47, Yingchuan Duoqishi
Xu Kun and Yan Xing sat down in the tent again, and the soldiers who were shocked were extremely efficient this time, and they quickly brought the donkey over. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. biqUgE。 info
Sima Qian once said, "Today's law is a cheap businessman. The merchant has become rich and noble, and respects the farmer. The farmer is already poor and lowly", in the present, the government is sluggish, the laws and regulations are abolished, and the businessmen who are good at drilling can be comfortable among the powerful, hoarding and making huge profits, and even the family of a thousand gold, while the farmer not only has to suffer from natural disasters and wars, but also has to face the tyranny of the government officials and the bullying and embezzlement of the powerful family.
Therefore, although the government decree was to emphasize agriculture and suppress businessmen, most of the merchants Yan Xing saw in the military market were people with elegant clothes and extravagant manners, and they had some background or strength, so they could enter the military market to sit on the ground and raise prices, sell and trade, and make a lot of war money.
But this puppet is different from other businessmen who are well-dressed and extravagant, dressed in a Confucian robe, which is completely different from the dress of a merchant in the market, and his demeanor is quite humble, without that kind of arrogance.
However, Yan Xing already knew in advance that the seemingly elegant and courteous man in front of him was actually a person who used his power to collude with each other, so although he seemed to have a good impression on the surface, he had no sympathy for this person in his heart.
When the soldier was hurriedly pulled over, no matter how he tried to lure him into asking, the soldier still refused to disclose the details, only saying that a military Sima came to the military market today, saying that he had a large pile of goods in his hand to find a buyer, and asked them to find a donkey first.
For this reason, this donkey was naturally suspicious in his heart, and originally wanted to find an excuse to shirk the past, but the soldier who usually treats Qian Bao with a smile as long as he sees it today has no such patience and good temper, and keeps urging the donkey to move forward, until he is brought to the tent, and when he sees Xu Kun waving his hand to retreat, he tends to withdraw from the tent as if he was amnesty.
The servant saw that the soldier who came at the same time saw the two people sitting in the tent like a mouse seeing a cat, he had also been floating in this business sea for several years, and he still had the ability to see people's faces.
But now that he had reached the people in the tent, even if a great calamity was coming, he would have to face it, so the servant immediately fell to the ground, and said respectfully:
"Villain Liu Qiao, meet the two Simas!"
He naturally didn't know who the two people were in this tent, but when he came, the soldier said that there was a Sima in the army who had a goods in his hand to find a buyer, and now there were two people in this tent, and he didn't know who Sima was, and he couldn't lose his courtesy, so he simply bowed his head at the beginning.
Xu Kun was about to have a seizure as soon as Liu Qiao entered the account, and used this incident to intimidate him, so that he could consciously break the fortune and eliminate the disaster, and give a large amount of money to settle today's affairs.
And Yan Xing saw that he behaved quite like a Confucian businessman, and he was also curious in his heart, so he simply glanced at Xu Kun and asked him not to make a noise for the time being, but to speak by himself:
"It turned out to be Liu Jun, get up, sit!"
When Liu Qiaobai fell to the ground, he didn't dare to raise his eyes to look at Xu Kun and Yan Xing who were sitting, and he was also uneasy in his heart, feeling as if there were countless eyes shuttling back and forth on his head.
Now I finally heard someone speak, and the attitude was quite kind, not like he was going to come to Xingshi to ask for sin, and his heart slowly settled down. He got up slowly, looked at Xu Kun and Yan Xing's faces, and said with a smile:
"How dare the villain, just stand still!"
"If you sit down, you can say things if you don't sit."
Although Xu Kun didn't know what Yan Xing's temporary intention was, but since Yan Xing wanted to play the good guy, this wicked man naturally wanted him to play it, so when he saw that this Liu Qiao was delayed, he immediately scolded him.
Liu Qiao was naturally taken aback by the angry Xu Kun, and he didn't know how this person had such a big temper, but he didn't dare to say anything, so he immediately sat down on a mat obediently, lowered his eyebrows, and waited for Xu Kun and Yan Xing's questions.
"Liu Jun doesn't look like a person from the market in this Luoyang, I don't know where he comes from?"
Liu Qiao nodded with a smile and said:
"Sima has good eyesight, the villain is a native of Yingchuan Yangcheng, and this time he came to Beijing to do some small business, as for Sima said that the villain is not like the person in the market, but he looks down on the villain, and the villain has only read the scriptures for a few years, and now he is busy in business."
Hearing that the person who came was from Yingchuan County, Yan Xing suddenly had something to do, and the corners of his mouth smiled, and a flash of color flashed in his eyes.
