It was almost noon and lunch was ready. When Huo Chong returned to the conference hall, he saw that the window had been opened. It seemed that the gang of smokers in the house could not stand the rich second-hand smoke.

When I walked into the conference hall, I really smelled a spicy and pungent smell. What was more spicy than this smell was Liu Tianxiang's direct question, "Mr. Huo looks down on us, don't you throw us here to drink?"

Huo Chong was too lazy to have verbal conflicts with these people, "Who still looks down on others in this world? I have prepared a meal. If everyone doesn't dislike it, go to have a meal."

Immediately, other maritime merchants said unhappily: "Mr. Huo, you don't care about it. Do you think we have offended you?"

"This brother's words are unclear. I don't understand the incision at sea. Everyone only uses the incision to speak. I really don't understand. Since no one taught me, I will make something for everyone. When I come here, everyone is a guest. I can't cook anything else, and at least I can prepare meals for everyone."

After saying that, Huo Chong was waiting for these guys with rebellious faces to react. At this time, Huo Chong had already become aware of tearing his face. After looking at Feng Yukuan, Huo Chong actually wanted to say a few more words, although for Feng Yukuan's sake, he would treat these guys with courtesy. If these guys were shameless, there was no reason to continue to spoil them.

Before Huo Chong could speak, Feng Yukuan said, "Mr. Huo is righteous, let us brothers say it's good first. You'll say it all, but you can't say anything. Master Huo, your cook is good, let's go to the table. I can't care whether they eat or not. I'm hungry, I want to eat."

Huo Chong glanced around the others and saw that the people were still rebellious in their faces, but no one publicly expressed their objections. Since the maritime merchants were not as shameless as they were, Huo Chong did not want to tear his face immediately, and turned to Yang Wangfu and said, "Seat."

Yang Wangfu went out with a dark face. Not long after, two rotating tables were carried in first. Then there was a washbasin for each person. Feng Yukuan was the oldest. Huo Chong asked him to wash his hands and sat up, and asked the maritime merchants to sit down. Then he ordered Yang Wangfu to arrange the maritime merchants' accompanying men to sit at another table. Huo Chong himself sat down in the main seat.

The dishes were served one by one, and they were so hot and fragrant. Everyone should be hungry. Huo Chong said, "Brother Feng, you are the oldest here, you can come first with the first chopsticks."

Feng Yukuan was kind and picked up a chopstick first. It was probably because of Shandong people. Although these maritime merchants looked rebellious, at least they knew the rules at the dinner table. As the turntable turned, Feng Yukuan picked up a chopstick in the second dish. The maritime merchants who turned to the first dish moved their chopsticks.

After one by one, Huo Chong was always the last one to eat. Everyone didn't have to get up, they just picked up the dishes in front of them, and they also ate them. When the first round passed, before Huo Chong could speak, Feng Yukuan said, "Brother Huo, your table is made like this, so everyone can eat it at will."

"Of course this is the case. All etiquette has come, so everyone can do it." Huo Chong replied with satisfaction.

When everyone heard this, they took the chopsticks to start. They didn't know if it was because of the easy use of this tool, or because the Shandong brothers adhered to the rules to a little deeper.

Maritime merchants were able to naturally turn the turntable and only hold the dish in front of them. Huo Chong lamented that even if it was formalism and a bit rigid, as long as there was a convenient and easy-to-use tool, it would save a lot of trouble. Tian Laosi said, "Master Huo, it's a big deal to follow the rules when you do things. Why did it happen to us brothers, and something is wrong with you?"

Huo Chong responded decisively with a polite manner, "Blind jb. Why is something wrong with me?"

Tian Laosi immediately criticized Huo Chong's crime, "We can't continue to do it anymore, why do you still have to grab business from us?"

"What do you mean? I don't even have a boat, how can I steal your business!"

During this question-and-answer period, Tian Laosi began to scold Huo Chong. After listening for a while, Huo Chong was amused. He waved his hand and asked Tian Laosi to stop first, "Let me laugh for a while and you will talk! If you catch the talk, I can't listen."

"Are you kidding me?!" Tian Laosi was angry. The other maritime merchants were also angry. Only Feng Yukuan grinned and smiled bitterly. After all, he had worked with Huo Chong for some time. Feng Yukuan's understanding of Huo Chong was far better than that of these maritime merchants.

"I think everyone has a boat to go out to sea, and I want to live and ask you to bring my goods to overseas. Now, you have a breakdown. I don't want to build a boat to go out to sea, nor do I want to steal your boat. I just ask if you can bring my goods. If this is the case, I won't recognize it!"

After hearing what Huo Chong said, the maritime merchants either had a rebellious and disapproving expression or were suspicious. Huo Chong couldn't help but look at Feng Yukuan, thinking that Feng Yukuan would explain Huo Chong's idea to these maritime merchants. However, judging from the maritime merchants' expressions, Feng Yukuan obviously had no such meaning.

Just as he was wondering if Feng Yukuan had done what he thought, he heard Tian Laosi say, "If Mr. Huo wants us to bring goods, we have to take up some of your money. I heard that Mr. Huo's business is not bad. How about it, let your brothers follow Mr. Huo's gangsters?"

Feng Yukuan's face finally became a little serious. It can be seen that Tian Laosi's vague content had already made him feel unhappy. Huo Chong didn't know what Feng Yukuan did, but now it seems that Feng Yukuan doesn't want these maritime merchants to intervene in the agency Huo Chong's business.

