Vol 2 Chapter 1811: Fundraising Conference! (on)

"Sun catching head, what are you guys...?"

The arrival of the county government's nearly hundred government officials naturally attracted the attention of Lin Wenyuan, the "host" of this fundraising meeting. He hurried forward and looked at Sun Butou.

Lantian County is Li Zexuan’s fief, and today’s fundraising meeting’s "host" is the Yanhuang Chamber of Commerce, and the sponsor behind the scenes is Li Zexuan, so Lin Wenyuan will naturally not mistakenly think that so many people with Sun Tautou are here to smash the place, but he I didn't expect that Lantian County, as a government official, would actually send people here today. After all, the fundraising conference mainly invited businessmen!

"Master Lin, Sun is ordered by the county magistrate to bring people to maintain law and order to ensure that the fundraising meeting is held smoothly. Ahem! There are more people here, so please don't be offended by Master Lin!"

Sun Tautou politely hugged Lin Wenyuan and said.

Hearing this, Lin Wenyuan hurriedly said: "Where is Sun Catcher? This fundraising meeting involves a lot of money. The county government can send people to it. Naturally, Lin can't ask for it. Why can't you be surprised? I will invite Sun Cattou to come in and use tea! "

As a businessman, if Lin Wenyuan stayed before, how often would he not bow his head and lower his breath in front of officials? Now that he has become a major member of the Yanhuang Chamber of Commerce and is protected by Li Zexuan, his waist can't help but straighten up. But this is the case, he does not dare to make any conceited, arrogant and domineering actions, because he knows who has given him everything he has now. He now deals with people in the officialdom, adhering to the principle of "not humble or overbearing, and people respect him." "He respects others" principle! It will neither humiliate the Yanhuang Chamber of Commerce, nor cause trouble for the Yanhuang Chamber of Commerce for no reason!

"Hehe! Master Lin, you don't have to be polite, Sun is just a rough man. It is Sun's responsibility to protect this Dragon Inn today. You don't have to worry about Sun! The county magistrate will come in person later!"

Sun Tautou smiled and hugged a fist towards Lin Wenyuan, said.

Hearing this, Lin Wenyuan was slightly taken aback. He did not expect that the county government not only sent a catcher to maintain law and order, but later even the county magistrate He would come in person. This was a fundraising meeting initiated by the Yanhuang Chamber of Commerce for businessmen. He Isn’t the county magistrate here not afraid of being gossiped about his identity?

Even though he thought so in his heart, Lin Wenyuan said calmly and respectfully: "Sun catching his head is really fulfilling his duty, then Lin will go to entertain the guests, and when the county magistrate arrives, Lin will definitely meet him personally~ !"

At this moment, there was a burst of exclamation from the crowd, and then the crowd onlookers voluntarily gave way to a road, and saw an official wearing a purple robe and a golden belt with his waist. Official, come to the Longmen Inn!

Looking at the color of the official uniform of the leader, it turned out to be an official of Grade 3 or higher!

"Oh~! Where is the official from?"

"It looks like it's from Chang'an!"

"Huh? Isn't this Xiao Shangshu from the Ministry of Households?"

"What is Xiao Ge doing here?"

The people onlookers whispered in a whisper.

It's not that they haven't seen a high official. Even the emperor has been to Lantian County. It is only a third-rank or higher official, all of whom are important court officials. Now that the fundraising meeting is about to be held, a third-rank official suddenly came here, and everyone will inevitably come here. Can't help whispering!

Lin Wenyuan was shocked, and hurriedly greeted the members of the Yanhuang Chamber of Commerce who were present today, bowed and said: "Lin Wenyuan of the Yanhuang Chamber of Commerce, I have seen Xiao Shangshu~!"

"Cao Wendong (Feng Zhihua, Zheng Qianjun, Liao Xifan) of the Yanhuang Chamber of Commerce, met Xiao Shangshu~!"

"You don't have to be polite!"

