Chapter 774 Shen Chuke
The person who strode into the elegant room was naturally the president of the Nebula Chamber of Commerce, Shen Chuke.
He is tall and tall, like a mountain peak towering in the world, which is daunting... His beard is thick and rough, which adds a bit of heroic temperament to him. The fur coat on his body is made from the extreme cold outside the Great Wall. Made of precious animal skins hunted in the land, there is no second one in the world.
His eyes are as sharp as a knife, as if they can penetrate all appearances and reach people's hearts. If someone who doesn't know him sees him, they will definitely mistakenly think that he is some swordsman beyond the Great Wall, wandering around the world, enjoying revenge and revenge. .
But who would have thought that this majestic hero is actually the president of the largest chamber of commerce in the world, controls an unparalleled wealth, and is one of the richest people in the world!
When he walked in, the three people present stood up.
“President.”
Zixuan looked apologetic and bowed slightly.
Fu Qingzhou smiled and cupped his hands: "I have admired you for a long time, President Shen."
Wu Yan was not very good at speaking in public, so he cupped his hands and casually said "I admire you for a long time." .
"Hahahaha, you two, please sit down, please sit down."
Shen Chuke smiled very boldly: "Zixuan, go get my best tea!"
"Yes." Zixuan responded softly and left the room with small steps.
Shen Chuke sat down at her original position, and Fu Qingzhou and Wu Yan naturally followed suit.
“Let’s get straight to the point, President Shen.”
Fu Qingzhou smiled and said: "Since you know that I will come, then you must also know why I am here."
"I guessed a little."
Shen Chuke also entered the state quickly, calmly Said: "Cooperating with the Xishuo Palace is more complicated than Shen imagined."
"When Prince Zhao found Shen, he promised that he could use the power of the Xishuo Palace to raise the Nebula Chamber of Commerce to become an imperial merchant. He agreed to let Shen take over 40% of the commercial properties of the Xishuo Palace, so Shen entered the situation and helped Prince Zhao to seize the power of the palace's number one retainer."
"After that, Shen entered the game. There is a contract with Prince Zhao, and Shen holds the property on behalf of Prince Zhao.”
Daichi is a relatively modern word, but fortunately Fu Qingzhou understood it.
He frowned slightly: "This matter sounds a bit complicated. In other words, you paid and helped Zhao Hao recruit some forces in the palace, and he promised to let you become an imperial merchant?"
"Exactly."
Shen Chuke said solemnly: "But now more than half a year has passed, and the matter of Huangshang has been delayed."
"Because Zhao Hao He himself couldn't convince King Xishuo." Fu Qingzhou's eyes were slightly confused: "He was even imprisoned by the prince until he escaped a few days ago and asked me for help."
"That's right." Shen Chuke nodded: "Logically speaking, Shen should be from Prince Zhao, but not long after, the prince came to me personally."
He said it very briefly, roughly explaining the whole story. After a while.
Things are not complicated. To put it simply, King Xishuo accepted Zhao Hao’s promise and promised to help Nebula Chamber of Commerce become an imperial merchant, but becoming an imperial merchant "of course cannot be that easy." , they first have to rush to produce some products for "bidding" in response to the needs of the court.
What are these products?
It’s armor, it’s weapons, it’s war horse harness, it’s medicine.
It’s all war supplies!
Of course, the war in northern Xinjiang was still stalemate, and the demons in southern Xinjiang were also making a big fuss. The imperial court needed high-quality and cheap war materials. This was normal. Although Shen Chuke also left some snacks, he still went ahead. Rush production.
Under normal circumstances, private merchants of many military supplies are absolutely not allowed to manufacture them privately. Just like weapons, it is impossible for private blacksmith shops to produce military-standard weapons, and it is impossible for private drug stores to purchase and deploy them in a short time. If an extremely large amount of wound medicine is given, if this happens, you will be jailed.
