The investment conference reached its climax with the arrival of King Yu.
His Royal Highness King Yu and Prince Xerxes hit it off and had a pleasant conversation. They spoke highly of the profound friendship and commercial exchanges between the Bactria Empire and Sasanian Persia.
During the meeting, His Royal Highness King Yu expressed the hope that the Beiting Protectorate would deepen business cooperation with Sassanid Persia, and welcomed Sasanian Persian royal merchants to invest in emerging commercial projects in Beiting.
Prince Xerxes said that he recognized Beiting's rapid development and strong talent construction in recent years, and was willing to reach a comprehensive strategic cooperative relationship with Beiting in the commercial field.
Compared with Prince Xerxes, the Prime Minister of Khotan, Gong Yuchang, and the second chief of Xue Yantuo, Mamalao, had a more ambiguous attitude, and did not have a clear intention to be on good terms with Beiting.
Seeing that the atmosphere was almost complete, Zhang Peng knew that it was time for him to make his debut. He walked up to the high platform set up in the banquet hall, held a large tin speaker, and cleared his throat.
All the guests in the banquet hall gradually quieted down and turned their attention to Zhang Peng.
"His Royal Highness King Yu, Prince Xerxes, Chancellor Gong Yu, and Elder Moma thank you for coming to the first investment conference in Beiting. All heroes of the Western Regions and Silk Road giants, you are also very welcome to meet with me in Beiting.
Celebrate the great event!"
Zhang Peng laughed and his voice was very loud.
"Brother-in-law, please stop using the polite words. I know you have prepared some rare things this time, so hurry up and show them off!" The person with the highest status in the room was Li Xiao. This was the first time he felt that there was no one around him.
Feeling constrained, I actually didn't even care about my manners at this moment.
"Your Highness Prince Yu, please be patient and don't be impatient. Good tea is not afraid of slow cooking, but you can't eat hot tofu if you are impatient," Zhang Peng casually responded to Li Xiao's teasing, full of confidence, as if everything was under his control.
Everyone in the audience was amused by the weird words Zhang Peng said.
"Zhang Junma, we have a lot of patience, but if your tea isn't fragrant enough, we won't buy it."
"Zhang Junma, I don't drink tea or eat tofu, just give me the right to sell soap!"
"Zhang Junma, I heard that you made green salt, is it true?"
Of course, there are also businessmen who are courted by the imperial court and are acting strangely.
"Beiting's association with the exiled Persian prince has aroused the wrath of Dashi. I'll see how Beiting ends up."
"Prince Yu of Daxia is just an unfavored export prince. Don't be frightened by his name."
All of a sudden, there was a lot of discussion in the audience, and the two voices overturned each other without giving in.
At this time, Feng Yuxi quietly entered the venue through the small door of Shuiyun Tower in casual clothes. In order not to attract attention, he sat in a small pavilion on the second floor.
"I know that everyone is very interested in several products recently developed by the Princess's Mansion." Zhang Peng nodded without comment, but he never thought that he could make all the businessmen in the Western Regions good friends with him.
Everyone's attraction far exceeds my personal face, you guys are dishonest."
The wealthy businessmen from the Western Regions in the audience laughed one after another.
"So, I won't disappoint you either. Come and bring us our treasure!"
With a wave of Zhang Peng's hand, a group of etiquette ladies in cheongsam walked onto the stage each holding a tray.
These etiquette ladies are all carefully selected from the princess's palace. All of them have well-proportioned figures and good-looking faces. Although they are not very skilled in etiquette, they are definitely an explosive visual impact in this era.
.
Off the field, after a brief silence, various swallowing sounds were heard.
Zhang Peng clearly understood the nature of these veteran drivers from the Western Regions. The cheongsam, a beautiful garment specially designed for oriental women, is definitely a killer weapon in ancient and modern times!
There were many female family members who came with their men. They were envious of the beautiful figures of the etiquette ladies on the stage wearing cheongsams, and they were also very angry at their men's piggy looks. For a time, countless "
The "dragon grip" exerts force on the men's waists.
