Thousand-year-old family: its rise began with Shang Yang’s reforms

Chapter 42: Mantis blocking the car [First update, please collect and read]

No one thought that Zhao State would launch an attack on Wei State.

Even Wei itself did not think of it.

The Kingdom of Wei and the Kingdom of Zhao originally signed a covenant. Although this covenant was not made public, King Wei felt that King Zhao would not do anything to violate the covenant.

After all, the covenant on this matter is quite worthwhile.

But, no matter what, if the State of Zhao launches an attack on the State of Wei, the State of Wei must help, because the State of Wei and the State of Wei are allies, and because the State of Wei now has the idea and intention of dominating.

What if you want to dominate?
  First of all, you must have a strong enough force, and secondly, you must have enough allies.

Apart from these, the most important thing is to conquer the surrounding countries so that they have to agree and support your rule.

A small-scale war soon broke out between Zhao and Wei, and neither king of the two countries seemed to want to make the matter a big deal.

And in this gap, the happiest person should be the Qin State on the border of Wei State.

After Qin Xiaogong learned the news about Zhao's sneak attack on Wei, he laughed three times in the palace and even got drunk for a rare occasion.

In his opinion, this is a symbol of God's blessing on Qin.

After all, Qin State is undergoing reforms. If a powerful country like Wei State is watching closely at this time, this will not be a good thing for Qin State.

Even if the war between Zhao, Wei, and Wei does not last long, it will last at least seven or eight months.

This time was enough for Qin's second reform to be implemented, and even enough for Qin's capital to move to Xianyang City.

Sikou Mansion

Chen Ye sat cross-legged in the mansion, with a very solemn look on his face.

He held a scroll in his hand, which recorded many theories about various schools of thought. This was sent to his residence by Shang Yang before, saying that it was something he had accumulated for a long time and was going to be given to him.

Since he got these scrolls, he has never seen Shang Yang again.

Shang Yang seemed to be avoiding Chen Ye intentionally.

Chen Ye stroked the bamboo slips on the table with his hands. In fact, since the last time they separated at the fork in the road, he knew that Shang Yang had made up his mind to break up with him.

The relationship between him and Shang Yang was not that deep. After all, it had only been a little more than a year since he came to Da Qin.

But Shang Yang was the first person he met after coming to Daqin.

Perhaps people will always have a certain baby complex to some extent, and will trust a person they meet in a strange environment more.

Just like when he saw Shang Yang.

Chen Ye pulled a self-deprecating smile on his lips and looked at the system panel.

By continuously activating some small achievements these days, he has accumulated enough luck points for twenty draws, and he can draw again in the novice stage.

For the novice stage, one draw requires fifty luck points, and twenty draws require one thousand points. However, there is a [-]% discount for the novice stage, which means you only need [-] points.

Chen Ye looked at the system's mall, sincerely hoping that he could trigger the guaranteed first-class props in advance.    Even if he wants first-class props at the moment, it's probably of no use.

[Ding, congratulations to the host for obtaining [Scrap] [Scrap] [Scrap] [Scrap] [Scrap] [Second Grade D·Amulet] [Scrap] [Scrap] [Medium C·Political Credibility*1] [Scrap] [Scrap] 】【Class C, medium·Tongxin】【Class D, lower·hidden weapon】【Class D, lower·brocade robe】【Scrap】】

[[Class C, medium·gold silk armor][Class D, lower·folding fan][scrap][Class C,medium·Political credibility*1][scrap]]

The corners of Chen Ye's eyes twitched slightly as he looked at the various lights that appeared in front of him. At most, they were a variety of props with blue light, but most of them were scraps. He held his forehead and sighed helplessly.

This has already been twenty draws, and the highest-level item drawn is actually the Tongxin among the C-level?

However, he finally pulled out two usable [Political Credibility], and Chen Ye quickly added these two credibility points to his family's attribute points.

For a family that wants to survive for thousands of years, nothing is more important than political credibility.

A very simple example is a sharp contrast between Zhuge Liang's political credibility and Sima Yi's.

If these two people say they want to help you at the same time, even if Zhuge Liang did something you couldn't understand before, as long as you are sure that it is Prime Minister Zhuge, you will not doubt him unnecessarily.

No matter how loyal Sima Yi is and even almost dies for you, you will still guess whether Sima Yi, the old thief, is pretending to be a thief again.

This is political credibility.

The same applies to families.

Chen Ye looked at the attribute panel in front of him with a somewhat relaxed look on his face.

[Family]: Fan’s surname Chen
  【Householder】: Chen Ye
  【Ancestor】: Chen Ye
  【Clan】: None

[Inheritance time]: 1 years

[Political credibility]: 22
  [Reputation]: Qin (respected), Qi (neutral), Yan (ordinary), Chu (ordinary), Han (cold), Zhao (neutral), Wei (cold), Zhou (cold)
  [Props]: [Class C, medium·Concentric] [Class D, lower·Hidden weapon] [Class D, lower·Brocade robe] [Class D, lower·Amulet]*2,.,

[Luck Points]: 0
  Looking at the extremely miserable clan members and luck points, Chen Ye touched his chin.

Now that the crown is about to be crowned, is it time to think about getting married?
  If a family wants to continue, the most basic requirement is to have descendants. After all, what kind of family is it if there are no descendants?
  Heijia Mansion
  Gongzi Qian sat there, looking at Heijia who had a slumped expression in front of him, his head lowered and unwilling to do anything, and he was a little angry: "What on earth do you want to do?"

"Now that Shang Yang's sword is on our necks, you're still not prepared to do anything?"

"Are we really going to wait until Shang Yang implements everything, and then you and I will become completely helpless lambs?"

Heijia said slowly at this time: "Even now, do you and I have the ability to resist?"

He looked outside with a somewhat peaceful expression.

After the incident with the prince, Gongzi Qian did not suffer any retaliation. After all, this incident had nothing to do with Gongzi Qian on the surface, but Hei Jia was attacked by the King of Qin, the prince, Zuo Shuchang, and Sikou Si. Individual joint revenge.

He is just a small nobleman. After the previous revenge, although the family fortune is still there, it is almost scattered, like dead wood.

Heijia looked at Young Master Qian and said, "Now, what you and I are doing is nothing more than a mantis trying to block a car."

"But after leaving this gate, there are many people who are willing to follow you to fight against Shang Yang. Why do you have to hold me back?"
