Fei Qian said: "Now Luoyang is in danger... Forgive Qian to be honest, if the nest is overturned, there may not be any eggs left. This rich place will soon turn into scorched earth..."
"Haha, my dear brother, are you just joking? It's just a dispute in the imperial court. What does it have to do with me and other common people?" Cui Hou obviously thought that although the flag on the top of Luoyang City was changed, it should have nothing to do with people like him who were not involved.
, and even if it were replaced by someone else, the Prime Minister would not be under the court of the Han Dynasty, how could Luoyang become a scorched earth?
"The rituals and music have collapsed, and it is difficult to collect the water... The tigers and wolves have been released from the cage, how can they stop easily without seeing blood?" Fei Qian said, pointing at Luoyang City, "Now the place where the doves and tigers live is outside Cheng Gao.
Another group of hungry wolves gathered together, and now the wolves and tigers are fighting for food..."
Fei Qian gave Cui Hou some time to digest, and then went on to say: "If we were relatives in the past, their roots were in Luoyang, even if they wanted to retreat, they had no choice but to fight to the death in Luoyang City, but now
It’s different, now the dove tigers in Luoyang are basically in Guanxi!”
"... Now wolves are swarming in. Although the dove tiger is fierce, it is inevitable that it will lose sight of one thing in Luoyang. Therefore, it is also a good idea to return to the west to its home base... But if the dove tiger retreats to the west, will it easily take this piece of plump meat?
Can’t you give it up to a pack of wolves?”
The more Cui Hou listened, the colder he felt all over, and he couldn't help but shudder.
Fei Qian looked at Cui Hou and said: "These two expeditions have already revealed all the plans... Moreover, on the way to Qian, I heard that he was digging for gold in Beimang Mountain. This is undoubtedly the result of the wealthy and powerful families in Luoyang.
, if he intends to live in Luoyang for a long time, how can he do such an extremely unpopular move? Therefore, on the day when Jiuhu returns to the west, he will definitely order all the people in Luoyang to move westward. In this way, he will now own all the land in Luoyang.
It doesn’t matter if all the powerful families have been offended. No matter how strong a rootless tree is, it will only last for a while... But this is the end of Luoyang..."
"West... move west!?" Fei Qian's statement shocked Cui Hou. After all, most of the Cui family's meridians are in Luoyang. Once they move west, it will be no less than cutting the Cui family tree in half.
Even if he survives the catastrophe, his vitality will definitely be severely damaged, and he may never recover from the fall. He will not even be able to be a second-rate family and can only survive. If there is no chance, maybe the Cui family will become the leader of Guizhou...
Cui Hou suddenly looked at Fei Qian with hope and said, "Brother Xian came here this time, but you have a good plan? If you need the Cui family, just ask."
It has to be said that the Cui family's business talent did give Cui Hou sharp intuition, but Fei Qian's answer made Cui Hou face the cold reality again -
"To be honest... the situation now is a foregone conclusion, like an arrow on the string, it's just a matter of time..." Indeed, Fei Qian's more than 100 people, even if he adds some people from Cuijiazhuang, can't stand it.
There are more than a thousand people, and such a small amount of manpower is fighting to the death, which is just a small wave, and it cannot stop the overall situation...
Moreover, it was because Cui Hou had a good relationship with Fei Qian and knew some of Fei Qian's deeds that he was willing to listen and think about it from the bottom of his heart. However, these powerful families in Luoyang, even if they are informed from now on, may not be able to do so.
Everyone will believe what Fei Qian says.
"I am quite familiar with several nearby aristocratic families. If we join hands together...well, plus the Xiandi Fei family, I will try to win over other aristocratic families outside Luoyang City. The Xiandi Fei family will also seek contact in the city. In this way, we can work together both internally and externally.
Can't we fight for a chance of survival?" Cui Hou clenched his fists and looked at Fei Qian expectantly.
"If we can solve three problems, we can give it a try - firstly, we must have enough time, secondly, we must work together to advance and retreat together, and thirdly, we must at least be able to withstand one round of the dove tiger's attack.
kill……"
What Fei Qian said are the most basic problems, but these problems are also the most difficult problems. According to the current situation, neither Fei Qian nor Cui Hou can solve any of these three problems.
"..." Cui Hou was silent for a long time, and finally left the table and bowed to Fei Qian, saying in a low voice, "... Dear brother, the Cui family can't just give up... My dear brother, you have a good idea, and I hope you will give me some advice!"
Fei Qian supported Cui Hou and said: "I can only take one step at a time... If it is a stable strategy, one is to get closer to the people in the city and go west first to seize the opportunity; the other is to take advantage of the opportunity east of the river.
The road is not blocked yet, go north to meet your brother..."
Going to Kansai?
Cui Hou didn't even think about it. After all, it was Dong Zhuo who caused this situation. He was asked to kneel before Dong Zhuo. He couldn't get over it no matter what. Even if he was willing to endure the humiliation and bear the burden, could other members of the Cui family agree to support him?
It's such a big problem that it might fall apart immediately.
Going to Xihe?
Even if he moved his family to Cui Jun in Xihe, let alone whether he could get used to the land and water after moving there, Cui Hou alone would probably have to hand over all the power of speech to Cui Jun and become Cui Jun's vassal from then on. Such a result
How can Cui Hou, who has been struggling for so many years, accept it with peace of mind?
Cui Hou thought about it and asked with a grimace: "Brother Xian...these two...well, I wonder if there are any other good strategies?" After all, Fei Qian just said it was a stable strategy, and there must be higher risks.
The plan...
"Brother Yongyuan, why can't the Cui family become one of the top business tycoons?" Fei Qian suddenly asked a seemingly irrelevant question.
"Ah? Well, I'm afraid... lack of financial resources?" Cui Hou said.
Fei Qian shook his head.
"Inherited through generations?"
"Perhaps there is, but it is not complete." Fei Qian said, "In fact, the biggest difference is reputation! If a place is famous, it is a famous merchant in that place, and if it is famous in a state, it is a first-class merchant in the Han Dynasty. If it is famous all over the world,
, then he must be one of the top business tycoons in the world, rich as a country! The Chunqiu Tian family, the pre-Qin Lu family, might as well be like this!"
Fei Qian continued: "If Brother Yongyuan intends to let the Cui family gain fame in the world, I have another plan...but I'm afraid there will be some risks..."
Businessmen who dare to invest and are willing to continue to invest, although they may fail repeatedly, often only need one successful investment to not only recover their previous costs, but also make substantial profits.
Moreover, for businessmen, the reason why many people like to chase fame is that they hope to have a protective halo around themselves. After all, as one accumulates wealth, many eyes will naturally come to him. If he cannot be protected by powerful people,
Then you have no choice but to invest in people who are engaged in politics, or simply rely on your own reputation to go into business and then become an official...
Therefore, Cui Hou is still very eager for fame. This desire even made him subconsciously ignore the word risk in Fei Qian's words, and eagerly looked forward to Fei Qian's detailed explanation...
