The First and Second Trusted Confidants Join Forces!
In the past, when the Vast Heaven Chamber of Commerce opened a new branch, it would receive countless self-recommendation letters in a short period of time as soon as the news was released.
Countless people came to my door seeking employment...
After all, everyone knows that the treatment offered by Vast Heaven Chamber of Commerce is absolutely unique in the industry.
That's why so many people dream of joining the Vast Heaven Chamber of Commerce.
Even if many people wanted to join the Vast Heaven Chamber of Commerce, there has never been a terrifying 170,000 self-recommendation letters in a single day!
Moreover, there were even more than three thousand people among them whom Qin Xiangqian could name!
Among them are seasoned veterans older than Qin Xiangqian, as well as countless rising stars in the business world.
You have to understand, given Qin Xiangqian 'Qin Xiangqian status, anyone whose name he can remember is a remarkable figure in the business world!
These individuals were all important figures in various chambers of commerce in the past, the kind of people who were difficult to poach even if you wanted to.
Any one of them could absolutely stand on their own...
In Qin Xiangqian's words, half of these three thousand people could even become managers in a branch of the Vast Heaven Chamber of Commerce of Commerce!
But now, they don't even dare to dream of becoming managers; they wouldn't mind being an apprentice!
It is well known that Vast Heaven Chamber of Commerce of Commerce offers very high salaries and benefits.
However, after Vast Heaven Chamber of Commerce raised salaries without warning, all the other companies gritted their teeth and followed suit.
Although the treatment at Vast Heaven Holy Land remains top-tier, the treatment of ordinary Vast Heaven Chamber of Commerce members is absolutely incomparable to that of the senior members of other chambers of commerce.
It's not just about salary and benefits; the status and power they wield go without saying.
But now, these former managers of other chambers of commerce are even willing to become apprentices in the new branch of Vast Heaven Chamber of Commerce if they disagree with each other. Qin Xiangqian knows that they are not after the high salaries offered by Vast Heaven Chamber of Commerce.
After all, even a starved camel is bigger than a horse. Even if these other chamber of commerce executives are laid off or have their salaries reduced, their past income is enough to support three generations of their families.
At this time, they were even willing to become apprentices of the Vast Heaven Chamber of Commerce branch, not because they were short of money, but because they understood that only the Vast Heaven Holy Land truly treated them as human beings and would not deal with them first when faced with an unsolvable crisis.
Although they are apprentices now, their abilities are undeniable, and as long as they persevere, Future will surely have a bright Future.
So what they value isn't the salary, but the Future!
In just a few days, countless old friends practically wore out Qin Xiangqian's doorstep.
"Brother Qin, don't you know my abilities? I'm not asking for a managerial position, I just want a regular job. I'll start from scratch, is that not enough?"
Qin Xiangqian: "..."
"Brother Qin, are there no regular work positions left? How about an apprentice? An apprentice will do... I may be a bit old, but I'm sure I can handle being an apprentice!"
Qin Xiangqian: "..."
Qin Xiangqian was speechless... Well... it's not that I, Qin Xiangqian, am making things difficult for you, it's just that I know your abilities. Making you guys work as shop assistants and apprentices would be a complete waste of your talents!
The problem is, even if the two branches of the Vast Heaven Chamber of Commerce recruited all their staff at full capacity, they could only manage a maximum of a thousand people at most...
But now there are already three thousand of these business celebrities alone...
Faced with this situation, Qin Xiangqian was also in a dilemma... You see, many of these people were once Qin Xiangqian opponents, and Qin Xiangqian knew their abilities better than anyone else. Now that these talents were right in front of him, he really didn't want to let them go!
The problem is that, given the current situation, no one knows when Vast Heaven Chamber of Commerce will be able to turn a profit. In this situation, every additional person recruited will mean an additional expense for Vast Heaven Chamber of Commerce!
So after much deliberation, Qin Xiangqian sought out Senior Brother Xinghe once again!
