Bai Gui lived in the second room of the wife room in Kunshan for a few days, accompanying his wife and children. And then! So he went to the state of Wei. After finishing the things that required him to come forward in person, he went to the state of Chu.

Although the wife of the second room is not in good health, when the husband comes, he is still enthusiastic and takes the initiative to live a married life.

Bai Gui couldn't bear to be that her, but in order to meet her spiritual needs, he still patiently accompanied her. Strange too? After doing that, her body was a little stronger.

Maybe? Is it that she is in a good mood and is back to the light, right?

Seeing that his wife liked it, he stayed for two more days and tried to give her spiritual satisfaction.

The last time he went to Chu State, because he was too busy, he didn't accompany Chu State's wife. So! This time, he went to accompany his wife and children.

There are lessons from Baishan and Bai Xue, and Bai Gui is also worried about where the sons and daughters of Chu will run away from home.

The sons and daughters of the State of Chu are all members of the royal family, and they have always lived in the capital of the State of Chu and lived a luxurious aristocratic life. He is very worried that these children will not be able to adapt to society when they grow up, and their ability to survive will be low.

He wanted to take them out to experience and see the world.

But! The wife and family of Chu State are dead or alive. for fear that he would take his children away. If that's the case? Their original purpose of marrying the "princess" to him was frustrated.

At the beginning, Chu State forcibly married the fake princess to him, which was to coerce and manipulate him in disguise, and let him do things for Chu State.

And the wife of Chu State did not listen to him, and was unwilling to leave Chu State, unwilling to leave the capital, unwilling to leave the royal family, and unwilling to give up the luxurious aristocratic life.

Therefrom! The sons and daughters of Bai Gui Chu were taken care of by the royal family of Chu State.

Right now! For the sake of his wife and children, he didn't dare to refuse what the people of Chu asked him to do.

The investment in the Chu State was so wasted, and the profits were all decided by the nobles of the Chu State. You will accept as much as people tell you.

Other than that! If people give more, you have to use your brain, think about whether they are testing you?

If they're tempting you! You have to quickly take out the excess profits and give them back. That's the only way! to show your sincerity.

In the state of Chu, Baigui's industry was mainly mining plus metal processing. He invested, and the nobles of the Chu State provided resources. And then! The distribution of profits was decided by the nobles of the Chu State.

Minerals belong to the nobles of Chu State, and you can't mine them without the nodding and consent of the nobles, backed by your back.

Minerals are strategic materials and the lifeblood of the country. So! Profit is conceivable.

But! Due to the corruption of the aristocracy, most of the profits went into the pockets of the nobles and were used for the luxurious life of the nobles. Only a few entered the pockets of the kings of Chu as "national taxes".

And also! The state of Chu did not make good use of mineral resources to monopolize and strengthen the state of Chu. But! Under the behind-the-scenes means of the aristocracy, important minerals were secretly sold to the princes of the world.

To know! The state of Chu has a large land area, rich in mineral resources, and is also very developed in science and technology. There are many minerals, which are only available in the Chu State, and they were also the first to be developed by the Chu State. If the Chu State monopolizes it, the other vassal states in the Great Zhou world will lag behind for an unknown number of years.

But! The nobles of the Chu State were so corrupt that they dared to sell anything for their personal interests and to maintain a luxurious aristocratic life.

They not only secretly resold the rare ores of the Chu State, but also resold the scientific and technological achievements.

What were the scientific and technological achievements at that time?

No need to talk nonsense! It's smelting technology.

At that time, with the financial support of Bai Gui, the state of Chu mastered a lot of ore smelting technology.

But! The nobles of the Chu State had no concept of the state, the concept of group, and the concept of business at all, and sold everything for their own selfishness.

These nobles are all Bai Gui's cousins-in-law.

It's a cousin-in-law, not his real brother-in-law, but his brother-in-law's own brother-in-law.

Bai Gui Chu's wife, because of her beauty, was recruited into the royal family and became the "princess" of Chu State. In fact! The princess is just a gimmick to confuse you with her beauty.

But! This wife loves him very much, and she loves him sincerely.

She is a descendant of nobles who have lost their power, and her ancestors were once nobles of the Chu State. Her ancestors used to live a life of luxury. She is a salted fish turned over, an ugly duckling turned into a white swan, and she lived a luxurious life in her impression. So! Where would she give up?

The children of Chu are the same, they grew up in the aristocratic life circle since they were children, and they have never suffered hardships or seen human suffering. You instill in them the right way in the world, the real life in the world, and they don't believe it.

"How is that possible? At least! Our Chu country is not like this! Father! You just coax us! On the streets of the capital of our Chu State, it's good? Safe, huh? ”

"Daddy! War! That's someone from another princely state who has a problem with his head! What kind of war? ”

Later, when the children grew up, they were instilled with Taoist ideas and other correct thoughts, and they believed and understood a little. When you tell them how dangerous the outside world is, they believe it.

It took a lot of thought and tongue for Bai Gui to convince the wife of the Chu State.

The current wife still wants to live a luxurious aristocratic life. But! I don't want to live in the capital of Chu anymore.

Because! She felt that her cousins, elders and others were using her beauty to confuse her husband, use her to manipulate her husband, tightly control her husband, earn money for them, and ensure that they continue to live a luxurious and even absurd life.

There have been many times when she has been threatened by her cousins and elders. No! It's a hint! If she doesn't cooperate, if Bai Gui doesn't cooperate, the consequences may be.

With this insecurity, she completely woke up.

Right now! They all want their children to grow up quickly and understand their thoughts. And then! persuade them to leave the capital and hide in the mountains to live.

It is a headache for Bai Kei and Tsumamuro! The sons and daughters who grew up in the aristocratic life circle have developed prejudices and accepted and identified with the current way of life.

You want them to give up their current life and go to seclusion in the mountains. You want to tell them who who is terrible! These so-called uncles, grandfathers or cousins, will turn their faces at any time.

"How is that possible? Grandpa, uncle, cousin, they were very nice to us! Give me back the red envelope! ”

"Yes! Father! Mother! What nonsense are you all talking about? You guys? This jade pendant of mine was given to me by my uncle! ”

"Uncle also gave me a jade pendant!"

"Uncle still gave me a lot of delicious snacks?"

"I like to eat my aunt's osmanthus cake the most!"

Seeing that the children all trusted those people, Bai Gui was so angry that he scolded in his heart: One day, Daddy, I offend them, and they will poison you! What about osmanthus cake? That's poison!

Now! The children have grown up, and Bai Gui wants to persuade them again, so that the eldest son and eldest daughter can understand the sinister nature of the world. Don't distrust others and reject them thousands of miles away. Don't trust a person easily, and don't trust a person absolutely.
