Chapter 232 Eight Qi Pirates
"The No. [-] Baqi pirate." Shi Liusheng said.

"Amaterasu country?" Zhu Shenglong frowned, "It is said that there are eight leaders of the Baqi pirates, four of them are from Amaterasu country, two from Central Plains, and two from Korea?"

Zhu Shenglong knew a little about these pirates, but not too much.

After all, they wished their family never to go by sea.

"That's right, it is said that there are eight leaders, but in fact it is the four of Amaterasu who have the final say. Their strength and power are not comparable to the last four." Shi Liusheng said.

The blood shark's sphere of influence is roughly the sea area east of Jiangnan Dongjun, so the Shuangjiao's territory is the sea area north of the blood shark, and further north is the Baqi's sphere of influence.

It is close to Koryo and Amaterasu.

"It's no wonder that Zhou's business houses often have northern mink fur, deer antler, ginseng and other valuable goods." Zhu Shenglong said.

"Zhou Fohu has opened up a route to the northeast to buy mink antler and ginseng, but this is on land, and at most some water transportation is added. This is just a cover for him. The real big head comes by sea, and the profit is huge." Shi Liusheng road.

Using the guise of land can deceive many people.

Even if Zhou's house had more goods, everyone could guess that he came from the sea.

But they would not have guessed that Zhou Fohu and Baqi had such a close relationship, and would generally think that Zhou Fohu had given Haikou a large sum of money to buy the way.

When mink fur and antler ginseng arrived in the affluent south of the Yangtze River, its value increased several times or even dozens of times, and the Zhou family naturally made a lot of money.

"From this point of view, we have underestimated the strength of the Zhou family firm." Fang Jing said solemnly.

Shi Liusheng also meant the same thing, the Zhou family business was not as simple as it seemed on the surface.

"Then the risk on our side will be much greater." Liang Jingwei said.

"Don't worry, the Shi Family Company won't expose its strength easily." Wang Xiyue said, "But we also have to prepare for the worst. We have to collect more information about the Shi Family Company in the past few days, and try to understand Zhou's strength. The general financial strength of a business."

"I will try my best here." Shi Liusheng said.

Everyone understands that he wants to borrow the power of the First Prince, and everyone agrees to this.

"They still don't know the bottom line on our side. If they really want to go all out, we will accompany you." Fang Jing said with a smile, "Besides these, the odds on Jingwei's side are one to one, which is not enough. I think There is a way to change the odds into one for two, one for more.”

"They won't adjust the odds easily, right?" Liang Jingwei asked.

"At the beginning, our side is stronger. When they join forces to counterattack, we can show weakness. Then these people in the world should not be optimistic about us or Jingwei anymore. The odds will naturally be high." Fang Jing smiled and said, "In the next few days, everyone has to keep a low profile. When the odds are high, we will buy Jingwei to be on the list. As for the others, we will not bet. We can't invest too much money in it. In case Jingwei's popularity is not enough. Oh, by the way, when we sit in the manor, we have to invite the prefect of Hangzhou, the local famous and the leaders of the well-known sects to be present, and ask them to testify."

"Brother Fang, are you afraid that they won't honor it? We have done this, and they have to invite these people to testify, otherwise it will be difficult to win people's trust." Wang Xiyue asked.

"We have to guard against it." Fang Jing said with a smile, "If they lose, the silver is too much, maybe they don't want to give it. With the witness of so many people, I believe they have to weigh the consequences. Pick."

"It should be. These people will naturally stand on our side when the time comes. They are wrong." Zhu Shenglong laughed.

"Then it's settled." Fang Jing said, "Let's let you release the news. When opening a dealer, it's best to get a few 10 taels of silver ingots. The box must be opened so that people can see our Mingzhou Chamber of Commerce. strength."

"That's a good idea." Shi Liusheng laughed loudly, "No matter what you say, whether it's 10 taels or millions of taels, there is no more impact than 10 taels of white money in front of your eyes."

Zhu Shenglong and Shi Liusheng knew about the fact that Fang's firm sent 10 taels of silver to the Qingshan county government at that time, so those people in the world still wanted to use Fang's firm, which made Fang's firm famous.

Now this time, they hope that the Mingzhou Chamber of Commerce can also spread its reputation.

The two left, and then they had to contact the members of the chamber of commerce immediately, and they had to settle the business.

"Let Zijuan and the others check the Zhou's business name as soon as possible." Fang Jing said to Wang Xiyue, "If necessary, you can ask Huang Zhenjun to contact Haishang to see if they have any secrets about the relationship between Zhou Fohu and Baqi."

"Brother Fang, there is actually an easier way." Liang Jingwei said, "You can find Tingfeng Pavilion."

"Oh, I almost forgot." Fang Jing smiled, "If your identity is restored, you can order Tingfeng Pavilion."

"Brother Fang, it's still early." Liang Jingwei said.

"Just kidding." Fang Jing said, "Not only Tingfeng Pavilion, but Tianzhitang and Tongxiaolou also have to go, spend some money to buy Zhou's business, especially some secrets of Zhoufohu and Baqi. Jingwei , you don’t need to come forward, let the people below do it.”

"Brother Fang, my younger sister should be in charge of these things." Wang Xiyue said.

"Alright." Fang Jing nodded and said, "Xiyue, you have worked hard."

"Little sister is paid." Wang Xiyue said with a grin.

There was a thunder on the ground, and the news that the Mingzhou Chamber of Commerce set up a gambling game quickly spread in Hangzhou Fucheng.

"10 taels of silver are placed in the lobby? Is it real or not?"

"How can it be fake? I just came back from there, and the white silver is blinding my eyes."

"It can't be fake silver, right? Who can put out the 10 taels of silver ingot?"

"You are ignorant, right? There is a precedent for the Fang family business, probably last year. They shipped 10 taels of cash to the county government. Many people in the Jianghu have seen it."

"10 taels of silver is nothing. The Mingzhou Chamber of Commerce has already issued a message. No matter how big the bet is, they will accept it. It is said that they have prepared several million taels of silver. They are not afraid that they will not be able to afford it, and the odds are better than other bets. Much better."

"Then go and have a look."

The principals of several local firms in Hangzhou Prefecture gathered together.

This time, they originally wanted to take advantage of the time to compete for the rankings and set up a gambling game to make a fortune. Each family could earn at least a few 10 taels, which can be described as a no-cost business.

Such a piece of fat must not allow outsiders to get involved.

I didn't expect the Mingzhou Chamber of Commerce to be so shameless. Generally speaking, everyone has a corresponding tacit understanding. Some things are local, and outsiders have to avoid them.

The Mingzhou Chamber of Commerce is aggressive, and it simply doesn't pay attention to local companies.

"Brother Zhou, you have to stand up and negotiate with the Mingzhou Chamber of Commerce. They have broken the rules."

"Yes, how could anyone do such a thing?"

Everyone here is very indignant, the Mingzhou Chamber of Commerce has moved their interests.
