The influx of merchants made Qingzhou City unprecedentedly noisy, and the streets and alleys were filled with merchants coming from other places.

After waiting in Qingzhou City for three days, a notice that made the merchants ecstatic was posted in Qingzhou. All merchants in Qingzhou can go to the patent department to collect the soap production method. The specific matters are explained in detail by the patent department.

As soon as the news came out, the merchants immediately asked what the patent department was, and then asked where it was located, and then rushed to the patent department opposite the Governor's Office.

The merchants were ecstatic and also worried. Just as Xiao Ming thought, the Wang family found Xiao Ming as soon as possible after the announcement came out.

"You Wang family can also build workshops to produce soap." Xiao Ming's words immediately left Wang Shijie speechless, "You Wang family produces as much soap as you want to produce."

Wang Shijie pondered for a while and then said, "It's just your highness. In this way, the production of soap has increased sharply, and merchants selling soap are spread all over the world. How to control the price of this soap, and how to solve the mutual struggle between merchants from all over the country?"

"This king has long been scheming." Xiao Ming smiled calmly.

What Wang Shijie said was a prominent problem in this era, which was the mutual struggle between merchants. It can be said that many of the merchants who came to Qingzhou this time were big merchants, and their backs were somewhat related to other vassal kings and powerful people.

Now that everyone has soap in their hands, they naturally have to monopolize the business on their own territory, and merchants from other places are not allowed to come in.

This phenomenon is not only in this era, but also in modern times, local merchants bully foreign merchants.

"Please make it clear to you," said Wang Shijie.

People are greedy, especially merchants. The Wang family knows that opening soap production has advantages and disadvantages for the Wang family. They can benefit from the production of soap, but they are unwilling to give up first-line sales.

Xiao Ming said lightly: "Chamber of Commerce."

The competition among merchants will inevitably bring about various problems. The chamber of commerce is inevitable, and Xiao Ming's real purpose is to use the chamber of commerce to build Qingzhou into the commercial center of the Great Yu Kingdom.

Wang Shijie naturally didn't understand what the Chamber of Commerce was, so Xiao Ming became a teacher again.

The purpose of establishing a chamber of commerce is naturally to set commodity prices, divide their respective areas of interest, and at the same time scrape off these merchants. However, there are some purposes that Xiao Ming cannot tell Wang Shijie.

What he could tell Wang Shijie was that the Chamber of Commerce would give him an exclusive area to sell soap, but the Wang family probably would have to spend some of the money to buy it.

After sending Wang Shijie away, Xiao Ming started to prepare for the Chamber of Commerce. This time, all the merchants involved in the soap production must join the Chamber of Commerce and be uniformly included in the management, otherwise the Patent Office will not provide technology.

In the patent department, businessmen who came to consult also came into contact with the concept of the Chamber of Commerce.

"Brother Chen, this King of Qi is interesting. This patent department is already surprising. Now another chamber of commerce is set up." A businessman said with the technical information given by the patent department.

The merchant on one side had a big belly and said slowly: "I can only say that this King of Qi is not simple, we can't underestimate it. But no matter what, we have a letter from the King of Wei to the King of Qi. In fact, the King of Qi has to take care of us. After all, the King of Wei and King of Qi are neighbors."

"That's right. Butler Qian just said that King Qi will summon all merchants to discuss the matter of the chamber of commerce tomorrow. We just need to wait for the change. However, it is said that the merchants under the command of King Yan of Cui, King Chu of Li, and King Liang of Zheng of Liang of several vassal kings have all arrived this time, and the situation is not optimistic."

"Brother Chen is talking about this vassal king of different surnames, but also many merchants under the command of all the princes." He looked at the yard of the Patent Office. The merchants gathered together in groups of three or three, with silk and satin on their bodies, and all wearing gold and gold.

The next day, as the Patent Office said, Xiao Ming summoned nearly a thousand merchants from Qingzhou in the Governor's Mansion.

For the profit of soap, no merchants were absent.

Sitting in the residence of the Governor's Office, Xiao Ming looked at the merchants with a smile.

Many of these merchants brought letters from handwritten by vassal kings or ministers. The meaning was very clear, just to ask Xiao Ming to take care of him. What surprised Xiao Ming was that there were letters from several princes and princesses among them.

However, the people who came to the letter probably knew that this letter was like waste paper for Xiao Ming. After all, Xiao Ming's arrogant and perverted personality was not just about saying it, but they did so just an explanation to the businessmen under their command.

At this time, the merchants below were either proud, frowning, or whispering. Although they had a strong background, they were still low-ranking merchants and did not dare to be rude to Xiao Ming.

"I'm sure you'll call you here today. It's for the purpose of the Chamber of Commerce." The merchants arrived, and Xiao Ming took a sip of water and began to talk about the Chamber of Commerce.

"I would like to ask His Highness the King of Qi to make a clear statement." The merchants said in unison.

Xiao Ming said, "You are probably here to Qingzhou for soap, drunk Qingzhou and perfume. The purpose of this chamber of commerce is to be able to purchase these three products fairly for sale."

As soon as these words came out, the businessman below immediately became restless and asked, "Your Highness means not only the production of soap, but will perfume be opened for production in Zuiqingzhou?"

"No, Perfume and Zui Qingzhou will not open up technology for the time being, but those who join the Chamber of Commerce will get the right to sell." Xiao Ming responded.

"This is not bad."

"Very good."

"It's not in vain."

“…”

The merchants were immediately excited.

Xiao Ming continued: "This is the purpose of the Chamber of Commerce. Anyone from the Chamber of Commerce can buy and sell all the goods opened in Qingzhou in the future, but while enjoying the convenience, the Chamber of Commerce also has its own rules..."

Then Xiao Ming transmitted the rules of the chamber of commerce through the technology crystal.

One of the clear regulations is that the sales area of ​​goods in the chamber of commerce must be obtained from the chamber of commerce, and all goods of the chamber of commerce are priced by the chamber of commerce, and the chamber of commerce will establish an arbitration department to arbitrate malicious competition among merchants under the chamber of commerce.

These new concepts are transmitted through the technology crystal, making these merchants who come here feel enlightened. A new business structure makes these merchants amazed.

"I think you should understand now that this is the map of the Great Yu Kingdom. The map is all prefectures and counties in the Great Yu Kingdom. The auction of management rights takes prefectures as a point. Now I give you time to think about it. Those who are willing to join the Chamber of Commerce and get rich profits. Those who are unwilling to join the Chamber of Commerce will leave Qingzhou. The right to choose is in your hands. I will not force it." Xiao Ming said at the end.
Chapter completed!
