The end of the year is the most leisurely day, but for businessmen, they are busy all the time.
Especially when the accounts have to be settled at the end of the year, both the shopkeeper and the clerk are exhausted.
At this busy moment, Liu Ke issued gathering notices to all counties.
The bosses who were originally depressed all became energetic. As stupid as they are, they all know that something big is going to happen.
Everyone couldn¡¯t help but remember that the last time Dongyang Hou convened a gathering was before he started his career.
?That is, selling wine-making recipes.
At that time, Dongyang Hou was still very young and very friendly to everyone.
However, after such a long time passed, no one knew what Dongyang Hou thought of merchants.
After all, the position of the butt is different.
"I said, what are you worried about? Dongyang Hou has nothing to say to us businessmen! The Liu family is originally a business family."
"Shit, Marquis Dongyang is a clan member of the Han Dynasty!"
"What do you say about the Mi family? The Mi family are businessmen!"
"Can the in-laws of Marquis Dongyang be the same as us? Do you have a beautiful sister or a daughter?"
"I¡¡"
The businessmen came in response to the call, and there was a lot of discussion at the same time.
After all, everyone has the same worries, after all, it is about their own pockets.
Within a few days, Dongyang gathered big businessmen from all over the country, among whom the Qiao family of Lujiang County, the Mi family of Guangling County, the Lu family of Wu County, the Gu family of Wu County, the Zhu family of Wu County, and the Zhang family of Wu County were the representatives.
??Among them, they are also representatives of the gentry, and their status as businessmen is more like a side job.
Liu Ke has investigated their backgrounds clearly, especially the four Wujun families. Their representatives are also very powerful in the Three Kingdoms.
For example, for the Lu family, the representatives include Lu Xun, the representative of the Gu family, Gu Yong, the representative of the Zhang family, Zhang Zhao, and the representative of the Zhu family, Zhu Huan.
Of course, there are also some pure business representatives, but they don¡¯t do much business. As for the reason, of course there is no backstage.
What Liu Ke has to do is to manage them uniformly.
"Meet the Marquis of Dongyang!" Everyone saluted Liu Ke.
Liu Ke waved his hand and motioned for everyone to sit down.
But everyone was on pins and needles, and even the Mi family, who were closest to them, had no news.
At this meeting, Liu Ke did not disclose the information in advance.
The representative of the Mi family knows everything with his butt. No matter what happens, he just nods his head and agrees.
"But the four families in Wu County are a little worried. The Zhang family is a little better, because someone is an official. The other three families are disobedient to discipline.
Liu Ke often asked Lu Su to recruit talented people in Yangzhou, but Wu Jun just covered the family's children and couldn't kill them.
After all, Liu Ke¡¯s relationship with the family is not good, and there is even some hostility.
If the people want to develop, it will definitely affect the interests of the aristocratic families.
Liu Ke¡¯s power was huge and they were unable to resist. Therefore, the aristocratic family could only silently resist by refusing to serve as officials.
Liu Ke has no time to care about them. Now, he is going to make a try.
That is to free the family from the land and develop business.
As long as you follow Liu Ke¡¯s plan, it¡¯s hello, hello, hello to everyone.
¡°I have a general idea in calling everyone together this time, which is to establish the Yangzhou Chamber of Commerce to manage the dazzling array of merchants.¡± Liu Kedao.
Yangzhou Chamber of Commerce?
Everyone was shocked. Are they going to put shackles on their heads?
This is the first time a businessman is keen.
¡°In order to prevent malicious competition, relevant regulations must be made.¡± Liu Kedao.
???????????????????
But no one dared to express opposition, because this matter was announced by Liu Ke himself.
The businessmen whispered among themselves and seemed unwilling to obey.
Liu Ke also knew this, so he still wanted to give them a little sweetness.
"Of course, this is also a distribution of benefits."
It¡¯s a matter of life and death for one¡¯s family, and everyone pricks up their ears to listen.
"The government will not interfere in the management of the Chamber of Commerce. All matters will be decided by a vote of the seven representatives of the Chamber of Commerce." Liu Kedao.
Hearing this, everyone breathed a sigh of relief. As long as they don't mess around, everyone can talk easily.
"We will leave aside the intrastate trade for now. I would like to make a point here that foreign trade can only be done through?Member of Chamber of Commerce. "Liu Kedao.
This move is called monopoly.