"Oh, no wonder, Junxiang was originally Yingchuan County, well-although we are from Kansai, we have heard a lot of talented people in Yingchuan. Haha, this is also rare, today's business affairs may as well be postponed, Liu Jun will talk about the talented people in the county for me first. ”
Evaluating the talents of the state and county is the best of the corporals nowadays, Guo Zonglin and Li Ying have passed away, and now the "Erxu" Yuedan evaluation is the most famous. Liu Qiao didn't expect that the military Sima in front of him was not like a rude and rude military man in the military market, although he was burly, but listening to the meaning of his words, he was a vassal and elegant, quite respectful of scholars, and his speech also had a faint Confucian style.
This is not surprising, compared with the founding exploits of the former Han Dynasty, many scoundrels were born, this dynasty has a strong Confucian style, and the founding merits such as Deng Yu, Feng Yi and others are all talents with both civil and military skills, and their speech and demeanor have a Confucian style.
I didn't expect to meet such a character here, Liu Qiao secretly thought in his heart, he was still worried, these arrogant and domineering soldiers were too difficult to get along with, unexpectedly, Sima in this army turned out to be a knowledgeable person, Liu Qiao naturally wanted to do what he liked, he also had some confidence in this originally somewhat suspenseful business transaction, and said with a smile:
"Although the villain is a businessman, he can also be regarded as a person who knows the customs of his hometown, if Sima doesn't blame the villain for being shallow, then the villain will try something for Sima?"
As if he was afraid that Xu Kun, who was sitting next to Yan Xing but didn't have a good face for himself, broke out again, "Let you talk about it, how can you say other things if you don't finish it", he saw that Yan Xing did not refuse, and immediately began to think about it while saying something:
"Yingyin Xun Gong is benevolent, talented, famous in the sea, once recruited, promoted one after another, less than 100 days to the third duke. Xiangcheng Li Gong, Gao Jieshi also, the home is Qingming and Wang, famous Zhou County, after the party is lifted, it is requisitioned by the imperial court as the East Ping Xiang, the people are heavy on agriculture, and the people rely on peace. Changshe Zhong Gong is often the first to be famous, and he is filial piety, and now he is an official in the court, and he is also famous in the county. There is also the Han Gongwen Festival, when the dynasty was the imperial history, the battle festival dared to speak, and now it is the imperial court to be the Jizhou pastor, a party of important ministers, and the name of the county of the state······"
Liu Qiao said in his mind the Yingchuan celebrities he knew and heard when he was doing business, and he picked the most famous and powerful ones at the moment.
Xun Shuang needless to say, I am a famous Confucian, famous at home, after being recruited by Dong Zhuo, he was promoted one after another, and he was promoted to the top of the three princes on the ninety-third day, and the limelight can be said to be unique for a while.
Xiangcheng Li Zhan, his great-grandfather Li Xiuguan to Taiwei, grandfather Li Yi for Zhao Guoxiang, father Li Ying is a famous man in the world, official to Sili Lieutenant, and Chen Fan, Guo Zonglin and others are the leaders of Shilin.
Changshe Zhong Xuan, whose great-grandfather Zhong Hao is also a famous celebrity in the world, and Zhong Xuan himself has been regarded as a genius since he was a child, and now he is a court official who serves as a court lieutenant in the court.
There is also Han Fu, who is also a famous talent in Yingchuan, who was already in the imperial history of the court, and now after Dong Zhuo took power, he was appointed as the pastor of Jizhou, and the state pastor is a big member, and all the affairs of a state are mastered.
Liu Qiao had the intention of currying favor with Yan Xing, and deliberately followed Yan Xing's intentions to find some Yingchuan celebrities who were either famous or powerful to talk to Yan Xing.
It's a pity that Yan Xing didn't seem to like these people, thought about it, and heard Liu Qiao say:
"Are there any other rising talents in Yingchuan?"
"This ······"
Liu Qiao had just said most of the many famous and powerful Yingchuan celebrities that he could remember in his mind, but he didn't expect Yan Xing to be dissatisfied, so he could only hurriedly respond and say, "And, and", and then desperately searched for the people he knew in his belly, and continued:
"Yang Zhai Zhao Jun Boran, Yang Zhai Xin Jun George are all the rising talents of our county, and the names of the counties are all known, in addition to Dingling Du Junzixu, after the famous family, Xuchang Chen Jun Changwen, young and well-known, Xun family gentlemen, such as Xun Zhongyu, Xun Wenruo, Xun Youruo, Xun Gongda, are also famous, talented people······"
When it came to the back, Liu Qiao felt that he had almost finished talking about all the people in Yingchuan, Du Xi, Zhao Yan, Chen Qun, Xun Yue, Xun Yu, Xun Chen, Xun You, and a lot of other celebrities he had heard of came out of his mouth, and he also asked the counties and counties he knew to give them their respective evaluations.
