Chapter 086, Shinong Industry and Commerce, Dong Zhuo worships the prime minister (ask for collection)
Guo Jia happened to meet Lu Bu head-on, and Lu Bu looked puzzled and said, "Fengxiao? This drink is not ......"
Guo Jia smiled meaningfully, "General, don't you understand, doing business pays attention to the long flow, if we feed all these people today, then our business will definitely not be as hot as it is today, we have to hang their appetite, so that there will be more people who come to buy drinks."
Lu Bu understood in seconds, nodded slightly, and then a wicked smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, "Profiteer, profiteer, this is really no traitor, I didn't expect Feng Xiao to be so treacherous."
"The lord laughed, this Shinong businessman, the last of the merchant row, in the Han Dynasty, even if the merchant was rich, after all, he had a low status and was looked down upon by others, if it wasn't for the general, Fengxiao naturally didn't want to show his face here and shout loudly", Guo Jia said with a smile.
Hearing Guo Jia's words, Lu Bu nodded with a deep face.
Although Lu Bu did not read much, he also knew that in the eyes of ancient scholars, businessmen were speculators who could not bring actual value to society, and their status was very low.
On the contrary, most of the wealth of the ruling class comes from the taxes paid by the peasants, so the status of the merchants is not even as good as that of the common people.
Guo Jia patted Lu Bu on the shoulder, "The general doesn't need to think about it, from the moment I, Guo Jia, followed the general, I have already made up my mind, even if I want to throw my head and spill blood for the general, Guo Jia will not hesitate to do it, isn't it not to that point, not to mention that since I have dealt with internal affairs, I have seen more and more clearly, if a county or even a country, if it wants to be strong, it is far from enough to rely on the people to cultivate the land, and it is necessary to develop the economy in order to grow."
This is also one of the reasons why the Shang Dynasty changed the law during the Qin Dynasty to encourage the people to do business.
After a busy day, we drank and chatted, and I prepared a jar of good wine for the general, which was a good wine that had been purified twice, and it was much better than the elixir and jade liquid we sold."
Guo Jia and Lu Bu sat down, and the two chatted about the future direction of economic development while drinking.
Luoyang City, the imperial palace, every late at night, you can see a large number of Xiliang troops rampant in the palace, fornicating palace maids.
Dong Zhuo is self-assured of his high power, holding heavy troops, every morning in the morning, there are Xiliang iron armor standing around, what Dong Thief said is the holy decree, no one dares to disobey.
Lu Zhi, Zhu Xian and others were unwilling to take Dong Zhuo as their company, so they resigned and went into hiding.
The whole palace was full of smoke and sighs, but no one dared to write a book, and before that, several loyal ministers had already fallen to the ground, and their heads hung horizontally above the city gate to see the majesty.
At this time, Dong Zhuo had already worshiped the Taishi, and his position was higher than that of the third duke, but he was not satisfied.
One day, he broke into the palace of the Empress Dowager He, and after some clouds and rain, he asked the Empress Dowager He to crown him as the prime minister, under one person, above ten thousand people.
Empress Dowager He did not allow it, and a quarrel broke out with it, and Dong Zhuo left angrily.
In fact, in the eyes of Empress Dowager He, he hated Dong Thief the most, but Dong Zhuo was powerful, they were orphans and widows, in order to keep the position of the young emperor, they could only be wronged and begged, and they were repeatedly humiliated by Dong Thief.
The next day, Dong Zhuo held a military parade in the square, nearly 10,000 Xiliang troops, plus the Royal Forest Army, and the Xiyuan Army were neatly lined up left and right, holding long knives, fluttering flags, and solemn.
All the officials are mainly scholars, they have always read poetry and books, gentle and elegant, how have they ever seen such a scene, one by one bowed slightly, they were scared and trembled, and their power was even worse than that of the young emperor.
At this time, Dong Zhuo rode high and high, wearing a strong and stubborn head, carrying a scimitar at his waist, Guo Yan and Niu Fu were side by side, followed by more than a hundred flying bear troops, and slowly walked into the school field.