Businessmen pursue profits. If they want to grow bigger, they must develop elsewhere.
What¡¯s more, the current trade environment is very good. How good is it?
For example, they once wanted to trade in Jizhou, but the layers of taxation greatly increased the cost of goods, and the price had to be increased several times before the sales price could be recovered.
Now, Jizhou¡¯s business tax has been cancelled!
Because this is an agreement between the two state pastors, no one will violate it.
In other words, as long as Yangzhou merchants paid taxes in Yangzhou, they no longer had to pay taxes to Jizhou.
In this environment, businessmen made a lot of money. The aristocratic family behind them also happily followed Liu Ke to eat meat, but it was too ugly to look at.
How to put it this way, for example, a piece of silk cloth originally sold for 10 gold. After the tax reduction, everyone can make a profit by selling it for 8 gold. So you sell the cloth and I also sell the cloth, and the price drops directly to 5 gold.
Is this still dumping?
This is a trap for one of our own people!
Therefore, it is imperative to establish a chamber of commerce to allow businessmen to supervise themselves. When the peaches are ripe, the government will come again to pick the peaches.
In a word, foreign trade can only be done by members of the Chamber of Commerce, so major merchants can only come to squeeze the single-plank bridge.
There is still money to be made by joining the Chamber of Commerce, but those who refuse will lose their money.
"Marquis Dongyang, our Qiao family is participating!" The Qiao family was the first to express their stance.
The Qiao family is a wealthy family in Lujiang County, and Liu Ke doesn¡¯t pay much attention to it. However, Liu Ke still nodded to express his opinion.
? Next, everyone expressed their opinions and elected seven chamber of commerce representatives, and the Qiao family was also selected.
The Liu family, represented by Liu Ke, chose to withdraw because the Mi family and Zhang family had already occupied their positions.
If the Liu family re-enters, it will directly occupy half of the country, which will be detrimental to the future development of the Chamber of Commerce.
The first batch of people to join the Chamber of Commerce will definitely gain the greatest benefits.
When the market is saturated, if you want to squeeze in, you will have no chance.
Next is the time for the Chamber of Commerce. They are busy formulating various rules and starting to allocate their own interests.
Liu Ke was not impatient and let them quarrel. When they were assigned, the government would make a final decision.
In other words, he wants to be a referee.
For three days in a row, the Chamber of Commerce kept arguing.
Liu Ke has ignored them for a long time. Now the Chamber of Commerce only has forty-seven members, which is still too few.
¡°And the proportion of civilian businessmen was too small, and Liu Ke was very dissatisfied with this.
However, there are also good aspects. This move is considered by everyone to be benefiting the family.
It actually made Liu Ke¡¯s reputation rise a lot.
In order to increase the number of civilian businessmen, Liu Ke decided to open a business school.
Like the Women¡¯s Academy, Liu Ke was criticized.
Dongyang Hou likes all kinds of tossing!
Then, Liu Ke directly let out the news that after graduating from the business school, he would probably participate in the management of the chamber of commerce in an official capacity.
????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????
Because of this matter, Cai Yong came over to make trouble once. After all, businessmen are heretical, how can they compare with Confucianism?
This is the trouble Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty left for Liu Ke!
"It's too troublesome to depose hundreds of schools of thought and only respect Confucianism.
"Business school students will not be officials." Liu Kedao.
Cai Yong got the promise and left with satisfaction.
Liu Ke has already offended the aristocratic family, and it is impossible to offend the Confucian family again, otherwise he will also have a big headache.
But it can slowly corrode Confucianism and develop some useful doctrines.
Liu Ke established the business school to create a new type of businessmen and instill in them trade ideas, instead of always thinking about oppression and fraud to make money.
Under Liu Ke's request, Lu Su gradually improved the commercial law, especially in terms of tax rates, which will become an important fiscal revenue for Yangzhou.
After the trial in Yangzhou, it will be extended to Jiaozhou.
Among them, the penalties for tax evasion are also very heavy. If the amount is less than 1,000 gold, half of the property will be deprived, and if the amount exceeds 1,000 gold, the person involved will be jailed.
Under the Commercial Law, the Chamber of Commerce has also completed the formulation of its own rules. Among them, Liu Ke's requirements of no malicious competition and active tax payment were also added.
After the cakes were distributed, everyone was very confident that they could make more money in the new year. (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com - Didn't finish reading?
