Zhang Tie stepped off the airship and looked at the surrounding environment. The size of this airship take-off and landing base was not very large. It was a bit like a private airship base...
The outside of the airship base is surrounded by green trees, a field of blooming mountain flowers, and full of spring. But inside the airship take-off and landing base, just in the distance, several exquisite buildings and yards are looming in the shade of the trees.
This is outside the city, not inside the city.
A black car was already waiting at the airship hatch, where the driver and a round-faced middle-aged man were standing there waiting.
"Elder Mu Shen, I am the shopkeeper of the Yingzhou branch of the Golden Crow Merchant Group. My name is Zhang Cheng!"
Before Zhang Tie could speak, the round-faced middle-aged man took the initiative to introduce him.
Zhang Tie nodded. He had never seen this person before, but since his surname was Zhang and he could hold the position of the shopkeeper of Yizhou in the Jinwu Merchant Group, this person should most likely be from Huaiyuantang.
Regardless of whether it is feudal or conservative, the facts of nearly a thousand years from the Great Cataclysm to the present have proven that at any time, people from the same family and with blood relationships are much more reliable than outsiders. Therefore, in many key positions, Not only the Golden Crow Merchant Group, but also the entire wealthy families in Taixia use their own people. So-called professional managers also have their place, but most of them are only for small business groups that have just started. Compared with large-scale families and large business groups, such families themselves will cultivate a large number of professional shopkeepers (professional managers). Managers), the professional shopkeepers trained by these families have high or low abilities. Those with high abilities will naturally move up. Those with low abilities will not waste it.
Judging from the shrewd and versatile look in Zhang Cheng's eyes, he must be a professional shopkeeper trained by his family.
"Where is this?"
"This is the branch of the Golden Crow Merchant Group outside Yingzhou City. The hotel has been arranged. Elder Mu Shen is tired from traveling and traveling. I will take a rest today. I will go to Fan's house tonight to send Elder Mu Shen's greetings and tell him When they arrive, let the Fan family prepare, and Elder Mu Shen can visit the Fan family tomorrow!" Zhang Cheng said two simple and concise sentences. Zhang Tie's itinerary and details in Yingzhou have been arranged.
Zhang Tie said nothing and walked to the car. Zhang Tie, the uniformed driver, opened the door. Zhang Tie sat in the back seat of the car, while Zhang Cheng and the driver sat in the front.
The car moved slightly and drove directly out of the airship base...
The road outside the Jinwu Merchant Group branch is wide and flat. There are green belts in the middle and on both sides of the two-way six-lane highway. Because it is outside the city, there are not many cars on the road. Outside those green belts, you can also see patches of farmland and villages. Most of the houses are neat and beautiful, and there are many single-family courtyards. From this, Zhang Tie knew. As a Taixia continent, the economic development level and living standards of Yingzhou are much higher than those of Youzhou, which has just been upgraded to an organic state.
Zhang Tie also traveled to many places in the Hawaiian subcontinent, especially after transforming into Gorath. Zhang Tie has almost turned around the Hawaiian subcontinent. According to the person in charge, no place in the entire Hawaiian subcontinent can compare with the appearance of the rural areas and towns outside the city.
It is indeed shocking what a place can achieve after hundreds of years of stability and development. In particular, the Chinese are still a hard-working, intelligent and creative nation, hundreds of years after peace. Many places throughout Taixia and Shangzhou are so prosperous that they have exceeded the imagination limits of many people from the subcontinent.
What Zhang Tie saw in Haozhou when he passed by last month is an example.
"It's nice here!" Sitting in the car, Zhang Tie looked at the scenery outside the window while chatting with Zhang Cheng. To these ordinary people, Zhang Tie never had any airs and would not make people feel any distance. .
"Huaiyuan City is better than here!" Zhang Cheng was sitting in the front passenger seat. Hearing Zhang Tie speak, he turned around politely and sat on the seat with his buttocks sideways to talk to Zhang Tie.
Elder Mu Shen is amiable, but the people below him know how to measure their differences.
"I heard that Huaiyuan City is also a Class A city?"
"Not bad!" At this point, Zhang Cheng's tone became a little proud, "There are 137 Class-A cities in Yingzhou, and Huaiyuan City is one of them. With such a business card and title as Huaiyuan City, these When the Jinwu Business Group is doing business outside, as long as we say that Huaiyuan City and the Jinwu Business Group belong to our Zhang family, many times we can win the trust of others the fastest and solve many troublesome problems at the same time!"
Zhang Cheng's words quietly explained the connotation of "family influence" and "Class A city influence" in Taixia.
If people are accustomed to looking at faces, then in shopping malls, for these large business groups, the city owned by their family is another face.
Hearing what Zhang Cheng said, Zhang Tie suddenly had the idea of visiting Huaiyuantang's Class A city in Yingzhou. It seems that Huaiyuan City is only more than 3,000 kilometers away from Fuhai City. After finishing things in Fuhai City, You can stop by and have a look on your way home, and it won't take long.
