Wu Song said, "Sir, our No. 1 restaurant is completely different from the other restaurants. Although it is not as poetic and picturesque, it also has its own unique flavor."
“It’s hard to compare.”
Zhao Hao smiled softly. Of course he knew this. What he admired was the elegant arrangement and design, which was so top-notch.
Just then, the owners of several businesses arrived together and came forward to greet Zhao Hao.
After the greetings, several people briefly introduced themselves.
A short, fat middle-aged man with a mustache was the first to speak.
"My Lord, I am the owner of Dachang in Shu. Dachang comes from the Hu family."
After the short and fat middle-aged man finished his introduction, the middle-aged man next to him who was also short and very thin spoke next.
"Greetings, Lord Marquis. I am the owner of Tongxiang in Shu. Tongxiang comes from the Mou family."
Next came the tallest middle-aged man.
"Greetings, Lord. I am the owner of the Tailong ship of Shu State. The Tailong ship is owned by the Xu family."
Finally, there was the fattest old man among the four.
"My Lord, I am the owner of Jufenghao, from the Liu family."
After the four people had introduced themselves, Qingniao said, "My Lord, these four businesses are the largest businesses in Shu, and these four are from the four top families in Shu."
Of course, there are more than just these four top families in Shu Kingdom, and their number is much greater than that of Dagan.
However, the ones that run businesses, and are the top ones, are these four.
Zhao Hao smiled slightly and nodded: "Okay, I'm very happy to meet you all in Yixian Building, please take a seat."
The four of them said in unison: "Thank you, Lord!"
Seeing that Zhao Hao was so young, so handsome, and yet could achieve such incredible achievements, everyone was very curious and a little in awe.
After sitting down, Qingniao went out and ordered the dishes to be served, and soon, some very distinctive Shu dishes were served.
It was also the first time that Zhao Hao saw it, and he simply tasted it.
As for wine and beverages, the most famous one in Shu is Xinghua Village.
The alcohol content is not high, the taste is smooth and the aftertaste is good, which gives it a unique flavor.
It is very different from the Snowflake Wine and Rose Dew from Da Gan.
certainly.
It’s even worse than dry wine.
As they ate and chatted, Zhao Hao also learned about the situation of the four businesses.
We also talked a lot about the different customs and cultures of the two countries.
In short, we talked about a lot of things from all over the world.
When they had almost finished eating, Zhao Hao got down to business.
Zhao Hao said, "My dear bosses, your respective businesses should have had a lot of cooperation with the treasury of Princess Yucheng, right?"
The owner of Dachang said, "My Lord, we do have cooperation with the Imperial Treasury, but our business is very diverse and we don't have much cooperation."
"Comparatively speaking, there is more cooperation between our businesses."
Hearing this, the other three owners also nodded.
Zhao Hao nodded slightly, which was understandable.
After all, the status of the Imperial Treasury is too transcendent, and it controls super-large businesses such as the lifeline of the country.
These large businesses belonging to big families must have cooperation with the imperial treasury.
But, to some extent, it is also a competitive relationship.
Therefore, these businesses tend to stick together.
To protect oneself.
Zhao Hao said warmly: "As you all know, I have invented and manufactured many things in Da Gan, and they are all in great demand."
"Dry wine, soap, white linen paper, and the latest porcelain, as long as you take these things out, you will make a lot of money."
"Her Royal Highness Princess Yucheng is very interested in cooperating with me. I will supply the goods, and Her Royal Highness Princess's royal treasury will be sold in Shu."
"But what I think is that the treasury is still limited after all, and the channels are not as comprehensive as those of the businesses of the bosses."
"So, when I work with Her Royal Highness the Princess, I want to bring all of you along as well."
"In this way, the sales channels are complete and diverse, and the income will definitely be higher than cooperating only with the internal treasury."
"I wonder if the owners are willing to cooperate?"
Hearing this, the four of them suddenly became excited, and even their breathing became rapid.
The owner of Dachanghao said quickly: "My Lord, if we can really participate in this, we will never forget your kindness!"
The owner of Tongxiang also said anxiously: "Yes, Lord, you took us with you. This is a great favor from heaven. We will never forget it!"
The short and fat old man, the owner of the Jufeng, also nodded and said, "This is a business that is sure to make money, and it can even make a lot of money. The Marquis took us with him, which really shows that he thinks highly of us!"
After a pause, the short and fat old man said, "We know that the Marquis came to our Shu Kingdom this time to make peace between the two countries, but now the court is hesitant."
"If we can cooperate with the Marquis, even though we are from an aristocratic family and don't have much say in the court, we are willing to do our best!"
When Zhao Hao heard this, his eyes lit up. This was exactly what he wanted to hear.
Nodding, Zhao Hao said softly: "What Elder Liu said is true. This Marquis really came here to make peace between the two countries."
"It is indeed true that I hope you can stand on the side of peace with Daikan."
"However, this is a matter of national importance, and I will never force you to make a choice on this."
"Cooperation is cooperation. It is definitely not selling out our interests to you, nor is it buying you off with interests."
"Of course, if you all sincerely feel that establishing friendly relations with Da Gan is the right path and a good choice, based on this, I will be grateful if you can do your bit for the friendship between the two countries in your spare time."