Huo Chong couldn't believe these people. He called Yang Wangfu, who was thinking about what he meant by hearing those words, and asked him to obtain platform investment cooperation standards.

Yang Wangfu looked at Huo Chong in confusion, and finally left on order. Huo Chong continued to listen to the sea merchants' mischievousness. When they were tired, Huo Chong asked temporarily: "I always thought that my brothers were transporting goods directly to North Korea and Japan for sale by sea. Why do you think that the brothers can't do this business?"

"Master Huo, haha, who did you hear it from?" Liu Tianxiang asked with a sneer.

"I do business by myself, do I think that's not what business is all about?" Huo Chong is actually sure that he is highly respectful to these maritime merchants. They do not have the ability to complete such commercial channels, and these goods may not even have commercial channels.

After seeing the expressions of the maritime merchants casually, Huo Chong looked at Feng Yukuan specifically. He saw that Feng Yukuan wanted to pretend to be indifferent, but this dodge actually proved something. Feng Yukuan himself did not want others to know the route he was mastering now.

The maritime merchants continued to talk nonsense. Huo Chong quickly heard some clues. It turned out that the maritime business of these goods only covered a certain line, rather than established a channel. For example, Feng Yukuan took over the Spanish businessman Oda Hideyoshi and sold some goods through his ship. At most, he was a second dealer or even a third dealer.

Huo Chong felt helpless. Even the maritime merchants had fallen into depravity. But decades ago, Zheng Chenggong's father Zheng Zhilong was a tiger in Japan to some extent. In Japan, some people even called this hero with the name of pirates. Even the Tokugawa shogunate could not destroy Zheng Zhilong's power in Japan. He was foolish and thought that even if these Shandong maritime merchants did not have the power of Zheng Zhilong back then, they could at least sell goods directly to Japan. Now, it was Huo Chong's own wishful thinking.

He was sighing that Yang Wangfu had already brought the charter. Huo Chong handed the charter to the maritime merchants. The maritime merchants pretended to take it and looked at it for a while, but their expressions betrayed them. Their faces were full of confusion and the irritability caused by the confusion proved that these guys did not have the ability to read modern contracts.

Liu Tianxiang simply said, "Master Huo, what do you want, just say it."

"I want to make money very hard and share it. I write so much, but I don't want to wait until everyone is unhappy before saying anything. Let's talk about it, who doesn't want to earn more here, stand up for me."

Haha, hehe, haha. The maritime merchants express their attitude.

"It's hard to make money, but it's hard to eat shit. A business makes money this year, but maybe it's okay next year, you have to lose money. If you want to make money with me, you either pay or work hard. Finally, you will pay dividends. If you contribute, you will work hard according to the rules I set and pay wages every month. What rules are written clearly here. I know that working like this is not going to work hard, but then we will follow the rules. If something happens, don't make trouble for me. Who should bear the burden? Follow the rules."

After Huo Chong said this, the merchants reluctantly picked up the text again. But after reading it for a while, they couldn't read it anymore. In the end, Tian Laosi couldn't stand the torture of the text. He slapped the text on the table, "Master Huo, just say it. How much money I paid, how much will you give me."

"I don't lend money, how do I know how much I can share? There is a minimum guaranteed dividend here, one hundred cents a year to pay five cents. Those who pay copper coins pay copper coins, and those who pay silver pay silver."

Tian Laosi was furious, "That's the point? I didn't win!"

"If you don't win, you won't win. That kind of thing that doesn't care about anything, that's all." Although it's bargaining, Huo Chong is actually recommending his own financing plan.

But these maritime merchants were all whining, as if they wanted to suppress Huo Chong. Yang Wangfu's face became increasingly ugly.

Huo Chong felt that the situation in front of him reached the limit of Yang Wangfu's patience. If the kid didn't understand what Huo Chong was trying to do, he would be afraid that his natural reaction would be stimulated by the natural reaction of this human being. Huo Chong stopped arguing with the maritime merchants and asked Yang Wangfu to call Sun Bald Brother outside in.

In terms of martial arts, as a guard, Brother Sun is above Yang Wangfu. Huo Chong replaced Brother Sun, first to let Yang Wangfu break out, and secondly, he was worried that if these maritime merchants say the sb words that Huo Chong had to quarrel, Brother Sun would be able to help.

As soon as Brother Sun stood behind Huo Chong, he heard Liu Tianxiang say loudly: "I heard that Mr. Huo is very rich. I didn't expect that Mr. Huo, you are like those rich people. The richer you are, the darker your heart is. I'm leaving!"

Huo Chong watched Liu Tianxiang get up and leave with his entourage. He called his subordinates who had already finished their meal, and Liu Tianxiang really left.

At least this guy is quite true. Huo Chong's evaluation of Liu Tianxiang is not low. He turned to look at the group who did not leave, and Huo Chong asked, "What else do you have to ask if you have?" If these people cannot choose to cooperate readily, Huo Chong will chase people away.

A group of guys who make money entirely by smuggling goods, even if they are not worthless, does not have the value of Huo Chong's continued waste of time on them.

Looking at the greedy guys in his eyes hesitated. Huo Chong remembered the poem the Chinese teacher said when he was in school. I advised God to shake his feet and to bring talents without any restrictions.

The teacher said that the Qing Dynasty dog ​​slave official who wrote this poem lamented that the era had already reached the point where there were no big thieves, and only little thieves were left. The country was really no longer human. So, "reducing talents without any restrictions."