Duke Huaiyuan was forced to leave Taixia, but his descendants kept looking for ways to come back every day. Huaiyuan City was the nail that Huaiyuantang drove firmly into Taixia.
"Is the Golden Crow Business Group doing well this year?"
"After the head of the family became the governor of Youzhou, the business of the Jinwu Merchant Group and the Changfeng Merchant Group became much easier!" Zhang Cheng said somewhat implicitly.
This should belong to another business card, but this business card can only be understood but cannot be expressed in words. The so-called business, in addition to making both parties make money, has another biggest function, which is to build relationships. Being able to establish a relationship and cooperate with the family business group of the governor of Yizhou is a big temptation for many business groups in Taixia. With this kind of relationship and influence, even if you are now It’s not needed, but can you guarantee that it won’t be needed in the future? This point has been the same from ancient times to the present, from Taixia to those barren lands or the Western Continent. The background of the ruling class will not be underestimated no matter where it is placed.
Zhang Tie also smiled and said nothing more...
Zhang Tie stopped talking, and Zhang Cheng seemed to want to say something else, but he seemed hesitant to speak.
"What do you want to say?" Zhang Tie asked proactively.
"The Tun Dang has a great influence in Yingzhou. Except for our Huaiyuan City, all the other 136 Class A cities in Yingzhou have established moral societies that have the Tun Dang. Although Fuhai City is not a Class A city, it is There is also a moral society here. There are remote sensing communication links between the moral societies in Tun Dang. The information is very well-informed. Many wealthy families and children of wealthy families in Yingzhou have joined the moral society, and more ordinary people have joined. Many common people often Spontaneously donate money and materials to the Tao Te Society. The Tao Te Club has a very strong foundation from top to bottom in Yingzhou. The festival between Elder Mu Shen and Tun Dang should have been known to the Tao Te Club in Yingzhou for a long time. Some time ago, Youzhou The moral society in the territory was smashed, and the power of the swallowing party was almost wiped out from Youzhou in a short period of time. The moral society in Yingzhou was still excited for a while, and some people were still clamoring to go north. Elder Mu Shen came this time When you go to Yingzhou, you should also be careful about whether the party-devouring backbones in Yingzhou's Moral Society will cause anything!"
Hearing this, Zhang Tie's face became a little serious. To be honest, when he was in Youzhou, he really didn't feel that there was any big deal about the power of the Tun Party and the Moral Society among the people. He didn't expect that when he came to Yingzhou, the situation would be reversed. .
Today's party-eating party is so powerful and deeply rooted in Taixia that it is really frightening.
Zhang Cheng's words gave Zhang Tie a wake-up call and gave Zhang Tie a sudden shock in his heart.
But after thinking about it, Zhang Tie calmed down again. Those guys had just lost a Zhoutian censor in his hands, and he was not an official now. How dare those guys come to trouble him
Then don't blame yourself for being rude.
…
The hotel arranged by the Golden Crow Business Group for Zhang Tie is naturally the best and most upscale in Fuhai City.
The hotel is called Guanlan, located just outside Fuhai City near the seaside. It is surrounded by beautiful scenery and not far from Fuhai City.
In the Hawaiian subcontinent, most of the prosperous places and luxury hotels are in the city, protected by high city walls. In Taixia, I don’t know whether it is out of self-confidence or because it has not been exposed to the baptism of war for hundreds of years. Even in places where city walls cannot protect them, there are still large areas of prosperity. Especially for some cities that are not Class A cities. These cities have not had time to expand and upgrade. The surrounding areas of the city have developed rapidly. In some places, outside the city walls are even more prosperous than inside the city walls.
The cost of bringing these places under the protection of the city wall is prohibitively high, and the planning and construction of the city are a huge problem. Over time, it will be up to him.
Zhang Tie's room is on a small artificial hillside of the Guanlan Hotel. It is the hotel's Tianzi No. 7 suite—the Tianzihao room in Taixia Hotel, which is somewhat equivalent to the presidential suite in other places—Zhang Tie's room has an area of more than 3,000 square meters. Square meters, the room is fully equipped with all facilities and functions, and the furnishings inside are also extremely luxurious. There are three swimming pools in this room, two of which are outdoor. On the balcony and half slope, you can see the sea view. There is also an indoor one, connected to the master bedroom.
The price of such a room per day is 24 gold coins. This price is naturally extremely expensive for ordinary people, but for the Golden Crow Business Group and Zhang Tie, they don't feel much.
Zhang Tie actually didn't have high requirements for things like food and clothing, as long as it was passable, but Zhang Tie liked the sea view and surrounding environment of this hotel, so he stayed here.
Zhang Cheng also arranged for a special car and two business escorts to listen to Zhang Tie's call at the hotel. After Zhang Tie settled in, he took a name card and went to Fuhai City according to etiquette to deliver it. To the Fan family…
Almost as soon as Zhang Cheng left, an uninvited guest arrived... ()
