Chapter 224: Special Services of the Heroes Chamber of Commerce



Zhu Ying originally thought that the battle against Japan would be a matter for the Ming Dynasty in June of next year.

Before Yao Guangxiao set out, he did tell Yao Guangxiao some of his thoughts on the Japanese pirates and Japan.

Especially Goryeo's strategic location.

I didn't expect that this guy would really do it when he has something to do.

"Boss, Master Daoyan has mobilized almost all of our forces in Goryeo. I think Lee Seong-gye has already understood everything now."

Ye Yueqing analyzed and said.

Zhu Ying smiled slightly and said, "So what if he knows? Does he have any ability to resist at the moment?"

"Master Daoyan made a brilliant move. Many of the seeds we planted in Goryeo may have become disloyal now."

"After all, Lee Seong-gye is about to be crowned king. If they choose to follow Lee Seong-gye, they will be his loyal subjects."

"And our Qun Ying Chamber of Commerce is likely to be used as a token of our allegiance. I have anticipated this."

"Now that Master Daoyan has done this, he is forcing those who have second thoughts to take sides. Driven by their current interests, they can only choose our side."

The more Zhu Ying analyzed, the more he felt that Yao Guangxiao's move was extremely clever.

It's stuck at this stage.

Most people wouldn't dare to do this. It would almost instantly mobilize the entire country of Goryeo to fight against Japan.

But it’s really cool.

It also deliberately raised the morale of the Goryeo people and soldiers.

Goryeo was so close to Japan and had suffered from the Japanese pirates for a long time. This time, the whole country of Goryeo supported the attack.

In addition, the Ming Dynasty will also send troops to Goryeo in the early spring of next year, so it can be imagined that now is the best time.

Zhu Ying felt a little sad in his heart, the prime minister in black is the prime minister in black.

No matter where it is thrown, its value can be realized quickly. The key is that this person has no concept of public opinion.

Just like a rational robot, it only cares about how to maximize benefits.

From another perspective, Goryeo's current army of 150,000 is actually a very heavy burden.

Unless they could conquer Japan in one fell swoop and plunder a large amount of wealth, if the war dragged on for a year or two, the entire Goryeo would be reduced to poverty.

The Henan epidemic is now coming to an end.

The name of King Yu had begun to spread throughout the Henan region and quickly spread to the surrounding areas.

The speed of spread was so fast that Zhu Ying was naturally behind the scenes fanning the flames.

Zhu Ying is very clear about his life experience, and there are many mysteries in it.

In fact, he had nothing to explain.

Another ten years passed without any memory of my previous life.

Perhaps apart from the old man, no one really believes absolutely that he is Zhu Xiongying.

He himself found it a little unbelievable.

Like Lan Yu, although he was so enthusiastic, it was ultimately mixed with too many personal interests.

Therefore, what Zhu Ying needed was real control over the military power, rather than relying on Lan Yu or some generals.

Instead, we should be like the old man, soldiers skip the general and be loyal to our own country.

And public opinion is also very important.

It seems that the common people and the soldiers are two groups.

In fact, in essence, they are a group.

Most of the ordinary soldiers were originally farmers, and the military farming system represented their dual identities.

It is inevitable to want the loyalty of soldiers, a good reputation, and the support of the people.

This is what people want.

If he completely relies on Lan Yu, the soldiers will only recognize Lan Yu and not the emperor, and he will be no different from a puppet.

"Your Highness, there is a message from His Majesty in the capital."

The eunuch Guo Zhong came in and reported.

Zhu Ying took it and looked at it. It turned out to be an envoy from the Timurid Empire paying tribute to the Ming Dynasty.

And the person who came this time was the grandson of the Timurid Empire.

"Boss, the Timurid Empire is very strong, and our influence on the grassland is constantly shrinking."

"The Golden Horde is now facing Timur's army and is already losing ground. It is difficult to resist."

"Timur was not just fighting the Golden Horde, he was fighting on multiple fronts."

After reading the letter, Zhu Ying passed it to Ye Yueqing.

After Ye Yueqing returned to Zhu Ying, he was again responsible for the work of intelligence collection and analysis. After reading it, Ye Yueqing introduced the Timurid Empire to Zhu Ying.

Zhu Ying didn't know much about the Timurid Empire in his previous life.

