At this time, many people were already watching outside the venue.
Because the purpose of the Wanbang Chamber of Commerce is to promote buying and selling, the Ministry of Revenue also spent a certain amount of effort in publicity in the past to let the people know that today, you can buy things you have never seen before here at the cheapest price.
foreign goods.
And this made the people very curious.
Therefore, outside the venue, people were surrounding in three circles inside and three outside, watching the excitement while waiting for the official convening of the Wanbang Chamber of Commerce to take a look at the novel foreign products.
It was very lively outside the venue.
It's the same thing inside the venue.
Caravans from more than 120 countries all sent their most important leaders and gathered together.
At this time, they were standing under the high platform, chatting with each other, and waiting for the opening ceremony of the Wanbang Chamber of Commerce.
At this time, Warrior Yan, the Minister of Household Affairs, climbed onto the high platform.
As he walked to the high platform, the merchants below suddenly became quiet.
They looked at the warrior Yu quietly, showing their politeness and seriousness.
Warrior Yan looked around them and immediately said: "First of all, on behalf of the Tang Dynasty, I would like to welcome you all to come after traveling thousands of miles."
"Today's Wanbang Chamber of Commerce, my Majesty the Tang Dynasty, also attaches great importance to it."
"So, His Majesty personally gave us a big gift."
As he said that, two guards came up carrying a plaque.
The plaque was wrapped in red cloth and the contents inside could not be seen.
The warrior Yan grabbed one of the red cloth's legs and said, "Your Majesty personally wrote this for my Wanbang Chamber of Commerce."
Saying that, the warrior Yan grabbed it hard.
The red cloth was removed directly.
The content of the plaque also appeared in public view.
Directly above the four ancient seal characters of "Wanbang Chamber of Commerce" appear on the plaque like dragons and phoenixes.
Below, there is also Li Shimin's signature and seal.
Warrior Yan said: "My Majesty the Tang Dynasty rarely writes plaques in person, so this plaque is very valuable. It is not an exaggeration to say that it is worth ten thousand gold."
"From now on, this plaque will always hang in the venue of our All Nations Chamber of Commerce. It will witness with our own eyes the glorious economic moment of our All Nations Alliance!"
Foreign businessmen have never seen an inscription written by His Majesty, the most powerful emperor in the world, so when they looked at these four words, they couldn't help but nod, feeling full of honor.
Native agriculture, industry and commerce.
Businessmen have a low status in many countries.
Therefore, most of them are looked down upon.
Considered speculative.
However, the presence of Li Shimin's handwriting at this time is enough to show that Li Shimin takes them seriously, values them, and has high hopes for them!
And this is something these businessmen have never experienced before.
So, how could they not be excited?
How can you not be excited!
Samurai Yu took in the expressions of these businessmen.
He knew that the warm-up was much worse.
The warrior Yan smiled and said: "Then, without further ado, I will announce that the Chamber of Commerce of All Nations has been officially convened!"
Immediately, the merchants in these caravans all cheered.
Warrior Yan said: "The purpose of the Wanbang Chamber of Commerce is to promote communication between us and for our common interests. Therefore, we have only one requirement, and that is not to deceive anyone!"
"You can't pass off inferior products, you can't deceive consumers, and you can't deliberately raise prices. If you are discovered, I will directly ask you to leave, and inform the emperor of the empire behind you about the matter and let him handle it!"
As soon as Samurai Yu said these words, these businessmen were shocked.
They didn't expect that if they cheated, their emperor would be informed!
Their wealth and lives are in their country. If their emperor knows about it, how can they get any good fruits?
For a moment, they were all silent, shaking their heads quickly and saying they didn't dare.
The warrior Yan said: "What we are doing is not a one-time deal. You are just the forerunners. Behind you, there are thousands of businessmen from your country. Therefore, in the Tang Dynasty, we pay attention to courtesy first and then war. Let me explain the truth clearly to you first.
Already."