Xiao Yu paused and waved his hands to everyone. Then he looked at Lin Wenyuan and said: "The official is hereby ordered to take over the money from the fundraising meeting. Once the fundraising meeting is over, the household department will register all the money. And then shipped back to Chang'an. Boss Lin, when will this fundraising meeting begin?"

Li Er did let people from the Ministry of Households come over to receive the donations from the fundraising meeting, but Li Er did not say to let Xiao Yu come here in person. In fact, for this kind of thing, Xiao Yu only needs to send a few "brothers" to him. But this old man had previously made a bet with Li Er. The bet was whether this fundraising meeting could raise 150,000 troops. Naturally, he wanted to come and see in person!

The businessman pays much attention to profit, and Xiao Yu still does not think that those merchants will generously donate to the court, because this matter does not benefit them at all. At this moment, he is already thinking about the court if the fundraising conference does not raise enough military funds. Where did I get this money? After all, Li Er's edicts have been sent to all states and counties, and elite soldiers from the state capitals are gathering in Chang'an. It is an indisputable fact that the army of the Northern Expedition has increased by 150,000. He is a householder. The book of the Ministry, naturally, I have to think of ways to raise military funds!

Little did Old Man Xiao know that calling on merchants to raise military funds for the country was only Li Zexuan’s first method. Even if it failed, Li Zexuan would recruit 10,000 people to make up for it, such as borrowing from the court through the Yanhuang Bank, or the court to the civilians. Issue war bonds, once the war is won, the money will be returned to the people with interest and so on.

Every last move can easily solve the current dilemma of the imperial court. The reason why Li Zexuan prioritized the use of fundraising was that he wanted to use this opportunity to arouse the patriotism of the people of the Tang Dynasty for the next The national war between the Tang Dynasty and the Turks is creating momentum!

Historical experience tells us that only by mobilizing the masses of the people extensively and winning the support of all people, can war be invincible!

At this time, Lin Wenyuan looked at the sundial in front of the Longmen Inn. It was almost three quarters away from the previous appointment, but he was not good for Xiao Yu, the Shangshu of the Household Department, to stand outside and wait. After all, Xiao Yu had gone through several dynasties. The veteran, his position in the court is light, so he said: "The fundraising meeting will begin soon, Xiao Shangshu, please come in!"

After all, he ordered to the left and right: "Open the door~! Please take your seats~!"

"Yes! Master!"

The Lin family’s little girl bowed and led his orders, and hurried to open the door of the inn. Lin Wenyuan and others invited Xiao Yu to enter first. Xiao Yu did not refuse. When he entered the lobby on the first floor of the inn, Xiao Yu couldn’t help but exclaimed: "Lin Boss, this inn is really magnificent, and it's not inferior to Yanhuang Academy. It's generous! It's worthy of being the first inn in Lantian County!"

Busy with business affairs like Xiao Yu, he naturally didn't have time to visit this Longmen Inn in Lantian County on weekdays. For Longmen Inn, he heard its name but never saw him. When he first saw it today, he naturally couldn't help but marvel at it again and again!

"Xiao Shang has a good reputation, how can this inn compare with the sacred places of the literary world like Yanhuang Academy? Please come to your seat~!"

While they were speaking, everyone had already arrived in the hall, and Lin Wenyuan pointed to the top position and invited Xiao Yu.

Here is Xiao Yu's highest status, and there is nothing wrong with inviting him to the table!

Xiao Yu shook his head and said, "This official is just watching. Boss Lin has to host this fundraising meeting. How can this official take the lead?"

After all, he took a few small officials from the household department and walked towards the first row on the left.

Upon seeing this, Lin Wenyuan couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief. Xiao Yu's arrival caught him off guard. If the other party wanted to intervene in the fundraising meeting, he really had no good countermeasures. After all, Li Zexuan was not here. He was a merchant in his district, how to go with Xiao Yu. Such a court official against?

