Chapter VIII The parties compete, the drunkard's intention is not to drink
"Special farming tools? Iron smelting and forging levels far beyond today's standards? Strange seeds? And many other weird things?"
Looking at the reply in his hand, Chun Shenjun, who was far away in Chu State, couldn't help but change his expression. This time was different from the last time he received a letter. Before, it was just a letter sent by an underappreciated family concubine, but this time he sent
The people in the past can all be regarded as confidants, and they are not comparable to ordinary people. The information fed back by this group of people is not just hearsay. It must have been investigated and some of them were missed!
"This Chenggao Chen family actually has real abilities? Did I make a mistake?"
As soon as he thought about this, Chun Shenjun couldn't help but rub his eyebrows and felt a headache.
At the moment, he was troubled by the disintegration of the Five Nations Allied Forces - when the news came, he was still thinking of using his connections in Wei and Zhao to find a way to bring the Five Nations Allied Forces back together, at least to
Blocking Qin's troops for a period of time gave Chu the time to recover and respond. Now it has been confirmed that the Wei King's suspicion of Xinling Lord Wei Wuji has almost become public, and it is impossible to allow Xinling Lord to serve as the commander-in-chief of the Five Kingdoms Allied Forces.
Without the prestige of Lord Xinling to suppress the discord among the five kingdoms, it would be difficult to maintain military strength.
"well."
Shaking his head, Governor Chun Shen had no choice but to let go and focus on the matter in front of him.
"Since the coalition cannot do anything, then it will ultimately depend on our country of Chu itself, which must use various methods to enhance its national strength." Thinking of this, he lowered his head and glanced at the letter in his hand, "If this Chen Chenggao is really capable,
Then invite anyone who wants to come! After all, farming is related to the population, and iron smelting is directly related to the military! Compared with it, the confusion that the so-called rise and fall theory may cause is not that important!"
He took the letter and after reading it several times, he could already see the urgency of the writer from between the lines, and his expression gradually became solemn.
"I was careless at first. I was so disturbed by the affairs of the Five Kingdoms that I didn't notice the strangeness of this Chen family. Now that he has emerged, I am not the only one who knows about this matter. I am afraid that all other families will also know about it."
There is action! Especially the Qin State. Since that person is in Sanchuan County, now that the Five Kingdoms have retreated, the Qin Army has made a comeback and regained control of the important area of Sanchuan. Now that he knows that this person exists, he will not let go easily! "
After thinking about this, Chun Shenjun couldn't help but rub his head.
"Or the coalition forces retreated too early and dispersed too quickly. The Qin army was trapped in the pass. How could it be so distressed?"
But now there is no use worrying about it. I can only react quickly based on the current situation, directly summoned my brother Huang Zhun and nephew Huang Yang, and said: "There is a big thing for you to do right now...
…”
After giving the instructions, the two of them were surprised, but they didn't dare not believe it, let alone waste time. They went back to pack their bags and set out on the road early the next morning. After nearly half a month of bumpy roads, they finally arrived.
Chenggao, before entering the city, he noticed a different atmosphere here.
"These chariots and horses, judging by their flags, are not ordinary people."
Yellow Sheep looked around and noticed that most of the people coming and going on the road were horse-drawn carriages and ox-carts, as well as people walking. Although most of them were dusty, they could not hide their extraordinary demeanor.
Huang Zhun also looked around, and when he had to look around, he said in a deep voice: "This is natural. If what your Majesty said is true, then whoever comes to look for Cheng Gao Chen this time will probably cross his threshold!"
"Then what should we do? But first we need to find out clearly who is coming to the city?"
"Where do we still need to find out? We are already a step too late. We can't waste any more time." Huang Zhun shook his head, "What's more, we all know who is coming, and there is no need to ask deliberately. Likewise, we all know who is coming.
, we don’t have to hide ourselves, just do it.”
Looking at the city gate getting closer and closer, Huang Zhun frowned more and more.
"Now it seems that not only is there no falsehood in what the Lord said, I'm afraid he also underestimated Mr. Chen! It will be difficult for us to convince him without paying some price."
Although they were mentally prepared, when the two of them entered the city, a lot of news continued to reach their ears. One said that Lord Zhao was willing to recruit Mr. Chen as the lord of the city, and the other said that Zhao General Li Mu had visited Chen.
