Sometimes when people reach a unanimous judgment, it doesn't matter whether the judgment is true or not, right or wrong.
"Doing business is different from other things, too. When everyone thinks you are finished, you are really finished."
The old man leaned on the recliner and said slowly: "Confidence, confidence is very important. Your own confidence depends on the confidence of others in you."
Qingxi is already very old.
The deep wrinkles and scattered age spots on his face all tell the traces of time. They are either history or stories.
In recent years, the Four Seas Business Alliance seems to be fading like him.
But the day never falls, and the night never comes.
Many people think that the Four Seas Merchant Alliance is stale and decrepit. It has a long history and of course it also carries the atmosphere of the past.
Qingxi's era should be in the past, but he actually exists in the present.
How long has he been the leader of the Four Seas Merchant Alliance?
This question is asked to many people, even people within the Four Seas Business Alliance. Many people don't have the answer.
Because it takes too long.
When many people knew about the Four Seas Merchant Alliance, Qingxi was already the master of the Four Seas Merchant Alliance.
"Qingxi, like the Four Seas Business Alliance, has reached its twilight years, and the long night is approaching." This was Su She's evaluation.
The latter sentence says that Jubao Chamber of Commerce is like the rising sun, which will eventually shine in the sky after a long night.
It's just that it's too late.
The biggest crisis of the Four Seas Merchant Alliance in recent years is nothing but the Yang Kingdom.
The original intention is to monopolize the business of rebuilding the Yang land and suck the blood of the people of the Yang land to support himself.
But he never expected that the battle of Qiyang would break out unexpectedly by the merchant alliance. The Jubao Chamber of Commerce was targeted by Chu Liang, the Chongxuan who led the battle. The Jubao Chamber of Commerce bet on the Zhongxuan family and won a lot of money.
The huge investment in Yangdi was in vain, and the losses were extremely heavy. Even the first-class deacon Fu Miao went to the military camp to discuss in person, but he could not recover the losses. Instead, he had an ear cut off, his prestige was ruined, and his face was lost.
Faced with the Chongxuan family, which was in full swing after the war and had two feudal lords, the Four Seas Merchant Alliance remained silent. They broke their teeth and swallowed blood, and forcibly endured the loss.
The earliest Sihai Merchant Alliance was a loose alliance composed of a total of eighteen chambers of commerce, and the executive system was the result of the continuation of the power structure at that time.
Today, the twelve first-class deacons still represent the highest will of the Four Seas Merchant Alliance, but gradually no one remembers the names of those earlier chambers of commerce.
There has always been no doubt about Qing Xi's control over the Four Seas Merchant Alliance, but in recent years, things have indeed changed and people's minds have moved.
Either he is no longer that concerned about the affairs of the Merchant Alliance, or Qingxi is no longer able to do what he wants... In short, there are actually a lot of voices within the Sihai Merchant Alliance.
Faced with the huge losses of Yangdi at that time, the mainstream opinion in the Four Seas Merchant Alliance was to retaliate at all costs. The Four Seas Merchant Alliance's status in the business community could not be challenged. It was Qingxi who suppressed the situation and swallowed the matter.
It was precisely because of this decision that many people saw that Qingxi still had decision-making power over the merchant alliance.
It was precisely because of the correctness of this decision that the Four Seas Merchant Alliance was able to survive the crisis smoothly. As a result, when Chongxuan Sheng turned against the Jubao Chamber of Commerce, and when the Jubao Chamber of Commerce suffered heavy losses, the Four Seas Merchant Alliance was left with a mouth full of oil.
Qingxi's prestige was once again established.
Over the years, the Four Seas Merchant Alliance has had its ups and downs, but it has always been the number one trading house in Qi.
Fu Miao Gong stood aside, one of his ears being cut off allowed him to hear the words better now: "At this time, who is destroying the confidence in Jubao?"
"Chong Xuan Sheng, Wang Yi Wu, those small trading houses that have been working together recently... there are too many possibilities." Qing Xi said slowly: "Of course it might be us."
"Wang Yiwu?"