At this time, Xiao Yu let the first seat open and took the initiative to sit down, undoubtedly expressing his attitude to Lin Wenyuan. In this fundraising meeting, Xiao Yu was only responsible for "counting money" and would not interfere with the process!

"Go get some fruit refreshments and send them to Xiao Shangshu! Oh, go and take out the fairy tea that the old man has collected, and make a pot of Xiao Shangshu~!"

Lin Wenyuan gave orders to the servant next to him.

"Yes! Master!"

The young man took the order and left.

At this time, outside the inn, there are already long tables on both sides. Merchants who come to participate in the fundraising meeting must "sign in" here and indicate the amount of donation to be made by the way. Of course, in order to verify the identity, the participants need to be shown. Name the store deed of the next store. After everything is ready, the "staff" will return to the other party a rectangular sign with the number of donations, the donor and the representative store, so that you can enter.

This is mainly to improve the efficiency of the fundraising meeting, and although the area of ​​the lobby on the first floor of Longmen Inn is large, after all, the capacity is limited, and it is impossible for all the people outside to come in.

Not long after the freshman, the county magistrate He of Lantian County also came with a group of county officials. With Xiao Yu, a third-ranking member in front, Lin Wenyuan was not so sincere and fearful when he greeted the county magistrate, but he still He deliberately arranged the position of He County Commander next to Xiao Yu, which made He County Commander glance at him with admiration.

Before six quarters, all merchants outside the inn had all "checked in" and took their seats in the lobby. At a glance, there were a total of six to seven hundred people. As for those who haven't come, after a while, as long as the fundraising conference is not over, they can still come in after "signing in" to verify their identity. This is where the fundraising conference is humanized.

It is worth mentioning that Li Yu also came with reporters from the editorial department of "Datang Daily". Of course, their purpose is not to donate money, but to record this patriotic event so that it can be presented in the newspaper of tomorrow. Publish publicity.

In the hot summer, the lobby on the first floor of the Longmen Inn was extremely cool, because buckets of ice were placed around the lobby. In front of each bucket, there was a maid holding a cat fan and fanning the wind. Air conditioning", so ~www.ltnovel.com~ everyone in the lobby will naturally not feel the heat!

Listening to Xiaosi’s report that all the outside businessmen have entered, Lin Wenyuan walked to the front of the crowd. He held the latest amplifier developed by Qiquge Workshop, that is, holding a speaker, facing the crowd:

"All friends from the business community should be called today to raise military funds for the country, Lao Fu Lin Wenyuan, on behalf of the Yanhuang Chamber of Commerce, on behalf of the Hou Ye, thank you all!"

Although Lin Wenyuan did not yell hysterically, his voice was resounding throughout the audience. The businessmen who were still talking to each other in low voices suddenly calmed down after hearing the loud noises. After Lin Wenyuan had said this, he faced everyone in front of the crowd deeply. Bowed, with a pious attitude and sincere expression!

This fundraising conference is not only beneficial to the Yanhuang Chamber of Commerce, it is more beneficial to the court and the people of the world, but Lin Wenyuan can only represent the Yanhuang Chamber of Commerce now. As for the court and the people of the world, he dare not take the courage of him. To represent.

"Boss Lin doesn't need to be polite. The nation is responsible for the rise and fall of the country~!"

At this moment, one person in the field said loudly.

As soon as this remark came out, many people immediately echoed:

"Yes, that's right! The rise and fall of a country is the responsibility of all people, and I want to do my best for Datang when I come here!"

"Yes, it is extremely! Without the stability of the country, what business does my generation of merchants do? Boss Lin does not have to be polite. I am waiting for the country as well as myself~!"

The echoing voices of the crowd made Xiao Yu feel slightly moved. He didn't expect these merchants to have such a high level of consciousness, whether they came from sincere or fake, but now that they can enter the Longmen Inn today, it means that they are really trying to donate money. Here, this is real money!