The only thing I have some impression of is the story of a million troops marching eastward to attack the Ming Dynasty, which was a large-scale military operation in history.

However, during this eastern expedition, Timur died of illness on the way, and then the entire Timurid Empire fell apart.

So Zhu Ying didn't care too much about it.

However, what Zhu Ying didn't know was.

Just by flapping his wings like a butterfly, he has begun to change the original history.

On the grassland,

Several rows of carriages, protected by hundreds of knights, headed towards Timur's army camp.

At this moment in the camp of Timur's army.

Ashina Falcon was drinking and having fun with his subordinates.

A Shi is a noble surname, which represents Ashina Falcon's identity as a natural aristocrat.

Only a noble like him is qualified to lead an army of tens of thousands.

"I wonder if the general has ever heard of the Heroes Chamber of Commerce." A general suddenly asked while drinking.

This general was different from the others. He looked a little thin among the burly men around him.

"Baye, the snowflake salt from the Qun Ying Chamber of Commerce is really a very good thing. What we are enjoying now is provided by them."

Ashina Falcon took a big bite of the roasted lamb leg and said with a laugh.

Ba Ye replied: "General, what I want to say is that in the Qun Ying Chamber of Commerce, there is a special service provided exclusively for the nobles. I wonder if you have heard of it."

When Ashina Falcon heard this, he immediately became interested.

The word "great noble" undoubtedly aroused the glory in his heart.

During the Tang Dynasty, the only Turkic noble family with the surname Ashi was a nobleman. In a sense, Ashina Falcon was a true descendant of the nobility.

Now the Turks and Mongols are basically the same, but they also pay more attention to bloodline.

"Tell me quickly, what kind of aristocratic service it is? I don't even know it." Ashina Falcon urged.

When Ba Ye saw the general's expression, he knew that his plan was working.

In the Timurid Empire, the hierarchy was very obvious, and Timur even divided the citizens into twelve levels.

General Ashina Falcon is undoubtedly one of the top ones.

If an ordinary general like Baye wants to be promoted, he naturally has to take other paths.

Therefore, how to curry favor with Ashina Falcon is the question that Ba Ye has been thinking about recently.

Just the day before yesterday, he suddenly received news from the Qun Ying Chamber of Commerce.

Ba had heard some special rumors about the Qun Ying Chamber of Commerce a long time ago, but he dared to say this only after the person he sent to inquire came back yesterday.

"Those are the personnel provided by the Heroes Chamber of Commerce, which are only provided to the most distinguished nobles. These personnel are proficient in all aspects and are the symbols of great nobles. They have undergone the most classical training."

"They can ensure the health of the nobles, and also make specific clothing and exquisite food. Only by hiring them can you enjoy the special spices provided by the Heroes Chamber of Commerce."

"It is said that in Shenzhou, only the emperors of the former dynasties could enjoy this kind of service."

Ba also began to constantly praise the team service provided by the Qunying Chamber of Commerce.

This is actually a high-end customization plan that Zhu Ying started implementing a long time ago.

Under the name of "Exclusive for the Emperor of the Shenzhou Dynasty", a team of trained nutritionists, doctors, fashion designers, chefs, etiquette masters, etc. are provided to serve the nobles.

A lot of the latest research, such as the best snowflake salt, white snow sugar, various new seasonings, more colorful clothes and so on, a series of high-end supplies.

It will only be provided in large quantities by those who enjoy the service.

Provide perfect care for the daily life of the nobles.

This involves not only financial income and the influence of the Chamber of Commerce, but also intelligence gathering.

After hearing this, Ashina Falcon suddenly felt that the lamb leg in his hand was no longer delicious.

"Where are they and how can they gain recognition from the Heroes Chamber of Commerce?" Ashina Falcon asked urgently.

"Don't worry, General. I have invited their leader over. He should be here soon." Seeing that the general was very interested, Ba Ye hurriedly said.

All the generals present heard this and showed great interest in enjoying this kind of thing.

At the urging of Ashina Falcon, Ba Ye quickly asked someone to bring the person in charge of the Qun Ying Chamber of Commerce over.

A middle-aged Han man soon appeared in the big tent.

He is the head of the Qunying Chamber of Commerce.

