I am a nobleman in Spring and Autumn

Chapter 222 Another First Time in the History of Zhu Xia

The state of Jin used to support the state of Wu very strongly, but that was at least 30 years ago.

Due to the distance between Jin State and Wu State, and the fact that Jin State has its own pride as an old and powerful country, many powerful people may know the names of the people in Wu State, but it is absolutely not sure how much they know.

What is the origin of this Bo Chu?His ancestors were actually from the state of Jin, and they were the famous Que family. Later, due to civil strife in the Que family, some of them fled to the state of Chu and changed to the Bo family.

Ques!One of the former high-ranking families in Jin State once returned one family to three high-ranking families.

In the long history of the Jin State, there are only two families with one family and three "qings", namely the Zhao family and the Que family.

The fate of these two families is very similar, the difference is that the Zhao family was destroyed when there were three "Qings" in one family, and was able to be reestablished later; the Que family was repeatedly plotted by the Luan family, and was subsequently besieged by many families. After the demise, except for the Bo family who fled to Chu State early during the civil strife, all the male clan members in the fifth service of the Que family were exterminated.

So, Bo's family is clearly in the state of Chu, how did Bo Pi become a native of the state of Wu?This also refers to some mysterious operations of the Bo family in the state of Chu, which offended many people. A certain minister of the state of Chu, Yin, personally attacked the Bo family, and Bo Pi fled to the state of Wu.

Bo Pi was an official in the state of Wu in the era of Helu, but he was really valued in the era of Fucha.

"Sure enough, Wu Guo is not completely unaware that Chu and Yue are engaged in smuggling. This guy may play a very important role in it, and is most likely one of the umbrellas for smuggling?" Zhiyao faced Bo Pi's hint , I understood a lot of things at once.

In other words, how could Bo Pi have the guts to ask Zhiyao for protection money?
No matter how strong the state of Jin was, or in other words, the Zhi clan was strong, but the state of Jin was too far away from the states of Wu and Yue.This is one of the reasons why Bo Pi has the courage to raise protection fees.

Then there are other factors. Bo Chu may be used to being arrogant in that corner, forming a fixed thinking, firmly believing that he has the final say in that corner, and even the Zhi family of Jin State cannot be exempted.

Facing blackmail... From Zhiyao's point of view, it is blackmail, but from Bo Chu's point of view, it is a necessary procedure. Anyway, everything has two sides.

Anyway, that was the situation, Zhiyao wouldn't pull out his sword to kill Bo Pi, let alone yell at Bo Pi, just staring at Bo Pi with a smile, making Bo Pi's heart tremble.

Not really, really not.

How can the rich and powerful be like ruffians or gangsters? If they really want to kill someone, the people under their hands will not be raised for nothing, right?
"Are people from Jin awesome? It seems to be true. People from Jin are awesome. But... people from Wu are not bad now, are they? Besides, everyone has to pay a fee, and I didn't raise the price." Bo Chu I feel very wronged in my heart.

One thing, even if the Bo family fled to Chu State, they were still proud of the strength of Jin State. Perhaps it was because of this mentality that they were a bit out of place with other nobles in Chu State?

In Bo Pi's generation, he knew that his ancestors were from Jin, so he should have no sense of belonging?

Bo Pi was a little timid, smiled a little, and left on his own, without even saluting goodbye before leaving.

Powerful, whispering softly will make others listen carefully.

Of course, Zhiyao is not an unruly person, it’s just that Bo Pi’s brain is obviously twitching. For similar matters, send someone to negotiate with Zhi’s middle management. .

"Does he not understand? He must understand. I guess it happened today, and I just couldn't bear the greed in my heart." The information in Zhiyao's hands showed that Bo Pi was extremely greedy and especially lustful.

No one asked what Zhiyao and Bo Pi were talking about just now.

Everyone is very busy now, so we seize the rare opportunity to meet and talk about our respective affairs.

Furthermore, who chatted with whom was either a private matter or a family matter, even the monarch was not qualified to intervene.

Everything about Wei Hua's funeral was in line with what he deserved. The whole funeral took nearly two months, and if nothing unexpected happened, Wei Ju would stay in "Wei" for at least three months.

After the funeral, those who were not from the Wei family dispersed.

Zhiyao and Zhishen embarked on the journey to "Zhi" land together. The main reason is that "Zhi" land is not far from "Wei" land. "Wisdom" to visit the elders in the clan, care for the juniors in the clan, and try our best to show the worldly sophistication that a big family should have.

Later, the father and son went to the "Xun" land, and the people who visited became a group of people from the Xun family and the Zhongxing family.

The Zhi family had its own ancestral land after the generation of Zhifu. For example, Zhifu was buried in the "Zhi" land.

Zhiyu's parents and above are buried in the "Xun" land.

Therefore, after the Zhi family merged with the Zhongxing family, it actually had two "capitals", namely "Zhi" and "Xun".

It is precisely because Zhifu was not buried in the "Xun" land that the fact that the Zhi family separated from the Xun family happened.

