Chapter 73 The mastermind behind the Jeolla Chamber of Commerce
In the hall of the Nanyang Chamber of Commerce, Sanniang was sitting there with a middle-aged man in his thirties. He was not tall, had a Chinese character face and a mustache, and his skin was very fair. He looked like a gentle scholar, but unfortunately he was not.
He has a pair of long and narrow eyes, which seem to be deliberately squinting when looking at people. A few rays of light flash through his long eyes from time to time, and one can tell at a glance that he is a very shrewd person.
"President Jin's visit really brings glory to our Nanyang Chamber of Commerce, but I don't know if President Jin has something important to do and insists on not meeting our boss?" Sanniang asked with a smile after having someone serve tea. She sat down.
The middle-aged man in front of her was named Jin Wenxian. You could tell by his name that he was a Korean, and he was not an ordinary Korean.
There are many Koreans in Beigang District, but most of them are very weak. Among them are the two most powerful chambers of commerce, one is the Jeolla Chamber of Commerce that was just destroyed by them, and the other is the Chungcheong Chamber of Commerce, and Jin Wenxian is the president of the Chungcheong Chamber of Commerce.
.Like the Jeolla Chamber of Commerce, the Chungcheong Chamber of Commerce is also a chamber of commerce united by region. Most of the people in the chamber of commerce are from Chungcheong Province in the Joseon Dynasty, and its power is no worse than that of the Jeolla Chamber of Commerce.
Jin Wenxian was originally the son-in-law of the old president of the Chungcheong Chamber of Commerce. Fortunately, the old president's only son was useless and had no ability to manage the chamber of commerce. Therefore, when the old president passed away, the position of president of the chamber of commerce was passed on to his son-in-law.
.Speaking of the fact that the old president has five daughters, Jin Wenxian was able to defeat the other four brothers-in-law to become the president, so he is naturally outstanding.
"Sanniang, you're welcome. My father-in-law said at the beginning that the relationship between our Chamber of Commerce and your Chamber of Commerce has always been like the relationship between North Korea and the Ming Dynasty. They all relied on the support of the Nanyang Chamber of Commerce to gain a foothold in Beigang, and slowly
We have come this far, so Jin is also very grateful to the Nanyang Chamber of Commerce. Previously, something happened to President Zhou, and Jin was in pain. Now that he has finally waited for the arrival of his young master, Jin will naturally pay a visit!" said Jin Wenxian, who speaks fluent Chinese.
Li, sounds no different from the Han people, and when talking about Zhou Hai's death, his face is full of sorrow, and he looks like his father is really dead.
When Sanniang heard Jin Wenxian's hypocritical words, she couldn't help but sneer in her heart. At the beginning, the Chungcheong Chamber of Commerce, like the Jeolla Chamber of Commerce, was suppressed by the Japanese Chamber of Commerce, and it was only with the support of their Nanyang Chamber of Commerce that they got to where they are now. But something happened to Zhou Hai before, and the Chungcheong Chamber of Commerce
Although they did not snatch the Chamber of Commerce's property like the Cholla Chamber of Commerce, they also added insult to injury and forced the Chamber of Commerce to repay a previous payment without any mercy. But now they see that the Nanyang Chamber of Commerce has destroyed the Cholla Chamber of Commerce.
Jin Wenxian rushed to flatter him, but he didn't even mention what happened before. This kind of person's thick skin is really rare in the world.
Although Sanniang despises Jin Wenxian's character, he is here to visit Zhou Zhong after all, so she can't ignore him too much. Besides, there are no real friends and enemies in the business world. The chamber of commerce may still use it in the future.
to the other party, so she could only force herself to fight with Jin Wenxian and Xianxu.
"Sanniang, is this President Jin?" At this moment, Zhou Zhong finally came from the backyard and greeted Sanniang with a smile. At the same time, he kept looking at Jin Wenxian with his eyes. Behind him,
, Xie Lingyun came with him.
When Jin Wenxian saw Zhou Zhong come in, he stood up immediately. At the same time, he also saw Xie Lingyun behind Zhou Zhong. Although he had never met the eldest lady of the Xie family, he could guess her identity, thinking about the rumors from the outside world.
Sure enough, the relationship between the young master of the Nanyang Chamber of Commerce and the eldest lady of the Xie family is indeed very close, and even a marriage between the two families in the future is not impossible.
Thinking of this, Jin Wenxian stepped forward and walked a few steps to salute: "Jin Wenxian, the villain, pays homage to Mr. Zhou, Miss Xie!"
Zhou Zhong and Xie Lingyun were stunned when they saw that the president of a chamber of commerce in the other party actually called himself a villain. However, they were not ordinary people. Zhou Zhong soon helped the other party up and said with a smile: "President Jin
You’re welcome, I’ve long heard that Chairman Jin is modest and prudent and an old friend of our Chamber of Commerce, and today I met him and he truly lives up to his reputation!”
Although Zhou Zhong's words sounded like he was praising Jin Wenxian, they actually had a backbone. He had heard Sanniang say before that the Zhongqing Chamber of Commerce was adding insult to injury to press for debts, so he didn't have any good impressions of Jin Wenxian.
However, Jin Wenxian didn't seem to hear the irony in Zhou Zhong's words at all. He still had a kind smile on his face. He licked his face and came to Zhou Zhong and said: "Thank you Mr. Zhou for your compliment. I had a meeting with Mr. Zhou before.
We often keep in touch with each other, and often hear President Zhou talk about Mr. Zhou, praising you as a dragon or a phoenix among men. It is a pity that I have never had the opportunity to meet you. It really makes me regret that I can meet Mr. Zhou today.
