My husband is really rich!

Not generally rich!

Listening to what the old man said, he can prevent all the vassal states from starting wars. Especially in a land country like Chu, he can.

At that time, the state of Chu was the most powerful country in terms of comprehensive national strength among the seven princes.

The old man can prevent the Chu State from starting a war, it can be seen! How much wealth did he have in the state of Chu?

It is conceivable that in the territory of Chu, there are his grain and oil stores, wine stores, inns, jewelry stores and other commercial outlets everywhere, and it is very likely that he owns factories. Otherwise? He could not monopolize the economy of the state of Chu. If he could not monopolize the economy of the Chu State, he would not be able to prevent the Chu State from waging war.

Zhuangzi suddenly opened his mouth a little stupidly and looked at the old man.

"You don't believe it, do you? You? ”

Seeing Zhuangzi's appearance, the old man picked up the wine glass and took a sip by himself. Putting the wine glass on the table, he got serious again.

"The country of Chu is my birthplace! After I resigned from the state of Wei, I went to the state of Chu with all my possessions. I first bought and sold to do a small business, the people of Chu were relatively gentle, and the business was easy to do, and soon I saved a lot of money. Afterward! I secretly opened a copper mine in the state of Chu and accumulated a lot of wealth.

Later, because the private copper mine was exposed, he fled from the Chu State. But! I already have a lot of contacts in the Chu State. Those people didn't gobble up my money, but! He asked me to go back to business. Such! I returned to the state of Chu and engaged in business activities in secret. Нёǐуапｇｅ.сОМ

Anyway! At that time, most of my money was left in the Chu State and could not be transferred, and it was only in desperation that I partnered with these people to do business. But! These people are also righteous enough. They are all truly Confucian. Confucian people are good at this one, loyalty! Diehards! I come up with ideas and money behind the scenes, and they operate in the front office.

That's it! I have done business all over the Chu country, all walks of life. And because these people are interesting enough, they don't mean to swallow up my money. When the war came, I transferred my money and wealth in the Chu State by selling food, iron tools, horses, chariots, etc. And then! I returned to Wei and used the same method to spread out the business in Wei.

And then later! I quickly spread my business in Korea, Zhao, and Yan, and Qi was the last vassal state. The commerce of the other small princes in the country is almost monopolized by me. As soon as my money comes in, I can have a full monopoly.

The Qin State was too poor to enter because of the repeated wars. Later, because of Wei Ying's change, he couldn't do business there. So! In the Qin Kingdom, I had almost no business at all. But! During the war, I also had contact with the Qin side and sold some military supplies to them......"

To what extent is the old man's cattle, he has reached the point of mining minerals in partnership with the vassal states. Minerals are originally the national property of the vassal states, but your country has no money to develop them, and it is useless to have mineral resources. And also! Even if you have the money to exploit it, you don't have the technology and the cost of smelting, you can't fully exploit it.

The old man reached this level, and he cooperated with the vassal states to mine minerals and smelt minerals. When the vassal states were in dire need of money, when they sold the ore, they could buy the mined ore into their own hands and resell it to other vassal states. Anyway! He has money in his hands and can play as much as he wants.

In particular, mineral resources, especially iron ore and copper ore, were military supplies at that time, and they were even more valuable, which can be said to be priceless.

All these operations do not require him to come forward in person, and someone has come forward for him. As long as there are interests, there will always be corrupt officials in the government, and they will maneuver around for you and do things seamlessly.

And he! As long as you raise a group of thugs under your command, a group of sworn friends is enough. Trick me! The consequence is death! Do business according to the contract, win-win, happy cooperation!

During the Warring States period, countless people lived for the sake of living, and as long as you gave their lives and gave their families the lives, they also gave you their lives and let you dominate.

So! Under the old man's men, there are countless people who work for him.

"Son-in-law! My husband has a showdown with you! The old man is sincere, helping you to dominate the world? What else are you worried about? It's all a family, what else are you worried about? ”

Seeing that Zhuangzi was still there, he said, "These are absolutely secrets. Even the people outside the door, I didn't tell them the whole story. It's not that I'm worried about them, I'm afraid that these people won't be able to hide their words. If it is revealed, there will be a commercial blockade in the Great Zhou Dynasty, confiscating or freezing all commercial property, and my husband will be bankrupt. ”

As he spoke, Baekyu looked towards the door with some trepidation.

It is indeed the case, if it is known that he has so much wealth, and all the business institutions in the world are blocked and investigated, it is possible to find clues. Not to mention that the world's commerce is all his, except for the state-run ones, at least one-tenth of the remaining one-tenth is the secret property of his surname Bai.

Almost all of the commercial organizations that operate across borders are run by him in partnership with high-ranking officials and aristocrats.

"You, you, you? Father-in-law? Zhuangzi calmed down, and asked with a trembling voice, "Do you want so much property?" You? How much can you spend in your lifetime alone? You? Do you give it all to your children? ”

"For children?" Bai Gui was surprised, and then said, "Yes! To the children! Not to whom do you give your children? Can I still take it underground? I? ”

"Lord Yue!" Zhuangzi said again: "You are wrong in this way! And! It's a big mistake! ”

"How could I be wrong? I? Bai Gui glanced at his son-in-law with his eyes and thought: You kid is going to give my father-in-law a political lesson again? Hey!

"I think!" Zhuangzi said very seriously: "Children have long hands and feet, and their lives should be decided by themselves. If they live on the inheritance of their father's property, what is the meaning of their lives? Isn't it? Everything you eat and use is not created by your own labor, so what's the point of living like that? If! ”

Zhuangzi said in an accentuated tone: "What if the property you gave them was lost suddenly, or unexpectedly? Especially in these troubled times, this is likely to happen. When the war comes, everything is gone, and there is a possibility that there will be no life, right?

And also! Born in troubled times! Everyone is living a hard life, your children and grandchildren inherit the property of their fathers, and if they do not work hard, but live better than others, they will suffer unjustified disasters, and some people will not accept and attack you! So? When you lose everything......"

Zhuangzi spread his hands and continued: "So! I don't think it's the best way to give your children and grandchildren property! ”

"So? What's the best way to do it? ”

"Teach them to survive, teach them the skills to survive! And not endless wealth. ”

Teach a man to fish, not to teach him to fish.
