According to the historical records, in the twentieth year of Zhao Chenghou, that is, in 355 BC, Wei contributed to the construction of the good material Rong Rafter of Zhao State, so it was used to build Tantai.

In fact! These timbers are not from the Wei state, but from the Qin state. In terms of vintage, it's not right either! Marquis Zhao Cheng built the Tantai in the front, and King Wei Hui presented the Rong Rafter in the back.

King Wei Hui has always been: don't take advantage of the cheap!

Someone who is willing to give him timber is stupid if he doesn't want him.

Bai Gui sent people to persuade the nobles of Wei that they would import a batch of good wood from Qin and hope that Wei would be cleared and released. As long as Wei is willing to let go, how many good trees he is willing to give.

Outcome! Those nobles who have a advantage and don't take advantage of the bastards naturally agreed. In order to let King Wei Hui also agree, he was willing to give as much as he wanted to Wei State. King Wei Hui heard that it is wood, and it is the best decorative wood, and it is more! It was given to him for free, so he naturally agreed.

Since it was sent for free, he kept some of it, and the rest was given away.

To whom? Later, he chose Zhao Chenghou of Zhao State.

At that time, Zhao Chenghou was also a bull figure. With the imposition of national power, in order to expand its influence and increase its own popularity, wars broke out from time to time. So! King Wei Hui sometimes didn't dare to go too far with him.

If the two get into a stalemate, if they really fight, they will lose both. Furthermore! He didn't want to fight with Zhao Chenghou. So! Hard when it should be hard, soft when it should be soft. Both hands should be grasped, sometimes hard and sometimes soft. In the vernacular: grab a handful and loosen a handful.

When there is a bargain, grab a handful. When the contradiction is about to intensify, let go again.

"Return to the Lord! The ministers are willing to dedicate their own good wood to Zhao Hou! ”

While the court was deliberating, an old friend of Bai Gyu stood up and said.

Another old minister who was bribed by Bai Gui also stood up and came up with an idea: "Lord! The ministers are also willing to dedicate their family assets to Zhao Hou! ……”

King Wei Hui didn't know what he was doing, his face sank, and he shouted, "Why? ”

"The ministers think: We dedicate to Zhao Hou Liangmu, and then encourage Zhao Hou to build a large number of buildings, we can weaken the comprehensive national strength of Zhao State!"

"The ministers seconded it! Zhao is strong, we can't sit idly by! The State of Zhao is strong, and it directly threatens the hegemony of the Lord! Another old minister stood up and said.

"The ministers seconded it!"

"The ministers seconded it!"

"The ministers seconded it!"

When the other ministers saw the wind and steered the rudder, they all "seconded the proposal".

King Wei Hui thought about it and felt that it was like that: if Zhao Chenghou was to be encouraged to build a large number of buildings, then! can weaken the comprehensive national strength of Zhao.

Thinking of this, he naturally nodded in agreement.

"Good! Immediately send an envoy to Zhao State, lobby Zhao Hou, and let him build a large number of buildings! Hey! They Zhao are so rich! Can you build a few more luxurious palaces? Other than that! To hint at him! Let him make the mausoleum more luxurious! Nima Di! I don't believe it? How much tax did Bai Gyu's death hang give him for a year? Let them Zhao Guofu flow oil? Do! ”

Seeing that King Wei Hui looked like he was going to make trouble, the people Bai Gui bought were secretly happy in their hearts.

Nima Di! You've fallen in love with Bai Gui's way!

Bai Gui is still a cow! He knew that the Lord was greedy for cheap timber! Hey!

Outcome! The first batch of timber delivered was bribed to Zhao Guo. And those courtiers of Wei basically did not get any benefits. Nature! They will regret it afterwards.

But! Before they could regret it, Bai Gui sent a guest again, saying that as long as he continued to clear the customs, the benefits would be great!

"There is too much wood in the Qin Kingdom! As long as you want! I've got it all for you! But! There is one! You can't do business back and forth empty-handed. You have to promise me to bring some goods to the Qin Kingdom! Or! We are in partnership. Good no good? ”

"Partnership?" When the nobles heard this, they agreed.

Their status is low, and if King Wei Hui blames it, they can't afford it. I had to say, "As long as you don't overdo it, it's okay to bring some small things!" ”

"Let's bring some salt!"

"Salt?"

"I am in the salt business, and our Qi country trafficked salt and trafficked it to Qin. You've probably heard! The people of Qin can't afford to eat salt! There are only two ways for the people of Qin to eat salt: one! Imported from the Chu side. Two! Imported from the southwest mountains.

The salt imported from the state of Chu is sea salt. And the salt imported from the southwest is well salt. No matter which side it is imported, it is expensive.

The people of Chu know that the people of Qin can't eat salt, so! The merchants raised the price of salt, saying that it would cost them a lot to buy sea salt from Wuyue, so they would sell it at this price.

The transportation cost of well salt imported from the southwest mountains is inherently high. And! The quality of the salt is not good either! So! If I transport salt from Qi Country, I will definitely be able to make money! ”

Qi was the salt producing area of the Zhou Dynasty, and in the past, the people of Zhou ate Qi salt. Later, the princes fought for hegemony, and the salt road was blocked. Other than that! Qi also started a monopoly. Salt! It has become a pillar industry of Qi country.

As Baekyu expected, with the first there was a second time. The first time was salt trafficking, and the second time it wasn't necessarily salt. The point is not what to traffick, but! Can the checkpoints of Wei be cleared?

As long as Wei clears customs, everything will be easy.

As long as Wei Guo agrees to clear the customs, the staff who manage the checkpoint below will be better to pay bribes. First bribe the main leaders, and then eradicate the dissidents below. And then! The levels are nothing more than nothing.

There is no need for Bai Gui to make any further arrangements, and the shopkeepers in charge below all know that bribery must not be stopped. If Wei wants to let his guard down, he must continue to pay bribes. Let others receive bribes every once in a while, and they will let you do it.

"I didn't expect it! The bamboo slips of the Qin State are so luxurious? Qin State! It's really a lot of good stuff! ”

King Wei Hui looked at the bamboo slips that Qin Guo had bribed, and couldn't help but praise them.

"Later! We want the bamboo slips of the Qin State! All stay, in our Wei country! Hey! Anyway, it doesn't cost money! ”

Looking at the natural pattern behind the bamboo slips, King Wei Hui couldn't put it down.

These natural patterns, in all sorts of ways, are more natural than those drawn by the best painters. It's true! Ingenious and ingenious!

Touch it with your hand and it will be as smooth as a mirror. Originally! It was painted with a layer of clear paint.

Marquis Zhao Cheng got the good wood presented by the Wei State, and under the persuasion of the envoys, he really moved his mind to build a large number of buildings and build a luxurious palace! It's true! There are cheap and don't take advantage of the bastard!

When the time was ripe, Bai Gui's people took advantage of King Wei Hui's inattention and smuggled copper and other materials for making weapons in one fell swoop.

In order to prevent accidents, Qin Xiaogong and Shang Ying personally went into battle and secretly sent a death squad to the front line. In the event of an accident, go straight to war, and grab the materials you need.

Outcome! Everything went exceptionally well!

The leader in charge of the checkpoint was successfully bought by Bai Gui's caravan.

"It's okay! Right now! The people on the level are all my people! All suspicious people, I sent them away! ”