Accompanied by the swing of the pennants on the left and right.
The three armies shouted in unison, "The general is mighty, the general is mighty, the general is mighty."
The sound was like thunder, deafening, and the ears of hundreds of officials were buzzing.
Feeling the power of the 30,000 soldiers, Empress Dowager He's thin body continued to rise and fall.
Lu Bupi stubbornly walked to the front and said in a loud voice, "What does the young emperor think of my 30,000 troops, can I keep the emperor peaceful."
The young emperor's body shrunk into a ball, his body trembled uncontrollably, his face was pale, and his voice was inched, "Yes, yes......"
"Then what does Empress Dowager He think, I, Dong Zhuo, the army of 30,000 tigers and wolves, can I keep the emperor peaceful", Dong Zhuo raised his voice slightly.
Mrs. He was slightly frightened, her body trembled, and a smile appeared on her face, "General Dong Zhuo, the soldiers and horses are strong, and he can protect the peace of the imperial capital."
"That being the case, am I, Dong Zhuo, not worthy of the position of the prime minister", Dong Zhuo roared loudly, his face was hideous, his eyes were wide with anger, like a wild beast, his eyes stared at the Empress Dowager He.
Empress Dowager He was frightened several times, but she was so frightened that she was incontinent, and she hung her phoenix crown in shame.
When Dong Zhuo saw this scene, he became more and more proud, "Haha, why should Empress Dowager He be so nervous, although I, Dong Zhuo, am strong and strong, it is to guard the imperial capital, protect the safety of Empress Dowager He, and protect the safety of the young emperor, naturally I will not move you to move the knife, and you don't have to be afraid."
In the past few days, there have been many people who want to challenge me Dong Zhuo's majesty, if you think that my Dong Zhuo's sword is not good, you can let the horse come."
Empress Dowager He looked at the solemn soldiers on all sides, the sharp and cold long knives, and her heart became more and more frightened.
With Dong Zhuo's current power, even if he kills their mother and son, it is not impossible to replace them, he just wants to worship Xiangguo, why not fulfill him.
His face was strong and calm, and he said loudly, "Since entering the palace, Taishi Dong Zhuo has fulfilled his duties and guarded the safety of His Majesty and the palace, and has made great contributions.
All the officials are shocked, Dong thief wolf ambition, how can he de, the official worships the country,
You must know that Xiangguo is the highest position of the Han courtier, Xiao He served as Xiangguo when Han Gaozu was the emperor, and after Xiao He's death, Cao Shen succeeded him. After Cao Shen, there is no Xiangguo, Dong Zhuo's move, isn't it to say that his merits are comparable to Xiao Cao's.
Xiao Cao and the others are the founding heroes of the Han Dynasty, followed the Han Gaozu to conquer the world, and made immortal achievements.
Seeing that the hundred officials exchanged heads and whispered, Lu Bu turned his head violently, clenched the sword at his waist with his right hand, and said sharply, "What are you dissatisfied with?"
All the officials were quiet, silent, and did not dare to have any dissatisfaction.
At the end of the military parade, the hundred officials were jealous of Dong Zhuo, and every time they saw Dong Zhuo, they would be scared and tremble.
Dong Zhuo's purpose of this military parade is also obvious, naturally it is to give a note of Ma Wei to the hundred officials, let them see their tiger might, and at the same time coerce the Empress Dowager He to worship Xiangguo for his officials.
Since then, Dong Zhuo has entered the palace every night, raped the palace maid, and stayed in the dragon bed at night. Try to lead the army out of the city, to the Yangcheng place, when February, the villagers are in the competition, both men and women gather. Zhuo ordered the soldiers to surround them, kill them all, plunder the women's property, load the cart, hang more than 1,000 heads under the car, and even return the capital, threatening to kill the thief and return with a great victory; They burned the heads of men outside the gates, and scattered the armies with women's goods.
