Naturally, the distinguished family disdains to compete with ordinary businessmen for glory. There is nothing to be proud of if they win, and it is disgraceful if they lose.
Among the four established merchant families of the Yue Kingdom, Jiang, Qin, Lin, and Wang, the Jiang family was the most powerful. They were intertwined with the imperial court and nobles, and their power was huge.
In the past, it was basically presided over by the Jiang family. Later, in order to allow a hundred schools of thought to contend, they began to gradually let go of their power and also gave some opportunities to others.
After each of the four major merchants took charge, they began to allow upstarts in the business world to come forward. As soon as they debuted, Xue Ling and Zhong Yi took the lead in the Vietnamese business community with their abundant funds, causing a great sensation.
In order to balance the power of the four families, the royal family also wanted to attack the other families, so when the two of them got up, it went very smoothly. In addition, they were willing to spend money and had people in the officialdom and the court, so they acted in an unstoppable manner.
After making a fortune, he became a force that even the four major established merchants dare not underestimate.
In the past two years, they have become the most outstanding private business representatives besides the imperial merchants and the aristocratic merchants.
In order to get this opportunity to hold the event, the two of them worked hard and used their own unique tricks in the chamber of commerce.
In the end, the four major merchants combined their efforts and decided to let the two of them cooperate to hold this summer party together in order to suppress their development momentum.
Although their intention was to attack the two of them, it actually fulfilled their wish to work together to serve the eldest lady.
The two of them were not happy, and they argued for a while on the surface, and then each of them got angry and happily agreed "reluctantly".
Those old foxes thought that their plot had succeeded and they could take the opportunity to suppress them, lest one of them get the opportunity to show his face than the other and become more powerful in Beijing.
On the second day of June, the weather was fine and cloudless.
The entire capital was shocked, especially the business circles.
Because today is the first day for the two rivals Wan Shenghe and Qian Ruifu to cooperate, and it is also a summer party that is famous in the capital. It is said that all the famous businessmen of Yue State will attend this summer party.
Those merchants who have some money and status but not enough are not eligible to participate and can only join in the fun on the periphery.
The summer party was held in Baicao Garden and Baihua Valley outside the city.
Baiyuan Garden is a private estate of Xue Ling, occupying half of the hilltop. The other half of the hilltop is naturally Zhong Yi's Baihua Valley.
The summer party started around midnight on the second day of the Lunar New Year, and the two gardens had been busy two or three days ago.
There is an endless stream of gorgeous carriages every day, and the big businessmen come with their families and children. Even if they can't get a ranking, it would be great if they can connect with other people, develop some, and do some business.
Big profit.
Shen Mingzhu came to Baicao Garden one day in advance and met Xue Ling and Zhong Yi in the dead of night.
Xue Ling and Zhong Yi are both in their twenties, but their temperaments are completely different.
Xue Ling has an elegant and handsome appearance, a humble and warm personality, which makes people feel like he is like warm flowing water, gentle and indifferent.
He doesn't look like a businessman. He doesn't have the shrewdness and power of a businessman. Instead, he looks more like a scholar, with a bookish air.
And Zhong Yi has a gorgeous appearance, with a pair of peach blossom eyes that are one part evil and three parts pure and proud.