I finally got what I wanted.”
Hearing Jin Wenxian's bottomless praise, Zhou Zhong felt goosebumps all over his body. Even Xie Lingyun next to him was speechless at Jin Wenxian's shameless praise. He thought that he had always heard his father say that Koreans are the most shameless.
The Japanese were the most ferocious, and now it seems that is indeed the case.
Zhou Zhong really couldn't stand Jin Wenxian's shameless praise. After sitting down and exchanging a few perfunctory words with the other party, he immediately got to the point and said: "President Jin, just now you said that you wanted to report something important to me. What is it?"
When Zhou Zhong asked about business, Jin Wenxian immediately sat up straight, looked at the hall and saw that there were no other people waiting, and then said in a low voice: "Master Zhou, in fact, the villain came here this time to take a huge risk to ask the question.
You and Miss Xie are reporting two extremely confidential matters."
When Zhou Zhong and Xie Lingyun heard this, they couldn't help but look at each other in surprise, and then asked: "I wonder what secrets President Jin wants to tell us?"
I saw Jin Wenxian looked around, and suddenly sighed and said: "Mr. Zhou, this villain has risked his life and fortune to come here to report the news. You and Miss Xie must promise not to let others know that these two things are a scam.
Someone reported it to you!"
"Don't worry, there are only the four of you and me in the hall, and Sanniang and Miss Xie are not outsiders. They will never leak it to the outside world!" Zhou Zhong said impatiently, although the other party has always emphasized that these are two extremely confidential matters.
, but he always felt that this was Jin Wenxian making a fool of himself.
Hearing Zhou Zhong's assurance, Sanniang and Xie Lingyun also looked curious. Jin Wenxian suddenly gritted his teeth and finally said: "Mr. Zhou, the first thing I want to report to you is what happened behind my back."
The person who supports the Jeolla Chamber of Commerce has a lot of power in North Korea, and it is this person who supports Park Won-kang's human trafficking, and almost all of those girls and boys were sent to his house!"
Hearing these words of Jin Wenxian, Zhou Zhong suddenly turned his head, stared at him with piercing eyes, and said through gritted teeth: "Who is this person?"
"Master Qi, this man's name is Li Yi. He is the half-brother of our King of Korea. He is now named the King of Jincheng. This man is ambitious and has always been disrespectful to the Ming Dynasty. He often speaks out against Taizu and Chengzu.
He even made Pu Yuanjiang secretly inquire about the affairs of the Ming Dynasty, and often criticized His Majesty's current decrees. He is really a man without a king and a father!" Jin Wenxian spoke with great righteousness, showing his disgust for the King of Jincheng.
It is also beyond words.
Zhou Zhong didn't care about the Jincheng Lord's comments about the Ming Emperor, but the other party turned out to be the mastermind behind the Cholla Chamber of Commerce, and he was also the direct instigator of human trafficking. This was what Zhou Zhong hated the most about him.
However, compared to Zhou Zhong's anger, Xie Lingyun looked at Jin Wenxian with a profound look. The other party originally only needed to tell them that the mastermind behind the Jeolla Chamber of Commerce was the King of Jincheng, but he said something inexplicable later.
It seems a bit strange that the other party slandered the Emperor of Ming Dynasty. If she had not made any mistakes, Jin Wenxian's next words should have been heard by her, and the other party probably already knew who the person standing behind their Xie family was!
Perhaps feeling the deep meaning in Xie Lingyun's eyes, Jin Wenxian glanced at her involuntarily. As soon as his eyes met Xie Lingyun's, he immediately turned his head to the side in a panic, with a somewhat embarrassed smile on his face.
"President Jin, are the news you said true?" Zhou Zhong asked with a cold face.
"It's absolutely true. If you don't believe me, you can send someone to ask other Korean chambers of commerce. Many people know about this. In addition, didn't you bring the Jeolla Chamber of Commerce together? There must be Park Yuanjiang and the King of Jincheng in the chamber of commerce.
The exchange of collusive letters, and most of the money earned by the Jeolla Chamber of Commerce over the years has been dedicated to the King of Jincheng!" Jin Wenxian promised again, patting his chest.
"I see. I'm also wondering. The Jeolla Chamber of Commerce is also one of the large chambers of commerce in Beigang, but we didn't seize much money this time. Even if we include the goods, the total is only a few thousand taels of silver. It turns out that
All the money they earned was used to honor others!" At this time, Sanniang also said, Jin Wenxian's words finally solved a mystery in her heart.
Hearing what Jin Wenxian said, Zhou Zhong finally believed what he said, and at the same time he also felt resentment towards Li Yi. However, he quickly looked at Jin Wenxian strangely and said: "President Jin, I don't understand something. You
What's the use of telling me the people behind the Jeolla Chamber of Commerce? Do you expect me to go to North Korea and kill them?"
"No, no, no, Mr. Zhou, you have misunderstood!" When Jin Wenxian said this, he couldn't help but secretly glanced at Xie Lingyun again, and found that the other party looked at him with a half-smile, which made him hurriedly said to Zhou Zhong, "Actually, I told you
Young Master, I want to remind you that although the Jeolla Chamber of Commerce has been destroyed, the Lord of Jincheng may send people to retaliate, so your Chamber of Commerce had better make some preparations!"
Hearing the other party's reason, Zhou Zhong still felt that it was a bit far-fetched. After all, the Jincheng Lord was in North Korea. What could he do even if he wanted to take revenge? However, he did not delve into this issue, but asked again: "Okay, thank you Jin
