Travel to the early Tang Dynasty and become a salted fish

At this time, food is the most important thing, and everyone has already registered.

Although there are still some people who want to join the Chamber of Commerce after getting the news, Chu Mo no longer wants to wait any longer.

He and Li Zhenying stood in the corridor on the second floor, looking at the bustling people below and shouting: "Everyone, today's registration has almost been completed. Now in order to fight for everyone's benefits as soon as possible, I will announce a few things again."

Hearing Chu Mo's words, the hall instantly became quiet, and everyone looked up at Chu Mo.

Seeing that everyone was quiet, Chu Mo's mouth curved and he continued:

"Today is the day when the Datang Chamber of Commerce was established. As the founder and president of the Chamber of Commerce, first of all, I appoint Li Zhenying as the vice president of the Datang Chamber of Commerce."

As soon as these words came out, there was a burst of noise below.

Several family heads with the fifth surname and Qiwang looked at Chu Mo in disbelief.

According to their speculation, Chu Mo established this chamber of commerce and wanted to elect the president. Why did he have to vote, but he just took the position of president without saying a word?Isn't this bullying?

Thinking of this, Cui Yan immediately raised his head and shouted loudly to Chu Mo: "Chu Mo, why are you the president? We haven't agreed yet."

As soon as the words fell, they were immediately recognized by many people, and everyone began to denounce Chu Mo.

Chu Mo looked coldly at the noisy crowd below and allowed them to clamor.

Seeing that Chu Mo didn't speak, the voices of the people who criticized Chu Mo began to gradually decrease, and finally Datang fell into silence again.

Seeing that no one spoke, Chu Mo sneered, glanced at the crowd and said, "I founded this Datang Chamber of Commerce, and I am naturally the president."

"If I am not the president, then why should I do thankless things and offend His Majesty the Emperor for you?"

"If any of you are dissatisfied, you can go to the palace now to find the emperor and ask him to take back his orders and change the business tax back."

This time, no one dared to speak.

What an international joke, if they had a way to change Li Shimin's decision, how could they still be willing to pay for it?

It was because they had no other choice that they decided to let Chu Mo come forward.

Everyone knows that if you want a horse to run fast, give it more grass to eat.

If they want Chu Mo to bear the pressure from the court and Li Shimin, they must recognize the other party's identity as the president.

Seeing that no one spoke, Chu Mo laughed mockingly and continued: "When you join the Datang Chamber of Commerce, you must abide by the rules of the Datang Chamber of Commerce. If you don't follow the rules, you will suffer revenge from all members of the Datang Chamber of Commerce."

"As the permanent president of the Datang Chamber of Commerce, I naturally enjoy a veto power. If anyone has an opinion, you may wish to raise it and listen."

After saying that, Chu Mo looked at the family heads of the five surnames and Qiwang.

Seeing Chu Mo staring at them, the family heads suddenly felt their pressure doubled.

Those who originally wanted to object did not dare to speak up at this time.

When the others saw that several family heads did not speak, they naturally gave up their plans to be the first to show off.

"Since no one objects, let me talk about the significance of the establishment of our Datang Chamber of Commerce. If anyone is dissatisfied or has different opinions, I welcome you to withdraw at any time within today, but after today, if you want to withdraw , then I’m sorry, you will suffer endless revenge from the entire Chamber of Commerce.”

"My original intention in establishing the Datang Chamber of Commerce is to make money together for everyone. If there are risks, we will nip them in the cradle."

After hearing what Chu Mo said, most of the businessmen downstairs nodded and agreed with him.

"Since it's about money, the first thing we have to do is define the value of an item."

"So, I announce that in the future, all goods sold by our members of the Datang Chamber of Commerce will be priced by our members of the Datang Chamber of Commerce, and then sold at the set price."

As soon as he finished speaking, there was an outcry of opposition.

"Chu Mo, you don't know the price of each item, how do you price the items?"

"Goods may be good or bad, so you can't set the price arbitrarily, right?"

. . . .

After the noise continued for a while, when everyone saw that Chu Mo was staring at them coldly, everyone immediately closed their mouths and looked directly at Chu Mo.

Chu Mo snorted and said, "I haven't even finished speaking. Some people with ulterior motives are eager to jump out and cause havoc. Why are they dissatisfied with me as the president?"

As he spoke, his eyes scanned the crowd.

In the crowd, those who had cursed before started to dodge after their eyes met Chu Mo's.

Chu Mo snorted disdainfully and said, "The reason why I set prices for products is to make you more money and regulate the entire market."

"Besides, I never said that I would set the prices for these goods. I plan to select 10 highly respected members of the Chamber of Commerce to form a Presbyterian Council."

"These elders can not only send people to be responsible for the pricing of these goods, but they can also take care of the Datang Chamber of Commerce on my behalf when it is inconvenient for me."

"Of course, these elders are different from me, the permanent speaker. These elders have to be rotated through re-voting every year. Once they fail to pass the review, or the number of votes is overtaken by others, then they will have to be replaced."

As soon as Chu Mo finished speaking, the crowd below began to become chaotic again.

Still waiting for their quarrel to end, Chu Mo continued: "It's better to choose a day than to hit it. Anyone who is here now and has become a member of the Chamber of Commerce can sign up to be elected as an elder."

"In addition, this vote is a secret ballot. Everyone can participate and vote with confidence. I guarantee on the honor of the president that no matter what the result is, no one will dare to cause trouble."

As he said this, he glanced at the family heads of the five surnames and Qiwang. It was as if he was specifically warning you.

This time there were no more heckles and no one stood up to express opposition.

Afterwards, after Chu Mo finished explaining some details, he asked the waiter downstairs who had been waiting for a long time to hand each of them a ballot.

Looking at the ballot papers made of special materials in their hands, everyone couldn't help but feel reassured.

Seeing that the people downstairs were starting to move around, thinking about canvassing votes, Chu Mo coughed and drew everyone's attention to him again.

"Everyone, in order to allow everyone to choose an elder that they are satisfied with, after careful consideration, I have decided to let those who are interested in running for elders come up to give speeches. You can vote based on the other person's attitude."

After saying that, he directly pulled Li Zhenying and stood aside: "Now, those who are interested in running for the election of elders, you can come up and perform."
