Chapter 150: The Simpler Hu Xueyan
After the six people arrived at Sanqingzhuang, the first thing they saw was not the gate of the village, but the overcrowded motorcade. In other words, the village had no gate at all, and even the fence protecting the village had been removed.
Looking at the banner of the merchant gang's convoy in front of him, it looked like the goods and supplies were being transported by Hu Xueyan's branch of the Hui merchant gang.
The six people stopped at the back of the motorcade. Feng Hao ordered the leader of the shadow guard to go forward and ask them what was going on and why they had not entered Sanqingzhuang for so long. He came to the front of the motorcade and saw that there were still people in front of the Huizhou merchant motorcade.
There was a convoy of Shanxi merchants. It turned out that the convoys of two merchant gangs were blocked here. The escort heads of the two merchant gangs were staggering the passages to allow the convoys of the two merchant gangs to pass safely.
After the investigation, the leader of the shadow guard told Feng Hao: "Sir, the convoys of Hui merchants and Shanxi merchants are blocked there. The escort leaders of the two merchant gangs are staggering the roads to allow the two convoys to pass safely."
Feng Hao, who was riding a horse, straightened up and looked at the road ahead. It seemed that the convoy of Shanxi merchants was indeed blocked there, and there were also merchants and villagers coming and going. It was indeed difficult to clear the road. Feng Hao asked the five shadow guards to step forward.
If you go and help, it can be regarded as showing some kindness to the landlord.
So the five shadow guards quickly came to the center of the two merchant gangs' motorcades and discussed with the leaders of the bodyguards of the two merchant gangs, asking the Shanxi merchants' fleet to retreat. The villagers and merchants who were coming and going gave way first.
They stood aside and waited for a while, allowing the convoy of Huizhou merchants to enter first.
"Good idea, come on, come on, the brothers from Shanxi merchants will turn the car back and let the brothers from Hui merchants come in first!"
The most important thing for merchants in the Qing Dynasty was trust and sincerity. Two merchant gangs, Hui merchants and Shanxi merchants, were born during the Ming and Qing Dynasties, and their rules were also very strict. Merchants must be honest and uphold morality, not to mention that the only thing the Qing Dynasty can do now is
The only business gangs that can be grasped and reliable are Hui merchants and Shanxi merchants, so these two business gangs have set rules respectively, not to interfere with each other, to be mutually beneficial, and to interact with each other.
It was precisely because of this that the bodyguards of the two business gangs did not start a dispute.
"Come on, come on, please stand back and let the brothers from Huizhou merchants go in first."
Then, the businessmen who wanted to leave the village involuntarily retreated to both sides to make room for the convoys of Shanxi merchants and Huizhou merchants to turn around. Everything was very orderly. Feng Hao was very impressed by their quality and ability.
I feel very satisfied with my attitude. This is the so-called way of doing business and morality in the world, right?
Soon, the road to Sanqingzhuang was cleared. The bodyguards of Shanxi merchants thanked the five shadow guards, and then they left towards the north. Feng Hao passed by them and felt the warmth of some relatives.
I feel that this is the confidence of Shanxi merchants and Huizhou merchants. Their quality is very good, which is something they cannot reach yet.
"Come, come, come, brothers from Huizhou merchants can enter the village. Hurry up and escort the goods. Our mission will be successfully completed."
The five shadow guards came to Feng Hao and watched the two merchant gangs leaving. They couldn't help but praise the quality and rules of the two merchant gangs.
"Sir, compared to us, the merchant gangs of the Qing Dynasty are really far behind."
"Yes, this is why the Qing Dynasty could not defeat Zhu Yuanzhang in terms of force, but it was able to make steady progress economically and compete with the Ming Dynasty." Feng Hao took out a green date from his arms and stuffed it into his mouth.
He nodded.
He opened his phone and looked at the private messages. In addition to Wang Meng talking to him, the guys in the chat group started nagging again. They were pretending and bickering every day, basically not bothering for several hours.
fits their style.
But he didn't have time to talk nonsense with those old men now. After putting his mobile phone back in his bag, they came to an inn. The scene around it was indeed rare to see in the countryside below the city, and in such a small village, the functional facilities were actually
So complete.
"Although the sparrow is small but has all the internal organs, it's probably this village." Feng Hao said in a normal voice while holding a cup of herbal tea.
Just as he was talking, the store owner came over and introduced: "This young master is right. Our Sanqing Village has transformed from a poor village to a large village since the king's reform, and it has become a large village like other villages."
Compared with villages, our lives are comparable to those of people in the city."
The leader of the shadow guard also asked from time to time: "Store owner, the convoys of the two major business gangs were stuck in traffic for so long, no one was angry or anything?"
The store owner replied with an expression that showed the other party had never seen the world at all: "Oh, what this big brother said, you still don't know the rules of Shanxi merchants and Huizhou merchants, right? Although these two major merchant gangs have different roots,
They have the same origin, but their hearts are in the same direction. Their rules and qualities are synonymous with them. As long as you walk in the business world, you can see them everywhere."
Feng Hao only listened to the store owner's chatty introduction, but he didn't want to listen anymore. It seemed that the situation in Sanqingzhuang was also very good. Compared with the city, the environment and the quality of the people here are also in a very good condition.
, it seems that he is really going to leave empty-handed this time.
"Innkeeper, please bring thirteen bowls of herbal tea to my merchant gang." A man came into the inn. Feng Hao took a closer look and found that this man was Hu Xueyan, the chief helmsman of Huizhou merchants.
The store owner responded quickly, turned around and went to the counter to get a box of fine tea leaves to make tea for Hu Xueyan.
"Boss Hu, I haven't seen you for several days recently."
"Businessmen have been very helpful these days. Where did the time come from? Today, the Shanxi merchants and Huizhou merchants are not doing inventory and summary. I came here from the north."
Suddenly, Feng Hao picked up what Hu Xueyan was saying and said, "Boss Hu, how is the business of our merchant gang these days?"
Hu Xueyan was also very simple. When he saw that the young master sitting next to him was also very concerned about the business of Huizhou merchants, he smiled and replied: "The business is not bad, and the master also understands the business of Huizhou merchants?"
After being involved in economics and trade for such a long time, Feng Hao still didn’t know the true strength of Huizhou merchants and Shanxi merchants. He said: “I can’t say I understand. Xiaoke heard that Boss Hu is the head of Huizhou merchants and the chief rudder of the Qing Dynasty business community.
I once had the honor to meet Boss Hu at the Zhao Palace."
Hearing the words Zhao Wang Palace, Hu Xueyan still asked simply: "Oh? Is it the imperial meeting where King Zhao met with businessmen from various countries a month ago?"
Feng Hao nodded repeatedly and replied: "Exactly, Boss Hu is dressed simply, and as the boss of Huizhou merchants, he has to go back and forth in person. It's really hard work."
"As a Huizhou merchant, everyone has to work more down below, not to mention me, the general leader of the Huizhou merchants?"
The shop owner placed the thirteen bowls of tea on the table, ordered four waiters to put the tea on long wooden trays, and covered the tea bowls with cloth to prevent the heat from leaking out.
"Boss Hu, the tea is ready. I'll send it to you now."
Hu Xueyan nodded. He was just about to leave, but he turned around and said to Feng Hao and the other six people: "What's your surname, boss? Hu would like to invite you to come to our business office for a chat."
"If your surname is Ma, just call me Ma Gao."
