Chapter 533: The Temptation of the Night Pearl

"I got it from the west through a friend from the Qin Kingdom, and this kind of night pearl is produced there. It glows well and is said to have healing properties. Lu Buwei introduced as he walked.

"Can it still heal?" Wei Guogong asked in disbelief.

"It is said! There's a magnetic ...... on it."

As for what magnetism is, Lü Buwei can't say. It must be radioactive, right? Anyway! Good for the human body. Because the ancients could not explain it, Lü Buwei could not explain it clearly. In a word: the night pearl produced in the Western Regions has a certain medical value.

"Magnetic?"

"I can't tell! I listened to them, too. Only the big night pearl has a therapeutic effect. But! A healthy person can't be carried around for a long time. ”

"Huh? What's going on? ”

"Healthy people who have been with them for a long time will get sick."

"Also? And what's going on? ”

Lü Buwei explained: "Maybe? It's just as bad as eating too much good food for your body! For example! If you eat too much meat, it will not be good for your health! Some people have diarrhea when they eat too much flesh, right? ”

"Oh?" Wei Guogong felt that it made sense and responded.

"The small pearl of the night has no obvious therapeutic effect, but! Nor can it be left with you for a long time. Wei Guogong! I listen to them! It is good for the body to put the night pearl of this material in a special room and go in and play with it occasionally. And that's it! If you are sick, you can go in and meditate for a while every day, and it can be curative! ”

"Oh?"

"Or! At night, take it out and put it in the living room as a lamp, and then collect it when it is dawn. Such! The living room during the day still retains the medicinal value of the night pearl! ”

"Oh?" Wei Guogong responded. Then he asked, "That?" What about the nine pearls of the night that you have prepared? ”

When Lu Buwei heard this, his expression changed, and then he explained: "I haven't gotten it yet!" Where can I buy such a valuable thing at once? Isn't it? I'm also worried that someone will cheat out of money? So! I told this friend of Qin to buy them one by one. Isn't it? These nine are already on their way to the country. When the time comes! We are one hand to pay and one hand to deliver! I gave them the lacquerware of the country, and they gave me the pearls of the night one by one! Isn't it? ”

When Wei Guogong heard this, he said regretfully: "I thought it was already in your hands!" ”

"Where? If it's in my hands, why don't I bring it to you? ”

"Alas!" Wei Guogong sighed.

I thought: the result is empty joy!

"It's coming! Soon! Wei Guogong! Lu Buwei hurriedly said with relief.

I thought: Even if there is, I won't give it all to you at once! Gave it to you all at once, do you remember me? I'll just give slowly, in batches!

And also! It's past my hands, can I not play with it?

Although I, Lu Buwei, have something to ask you for, I'm not so stupid!

"Oh?"

"They want our patriotic lacquerware, so! Willing to take the night pearl to exchange with us. I've heard! They got it from the merchants in the Western Regions, and it didn't cost much! For the people over there, the night pearl is not a treasure? ”

"Isn't the Night Pearl a treasure?"

"Yes! Back to the words of the Duke of Weiguo! For the people in the Western Regions, food, food, clothes and other necessities of life are what they value most and what they actually need! ”

"Oh?" Wei Guogong nodded, and then nodded in disbelief.

Oh, yes! You don't even have food to eat, what else do you need for the night pearl? Can the pearl of the night fill your belly? Opposite! There's a good chance you'll lose your life.

"For those who live in the desert, water is often more important than the food they eat. Without water, they will all die of thirst! ”

"Oh! Oh! After Wei Guogong understood, he couldn't stop responding.

Come and sit down in the living room, and the Weiguo public horse arranges the kitchen to prepare wine and food.

"Prepare some food and drinks first, right away! Instantly! I want to drink and talk with Lu Zi! Wei Guogong explained in a special way.

"Yes!" The men of his men hurriedly agreed and went to prepare.

As the guest of honor of Wei Guogong, Lü Buwei naturally sat in the position of the guest secretary and entertained him with the highest courtesy.

Here in Wei Guogong, everything is very exquisite. Wei Guogong is a big man, a nobleman of the country, and a nobleman with power. So! His rank is conceivable.

One person has a case, Wei Guogong's case is in the middle of the high platform, and Keqing's position is on the front side of his position. On the high platform, there are seats for other cronies and other distinguished guests. In the hall below the high platform, desks and seats are placed on both sides. These seats are occupied by other guests and subordinates.

One word! Only the most distinguished guests were allowed to sit on either side of the high platform in front of the Duke of Weiguo.

And also! There is another advantage of sitting on the high platform, that is: if Wei Guogong whispers to the guest secretary and distinguished guests, the ordinary guests under the high platform will not be able to hear it.

It is precisely for this reason that the Son of Heaven, kings, and powerful people all have high platforms. They sat on a high platform, and under the high platform sat ordinary guests and subordinates. Only in this way can the Son of Heaven, kings, and magnates on the high platform whisper and discuss anything, and the people in the audience cannot hear it.

If something important is to be announced, there is another "messenger" to convey it. The messenger is like the old eunuch next to the emperor in movies and TV series, which is specially used to convey words.

"Lu Zi came over this time, there should be something else, right?" Wei Guogong is a good person, so he naturally knows: Lu Buwei has nothing to do but ascend to the Three Treasures Palace.

Since he came, he took the initiative to show favor to him and promised to send the night pearl, he must have something to ask for.

"Nope! No! I'm here to visit you, old man! Let me tell you about it: open a warehouse! Isn't it? Things are going well with the warehouse, and a third of the places have already opened the warehouse. Elsewhere, they all took the initiative to contact me after getting the news. So! Our warehouses will soon be open all over the country! Lü Buwei said.

"Oh! Good! Wei Guogong nodded and said, "Have you encountered any difficulties?" You tell me! I'll figure it out! In the Patriotic Nation! I still have something to do with it! They still have to give me more or less the face of this patriotic public! ”

"Yes!" Lü Buwei responded.

"I support you to open a warehouse in the territory of the country, not entirely for your own selfish interests, but mainly for the economic development of the country! Weiguo is a small country, if there is no economy, then how can it survive? And also! Only when the Wei Guo does business with the merchants of the various vassal states of the Great Zhou Dynasty, will the other vassal states not directly attack our Wei Guo. The consequence of attacking our country is that the interests of these merchants will be affected! Isn't it? Lu Zi? Wei Guogong asked.

"Yes, yes, yes!" Lü Buwei replied in response.