"First of all, I would like to congratulate the female guests who came with me this time. In order to meet the needs of female compatriots and improve the quality of life of female compatriots, this investment conference has specially opened a new clothing exhibition and sales event!"
"Everyone has seen that the new style of clothing worn by our etiquette girls is called cheongsam. Let's talk about it, is it glamorous and gorgeous enough?"
The men in the audience all nodded in agreement, while the women changed their "dragon gripper" to "cloud explorer" and searched for the men's pockets one after another.
"In addition to this clothing exhibition, clothing as exquisite and gorgeous as cheongsam will be sold at a counter in the soon-to-be-built Beiting Supermarket, occupying the entire building on the east side of the supermarket. The princess personally named the counter: Women's Street. As the name suggests,
It is a consumer paradise created for all female compatriots!”
The male compatriots in the audience immediately became vigilant, while the female compatriots became excited.
Women's Street? A hypermarket specially set up for women? It was the first time for the women present to hear such interesting news.
Feng Yuxi, who was sitting in the attic on the second floor, suddenly felt that something was wrong. Wasn't Zhang Peng trying to win over the businessmen from the Western Regions? Why was he saying these words to help women? What was his intention?
Also confused were Li Xiao, Xerxes and Lao Henis sitting in the front row of the venue.
"Friends, my teacher said that behind a successful man there must be a woman who loves him. Don't deny it in a hurry. If you brought your wife to the venue, then please take a moment to look at you.
wife!"
"The day you decided to set foot on the world of commerce and embark on the Silk Road, who sold your few gold and silver jewelry to get capital for you?"
"When you are ups and downs in a business war, trying your best to get an order or open a trade route but in vain, who will be by your side to share the joys and sorrows with you? To cheer you up?"
"When you are the leader in the industry and run your business empire and have no time to take care of your family, who will take care of the elderly, raise your children, and manage the household affairs on your behalf at home?"
"When you were in a crisis and were chased, intercepted, or even kidnapped by bandits, who withstood the pressure and helped you save your family business?"
After a few questions settled down, all the married wealthy businessmen from the Western Regions present looked at their wives with shame on their faces.
And these ladies were also caught off guard by the sudden tender scene. Not only did the "dragon grasping hand" lose its strength, but the "cloud detecting hand" also lost its accuracy.
"As time goes by in a hurry, I only care about you. I am willing to be tainted with your breath, put decals on the mirror, give birth to children for you, and support your parents! Friends, this is the whole ideal of your wife's life. You can do whatever you want outside.
Travel around, see everything in the world, and appreciate the beauty of the world, but in their world, there is only you."
Having said this, the men in the audience were already moved, and the eyes they looked at their wives became more and more gentle.
The female compatriots were even more moved to tears by these words, and for a while, faint sobbing could be heard in the venue.
In the attic, Feng Yuxi stood up. Not to mention others, even he was a little moved after hearing Zhang Peng's words just now. He had already guessed a thing or two about Zhang Peng's plan.
What a roundabout tactic. It must be very difficult to directly talk to the businessmen in the Western Regions who are as smart as foxes, but it will be very simple to directly attack their wives!
Zhang Peng smiled lightly and motioned to the etiquette ladies to open the cover on the tray.
As the masks were lifted one by one, the treasures on the tray finally revealed their true appearance. They were bags of different shapes but very exquisite and beautiful!
Although it is far inferior to Xu Wanyi's, in this era, these bags are enough to lead the fashion trend.
"Oh my God, bags!"
"So many styles, wow, they all look good!"
The appearance of the bag once again caused quite a stir.
"Friends, look at the white hair that is faintly visible on her temples, look at the wrinkles at the corners of her eyes that are hard to hide, and look at her cheeks that are no longer firm and supple. Who have they worked so hard all their lives for?"
The corners of Feng Yuxi's mouth twitched, and he sighed in his heart, this guy is going to get into trouble!
