Ouyang Wenjun must have been careless when he was described as a lump, but Li Luoyang felt that this kind of lying gun was even more helpless. As a young and promising teenager, how can he be compared with a lump?
The meal was really embarrassing. At least Li Luoyang felt that he had supported himself without eating much at all. He was alive and full of Qi. Wu Xinyi added two meals and ate them quickly. However, his stomach had not changed at all.
"Is it because you don't have enough gas?" Li Luoyang was suspicious when he got off the table. However, Ouyang Wenjun and yu'er didn't seem to eat much, at least not as much as he did. It seems that it should be individual differences rather than his lack of measurement.
"I continue to write novels." Wu Xinyi doesn't even look at Ouyang Wenjun and yu'er. She clearly doesn't regard them as opponents. This kind of disregard is more unacceptable to Ouyang Wenjun than words.
When Ouyang Wenjun was about to scold, Li Luoyang said leisurely, "Hey, you don't really have an idea about me? I'm still a child."
"Are you still a child?"
The expressions on the faces of Ouyang Wenjun and yu'er suddenly became strange. Yes, no matter from which point of view, Li Luoyang is not an adult man. Are they really obsessed with Wu Xinyi to have an unnecessary battle?
Even if you win, what if you push Li Luoyang directly? Not to mention whether Li Luoyang will cooperate or not, just think about it. It's not what people should do.
"So, I'd better hurry to finish the elegant building of Wenjun. I'll lose thousands of liang of silver in one day."
"Yes, the resumption of business is the business." Ouyang Wenjun found a step for herself. As for yu'er, there are not many things about her at all. She doesn't have Ouyang Wenjun's shrewdness. Even if she is thinking about something, she doesn't dare to stand up and compete with others, especially Wu Xinyi's woman who is both literate and martial, beautiful and intelligent, and her identity gap, Yu'er thinks the gap between her and Wu Xinyi is the sky and the earth.
If you let yu'er know that her childhood life and Wu Xinyi are the real heaven and earth. Compared with Wu Xinyi, Wu Xinyi is a rural mud doll, and yu'er is as delicate as a porcelain doll, I don't know what yu'er would feel. So sometimes I can't just look at the surface. Just like Ouyang Wenjun, I'm afraid even yu'er can't understand how her shrewdness came from.
Li Luoyang also doesn't understand, but he doesn't care about Ouyang Wenjun's shrewdness. When Li Luoyang was in the Lin family, he tried to understand the merchant Federation. Unfortunately, Lin Luoshui couldn't give him the answer. After all, the Lin family wouldn't let Lin Luoshui touch those things that couldn't be on the table. When he came back, Li Luoyang remembered that he could actually ask Ouyang Wenjun.
The fact is that Ouyang Wenjun really knows the merchant Federation, because for businessmen of her level, the merchant Federation is no secret at all. However, almost all businessmen with a little face in Luoyang know the existence of such an organization.
"What on earth does this business association do?"
Li Luoyang asked curiously.
"Well, I joined the merchant Federation almost three years ago. It is said that this organization is very old. It has existed since the previous dynasty. I am also one of its members."
"You are also a member? Do you have any obligations or something?"
"Members at my level only need a membership fee of one hundred Liang silver a year. They don't have to bear anything else."
"One hundred liang?" for ordinary families, one hundred Liang is a high cost, but for Ouyang Wenjun, one hundred Liang is nothing at all, and it is only one hundred Liang a year, which is simply negligible. However, Ouyang Wenjun said that after becoming a member of the merchant Federation, there is an opportunity to "borrow" every month and every year.
In fact, inter-bank lending is to apply for a loan, and as a member of the merchants' Federation, with different grades, the lower the collateral requirements, the higher the amount of loan that can be applied for, and more importantly, the lower the loan interest. Take Ouyang Wenjun for example. If she takes advantage of her annual opportunity, she can probably apply for a loan of between 12000 and 30000 Liang, and only need to pay interest of 500 to 1500 Liang a year.
According to the interest of borrowing in this era, this interest is basically negligible. After all, the real usury among the people is a vampire. Once it is infected, it will not stop until the blood is drained.
In addition to the once-a-year opportunity, the merchant Federation also has a serious "mortgage loan". However, once it enters the mortgage loan process, neither the mortgage valuation discount nor the loan interest is far less favorable than once a year.
"So, is the merchant Federation actually an investment company? Who is the founder? Who is the current president? In addition, how can they be so interested in our brothers and even have contact with Zhou Dong?" Li Luoyang felt that the more he knew, the more questions he had in mind, and the merchant Federation came out for no reason, How could an organization that Lin Luoshui had never been in contact with find its own head inexplicably?
"Neither the president nor the founder has any records. Anyway, I don't know. I said that I am a Huangji member, and I don't have those permissions at all. Of course, the benefits of becoming a member are not just borrowing money. For example, many of the suppliers who usually supply me are members of the Federation, and those who repair the way for us are also members. Members are different from members We know each other better, and the price will be more favorable. "
"Oh? That's like a mutual aid association. Yes, this merchant association is very interesting. Do they have a hall in Luoyang?"
"It's not just loans and mutual assistance. The merchant Federation also has the most important function, which is to provide a lot of information, such as where and what materials are needed. I haven't been to the Federation for a long time, because I don't need loans or information. If you are interested, I can take you to the merchant Federation in Los Angeles The entrance to the hall of the sun turns around. "
"This is really possible. Why don't we go tomorrow?"
"Well, but actually, I'm beginning to regret it now. I don't think it's a good thing for you to go to the merchant Federation."
"Why?" Li Luoyang asked curiously.
"Don't you understand?" Ouyang Wenjun gently poked Li Luoyang's chest with his hand and said in a low voice: "think about how many merchants have been influenced by you since you arrived in Luoyang? Besides, just a Xianliang liquid has made many wine merchants hate you?"
