Chapter 923 The good times don't last long!
Jiangxia City
This is a city with a very good location.
Here, the waterways are extremely developed and extend in all directions.
Through the waterway of Jiangxia City, you can go to Jingzhou on the top, you can enter Cao Cao's territory and Sun Quan's contribution on the left, and you can enter Liu Bei's territory and Hanzhong area on the right.
Through the Yangtze River Basin, this waterway basically extends in all directions, and can reach any developed city in the Central Plains.
This time, Sun Quan and Liu Bei cooperated and set the main trading location in Jiangxia City.
According to the agreement between Sun Quan and Liu Bei, merchants from Sun Quan and Liu Bei can directly enter Jiangxia for trade.
In order to adapt to the economic development, Liu Bei and Sun Quan established the first foreign trade transaction city in Jiangxia City, where all foreign trade transactions can be completed conveniently.
In order to promote the development of Jiangxia Foreign Trade City, Sun Quan and Liu Bei directly established a set of review system in Jiangxia, and all procedures can be reviewed in Jiangxia.
It is precisely because of this that Jiangxia City has also rapidly entered a stage of rapid development.
Especially when Sun Quan and Liu Bei monopolized all the materials in the south, such as tea, silk, cloth and porcelain, etc., basically came from the south.
This directly choked the neck of the economy and monopolized raw materials. In order to develop, those merchants had to choose to relocate to the territories of Sun Quan and Liu Bei for development.
Businessmen are looking for profit, for the sake of the family, they have no choice.
During this period of time, Jiangxia City's economy showed a thriving scene. Countless merchants settled in, making the already lively Jiangxia City even more prosperous.
This city has a faint tendency to become the largest economic city in the south.
Given time, this day will come.
This is the perception of many people.
"Brother Xuande, I never thought that Kong Ming's suggestion would be so mysterious!"
"With this ingenious strategy, why worry about our Jiangdong being unhappy!"
"Of course, brother Xuande can also develop more rapidly. In the future, as long as we work closely together, we will definitely suppress Jiang Chen's arrogance!"
On this day, Sun Quan and Liu Bei were drinking in the palace in Jiangxia City.
Jiangxia was originally a prosperous water city, and it was not surprising that Sun Quan built a palace here as the main stop of water transport in the past.
When fighting Cao Cao in Chibi before, Sun Quan would sometimes live in Jiangxia's palace, wanting to know the development of the battle situation as soon as possible.
"Brother Zhongmou is right!"
"The resources in the south are all in your hands!"
"As long as our cooperation is not broken, the world's economy depends on us!"
Liu Bei stroked his beard and nodded with satisfaction.
During this period of time, their life was very nourishing, and they were no longer as stretched as they were before.
In order to better monopolize resources in their own hands, countless big businessmen threw themselves into their arms and sent them a lot of wealth.
Regarding these, Liu Bei and Sun Quan were not polite, they all waved their hands and accepted them all.
As for whether the work can be done, it's none of their business. It's all about bidding. If you give a gift, you will be given a certain discount. If you don't give it, you won't be able to enter the bidding venue.
In order to get a chance, these businessmen had to satisfy the appetite of Sun Quan and Liu Bei,
Keep giving them gifts, they want to come, and they can always find opportunities to earn back after sending them out,
As long as they can monopolize the materials, they have the final say on the price?
"By the way, those relatively large businessmen have never moved!"
"You said, are they restrained by Jiang Chen?"
Sun Quan took a sip of his wine and asked worriedly.
Although a lot of businessmen have come to Jiangxia recently, and Jiangxia's business has increased dozens of times, Sun Quan and Liu Bei are very satisfied.
But what makes them strange is, why didn't those big financial groups come to them?
Are these conditions of theirs not enough to impress them?
A large consortium is the foundation of social stability. In the eyes of these people, they all hope to have a large consortium to settle in, so that they can have a deeper foundation.
"Even if they don't come, it doesn't matter!"
"We can also support them, and there will always be times when they regret it!"
"They don't choose to come back, and if they want to come back in the future, we don't accept them!"
Liu Bei said coldly.
He is also a little strange, why these big families didn't choose to cooperate with them, isn't their conditions enough to impress them?
Just how much charm does Jiang Chen have to make those big businessmen prefer to give up such a good opportunity?
Although Liu Bei spoke angry words, he was also a little depressed.
Regarding this point, he also asked the military adviser. According to the military adviser Zhuge Liang, those big families would definitely not make a choice so quickly.
They are all smart people, following Jiang Chen, they naturally want to see what Jiang Chen has to do to deal with it.
After all, if they stand in the wrong team this time, if they want to cooperate with Jiang Chen again in the future, they probably won't have a chance.
Jiang Chen would never give chances to those scumbags, as long as you don't follow Jiang Chen firmly all the time, you will lose the qualification to cooperate with Jiang Chen.
It is precisely because of this that those big families dare not act rashly.
Although there are quite a few mid-level families who chose to leave Hanzhong, the big families basically didn't make much movement.
"Could it be that our conditions are not enough to attract them?"
"Do you want to increase the benefits so that those big families can settle in our Jiangxia City as soon as possible!"
"In order not to have long nights and dreams, the longer the time, the more time Jiang Chen will be given to think!"
"This king thinks that if Jiang Chen thinks of a way, it will not be a good thing for us!"
Sun Quan said with some worry.
Hearing Sun Quan's words, Liu Bei was also taken aback for a moment,
Before, Zhuge Liang had persuaded Liu Bei in this way, but Liu Bei, who was in the temporary upper hand, ignored it at all.
He felt that those big aristocratic families left him before, but this time, he must let them beg him.
What I didn't expect was that Sun Quan had the same idea as Zhuge Liang.
"Since Brother Zhongmou thinks it is necessary!"
"Then do it according to Brother Zhongmou's wishes. After all, after a long time, it is indeed easy to change!"
"Then Jiang Chen is famous for being cunning, so don't be careless!"
Liu Bei suppressed the reluctance in his heart, and squeezed out a smile on his face.
Even Sun Quan was aware of it, which shows that this matter has indeed reached the point where it has to be done. Liu Bei also knows the depth, and he feels that Zhuge Liang may be right.
It seems that it is temporarily unfeasible for him to ask those aristocratic families to come to him.