After this person came in, he looked at Ashina Falcon who was sitting at the top, and then performed an ancient Turkic noble salute.

When Ashina Falcon saw this, his eyes lit up.

This was an aristocratic etiquette practiced only by the ancient great nobles of the Turkic people. Few outsiders knew about it, and even Ashina Falcon was not very familiar with it.

The aristocratic etiquette of this Han Chinese man was very standard, just like a textbook, and looked very beautiful.

"I heard from my subordinates that your team only serves the great nobles." Ashina Falcon asked.

The middle-aged man smiled and replied: "General, you misunderstood. We only serve the nobles with a long history. Not all nobles can enjoy this."

The man spoke fluent Turkic and there was no communication barrier.

"Then can you show us what it is like?" Ashina Falcon said politely.

Ashina Falcon's tone now seems very polite, but he is actually a very irritable person.

Just like Timur, his favorite thing to do is to massacre the city.

But in front of the Heroes Chamber of Commerce, he showed respect.

The main reason is that the forces behind this chamber of commerce are too many and too complicated.

I don’t know how many nobles enjoyed dividends and provided protection for it.

The middle-aged man looked around and saw that many generals were eating barbecue at the moment.

"We have brought strong liquor that only warriors can enjoy. It is not for sale to the public and will be given to the generals."

"I would like to ask the general to let our chef prepare exquisite barbecue for you generals."

After hearing the middle-aged man's answer, Ashina Falcon naturally had no reason to refuse.

Soon, a chef in white clothes came in.

The chef also wore a hood to cover his mouth and nose.

After the formalities, the chef quickly started grilling the meat with the help of the middle-aged man's translation.

First, there were more than ten kinds of knives, which dazzled many generals.

Then, as if showing off his skills, he pierced, mixed, cut and peeled a leg of lamb, which was a dazzling sight.

As it was roasted, spices were sprinkled on it, and an enticing aroma spread throughout the entire tent.

When the lamb was almost done, the chef took out a bottle of prepared sauce, poured it on the lamb leg, and finally presented it to Ashina Falcon.

Everyone present had never seen such an operation before.

The whole barbecue process is as sacred as a sacrifice and has a strong sense of ritual.

Especially the taste, just smelling it makes people drool.

Add a little salt and some rough spices after roasting and eat it now, it's like a dimensionality reduction attack.

Ashina Falcon took the lamb leg and took a big bite. The unique taste stimulated his taste buds.

It was a delicacy that he had never tasted in his life.

After more than ten bites, the whole lamb leg was eaten cleanly, and Ashina Falcon even couldn't help sucking the bones.

The smell seemed to have penetrated into the sheep bones, and the generals present were so envious.

At this time, the chef suddenly spoke with a regretful tone.

However, basically no one present could understand Chinese.

The middle-aged man translated: "The chef meant that this leg of lamb severely restricted his performance. The Chamber of Commerce's spices were wasted on this leg of lamb."

"The lamb shanks enjoyed by the nobles should be carefully raised lambs, so that they can be fully integrated into the delicacy."

Although Ashina Falcon and many generals did not understand what was meant, it did not affect their feeling of being awe-inspiring.

Only at this time did they realize what the life of a real noble was like.

What happened next was a natural progression.

However, the price of hiring the entire team still made Ashina Falcon feel painful.

Suddenly, Ashina Falcon asked, "I wonder if your Qun Ying Chamber of Commerce has provided such a service to our Khan."

The middle-aged man said with great regret: "No, the Great Khan's status is naturally the most noble, but we are just a chamber of commerce and do not have the qualifications to contact the Great Khan."

"If the general can recommend us to the Khan, we will be very grateful. It will be a great honor for our Heroes Chamber of Commerce."

Upon hearing this, Ashina Falcon couldn't help but ask, "Then what benefits can I get?"

The middle-aged man immediately stated: "If the general can introduce us to the Khan, we will provide you with all the services for free."

When Ashina Falcon heard this, he suddenly became excited.

The generals in the audience were full of envy.

The introducer, Ba Ye, felt as if he had seen a promotion in the future.

Perhaps even Zhu Ying did not expect that his Qun Ying Chamber of Commerce could enter Timur's power center so easily.

At this moment, Zhu Ying had already begun preparing to return to Beijing.
