The matter of the Twelve Linked Huts was quite easy to resolve.
The conversation between Yuchi and them went roughly as follows.
"President?"
"It's like this..."
"Oh, understood!"
"Is there any difficulty?"
"No difficulty at all! Absolutely no problem! Wholeheartedly thinking for the sake of the chamber of commerce!"
For the Twelve Linked Huts.
For the chamber of commerce.
A handshake.
In the midst of sweat and toil, the matter was settled.
The twelve family heads watched Yuchi leave, each with eyes full of emotion.
"Did we just easily agree to his request like that?" the third head asked.
"Yes, otherwise are you going to oppose the chamber of commerce now?"
"Obviously, the chamber of commerce is in the process of eliminating its enemies."
In pursuit of development, the chamber of commerce needed to clear out all nearby enemies.
Of course, the Twelve Linked Huts could see this... except for Qian Wenshi.
They had no reason, nor was it necessary, to oppose the chamber of commerce.
For what?
It's unwise.
"Not only that, but they now have the financial and material resources to rebuild a port."
"Do you want to force them to build a port themselves?"
"I don't want to."
Qian Wenshi answered depressingly, "But Yuchi probably wouldn't choose to rebuild a port if we don't provide ships, right?"
"That's very expensive, right."
"And it's a thankless effort..."
The more he spoke, the more his tone wavered.
When he saw the death stare from his brothers beside him, he shrank his neck.
"...Can he really do it?" Qian Wenshi swallowed a mouthful of saliva.
"Nonsense!"
"Right now, the six major families are relying on Yuchi to take the lead, and the government currently also supports him!"
"Now, if we stand out, without the six families saying a word, the government will come."
"Do you want to talk to the government officials?"
Qian Wenshi shook his head, sweat splashing everywhere, "I don't."
"There you go."
"We mind our own business, just don't bring bad luck upon ourselves."
"Honestly speaking, I like this young man; he gives me a very reliable feeling."
Doing business is just like that.
Not afraid of how strong the other side is, just afraid that the other side is unreliable.
And then spews nonsense.
If we talk about the request put forward by Yuchi, it is a reasonable request.
The chamber of commerce bought out all the ships of the Twelve Linked Huts at market price.
As a result, the Twelve Linked Huts now felt like an auxiliary under the chamber of commerce.
You should know that when Yuchi first saw the Twelve Linked Huts, he was still sighing over the power of such a force.
This gave them a sudden sense of gap, but in reality, it was also much more comfortable.
Now they don't need to fuss over the matters of those small family clans.
You should know that concerning the goods of small family clans, it really doesn't earn money and is very troublesome.
Not only stingy, but also very picky.
The chamber of commerce is different.
The chamber of commerce directly took over all of the chamber's freighters, so all goods from the six major families can be transported smoothly.
This way, there's no need for so many troublesome things.
But when speaking of this, Qian Wenshi was still somewhat confused.
"Yes, it's me again."
"I completely don't understand." Amidst everyone's speechlessness, he scratched his head and grinned foolishly.
As the youngest of the twelve family heads, he still couldn't see some matters clearly.
Firstly, he's not old enough.
Secondly, he hasn't delved deeply into the world.
The ten older rogues beside him are all afraid of water, they'd fall to the riverbed the moment they touch the water.
"What do you think those small family clans in Xufu Town will do?"
They only have less than a month left to use, beyond that, they won't be able to transport their goods.
You should know that the Wei Family previously almost caused a big issue because of such a thing.
The large family clans still have sizable funds, even that's risky, let alone these small family clans.
The response from the head was very relaxed, "Why should we bother with these things?"
"Do you still want to meddle in the affairs inside the chamber of commerce?"
Saying this, he was already ready to grab Qian Wenshi's ear and throw him into the great river to feed the fish.
What do you want?
Did the previous matters mean nothing?
And your relationship with Yuchi was all for naught?!
We've all been convinced, yet you're still guessing and doubting in various ways.
"I don't want to, I just want to make money peacefully." Qian Wenshi hurriedly answered.
"There you go!"
Numerous family heads stood on the wooden board, looking at the surging river below, conversing with a sense of ease and comfort.
"The chamber of commerce doesn't interfere with the operation of each family."
"As outsiders, why should we meddle in the affairs of the chamber of commerce?"
"You don't really think this young Yuchi is merciful, do you?"
After what the head said, the other heads also fell silent.
Indeed.
Besides the six major families in Xufu Town, there are countless small family clans.
These small families involve more matters back and forth, at least more than ten thousand people are connected to this issue.
But Yuchi can directly and decisively carry out such actions, not giving any opportunities for discussions or negotiations.
Turning back he directly backstabbed all the small family clan's people, truly not fearing any revenge.
This young man's mind must be astonishingly decisive.
"As of now, what he has done is beneficial to us, what are we worried about?"
The head looked at the distant patrols.
A team had been sent over to provide protection, clearly showing higher authorities support this matter.
...
Outside the Twelve Linked Huts.
Yuchi, holding little Ximo, looked at the river, considering the strong wind on the river, not wanting it to cause any harm.
As he approached the inn outside the Twelve Linked Huts, he was also playfully chatting with little Ximo.
"Is this vase pretty?" Yuchi looked at little Ximo, holding a vase like it was a treasure.
The vase was bought on the roadside, cheap, ten coins.
However, it was golden, making little Ximo hold it like she was holding a pile of money.
"Pretty~" Little Ximo blinked her big eyes, "Uncle, the vase is empty, doesn't make a sound."
"It's uncle." Yuchi smiled and threw a coin into the vase.
Shook it.
Jingle jangle.
"Uncle only has this much, not enough, how about we ask your dad for more?"
"Ooh!" Little Ximo giggled, "Then let's go back and ask Dad for more, to give Uncle!"
"Haha, really smart!"
Yuchi kissed the chubby little face, he really liked little Ximo's appearance.
Especially her love for money look.
Those bright big eyes filled with a yearning for shiny things.
Hmm.
Not bad.
Just exactly like me.
Fortunately, he's sure it's not his biological child.
If he failed to maintain self-control, he'd really overthink.
Her biological dad is lucky not to hear little Ximo's words, otherwise, he'd cough blood directly upward.
...
What!
This youth can even laugh!
And still looks pure and innocent like a young master!
In the distance, Xun Xian sneaked a glance at Yuchi, somewhat amazed.
Who would dare believe this youth is now the hot topic of Xufu Town? You completely can't tell!
To those unaware, they'd think he already has a child at such a young age.
Experiencing the joy of family life!
In reality, who would believe it!
While carrying a baby, he just goes to the Twelve Linked Huts to discuss matters, without any panic!
She, herself, didn't want to go to those musclemen in the Twelve Linked Huts!
Afraid they might have a wrestling match!
Such a great mindset this young man has!
