Travel to the early Tang Dynasty and become a salted fish

But soon, Cui Yingying realized that the other party had reached an exchange of interests with Li Shimin, using stabilization of prices to obtain an increase in taxes?

You, Chu Mo, are just mediocre.

Thinking of this, Cui Yingying had a mocking look on her lips.

"Chu Mo, since you said that the imperial court will not increase taxes? Then let me ask you, will it never increase in the future, or will it not be increased temporarily?"

"Furthermore, from what you just said, things shouldn't be that simple. Did you get this by not raising taxes in exchange for not raising prices?"

Chu Mo glanced at Cui Yingying. Is this woman going to fight with him today?

However, before Chu Mo could speak, Li Zhenying on the side snorted coldly:

"Miss Cui, isn't it a little childish for you to ask such a question?"

"How the imperial court collects taxes, you should ask the imperial officials. If you ask Chu Mo, he is not the one who formulates taxes. How can he answer your question?"

"What's more, in the past few years, there have been constant wars and natural disasters, and the court's taxation is also unpredictable. Even the man in the court can't guarantee that the taxation will be stable. By asking such a question, do you want us to say you are shallow, or do you want us to accuse you of the Cui family? Where is no one?"

"you..."

Cui Yingying didn't expect that Li Zhenying would jump out and accuse herself. Not only did she hurt herself, but she also brought the entire Cui family with her. She immediately turned red with anger.

Cui Yan, who was on the side, saw that his daughter was at a disadvantage and hurriedly stood up and said: "Sir Young Master Li, Yingying just wants to ask President Chu some questions that everyone is concerned about. Why are you saying such nasty things?"

"Master Cui, it's not that I want to target Miss Cui, but her questions are actually a bit funny."

"Everyone knows that today is the day when the Tang Dynasty Chamber of Commerce was established. President Chu not only twisted us into a rope, but also asked His Majesty to take back his orders and avoid increasing taxes."

"Now, not only do you, the Cui family, not appreciate President Chu's kindness, but you are also jumping out to point fingers and question President Chu. Are you sincerely causing trouble?"

Li Zhenying sneered and choked without fear of Cui Yan's identity.

"You kid, how can you talk so freely? We are all very supportive of the establishment of the Tang Dynasty Chamber of Commerce. Otherwise, I would not come in person today."

"Moreover, my family Yingying is favored by everyone and has been elected as an elder."

"The reason why Yingying asked like this is because she is worried that Chu Mo is young and energetic and does not know the dangers of the world. She is afraid that he will be deceived by others and give away the interests of our chamber of commerce to marry others."

"The most important thing is that Chu Mo said before that the imperial court suddenly ordered not to raise prices. You know, before we stepped into the food world today, we had never received any news about this. Could it be that Chu Mo, you just said Was it just settled in the room?”

As soon as the words fell, the hall began to boil again.

Everyone looked at Chu Mo and Li Zhenying with strange eyes.

Businessmen are now reacting.

Yes, Patriarch Cui is right. Could it be that this Chu Mo really made some unknown deal with that person.

Thinking of this, many businessmen began to whisper.

Seeing that Cui Yan stirred up the emotions of the merchants with just a few words, Chu Mo snorted and said to Cui Yan:

"Master Cui, how I negotiated with that person is our business. I don't need to tell you, and you have no right to know."

"In addition, when I, Chu Mo, establish the Datang Chamber of Commerce, I will put the interests of the chamber of commerce first. If anyone doesn't believe it, it's still too late to withdraw directly now."

"Finally, let me ask you a question here. Regardless of whether I have reached an exchange of interests with others today, do you think that according to the current situation, if you still want to raise prices and take advantage of the opportunity to make money, today will be able to forgive you? ?”

"What's more, how many in-demand supplies do you have in hand now? You don't know how to count? No matter how much supplies you have, can you surpass me, Chu Mo?"

"Whether or not to raise prices is just a matter of my word, Chu Mo. What does it have to do with you? In terms of losses, not raising prices will be the biggest loss to me, right?"

After hearing what Chu Mo said, everyone looked at each other.

At this time, someone in the crowd suddenly murmured: "Yes, in Chang'an City, who doesn't know that Chairman Chu has the most winter supplies in his hands? If Chairman Chu doesn't agree, let alone increase the price, we will It’s not impossible to lose everything.”

"Yes, according to President Chu's methods, if he really wants to harm us, it's just a matter of words. Why should they spend manpower and material resources to establish this Laoshizi Chamber of Commerce?"

"President Chu established the Chamber of Commerce because he naturally didn't want to see us businessmen being looked down upon and bullied."

"Those aristocratic families used to bully us based on their birth. Now that the Chamber of Commerce has been established, they must not see our kindness and come here to cause trouble."

Hearing that the public opinion around them was being slowly led astray by those who were interested, pointing all the fingers at their five surnames and Qi Wang, several family heads suddenly became anxious.

"Everyone, what I said just now is solely the words of the Cui family and has nothing to do with my Li family."

Li Gang had long disliked Cui Yan and his wife, and directly asked to sever ties with the Cui family.

When the other families saw Li Gang's behavior, they also followed suit and distanced themselves from the relationship with the Cui family.

But Cui Zheng was even more ruthless and said directly: "These two women are from the Qinghe Cui family and are not one and the same with our Boling Cui family. What they said has nothing to do with our Boling Cui family."

Seeing that other companies were trying to cut ties with him, Cui Yan became anxious.

How could things become like this? Didn't it mean that the five surnames and the seven looks are one? Why do these old guys want to sever ties with us?

Seeing that the masters of the family were in chaos and wanted to push the Cui family of Qinghe out to block the knife, Chu Mo felt happy and said with an angry look on his face:

"Everyone has seen that Chu is working hard to fight for everyone's interests today, but some ungrateful people will ignore the entire chamber of commerce for their own selfish desires. For such people, Chu Mo and We, the Tang Dynasty Chamber of Commerce, will definitely disdain to associate with them."

"Since Mr. Cui and Miss Cui look down on our Chamber of Commerce, I think our Chamber of Commerce is small and cannot accommodate you, the Qinghe Cui Family. Therefore, you should withdraw voluntarily to avoid damaging the harmony."

"Chu Mo, no, President Chu, that's not what we meant. We are not looking down on the Chamber of Commerce. We ask President Chu to think again."

Cui Yan was anxious and did not dare to call Chu Mo by his name.

If I were kicked out of the Chamber of Commerce today, not only would I not be able to gain a foothold in the Chang'an business world, nor would I say how other major families would view me, but if I returned to the clan, those clan elders and other people who were eyeing the position of their family leader would Would you miss such a good opportunity?
