Liyue Port have more or less spies from Qixing - this is an open secret.

But what he wanted to do was hard to put on the table, so those banks were excluded by him.

The only one left is Beiguo Bank. Unfortunately, Beiguo Bank's reputation in Liyue is... hard to describe.

It's a pity that the current situation no longer allows him to hesitate.

You must be decisive. If you hesitate any longer, those ores will rot in your hands and you will lose even more!

After walking out of the study, Maocai Gong told a servant: "Prepare the sedan, I want to go to the North Country Bank!"

at the same time,

On the other side of Yujing Terrace, Guifu.

"That's roughly it for now. Many businessmen have bypassed the General Affairs Department and come to Yuethai Pavilion to inquire. Do you think anything else needs to be changed?"

"No need. Didn't I already tell you last night that merchants who are not on that list will not put that brand on them even if they come to sell ore."

Faced with Gan Yu's question, Ouyang answered with a relaxed expression.

"You must stick to the sugar-coated bullets of those businessmen, Miss Gan Yu."

"There are no sugar-coated bullets. It will only increase the workload. How about I let them come to you?"

"That's not possible, I still need to practice."

"Now that we're done talking, I'm leaving. You should cultivate yourself well!"

Gan Yu glanced at Ouyang, turned around and left.

In the study, Ouyang put down the list in his hand and left the study, preparing to take a rest.

Gan Yu came here this time to talk to him about hanging up the sign today, but Ouyang didn't care.

It had long been expected that businessmen would go crazy because of this, so Ouyang had already pushed out everything.

That brand is just something with more show value than actual meaning.

At least that's what Ouyang thinks.

Long before, Ouyang had asked the people in Huishan Hall to purchase enough ore, and he could survive within two weeks.

There are many reasons for setting up this brand. On the one hand, it is to continue to purchase ores, but more importantly, it is to attract foreign businessmen to purchase products from other industries marked on the ranking.

Many people only see the names of big businessmen or chambers of commerce and often overlook some details.

Because it was not meant for the people of Liyue!

Changing the industrial structure is a huge project. Although it is difficult and involves the whole body, it is still possible to change it little by little.

Therefore, the names on that brand are all screened, referred to as shady.

But it doesn't matter. The sign says he is an outstanding businessman in Liyue. As for the "ranking" and so on, they are all hints when explaining to the outside world, not something explicitly stated.

Among the various confusing news, many were secretly released by Qixing.

Anyway, the handle can't be left out.

Finally, I want to try to catch fish. The early arrangements are almost complete, and now that I have put such pressure on the fish, I think they will be unable to help but take the bait.
