My family has been wielding knives for generations, but now it's my turn to wield a pen!

"Young Master Jiang, this is absolutely unacceptable!"

After Xie Qiulai came to his senses, he immediately became anxious and tried to stop Jiang Xiaobai.

That's right, this main seat belongs to their young prince.

If the young prince comes over later and sees Jiang Xiaobai sitting here, the consequences are predictable.

But he can't bear that responsibility!

"I am, after all, the heir apparent of the Duke of Zhenguo!"

Jiang Xiaobai looked at the impatient Xie Qiulai and gave a light snort, saying, "It's just temporarily taking over as president, what's wrong with that!"

"Can……"

"No buts, let's leave it at that!"

Jiang Xiaobai didn't give Xie Qiulai a chance to speak further, waving his hand and saying, "I've made the decision for your young prince!"

"The position of chairman, well, I'll just happily... temporarily take over!"

"..."

Xie Qiulai stood there dumbfounded, his mouth agape.

Yes, he'd seen shameless people before, but he'd never seen anyone so utterly shameless!

How thick-skinned must this guy be to say such shameless things?

But Jiang Xiaobai was already sitting there, and even if Xie Qiulai wanted to kick him down, he didn't dare to make a move. He could only stand there, his forehead covered in cold sweat.

The eight major merchants, the customers present, and even the middle-aged woman all glanced at Jiang Xiaobai in surprise.

This young master of the Jiang family is quite bold.

"Shameless scoundrel, utterly shameless scoundrel!!"

Helian Zhaoyue looked at Jiang Xiaobai, gritting her teeth, her eyes filled with anger.

That bastard never shows any courtesy wherever he goes.

This is true both in the imperial court and outside the court.

Now that they've arrived at Yipinlou, they even dare to occupy the young prince's main seat like this.

Teng Zixiu's expression was equally unpleasant.

But undeniably, sometimes when facing Jiang Xiaobai, you really have no temper at all.

The eldest princess stood behind Jiang Xiaobai and smiled slightly upon seeing this scene.

Although Jiang Xiaobai is indeed quite annoying at this point, he is also incredibly funny at times.

Moreover, Jiang Xiaobai never does things according to common sense, always doing things in ways that are unexpected.

Without a doubt, the time she spent by Jiang Xiaobai's side was also the time when she laughed the most.

"that……"

Jiang Xiaobai noticed the strange gazes below, but didn't pay any attention to them, and cleared his throat.

"Since... I, the young master, am temporarily assuming the role of guild leader, let me announce something first!"

As he spoke, Jiang Xiaobai's expression turned serious: "I've decided to fully distribute the Zhenguo Duke's wines throughout the Great Hua Kingdom!"

"Please support your eight major trading companies!"

Jiang Xiaobai's gaze swept over the crowd below, and finally he snorted, "Anyone who doesn't support me... hmph, they can forget about doing business with my Jing Merchants again!"

After these words were spoken, the already quiet lobby became even quieter.

"Shameless! Utterly shameless!"

Helian Zhaoyue listened, trembling with rage, her delicate hands clenching tightly: "I want to kill this bastard!!"

This guy is clearly planning to cheat.

After taking the seat of honor, he immediately forced the eight major merchants to provide him with drinks.

Shameless!

"Princess, rest assured!"

Although Teng Zixiu was also annoyed, she remained calm. After letting out a soft snort, she lowered her voice and said, "He keeps saying he's temporarily taking over as chairman, but if no one believes him, then it's meaningless!"

That's right, no matter how much Jiang Xiaobai talks now, what can he do?

Which Beijing businessman would listen to him?

Of the eight major trading companies, who would be convinced?

This isn't something Jiang Xiaobai can decide simply by talking.

Moreover, the business owners who came this time were all shrewd individuals who had been navigating the business world for many years.

Jiang Xiaobai's idea of ​​using just his words to get these people to cooperate and help the Duke of Zhenguo's mansion distribute its wine throughout the entire Great Hua is nothing short of a pipe dream.

The fact that no one echoed this point is enough to show that.

According to his speculation, whether it was the eight major merchants or the other merchants, they all just regarded Jiang Xiaobai as a joke.

So now they don't have to do anything, they can just sit here and enjoy the show.

Hearing Teng Zixiu's words, Helian Zhaoyue's expression softened slightly.

That's right, none of the eight major merchants paid any attention to Jiang Xiaobai.

But seeing Jiang Xiaobai sitting in the main seat, looking like he had the final say, she still felt unhappy.

Seeing that no one was paying attention, Jiang Xiaobai wasn't worried. Instead, a smile appeared on his face: "Oh, right!"

"Besides alcohol, I also sell perfumes!"

Perfume balm?

Upon hearing these two words, the managers of the businesses below finally reacted.

Jiang Xiaobai, seeing this, chuckled and continued, "My goal is simple: to squeeze out the young prince's current perfume business!"

With that, Jiang Xiaobai cupped his hands in a respectful gesture towards the crowd: "With everyone's cooperation, I believe we should be able to accomplish it in no time!"

After Jiang Xiaobai finished speaking, someone finally spoke up.

An elderly shopkeeper chuckled softly, looked at Jiang Xiaobai, and said, "Young Master, you don't understand business!"

"Heh, things in business aren't as simple as you think!"

As the old man spoke, he stroked his beard and said, "The perfume business is the young prince's trump card, and it sells extremely well, almost everywhere in the Great Hua!"

"This isn't something that can be eliminated with just a word from the young master!"

At this point, the old man glanced at where Jiang Xiaobai was sitting and continued, "Also, young master, you should come down quickly!"

"If we wait for the young prince to arrive and see you sitting here, it might end up looking bad for everyone!"

"That's right!"

At this moment, another middle-aged man spoke up, giving Jiang Xiaobai a cold look and saying, "That main seat isn't for just anyone!"

As the two spoke one after the other, the other business owners, though silent, clearly looked at Jiang Xiaobai with disapproval.

The middle-aged woman, who was the owner of the First Money Shop, also frowned.

But she eventually sat there calmly, without saying a word.

Upon seeing this scene, Teng Zixiu couldn't help but sneer.

Sure enough, it was exactly as he had guessed.

Jiang Xiaobai's attempt to force his way into the main position is nothing more than bringing shame upon himself.

Helian Zhaoyue looked at Jiang Xiaobai and also gave a soft snort.

Let's see how this bastard can continue now.

Facing the gazes of the crowd, Jiang Xiaobai remained unperturbed. With a slight narrowing of his eyes, he slowly said, "I truly am not good at business!"

At this point, Jiang Xiaobai paused slightly before continuing, "But I also understand one thing."

"Good products will always find a place to sell!"

After speaking, Jiang Xiaobai's gaze swept over the heads of the eight major merchant houses present, and he said calmly, "Don't say that I, the young master, didn't give you a chance!"

"Those who shout 'I support you' first will be given priority in distributing my perfume!"

"And those who follow can only queue up in order!"

"After all, my perfume balm will definitely be extremely sought after..."

Jiang Xiaobai paused, his smile deepening, "If everyone's already scrambling for it, and you try to make your move then, it'll be too late!!"
