Vol 2 Chapter 1811: Fundraising Conference! (on)

"Sun catching head, are you...?"
The arrival of the county government's nearly 100 government officials naturally attracted the attention of Lin Wenyuan, the "host" of the fundraising meeting. He hurried forward, looked at Sun Catou and asked.
Lantian County is the fief of Li Zexuan, and today’s fundraising meeting’s "host" is the Yanhuang Chamber of Commerce, and the sponsor behind the scenes is Li Zexuan. Therefore, Lin Wenyuan will naturally not mistakenly think that so many people with Sun catching the head 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 Catou held a fist towards Lin Wenyuan very politely, said.
Hearing this, Lin Wenyuan hurriedly said: "Where is Sun Catcher? This fundraising meeting involves huge sums of money and wealth. 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, he is protected by Li Zexuan, and 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 that he now has all this is given to him, he now deals with people in the officialdom adhering to "not humble or overbearing, people respect him. "He respects others" principle! It will neither shame the Yanhuang Chamber of Commerce, nor cause trouble for the Yanhuang Chamber of Commerce for no reason!
"Haha! Master Lin, you don't have to be polite, Sun is just a rough man. It is Sun's responsibility to protect this Longmen 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 surprised. He did not expect that the county government not only sent a catcher to maintain law and order, but also the county magistrate He would come in person after a while. This is a fundraising meeting initiated by the Yanhuang Chamber of Commerce for business people. Isn’t the county magistrate here afraid of being gossiped about his identity?
Even though he thought so in his heart, Lin Wenyuan said calmly and respectfully: "Sun catches the head and really did 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 path, and saw an official wearing a purple robe with a golden belt on his waist, carrying seven or eight children. 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!
"Huh~! 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 Elder Xiao Ge doing here?"
The people onlookers whispered and talked.
It’s not that they haven’t seen a high official. Even the emperor has ever been to Lantian County. They are only three-rank and above officials, all of whom are important court officials. Now that the fundraising meeting is about to be held, a third-rank official suddenly came here. Can't help but whisper!
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 didn't say that Xiao Yu would come here in person. In fact, for this kind of thing, Xiao Yu only needs to send a few "brothers" to him. But the old man had previously made a bet with Li Er. The bet was whether this fundraising meeting could raise 150,000 troops. He naturally wanted to come and see in person!
The businessman pays much attention to profit. Xiao Yu still doesn't 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 fails to raise enough military funds. Where can I get this money? After all, Li Er's edict has been sent to all states and counties, and the elite soldiers of 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. It's a book, naturally you have to think of ways to raise military funds!
Little did the 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 to use this opportunity to arouse the patriotism of the people of Datang, 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 to let Xiao Yu, the Shangshu of the Household Department, 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 inside!"
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. It is not inferior to Yanhuang Academy. It is generous! It is worthy of being the first inn in Lantian County!"
As busy as Xiao Yu on business affairs, he naturally has no 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 would naturally be amazed!
"Xiao Shang has a good reputation, how can this inn compare with the sacred places of literature 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 the highest status of Xiao Yu, and there is nothing wrong with inviting him to the table!
Xiao Yu shook his head and said, "This official is just watching. You have to host this fundraising meeting, Boss Lin. 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 didn't have any good countermeasures. After all, Li Zexuan was not here, and 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 in 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 young man 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. 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 a rectangular sign with the number of donations, the donor and the representative store, so that you can enter.
The main purpose of this move is to improve the efficiency of the fundraising meeting. Although the lobby on the first floor of Longmen Inn is large, its capacity is limited after all.
Not long after he was a freshman, the county magistrate He of Lantian County also came with a group of officials. With Xiao Yu, a third-rank member in front, Lin Wenyuan was not so sincere and fearful when he greeted the county magistrate, but he still He specially 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 six to seven hundred people. As for those who haven't come, after a while, as long as the fundraising meeting is not over, they can still come in after "signing in" to verify their identity. This is where the fundraising meeting 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 reported in the newspaper tomorrow. Publish publicity.
In the hot summer, the lobby on the first floor of Longmen Inn was extremely cool, because buckets of ice were placed around the lobby, and there was a maid holding a puff fan in front of each bucket, fanning the wind. Air-conditioning", in this way, everyone in the hall will naturally not feel the heat!
Listening to Xiaosi’s report that all the outside businessmen have entered ~EbookFREE.me~ Lin Wenyuan walked in front of the crowd, holding the latest amplifier developed by Qiquge Workshop, that is, holding a speaker, facing everyone:
"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, and on behalf of Hou Ye, thank you!"
Although Lin Wenyuan did not yell hysterically, his voice resounded throughout the audience. The businessmen who were still talking to each other in low voices suddenly calmed down after hearing this loud noise. After Lin Wenyuan had said this, he was facing 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 the country is the responsibility of all people. 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 need 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 sincerity or lie, 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!