Zhiyao took Zhongxing Qi with him in the "Xun" land, and then returned to "Xintian".

After a series of walks, they returned to "Xintian" and it was already the beginning of spring.

The facts are also as people know, the people who came to Wei Hao's funeral all gathered in "Xintian", Maodong and other things are secondary, and socializing as soon as possible is the serious thing.

Don't think that nobles can talk about such high-end things. Most nobles usually socialize, and what they do most is barter, and there are very few political fields.

What kind of nobles don't do business?Now the aristocrats don't do business, who will produce materials!
"Qi's purchase of cloth has increased sharply?" Zhiyao returned to 'Xintian' and was a little surprised to get the report.

It's not that it's strange for Qi to buy cloth from Zhishi as a big textile country. The fact is that Qi has always bought cloth from Zhishi. The stronger Jin is, the more Qi buys, and vice versa.

Qi Guo is very good at playing. They bought cloth from Zhi Shi, but they couldn't use it themselves, and they couldn't get it to sell in the market.

Is this approach familiar?In fact, Guan Zhong once played it and left it to Qi State as a kind of intellectual wealth. Similar gameplay is still an extremely high-end business method even in modern times.

To put it bluntly, it is impossible for the Qi State not to purchase cloth from the Zhi family, so they simply spend money to eliminate the disaster, and seal the cloth purchased from the Zhi family in a warehouse. The market share of other cloth merchants in the country is very likely to open more channels for Zhishi in the cloth market.

The modern business model is really understood by Qi Guowan. Once he understands that once customers use a certain merchant's products and become a habit, it will form a brand dependence.

What surprised Zhiyao was not that Qi State suddenly increased its procurement share, but that Qi State was a bit out of control and wanted to spend money to buy peace.

"Who handled it?" Zhiyao asked.

Taihu replied, "It's the Prime Minister of Qi."

Tian begging?That means a little more to show.

Zhiyao frowned and said, "It's an ancient practice for the Tian family to use public wealth for private interests. How can others do what they want?"

I'm not joking, Tian Qi is probably the first person who knows how to use state-owned property to buy people's hearts. He was stopped by Yan Ying before, and now he has started to go back to his old business.

Taihu simply replied: "My family still has a 'teacher' in 'Cui'."

So, Tian Qi handled the matter clearly, even if it was for private use, and he could show his favor to Zhishi, other people would not be able to say anything wrong.

Later, Zhiyao checked the "family log", and saw one of the expenditures in the Wu country, and raised her brows.

The matter was handled by Expo Road, and approved by Zhishen's seal, the expenditure items were used to bribe Bo Chu.

In fact, it's really not a big deal, it's nothing more than part of the rules.

If the rest of the families want to pass through the Zhi Clan's sphere of influence, they also need to leave "buy road money", the difference is in what name they use.

A unique landscape would be formed only when Bo Pi went to battle in person.

"Bo Pi has a great use value, especially because I want to influence the outcome of Wu and Yue." Zhiyao knew very well that Bo Pi played an important role in the contest between Wu and Yue.

It is purely a matter within the scope of the rules. Zhiyao will not have the idea of ​​killing Bo Pi because of the benefits given by Zhishi, and making full use of it is the idea that an adult should have.

If it is true that collecting protection fees will be killed, how many people would want to kill Zhishen?
After all, Zhishi received much more protection fees than Boshi.

Who made Wu Guoshi really tremble?Now Bo Pi is also eligible to receive protection fees, it just depends on when he can receive them.

Of course, Bo's method of collecting protection fees is different from that of Zhi's. Bo Pi still has to hide it from Fucha or other people, and Zhi's collection of protection fees is called that upright.

For example, Zhiyao just passed the matter of increasing the purchase of cloth from the Qi State. In fact, it is also a kind of protection fee that the Zhi family collects from the Qi State. .

It was Tian Qi's idea to not need to deliver goods, and he knew how to play more than his predecessor.

Zhiyao didn't know that Wu Guo created another Zhuxia for the first time in history until she received the information in spring.

The thing is that Fu Chai sent a navy out of the river, approaching the sea route to invade Qi, and it was still a landing battle.

Seeing this piece of information, Zhiyao was stunned!
Really!

Don't be stupid!

Wu Guo's navy is very powerful. In the past, they repeatedly taught Chu's navy to be a man in Dajiang, but they don't have large ships, right?
According to Zhiyao's understanding, the largest boat in Wu State is ten meters long, and it is a flat-bottomed boat.

Going closer to the sea, although the water waves are not as big as the outer sea, the key point is that the boats of Wu State are flat-bottomed boats, and the boats are actually smaller, so it is not safe to encounter small waves.

The information sent did not mention how much Wu's navy had lost, nor did it mention how many cities Qi had lost. It was just that Qi was frightened enough by Wu's navy's landing by sea.

Not to mention the monarchs and ministers of the Qi State, Zhiyao, who had nothing to do with herself, was taken aback.

"All kinds of games are really played by Fu Chai!" Zhiyao began to admire Fu Chai a little bit, really!
　Dear friends, Sapogun is begging for a monthly ticket!
