Chapter 164 The Head of the Chamber of Commerce! ! !

evening.

Zhuang Zhou closed the shop early.

Back to the new house, everyone will have a dinner in the new house tonight.

Getting ready to have the first employee reunion dinner.

During this meal, Zhuang Zhou used the wok he brought to cook several specialty dishes.

Braised chicken with mushrooms, braised pork, mapo tofu, fish-flavored shredded pork, scrambled eggs with pepper, twice-cooked pork, fish head and tofu soup.

Finally, we had spicy fish fillets.

Especially sprinkle with sliced ​​dried chilies and Sichuan peppercorns at the end.

Then pour the boiling oil on it.

There was a sizzling sound.

A spicy and spicy smell suddenly rose and filled the air.

Naturally, Ma San and others no longer feel strange.

But for Miss Hongyu, it was simply shocking.

How could she have imagined that Zhuang Zhou could actually cook!

And this table full of dishes looks very appetizing.

Hongyu couldn't help but asked Zhuang Zhou:

"Mr. Zhuang, I never expected that you can actually cook?"

Zhuang Zhou smiled and replied:

"I know a lot of things, you will know later."

After hearing this, Hongyu's cheeks turned red with embarrassment.

The atmosphere at the reunion dinner that night was very harmonious.

There were constant laughter and laughter, and the new house was finally full of life.

After meal.

Ma Xiaoling and Xiaoyu went to the kitchen to wash dishes.

Fat Tiger and Thin Monkey returned to the grocery store.

Because there is a party tonight.

Zhuang Zhou left Ma San behind and planned to take him to the meeting later.

"Mr. Zhuang, I always feel that I shouldn't go to this banquet tonight?"

"Oh, what's wrong?"

Ma Sandao:

"Mr. Zhuang, think about it!

Now that Zhao Qing is still in prison, his father will definitely use various connections to get him out.

So I am holding this banquet now, most likely because I want to ask you for mercy. "

Upon hearing this, Zhuang Zhou also felt that what Ma San said was somewhat reasonable.

At this time, Miss Hongyu was making a pot of tea for Zhuang Zhou.

I just happened to hear the two of them talking.

So he also told the news he heard before:

"Mr. Zhuang, when I was in Fengyiyuan a few days ago, I heard Cui Yu mention that all the merchants in Kyoto have united to deal with you, saying they want to drive you out of Chang'an City."

"Oh? Is there such a thing?"

"Yes, now Zhuangji Grocery Store has completely emerged in Chang'an. For the merchants in Kyoto, it naturally offends their interests."

When Zhuang Zhou heard this, his expression became serious.

This made him somewhat unexpected.

I originally thought that there would be three or two families that would oppose me.

But now it seems.

Zhao Dewang is preparing to mobilize a group of businessmen to deal with him.

Now the grocery store has just started to make some progress in Chang'an City, but it has encountered such a crisis.

But Zhuang Zhou had already expected it.

Businessmen naturally put profits first.

Now that he is making a lot of money, other businessmen naturally want a piece of the pie.

Zhuang Zhou thought about it and realized that he had already rejected Zhao Dewang once last time.

If you refuse again.

Doesn't that mean that you are afraid of him?

"Since they want to invite me to join the club, I naturally have to go and see what their plans are. Ma San, you go with me tonight."

Ma San nodded in agreement, feeling trust in Zhuang Zhou in his heart.

Then, Zhuang Zhou turned to Hong Yu and said:

"Miss Hongyu, look after your home. Let's have a drink when you come back in the evening. I have good wine!"

Zhuang Zhou remembered that there was also a bottle of red wine.

You can have a nice drink tonight and let Hongyu experience the charm of red wine.

Anyway, I’ll bring the clothes back tomorrow and I’ll pick up some next time.

Hong Yufu bowed, thinking that Zhuang Zhou wanted it again.

"Yes, I will definitely wait for you at home."

It was just nightfall.

Zhuang Zhou then took Ma San to the banquet site.

Ma San struggled with this for a long time.

I was afraid of being bitten by this iron donkey.

Especially now that it's night time.

The lights were turned on in front of the motorcycle.

It makes the motorcycle look a lot weirder.

It's almost night now.

There were very few pedestrians on the street and it was deserted.

Otherwise, you will be scared to death.