When Chu Xinghe heard Qin Xiangqian's difficult question, his eyes welled up with tears of excitement!
Chu Xinghe said, "What's so difficult about that?"
Why not just take them all in? Besides, these are all talented people. We can't just treat them like apprentices. Let's show them all that Vast Heaven Holy Land values talent and will treat them the same as they did before!
What the hell? You're saying that with me, Chu Xinghe, recruiting so many talented people, I'm going to get betrayed and killed?
Quite the opposite!
Do you think I, Chu Xinghe, am unaware of the terrifying nature of these talents?
If you had kept this up until before the spirit mines were depleted of their spiritual essence and the merchant guild ran into trouble, I wouldn't have wanted even one of these talents, no matter how hard I tried.
Just think about it... The management team in various parts of Vast Heaven Chamber of Commerce was already quite good. Now, suddenly, so many influential figures in the business world have arrived. With them all going all out, you can't even imagine how much Vast Heaven Chamber of Commerce of Commerce's performance can improve!
So if it were before, even if they knelt down and begged me, Chu Xinghe, I would absolutely not give them any chance to enter.
But now... the spirit ore's loss of its spirit essence is inevitable. Under these circumstances, I, Chu Xinghe, Watch Quietly as Things Change the situation for so many days, and nothing has changed. Tell me, isn't this a sure thing?
With spirit stone production virtually nonexistent in the future, do you really think the merchant guild can recover and make huge profits like before?
Therefore, as long as the Chamber of Commerce fails to take off, these three thousand business elites are nothing more than three thousand guys who constantly drain the sect's resources for me Chu Xinghe, and serve no purpose whatsoever!
As the saying goes, even a clever cook can't cook without rice. These business elites, no matter how many ideas they have, now that the spirit stones are gone, tell me how they can turn things around?
Without spirit stones, they are not talented; they are all useless...
So Chu Xinghe waved his hand and said, "These useless... cough cough... these talented people will all stay. As for how to allocate them, Old Qin, you can decide. But I, Chu Xinghe, have only one requirement: we absolutely cannot mistreat them in terms of treatment..."
Everyone's treatment should remain the same as before; we absolutely cannot let them suffer any loss!
Good heavens! When the news spread that Chu Xinghe had detained all three thousand business elites without a word, everyone was truly stunned!
The unrestrained Chu Xinghe will always be the unrestrained Chu Xinghe.
I completely don't understand this game's gameplay!
As everyone has analyzed, after the spirit ore was de-spirited, the current situation will definitely become extremely difficult for all the merchant guilds due to the scarcity of spirit stones.
This is also the main reason why various parties didn't question why their own business elites would send their resumes to Vast Heaven Holy Land at the slightest disagreement.
In the past, major chambers of commerce would never have stood by and watched so many elites join the Vast Heaven Chamber of Commerce.
After all, it's not easy to cultivate an elite like that.
However, it seems that all chambers of commerce will be doomed in the short term. In the past, major powers could make profits by relying on chambers of commerce, and then supply the sects with those profits.
But now the collapse of spirit stones has caused all transactions to crash, and no one knows how long this situation will last.
Each of these business elites requires resources to support them.
These days, most sects can barely afford to support their own disciples, let alone these merchants? Isn't that ridiculous?
Therefore, apart from the top Ten Great Sects like Martial Emperor City, which still spend resources to support their own merchants and wait and see how things go, the smaller and medium-sized forces have long since abandoned the merchant guild system.
And these merchants who were abandoned have now all joined the Vast Heaven Chamber of Commerce!
Qin Xiangqian made arrangements for these three thousand elites immediately, assigning them to various branches of the Vast Heaven Chamber of Commerce. Of course, even if they were exceptionally capable, they could not be given high positions directly. If they wanted Future, they had to climb up step by step through their own efforts!
If this had happened in the past, Qin Xiangqian acquiring three thousand business elites at once would have made everyone's eyes pop out of their sockets.
