"That scared me to death!"
After Yuan Yun left, Madam Ma patted her chest, still shaken.
The attendant quickly moved closer to Madam Ma and said, "Madam, she is, after all, the eldest princess. What you just said was too provocative. Aren't you afraid she will really get angry?"
"Of course she's angry, but she's angry at her man!"
Mrs. Ma sat down in the chair, calmed herself down, and smiled, "If I don't provoke her hard, how can she be willing to share her profits to cooperate with me?"
"What if she realizes what's going on and doesn't agree?"
"Cheng Xu, she won't refuse." Madam Ma looked confident and said, "If she doesn't agree, I'll spread the word about her bra business. What will the palace think of her then?"
The attendant, Cheng Xu, a man in his thirties, thought for a moment and said, "I've heard that the Princess is a very capable person, and that the Emperor dotes on her..."
Madam Ma interrupted, "She's already married down to Yanchuan, so it's obvious she's not favored by the Emperor. The idea that the Emperor dotes on my sister the most is definitely just a rumor. If word gets out that the Princess is selling bras, the Emperor will probably dislike her even more!"
"Is she really that good? I can't see it at all?"
Cheng Xu sighed inwardly. Although he still felt it was inappropriate, since Madam Ma wouldn't listen, he didn't want to try to persuade her anymore.
Madam Ma smiled, placed her hand on Cheng Xu's shoulder, and said softly with a charming demeanor, "How is Li Dai doing?"
Cheng Xu said, "Li Shouwei... declined your invitation."
"snort!"
Madam Ma swept the cups off the table and angrily said, "You ungrateful wretch! I invited him here because I thought highly of him, but he's given me attitude time and time again. I think he doesn't want to be a garrison commander anymore!"
Outside the prefect's residence.
Yuan Yun boarded the carriage and ordered them to head towards Hongxiu Tower.
Atao glanced at Yuan Yun's face, and seeing Yuan Yun's angry expression, said, "Your Highness, I thought you were going to attack Madam Ma..."
"That bitch is a menace, I was blind to have her," Yuan Yun cursed.
Atao said, "Your Highness has only been in Yanchuan City for a short time and is eager to make friends, so it's not your fault."
"Make friends?" Yuan Yun sneered. "Does she even deserve it?"
After a pause, Yuan Yun said, "Let's go to Acheng's place first, and I'll deal with this bitch later!"
Atao asked, "Does Your Highness really think the Prince Consort went to find a girl?"
"No."
Yuan Yun shook her head and said, "Didn't you hear? Acheng entered Hongxiu Tower at noon, but Hongxiu Tower only pulled down the tarpaulin at Shenshi to say it was for maintenance. I'm worried that Acheng might be in danger."
Atao was startled and said, "That's quite possible! There's something wrong with Hongxiu Tower, so they're using repairs as a cover!"
As she spoke, Atao called out to the outside of the carriage, "Guard Heng, hurry up!"
...
Hongxiulou.
"I've already thought of a name."
"Our chamber of commerce will be called the Eastern Chamber of Commerce!"
After listening to Zhao Cheng's explanation, everyone exchanged glances and nodded in agreement.
"Eastern Chamber of Commerce, rising in the east, excellent!" Xu An was the first to express his opinion.
Zhao Cheng shouted, "What nonsense about sunrise? That's not what it means! East represents the Eastern Land! The Eastern Land isn't just Da Jing, it also includes Nan Zhou! The chamber of commerce I'm going to establish will definitely be a multinational chamber of commerce, understand?!"
Xu An nodded: "I think I understand."
Xiao Luomu said, "My Xiao family is in Jingdong County, and Yanchuan City also belongs to the eastern part of Dajing. Of course I agree with the name Dongfang!"
Cai Yilu said, "This name is grand and excellent!"
Agreed!
"I agree!"
"I agree!"
Seeing everyone's approval, Zhao Cheng slammed his hand on the table and shouted, "Then it's settled!"
"Now let me describe the general structure."
Zhao Cheng looked at Zheng Hongxiu and Xiao Luomu on his left and right and said, "After the Chamber of Commerce is established, I will not be officially named, but I will do my best behind the scenes. Whether it is money, people, connections, or planning, I will be ahead of you. Therefore, the Chamber of Commerce needs a person in charge on the surface, that is, the chairman of the Chamber of Commerce. I have tentatively decided on Zheng Hongxiu and Xiao Luomu. Let's discuss and decide who would be better to take the lead?"
Everyone began to ponder.
Zheng Hongxiu said, "I suggest Xiao Luomu."
Xiao Luomu smiled without saying a word.
Zheng Hongxiu continued, "I don't doubt my abilities. I can do it if I want to, but I am, after all, a brothel owner, which is not good for the reputation of the Chamber of Commerce. Besides, the Xiao family is a large and powerful family, and is already the largest merchant in Jingdong County. Xiao Luomu is the successor of the Xiao family. If he takes the lead, we will accept it, and outsiders will also accept it."
“Yes!” Zhao Cheng nodded. This was actually something he and Zheng Hongxiu had discussed long ago.
Zhao Cheng looked at Xiao Luomu and said, "Brother Xiao, what do you think?"
Xiao Luomu smiled and said, "I only have one question: after I become the chairman of this chamber of commerce, will the Xiao family and the chamber of commerce have a cooperative relationship, or will the Xiao family be the main entity?"
"Haha, Brother Xiao, this isn't your style!" Zhao Cheng laughed.
Xiao Luomu frowned slightly and asked, "What do you mean, Young Prime Minister?"
Zhao Cheng stood up from his chair, walked behind Xiao Luomu, put his hands on Xiao Luomu's shoulders, and said, "If you become the chairman, the Eastern Chamber of Commerce will be based on you, Xiao Luomu! From now on, the Xiao family will not be the Xiao family behind you, Xiao Luomu, but your own Xiao family!"
Buzz!
Xiao Luomu's mind clicked, and he immediately understood Zhao Cheng's meaning.
While Xiao Luomu was still pondering, Zhao Cheng continued, "You are the chairman, and our team is the presidium. From now on, whether it's the Xiao family, the Xu family, the Dong family, the Li family, or my Zhao family, we are all just members of the Chamber of Commerce, and our team's decisions will take precedence!"
