Let's talk about the dispute between Wu and Yue, when Wu Wang Shoumeng began to rise up with the support of the overlord Jin State at that time, and confronted the Chu State. The rise of the State of Wu brought a huge threat to the State of Chu, which made the State of Chu have similar thoughts to get rid of the embarrassment of "no year without Master Wu".

In order to contain Wu from behind, Chu also began to support the Yue State, and the Yue State was almost destroyed at that time, and only one descendant, Yun Chang, was a businessman and an eye-catching capable person, who was partnering with Duanmu Ju to do business at that time.

Yun Chang, this old man, was ambitious, and after getting the support of the Chu State, he transferred all the business to the Duanmu family and co-founded the Fun Zhen Pavilion, and this Yun Chang entered the dark stocks, all of which were Duanmu Ju's dark stocks, and he became the master of the Yue Kingdom, and the Wu Yue hegemony began from then on.

As for the treasury of the Yue Kingdom, in fact, it is all empty, and all the funds are traveled around the Eastern Zhou Dynasty through the True Pavilion. All administrative expenses are also regularly withdrawn from the Fun Pavilion, and all this is not known to outsiders, so what good is it?

That's a big deal! When Wu and Yue fought for hegemony, Wu Guo won, Yue Guo's treasury has no money, it is empty, there is nothing, except for the labor and money, Wu Guo can not get anything, the reverse is different, Yue Guo won, Wu Guo's treasury reserve funds are more! This Wu State was very well prepared, and he was worried that the recruits would not have enough food and clothing, and what they wanted, so Yue Guo sent people to transport the gold, silver and jewelry that he had not received overnight to Yuzhen Pavilion, and then returned to all parts of the Great Zhou.

Wu Guo Wu Zixu also thought about why every time he defeated Yue Guo, he couldn't get any benefits, except for occupying some land? However, after thinking about it carefully, I thought that it was not long before the founding of the Yue Kingdom, and it was nothing that people were poor and short-minded, not to mention that they had always rebuilt the Yue Kingdom from more than 100 people, and it was natural that there was no money! I won't go into any more detail.

This Yunchang and Duanmu Ju have a private agreement, the dividends are agreed by a complete set of two parties, and secondly, the silver of the treasury is also completed by two agreements on storage and investment, which is more complicated, these are all handled by the two of them, in addition to the Duanmu family is the largest owner, there are also Shi Yujia and Liu Wei family have Ming shares, and neither of them knows about this private agreement between Yunchang and Duanmu Ju!

Zigong and Xiao Manniu were originally married to both parties, but in order to cover up the close relationship between the two parties, they sent Xiao Manniu to Shi Yu, and then they developed freely, but the parents of both sides knew the specific details! Even Yun Chang wanted to hide that this little barbarian girl was his daughter, and he didn't want too many people to know that the little barbarian girl was the princess of Yueguo, even if the marriage was not very special, but the banquet for receiving Zigong was very grand.

These practices laid the foundation for Zigong to lobby Wu in the future and hang the seal of Wu, and also completed the seal of the Eight Kingdoms without hindrance in the future.

Next, let's talk about the history of Wu, after the king of Wu Lu ascended the throne, he defeated the Yue State and seized the Taihu Plain of the Yue State, and moved the capital from Zhenjiang to Gusu City. Under the governance of King Wu Lu, he continued to grow stronger and began to become the overlord of the Central Plains. In the fourteenth year of King Jing of Zhou (506 BC), King Lu of Wu, with the assistance of Wu Zixu, Sun Wu and other famous generals, defeated the Chu army in the Battle of Baiju and attacked the capital of Chu.

In 496 BC (the twenty-fourth year of King Jing of Zhou), but in eight years, King Wu Lu planned to destroy Chu, and first of all, he would destroy Yue. At this time, Yue Wang Yunchang had died of illness for nearly a year, and he was succeeded by Buyjian, which was not reliable!

Yue Guo is only a hundred miles away, it is very difficult to defeat the king of Wu, Zigong understood the situation, arrived with the little man, and Gou Jian, Zigong and the little manniu went to the rear of Wu, rushed to buy grain and grass, and spent a lot of money to buy tun on the border of Wu and Chu, so that the war of Wu had no grain and grass to follow, and Goujian, the king of Yue, did not move, empty the opponent's money and grain, and then used the thief to capture the king, and sent the dead to the front of the battle to commit suicide tactics.