But this time, faced with Qin Xiangqian's three thousand business elites, not only did no one feel envious, but they all thought that Chu Xinghe must have gone crazy!
What the hell was Chu Xinghe thinking?
What time is it? Don't you, Chu Xinghe, understand the situation at this point?
At this point, these three thousand business elites will not only fail to bring you any benefits, but will also increase the operating costs of your Vast Heaven Chamber of Commerce!
Some people began to calculate how high the operating costs of the Vast Heaven Chamber of Commerce were now. Coupled with the current sales volume of the Vast Heaven Chamber of Commerce, everyone quickly came to the conclusion that the current losses of the Vast Heaven Chamber of Commerce were so high that the daily losses of the Vast Heaven Chamber of Commerce could even reach the monthly consumption of a large sect!
This is an absolutely terrifying and outrageous loss figure!
With the spirit mines losing their spiritual energy, everyone has to tighten their belts. Even if your Vast Heaven Holy Land has the Vast Heaven Divine Domain, the total amount of spirit stones produced by your Vast Heaven Divine Domain is barely enough for the disciples of your Vast Heaven Holy Land to use themselves, right?
Chu Xinghe's reckless behavior is only accelerating the depletion of Vast Heaven Holy Land's resources. Isn't this exactly the behavior of a spendthrift son?
When outsiders casually label him a spendthrift, Chu Xinghe's eyes well up with tears!
Everyone's judgment on me was spot on! I, Chu Xinghe, am a complete spendthrift...
I, Chu Xinghe, dream of spending all my money...
Whether Senior Brother Xinghe wanted to squander his wealth was unknown to Qin Xiangqian, but Qin Xiangqian, who had just become the president of Vast Heaven Chamber of Commerce, convened the first meeting of the branch presidents of Vast Heaven Chamber of Commerce.
Sima Bian, Shi Biao, Lu Chengqing, and others all attended the meeting.
The three of them are also having a tough time now; the more they made money before, the more they are losing now.
Currently, all parties in the Vast Heaven Chamber of Commerce are suffering continuous losses. The loss figures calculated by outsiders are actually inaccurate. The daily losses of the Vast Heaven Chamber of Commerce are several times higher than the figures calculated by outsiders.
The Vast Heaven Chamber of Commerce is currently losing so much money every day that it's barely enough to keep a large sect afloat, let alone keep Martial Emperor City running.
Although everything at Vast Heaven Chamber of Commerce remained the same, Qin Xiangqian felt uneasy listening to the reported losses.
When others become presidents, their chambers of commerce take off, but after he became president, the chambers of commerce suffered huge losses. If this continues, Qin Xiangqian feels that he might end up being the scapegoat.
"Old Qin, Senior Brother Xinghe Senior Brother Xinghe is never one to speak without reason. Didn't he give you any pointers this time?" Lu Chengqing knew that Senior Brother Xinghe's seemingly whimsical actions always had a deeper meaning, so he was sure he had a deeper meaning this Senior Brother Xinghe as well!
However, after carefully considering his conversation with Senior Brother Xinghe, Qin Xiangqian realized that Senior Brother Xinghe had said very little to him this time, and hadn't given him any guidance at all!
Regarding Qin Xiangqian's words, Lu Chengqing said, "Old Qin, you're wrong. Senior Brother Xinghe must have said something, but you just haven't noticed it yet, or perhaps you, Old Qin, haven't fully understood what Senior Brother Xinghe meant!"
That's why Vast Heaven Chamber of Commerce has been consistently losing money!
After listening to Lu Chengqing's words, Qin Xiangqian into deep thought, and soon made a decision!
Return to Vast Heaven Holy Land and seek help from Senior Brother Ma Liang. Let him analyze the situation!
With my second most trusted confidant Qin Xiangqian and my first most trusted confidant Senior Brother Ma Liang, I'm sure I'll understand Senior Brother Xinghe's intentions and won't disappoint Senior Brother Xinghe!
