Chapter 109: The Big Boss Behind the Scenes
In order to facilitate the price increase and not leave any troubles, Bai Gui asked his brother-in-law to act as the big boss of the grassland, and all the "decision-making" was up to him.
This big boss came from the prairie and has a bad temper, so he doesn't come out to meet people much. And also! If something happens, you won't be able to find him.
He is a steppe man, and no matter how much the princes and kings of the Great Zhou Dynasty compare with each other, there is no way to be a steppe man. Not to mention the princes and kings of the Great Zhou, what about the Son of Heaven of the Great Zhou? Even in the Western Zhou Dynasty in the past, as well as in history, the Chinese people did not have the method of the grassland people.
The steppe people hide in the depths of the grassland or the desert, and you can't find them. So! What can you do with them?
If you are in the role of Bai Gui, or as someone in the caravan, it is easy for accidents to happen. People who know who you are will get you in trouble. Especially the princes and kings, they will find fault and kill your whole family, your whole clan, even those who know you, and force you to submit.
Some people, in order to achieve their goals, will not only punish your whole family, but also your whole clan. If you don't comply, they'll punish people you know or people who know you. Kill! Kill so much that you have to give in. Otherwise! You can't bear to see innocent people die because of you.
Some people, in order to achieve their goals, are as cruel as the fears of cloth in modern society.
Of course! The dinophobes in modern society have learned from the ancients.
The reason why Bai Gui's later wife was kept secret was to prevent this hand. That's why! His daughter Baimei later became her own son with Shang Ying, also secretly. Otherwise! After Shang Ying was killed by the Qin State, he did not even have a descendant.
Imagine! How unconvincing will it be that people who have made such great contributions to human history and Chinese history have not left descendants, but bad people have descendants to reproduce in the world?
Later, Shang Ying also saw this, and also secretly transferred his other newborn son and hid it in the folk of Shangzhou, leaving him another line.
Otherwise! They were all killed, and none of them remained.
Bai Gui's third uncle is also the third brother of the sheep girl, he is a very shrewd grassland man. It was precisely because of his shrewdness that Bai Gui brought him to Zhongshan Kingdom.
At the beginning, this grassland man was not used to acting, and he didn't like the fake set of the Zhou people. But under Bai Gui's continuous brainwashing, coupled with what he saw and heard in Zhongshan Kingdom, he quickly adapted to the new environment.
In this deceitful society, can you be honest? Can you still maintain the temperament of a steppe man? No way! When you come to Zhoudi, you have to blend in with the local customs and live like a local.
Go out for three or five miles, and there is a rural style in various places. If you don't fit into the local "rustic style", you are different! You can't fit in with the locals, you can't survive here.
The third brother-in-law is the "fake boss" behind the scenes, and the real big boss is Bai Gui. And Bai Gui himself does not follow his third brother-in-law every day to give him ideas. In the matter of Zhongshan Kingdom, the third brother-in-law is a boss on the surface, but the real master is still the shopkeeper of the warehouse.
Other than that! On the side of Zhongshan Kingdom, there is also an alliance of shopkeepers. The so-called "alliance", that is, all the treasurers in charge of the affairs of Zhongshan State, can make suggestions and discuss specific affairs. If you have something difficult, you can ask someone else. And then! Let's figure out how to do it together, and finally choose the best way.
The shopkeeper taught the third brother-in-law how to speak behind the scenes, and he was personally responsible for the usual affairs and the superficial affairs, and the third brother-in-law was just a name.
After arranging the affairs here and training the third brother-in-law, Bai Gui is ready to leave.
In the Great Zhou world, there are many things that need to be done by him. There are many things that still need to be done by him personally.
For example! If you are pregnant.
has a few wives, and wants to conceive a baby. So! He had to go there himself. No one else can help with this. If someone else sows seeds, it won't be his Bai Gui's baby. That's someone else's seed, a wild seed.
In the old days, Paikyu-senpai didn't know the regularity of a woman's pregnancy. If men and women want to conceive a baby, they only know "papapa". It is believed that the more times "pop pap" and the more seeds are sown, there will always be a seed that will sprout.
And now! Bai Gui has been reborn through the crossing, don't be so troublesome. He knows the law of a woman's pregnancy, so! It can be done in one step, and the sowing work can be completed in one go.
Since someone is going to get pregnant, isn't it easy?
Now the five sisters of Xuelian are all seven or eight months pregnant, so they don't let him touch them at all, and he doesn't dare to touch them. Although he had five wives, he did not have a "sexual" life. So! He also wants to go to Zhao and "snap" with his wife who wants to get pregnant.
In Zhao State! He also has a wife. It's just that! People from the outside don't know. Even the personal bodyguards around him, few people know.
Other than that! He was also worried about Bai Mei's situation.
Due to the backward transmission of information in ancient times, he still hasn't inquired about it, how is Bai Mei, the eldest daughter of Bai Gui's predecessors, doing now? Was it released by Wei Jun? Still is? Was killed by Wei Jun?
If you put it out? Did you follow his instructions and take Baimei to live in seclusion in Kunshan?
After the last assassination, Bai Gui asked people to prepare, and took Bai Mei to Minshan or Kunshan to live in seclusion at any time. The consideration at that time was! In order not to arouse the suspicion of Wei Jun and the outside world, Bai Mei cannot be taken away directly for the time being.
So! He told his men to find a good place to live in seclusion. After finding a good place, it is not a matter of a day or two to build a house or something. And because of this! He didn't ask about it again.
Right now! Something happened to Bai Mei, and his affairs on the grassland could not be hidden, and sooner or later it would be spread to Zhou Di and Wei Jun's ears. If Wei Jun knew that he was not dead, he would not know how to roar. Even! In a fit of rage, he will attack his family.
On this day, Bai Guizheng was about to leave for Zhao Kingdom, but an uninvited guest came and directly found Yinshan Town. He said that he was a secret envoy of Wei and wanted to talk to Bai Gui about important matters. Bai Gui observed behind the scenes for a long time, but he didn't recognize this person. Is he skeptical? Is this man here to deceive?
He has been an official in the officialdom of Wei for so many years and knows many people. As Wei Jun's secret envoy, he should have known him.
But! It's a relief to think about. With Wei Jun's suspicion, there are not many old people around. It is generally the people who are used by him, and it will not be long before they are either killed or no longer reused.
"Let Bai Gui prepare five thousand horses for me! Hurry up and send me to Wei! Otherwise! ...... "That means: Otherwise, there will be no good fruit for you to eat!"