He originally thought that Yan Xing was finally satisfied this time, but he didn't expect Yan Xing to seem to be dissatisfied, although when he heard some names, he would nod slightly in agreement, but he didn't answer after all, which made Liu Qiao's heart suddenly hang, what the hell is this, originally thought that a well-informed military man would be easier to deal with than those arrogant and domineering military men, but now he found that this kind of talent is even more terrifying, rude military man, as long as he obeys his rude requirements, he can still cater to him, but a military official like Yan XingEven if you cater to him, you don't know what he's thinking.
Yan Xing didn't mean to embarrass this Liu Qiao in front of him, being able to name so many famous people and talents proves that this Liu Qiao is not just a businessman who is just greedy for money, and he still has some insight and intelligence.
It's just that the people he said, although they are really talented people, among them, Xun Yu, Xun You and others are even more famous in later generations, but there is a gap between them and the people he thinks in his heart.
After the beginning of spring, Yan Xing was going to Sanfu, but he knew that even if Huangfu Song was successfully recruited into Beijing, this battle against Dong in Guanxi and Guandong was still inevitable.
If you can know more about Yingchuan talents right now.
When the time comes, it will be a cheap matter to take the sheep by yourself, prescribe the right medicine, and recruit some talented people. After all, "the Kanto region is the prime minister, and the Kansai is the general", Yan Xing's subordinates do not lack people who are brave enough to fight in battle, but they lack strategists and other characters who can strategize and win thousands of miles.
Yan Xing can still use Dong Zhuo's prophet who entered Beijing and the princes to fight Dong to plot to grow stronger in the Dong camp, but once Dong Zhuo's camp falls, he will have to face the princes and soldiers of Kwantung independently.
The people Liu Qiao just mentioned are either local officials who have already taken charge of one side, or court officials who have entered the court as officials, or they are families of famous families.
Imagine whether Yan Xing can recruit these people at the moment, it is naturally very difficult, can he use the soldiers and horses in his hands to forcibly recruit them to his command, it is also extremely difficult, just imagine, there is a background like Xun Shuang in the court, how dare Yan Xing force his nephew Xun Yu to serve in his own army.
It is best to be able to recruit some talented people who have no family to rely on or who have not yet become prominent.
With the mentality of giving it a try, Yan Xing continued to ask:
"Have you heard of Guo Jiaqi?"
"Huh?"
"Guo Jia Guo Fengxiao!"
Yan Xing patiently said it again to Liu Qiao in front of him, but looking at the surprised face he showed, it was obvious that Guo Jia was not only not famous at the moment, but could even be said to be obscure, Yan Xing thought to himself, forget it, and when the time came, he would lead his troops out of the east and send someone to look for him.
"Oh, Guo Jun, I don't know if Sima remembered the wrong name, the villain remembers that there are talented people in the county and Guo Jun, who used to be a county official, and is keen on political affairs, so he can be described as a talent——"
Liu Qiao naturally didn't know Guo Jia, but he might as well follow Yan Xing's words and start talking eloquently again, but unfortunately this time he was only halfway through the conversation, Yan Xing shook his head and signaled Liu Qiao not to say it.
Guo Tu naturally knows it, but I'm afraid that at this moment, he has already begun to go north to join his future lord Yuan Shao and Yuan Benchu.
Xu Kun looked at the question and answer between the two with cold eyes on the side, and he was also surprised in his heart, how could Yan Xing, who usually acted decisively, act like this mother-in-law today, didn't he just slaughter a fat sheep who was greedy for ink and make him bleed, why did he still ask so many useless questions.
Who is this Guo Tu, and who is this Guo Jia?
I really don't know what to say.
At this time, seeing that Yan Xing seemed to be impatient with the noise of Liu Qiao, a villain, Xu Kun immediately changed his face and spoke:
"Yanming, Hugh has to talk to him, a businessman who is full of copper smell, how much knowledge can he have!"
"It's-"
Liu Qiao didn't know where he made a mistake in his eloquent remarks, which would make Yan Xing, who was still kind and pleasant just now, dissatisfied, he consciously said it in detail and thoughtfully, even if one or two talented people omission, it is also a human nature, he is just a businessman, and he is not a talented person who has never forgotten and is well-informed.