Wu Guo is the god of war Sun Wu, Sun Wu is a famous general in the world and the author of "Sun Wu's Art of War", while Yue Guo is Gou Jian and Linggufu personally led troops to line up in Yu Yu (zuì) Li.

Goujian, the king of Yue, was ambitious and wanted to become famous and show his talents, so he reorganized the army and military in the country, accumulated national strength, and waited for the opportunity. There were two battles of Li, the first of which was when Wu planned to weaken the Yue before the invasion of Chu, so he sent troops to attack Yue. The Wu army was invincible under the command of Sun Wu, and in addition to defeating the Yue army on the battlefield, the Wu army "plundered back" in the Yue country. It opened the curtain of the thirty-seven-year life-and-death struggle between Wu and Yue. "Wu Yue Chunqiu" is described as:

For five years, King Wu did not attack Chu from the more he did, and he invaded more from the south. Yue Wang Yun often said: "Wu does not believe in the alliance of the day before yesterday, abandons the country of tribute, and destroys his relatives." "If you don't say it, you will cut it down and break it.

The second battle of Li Li is this battle, and Zigong is indispensable to defeat Wu!

Zigong and Xiao Manniu carefully caught and grinded before the war, if they want to move the national capital of Wu, this food is necessary, the money can be used less, but the food can't be eaten? One can endure not spending money, but one cannot bear not to eat or drink! But how to do big things with little money, this trick is really difficult!

Once a large amount of grain is purchased in Wuguo, the price will definitely rise, how can we control the price not to rise, eat at a low price, and then sell at a high price is the basis of profit. First of all, we have to bring down the price of grain in Wu.

So Zigong first sent people to the major cities of Wu to release false news, saying that the price of harvest grain in the Jin Kingdom had plummeted, and sold it at half price in the major cities in the name of Zigong, with a clear price, but the quantity was limited, and only a thousand catties of surplus grain were sold every day, and the queue was full of their own secret guards to rush to buy, which was equivalent to knocking! It is the usual method of stock speculation.

Of course, the people have the opportunity to buy, but there are very few, but this has a beginning, the people feel that there is cheap grain for sale, and they are not in a hurry to buy, most of the grain merchants in Wu can not sell the grain, the people would rather line up to buy Zigong, than buy the local grain merchants, other local major grain stores also have to sell at a reduced price, and the little manniu is ashamed to buy all at a price of six discounts.

This is also the first time that the little barbarian girl has seen Zigong's means, the price of grain in Wu has plummeted within a few days, regardless of whether there is grain or not, they are all eager to sell, especially grain merchants, all of whom are sold at a discount, I really think that the grain of Jin is really as legendary, it is really abundant, in fact, Jin and Wu are as bitter as they are not harvested!

In the neighboring Jin Kingdom, Fan Li and Yue Nu were also busy, doing the same thing, all the funds came from the real pavilion, and the two senior sisters and brothers of the little barbarian were the ones who collected the grain and suppressed them.

The price of grain soared, and the lord of Wu was so happy that he ran in circles all over the house, really thinking that the price of grain was going to fall, which was conducive to raising grain before the expedition, and he was still waiting for it to drop again and again, and he was not in a hurry to prepare for military rations, and at this time, the grain and grass purchased by Gouhuan were continuously transported to the border of Wu and Chu, and there was no food to raise after a month.

The king of Yue tried to recapture the Li and sent nearly 10,000 people to attack the Li, Zigong quickly sat on the Kunpeng to stop: "I said brother, this Li can't be attacked, it's not that it won't be attacked, but it's not the time, now that Wu is short of food, and we can't raise grain and grass, we will wait to kill the time until they are so hungry that they are dizzy, and then take the next step to capture the thief and capture the king!" At that time, Li Li was complacent without attacking. ”

Gou Jian thought for a while, felt that this plan was also right, saw Zigong's continuous transport of grain and grass to support, his heart was not happy, busy sitting in the city and Zigong carefully planned, after a month of rectification, felt that the three battalions had gone through the previous march and the battle, and had long been tired, so he ordered to defend the city wall, and it was strictly forbidden to fight.