“If someone makes a mistake later, you can’t blame us for not warning us in advance!”
"certainly……"
Warrior Yan changed his words and looked at these foreign businessmen. He smiled again: "I believe that you are all honest businessmen, so these words will probably be useless one day."
"Well, no more nonsense."
The warrior Yi waved his hand and said: "Blow the gong, start the business!"
"The Wanbang Chamber of Commerce is officially opened!"
The convening of the Wanbang Chamber of Commerce does not have cumbersome procedures.
Because the participants are all businessmen and ordinary people, it is useless to tell them too many big principles. They don't care whether they can understand it or not, but they don't care in the first place.
They come here to buy and sell things.
Therefore, as long as they can benefit from each other, they will spontaneously maintain the Wanbang Chamber of Commerce.
Therefore, Samurai has specially simplified the process.
Eliminate unnecessary and useless processes.
In this way, the convening ceremony was quickly completed.
As the venue door opens.
In an instant, people poured in directly.
Just like that, the lively Chamber of Commerce officially kicked off.
Shen Lian stood in the corner, looking at the lively scene, and nodded slightly.
Warrior Yan came over and smiled at Shen Lian: "Master Shen, do you think this opening ceremony is too simple?"
Shen Lian shook his head.
He said: "What kind of people do you face and what kind of methods do you use to make people and businessmen like you?"
"If Mr. Wu talks about it for several hours, then I guess they will curse in their hearts."
Samurai Yan laughed: "I thought so too, so I temporarily deleted all unnecessary things."
He turned around and looked at the lively venue, seeing the people looking at the goods from foreign countries with novel faces, and a smile appeared on his face.
"After months of planning, months of time and energy spent, today, it's finally time to harvest."
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! "I only hope that the Wanbang Chamber of Commerce can bring wealth and strength to the Tang Dynasty as we expect."
As a descendant, Shen Lian naturally understands how such an economic boom can promote an empire.
He said: "It can take as short as a few years or as long as decades. I believe the effect will be very obvious."
"At that time, perhaps Mr. Wu's name will be recorded in the history books."
When the warrior Yan heard this, he couldn't help but look forward to it. He smiled and said, "I'm really looking forward to that day."
He looked at Shen Lian and said, "I have to take charge of other things, so I won't be accompanying Mr. Shen."
Shen Lian nodded and said, "Master Wu, just go and do your work, but don't worry about me."
The warrior Yi and Shen Lian were also very familiar with each other, so he turned around and left without further delay.
After Samurai Yan left, Shen Lian also walked casually in the venue.
While feeling the simplicity of the exposition of this era, he was also observing the performance of these caravan members.
Two problematic caravans have now been exposed.
But Shen Lian believes that this is definitely not everything!
It's just that the other problematic caravans haven't shown any clues yet, so the previous methods have had no effect so far.
Therefore, Shen Lian could only use other methods to find the thief.
Observing their performance in the Wanbang Chamber of Commerce is a very effective method.
The people who replaced those caravan members were good at disguise, but they could not truly become merchants.
They are born to kill.
So, let them fight with people to death, they are good at it.
……………………
But let them do business, Shen Lian believes that they are definitely not good at it.
Therefore, by observing the business performance of these caravan members, through the words they use to sell to the people, and their reactions when answering people's questions, you can tell whether some are not real businessmen, but pretending to be!
"Since I can't let you take the initiative to show off your flaws."
"Then let's judge based on your business capabilities."
Shen Lian narrowed his eyes slightly and his brain was running crazily.
……………………
He walked slowly through each stall.
Take a closer look at the performance of those businessmen.
And he used his terrifying brain function to quickly compare the levels of these businessmen.
This will help you identify suspects!
If others were asked to do this kind of thing, they would never be able to do it.
After all, there are more than 180 caravans, and the total number of merchants is two to three thousand.
And people who have problems will still try their best to disguise it and won't make it so obvious.