With Masan leading the way, the motorcycle soon stopped at a tall and gorgeous archway.

The archway is already covered with red lanterns.

The boys who heard strange noises from a distance were frightened.

They all stared blankly at this iron donkey.

Until Zhuang Zhou turned off his motorcycle and led Ma San out of the car.

Only then did the boys see clearly that they were two people.

And he is the guest specially invited by member Zhao tonight.

He hurriedly greeted him and introduced Zhuang Zhou into the hall.

At the banquet.

The merchants were all dressed up brightly, but they could not hide the worry on their faces.

Zhao Qing's father, Zhao Dewang, was sitting in the main seat with a gloomy face.

In his opinion.

Zhuang Zhou will definitely miss his appointment again tonight.

But at this moment, a boy ran in first and reported:

"Exceptor Zhao, Boss Zhuang's family is here!"

"Oh! Please!"

After Zhuang Zhou entered the venue, Zhao Dewang immediately greeted him:

"Okay! Mr. Zhuang, you are finally here, come on, come on, take a seat quickly."

Zhao Dewang greeted Zhuang Zhou politely, but his eyes showed disdain.

Or it was jealousy towards Zhuang Zhou.

Zhuang Zhou was of course clear in his heart.

But since you didn't mention why you came here tonight, I don't bother to reveal it.

The banquet went very smoothly, and everyone drank a lot of wine.

Until Zhao Dewang suddenly brought up the matter of Zhao Qing:

"Master Zhuang, my son was blind and offended you. I am here to apologize to you on his behalf."

That's what he said, but Zhao Dewang said nothing.

There is absolutely no sincerity in apologizing!

Zhuang Zhou responded and said politely:

"Harm! It's all just a misunderstanding. Is Zhao Qing okay now?!"

You still don’t know how my son is doing?

Zhao Dewang cursed in his heart, but he restrained himself from getting angry.

"The Zhuang family didn't know something. That Chen Mu actually sent my son to the Yamen to be punished. He is now locked up in Jingzhao Mansion Prison."

He said with a heavy sigh:

"Hey! I know that the Zhuangdong family has great magical powers. My Qing'er is in prison now. I hope you can come to rescue me. From now on, when the Zhuangdong family does business in Kyoto, I, on behalf of all the merchants in Kyoto, will definitely support it vigorously."

Zhao Dewang spoke sincerely, but Zhuang Zhou heard the threat in his tone.

Do you mean that if I don’t help you, you will oppose me on behalf of all the merchants in Kyoto?

Zhuang Zhou smiled and said:

"Don't worry, Member Zhao. Since the matter between Zhao Qing and I is a misunderstanding, I will naturally do my best.

But, I have a condition. "

"Oh, Mr. Zhuang, please tell me."

Zhuang Zhou nodded:

"That's why I want to join the trading company and compete for the top spot in the next trading company."

When Zhao Dewang heard this, his expression changed.

He didn't expect Zhuang Zhou to dare to speak so loudly.

Other merchants were also shocked.

I didn't expect that this young master would dare to propose such a condition on such an occasion.

Zhao Dewang hesitated for a moment, and then said:

“Boss Zhuang’s competition for the top spot in the trading company is not something you can do just by participating, it requires everyone’s unanimous consent.

So with your conditions, I’m afraid it will take some time! "

Zhuang Zhou smiled and said:

"I know it will take time, but I believe that as long as Zhao Qing's matter is resolved, it shouldn't be a problem."

Zhao Dewang's eyes widened.

Looking at the young Zhuang Zhou in front of him, he couldn't help but feel a little uneasy.

He knew that Zhuang Zhou's move was undoubtedly to control Kyoto's commercial power.

However, he had to admit that he really admired Zhuang Zhou's strength and courage.

"Okay, Mr. Zhuang, since you said so, I, Zhao Dewang, have no reason not to agree.

However, this matter still requires the consent of everyone. "

"Then it depends on your choice, Mr. Zhao."

Zhuang Zhou was not angry either. He paused and said calmly:

"I, Zhuang Zhou, keep my word. As long as you agree to my conditions, I will do my best to rescue Zhao Qing."

A trace of hesitation flashed in Zhao Dewang's eyes:

"I still need to think about this matter carefully before talking about it."

"Okay! Your son is still in prison anyway, so just think about it slowly!"
