Chapter 225 Stopping and not letting in
Shen An sighed and put the 1000 taels in her palm, muttering: "We are so familiar with each other, and I have helped you so much, so I can't..."
Before he could finish his words, Dong Qian directly interrupted his thoughts, "Of course not. You said before that even brothers will settle accounts. We are just friends."
After Dong Qian put the remaining gift box in front of him, Shen An just wanted to complain, but suddenly fell silent.
"What do you mean?" Just now she said that brothers were settling accounts.
Dong Qian smiled and said, "Didn't I say that we are friends? It's not too much to help friends give gifts, right?"
Seeing the bright smile on her face, Shen An smiled and nodded.
However, since it was a gift from a friend, Shen An put it away directly and did not sell it as a commodity.
"Since we are friends, can you make breakfast for me again?" Shen An asked very shamelessly.
Dong Qian rubbed her aching brow, it was really nice to have such a friend!
Before arriving, Qin Han had already prepared breakfast for Dong Qian to eat on the way, but he seemed to be worried that Dong Qian would not be full, so he prepared five steamed buns alone.
How could she eat so much, so she gave the rest to Shen An.
Shen An devoured his food, and it was obvious that he had not eaten breakfast.
"Let me tell you, if the breakfast shop you opened was not too far away from here, I would definitely eat there every morning." Shen An said hesitantly, but Dong Qian still heard clearly.
She didn't answer because Dong Qian didn't want to see him every morning and affect the relationship between them.
Seeing that it was almost time, Shen An took Dong Qian to the City Lord's Mansion.
Registering as a merchant is different from paying fees before. The process is more cumbersome. Moreover, Dong Qian came to Fucheng from Yancheng, so it takes one more step than ordinary people.
But fortunately, Shen An is here, and he handles almost all the procedures for registering as a merchant. It just so happens that Shen An is familiar with the people in the City Lord's Mansion, and he can handle it very quickly.
In addition, the taxes paid after becoming a merchant will be more than before, but not much more, so there is no need to worry about this.
By the time everything was settled, it was already noon.
"After becoming a merchant, are there any benefits to joining the chamber of commerce?" Dong Qian looked at her new identity and asked curiously.
It can't be said that there are many benefits. If the Chamber of Commerce can help you in every aspect, then this is nothing like doing business.
"Didn't you say before that the most important thing in doing business is connections, just like when you first arrived, if Xu Cheng hadn't introduced you to me, we would never have known each other in this life." Shen An said it very clearly. reason.
If you want people from the Chamber of Commerce to help you, this is not an easy task.
In general, everything depends on one's own ability. The Chamber of Commerce can only be said to be a line of work, helping Dong Qian meet people she had never met before.
"Let's go, I will take you to see the president of the Chamber of Commerce now." Shen An knew that the next thing would not go smoothly, but this was what Dong Qian had to face.
Dong Qian nodded, and the two of them got on the carriage again.
The Chamber of Commerce is located in the most prosperous place in the entire city. It is also the tallest building in the city. An ordinary restaurant with three floors is already the highest, but the Chamber of Commerce venue is as high as five floors.
Dong Qian was shocked by the facilities inside when she first walked in. Its brilliance was completely different from Dongmeifang. Although the materials may not be that expensive, it did look very grand.
Suddenly two men walked towards me and asked, "Do you two have a pass? You can go out without a pass."
Their attitude was not very good. Shen An impatiently took out the pass from his arms, but Dong Qian did not.
"I told you, no one can come in without a pass!" The two of them wanted to escort Dong Qian out.
Shen An directly stopped the two men's movements, "Has the Chamber of Commerce become so unattainable now?"
"How can the newcomer get a pass if he doesn't go in and find the president?"
Dong Qian didn't want him to quarrel with the people of the Chamber of Commerce for her own sake.
It can be said that Shen An's strength completely ignored the existence of the Chamber of Commerce. It was indeed useful when the business just started. Now that Shen An has strength, he does not need to rely on them.
The two men sneered, "Mr. Shen, you are right, we are going to do this. Otherwise, why do you think so?"
Shen An looked at them with a stern look on his face and led Dong Qian out.
"It seems that when you were registered as a merchant, someone had already tipped off the news to the Chamber of Commerce. They are now very repulsive about your existence."
Dong Qian pursed her lips and asked, "Is there any solution now?"
Shen An thought for a moment and then shook his head. He didn't know.
If Dong Qian cannot join the Chamber of Commerce, it will not make much sense to become a merchant.
The two people stood helpless next to the carriage. Suddenly they heard a very unbeatable voice, and the two people looked up.
"Are you two in trouble?" Although he was asking, there was an uncontrollable smile in his tone.
Dong Qian became even worse after seeing that it was Jin Zhe.
It happened that he saw it when he was in such an embarrassing situation.
Neither Dong Qian nor Shen An paid attention to him. Jin Zhe curled his lips helplessly and said, "Can you two stop talking? I'm here to help you!"
"How can you be so kind?" Shen An's expression was full of disbelief.
Jin Zhe shrugged and said, "If you don't believe it, then I'd better leave." After that, he turned around and was about to leave, but to his surprise, neither Shen An nor Dong Qian stopped him.
He took two steps out and immediately turned around, furious at the two people's incompetence, "Come with me, what's the use of you two just standing here?"
"I can follow you in?" Dong Qian obviously didn't believe it.
Jin Zhe said proudly: "Don't forget what my grandfather did."
Their ancestral home has been in Fucheng since their grandfather's generation. It can be said that they have been involved in the Chamber of Commerce for more than 100 years, and they still have a very high status in the Chamber of Commerce.
Even the president of the Chamber of Commerce here must be courteous to Jin Zhe's grandfather.
Although their family is now in decline, they definitely have more connections than everyone in the Chamber of Commerce.
When they walked to the door, the two men came over again. They had received orders today not to let Dong Qian enter the chamber of commerce.
Until Jin Zhe took out his token, "This token has the same status as the president of the Chamber of Commerce. Are you sure you won't let her in?"
The two men immediately panicked. They were just entrusted by others, but they were not so bold to offend someone who was related to the president of the Chamber of Commerce. Dong Qian easily entered the venue.
As she had expected, there were men everywhere here, and Dong Qian didn't even see a shadow of a woman.
"I really don't understand what business you, a woman, want to do. There is only one woman in the entire chamber of commerce, and you are the second one."
