Chapter 437: Guild Meeting

Wei Youqing's expression was grim, and he said, "Manager Rui, this charter was not set by me. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info The country has its own laws, and the family has its own rules. This is the rule of the Tea Merchants Association, and if you don't want to accept it, you can not join the Tea Merchants Association. But there is one thing, although the tea purchase in Chudi is liberalized, not everyone can do it. ”

Rui Yiming nodded and said, "Okay, that makes sense." Let's go to Ruoshui, list these rules, and make it clear that the Tea Merchants Association will voluntarily join, and it will be a foregone conclusion before the purchase of spring tea in the next few days, and we can't miss the right thing. ”

The hall of the Tea Merchants Association is located on the second floor of the street facing the center of Daozhou City, a Zhangjia family. The building is very wide and occupies almost half of the street. There are courtyards in the front and back of the building, and the road in front is wide, and the trees are straight, so you can park your carriages and goods. The backyard is a rockery pavilion, a small bridge and flowing water, and there are also one or two small bamboo houses dotted in between, which can be used for people and for a secret rest.

Zhang Ruoshui wrote the constitution of the Tea Merchants Association in neat block letters, all over a white silk cloth, and the inscription had the official seal of the Chen Wangfu and the eye-catching private seal of Li Chengyu.

It is these two large red seals that mean that every word on this white silk cloth is an unquestionable law. The black and white words were placed there, and the oppressive tea plantation owners present were cautious in their words and deeds, and no one dared to speak first.

It seems that there is nothing to say, in the past, it was the time when the tea plantation owners' guild and the government competed for the purchase price of tea, but now it is their own money to buy their own tea, and then sell it for export, what else is there to say at this time?

No one dared to easily propose not to join the Tea Merchants Guild. Now the situation is obvious, the purchase price of tea is in the hands of the Tea Merchants Association, and only the Tea Merchants Association can buy tea. If anyone does not join the Tea Merchants Association, if the purchase price is lowered, it doesn't matter who joins the Tea Merchants Association, and those who do not join will not make a profit from selling tea, and it is strange if they do not lose money.

Thinking of this, all the people made a score in their hearts, but no one spoke, and they all looked at Zhang Ronghua, the father-in-law of King Chen.

Zhang Ronghua smiled and said to Wei Youqing: "Youqing, you are also the owner of the tea garden, you can talk about it." ”

Wei Youqing humbly said: "Leader Zhang, this is something to look down on. It's just that the output of Xiaoke's pearl tea is extremely low, and there must be a large number of tribute tea from Jiejing, and there is not much left. It can't be compared with your strength, but in a small opinion, it's better to take the lead and talk about it. ”

Zhang Ronghua laughed "hehe" and said, "Since you call me Chief Zhang, I am representing the Tea Garden Lords Guild." Then I'll just say a few words of gossip about the Tea Garden Lords' Guild, I don't know if it's okay? ”

Wei Youqing turned his face to Rui Yiming and said with a smile: "Manager Rui, you are not the owner of the tea garden, you have a transcendent status, can you tell me?" ”

Rui Yiming said with a smile: "Okay, the Tea Garden Lords' Guild is the Tea Gardeners' Guild, and the Tea Merchants Guild is the Tea Merchants Guild. ”

Zhang Ronghua said with a smile: "Okay, since Mr. Rui has this sentence, the old man will say a few words." ”

As he spoke, he picked up the teacup and smelled it, nodded with satisfaction, put it to his lips and took a sip, and praised: "This year's new tea is fragrant and lubricated, and it is really drunk when you smell it." ”

Zhang Ronghua put down the teacup and said: "Such good tea leaves are all grown by the tea ladings, and those of us who are tea plantations can't treat them badly." ”

Zhang Ronghua stopped, glanced around, and saw that everyone was listening carefully, so he continued: "Although it seems that we are buying our own goods, the accounts must be clear, and the money that should be paid cannot be defaulted. Tea plantation owners also need to take cash to send the tea dices. ”

This sounds as if Ding is Ding Mao is Mao, but everyone's interests are involved, so everyone agrees. Rui Yiming said with a smile: "Chief Zhang is worthy of being the big brother of the Tea Garden Lords' Guild, and he does things neatly. ”

Rui Yiming said, turned to Zhang Ruoshui and said with a smile: "Ruoshui, although our Tea Merchants Guild has the prince's law there, the details can't let the prince worry about it. Since the Tea Garden Lords' Guild is so popular with all the brothers, why don't you make a detailed rule compared to the Tea Garden Lords' Guild? ”

Zhang Ronghua nodded and said: "Although there are only some small things, since the Chamber of Commerce has been established, these things must be done carefully, so that the people who participate in the Chamber of Commerce are satisfied." ”

He turned his head to Zhang Ruoshui and said, "Manager Rui sent you this errand, you have to do it well." If you don't understand, you can learn from Deacon Cai in the Tea Garden Owners' Association. ”

Zhang Ruoshui bowed down and said: "Yes, if Ruoshui receives the order, I will go to Deacon Cai and draw up a first draft for all the uncles to review." ”

After Zhang Ruoshui finished speaking, he bowed his hand to the surrounding circle and said goodbye, and went out to the tea garden master guild.

Wei Youqing said: "There is one more important matter, but it must be done quickly." Now the outside is not very peaceful, Jiangnan and Huainan all the way, thieves are swarming, the prince has some experience in forming a pearl island caravan because of the young youth, and he specially appointed the young man to form a caravan guard, I don't know what your uncle's idea is? ”

Rui Yiming said with a smile: "Youqing, you only care about running your own errands, have you ever thought that the leader of our Tea Merchants Guild has not been elected yet, and I don't know who is willing to join the Tea Merchants Guild, which uncle do you ask to give you ideas?" ”

Wei Youqing listened, "hehe" smiled and said: "That's right, it's really Youqing's errand, there are a lot of things involved, since we have formed a caravan, we must have weapons, although the prince of Kumon will definitely support it, but it will take time to build." I also want to recruit Ding Yong, each of these Ding Yong needs to be carefully investigated, I can't use the hard-earned money of your uncles and brothers to support the useless idlers, do you think what you said makes sense? ”

Zhang Ronghua looked around with a smile and said: "Wei Gongzi's words are very reasonable, this matter is not well prepared, but it has a lot to do with our net worth, in order for our tea to be turned into money smoothly, everyone reports the number to see how much cash can be taken out, if you can't get the money, you can also use the tea to offset the cash." Due to the urgency of the matter, we are not outsiders, and the purchase price of tea is still based on last year, how about it? ”

When everyone heard this, their faces changed. The so-called last year's price was nothing more than a stopgap measure in wartime. The front was busy fighting, and King Chen did not increase the burden of Chudi, and a large number of heavy grain and grass were transported from Lingnan. The people of Chu were basically not poisoned by the war, so they could not let Lingnan come up with a large amount of money to buy tea.

But no one stood up against Zhang Ronghua, these people all understood that if they did not participate in the Tea Merchants Association, they would not be able to gain a firm foothold in Chudi at all, since they joined the Tea Merchants Association, it did not matter whether the purchase price of tea was high or low, and everyone also understood that this article was only aimed at those who opposed the Tea Merchants Association.

For a while, everyone nodded in agreement, because Zhang Ruoshui had escaped, and Wei Youqing was also the owner of the tea plantation, so Rui Yiming personally took charge of the accounts.