How admired the queen was, and spoke frankly about the recruitment. There were also rumors that the daughter of Lord Longyang of Wei State invited Chen family to come out of the mountain, that Prime Minister Lu Buwei of Qin sent people to invite Chen family three times, and that Tian family of Qi State was willing to invite Chen family on the condition of entering the ancestral temple.
The uncle and nephew of the Huang family were dazzled by hearing this one after another.
After receiving a wave of news, Huang Yang almost gave up and said with a wry smile: "It's a city in exchange, a large sum of money, and a few invitations from Prime Minister Qin. The little money we brought,
I’m afraid it won’t catch anyone’s eyes at all.”
"That's not necessarily the case." Huang Zhun shook his head, "I think we may have a chance to recruit this person. If not, other companies may not be able to do it either."
"What do you think my uncle said?"
Huang Zhun said: "With so many conditions and so many forces taking action, if that person was tempted, he would have been invited to leave long ago. How can you and I wait?"
"It makes sense. I'm tempted. I left a long time ago. If I stay now, is it because I'm waiting for a price to sell? I want to wait for several countries to come and then choose the best to become an official?" Huang Yang said this, showing a bit of surprise,
"I'm afraid this person's ambition is not small."
Huang Zhun said: "This is one possibility, and there is another possibility. What this person wants is not gold, silver, jewelry, power, wealth and wealth."
Huang Yang wondered: "If it's not these, what else could it be?"
Huang Zhun said meaningfully: "You must not forget that according to the Lord, this person first became famous for preaching a theory of rise and fall."
"He wants to promote a doctrine?" Huang Yang's face changed slightly, "This family's doctrine can often influence a party's people's hearts and even change the destiny of the country. No matter how talented this person is, I am afraid that those big countries will not easily agree."
"Yes, although the various schools of thought are very powerful and have a lot of influence among the people and scholars, when it comes to the court, they still use it if it agrees and leave it if it doesn't. How can you easily get the position of a theory?
"Huang Zhun nodded, "So, the first step for us when we come this time is to find out his purpose! If he really has this idea, we must explain it to him, persuade him to give up his idea, and then give him some preferential treatment, such as
Allow him to build a school and see if he can recruit people."
"Uncle is still thoughtful."
The uncle and nephew made up their minds and went to visit, but half a day later, they left Chenzhuang with a sigh.
"I'm afraid no one will allow him to be so persistent in spreading the so-called rise and fall theory."
On the way back, Huang Zhun said to his nephew: "In the final analysis, although what he took out is precious, if you send out a detailed investigation to find out slowly, you can get it one by one. In contrast, if you use the power of a country to promote a doctrine, there will be no resistance."
too big."
Huang Yang nodded in agreement: "Yes, and according to his wishes, he will recruit students on a large scale and open lectures. In this way, it will be better to arrange and work carefully."
As the two uncles and nephews expected, after knowing that Chen Cuo's purpose was to spread and promote the theory of rise and fall, each family became more cautious. After all, they all had prominent scholars in their respective countries, including among the officials.
There are also many people who advocate various schools of thought. If they are pushed forward forcefully, chaos will inevitably arise. What's more, Chen Cuo, a person who appears out of nowhere, is not worth the risk of each school.
Therefore, in the following years, each company's interest in recruiting gradually died down.
In contrast, more and more people come to Chenzhuang to study.
Chen Cuo taught without distinction and spread his knowledge widely, and gradually he began to spread his knowledge all over the world. However, this also caused disapproval from various countries and schools.
As everyone knows, as more and more people know about the theory of rise and fall, the hazy light gathered on Chen Cuo gradually becomes stronger.
"Soon."
In the fifth year since he came to this world, Chen Cuo noticed that the human thoughts gathered in him had reached a bottleneck.
"The opportunity to break through the obstacles and understand the past and the present has arrived!"
In his eyes, the veins at the other end of the green jade belt became increasingly clear.
.
.
"Um?"
In the long river of time, outside the dark barrier.
The long-haired Taoist stood in the air, frowning slightly as he felt the growing power on the other side of the barrier.
"It only took a moment, and the Chen family was ready to go, fearing that they would lay the foundation! But they couldn't let it go, and they couldn't let those two people hide anymore."
After the thought fell, he flicked his finger, and a little spiritual light disappeared into the barrier.