Behind this matter is Chongxuan Sheng or the Four Seas Merchant Alliance itself, Fu Miao can understand. Even those small trading houses in series are possible. After all, the market has been stable for so long, and the behemoths inside have fallen, and they can
Squeeze in.
But...Wang Yiwu?
Qing Xi raised his hand and did not explain. "The Four Seas Merchant Alliance is the same as me. They are old, have bad teeth, and are unhappy. I let them eat freely, but they didn't eat too much."
He sighed: "Whether it is vision or execution ability, they are far behind Zhong Xuan Sheng."
"You are always going strong." Fu Miao complimented: "If you came forward, the situation would be different."
But he didn't think so in his heart.
What the Merchant Alliance did in Yangdi was ugly and rotten... Although Fu Miao was also among them, he knew very well that those things had completely deviated from the past of the Four Seas Merchant Alliance. Not that the Four Seas Merchant Alliance had always been
How upright, kind and benevolent it is. However, the Four Seas Business Alliance in the past would never do anything so blatant and ugly.
He could see clearly, and the other deacons were not fools. Who couldn't see clearly? It was just that they didn't want to see, or didn't care. They only cared about themselves and what was in front of them.
The current Four Seas Merchant Alliance is indeed bloated and full of carrion.
Although Qing Xi holds the direction, it is difficult to say that he can still give instructions on specific matters. Perhaps... Qing Xi only made the decision to cooperate with Chong Xuan Sheng, but did not come forward in other specific matters, just to cover up this
Not sure at all.
Of course, Fu Miao only dared to ponder these words in his heart and would never dare to say them out loud.
Qing Xi was noncommittal and didn't seem to see through the insincerity of his words. He just slowly closed his eyes and ordered: "Go do it."
What he was asked to do was naturally to cooperate with the news that had emerged and further make the "desperate situation" of the Jubao Chamber of Commerce known to the public.
Fu Miao understood the idea, gently tucked the old leader's blanket, and then quietly stepped away.
This small courtyard has been around for a long time, and the smell of time is floating in the air.
When he walked to the door, he suddenly felt a little stiff in his joints and could hardly move his legs... but he recovered quickly.
I've been too nervous lately, he thought.
…
The Generalissimo's Mansion.
When Wang Yiwu walked in, Wen Lianmu was still playing with the chess pieces boredly. He took a closer look and saw two black and white pieces on the chessboard, arranged in the shape of the word "Wen Lian", and the word "Mu" was halfway placed.
Wang Yiwu couldn't help but said: "Three-year-old children don't play like this anymore."
Wen Lianmu curled his lips: "I'm not your senior brother, so what's the point of playing chess with yourself? Have you finished handling the conflict in the army?"
"It's a small matter." Wang Yiwu downplayed it and asked, "Has the news been released?"
Wen Lianmu knew that he was talking about the Seven Star Tower, so he stopped writing, looked up at him and said, "We didn't 'release' this news, it was Chong Xuan Sheng who worked hard to 'find' it himself. He will decide the time."
Wang Yiwu nodded in approval: "Where's the Jubao Chamber of Commerce?"
Wen Lianmu was noncommittal: "Has Su She looked for you?"
"yes."
"What do you think?"
"The cooperation with the Jubao Chamber of Commerce was decided by A Zun. Although I can't contact him now, this is his stall, and of course I have to respect his opinion."
"Come forward to help Su She?"
Wang Yiwu nodded: "That's right."
"Maintain the cooperative relationship, stop Zhong Xuansheng's plot, and consolidate the market..." Wen Lianmu nodded: "Well, it's very reasonable."
Wang Yiwu said nothing, waiting for his next words.
"then you go."
Wang Yiwu paused, obviously a little surprised that Wen Lianmu didn't stop him.
After thinking for a moment, he asked: "What about you? What do you do?"
"You go and help Su She hold up the scene and build up her confidence. In short, if you can help, you can help. If you can't help, don't force it."
Wen Lianmu smiled: "As for me..."
He picked up the chess piece and continued to place the unfinished word "木".
"I helped bury him."
