Chapter 960: Zhuangzi took the initiative to ask for silver

Under the persuasion of Zhuangzi, King Wei Hui had no choice but to nod and agree. Eighty-one? Middle?? Text ≈≥≥.≠

What other way can there be besides this method?

If the title deed is not handed over to the Qin state, the Qin state will only expand eastward endlessly. They take the land and then force you to surrender the title deed.

Just like the Wei State back then, he defeated you first, and then forced you to take the initiative to hand over the land deed. If you don't want to pay the title deed, then pay the silver!

It was this that the Wei State of the year started and became the overlord of the world.

Because there is land and silver, so! The state of Wei became stronger and stronger.

Of course! There is another one, which is to have a strong, victorious army.

Although the current Wei State was defeated, it was not yet time to take the initiative to hand over the title deed. Under the persuasion of Zhuangzi, King Wei Hui decided: when the opportunity came, he would fight a big battle with Qin. If you can win the war, you can negotiate terms with Qin State. Or! Wait for Qin to send envoys to force him to hand over the land deed and negotiate with him. Wait until this time, and then negotiate the conditions, and then promise to hand over the title deed.

There is no way! As Zhuangzi said, if there is another war, the Wei State will really not be able to keep it. The current Wei State needs to have a respite for ten or eight years, and when the new population is fifteen or sixteen years old, it will be able to have a new source of soldiers every year. At that time, the state of Wei could be reinvigorated again.

Although King Wei Hui was reluctant in his heart, reason told him that if you didn't take the title deed in exchange for those ten or eight years of peace, there would be no chance for you to breathe at all.

The new king of Qin, the young man named Yingsi, was not an ordinary young man. People have taken a fancy to you, knowing that your comprehensive national strength is declining rapidly, and there is no supply of troops to replenish you, and they are constantly persecuting you.

Although the Qin State and the Wei State were at war, just like the battle between the Qi State and the Wei State in Maling, killing 10,000 enemies and losing 3,000 themselves, but the Qin State had the ability to lose 3,000 itself.

Furthermore! The state of Qin was in alliance with the states of Chu, Zhao, and Korea. Killing you 10,000 and losing 3,000 is just one aspect, but your Wei State is at war with many vassal states. Sometimes! Facing the ground is the coalition forces. So! The Qin state did not lose 3,000 of its own, while the Wei state lost far more than 10,000.

If this formula continues, Wei will not be able to hold out for long.

So! Wei really can't fight anymore.

But? Wei used to be a hegemonic country, and the surrounding vassal states of all sizes were offended, and you can't do it if you want to fight without fighting, and if you want to make peace with others, people don't want to. The surrounding vassal states, large and small, are all in the ground, and they are all taking advantage of the danger of others. The more you can't afford to fight and don't dare to fight, the more people will come to you to fight.

It was in this situation of internal and external troubles that King Wei Hui accepted Zhuangzi's suggestion and was willing to hand over the title deed to the Qin State and try to make friends with the Qin State. As long as the Qin State is leveled and does not fight with this strong enemy, the Chu State, the Zhao State, and Korea will be easy to deal with.

Although the state of Chu is strong, it has a national border span with the state of Wei, and it is not good for the state of Chu to fight. So! A direct war with the state of Chu is unlikely.

And against Zhao and South Korea, with the current ability of Wei State, it can still compete with each other. So! If Zhao and South Korea do not ally with other countries, no one will dare to single out Wei.

Needless to say, the relationship with the State of Qi. Since the Battle of Maling, the Qi State has suffered a small loss of 3,000 yuan, and has also fought several battles with the Chu State and the Yue State. So! It is also very unlikely that Wei will go to war with Qi.

Zhuangzi asked King Wei Hui to hand over the title deed to Qin in exchange for a few years of peace. Hui Shi couldn't even think that Zhuangzi would come up with this idea?

Seeing Zhuangzi persuading King Wei Hui, Hui Shi not only did not dare to speak, but was also afraid that he would be killed.

If King Wei Hui was suspicious, it was he who asked Zhuangzi to say so. So! His birthday is coming. If King Wei Hui suspected that he had received some benefit from the Qin State, it would be strange that he would not die.

Because! Some time ago, he sent an envoy to the Qin State and conveyed the wishes of the Qin State, hoping that the Wei State would hand over the land deed. Then! King Wei Hui was so angry that he didn't dare to finish his words.

But Hui Shi didn't expect that when Zhuangzi said this, King Wei Hui's face was ugly, but he listened to it. Moreover! Accepted.

This, this, this? How is this possible?

Let's be honest! Not only did he Hui Shi dare not talk about the land deed anymore, but no one in the other officials in the Wei court, including those hereditary aristocratic officials of the Wei State, dared to submit the land deed to King Wei Hui in exchange for peace.

There is only Zhuangzi this stupid comparison! How dare you say that!

But when the dust had settled and King Wei Hui rewarded Zhuangzi with silver, Hui Shi woke up: Zhuangzi is not stupid! Zhuangzi is a great talent! He's an unofficial, he's a bystander, and he's a spectator who can submit a title deed.

Zhuangzi's submission of the title deed is fine! And as an official of the Wei State, you can't mention this matter! If you put it forward, it is obviously correct, King Wei Hui suspects you of collaborating with the enemy, and you have nowhere to reason if you kill you.

"Give me the money! I want broken silver! Seeing that King Wei Hui ordered his eunuchs to prepare a reward for him, Zhuangzi said anxiously.

"You want broken silver?" King Wei Hui was not only not angry, but also cared. He was very satisfied with Zhuangzi's honesty.

On the previous two occasions, Zhuangzi did not accept gifts from King Wei Hui. For the first time, Zhuangzi only symbolically received a little. The second time, Zhuangzi only accepted silver and silk thread, and refused to accept everything else. And this time! It was Zhuangzi who took the initiative to ask for it.

"I don't want brocade, I don't want gold, I don't want jade! We poor people don't want to spend it. Oh! If you have silk thread, give me some! My wife can embroider, and the embroidery is similar to that of the embroiderers in the court. Zhuangzi added.

King Wei Hui sighed heavily and said, "Why do you have to live a poor life? You? Sir, you are a great talent, and you can live the life of a superior person! You can live like a nobleman, and the widow can give you a fief and inherit the title from generation to generation. You? ”

"I want to live like the broad masses of the people! After all, the aristocracy of the world is a minority, and the broad masses of the people are the majority! I'm going to live like most people. ”

"Alas! Depend on you! Depend on you! Eunuch! King Wei Hui beckoned again: "Break the silver for the gentleman, and use everything else." Oh! Can you get silk threads? Give him a box of silk threads! ”

"Silk thread?" The eunuch was a little embarrassed.

Because! This is not the capital, everything is inconvenient. Let alone! Silk thread is used by the upper class, which is a high-end consumer product, and it is not easy to buy in general places. But! The eunuch did not dare to speak out. With his means, it is not difficult to get a box of silk threads, as long as he is given time.

"The widow can't bear you!" King Wei Hui sighed sincerely.
