After hearing what Xu Qing said, the wise king smiled and said: "You are indeed a monkey spirit."
Xu Qing said: "What you said is so obvious. If I still can't guess it, then I won't be the president of the National Business Academy and just sell candied haws on the streets."
The wise king said, "You are the pillar of my Chu Kingdom. Wouldn't it be a waste of talent if you went out to sell candied haws on a stick? There are not many people I admire in this life. General Long is one of them, and you are one of them."
When Xu Qing heard this, he waved his hand and refused: "No, no, no, how can I compare with your General Long? I don't dare."
The wise king smiled and said: "General Long has been upright and upright in his life and does not care about fame and fortune, but he is not as cunning and changeable as you, who only lives for money."
Xu Qing sighed and said, "I can't do it without money."
The wise king said: "Silver is not omnipotent."
Xu Qing spread his hands and said: "I didn't expect it to be omnipotent at first. Besides, if even silver is not omnipotent, then nothing is omnipotent."
The Xian King glanced at Xu Qing and said: "You are full of crooked ideas, but have you finished guessing the plan in my mind?"
Xu Qing was surprised when he heard this, "Is there more?"
King Xian said: "Do you think this king asked you to hold back the grassland envoy because he really only wanted to do it for the Zhou Kingdom?"
Xu Qing pursed his lips and didn't know how to answer, but based on his understanding of the wise king, things would definitely not be that simple.
The wise king is an old fox, cunning and hearty. How could an old fox get such a kind heart?
How about doing good things to the Zhou Kingdom that we just fought with?
The wise king is famous for not being able to afford early benefits.
The King Xian continued: "As you just said, our Chu State does not dare to directly send troops to conquer now because the national treasury is empty. Now our Chu State has three sources of income, your Guo Shang Yuan, the imperial household department and the Zhou State
If you delay them for a while longer, the Ministry of Revenue will be able to get the first quarter's tax revenue, and the Guo Shang Yuan will be able to earn more money from the world. The most important thing is that the first batch of Zhou Guo's compensation will arrive.
At that time, the national treasury will no longer be as stretched as it is now."
"At that time, will our Chu country still worry about not having enough money to send troops? Now the grassland is just tentatively bringing the few elites closer. As long as you master the strength of the negotiation, the process will become smoother and smoother.
They will naturally take it lightly, and if we delay for a long time, Wan Yanxiong's impatience will be unable to restrain himself, and he will move his troops closer to the Zhou Kingdom. As long as we sign the peace talks with the Grassland, the Grassland will definitely send troops to the Zhou Kingdom immediately."
"At this time, our opportunity has come. We can just find an excuse to overturn the negotiation table, and even the barbarians dare to invade our country, haha..."
Xu Qing: "But they seem to be fighting Zhou State."
The wise king waved his hand and said: "The Kingdom of Zhou has been an inseparable part of our great Chu since ancient times! Our dynasty is the orthodoxy of the world! Do you have any opinions?"
Xu Qing shook his head quickly: "No objection... No objection..."
However, no objection, no objection. If nothing else, the Emperor of Zhou thought the same way.
However, he would feel that Chu State has been an integral part of their Zhou Dynasty since ancient times...
But the more Xu Qing thought about it, the more something was wrong. He looked at King Xian and said, "Isn't it a little too hasty for the prince to inform his ministers of such a plan?"
The wise king waved his hand and said: "It doesn't matter, I think you are too lazy to tell others."
Xu Qing's expression was a little unnatural when he heard this, but it seemed that what he said was true...
The wise king continued: "By the way, aren't you good at doing business? When the mission comes, you can make as much as possible."
Xu Qing pursed his lips and said: "No, the grassland envoy came here to form an alliance and not to negotiate peace. This...how do you ask me to make money from this?"
But the wise king said with his hands behind his back: "I don't care, you think of a way."
Xu Qing said in disbelief: "You will almost send troops when the grassland mission returns, right? At this juncture, you come to take advantage of others?"
The wise king said matter-of-factly: "It's precisely because we can't fish for it once the war starts, so I'm asking you to fish for it now!"
Xu Qing: "..."
Who will say that he is the number one profiteer in Chu State in the future? Who will he be anxious about?
If you make money yourself, you should be conscientious. Those are real goods and sold for real.
Make sure to give enough and make sure there is no deduction.
If you fake it, you’ll pay ten!
Where is the wise king?
What does he think about every time?
A white wolf with empty gloves!
It's nothing to be a white wolf with nothing, the most important thing is that after he is done with it, he also wants to make other people's country prosperous.
This kind of person can no longer be described as shameless!
If he didn't have a quirky, generous and lovely daughter, a shameless person like Xu Qing would be ashamed to be with this person!
Xu Qing was very curious, what kind of environment could breed such a profit-seeking and shameless soul?
…
Xu Qing, who rolled his eyes countless times in his mind, walked down from the pavilion to go to the Firearms Department to supervise the construction of telescopes.
Although today's bombardier vehicles have no problem hitting a dozen military formations and other land targets, they do have some shortcomings in dealing with grasslands.
The grasslands are rich in good horses. Unlike the coordinated battles between infantry, cavalry and bows in the Central Plains, cavalry accounts for the majority.
It has excellent maneuverability and is very fast whether charging or retreating.
When they came to grab food in winter, they had actually escaped the thunder that was thrown at them. Only a few unlucky ones were frightened by the roaring sound like thunder. In addition, the horses on the grassland were shocked.
The gang members had never experienced thunder before, and the sound of thunder that fell on their ears also frightened them, so they fled in a hurry.
To deal with the prairie cavalry, it is not enough to simply rely on one pair of eyes to control the distance. You must use a telescope to first determine their position in the distance, then calculate and predict their charging distance, and finally launch bombs to cause effective damage.
This matter can be regarded as a confidential military matter, so Xu Qing directly handed it over to the Firearms Department to build it. This is a bomb delivery vehicle, and the eyes of the artillery that will be used on the battlefield in the future are also the eyes of the entire Chu army. There is no room for sloppiness.
Sumen's enrollment is also going very smoothly. Although it is a merit-based admission, it still recruits nearly a thousand disciples, and this number is still increasing. Xu Qing originally planned to recruit disciples for a month, but now it seems that he will be recruiting in just two days.
You have to stop, otherwise with so many people, accommodation will be a problem.
The appeal of the Wulin leader and Princess Yongle was so terrifying that in just a few days, the number of students enrolled exceeded the number of most sects in the world, and this was under the condition of merit-based admissions.
If you don't choose the best, you may not even be able to fit in the big house given by the princess.
As the number of people in the Su family increased, the little girl became more and more arrogant. Now the little princess has a thousand younger brothers with a wave of her hand, so she can't help but be arrogant.