But now with King Xishuo’s promise, Nebula Chamber of Commerce naturally dares to do it.
But as mentioned before, Shen Chuke also left some treats.
He looked very heroic, but to be able to do such a big business, he must have a dirty heart -
On the most sensitive armors and military standard weapons, he had all the craftsmen stamped with the label of Prince Xishuo. Of course, these labels are placed in extremely hidden positions, and if you don't know it, you won't notice it at all.
Not long after, the Xishuo Palace sent a sum of money, which was said to be money for the purchase of these military supplies. It said that the bidding still had to go on, but the military supplies were in urgent need at the moment, and the Nebula Chamber of Commerce provided The things needed to be sent to the front line first, so the imperial court had spent money to buy them all.
This is exactly what Shen Chuke wants.
Soon after, he sent some spies to the front lines in northern and southern Xinjiang.
These spies quietly rummaged through every batch of military supplies sent to the front line by the imperial court, but did not find a single label.
The armors, weapons, horse gear, medicines made by the Nebula Chamber of Commerce...all disappeared.
"Shen is not a fool."
Shen Chuke said leisurely: "I can see that the Xishuo Palace has evil intentions."
Fu Qingzhou secretly expressed his admiration.
A small gesture allowed him to find clues.
“But more than half a year has passed, our Nebula Chamber of Commerce has been deeply bound to the Prince Xishuo’s Mansion.” Shen Chuke smiled casually: “If King Xishuo really does something at this time, our Nebula Chamber of Commerce promises that everyone’s business will be safe and sound. It’s time to finish.”
When he talked about such a big thing, he didn’t change his tone at all. Instead, he talked and laughed as usual, as if he was talking about a family matter.
But Zixuan next to him was obviously not that kind.
She had already returned to the room and was making tea elegantly. But listening to these words, her face was obviously a little pale.
Fu Qingzhou smiled and said: "President Shen, don't you want to try the Conglong Kung Fu?"
"Just kidding."
Shen Chuke laughed and said: "His King Xishuo At this point, I have not leaked any information to Shen, which means that he does not believe me - I was recruited by Prince Zhao. As soon as I entered the prince's palace, I first selected the prince's most trusted retainer. How could he tolerate me? "
"According to Shen, if the prince really wants to cause trouble, the first person to be dealt with is me, Shen Chuke!"
After that, he took a sip of tea and put down the cup in his hand: "Thank you, Mr. Fu, for being smart enough to find Shen."
Fu Qingzhou blinked: "King Xishuo invites you to this Xuanmeng ceremony. Why?”
“It is said that Shen is on standby. He said that after this ceremony, there may be important matters handed over to Shen, which is also the key to the Nebula Chamber of Commerce becoming an imperial merchant.”
Shen Chuke said solemnly: "I guess, I'm afraid there will be drastic changes in this ceremony."
Fu Qingzhou smiled and said noncommittally: "Since Chairman Shen was worried about drastic changes, he never tried to find me? ”
"I dare not."
Shen Chuke said calmly: "If Shen's guess is correct, the two most terrifying demons in the world - Jiang Baichuan and Huijue are both under the hands of the prince. If I act rashly, what will happen to me?" It won’t get any better.”
Fu Qingzhou curled his lips and said, “Then you let us enter your territory and talk to you in detail?”
“So Shen arranged an ambush and planted the poison. Tea."
Shen Chuke said with a smile: "For a while, the two of them will have to act together to make a scene of breaking up."
"Our side..."
He turned to look at Zixuan: "From now on, Zixuan will have died by drinking poisonous tea by mistake during the battle."
Zixuan His expression remained unchanged as he gently added two cups of new tea and handed them to Fu Qingzhou and Wu Yan.
Fu Qingzhou picked up the teacup, twirled it between his fingers, and said softly: "Then I have an additional female secret envoy from Mingjian Pavilion from Beijing."
Said After that, he and Shen Chuke looked at each other and smiled.