Seeing that the military official on this building, who had no good temper, had the intention of making a move if he didn't agree with him, Liu Qiao couldn't help but secretly complain in his heart, but based on the words shown by the other military official just now, he deduced that he was a knowledgeable and reasonable officer, like a military official who respects scholars.
Therefore, at this time, if you don't do what you like and show a little bit of scholarly insight and integrity, I am afraid that your own situation will really not be good.
So Liu Qiao hardened his head and began to speak out to protest, although he was uneasy in his heart, he pretended to be calm and calm, and said to Xu Kun:
"What this Sima said is bad, how can it be said that businessmen have no knowledge, Guan Yiwu was young and his friends were businessmen, and he assisted Qi Heng Gongzun Wang Zhengyi, making Qi become the first hegemon among the nations, and Fan Shaobo, his people have repeatedly offered strange schemes, Xingyue and Wu, civil and military all-rounders, after the success of the retirement, it is not the name Tao Zhu, boating into the five lakes, and then when the merchant Jia is born."
After a pause, Liu Qiao secretly glanced at Yan Xing's face before continuing:
"Another example is the former Han Taiwei infant, in the early years to sell silk to make a living, after identifying the master, attached to the wind and clouds, for the country's wings, a very human minister, Sang Hong Yang merchant Jia was born, planning for the country, the line of average loss and equalization of the policy, the treasury is abundant, Emperor Wu defeated the Huns also rely on his strategic work, so, it can be said that the businessman has no knowledge?"
After Liu Qiao saw that Yan Xing did not show annoyance because of his words, he was already determined in his heart, he was engaged in business, and he was originally a person with eloquence, and these words were all learned by him from a well-informed friend, and the argument examples cited by Guan Zhong, Fan Li, Guan Ying, and Sang Hongyang naturally would not be wrong, and for a while, it seemed that he was arguing with reason and aggressive, but Xu Kun was choked and speechless.
In the end, Xu Kun couldn't refute Liu Qiao's example, so he could only snort coldly and said:
"Even if you have a little knowledge, so what, valuing agriculture and suppressing commerce is the foundation of the country, and businessmen can't go on horses to kill the enemy, and they don't feel at ease about farming.
Unexpectedly, Liu Qiao, who had already broken the jar, immediately retorted:
"This is not good, is it beneficial for businessmen and the country? The clothes that Sima wore were woven in the hands of peasant women, but if they were not through the hands of our merchants, could they be worn on Sima? When Emperor Jing of the former Han Dynasty, the frontier was difficult, and the treasury was difficult. As for the businessman's thousands of miles of transfer, hard work, expensive and cheap buying, human nature, and the art of war also have clouds to avoid reality and attack the false, these two are the common points of wisdom and knowledge. ”
At best, he summed it up loudly:
"Merchants work tirelessly, thousands of miles of transit, to pass through the have-nots, so that the local products are abundant, and the people are safe. It can be seen that the world is not a businessman, and although businessmen are lowly, there is no shortage of people who are beneficial to the foundation of the country. ”
Hearing Liu Qiao say this, Yan Xing also had to nod, he is different from most of the people who hold the "heavy agriculture and suppress business", he knows the role of business in promoting the economy and people's livelihood, and many people of insight such as Wang Fu and Cui Wei can also realize the importance of commercial transportation and transportation.
Yan Xing smiled and motioned for Xu Kun not to speak for the time being, and he continued:
"Liu Jun's words are very different from the popular opinions, but they are also conclusive, so that I can't help but feel the same way, Liu Jun, although he is a businessman, but he is really talented!"
Liu Qiao successfully refuted Xu Kun's criticism, and saw that after Yan Xing listened to his words, his face immediately slowed down, and he turned into appreciation again, he immediately knew that he was right this time, this Sima is really a person who respects scholars, as long as he shows the knowledge and integrity of scholars, he can immediately win his favor, it seems that this deal is still done!
Under the pride in his heart, he was also a little fluttering, thinking that these two people were short-tempered and respectful, but they were both military men, how much knowledge they could have, as long as they casually used some of the methods they had learned, they would be able to make these two people obey immediately.
So he borrowed Yan Xing's words and continued:
"Don't dare, although the next study of the scriptures is not successful, but it is also a traveling businessman, see the personnel, once met a stranger to teach Fan Li's learning, his person once said, 'familiar with this, then take the Su Qin gold seal is easy to hear', although the next is reckless, but the practice time, but also boast of a slight success, today Meng Sima Hou looked, so for the two gentlemen to try to say."
Hearing Liu Qiao claim that he had learned from Fan Lizhi, Yan Xing's eyes lit up, and the smile on his face became even bigger, and he said with a smile:
"It turns out that Liu Jun has also learned from Fan Shaobo!"