Therefore, it is really not just difficult to find the problematic people hidden among them in a short period of time, just by walking in front of them.
For others, this is simply impossible.
However, Shen Lian, who has photographic memory and the most powerful computer brain in the world, can just do it.
At this time, Shen Lian's steps suddenly stopped.
His eyes suddenly looked towards a stall he had just passed behind him.
There was a flash of light in his eyes.
"Found it!"
"Master, what's wrong?"
At this time, Sishe walked over and saw Shen Lian looking at a stall at the back with a special look, and couldn't help but ask curiously.
Shen Lian looked at the stall, raised his head, and looked at the sign above the stall.
There is a sign on every stall.
On the sign, it will be written which country the products of this stall are from.
In this way, it will be easier for the people to know the source of these goods without everyone having to ask.
And on this sign, the name of a country is written right now - Kucha!
This is a caravan from Kucha Kingdom.
Shen Lian said: "I will arrange for two plainclothes guards to test out the Qiuci Kingdom's caravan to see how good they are at doing business."
Sishe was a little puzzled when she heard Shen Lian's words.
He said: "Why are you curious about the Kingdom of Kucha, young master?"
Shen Lian didn't hide it either.
He said: "I suspect that the Kucha Kingdom is hidden, and we have not found any problematic forces in it."
"What?"
When Sishe heard this, his hair stood on end.
His eyes widened, his face full of shock and disbelief.
"real?"
"Young master really found out that there is a problem in Kucha country?"
Shen Lian said: "I have no direct evidence, but I just discovered some problems with them when I passed by them."
"What's the problem?"
Si She asked subconsciously.
Shen Lian and Si She came to a corner.
He said: "The second person from the left in the Kucha stall is preparing the unique fruit platter of Kucha, but his movements are very unfamiliar. It takes him a long time to make one, which has already caused dissatisfaction and shaking of some people's heads."
"This speed is hard for me to believe. This is the standard a businessman who can do business on behalf of that country should have."
Sishe took a closer look.
But it's just as the young master said.
It's really not fast.
And it seemed a little hectic.
He was sweating constantly and looked a little panicked.
"The man next to him is the man peeling the fruit for him."
Shen Lian's voice continued: "Look carefully at how he peels the fruit. The peel is too thick. Although it is very fast, if he peels it this way, at least two layers of the fruit will be wasted. Already."
"You think a qualified businessman would waste their precious fruits like this?"
Sishe looked at it carefully for a while.
Then he shook his head.
He said: "A qualified businessman should be eager to keep even the skin, how could he waste it like him?"
Shen Lian smiled and said, "The person on the right is the one who has been shouting."
"Did you hear clearly what he was shouting?"
Sishe listened carefully, then frowned and said, "The voice is a bit soft, and I can't even shout to the stall next door."
Shen Lian smiled and said: "Even the vendors at our street stalls in Chang'an City know that when shouting, they must be loud and confident, and they must not care about other people's eyes."
"But this person's voice was too low, and he seemed to be afraid of being noticed. He didn't even come forward to actively solicit customers."
"As a low-level person, don't you think he is unqualified in every aspect?"
Sishe nodded again: "Is that true?"
Shen Lian said: "If there are one or two problems, then maybe we can use coincidence to prove..."
"Maybe this caravan happens to have one or two people who came in through connections and are not very strong!"
"But when everyone in this caravan fails to perform up to standard, there is only one explanation!"
A light flashed deep in Shen Lian's eyes, and he sneered: "That is, no one in this caravan, inside or outside, is a real businessman!"
"Because they are not businessmen at all, it is really difficult for them to do these things!"
When Sishe heard what Shen Lian said, even at this moment, Shen Lian still had no ironclad evidence.
But Si She also completely believed Shen Lian's words.
There is definitely something wrong with this caravan in Qiuci Kingdom!
He couldn't help but said: "Master, is this what you discovered just now when you were casually walking around?"
…………
