Chapter 492 I Want Dignity! Merchants Can only Twist It Into One Strand of Rope!
Latest website:
Looking at the wealthy businessmen talking about it, Zhu Gaoxu was a little disappointed for a moment.
Yes, disappointed.
It seems that these merchants have not yet positioned themselves correctly!
The people present were all rich men with huge wealth. Now they were asked to pay a little money to take pictures of the facade of the business circle. It was as if they were going to die, so they started to make a fuss.
For such a small price, to them, it’s nothing, let alone a drop in the bucket!
It seems that they are still used to being squeezed by dignitaries, and these businessmen have developed a servile nature in their hearts.
You try to reason with him, but not only does he not listen, he even thinks you are harming him!
You use force to squeeze him and take away most of his interests, but he thinks this is the most normal thing, and he is happy with it!
Cheap or not? !
Seeing that His Highness the King of Han looked unhappy, Zhan Yuquan suddenly felt nervous.
He knew the temper of Prince Han very well, but these merchants didn't seem to realize the seriousness of the problem.
Standing in front of you is the most powerful prince in the Ming Dynasty, someone who dares to quarrel with His Highness the Crown Prince or even His Majesty the Emperor!
Now I just ask you to cooperate and respond to the call of Prince Han to jointly build the first business circle of the Ming Dynasty. How dare you not be willing to do so?
Short-sighted idiot!
However, before he could speak, Prince Han had already gone into a rage.
Zhu Gaoxu gave Guo Deng a look, and the latter immediately understood and pulled out his sword.
Upon seeing this, the Tiance Guard officers and soldiers on guard duty all around pulled out their sabers and stood ready!
The clear sound of drawing a sword, coupled with the shining cold light of the sword, instantly became the most powerful response.
The wealthy businessmen who were noisy before now froze in place like a rooster with their necks strangled, and swallowed the unfinished words back into their stomachs.
For a moment, Huachun Garden was silent, and the atmosphere was extremely solemn.
Zhu Gaoxu stood up and looked at these merchants coldly, his eyes full of disappointment.
"To be honest, I am very disappointed in you."
"My king has enacted new commercial taxes, established a tax bureau, and planned commercial districts precisely so that merchants like you can do business with peace of mind and no longer have to be bullied and exploited by others."
"I have made the truth clear to you before. I have also patiently explained the role of the business circle and the tax bureau to you. Today, I have given you enough face, but you don't seem to give me any face at all?"
Upon hearing this, the faces of all the merchants changed drastically, and cold sweat broke out on their foreheads.
It wasn't until this moment that they suddenly remembered something.
The Prince of Han in front of me is not a benevolent man, but the notorious and vicious His Highness the Prince of Han!
He was just trying to reason with me so nicely, so why did he lose his mind? He was a good talker in the past.
Well now, Prince Han is getting mad and is going to end his life!
"Ask yourselves, how much money did you need to pay to those dignitaries when doing business in the past to ensure that business continued as usual?"
"I'm willing to hand over big money. Now I ask you to bid for a small sum to respond to the court's call and create a stable business environment for you. But you are not happy!"
"What's the matter? You're used to being bullied and exploited by dignitaries, and you've developed servility in your bones, right? You're not used to the fact that this king is so kind to you?"
"Are you cheap? Huh?"
The King of Han spoke softly, silently and violently.
When all the merchants heard his sarcastic words, their faces turned red, whether from shame or anger.
However, what he said was the truth, and he accurately understood the psychology of the businessmen.
To put it bluntly, it’s just cheap!
Bully the weak and fear the hard, bully the good and fear the evil!
But they seem to have forgotten that King Han is not a soft persimmon and can be manipulated as he pleases!
Zhu Gaoxu looked at the pale merchants, and then sighed again.
"Because of the different treatment by the imperial court, you merchants have a low status and have a hard time being discriminated against. It can be said that you have no dignity, right?"
"I believe that many of you are eager to change this situation, trying to use money to gain connections, so that the children of your clan will scream at the scientific examination and become officials, and change the fate of the family, so that your children and grandchildren will not be harmed. He’s a lowly businessman, right?”
Hearing Prince Han's repeated questions, many wealthy businessmen had red eyes, especially Zhan Yuquan.
The words of Prince Han simply spoke to their hearts.
All of them are wealthy businessmen with huge wealth, but what's the use of that?
Any yamen officer can bully and exploit him, but in order to continue doing business, he has to flatter him. What kind of logic is this?
A merchant has no status, no dignity, and lives a humble life!
Not to mention officials and gentry, ordinary people, even those brothel prostitutes, looked down upon merchants like me!
"There are few horses and horses in front of the door. The boss married a merchant's wife. The merchant values profits over separation. The month before last, I went to Fuliang to buy tea..."
Zhu Gaoxu read out the popular poem and continued to stab their hearts with salt and knives.
"Even the fucking brothel prostitutes look down on you, why are you still so complacent?"
"Yes, you can make money, you know how to do business, your family is rich, and you have good food and clothing, but do you have status? Do you live with dignity?"
"I only dare to wear brocade clothes and satin at home. If I go out on the street and I am touched by a scholar, I will cover my mouth and nose and spit at you. Normally, anyone can cause trouble for you. I will file a lawsuit without giving you a bribe." The officials and yamen will help others..."
A group of businessmen: "!!!"
Heartbreaking!
It’s so heartbreaking!
I wish I could tear your piece of shit apart!
This is no longer just rubbing salt into the wound, this is opening up your wound and slicing it hard several times!
Zhan Yuquan burst into tears when he heard this. UU Reading www.uukａnshu.net sighed and said, "Your Majesty, stop talking. It's so heartbreaking!"
"Your Highness, King of Han, stop talking. I'm begging you!"
"I can't stand it anymore, Prince Han, please stop talking!"
In these years of running a business, I have been traveling here and there, wandering around, and I know myself well.
With just a few words, the King of Han tore off all their disguises and exposed the cruelest reality in front of them.
"Okay, I won't say anything if there are too many."
"I just want to tell you that if merchants want to be respected by others and attract the attention of the court, they must achieve results and make the emperor aware of your importance!"
"As long as the emperor clearly realizes this, the imperial court will naturally introduce protective policies for you, and your life in the future will not be as difficult as it is now. The Peking business circle is an excellent opportunity. After all, this is the new business of the Ming Dynasty. A place where taxes can be tested!”
"Only if you become a team and work together to successfully build the Ming Dynasty's first business circle, can you make the emperor realize the importance of business and hope to completely change the situation of merchants all over the world. Do you understand? "
All the merchants looked at each other, and finally nodded.
Indeed, this is an opportunity, an opportunity to completely change your destiny.
Money really doesn't matter to them. It's just an opportunity to change the fate of the family, but they never have it.
Zhan Yuquan took a deep breath and immediately took the lead in expressing his stance.
"Zhan will spend all his family wealth, follow in the footsteps of His Highness the King of Han, and do his best to build a business circle!"
"Money means nothing to Zhan anymore. Zhan doesn't want his descendants to be despised and bullied by others!"
His last assistance successfully defeated the inner defenses of all the merchants.
The tasting party begins here!
